Issue Let's Encrypt SSL certificate for mail server when the "A" DNS record for domain is pointing to another server
This feature is required for users with the configuration when on the Plesk only mail server for domain is used.
"A" DNS record for mail.example.com is pointing to Plesk server, when when "A" record for example.com is pointing to another server.

 commentedWe need this feature in an era of secure communications, where having a certificate is ubiquitous, customers demand for it and improves the security of the services.

 commentedWe have clients that only have email service. 
 A good workaround was PLESK add webmail.customerdomain.tld as a server name indication (SNI).

      Tessa Vermeulen commented Indeed! In the begin people used pop3.domain.tld for incoming and smtp.domain.tld for outgoing. Now people are more and more using mail.domain.tld for incoming and outgoing mailserver. (with the correct ports). But the only way to have it on SSL is to create a subdomain for each subscription called mail.domain.tld and point the certificate to it. Just add another checkbox like the webmail for mail. will help alot.

 commentedWe need to be able to use mail.domain.tld to secure SMTP, POP, IMAP without needing to use a Let's Encrypt Wildcard SSL/TLS certificate and without needing to create a subdomain for mail.domain.tld. Perhaps mail.domain.tld should always be added as an alias to the webmail.domain.tld vhost. That way a HTTP-01 challenge can be done.

 commentedIssuing Let's Encrypt certificates for mail.domain.tld (to secure SMTP POP IMAP) without web-hosting enabled on the main domain. At this way, Plesk can provide only mail services.

 commentedNot having this function basically makes it impossible to provide email-hosting service to customers.

 commentedVery important and absolutely unclear why this doesn't work already. 
 Actually you cannot provide just email hosting for someone that needs his own subdomain to be used.
 Also you have problems if the domain is configured to use some CDN like CloudFlare.
