ActiveSync support on Roundcube and Horde (Push)

Change admin username
It should be possible for the admin user to change his user login name. The name "admin" is not very secure, because it's easiert to hack via brute force. The hackers know, the name is "admin". If the user would be able to change his login name, it would increase the security of Plesk Panel.
559 votesWe have serious doubts this function can really increase server security:
1) Plesk has built-in protection against brute-force on login – it will lock the login form. So no one can try multiple attempts
2) Arbitrary login name adds very little guess-complexity to a proper password. If you have concerns for your login brute-forced – add another 5-7 characters into your password and feel safe.As changed login name is still very likely to be some sort of vocabulary word or derived from your other account name – this function would only give a false sense of better security. Your security strength is in complex password, not in a complex login name. If you have one good password, you don’t need to treat login as your “second password” – one good password is enough.
As for concerns that default password requirement is set in “weak”, that fail2ban module is not…

Create separate Mail and Web Space
Make separate limits on Mail and Web disk spaces, so that hoster could sell one limit for web (i.e. 2Gb) and another limit for mail (i.e. 10x2Gb mailboxes)

Spam configuration per subscription or domain
Now you have two opportunities to set the spamfilter - server-wide or individual. It would be very handy if the admin or the customer could set the spamfilter for the whole subscription or/and for the whole domain.

Supporting SSL resellers
We need to protect with SSL certificates panels resellers. It is currently not possible.
This should be an urgent implementation.
Resellers constantly have the error that the website is not secure.Right now we can only put a SSL to protect the panel. We need to protect the panel for more domains.
Example:
https://domain1.es:8443
https://domain2.es:8443
https://domain3.es:8443etc...
Forgive my translation, I use google translator.

Enable chrooted sftp for more than one user per account
If I use FTP, I can make as many users as I want. For various reasons, using FTP is not optimal at my workplace. I'd like to be able to let each ftp user I create log in with chrooted sftp.
I'm able to modify /etc/passwd and /var/www/vhosts/example.org/etc/passwd to make it work, but doing that manually kind of defeats the point of using a tool like Plesk...
Specifically, I give the ftp user the same home directory, and shell as the initial sftp user has in each passwd file.

Smarthost/External SMTP
It would be nice to have an external SMTP (smarthost) ability for a per-domain basis (most mail services have this)
We use this for external scanning, data leak prevention and more.
Can this be be done?

Add Aliases for Subdomains
You are currently not able to Alias a subdomain through plesk. Instead you must create the subdomain as a primary if you wish to alias it. In many situations it would make sense from an organizational standpoint to keep the subdomain under a main domain while still adding aliases to it. I do not believe this is a technical restriction of the webservers so it would be helpful if plesk allowed you to add aliases to subdomains.

MYSQL Performance Tuning and Monitoring
t would be a good idea to have an SQL section where users can run optimization scripts like MYSQLTUNER etc and enter suggestioned changes in a GUI that directly change the mysql.conf directly and correctly.
An ability to monitor performance and tweak would be ideal, making the task of SQL performance monitoring and tweaking far easier.
Also optimize commands and other tasks could be run for this panel.
as well as optimize and the ability to add it to cron for weekly or monthly.
388 votesIn Plesk Obsidian 18.0.54, published July 18th, 2023, the ability to tune the MySQL/MariaDB server performance was added to Tools & Settings > Performance Booster (under “General Settings”).
Please try it and let us know here what further improvements you would like to see.

Add possibility to change default webmail.<domain> subdomain to custom
At the moment by default any webmail interface is under domain webmail.<domain>
Some people would like to use custom one. For me personally it's important to have this as server-wide setting (I have basic workaround for this - custom domainWebmail.php), but it isn't perfect (many links to webmail service missing, e.t.c.).
And that's why we have plesk - user friendly interface.

Use Lets Encrypt to secure FTPs connections
Hi,
I usually use the ftp.site.com subdomain for the client FTP connections.
And to secure those connections I enabled FTPs. But at this point the users receive a certificate host name mismatch because the FTPs connection is being setup using the VPS Lets Encrypt cert.It would be nice to use the Lets Encrypt certificate service also to secure the FTPs connections.
Thanks!

Support for HTTP/2 on APACHE (only) without using nginx as proxy! And Server Push!
