   5. The callback e-mail used for receiving domains registration statuses from the registry is shown in the E-mail receiving the messages from registry. By default, the plug-in generates this e-mail and creates the mailbox. You can set the other e-mail address, but in this case, you must make sure that this mailbox exists and active and specify this address where needed.
