  1. Show currently/recently mail sending scripts

    Use case: One of our customer has uploaded files to his ftp server in a public internet cafe and his password was stolen. Afterwards there was a mass spam mail sending script on his webserver. Our server has been landed in black lists. It was very difficult to find and correct it.

  2. 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.

  3. Improvements for Wordpress Toolkit

    Disable the built-in code editor adding define('DISALLOWCODEEDIT', true); in wp-config.php

    Anonymize login error message because it actually tells you what is wrong (the username or the password), hooking into loginerrors with addfilter('login_errors, function() { return 'Login error'; });

    Apply permission 400 (-rw-------) to wp-config.php

    Change login URL avoiding the standard /wp-login.php or /wp-admin/ (pre)installing plugin "Lockdown WP Admin" or applying the same idea.

    Block brute force (pre)installing plugin "Limit Login Attempts" or applying the same idea.

    Mentioned plugins may be installed by default when Wordpress is installed through the APS, and may be added as an…

  4. Enable fetchmail feature

    I would like to enable and configure fetchmail on mailbox level. Main reason is easy migration for customers to new hosting providers including moving mails from existing mail servers.

    "fetchmail" is already installed together with PLESK, needs just to get properly configured.

  5. Outgoing Mail Control collect sample of offending emails

    When Outgoing Mail Control detects a user abusing the sending limits, it would be helpful for the emails that are sent beyond the limit to be sampled in some way: To: From: Subject: Headers, possibly the first line of the email, origination ip address of the offending email.

    This information can help the admin decide if it was the user just sending to many emails or if the email has been compromised and needs to be addressed.

    As a similar but different idea, emails beyond the limit could be cached for a short time to allow the administrator to decide…

  6. DKIM - needed to import own keys

    DKIM - needed to import own keys

    It is not fair solution that Plesk generate a private key, and i cannot extract and date them in a seperate Backup

    Please let us import our own DKIM keys

    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. Autosave a shadow copy (local storage perhaps) of an ongoing edited file to prevent data loss in case of session timeout

    My suggestion lies on the fact that I indeed lost my work on a php file that was open in the code editor, when I absent-mindedly pushed the "Apply" button on the text editor and realized with horror that my admin session timed out and I was returned to the unmodified version of the file once logged back in.

    It would be convenient to autosave in the background ongoing changes of a text file that is bound to change once opened in the editor, in order to prevent data loss.

  8. provide more nginx options

    Have the ability to provide more Nginx builds/packages. For example, offer a 'nginx-full'-package with more modules.

    For example, I need the Nginx headers more module. Since this need to be built-in at compile time, it isn't possible to add this later on. So that would mean replace the Plesk version of Nginx with the distro-default. (Heck, why does Plesk need it's own Nginx-build, anyway?)

    No, passing headers from Apache is not an option, especially when I'm using the Nginx - PHP-FPM setup.

  9. Allow configuration of the php-fpm slow log

    For debugging PHP-FPM can log slow scripts. It would be great if you could manage this feature via Plesk.

  11. Don't send Auto-Reply when message detected as spam

    Don't send Auto-Reply when message detected as spam

    When a mail account has Auto-Reply and Spamassassin enabled, the Auto-Reply function should read the x-spam header and, if the incoming message was found to be spam, the automatic response should not be sent.

    At the moment I often see Automatic replies stuck in the outgoing mail queue because they're being sent to spammers. This is silly!

  12. 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.

  13. Introduce Email Signature/Disclaimer management

    Plesk controlled signature/disclaimer management

    1)per user
    2)per URL
    3)server wide

    plesk or email in drop down and in the text field

    1. signature at user-level (user@sld.tld) | eg: Regards Mr. Abc
    2. signature at domain-level (*@sld.tld) | eg: Company xyz, Address
    3. signature at server-level | eg: "Nessage was tested against spam by xyz-freemail.com"

    Every "snippet" should be added from level | in this example:
    "regards
    Mr. Abc
    Company xyz
    Address
    Message was tested against spam by xyz-freemail.com"

    A client approached me with exactly this request
    what I could get working was the following:

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

    To ensure the best possible compatibility of support would be very good here.
    Of course, this is not a priority but would be good.
    So could the future https, http, be http / 2 Easy granted.

  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.

  18. 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…
