• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

    Specific Domain send spam with unknown way....

    There are ways to bypass disabling the use of certain functions depending on the PHP version used. Most often these scripts that get dropped in have a whole set of exploits for PHP/Apache and even the OS itself.

    Specific Domain send spam with unknown way....

    Look for multiple POSTs to the same script or file. Then search the http(s)docs directory for scripts that look suspicious such as PHP scripts that start with eval(), gzinflate(), str_rot13(), str_replace() or base64_decode(). Also try sorting by date modified in the web directory to see what...

    Problems with Horde sending attachments and forwarding emails

    The links you posted are from 2005, I don't think this applies to the current version of Horde. There are many others on the forums that have this same issue, our customers are getting frustrated not being able to send any attachments from Horde... The problem did not start until we updated to...
