Add possibility to set "Can be used to log in to Plesk" unchecked by default during mail account creation
Creating mail account In Plesk panel Domains > example.com > Mail accounts > Create Email Address has an option "Can be used to log in to Plesk" which is checked by default.
There can be a situation when you can by mistake leave the option checked but you don't plan to permit to log in to Plesk with created mail account.
So it would be convenient to have this option unchecked by default.4 votesLogging in to Plesk as the mailbox user will only allow that user to edit his own settings of that mailbox, e.g. the password. The effect of this option is marginal. We are also only talking about a preset change from "checked" to "unchecked". It's only a mouseclick to uncheck the box, and when the default is changed to "unchecked" other users will complain that they now need to check this box each time they add a mailbox.
As this feature did not become popular and as the setting is already optional we must decline it.

Disable PHP's open.base_dir restriction by default
Every configured hosting/website gets their proper own user with their own permissions. If you run your website with the PHP-FPM handler, the processes properly run with this very user.
Why is there still open.base_dir restrictions applied by default? I don't really see the point.Why am I asking? Enabling open.basedir has a massively (!) negative impact on performance. PHP's internal realpath cache is automatically disabled when open.basedir is activated which slows down all the file operation calls tremendously.
As the user permissions are properly set up, this is imho a missed opportunity for free performance gains.Sources:
- Does…
4 votesPlesk acknowledges that there has been a discussion in the PHP community to remove open_basedir from newer PHP versions, but even PHP developers came to the conclusion that it should not be removed. Yes, there are performance impacts, but with all types of security software like network filters, e.g. iptables (and Fail2Ban log analyzer), ModSecurity and antivirus solutions this is just normal and expected. Plesk puts security first, and if there are options to make a site more secure, we'll always prefer these options. open_basedir may not be the best security feature, but it adds some security. This request has not gained much popularity during the past years either. For these reasons we must decline it.

A feature that enables storing logs, complaint and non-complaint to GDPR in Windows.
The idea is to have non-compliant GDPR logs so debugging can be done and compliant GDPR logs that don't contain IPs for example.
4 votesIt’s pointless. Once we have non-compliant GDPR logs, it makes no sense to have compliant GDPR logs.

Calendar Extension
Add a CalDav Calender Server with WebCalendar and Share
4 votesThere are no plans that Plesk will provide this extension, because it is not about controlling a service on the server. But Plesk features a free extension API where you can add functions to Plesk yourself: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/extensions-guide/plesk-extensions-in-a-nutshell.76331/

Filter POST and PUT requests, but keep GET available
It is needed to block PUT and POST requests from specific country, but keep GET available. For example, I do not want China to send POST and PUT to my server, but they are free to send GET in order to receive website's content.
4 votesThis feature request did not become popular over many years. We must decline it. It is also very specific and maybe directed in fighting malicious traffic? Instead, we suggest using https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ext_filter.html to filter requests. We're also working on GeoIP protection which will cover most use cases.

Add an installer for apache solr on tomcat
You have the ability to install Tomcat. It would be cool to have the ability to install the most popular Tomcat web applications such as Apache Solr within the Plesk control panel. Much in the same way you can install multiple versions of php or tomcat, docker etc... Solr would be a great addition.
4 votesSorry, but we are dropped out support of java and Tomcat technology in the latest versions of Plesk due to low demand and resource intensity of development.

NodeJS (Linux): Change App/Doc Root Folder Warnings
Having for example "Document Root: /httpdocs" and "Application Root: /httpdocs/api" (where the NodeJS files are) actually works, only that the files in /httpdocs take precedence. So accessing for example "domain.com/api" from browser did not work as there's index.html in /httpdocs, but it works when tested with Postman.
So, I think the warning text can be changed accordingly.
I don't know what security implications does running both a website on /httpdocs and API on /httpdocs/api have, though.

Function to set automatically or by clicking delete Trash and Spam mails of selected subscriptions
Plesk is easy to use for everyone.
But you can't easily delete the spam mails or trash of all your customers mailboxes.A new feature where you can set: Delete items in Spam older than 90 Days and delete items in trash older than 60 Days for specific subscriptions will be really nice.
...much customers let spam and trash boxes grow up to 5000+ Mails - that's using resources for nothing.
