• 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.

    Error in statistics, logs duplicated

    I think you have it backwards: They're *supposed* to be hard links! The problem arises when they are not! if they were hard links, rotating logs in one would reflect in the other, and there would be no duplication of space used... But that is *not* the case, rotating logs in one changes...

    Error in statistics, logs duplicated

    I am having the same issue in Plesk 11.5 Except, for me, all domains, regardless of when they were created, maintain logs in both the domain folder (/var/www/vhost/thedomain.com/logs), AND in the system folder (/var/www/vhost/system/thedomain.com/logs) This is extremely problematic as it seems...

    Email error with roundcube. SMTP Error (250): Authentication failed.

    for me, the solution was to set the following variables: $rcmail_config['smtp_server'] = '%t'; $rcmail_config['smtp_port'] = 25; //same as default $rcmail_config['smtp_user'] = '%u'; //same as default $rcmail_config['smtp_pass'] = '%p'; //same as default $rcmail_config['smtp_auth_type'] = 'LOGIN';

    Imap connection issues

    @DustenH Make sure you install the SSL cert properly.. There are 4 places where it must be installed: 1 - in the panel, you must install it as the default cert for your IP, and your vermillionclients.com domain MUST be the default domain for that IP (this is in the main server config area). 2 -...

    Imap connection issues

    @DustenH, you're very welcome, happy to help.. On a more general note, has anyone found that the solution proposed here solves the iPhone imap connection issues? just to sum up, the solution proposed is to use a valid SSL certificate, regardless of whether it is on a 'central' mail server...

    Imap connection issues

    Faris Raouf is right. Just to add to the list of SSL certificate providers, you can also use the free certificates at startssl.com. their certificates cover the top-level plus one subdomain, so i use: yourdomain.tld and mail.yourdomain.tld As Faris mentioned, you don't want to use...

    Imap connection issues

    @DustenH, I think you should try putting one of the domains on its own IP, and install some security certificates as i mention above (see here).. if that proves ok, then do so for each domain... This seems to have solved the problem for me (note that some iPhone may experience this issue...

    Imap connection issues

    Hi RobinL, You may want to try it for one or 2 domains -- pick the most problematic ones -- and see how it goes... i pay $1 per year per IP at knownhost (i really, really like them, and no, i'm not affiliated with them, aside from being a client). That doesn't seem like a huge hit to me...

    Imap connection issues

    Hi RobinL, i would very strongly recommend you install some valid SSL certificates; it's very easy, but it does require that your domain be on its own IP address. i posted elsewhere on this forum how to do this, and also posted this to a blog here: https://zconsulting.net/blog/ -- it's the...

    Mail SSL

    ok, i figured it out (thanks in large part to mconstable, and to this site). Here is how you bind a different security certificate to each IP. for POP/IMAP, all you have to do, as mconstable said, is add the certificates in the following format (where xx.xx.xx.xx is the IP address)...

    @mconstable: have you figured out how to get Postfix to use a different certificate for each IP? Thank you!

    Imap connection issues

    @Frater: i never even thought that courier-imap-ssl (the courier-imaps service) would use other limits for MAXPERIP and MAXDAEMONS. Just in case, i added these limits and restarted the service... we'll see if it makes any changes. As i've said before, this is an issue i've only ever...

    Imap connection issues

    Hello, i haven't checked this thread in a long time, and came back out of desperation... as i stated before, i doubt this particular issue has anything to do with MAXPERIP and MAXDAEMONS variables (once they have been raised to reasonable levels).. Has anyone made any progress on this...

    If any moderator is looking at this, is there a way to merge these two topics? Thank you

    Imap connection issues

    It's so strange that this problem is so prevalent, yet there are very few 'intelligent' discussions on this, and no real solutions to be found yet... I wonder if the folks at Parallels monitor these forums...
