• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • 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 IP check Plesk and Postfix?

While I did search a bit my question would be if it's possible to reject/discard SMTP connections to postfix which have

a) no FQDN associated with the IP address of the sender
b) FQDN points to different HOST then HELO

It would be great to have a solution for a). Better would be a & b ;)

Ups: Plesk 10.3 and Centos 5.6
 
Save a copy of main.cf, you can always revert.

Be aware plesk re-writes this, so once you have it finalized with all your changes, save a copy and check it time to time.

As long as you don't start changing the plesk paths, it won't break.

Make sure you /etc/init.d/postfix restart after your changes or they will not take effect.

I have got whitelists running on mine from a source listing IPs used by ISPs, this helps you stop blacklisting your users using these addresses. I am not near a PC now (on my iPad), I can get you the details out of my main.cf for these. As long as your whitelisting runs first in the line, the RBLs won't kill off those addresses.

Cheers,
 
Thanks for the help and it would be nice to see some of your entries. And a lot of thanks for letting me know that indeed Plesk rewrites this as soon I assume as I change some settings of the Mail configuration.
 
Thanks

Thanks for sharing the link on Reverse IP check Plesk and Postfix. can you tell me more about smtp_tls_protocols (default: !SSLv2)??? Thank you. :)
