  1. Add limits to backup scheduling

    We have some users abusing the Plesk backup functionality. For example, they schedule hourly backups with sites that are multiple gigabytes in size. When we have a couple of those users, our servers are running scheduled backups all day causing 100% IO-wait load.

    It would be great if Administrator can limit the frequency of user backups, eg. a limit of once a day, once a week, once a month.

    We currently disable user backup functionality to prevent our machines running backups all day.

  2. 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:

    1. signature at server-level | eg: "message was tested against spam by xyz-freemail.com"
    2. signature at domain-level (*@sld.tld) | eg: company xyz, street
    3. signature at user-level (user@sld.tld) | eg: regards mr. abc

    Every "snippet" should be added from level | in this example:

    "regards
    mr. abc

    company xyz
    street

    message was tested against spam by…

  3. Secure Plesk mail servers with Modern authentication

    Microsoft is retiring Basic Authentication soon, which means servers that do not use Modern Authentication (OAuth, 2FA, MFA, etc.) will not be able to use its mail client Outlook.

    I suggest you add an option to secure Plesk's mail servers with Modern Authentication, for example by integrating it with third party apps such as Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, Duo, Okta, etc..

  4. An option to limit a number of full backups via CLI

  7. Make the limits for CPU, Memory and Disk (cgroups) customizable per reseller in order lock resources available for reseller's plans

    At the moment you cannot lock system resources available to the reseller. It could be useful to limit the cgroups resources available to the resellers when creating the reseller plan, in order to not allow the creation of unlimited service plans to be assigned to the reseller customers. It could be useful to limit any resource uverusing.

  11. Mail quota won't suspend the subscription

    It would be a very useful feature to have an option to configure the 'Mailbox size' limits (Service Plans > select a plan > Resources), so when the limit was reached, the subscription won't getting suspended, but all messages that are exceeded the size limit will bounce with an error message.

  13. Fully Customizable Autodiscover Settings

    Could you please allow some (or all) of the new Obsidian Autodiscover settings to be customizable at a Subscription or Domain level? Here is a list of things we need:

    1) Specify POP or IMAP or BOTH incoming server types.
    2) Specify custom domain prefixes for incoming and outgoing servers. (ie: mail.domain.ext or smtp.domain.ext or etc, etc...)
    3) Specify custom port numbers for both incoming and outgoing servers. (so we may specify exactly what kind of security is enabled or not)
    4) Any other settings that can be customized but are of lesser importance.

    Please, if you are concerned,…

  14. Enable sending e-mails to same domain on external server even if Mail service is enabled for a domain

    As more and more customers move to G Suite and Office 365, there is a need to send authenticated emails from local SMTP to external server that handles same domain.

    Lets say example.com has a WordPress installation that sends notifications, order confirmations, form confirmations, ... to avoid spam and meet best practices, I will create local e-mail account mail@example.com.

    If domain has G Suite hosting info@example.com, emails from mail@example.com will not be delivered, because of Plesk's setup.

    As long as mail is enabled locally, one will get error: Recipient address rejected:…

    Since early 2023 a third option between "Enabled" and "Not configured" for the "Mail Settings" in a domain was added: "Disabled for incoming mail". This lets you send emails from your domain through sendmail with authentication and also lets you send mails through the PHP mail() function, but it does not deliver these mails locally. This solves the issue where mail domains are located elsewhere while a website generates emails from forms or other application scenarios.

    We'll be happy to read your comments if you have additional requirements.

  20. Implement push notifications to iOS devices from mail server

    Implement push notifications to iOS devices from mail server.

    Here are details of what I mean: using a patched version of Dovecot and a small Perl script, it's possible to get native Apple push notifications for new mail using the stock iOS mail client. This is accomplished by mimicking Apple's XAPPLEPUSHSERVICE IMAP extension for Dovecot used in macOS Server, whose source code is published on the Apple Open Source website. See more details here: http://bit.ly/2H8NERJ
