Enable Nginx GeoIP module
Some of security configuration requires GeoIP detection. It also useful for tracing and should be easy as adding '--with-http-geoip-module' option to configure command for the package.
230 votesAdded in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.46:
nginx shipped with Plesk is now compiled with ngx_http_geoip2_module out of the box. This makes it possible to use MaxMind Geo IP databases to detect visitor’s geographical location by their IP address. This, in turn, makes it possible to limit access to websites to visitors from certain countries, or to automatically redirect them to country-specific URLs.

Add management of webmail SSL certificates
I would like to propose the management of SSL certificates for webmail in plesk panel.
Now, unless you use a wildcard certificate, you cannot secure your webmail with a valid SSL certificate.
Please make the SSL certificate used for webmail.<domain> .
Please also add a configurable central url for webmail, with SSL support, and add a redirect option to that url for webmail.<domain>
E.G. visitors for http://webmail.<customerdomain> will be redirected to https://<configuredwebmailurl>211 votesWe’re happy to announce that this feature is now available in Plesk Onyx, which was released recently for early adopters. You can try Plesk Onyx here: https://www.plesk.com/onyx/

Set a senders email address for Plesk notifications
I am sending mails from an external server, my Plesk Servers do not even have mail setup. Plesk offers the option to send notification mails (like backup errors,...) using an external SMTP server, but all mails get sent using the mail address
root@servername.domain.tldMy SMTP server does not have this mail address or even domain setup. I would like to set a custom email address for Plesk to send mails from in order to not have to set up a domain and mail address for every Plesk server.
194 votesThis feature has been added to Plesk version 18.0.45. It can be set in the panel.ini file.

Docker Compose to use over the admin panel
I would like to administrate multiple Docker container via Compose, editable over the Admin panel. Some easy deploying mechanism including the Volumes of the container from my local machine over upload or git would be nice.
178 votesWe are glad to inform you that Docker Compose support is introduced in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.65.

Use copy and paste, or upload them from local storage. Typical operations on stacks are supported, such as: up (including pull and force-recreate), stop, and down.
To enable these features, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

add the free Clef service for simple, strong multifactor panel authentication without passwords
Plesk Panel 11 is wonderful. But it could be even more wonderful if included strong, multifactor authentication.
Clef’s (http://getclef.com) strong MFA is free, super easy to use, and provides next-gen authentication security without passwords.
Plesk Panel + Clef would make a dynamic duo!

fail2ban now supports IPv6 - please upgrade
At some time you closed the request "fail2ban for IPv6" stating that fail2ban does not support it. That was no doubt correct at the time - but now it does, see https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/tree/0.10
I'm seeing a lot of warnings in the fail2ban log on my dual stack servers, like this:
66:1000:b01c:10ab:0:1: [Errno -9] Address family for hostname not supported
and my log checking software is complaining to me about the overly long fail2ban log.

Thanks! Tim.

Support full DNS for CloudFlare ServerShield
Currently CloudFlare ServerShield is implemented using partial (CNAME) setup. What is the point in a partial setup when you can benefit from full DNS? You get anycast DNS with CloudFlare on full DNS.

For Backup Manager and Scheduled Backup Settings I missing the feature only backup database(s). :)
