• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • 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.

QMail: mail user not recognized (anonymous)

Quentin Crambes

New Pleskian
Hello!

(Let's assume my hostname is ns1234.ip-12-123-456.abc and my (only) domain name is domain.com)

Since a few weeks, GMail blocks Emails sent by my server (before that it was not even going to spam),
I guess because the sender is anonymous@ns1234.ip-12-123-456.abc and they updated their policies or something.
I saw in Qmail logs the sentence GMail sends when your message is deemed as spam. (creating a filter in Gmail doesn't change anything)

So I created a mail address via Plesk->Mail->create Email address: "reporting@domain.com".
I am not sure if it is a Plesk, Qmail or PHP error but with the following headers I use in my message:

PHP:
$headers = "From: Reporting <reporting@domain.com>\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8";

the above sender address is always replaced by anonymous@ns1234.ip-12-123-456.abc...

I don't know if it is linked, but the tricky thing is that @domain.com Emails are being treated on a different server (the microsoft small business thing), so @domain.com is neither in rcpthosts nor virtualdomains files and treated as remote. Because if I set the "me" file as domain.com and also add domain.com in locals file, it will treat all @domain.com as local, which I don't want...

My goal: I would like to have the Email sent as reporting@domain.com (obviously in the message source, not just the display, that is okay) but keep the other @domain.com mails treated by the microsoft server.

Any clues? Thanks for reading this far anyway ;)

We are running on CentOS 6.6 and Plesk 11.0.9.
