• 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.

Question Email forwarding with SES

janewi

New Pleskian
Hi everyone!

Postfix on our server is configured to send outgoing emails via Amazon SES. However, when forwarding emails for an email address of a domain hosted on the Plesk server to an email address not hosted on our servers, SES will refuse to deliver the email as the sender cannot be authorized. While this behaviour is technically correct (the sender address is not a domain managed by the server so the message shouldn't allowed to be sent), it prevents me from using the forwarding feature in Plesk with external domains.

To work around this, I was thinking about...
  • ... using a different SMTP relay for sending when forwarding (possibly even just sending it directly from the local server if that is possible), or
  • ... rewriting the email headers when forwarding somehow
Do any of you other suggestion on how to work around this? How could I implement any of it?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Have you solved it yet? I am also having a similar problem. Please share the solution. Thanks.
