• 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.

Reverse DNS (more) active in 8.1 ?

Hello people,

After the upgrade from Plesk 7.6 to 8.1, I noticed several sites started to reject some mail they received. After I looked a little bit more in detail, it seems to me that reverse DNS is now active on the mail sites.

Is this a new functionality in 8.1 or has it simply been switched on by default in the new version ? Can it be turned off as well ?

I looked into the new documentation, but found nothing specific on this...

I have never looked at this in detail so anybody care to comment a little bit on this ?

Regards,

Mav.
 
plesk activates reverse dns zones in 8.1. and in all previous versions.
unfortunately there is not the possibility to turn off reverse zone for domain.
 
While I do not have a suggested fix for disabling RDNS on existing sites for Windows (I do have a fix for Linux but am yet to test it on Windows), ensure that you remove the /24 PTR record from your DNS templates.

This will prevent new domains from being configured with RDNS.
