  • 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.

Postfix spam

Hello,

i have Plesk 9.3.0 installed on a Suse 64bit.
I also have postfix 2.5.1 installed.
Lately, i have 3 incidents of spam THROUGH my server. Below are the logs:
==============
Oct 6 08:55:33 xxxx postfix/qmgr[25982]: 176402016A3A: from=<CartaSi_services@cartasi.it>, size=8438, nrcpt=50 (queue active)
Oct 6 08:55:33 xxxx postfix/qmgr[25982]: 1E6C02016AAA: from=<CartaSi_services@cartasi.it>, size=8438, nrcpt=50 (queue active)
Oct 6 08:55:33 xxxx postfix/qmgr[25982]: E85D12016DA7: from=<CartaSi_services@cartasi.it>, size=8438, nrcpt=50 (queue active)
Oct 6 08:55:33 xxxx postfix/qmgr[25982]: 668F02017603: from=<CartaSi_services@cartasi.it>, size=8438, nrcpt=50 (queue active)
Oct 6 08:55:33 xxxx postfix/qmgr[25982]: B3A012016DA6: from=<CartaSi_services@cartasi.it>, size=8438, nrcpt=50 (queue active)
==============
The strange is that at the log file, there is NO postfix/smtpd BEFORE the postfix/qmgr and becauce of that i can't find how he manage to spam through my server.
I searched for rootkits, none. For any php progs, none.
My relay is closed (smtp through authorization).
Is there a way to find how he manage to spam?
Can i upgrade the postfix without breaking the PLESK?

Please, advice.

Thank you.

Zero.
