  2. Ability to store domain mail content in the domain folder

    Please add the ability to store domain mail content in the domain folder like in cPanel /home/$user/mail/domain.tld/emailuser/

    In this case, it will be possible manually create a backup for website and mail content just by copying /home/$user/ folder and after restore this folder on the destination server.

    Copy-transfer-insert operations on emails are frequently done, but are a flawed and unsafe method to migrate emails as just one single update (e.g. an incoming mail or an edit on either source or target) while the copying process is not yet completed can break indexes and render the target copy useless. 

    Providing direct access to mail files from a web space account will also have end users experiment with the files directly, which again will cause a high number of support cases with providers who lease webspace to their users.

    Instead, please consider using the free "Site Import" extension which includes a "Mail Import" function, too. With that you can very easily and in a perfectly safe way migrate mailboxes between servers without the need to use a separate migration tool.

    The request did not become popular anyway, so we must decline it.

  3. Database user permission is set according to the database server type

    Migrator should take into account the database server type (remote or local) and change user permissions accordingly. Currently, users that was set on the source with permissions to connect locally to a local database are migrated to the target with the same permissions, despite the fact, that on the target database server is set as a remote. That leads to inability to connect to remote database for that user on the source after migration and migrator change the permission accordingly.

    Actually, there should not be any manually added included configuration files in that directory. Instead, custom directives for Nginx or Apache should be added to the "Additional Apache and Nginx Directives" fields in the "Apache and Nginx Settings" dialog.

    This feature request has only received a very few votes through many years. For this reason we must decline it.

  12. Allow migrating Address Books from the supported webmail clients using Plesk Migrator

    At this moment, address/contact books are not migrated to the target server. In order to do it, it is required to perform manual operations, which differ between webmail clients and are rather complicated in some cases. Please, consider adding this functionality to Plesk Migrator.

    The data was not migrated because Horde, for example, does not provide any tools to import/export these settings, and the Horde or RoundCube database format differs significantly from one version to another version. As result, migration of this data can’t be automated. There are can be serious problems when you restore Roundcube/Horde database from the old version to the new/updated Roundcube/Horde version on Plesk server.

    Unfortunately, we have to close your request, because over the years it has not become quite popular for further implementation.

  16. plesk migration only Synchronize already migrated domains

    On huge migrations that have been delayed for days we need perform manyal sync of mail boxes, files and databases to be able all info is in sync before change IP's or DNS.
    This feature is already present in Plesk 12.x, but only as option for current migration. Please, could you take consideration add
    "Synchronize to check if there are any updates for **************************** components." as stand alone option to keep in sync already completed migrations?
    This feature could also match partially: #5284370-synchronize-plesk-servers
    and could fit needed by other users like: https://talk.plesk.com/threads/plesk-panel-migration-manager-is-there-a-way-to-do-an-incremental-resync-after-initial-transfer.333719/

  17. staging

    Please provide a way to run a script after you do copy of databases / files so you can easily search and replace connection strings, urls etc.

    It would be easy to implement for you, and a cool as hell feature to have in plesk.

    At the moment I need to do this every time I copy between environments.

  18. Allow restoration of manaully migrated data in new Plesk Migrator extension

    The old Migration and Transfer agent to migrate data that had already been created by using the PleskX.pl migration script by selecting the option in the migration wizard.

    The new Plesk Migrator does not support this feature thus the manual method of migration is no longer available in Plesk 12.5 (as per below KB artilcle):
