  1. 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.

  2. Upgrade PostgreSQL

    PostageSQL provides some powerful function to process non-relational data (eg: "jsonb") after version 9.4.
    Would you please upgrade that?
    Thanks.

    If you mean PostgreSQL, we support 9.4 version in the current 12.5 version – https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/12.5/software-requirements/#s4-2-1 and upcoming Plesk Onyx – https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/17.0/software-requirements/#s4-2-1

    We will officially support next versions if many people will support your request. But I think that you can try to use 9.5 version right now. It should work, but we have not tested it yet.

  3. Implement DNS Whitelists

    Plesk does not currently support DNS Whitelists like it does RBLs, such as the list at dnswl.org. There needs to be a way to add this from the Plesk UI.
    The Postfix main.cf config directive is permitdnswlclient.
    Whenever a Plesk upgrade happens, the setting, if added is removed and needs to be added back manually.

  4. Hide/Show Database Servers for clients

    Administrator should have the possibility to make Database Servers hidden from Clients.

    My scenario is:

    1 or more servers that are intended for Web only (Nginx+Apache+PHP/Ruby/Python)
    2 or more servers for Databases (MySQL / could be PostgreSQL also)

    In the Database Servers, the administrators should be able to select visible servers for clients.

    Why? Ideal is to hide the localhost server when only external are to be used. Some DB servers may get to full and you want the clients to select only from lower used ones. You have demands from different clients to support older versions of MySQL for…

  5. LDAP Server

    I would like to have the option for setting up an ldap server. Of course with an ui-manager like ldapadmin. Just the way like MySQL works (MySQL with PHPmyAdmin).

    Thank You

    One good reason why it is important to use own DKIM key is that for sending mail from different servers that service the same domain (e.g. during a migration) the key on the target needs to be the same as on the source. 

    We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

    Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

  7. Allow domain forwarding for every domain in a subscription, including the subscription domain

    Currently it is not possible to make domain-forwarding for every Domain in an Abonnement. You have to select website-Hosting for the first domain to enable Forwarding for other Domains.

    Many providers set a placeholder domain as the main subscription domain so that all domains actually "in use" in a subscription can be freely configured. Please consider this option as it will immediately solve the issue for you.


    Besides that, this is a valid request. Everyone, please keep voting for it if you believe it is important.

  11. Ability to set PHP version per directory inside the same webspace

    A customer would like to be able to assign different PHP versions for different directories inside one the the same webspace.
    For example,
    /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs - php5.3.3
    /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/test - php5.2.17
    /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/test2 - php5.6.12

  12. Add to Server-Wide Black List and White List block by IP adress and DOMAIN name.

    Server-Wide Black List blocking only by domain name is insufficient, because spammers can spoof real sender adress. Not every sender has SPF record configured. And also email White List needs whitelist by domain name to block common spammers with no fixed IP.

  15. Setting alternate directory path location of the vhost per Domain or service packet

    At the moment it is not possible to change or choose the vhost path for a domain. Every Domain is installed in the standard vhost path, at example /var/www/vhosts
    If someone has a Server with attached fast and slow storage or big and small storage, it should be possible for the administrator to choose between them when installing a new Domain. It could be possible to give a customer service packages with faster storage for mission critical domains or giving him a lot of space for another domain located on disk drives mounted to another location.

    At the moment you can change default vhosts location in Plesk using the command-line utility transvhosts.pl
    Just check available options with

    plesk bin transvhosts.pl —help

    Changing vhosts directory location for part of domains is impossible now.

    Anyway thank you for your input. We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases, if it will be popular.

    Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

  16. Plesk Repair Tool (Linux) : Exclusion of paths, permissions and directories

    We tried to use the "plesk bin repair" tool (file system check) with -n to run once a week and report if errors found to nagios. Unfortunately the tool does also report things like the .git directory as suspicious. So we would get alerts for everybody using GIT in his Web-space.

    We would like to have to the possibility to exclude some specific paths, directories or permissions to get a clean output from the repair tool and pass it to nagios.

  17. Port Scan protection, PortSentry / PSAD

    Plesk has fail2ban but seems to have no port scan protection, Something like PSAD or Portsentry would be good to be included to allow blocking and reporting on portscans making plesk more secure for everyone.

    Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) Support where good.

    To ensure the best possible compatibility of support would be very good here.

    So could the future https, http, be http / 2 Easy granted.
