• 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.

  • 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.

Looking for mailmng documentation

I've tried to locate some definitive documentation on Plesk 11 custom mail handlers, but failed quite miserably.

The documentation for Plesk 8.2 has some information, but is outdated of course:

http://download1.swsoft.com/Plesk/Plesk8.2/Doc/plesk-8.2-unix-mod-guide/38612.htm
http://download1.swsoft.com/Plesk/Plesk8.2/Doc/plesk-8.2-unix-mod-api/38849.htm

Sadly I can't find any documentation for the currently supported versions of Plesk (9-11). In fact, mailmng is not mentioned at all in the Plesk 11 Command Line Reference: http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/PP11/11.0/Doc/en-US/online/plesk-unix-cli/ But the mailmng command is still available...
 
Output of # /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/mailmng --help-commands is not enough for you?
 
No, it isn't.

/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/mailmng --add-handler --help does explain the different options and possible values involved, but it's not clear to me what they do, what the expected output of a mail handler executable is, etc.

Why was there documentation on custom mail handlers for Plesk 8, but was it removed for supported recent versions of Plesk?
 
Because we do not recommend to use utilities from /usr/local/psa/admin/(s)bin/ It is internal Plesk utilites. Utilities for customers can be used from /usr/local/psa/(s)bin/ and they are documented well.
 
Let's say I'm a developer wanting to add a custom mail handler, where would I go for documentation then?
