make SSL Certificates for mail services manageable from Plesk
To change SSL certs for mail services one has to manually change at least three files: (depending on system e.g.)
/etc/postfix/postfix_default.pem
/usr/share/imapd.pem
/usr/share/pop3d.pemThis is very confusion and not very usable, esp. as there are already a number of SSL ways to set certificates in Plesk (per domain, per ID, for the panel, as std. for all domains, ...)
This could be streamlined and a simple tickbox, like 'Set this certificate for mail services' would make the life of administrators much easier!

Increase migration speed
The current Migration Manager (Linux) is painfully slow. A full server migration (+/- 300GB of data) over Gigabit takes more then 12 hours. During this time lots of website will have changed MySQL data getting lost after the migration.
The issue with the migration system in its current state is that if does site-by-site migration. If migrates site A, then goes to site B, then C, etc, etc. Because each site migration consists of a alot of different steps the servers are mostly waiting for each other to finish some process like creating mailboxes.
The load on both the source…
45 votesIn 12.5 we changed from PMM that performed operations step by step to Migrator extension, which performs data transfer in multiple data streams. The feature to make it fully asynchronous operations not only for transfer stage as well as other performance improvements (specifically for Windows migrations) is in the cards.
Please let us know on https://talk.plesk.com if still have problems with migration speed.

FileManager ability to upload file to server by link
In filemanager we have abilities to create empty file and upload file from PC. I want to get ability to set link and upload file to server.

I want to upload it to server directly to save my time and nerves.

not changing event_id for event_handler
Hi
We built some scripts to add some new events by CLI (due it is not possible by XML- API) to our over 70 Plesk installations. We detected, that in several Plesk installations (even with the same Plesk- Version number), the IDs of the events (plesk bin event_handler --list-events) changes. So we can't use a script. We always have to check and fix the "Event" manually. it would be helpfull to use static ids (even for different versions of plesk) or a speaking id (exp. "reseller-limit-changed", "susbscripion-limit-changed")...

Right now it's required to add the passive FTP range in the FTP config and then add another firewall rule to let the clients access it.

Thanks!

“Updates and Upgrades”-Tool (8447) doesn’t work with ECDHE-ECDSA certificate
I changed certificate that secures Plesk. The new certificate is an ECDHE-ECDSA certificate, the default Plesk certificate is an RSA certificate. I’ve noticed that parallelsinstaller is not reachable on port 8447 (after clicking on “Updates and Upgrades” in “Tools & Settings”), in combination with the new ECDHE-ECDSA certificate. parallelsinstaller is started, listen on port 8447, doesn’t write any error to any log file and everything seems to be ok. But the web browsers say “ERRSSLVERSIONORCIPHERMISMATCH” (Vivaldi/Chrome) and “SSLERRORNOCYPHEROVERLAP” (Firefox). No cipher is accepted, I’ve tested all available from OpenSSL.…

Let'sEncrypt Extension for Windows & .NET platform
I've noticed that you have developed an extension for Let'sEncrypt which is working only on Linux edition of Plesk. Why don't you take a look at ACMESharp open source project on Github which has already developed a CLI for windows and .NET?

list the websites that are being deleted when deleting as a confirmation.
Instead of that note that asks if we're sure we want to delete the selected subscriptions or domains, please list what is being deleted as a confirmation so that we're sure. I once accidentally deleted a whole account and had to rebuild it. To this day, I HATE deleting anything for fear that it's doing something that I didn't plan on.
