Add email notifications for certain scenarios in the outgoing mail queue, e.g. "n mails waiting", "n mails processed in m minutes"
It would be great to have the possibility to configure an alert/notification based on the Mail Queue.
This way it would be possible to know if a certain amount of emails are being stuck in the queue.
The alert should allow to chose a number of emails that should be in the queue before it sends a notification

Disable or limit the backups of Wordpress toolkit
Implement the ability to disable the backups of Wordpress toolkit, or limit the amount of backups that a domain user can do within this extension.
4 votesThe ability to limit the number of backup files via Service Plans was added in WPT 5.1. Setting the number of backups to zero disables the backup feature in WPT altogether.

(De-)Activate mail service per domain ONLY
Currently you can deactivate email per subscription in mail settings, or use the Plesk command-lint utility domain with the appropriate settings. It would be more convenient to have a checkbox under the domain settings, or under Mail with a domain selection box.

Assign separate SSL certificates for multiple mail servers
Allow the ability to assign separate SSL certificates for multiple mail servers.
212 votesAvailable since Plesk Obsidian RC3. Windows: modern version of MailEnable required (shipped with Plesk), Linux: modern versions of Postfix (shipped with Plesk) and Dovecot (shipped by most OS vendors) required.

Support incremental backup for mail content
Nowadays, many users are using IMAP, maybe because is the default setting in many popular email clients (Mozilla Thunderbird, and I remember Mail on Windows 8.1 didn't support POP3 at all).
Mail content usually grow but previously stored messages doesn't change often. In Maildir format, used by Plesk, qmail and Postfix, when an user got new mails, new files with unique name are added on disk, and only some files are changed (basically, only courier-imap and dovecot caches and indexes, perhaps easy to rebuild from scratch).
So, please, support incremental backup for mail content too
69 votesThis feature was implemented a very long time ago, but we missed updating the feature request entry accordingly. Please excuse the delay. The reason that it was missed was probably that back then a huge number of users were still using the mbox mail storage format. There it was not possible to get a delta of mails.
In Plesk Obsidian an incremental backup includes mail data changed since the time of the last backup (full and incremental).

Show reason of deferred message in mail queue
Actually it's possible to show deferred messages headers in : Tools and settings > mail server settings > mail queue
It would be very useful if it's possible to show the reason why the message is deffered or stuck in the queue (/var/spool/postfix/defer).
132 votesWe are happy to announce that the ability to Track Email Delivery is now available in Log Browser 1.8.0. In the new version, Plesk customers (as well as Plesk administrators) can track email delivery and manage deferred emails right in the domain card (under the "Mail" tab). If an email has been deferred, the reason also be shown.
You can find additional information at https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/obsidian/change-log/#log-browser-1.8.0.

Mailpile support (secure mail server option)
In light of the Snowden fallout, I hope that Plesk will add support for Mailpile (http://www.mailpile.is) or something similar for secure e-mail.
50 votesThank you for your input!
Mailpile is meant to be a local e-mail client which is installed to the personal computer (https://www.mailpile.is/faq/#wha) and secure your mail by fetching it from server, deleting from server and securely storing on local disk. It is not considered as webmail client which is installed on the server. It works with mail server over standard protocols (SMTP, POP3, IMAP) which are supported by Plesk, so you may install use it without any limitations.
Though, as it has the web interface and written on Python, it may be installed to a web server, but it’s not recommended for security and privacy reasons.Unfortunately, we have no plans to integrate it with Plesk panel.

Disable mail service simplified
There is actually no way to create "real" "Web service only" subscription. If the subscription plan is set without any mailbox the mailservice is enable on that subscription BUT not accessible in the panel. It's necessary to change the subscription settings to access the disable button or in command line by :
/usr/local/psa/bin/subscription --update domaine.com -mailservice false
Without disabling mail_service the web service will not be able to send email to subscription's domain external hosted mail address.It would be great to be able to set a plan of "web only" subscription to host…
21 votesImplemented in Plesk Onyx 17.9 Preview 7 – https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/onyx/change-log/#contents-179-preview7
Users can now remove the Plesk mail service for a domain or choose not to create it when a domain is created. This is useful when using a remote mail service – mail to domains hosted in Plesk will no longer be delivered locally.

Support server-side e-mail rules
Most e-mail clients support configuring rules to automatically perform actions on incoming messages based on certain criteria. You could for instance have a rule that automatically moves a message into a folder based on the address of the sender, a rule that automatically deletes a message if it contains certain words in the subject, etc. Since most people are using multiple e-mail clients it's impractical to configure your rules in all of the clients you use (webmail, phone, desktop, etc.), so it would be great if Plesk allowed these rules to be configured server-side.
49 votesServer-side email rules are available with new Dovecot server in the latest Plesk 12.0 preview.

Outbound mail limit alerts in Abuse Reporting Format

Show mail traffic statistics when using SmarterMail
When installing Plesk with SmarterMail, the mailbox usage stats are calculated, however, the mail traffic usage stats (IMAP/POP3 + SMTP) are not calculated.
It would be really useful that Plesk would calculate mail traffic usage for when SmarterMail is being used, otherwise, we cannot monitor the traffic usage made by our customers nor limit it.

add advanced footer controling of outgoing emails
It would be really fine to have the possibility to add a signature to email accounts (this idea was posted before and i even voted for this).
But what would be even more fine is the possibility of giving an advanced controling:
- signature at server-level | eg: "message was tested against spam by xyz-freemail.com"
- signature at domain-level (*@sld.tld) | eg: company xyz, street
- signature at user-level (user@sld.tld) | eg: regards mr. abc
Every "snippet" should be added from level | in this example:
"regards
mr. abccompany xyz
streetmessage was tested against spam by…

make SSL Certificates for mail services manageable from Plesk
To change SSL certs for mail services one has to manually change at least three files: (depending on system e.g.)
/etc/postfix/postfix_default.pem
/usr/share/imapd.pem
/usr/share/pop3d.pemThis is very confusion and not very usable, esp. as there are already a number of SSL ways to set certificates in Plesk (per domain, per ID, for the panel, as std. for all domains, ...)
This could be streamlined and a simple tickbox, like 'Set this certificate for mail services' would make the life of administrators much easier!
