  • 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.

Resolved Change smtp sender that PMMCli-Daemon uses to send emails

Plesk Obsidian Version 18.0.43
Hi! two related questions:

How can I change the email account that the "PMMCli-Daemon" uses to send emails?

Also, is it possible to configure an external smtp account so that all the notifications a Plesk installation are sent using the external smpt service? I need to ensure maximum deliverability because now I'm missing some notifications that goes into the spam folder.
 
Hi,

Please check this file, it contains the options you're looking for:

/usr/local/psa/admin/share/pmmcli/pmmcli-rc.sample

Add them to the pmmcli-rc file, change the parameters, remove the '#' from the lines you need and it should work.

Code:
# Notification mail 'mail-from' parameter
#NOTIFICATION_MAIL_FROM 'Administrator'


# smtpserver name
#SMTPSERVER localhost

# AUTHREQUIRED param of smtpserver
#AUTHREQUIRED 0

# smtpserver user name (not required if AUTHREQUIRED=0)
#SMTPUSER user

# smtpserver user password (not required if AUTHREQUIRED=0)
#SMTPPASS pass
 
@Maarten. Which parameter did you use? Gmail credentials or a email hosted on the same server keeping localhost? And how to set the mail address? This is just servername+user+psw but no address? Thanks in advance!
