  • 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.

RBLSMTPD Issues

InsertCoin

Basic Pleskian
Hi,

Appears that my server will not start smtp, simply stating:

Problems found:
The SMTP server service is switched off.
Solutions:
Restart the SMTP server service.

I cant get past this menu to the main server menu. I have tracked down the issue to being the rblsmtpd list and found a way to disable it but can not locate the file on the server:

I thought the reverse of the following would remove it:

In order to add rblsmtpd to your qmail installation, you must make some changes to the run file in /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd:

#!/bin/sh
QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild`
NOFILESGID=`id -g qmaild`
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -p -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb \
-u $QMAILDUID -g $NOFILESGID 0 smtp rblsmtpd /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1


But that file doesnt exist in that location as supervise is not installed on the server. Can anyone help me to disable rblsmtpd or locate the list it uses to remove the urls?
 
Plesk runs qmail using xinetd rather than the traditional daemontools that are recommended by the qmail community.

But you do not need to do anything to run files. When you disable rblsmtpd in the control panel it removes this (e.g. /usr/sbin/rblsmtpd -r zen.spamhaus.org -r list.dsbl.org -r dnsbl.njabl.org) from the /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_psa file for you.

So where is it in the control panel? In Server / Mail.
