    Thank you for your input! We will consider functionality to implement ability to set TLS as required for email connections in upcoming releases if it will be popular.

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

    Please note that STARTSSL is a service of StartCom and there are issues with them to stay in CA role http://www.pcworld.com/article/3129725/certificate-policy-violations-force-reform-at-startcom-and-wosign.html so STARTSSL support will not be implemented in Plesk.

  3. Allow using a centralized SmarterMail Server for BOTH LINUX and WINDOWS Plesk installations

    The implementation of the centralized smartermail in plesk onyx for windows is good, but it should also be possible to integrate this feature into the linux edition.

    Many hosters provide both windows and linux hosting with ONE centralised mail solution. Since the integration for winodws is already done I suppose it shouldn't be too hard to integrate it into the linux version as well since smartermail is completely API based.

  5. ProFTPd GeoIP blocking

    Compile proftpd with "GeoIP"
    http://www.proftpd.org/docs/contrib/mod_geoip.html

    This would allow to block or whitelist countries - even on a per user basis.
    We did research on this and most of the foreign FTP attempts are malicious.

  6. 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 "…

  7. Different notification settings for available WordPress updates: Plugin, Theme or WordPress core

    Email notifications to customers are sent on every available WordPress update, that's far too much. My clients don't take them for important anymore and don't update at all. I suggest to fine tune available settings in Tools & Settings > Notifications > APS application updates (customer’s digest): Different notification options if the available update is a WordPress Core update, a plugin update or a theme update. So for example the plugin and theme update notification could be turned off for customers, but WordPress core update notifications would be still sent.

    Another suggestion would be an option to cutomize the FREQUENZY…

  10. Limiting inodes for client, reseller, subscription

    Hello,
    is good idea to limit users files count. This limit will restrict users from generating
    thousands of files, makes faster backups creations. Directadmin and cpanel has this feature and it is very usefull for hosting.

  11. Add XML API operations to manage Backup Password and Scheduled Backup

    Some useful functionalities of Backup in Web UI are not available in the XML API. Like configuring Password or Scheduled Backup. Those operations are at server level.

    I think it would be useful to add the 4 following operations :

    backup-manager / set-secure-backup-settings
    backup-manager / get-secure-backup-settings

    With attributes like :
    - use-password-protection : boolean
    - password : string

    backup-manager / set-schedule-settings
    backup-manager / get-schedule-settings

    With attributes like :
    - enable : boolean
    - period : 86400 | 604800 |2592000
    - hour : integer from 0 to 23
    - minute : 0 | 15 | 30 |45
    - use-incremental : boolean…

  13. Allow selective download of single files from an external backup archive

    Hi, To restore a single file from FTP repository, it required whole full to download and then restore required data. Which consumes lot of time. Please try to work this backup/restore operation like other backup application where we can select required data and it get easily download without time consuming.

    Also the backup tab should give option like dayswise full, incremental backup. Start and stop backup schedule, etc...

  14. Secure default HTTPS settings

    Set the default settings so that websites (e.g. Wordpress) created in Plesk have a good score in online scanners (are secure).

    One very good scanner is https://observatory.mozilla.org/

    This includes some headers to be sent, and secure TLS settings.
    Mozilla also offers a guide concerning web server settings: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Server_Side_TLS

    The remaining things should be set in Wordpress directly directly by Plesk.

  16. Upgrade PostgreSQL

    PostageSQL provides some powerful function to process non-relational data (eg: "jsonb") after version 9.4.

    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.

  17. DNS: Add PTR record without domain subscription

    Sometimes PTR records have different names from domains subscription, for example to IP address rented to customers.

    As ISP provider you manage PTR records and you need identify reverses records with services or customers.

  18. 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.

  19. Block users from re-using old password, especially for mailboxes

    System could remember a certain number of old passwords (admin configurable) and prevent user from selecting these again.

    Have had more cases than I'd like to admit where customer re-used a previously compromised password. If Plesk remembered the last x passwords used by that account it would help.

    Also adding ability so Plesk checks a server configurable password blacklist before accepting customers new selection would be appreciated.
