  • 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.

1 Server, 2 IP's, 5 Domains - external DNS provider | SMTP Reverse DNS Mismatch

OrinocoDelta

Basic Pleskian
Hello - i do not come forward and i tried everything that i found at Google... Maybe one of you or Parallels team can help me. Thank you so much!

Scenario:

1 Server - 2 IP's (shared: ###.###.###.001 and dedicated: ###.###.###.002)
5 Domains (domain1.tld, domain2.tld, domain3.tld, domain4.tld, domain5.tld)

What i have done so far:
a) i changed the hostname to xyz.myhostname.tld, i also set the reverse dns in starto config area to point to my hostname, also a entry at my dns provider is done. I changed the hostname in Plesk panel

b) domain5.tld is set to my dedicated IP, ###.###.###.002
all other domains are set to shared IP

c) in Plesk panel under Server-Wide Mail Settings i have set: Send from domain IP addresses and use domain names in SMTP greeting

Everything seems to work correct, but if i check domain5.tld (Dedicated IP) mxtoolboox.com i get this error:

"SMTP Reverse DNS Mismatch, Warning - Reverse DNS does not match SMTP Banner"
"SMTP Banner Check, OK - dedicated IP resolves to domain5.tld"


Code:
Connecting to ###.###.###.002

EHLO MXTB-PWS3.mxtoolbox.com
250-xyz.myhostname.tld

RCPT TO: <test@example.com>
454 4.7.1 <test@example.com>: Relay access denied [780 ms]

What i miss here and what i have to do?

One good thing happen, before (domain5.tld) was hosted by shared IP and all send E-Mails are marked as spam from Google. Now - send E-Mails are not marked as spam!

Any suggestion, any ways i can try and follow?
 
Just to double check that your provider properly updated the PTR record (they would have had to add two, one for your primary domain xyz.myhostname.tld on ###.###.###.001, and one for domain5.tld on ###.###.###.002), have you pinged your ###.###.###.002 IP address to see what it resolves to?

For instance in a command prompt:

ping -a ###.###.###.002

should include your domain5.tld value in the response.
