  • 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.

Presence Builder and externa mail server

GuilhermeX

New Pleskian
Hi,

I have Plesk Panel installed in server 1 and mailenable in server2. I disabled mail service in server 1 and configured external mail (by the way, I cannot start it back) - Tools & Settings -> Mail -> External SMTP Server to my server 2.
Every contact form created with Presence Builder never worked, and I do not know why. Is there any work around? When Plesk is going to handle e-mail forms with a PHP file?
 
I can suggest you check php.ini for site's php and correct there something like:

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/smtp
SMTP = localhost
; http://php.net/smtp-port
smtp_port = 25

; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/sendmail-from
;sendmail_from = me@example.com
sendmail_from = sdfgsdf@ert.ert

but note, it will work only in case if you have enabled open relay on external mail server.

Thanks for your answer.

All forms is suppose to send e-mails to a local account, I mean, to site owner account, so it is not necessary to relay to outside. My windows is 208R2 64bits. any way, I try the up solution and it did not work. I change PHP.INI and reboot the server, but it did not work.
Do you have any other suggestion?
 
is sendmail function enable on your server? sometime hosting companies blocks sendmail for spamming.

There is no sendmail in windows version. The Zend mail does the job. I solved the problem by open relay on server 1 to server 2 and limiting the amount of messages server 1 can relay from server 2.
