  • 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.

Input Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32 Update #1

New Pleskian
Hi,

P.S. I think I posted in the wrong section, I have Plesk Obsidian 18.0.32 Update #1 .

I am migrating a bunch of websites from CentOS6 Plesk to CentOS7 Plesk and ran into an odd issue.

I can't send emails using the sendmail postfix wrapper to any addresses under local (i.e. hosted) domains in Plesk. There is no issue when using a proper email setup in email clients etc, it's only affecting "sendmail -t" type calls.

I have everything obvious configured. A proper domain, rDNS, full domain in the hosts file etc... I can run "sendmail -t" to craft a manual email and send to an external GMail address with no issues. If I run with "-v" flag, it does deliver a Mail Delivery Report with "Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; delivery via plesk_virtual: delivered via
plesk_virtual service". But no email comes through.

Everything else works perfectly.

It doesn't help that I am not that skilled in postfix administration and only know how to manually configure sendmail servers. I am probably missing something obvious.

I didn't have this issue in CentOS6 where it worked from the get go and I didn't need to fiddle with anything.

it's a big issue as I have custom CGI applications that send emails using sendmail system pipe calls.

Thank you for your help.

Cheers,
D

I don't think it is possible that a successful delivery is logged while the actually delivery did not take place.
Identify where your mailbox content is stored:
# grep PLESK_MAILNAMES_D /etc/psa/psa.conf
Then descend into that directory
# cd <mail directory>
Then look into the mailbox file to verify that the mail *really* was not delivered
# less <mail file>
and carefully examine if the missed mail cannot be found there.

There is also a chance that the mail has been downloaded and removed from the mailbox by a POP3 client, so that you don't see it in the mailbox on the server. That client could have auto-deleted it as spam or moved it into a spam folder.
