• 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.

Issue How Can We Customize Autodiscover Settings?

G J Piper

Regular Pleskian
I have the AutoDiscover turned on for my server and domains, but I need to customize it a bit.
I need to know where the files are located on the server that are used when it is served to clients?

ie: Some HTTP or PHP or XML file is used when the output of this is served:
Code:
https://anydomain.ext/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml

Can anyone tell me where these are served from on the server?
 
Found them! Modifying them does affect the output of all AutoDiscover and AutoConfig settings. Unless there is another place to put these files to override the default settings, the files will have to be modified every time there is a Plesk update I assume. Off to create a script to do it daily. ;-)

Code:
ls -lha /usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/mailconfig/
total 12K
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root  824 Oct 24 12:37 autoconfig.xml
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1.2K Oct 24 12:32 autodiscover.xml
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1.9K Oct 18 05:00 index.php
 
This is getting tedious having to re-modify the AutoDiscover files every time there is a Plesk update. I've created a script to do it, but this really should be in the GUI since it is easily changed globally just by modifying a few text files. Please vote for this feature here:

Change settings for mail autodiscover

We need to be able to specify the hostname prefix (like mail.domain.com) as well as the preferred email server type (IMAP or POP) for AutoDiscover output.
