Smarthost/External SMTP
It would be nice to have an external SMTP (smarthost) ability for a per-domain basis (most mail services have this)
We use this for external scanning, data leak prevention and more.
Can this be be done?
Hi everyone,
I am glad to inform you that starting from Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64, it is now possible to configure Smarthost/relayhost on a server level in Tools & Settings > Smarthost.
However, while most of the feedback we received indicates that the current solution is good enough in resolving the pain point, there are some of our users who would like to be able to enable Smarthost on a per domain basis.
While providing an ability to configure multiple similar Smarthosts for different domains might be complicated, considering the technical stack we are working with (Windows & Linux, Postfix & MailEnable & SmarterMail), we can provide an ability to configure one Smarthost as a Plesk admin and give the possibility to enable this specific Smarthost for particular domains without enabling it serverwide.
In order to gather the feedback & votes specifically from the people who needs this exact functionality, I created the new UserVoice request.
In case you are interested in such functionality, please vote here.
Thank you!

I suggest that a feature is installed to configure a smarthost in the Plesk control panel the same way as can be done with cPanel.
This configuration is useful to prevent spam problems and high generation resources.

Possibility to configure separate relay Server for specific Domains., or local / direct delivery.This is asked by customers very often in past.
Usefull if you have a smarthost for outgoing and incomming mails (Anti-Spam, -Malware, etc.). -

It can be used for more than external filters, e.g. deliver the email, AFTER scanning spam and anti4us, to e.g. an exchange server on customers location.

I would like to request to add the function for PleskWEBUI for Enable/Disable Mail relay function from root@localhost.localdomain to registered email address.

Several 3rd party vendors offer email filtering and email encryption. To use these services you have to setup the mail server to send through a 3rd party smarthost. This would be a nice feature. I see that there is a comment about manually doing this through Postfix. What about those people using Qmail and those whose use Plesk that do not have shell access.

You can do this with Postfix and Sender Dependent Relayhost Maps:

I'm not sure that is more than an edge case though.
