  • 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 sending from wrong IPv6 address

LloydD

Basic Pleskian
Hi everyone,
I hope someone here can help me.
I have 2x consecutive IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on my server, the first of each is assigned to our main domain and the name of our VPS.
But for some reason qmail has taken it upon itself to send from the secondary IPv6 address, everything is fine on the ipv4 side of things.
We running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS with Plesk 10.4.4 MU 41 on a Virtuosso Container., does anyone know how I can change this so it's sending from the correct IPv6 address?
Thanks in advance for any help
Kind regards

Lloyd
 
There is no ability to select ip adress with qmail.
If you need this, you should install postfix 2.7 or highter and use it for mail sending.

Yeah, I ended up installing postfix on Friday, but by default it sends from the second ipv6 address to.
So I have had to bind it to the main server ip.

/etc/postfix/main.cf >
smtp_bind_address = 192.168.1.10
smtp_bind_address6 = your_ipv6_address
