  • 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.

How to enable DKIM-signature?

pablov1

New Pleskian
I've enabled the DomainKeys-Signature in my server.

Now I want to enable DKIM, how?

==========================================================
Summary of Results

SpamAssassin check: ham

thank you
 
Hi pablov1,

There is no DKIM automation in Plesk 11.
In order to use DKIM you should:
1) manually add proper TXT records in mail domain
2) enable DKIM in your mail server software

Hi Alexey,

Could you please go into more detail :

- concerning TXT record sytax

- enabling DKIM for mail server sofrware (for me = ubuntu qmail)?

(I.E. are there plesk tutos on this topic or I've gotta go hunting on google ?)

Thanks
 
Hi enzo2424,

- concerning TXT record sytax
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DomainKeys_Identified_Mail
The complex part of this record - it contains public key that used by other parties to verify origin of a email, sent from this domain.

- enabling DKIM for mail server sofrware (for me = ubuntu qmail)?
Current Plesk Qmail component does not support DKIM, only DomainKeys (previous edition of DNS domain to an email sender verification)
Thus, right now there is no support of DKIM in Plesk 11.0 and Plesk 11.5

There is Qmail patch that enables DKIM: http://notes.sagredo.eu/node/92
However it is not supported by Plesk. Thus, you will need to build and install Qmail manually and then use it without management from Plesk control panel.

Hello Plesk Team,

I have Parallels Plesk Panel v11.5.30_build115130819.13 os_CentOS 6
with mail server as postfix 2.8.14-13040119

How to enable DKIM-signature for outgoing email?

Please Provide some solution to this even if you have NOT implemented in your Plesk 11.5.
as our users emails are bouncing back due to this and we have to migrate them from plesk to
cpanel based server.
 
BTW, it is Plesk for Windows forum's section. Please stop posting unix related questions here.

You can use mentioned Qmail patch and KB article http://kb.parallels.com/1161 for implementing DKIM on your Plesk server.
