  • 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.

Problems after changing qmail to Postfix

iLLogical

New Pleskian
Hello out there,

now it's the time to register myself at these forums and ask you a question:
I recently switched my Plesk installation from qmail to Postfix. Obviously everything went as expected, but after a few tests we have some strange complications with sending mails.

When I try to use SSL for connecting the SMTP server it fails with the error message: "No authentication method supported by the server"
Another strange thing is, that running the rebuild command for the config returns an error, but I can't reproduce why.

Code:
root@srv01 ~ # /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk
==> Checking for: mailsrv_conf_init... ok
==> Checking for: mail_handlers_init... ok
==> Checking for: mailsrv_entities_dump... ok
==> Checking for: mail_admin_aliases... ok
==> Checking for: mail_auth_dump... [B]fail[/B]
==> Checking for: mailman_lists_dump... ok
==> Checking for: mail_kav8_restore... ok
==> Checking for: mail_responder_restore... ok
==> Checking for: vhostidmng... ok
==> Checking for: mail_postfix_transport_restore... ok
==> Checking for: mail_spam_restore... ok
==> Checking for: mail_grey_restore... ok
==> Checking for: mail_mailbox_restore... ok
==> Checking for: mail_spf_restore... ok
==> Checking for: mail_dk_restore... ok
==> Checking for: mail_drweb_restore... not exists
Errors occured in mail restore procedure
Some utilities have exited with errors:
  /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/mail_auth_dump

Looking up the exit code of this script returns the following

Code:
root@srv01 ~ # /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/mail_auth_dump; echo $?;
255

Have anybody any kind of idea what I could do to fix these problems?

Best regards,
iLLogical
 
There only seems a problem with SpamAssasin

Nov 19 07:42:32 srv01 spamd[8336]: error creating a DNS resolver socket: Network is unreachable at /usr/share/perl5/Mail/SpamAssassin/DnsResolver.pm line 235.
Nov 19 07:42:32 srv01 spamd[8336]: plugin: eval failed: error closing socket: Bad file descriptor at /usr/share/perl5/Mail/SpamAssassin/DnsResolver.pm line 568.
Nov 19 07:48:28 srv01 spamd[8337]: plugin: eval failed: error closing socket: Bad file descriptor at /usr/share/perl5/Mail/SpamAssassin/DnsResolver.pm line 568, <GEN12> line 23.

But I can't reproduce why the mchk is throwing an error at the auth-section.
It only happend, that sometimes the SSL-Authentication with Microsoft Outlook @ Windows didn't work.
At Android and Mac Outlook it works.
