  • 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 mails from amazon are blocked by Spam Filter greylist

PeterKi

Regular Pleskian
I have configured greylisting on the Tools & Settings -> Spam Filter page.
This used to work properly with amazon until the end of October but in the past weeks I noticed that mails from amazon don't get through anymore
From the mail logs I see that amazon uses different domains to send mails from, like so
a1-101.smtp-out.eu-west-1.amazonses.com
a1-117.smtp-out.eu-west-1.amazonses.com
a1-119.smtp-out.eu-west-1.amazonses.com
a1-11.smtp-out.eu-west-1.amazonses.com
a1-124.smtp-out.eu-west-1.amazonses.com
a1-129.smtp-out.eu-west-1.amazonses.com
a1-134.smtp-out.eu-west-1.amazonses.com
a1-139.smtp-out.eu-west-1.amazonses.com
...
Thus, if amazon resends a mail (because the greylist mechanism has rejected it in the 1st place) it is likely to be sent from a different server which again triggers the greylist reject.
So messages never get through.
If I do: /usr/local/psa/bin/grey_listing --info-server -status on
I don't see any amazon address on the "White domains patterns list:"

How can I get amazon mail servers back to work?

Sorry, I have selected the wrong forum.
This is a Plesk Obsidian for Linux topic.
Can some admin please move it to that forum?
