Please provide an indication that my new installed Sophos extension is in use at the domain level
I cannot verify that the Sophos extension which I just purchased is activated indivdually for each of my mailboxes.
I received the following instructions from my host:
"Enable Sophos in Mail Server Settings
Navigate to Settings -> Mail Server Settings -> Antivirus -> Sophos to activate the feature.
Activate Sophos for Each Mailbox
Finally, Sophos must be activated individually for each mailbox to ensure coverage."However, Plesk shows I activated Sophos server wide, and the other shows no mention of Sophos under the…

Add SMIMEA Record in DNS
Add the SMIMEA record in the DNS-system.
This is required for encrypted email communication.There is no need to set up an automatic system, just the option to create an individual record.
The 63-character restriction must be removed, otherwise the hash of the address is too long and will be rejected.

Cloudflare records exclusions
A very cool feature would be to exclude individual records in the zone from sync / export to Cloudflare and the choice by auto-update to only update / create records without removing whole Cloudflare zone.
In my particular scenario I am serving mts-sts. via Cloudflare worker. Everytime Plesk update DNS zone on Cloudflare the particular mta-sts. record is deleted. This record can not be created in Plesk, because it is a worker trigger.

please add "dig txt acme-challenge.$1 |grep ^acme-challenge" to dns page ... to check the acme-challenge... or better, external check-url
1 voteThank you for your suggestion, Peter. If I understand correctly, you would like us to integrate ACME challenge checker directly into the DNS management page. Considering that the presence of the DNS record could be easily verified by running a dig command, or though an online tool such as DigWebInterface, please provide more details on what will be the collective benefit of integrating such a feature.
Thank you in advance.

add time-expiring fail2ban whitelist entries
Please add the ability to add IP addresses to a temporary whitelist with an expiration option. Occasionally, customers may need to troubleshoot issues (e.g., verifying their mail account credentials) after being banned by Fail2Ban. To prevent them from being immediately banned again, we whitelist them temporarily. However, over time, if you forget to remove them, the whitelist grows indefinitely. It would be beneficial if these entries could automatically expire and remove themselves after a set period.

synchronise Plesk server with Apple's Notes functions
To synchronize Apple Notes with an email server that allow integration with Apple’s native Notes app.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion. If I am not mistaken, Apple's Note App itself does not natively support direct synchronization with email servers in the traditional way (IMAP/Exchange syncing). Please correct me if I am wrong and provide me with the respective source of information for further review. Thank you in advance.

Add global setting for automatic mail.domain.tld certificate assignment
I'd like to propose a straightforward solution that has proven effective in the industry.
Introduce a global setting in Plesk:
[ ] Use mail.domain.tld subdomains for all mail certificates
ⓘ This setting will automatically assign mail certificates through mail.domain.tld subdomains for all subscriptions.Benefits of this approach:
- Provides a consistent, automated way to handle mail certificates.
- Solves the automatic renewal issue without requiring manual intervention.
- Simplifies subscription migration between Plesk servers. Customers won't need to adjust settings, reducing frustration for both clients and administrators.
- Adapts to current market trends, where clients often host their websites externally (e.g., on Wix) while…

View Full Content of Stuck Email in Queue
I would like to see the full content of the email that is stuck in the queue, rather than just the email headers and similar information. Currently, it is quite cumbersome to retrieve this information through the shell, and being able to view it directly would save considerable time and effort.

Backup manager: Include Docker Volumes
Some of my dockers are inside the sites' folders, inside httpd, but some have different permissions or user groups that sometimes do not allow the volume to be backed up, an example was postgresql, you can test, if there is even one advice on how you could add permission to the user or the system that makes the backup so that they can copy the files, for example.
Furthermore, it would be great to get a backup of the container volumes, I believe this would make pleks the only one and come out ahead of the other panels.

Be able to change URL structure of domains in Preview mode
The preview in "Quick Preview" mode only allow a basic preview, without usage of SSL/TLS certificates, as the URLS begin with the IP address, like this:
http://111.222.333.444/plesk-site-preview/www.some-website.com/The "Quick Preview on a domain name in Plesk" could be improved. It allows to select an existing domain as a "support" for previewing websites. This sounds promising, as a SSL/TLS certificate already exists on this domain name.
But the problem is that the preview Urls generated by Plesk now use a different structure based on subdomains, like this: http://some-website.com.212-83-133-74.preview-domain.com/
This is rendering this functionality cumbersome : need to add this "some-website.com.111-222-333-444" subdomain…

Listen on all IPs for all vhosts
Let the webserver for all vhosts listen on all IPs on a server. With Apache httpd you can use * instead of the IP (or list all IPs on a server). This would make it easier to migrate users between servers without having to manually check the IP to update the (external) DNS. This would also make it possible to prepare everything for IPv6 at the same time as you would only need to add AAAA records after this step.

Code Auto Indent
Automatically indenting code will be a very useful feature, similar to various other IDEs such as Notepad++ & VSCode to name a few. It will help in keeping the code aesthetic & clean and also allow the next person who will work on it to get a very quick understanding of the "flow of logic". Thank you.

Add IP Address and "non-existent mailbox" to plesk_saslauthd Authentication Logs
In the "maillog" program logs, which contain "server plesk_saslauthd" entries, the IP addresses are not recorded. During brute force attacks from multiple IPs, there are failed login attempts to non-existent mailboxes. While these attacks don't pose a direct threat, they consume server resources and could become dangerous if they target existing mailboxes.
I request that IP addresses be added to the "server plesk_saslauthd" logs, along with information about non-existent mailboxes, to improve filtering through fail2ban.
Current log:
Sep 20 08:14:00 server plesk_saslauthd[117757]: failed mail authentication attempt for user 'example@domain.com' (password len=14)Suggested log:

Keep custom outgoing mail limit in input box when turning on "unlimited"
Situation: When "unlimited" outgoing mail is turned on, a custom value previously present in outgoing mail limits is removed from the input box. When turning "unlimited" off, a user needs to re-type the previous content into the input box(es).
Why it should be easier: An outoing mail limit needs to e lifted for planned mass mailings. After the mailing was sent, the previous limit needs to be set again. However, this happens not immediately after the mailing. On servers with many users, the previous custom values need to be saved/noted manually so that the correct previous values can be restored.…

MIgration of Backups to Cheaper Alternatives
While you provide the ability to backup to different locations, whether on local disk, FTP, SMB share, or cloud you do not provide an ability to migrate backups through the tiers. First off local disk is the most expensive and you should only keep a small subset of backups. After that there should be an ability to migrate those backups to cheaper alternatives, like S3 storage, while continuing to preserve the metadata.
1 voteThank you for your input. The is already an option to configure backups with S3 storage through the Amazon S3 Backup extension:
As for the "ability to migrate backups through the tiers", unfortunately, I was not able to get a clear understanding on it. Hence, could you please provide more details and examples?
