  • 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.

Problem with limits for outgoing emails

David_Lopez

New Pleskian
Hi,

I have a plesk 12 panel with outgoing email limit configured to 10 messages by hour.

I have a redirect account (An account named for example A, without mailbox, doing forward to another two internal accounts B and C). I doesn't know if these account are in use for outgoing email, but i think no.

The problem, are, these account are triggering the outgoing limit everyday on some hours. What's going on? Maybe the forwarding action are counting outgoing emails?

I need some method to check account when they trigger the limit to view who messages are trying to send (At least, headers, because i doesn't understand who messages are triggering limit). Also, if the problem are the forwarding, i need a method to not count these messages as outgoing ones, because i understand, if forwarding are triggered by an automated action / internal redirect / received message, these message doesn't are a outgoing one.


Thanks,
 
You can see in the maillog, when forwarders, autoresponders or mail sents and receives take place. Even if you decline a forward not as an outgoing action, it is still one, because one account sends and email to another one. A setting to "10" per hour is a rather tiny setting and this is reached pretty fast - I would consider to overthink this minimal configuration.
