remote smartermail ssl
if smartermail is local install you can create a SSL for webmail. This doesn't work with remote smartermail.
I would like plesk to introduce this so some kind of agent is running on the server so Plesk can communicate with IIS on the remote web server to copy SSLs and bindings.

Add Mailman support to Let's Encrypt
Please add Mailman support to Let's Encrypt.
Ideally, one could issue either a certificate directly for lists.domain.com or a wildcard certificate for *.domain.com.
Furthermore, a secure connection should be enforceable.
Thanks!

let the user manage the disk space while the subscription is suspended.
Let the subscriber delete the emails by him/herself to make some space when the allowed disk space is overused. Now we can't do anything to make space once the subscription is suspended. Have to call the support every time. It's really fraustrating!!!

editable global mime types for apache (default for all virtual hosts)
By default, apache will return wrong mime types for some file extensions (for examples font files).
We can add additional mime types per website, however we can't edit them globally for all websites via plesk.
We can achieve this by editing /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/mime-types.conf manually from cli, however plesk could provide a more comfortable way to do it.
Please add option to edit global mime types that will be used by all virtual hosts by default and overridden if website has its own instructions.

Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) - features from Linux to Windows
Please add support for Linux tools (and programming languages, such as Ruby) to Windows through Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and support for PLESK. Of course in the future. This function, in my opinion, is of great importance and gives Plesk a great advantage.
Windows Server 2016 (1709) supports Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), Semi-Annual Channel.
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) will be implemented in all versions of Windows Server 2019.
4 votesI suppose that it would be better to move your hosting to Plesk for Linux if you want to use Linux technologies. Some years ago Apache was supported by Plesk for Windows but it was dropped due to high business cost and insufficient reliability and relevance. Therefore I’m not sure that it is good idea to spread resources to support Linux technologies on Windows servers.
But anyway, thank you for your input! Maybe we will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

SSH keys with passphrase protection
Bitbucket repository provides the possibility to generate SSH keys with passphrase protection for better securing.
However, Git extension in Plesk doesn't support passphrase protection and fails with "Permission denied" error.Consider adding passphrase protection as it will increase the security.

Having possibility to add multiple addons to service plans
Hello,
can you consider adding possibility to have one Service Plan Addon to be added multiple times to one subscription?
For example Service plan with 2GB of hosting space could be extended with 5x of 1GB plan addon. This could be used with WHMCS which allows buying configurable options to hosting plans during hosting time period and users could extend their hosting space whenever they need it without changing their hosting plan to higher since they mostly need hosting space without any additional features.
As far as I can see when I create 1GB hosting space addon I can only…

Multi-select download option in file manager (download complete folders, too)
Please provide Multi-select Download option in file manager
20 votesWe're almost there. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.35, published on April 20th, 2021, we had already added the option to upload folders or multi-select-upload files. It may not yet be possible to download a complete directory in one step, but this can also be done in two steps by first creating an archive of it and then downloading the archive.
So this feature request is now about downloading a directory or a set of selected files in one step. Please keep voting for it if you believe that this is an important feature.

Hi.
It would be very usefull to be able to allow resellers to unban IPs banned by fail2ban.
This should be a given permission that would be given to specified resellers or even possibly to clients.

Expand WHMCS integration/module
The WHMCS module is very basic and lacks a lot of features. Some features to integrate and consider are to integrate WHMCS social/2auth integration with Plesk social login/2auth. Another integration is to allow the client to control their installation from the WHMCS panel and add configurable options such as plugins. Also, the client shouldn't be required to set a domain when purchasing a service, it should only ask for hostname since some will have multiple domains on their Plesk.

Let users choose the preferred log storage path (log file location)
Plesk should store all logs in the standard linux location of /var/log instead of storing logs in /var/www/vhost/system/<domain>/logs. In our case, we run very optimized Plesk environment w/ /var/www/vhost setup on it's own Enterprise RAID SSD. But we can't optimize Plesk hosting when the access logs, error logs, etc are also being written under the same partition (ie /var/www/vhost/...).

Wordpress Toolkit - URL switch (main URL <=> preview URL)
Hello,
I would like to suggest something which could be VERY helpfull to customers which are moving their Wordpress instances between servers. Lets say you have domain.com on Server1. Then you are moving it to Server2 with Plesk and Wordpress Toolkit but domain.com is still pointing to Server1. Issue with Wordpress is that if you don't use main URL then all media files (css, images etc) are not being loaded correctly and customer can't be sure if everything will work correctly when he switch DNS settings for domain.com from Server1 to Server2.
My suggestion is that it would be great…

Backup via SSHFS
We have huge amounts of Backup Data (currently around 450gb per file). The whole process using FTP takes around ~ 13 hours to complete. Trying to restore something is a big bottleneck for us. Restoring from FTP is ****, and we searched for alternatives.
We decided to give SSHFS a try by mounting /var/lib/psa/dumps to the remote Server and disconfigured the FTP Settings. The result is annoying. The Backup now takes around 2,5 hours, the Plesk Backend is really fast now and local space is not consumed anymore!
So i suggest you to give SSHFS a try. It is like…
