  1. Allow hosting email directly on Google when using Google Workspace extension

    Currently, Plesk sets DNS records for mail to mail.<domain> pointing to the Plesk server and creates accounts in Google Workspace as well as accounts locally which are then relayed to Google Workspace, so emails go through the Plesk server and become unavailable if Plesk is down even though they are hosted on Google

    Please add possibility to set the mail records to point directly to Google

  2. include panel.ini in server backups

    The idea behind this feature is to have the panel.ini configuration file included in server backups, allowing it to be restored if it's accidentally modified or an issue occurs. Saving time and if the changes are not remembered fully.

  3. Add a way to remove entries from the Scheduled Backups List extension

    The Scheduled Backups List extension has no option to remove entries. When there are many domains and customers enable and disable scheduled backup tasks, the extension eventually becomes unusable as it's necessary to manually navigate pages to find relevant disabled backup tasks.

    Thank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it becomes popular.

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


    In the meantime, I believing sorting the tasks by Status, Name, Type, etc. can help you navigate a bit easier.

  5. Make Visual Studio Code projects deployment possible from non-root SSH

    Visual Studio code deployment on Plesk for Linux doesn't work as intended if a non-root user with SSH enabled is used. Therefore, only root can be used to deploy projects.

  6. Secure one way encrypted password storage (no mail_auth_view for gdpr, pci-dss, nis2)

    Mail password are encrypted but not hashed.
    Clear text password are available using the utility
    /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/mailauthview

    This is just symmetric everyone not the good practice. See OWASP :
    https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Password_Storage_Cheat_Sheet.html

    It does not meet many regulations (often referring to good practices or OWASP) and it's an unnecessary security risk of password exposure.

    Please add an option to have mail user password hashed one way.

    Thanks.

  8. Allow SMTP authentication with incoming mail disabled

    Having the mail server enabled for a domain makes all mail go to it internally, even if the MX records of the domain point to another server.

    The option to disable incoming mail resolves this, but doesn't allow Plesk to send mail over SMTP for that domain, only PHP mail.

    This is not preferable because this mail can't be encrypted nor signed with DKIM. Therefore, for security, Plesk should have an option to disable incoming mail while still allowing SMTP delivery by using the public MX records.

  9. Add "issuemail"-property tag for CAA-Records

    When creating a CAA record, you can only choose between "issue", "issuewild" and "iodef". Certificate Providers like Sectigo have begun enforcing CAA-Lookups. (See https://www.sectigo.com/knowledge-base/detail/CAA-Record-Certification-Authority-Authorization-1527076091491/kA01N000000zFMO )
    For a S/MIME certificate the propery tag needs to be "issuemail". Could you add this to the selection of CAA record property tags?

  11. manage root user event handlers **VIA THE UI** without blocking their existence entirely

    ability to block access to create / manage root user event handlers VIA THE UI without blocking their existence entirely (i.e. so that CloudLinux installer would work, which I presume creates the event handlers via CLI, but the Plesk admin would not have access via UI to touch them or create event handlers of their own that would effectively give them root access to the underlying server).

  14. Add option to hide DKIM management

    We haven an external DNS cluster and an external customer panel in which customers can manage things like DNS records etc.

    We have implemented a function through which we can let the customer enable DKIM through the external panel, which enables it on the Plesk server, retrieves the key, and adds the key to the zone on the DNS cluster

    In order to avoid conflicts and confusion we would like to hide the DKIM settings in Plesk for the customer on the subscription level.

  15. Queue emails over limit in a domain instead of defearring

    If you have activated a limit and the limit is reached, all further mails are rejected. It would be good if for these emails to remain in the mail queue and be sent automatically after the set time for the limit has expired.

  16. Add email list impot from plain-text file for white or black lists

    When adding email to white or black list, Plesk only gives the option to write manualy one address, and you need to click link to add another one. If you made a decent mannagement of your dmarc responses, and extract spam emails or domains from received email, you have a list too large to write by hand. An option to import a plain text with an email address or domain or top level domain really is a must.

    In the meantime, assuming that you are referring to the Blacklist in Server-wide mail settings, as a workaround, you can use the following command to import the entries from txt files:


    For Blacklist:

    cat your_blacklist.txt | while read i; do plesk bin mailserver --add-to-black-list $i;done


    Please make sure that you have each entry on a new line.

    Please provide an indication that my new installed Sophos extension is in use at the domain level

    I cannot verify that the Sophos extension which I just purchased is activated indivdually for each of my mailboxes.

    I received the following instructions from my host:
    "Enable Sophos in Mail Server Settings
    Navigate to Settings -> Mail Server Settings -> Antivirus -> Sophos to activate the feature.
    Activate Sophos for Each Mailbox
    Finally, Sophos must be activated individually for each mailbox to ensure coverage."

    However, Plesk shows I activated Sophos server wide, and the other shows no mention of Sophos under the…

  19. Link WP Toolkit notifications/error pop-up messages to the corresponding website

    Notifications/error messages in the popup windows have no reference to the affected domain/s.
    It would be helpful if you included the name of the affected domains in the popup messages.

  20. Add SMIMEA Record in DNS

    Add the SMIMEA record in the DNS-system.
    This is required for encrypted email communication.

    There is no need to set up an automatic system, just the option to create an individual record.

    The 63-character restriction must be removed, otherwise the hash of the address is too long and will be rejected.
