  1. Plesk File Browser - Change Permissions recursive

    Yes of Course: Changing file- and Folder-persmissions is possible via SSH.

    But I couldn't tell my Clients to connect via SSH and give in commands they don't know. They will mail me and tell me how bad the Service is with such use-cases.

    Also changing via FTP Client is possible, but for example FileZilla will Need a Long time for changing an complex WordPress install with some thousand files. Or even worse Typo3 with couple of ten-thousands of files.

    I think extending the Plesk File Browser with an "recursive" Checkbox is really no big deal, but really good für UX…

  2. Add ability to enable more logs for mail server

    Please add ability to enable more logs for mail server. It would be nice to be able to track user actions like messages/directories removal, like it is done in Zimbra.

  3. Anonaddy as Mail-Service

    Hello,
    I have noticed that I use and also need more and more eMail addresses for different websites.
    If only to see which website may have been hacked and turn off the SPAM on it. Currently it is possible to create aliases.

    However, the list becomes very confusing, as soon as some addresses were deposited.

    There is open source code from Anonaddy on Github.
    It would be great if this would be integrated and also the addon for Chrome/Firefox is adapted so that this works together with the anonaddy in Plesk.

  4. 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.

  5. Let's Encrypt: Be able to secure a domain with 100+ domain aliases by splitting the domain aliases in multiple certificates, instead of one

    A domain in Plesk has 100+ domain aliases.
    Currently, when securing this domain and all its aliases with a Let's Encrypt certificate, procedure fails due to a Let's Encrypt rate limit of 100 names per certificate.

    Use case:

    Domain in Plesk is a multisite.
    One installation is facilitating a lot of websites, running from the same core-CMS.
    All the sites on this multisite need to point to the same installation and the domain alias is the only solution to do so.
    It is these domain aliases that should be secured with a Let's Encrypt certificate.

  6. When the quota limit is about to be exceeded, you send a message to the customer before suspend the service.

    It's the second time my company's services are suspended because our automatic backup ocupied more than our disk space.

    I think that if the backup it's going to exceed the available space, it's better not to let the archive to be created and send a warning to the customer. Now instead, the service is suspended and the customer spends a whole day (or two) without email or webpage.

    There is threshold for quota limit at which customer is notified. If the threshold is set empty or too high, or too low, then notification might not be seen in time.

    Backup files have “rotation” option, so that only fixed number of backup files is stored. It is not quite possible to precisely calculate backup size in advance unfortunately.

  7. Allow configuration of MSMTP (SMTP relay)

    Currently, there is no way to permanently change the MSMTP config in /etc/msmtprc and the Plesk options in "Mail > External SMTP Server" are not enough for Gmail and Zoho to even work.

    Gmail problem:
    While sending you get
    errormsg='the server sent an empty reply'
    Fix: add "tls_starttls off" to /etc/msmtprc
    Zoho problem:
    https://talk.plesk.com/threads/its-not-possible-to-send-notification-emails-from-plesk-using-and-external-smtp-msmtp.344922/#post-836533

    Please provide for us a way to change the config template or include additional configs, like we have for e.g. proftpd in /etc/proftpd.d/

  8. Add possibility to change default user role during mail address creation

    When a new email address with 'Access to the Customer Panel' option checked is created, the new user is automatically created along with the mailbox in Subscriptions > example.com > Users, his role is Application User.

    Please add a possibility to change the 'default' role that would be assigned to the users created in such a way.

  9. To manage sub-domain and mail setting need inner part of each domain

    Currnetly when we add sub domain it will show as domain.subdomain.com separately in home page.

    if it inner part of domain like we manage Domain setting and DNS records. It will little good option to manage, Even we can identity how much subdomain we have to mange per site.

    Same thing for Mail, Mail ID and mailing list for the domain is working in separate area of Please it will also good if we can get only mail ids list from domain section.

  10. Introduce other MFA methods besides the phone app

    As for now, MFA extension is limited only to a phone app. It would be useful to introduce other authorization methods (e.g. mail) for this extension.

  11. implement tools to combat spam when sent from scripts hosted on domains.

    We would like customers to manage their domains themselves but limit them to a list of domains defined by the reseller/admin.

    It would be great if a customer could e.g. define himself which domain (alias) should belong to which hosting package.

    The problem at the moment is: If we give customer A the privileges to manage his domains, he could also add a foreign domain (NOT on the server) and configure mail accounts, e.g. *@ebay.com. The result would be that any mail another customer B who also uses our server sends to this domain could be "captured" by customer A.…

  17. Keep mail services alive when a domain is deactivated.

    it would be interesting to be able to disable a domain and leaving the active messaging services, as this method allows me to deploy the webdev sites. Unfortunately in this case the site can not send mails from a mail addresse of the domain.
