    Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, this request contains two different suggestions, and it’s not technically possible to properly handle them inside one request.

    Please consider creating separate feature requests for each of the items below:

    1. “Interface that show progress process of compress backup before download”

    We could consider the possibility of implementing this feature in future Plesk releases.

    2. “Reconfigure limit timeout that block dowkload of big files backup”

    It seems like a bug, so we need to know more about the issue to try to reproduce it. What is the size of these big backups? What happens when this limit exceeded? Could you please describe your request in more detail?

    Please create a new request with each item, so that others can vote for it.

    Thank you.

  2. Make SSL/TLS encryption on port 587 optional, not mandatory

    Some mails could not be received due to the fact the Postfix 2.8 and higher in Plesk uses only TLS encryption, when senders use other encryption methods. Manually updating main.cf directly on the server (as discribed in https://plesk.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213386889) is not always an option since the main Postfix configuration file may be overwritten by any Plesk update. In order to avoid potential issues with non-delivered mails it is required to make SSL/TLS encryption on port 587 optional, not mandatory.

  3. Kaspersky AV handler must not backscatter

    Kaspersky AV handler must not respond back to the sender address of an e-mail containing a virus. This will cause backscatter and get the server blacklisted.

  5. Add enabling "Keep websites secured" with all options via CLI

    Suggest adding the CLI commands for enabling "Keep websites secured" and all four options:
    "Include the "www" subdomain"
    "Secure domain aliases"
    "Secure webmail"
    "Secure mail"
    in SSL/TLS certificates.
    It would enhance the advanced administration of SSL certificates, especially beneficial on servers with large amount of domains.

  6. Limitation for FTP username

    Presently there is 16-char limitation for FTP username. This hinders migration from obscure hosting systems that use longer usernames.
    Please, consider implementing the feature that would remove this 16-char limitation if Providers opts to do so.

  7. Better Integration with AWS Services

    There needs to be integration with Amazon SES, like make it another option in the SMTP options. The current method of choosing MSMTP (in order to configure it as an external SMTP service) will uninstall your other inbound mail services, like Dovecot and Postfix.

    Additionally, a way to integrate the AWS Route 53 service would be very helpful. Maybe this could be added as an Extension.

  8. Send server email notifications through Microsoft Graph API

    Hi to all of you,
    I got an Please Server running in Azure.
    As you may know, SMTP Port 25 Outgoing is blocked default by Microsoft to avoid spamming.
    On request it can be opened but it's not always granted.

    Microsoft Graph API Support in Plesk would be welcomed as it would allow to send Plesk Server Emails notifications.

    such feature already exists for Wordpress and works perfectly after creating an App Registration in Azure with the correct Graph API permissions.

    Therefor creating such feature for Plesk should not Rocket Science.

    Some useful URLs:

  9. I'm using Horde email, why do I have to log into my mail account every day?

    I'm using Horde email, why do I have to log into my mail account every day? Can Plesk have an option to allow my email web page to be open every day for a month or two? I use Yahoo email, and it will stay signed in for months, as long as I don't clear my browser cache. Why can't Horde email do the same thing?

    This means that “mail()” function is disabled in PHP configuration (directive “disable_functions” in php.ini).
    You shall or address this question to your service provider (from whom you have purchased the account) directly.
    Sorry, but we are closing this item because it is not a feature request. We would appreciate if you ask questions about Plesk and report bugs found in Plesk using our forum: http://forum.odin.com
    Thanks!

  11. Different notification settings for available WordPress updates: Plugin, Theme or WordPress core

    Email notifications to customers are sent on every available WordPress update, that's far too much. My clients don't take them for important anymore and don't update at all. I suggest to fine tune available settings in Tools & Settings > Notifications > APS application updates (customer’s digest): Different notification options if the available update is a WordPress Core update, a plugin update or a theme update. So for example the plugin and theme update notification could be turned off for customers, but WordPress core update notifications would be still sent.

    Another suggestion would be an option to cutomize the…

    Whitelist records are stored in psa database table smtp_poplocks and can’t be lost during upgrade.
    To solve this upgrade issue, please contact your hosting provider (the company that hosts your website) and request support from them directly. We are the authors of the software you and your hosting provider are using, and unfortunately, we cannot help with this particular request because we do not host your website.

  14. Add SSH2 extension to PHP default extensions to improve security

    Hi,

    Please consider add SSH2 extension to PHP default available extensions.

    To be able to use FTP over SSH (SFTP) the SSH2 extension must be installed on PHP.

    IN SHORT: SFTP (SSH2 EXTENSION) = SECURITY

    SFTP means secure file transfer via Secure Shell (or SSH), hence the name SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). The two devices (server and client) communicate via a single channel, that of SSH, in which the remote file management commands are sent and where the file transfer takes place. By default, the only port required for SFTP is 22, the same as SSH.

    SFTP implements the…

  15. Add IgnoreHosts options to Plesk`s DMARC implementation

    Currently it is possible to whitelist only domain with IgnoreMailFrom parameter. However there could be false-positive DMARC failures (in case sender's strict policy and mail going throughout relay) due to which it could be useful to have option to whitelist specific network. It would be nice having this option available

    We are closing the current request due to low demand and lack of reasonable explanation on why "IgnoreHost" is required over SRS.


    Please use Tools & Settings > Mail Server Settings > SPF local rules to configure an SPF record which will be used by Plesk to validate emails (including emails from an intermediate anti-spam solution). See KB article for mode details (https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360022753174) and Plesk documentation.

  18. Allow the use of LetsEncrypt for default certificates

    I would like to be able to use the Let's Encrypt extension to add new certs to the "list of certificates in server pool" and make use of a Let's Encrypt (LE) cert as the "default certificate" for domains that have not added their own specific certificate.

    I thought this was already possible, but was incorrect. I added a LE cert on the Tools/Settings > SSL/TLS Certificates page, and made it the default certificate.

    However, I used a different certificate to secure the Panel and the mail server. It appears, in that case, the LE cert will never be renewed.

  20. check passwords against Pwned Passwords API

    Plesk should check user typed passwords against Pwned Passwords API

    https://haveibeenpwned.com/API/v2

    that way you could further improve systems running Plesk against Brute-Force attacks - and Dictionary attacks

    WordFence plugin for WordPress is already offering this, checking WordPress administrator passwords against https://haveibeenpwned.com/API/v2

    it shouldn't be too much work to compare Plesk password hash between Plesk and https://haveibeenpwned.com/API/

    I would like to use this feature for all services (FTP, E-Mail, Plesk, WordPress, etc.)

    It makes a lot of sense to do this, there are no drawbacks
    it should be option that users can enable/disable
    if you don't need it, you…
