it should be possible for the admin to login as a reseller user
It should be possible for the admin to login as a reseller user, this is necessary to give good support to the reseller.
It is not pratical to ask the reseller is username/password to login for suport, CPANEL and HSPHERE does this correctly

Disk usage by folders / directory tree
At this moment, there is only disk usage summary by domains. It would be great, if we could check the disk usage by folders. Best option would be expanding directory tree (just like it was done in the other known "customer Panel").
Here is my attempt to visualize the idea:
[-]root (1 GB)
.|--[+] cgi-bin (0 B)
.|--[+] etc (5 KB)
.|--[-] httpdocs (900 MB)
.....|--[+] folder1 (400 MB)
.....|--[+] folder2 (500 MB)

Customer email notification when mailbox quota exceeded
It would be a very useful feature to have an email automatically injected to a customers mailbox when their quota is close to the limit and another when the mailbox quota has been exceeded with advice (customisable) on how to resolve the problem.
Sometimes clients are unaware/forget their quota and if accessing via outlook/smartphone etc they are not aware of the limit being reached. This can result in several days without emails or emails being rejected with a "mailbox full" autoresponder. Ironically this means anyone sending emails to the client are aware the mailbox is full but the client is…

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.

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.

Multiple backup rules or more options
At this moment, you can set only 1 rule to make backups (daily, weekly, or monthly). My idea is to make multiple backup rules (ex. which daily backups should be deleted) or simply make more backup options.
Ex:
I want to make daily backup and delete every older than 2 days, except one day of the week and one day of the month.ex interface:
Make [daily/weekly/monthly] backup and keep only:
[n] daily backups (enabled only for daily backups)
[n] weekly backups (enabled for daily and weekly backups)
[n] monthly backups (enabled for daily, weekly and monthly backups)So, if…

We have finished our big pack of Backup improvements for the scheduler to establish a more flexible backup policy:
- Multiple backup schedules with different destination for each schedule at once to get a flexible and robust backup policy. User can keep, for example, hourly backups locally and weekly backups to cloud or FTP. Establishing multiple backup schedules at once is a part of a license to the Backup to Cloud Pro extension. The extension is included already to Plesk Hosting Pack.

Generate random password for password fields.

Support for managing autorized SSH keys
It's possible to give any system user a ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file and add public SSH keys to that file to authorize access for anyone who has the private SSH key to go with it, so users can use things like SCP/SFTP (and SSH if they have a shell configured) safely without having to use password authentication. If would be great if Plesk allowed the management of authorized SSH keys for a user.

Support server-side e-mail rules
Most e-mail clients support configuring rules to automatically perform actions on incoming messages based on certain criteria. You could for instance have a rule that automatically moves a message into a folder based on the address of the sender, a rule that automatically deletes a message if it contains certain words in the subject, etc. Since most people are using multiple e-mail clients it's impractical to configure your rules in all of the clients you use (webmail, phone, desktop, etc.), so it would be great if Plesk allowed these rules to be configured server-side.

Limit outgoing mail messages

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!
