  1. sort, archive or filter (not spam) email on server directly when received

    I'm using different (imap) clients on different devices to read emails. Many of them can be sorted / filtered / archived in specific subfolders by subject, sender or similar.
    Most - but not all - clients can be configured to do so - but this means also to reconfigure several clients on rule changes.

    So i'd like to suggest the possibility to handle emails on receiving on the server.
    E.g:
    - if sender ends with "domain.foo" or subject contains "project bar" then move to folder bar and mark as read
    - if sender is "foo@domain.bar" forward to "…

  2. Add an option to lock/freeze a website

    Hi,

    some Hosts (e.g. Strato) use a functionality to completely lock a site. This is very useful for customers that dont want to do any changes to their website anymore but use an old version of a cms and forget/dont want to upgrade.

    Of course there should be a warning about the consequences like non working file caching etc.

  4. Improvements for Wordpress Toolkit

    Disable the built-in code editor adding define('DISALLOWCODEEDIT', true); in wp-config.php

    Anonymize login error message because it actually tells you what is wrong (the username or the password), hooking into loginerrors with addfilter('login_errors, function() { return 'Login error'; });

    Apply permission 400 (-rw-------) to wp-config.php

    Change login URL avoiding the standard /wp-login.php or /wp-admin/ (pre)installing plugin "Lockdown WP Admin" or applying the same idea.

    Block brute force (pre)installing plugin "Limit Login Attempts" or applying the same idea.

    Mentioned plugins may be installed by default when Wordpress is installed through the APS, and may be added as an…

  6. Add a warning before application installation

    Actualy to instal an application, the user just clik on "install" bouton in application list.

  8. Don't send Auto-Reply when message detected as spam

    Don't send Auto-Reply when message detected as spam

    When a mail account has Auto-Reply and Spamassassin enabled, the Auto-Reply function should read the x-spam header and, if the incoming message was found to be spam, the automatic response should not be sent.

    At the moment I often see Automatic replies stuck in the outgoing mail queue because they're being sent to spammers. This is silly!

  9. Prevent users from installing SSL certificates

    As reseller (or administrator) we should be able to prevent customers installing a selfsigned or 3rd party bought SSL certificate themselves.

    It's not possible to disable the 'SSL support' check box within the
    'Service Plans' menu section 'Hosting Parameters' because as Administrator we install customer SSL certificates by API. Disabling 'SSL support' will also disable installing SSL certificates by API.

  10. Enable fetchmail feature

    I would like to enable and configure fetchmail on mailbox level. Main reason is easy migration for customers to new hosting providers including moving mails from existing mail servers.

    "fetchmail" is already installed together with PLESK, needs just to get properly configured.

  13. add backup password protection to Backup Manager Backups (NO..it doesn't have it at the mo)

    This may also be a security issue.
    Currently there are no special protection of user content in the backup. Plesk protects only its sensitive data, web content archived without any encryption.

    If some gains ADMIN access to a wordpress/drupal/other web applications install parts of the Plesk container file system, cron jobs, etc will be compromised and would undoubtably increase exponentially the chances of the system to be exploited with virus, rootkits, malware “indirectly” affecting Plesk. (as an analogy no point to build a metal wall if the door is still glass)

    So, in other words ... if a wordpress installation…

  18. Disable Apache & Nginx access logs (and error maybe) through Plesk panel.

    Access logs are not useful in most cases and we should have a feature to disable them through Panel not go and edit vhosts.

  19. Support HPKP

    I'd like to see HPKP integrated into the SSL certificate management of Plesk. This would allow, in combination with standard Nginx/Apache config, for a strongly recommended and worthwhile security element to be added to hosted sites.

  20. disable automatic greylisting activation for new domains

    If i add a new domain in a subscription, greylisting is automaticly activated, just because it's enabled on the server.

    It would be much better if customers have to activate greylisting manually in their settings, like the spamfilter.

    A workaround with Event Manager is possible but a bit inconvenient.
