  1. Create only mail accounts when mail is actually enabled, instead of on domain creation

    As soon as any account is created in Plesk, a mail account is setup in Smartermail, used for managing the mail domain. This is one of the few minor issues for those using Plesk in a load balanced solution (which is actually remarkably possible!). It is also tricky for those running a limited smartermail license (e.g. 250 accounts, many of which are now unwanted Plesk management accounts).

    It should not be so difficult to setup the mail account only when mail is enabled on a domain, and have Plesk just leave the mail server alone for domains that do not…

  2. Import emails in batches

    There is a Mail Importing feature in Site Import extension, but it is possible only to migrate emails one by one. It would be great if there is an ability to migrate a couple of mailboxes at once.

  3. Improve the Mailqueue View to show the status

    The actual MailQueue status is useless, becaus the "status" of the email isnt viewed. This contains the important information for mails with problems.... Please expand it with the status, like it is done win Webim for example

  5. SpamAssassin check should always happen before forwarding

    According to https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000786914-How-to-enable-SpamAssassin-spam-check-for-forwarded-emails-on-Windows when the option "Apply individual settings to spam filtering" is enabled, filtering of forwarded emails is not performed and additional steps are required.

    Please, make it so that no additional steps would be required.

  7. Customizable Plesk notification email address

    Plesk has the ability to send notifications. However, with the latest version (v18.0.32) these are sent to my "External email address" of the admin user. But since I as admin user enter my Apple iCloud email "name@icloud.com" there, it is used as both sender and recipient and all notification emails end up in the spam folder of my iCloud mail.
    It would be really great if you could separate the administrator email from the notification email address and change it specifically so that email notifications are sent from "Plesk@domain.tld" to the external administrator email "name@icloud.com

    As https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/16956373-set-a-senders-email-address-for-plesk-notification was resolved and the sender address of notifications is now customizable we are wondering whether the issue described in this feature request cannot also be considered solved. The issue here was described as sender and recipient being the same address so that notifications are evaluated as "spam" at the recipient's mailbox. However, now that the sender address can be customized, this could easily be circumvented. 


    Further, the recipient address of notifications can be freely set in the notifications page. 


    Please comment if and why this feature request is still actual.

  8. 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.

  9. 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.

  11. Increase the logs available in MailEnable after log rotation

    When installing Plesk with MailEnable, by default Plesk removes MailEnable logfiles every 24 hours.

    According to this KB (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001102353), this functionality is made in purpose to optimize mail statistics, but this is not acceptable.

    Additionally, you are offering the possibility to apply this workaround (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213397889), but this workaround is not valid for us because we don't want to customize the FTP and HTTP logs location and we have the log files in different disk volumes.

    Please, provide the possibility to configure the log rotation settings for MailEnable respecting our hosting company needs.

  12. Add DKIM-key in php mail() function

    When DKIM is activated, the key isn't added when you use the PHP mail() function, for example if you have a contact form on the website. Please add because this generates false SPAM-detection problems. Google for example thinks it's strange that sometimes the DKIM key is added and sometimes not. Please keep in mind that this should work with an external DNS-service too.

  13. Add an option to disable reserved mailnames like root, postmaster, anonymous for domains

    If the option What to do with mail for non-existent users set to Forward to address (also known as catch-all address) in Domains > example.com > Mail Settings, then email messages to mailboxes below are not being delivered to the forwarding email address:

    anonymous@example.com
    mailer-daemon@example.com
    drweb@example.com
    kluser@example.com
    postmaster@example.com
    root@example.com

    Such mailboxes are present in the file /var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual.db and mapped to be delivered to @localhost.localdomain:

    /usr/sbin/postmap -s /var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual | grep example.com

    anonymous@example.com anonymous@localhost.localdomain
    mailer-daemon@example.com mailer-daemon@localhost.localdomain
    drweb@example.com drweb@localhost.localdomain
    kluser@example.com kluser@localhost.localdomain
    postmaster@example.com postmaster@localhost.localdomain
    root@example.com root@localhost.localdomain

    Please consider to add an option to disable reserved mailnames like root, postmaster, anonymous for domains in Plesk…

  14. Dovecot: mdbox and alternate storage support

    http://forum.odin.com/threads/dovecot-mdbox-and-altmove-support-in-plesk.334620/

    It would be really handy if we could, via Plesk panel or some cli utility, o switch from Maildir to mdbox as mailbox storage format and enable alternate storage for old emails. This way we can optimize the disk usage by using the fast storage media for recent emails, while the old stuff can go on a slower, cheaper media. Will also help a lot in growing our mail customer base without forking out ridiculous amounts of money for expensive fast disks arrays to keep up with the growth rate.

    Hello,

    Is it possible to add Rainloop as a webmail client?

    Since roundcube next isn't coming anytime soon I think this is a great alternative.

  18. UI for configure outgoing Mail Server by Domain

    Add Plesk Panel UI for configure outgoing Mail Server.

    ""In Plesk for Linux with the Postfix mail server, you can change the IP address used for sending mail. Also, if your server sends mail from domain IP addresses, you can specify which name will be used as a host name in SMTP greetings.""

    So a UI where the Admin of Plesk Server can, change the settings for outgoing Mails.
    Send from domain IP addresses and use domain names in SMTP settings.
