  • 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.

Send from domain IP addresses and use domain names in SMTP greeting

Greg Sims

Basic Pleskian
TITLE:
Send from domain IP addresses and use domain names in SMTP greeting
PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE:
CentOS Linux 7.3.1611 (Core)‬
12.5.30 Update #62
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
We set the following option in Mail Settings at the server level:

"Send from domain IP addresses and use domain names in SMTP greeting"

We can see /etc/postfix/master.cf is updated with additional configuration data including smtp_bind_address and smtp_helo_name. This information matches our domains and associated IP addresses.

We distributed email using mailman early this morning. I reviewed the headers of the resulting emails. They were sent from the IP address associated with the Server instead of the IP address associated with the Domain.​
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
  • Mail setting to: "Send from domain IP addresses and use domain names in SMTP greeting"
  • create a domain with an ip address that is different than the server ip address
  • review configuration in /etc/postfix/master.cf
  • create a mailman distribution list for the new domain with one test email address
  • send an email to the mailman address for distribution
  • review the headers of the resulting email -- specifically the sending IP Address
ACTUAL RESULT:
Email sent from Server IP Address​
EXPECTED RESULT:
Email sent from Domain IP Address​
