  • 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.

Email malfunction after enabling greylisting

New Pleskian
Hi,

I'm using Plesk 12.5.30 on a virtual server with Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS. After I enabled greylisting filter for emails, all mails will be rejected and I can't receive emails anymore. Not only the first try of the foreign server to deliver mails fails, also any later try fails. If I disable greylisting, I can receive mails without any problem.


The log says something about "greylisting filter", but I don't know why and I don't know what's the problem.

Code:

The info (out of "ps aux") about process 3188:

Code:
postfix  3188  0.0  0.0  13744  1596 ?  R  03:40  0:00 /opt/psa/handlers/hooks/grey none name@sender.tld to@recipient.mail

Can anybody help me?

Thanks a lot.

Best regards.
