autodiscover for iOS - Android mail systems
Add mail autodiscover functionality for iOS/OS & android mail clients please.
29 votesAutodiscover for iOS and Android has been available for a long while. Please see https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015529259 for details. It can be turned on in "E-Mail Settings" of a domain. Please see https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360009747280 for more on that.
When autodiscover is switched on, the (i) icon in the rightmost column of the mailbox list includes additional assistance for mail configuration on different operating systems and applications, such as a QR code for iOS devices.
Please let us know in the comments if you are missing anything from these functions.

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, allow…

Mail autodiscover with "no hosting" subscription
Mail autodiscover doesn't seems to work, when a subscription hasn't got a hosting! For example when a subscription only uses email but no website hosting.
Please fix this.

Deploy Tomcat application as ROOT contexto.
Now you can deploy a java application as any context (/foo, /foo2, ...) but it would be perfect to allow the deploy as ROOT (/).
18 votesSorry, but we are dropped out support of java and Tomcat technology in the latest versions of Plesk due to low demand and resource intensity of development.

crontab: don't create dir "/var/www/vhosts/chroot/*" in document root of the subscription (Plesk 12.* onCentOS 7.1)
Plesk (12.0.18 and 12.5) imports the folders from /var/www/vhosts/chroot/* in the document root of the subscription. That looks like this:

Password-Protected Directory outside of Document Root
Possibility to create a Password Protected Directory outside of Website's document root.
For example: httpsdocs instead of httpdocs
3 votesIf a directory is not within document root of a website, it cannot be accessed by the web server for that website. No further information was presented, why a web server password protection is needed for a directory that the webserver cannot access. We must decline this request.

27 votesStarting Plesk 18.0.66 we added the ability to stop accepting mail sent to preconfigured aliases such as root, postmaster, or anonymous on Plesk servers using Postfix or qmail as the mail server. By default, such emails are delivered to the Plesk administrator’s mailbox.
To allow accepting mail sent to one or more specific aliases, add the following lines to the panel.ini file, listing the desired aliases:
[mail] adminAliases = alias1 alias2 .. aliasNMail sent to aliases that are not listed will no longer be delivered to the Plesk administrator’s mailbox. For example, to allow accepting mail sent to the root and postmaster aliases, but not to any others, add the following:
[mail] adminAliases = root postmasterand then run the following command:
plesk repair mail -yThank you everyone for your suggestion and help to make Plesk better.

NodeJS (Linux): Change App/Doc Root Folder Warnings
Having for example "Document Root: /httpdocs" and "Application Root: /httpdocs/api" (where the NodeJS files are) actually works, only that the files in /httpdocs take precedence. So accessing for example "domain.com/api" from browser did not work as there's index.html in /httpdocs, but it works when tested with Postman.
So, I think the warning text can be changed accordingly.
I don't know what security implications does running both a website on /httpdocs and API on /httpdocs/api have, though.

Allow change of document root where App is installed
If you try to change a domain document root where an app is installed, you get the error: It is impossible to change document root because there are web applications installed on this website.
This is inflexible. If I create a staging development subdomain and install an App, and then point the main domain to the same directory, I can't remove the subdomain, even though the app is no longer used there:
- dev.mydomain.com, Document root: /mydomain.com
- www.mydomain.com, Document root: /mydomain.com
I should be able to change the development subdomain root, even though the app was installed…
1 voteWe recommend to use following staging method without using the same root directory https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/obsidian/customer-guide/websites-and-domains/extended-website-management/working-with-a-staging-site.66505/
We do not plan to change the behavior of the product due to the use of a non-standard staging method.

1 voteHello. If you can remove a directory in Plesk, then you can create it back by the same means you removed it – FTP, SSH or File Manager.
If you experience any difficulty with it, you need to ask assistance of your server admin / hoster.

Provide a link to change root password
It might just be me, but I can't seem to find a way of changing the root passowrd in Plesk. A link to it would be nice.

Allow customers to change Document root with out allowing them to manage the domain name
Service plans should be more granular, it should be possible to allow the customer to change the Document root without allowing them to manage the domain name, etc.
Basically the objective would be to have split the "Domains management" permission.
