Limit what aditional administrators can do
It would be useful to have options for what additional administrators can do within the panel. For example, I run hosting as part of my IT company and normally it's me that does all the work in Panel, however it is often useful to have one of my staff to do some admin tasks but I don't necessarily want that person to be able to perform all tasks such as changing critical server settings.

This functionality was added in Plesk Obsidian RTM release. We suggest you upgrade to the latest version and check it out.

Limit outgoing mail messages
http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=265576
Please add new feature to limit the number of outgoing emails Yes this is a very bad that we cannot limit outgoing emails!
One of our hosting customers was a spammer. Because of their spamming our IP was blacklisted.
We removed the blacklist and suspended the spammer, but during that time our other customers were very upset, their emails weren't being received...and new customers of ours couldn't receive download letters sent from us, it was a terrible problem! Then they would complain but support tickets weren't received, either!

Direct or faster access to phpMyAdmin
Currently it's too difficult to login to the phpMyAdmin interface. Users have to login in on plesk, choose their domain (if they have more than one), go to website & domains, select the databse page, then select the database they want to use and now they can finally open the webadmin. Too much steps! And if the session ran out, you have to do all these steps again.
The fasted way would be to allow that users can open the phpMyAdmin URL without loggin in to Plesk and only use their credetials for the database. I could understand if that…

Redirect HTTP to HTTPS for Plesk Admin Interface
It would be really nice to have Users directly redirected to SSL/https when calling Plesk with http.
Parallels had tried this in the past, but it never worked for Mozilla Firefox. An universal solution would really be good.

(De-)Activate mail service per domain ONLY

Easier Navigation
Plesk has gone many steps back in terms of User Experience n in Plesk 10/11.
1) ever changing names of terms like Plesk client/domain, subscription, plans, customers, and now webspaces(!!!!) has made it more confusing than ever for the customer and the Provider to understand its basic functions.
2) user fewer horizontal tabs. we dont need all those tabs in Plesk!! Tabs: Home, Users, Webspaces (at least) must be removed asap. Customer needs to access immediately the list of domains he is hosting. PERIOD.

indicate password strengh or acceptance during "reset password" process
There are many customers complaining, they have to try several passwords during the password-reset process, before one is accepted. There is no visual indicator if the typed password fits the safety regulations.
"Inside" plesk, the password strengh is indicated when they change theirs plesk- , FTP- or e-mail password. Why not during the reset-process?
The highlight would be an indicator, that permanently shows if the typed password is strong enough or has to be stronger (with a tooltip/hint, what specifications has to be met or which kind of character is missing).
