• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • 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.

E-mail and dedicated IP's. Plesk 10.4.x / postfix / Debian 6

New Pleskian
I've been searching and searching, found a lot of posts, suggestions and what not, but nothing seems to be working, so I'll give it a shot here.

I've got the following situation: (10.x.x.1 and bla.tld are of course "blanked" out to protect customer identity and stuff ;))

bla.tld uses a shared ip 10.x.x.1
2.smtp.bla.tld used a dedicated ip 10.x.x.100

the 2.smtp.bla.tld does not have any hosting applied, it only has 1 mailbox (smtp@2.smtp.bla.tld) which is used for authenticated SMTP using a lot of sender addresses which are not smtp@2.smtp.bla.tld. I use this account from a couple of webservers which have a local maildrop for the web application running on that machine and have an authenticated relay host, namely 2.smtp.bla.tld.

I can login, send e-mails, but the following thing happens: All mail is being sent from the shared 10.x.x.1 ipnumber. I really need all mail being sent through the smtp@2.smtp.bla.tld to have the 10.x.x.100 as it's sender ip and name. I can not get this to work.

I've even gone so far as to convert the /var/spool/postfix/plesk/sdd_transport_maps.db to cleartext using postalias -s and editing both bla.tld and 2.smtp.bla.tld to use the 10.x.x.100 ip, creating a new .db file and replacing the generated one, but of no avail, the mail keeps coming from the wrong IP.

What can I do to fix this?
