• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • 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.

Strange mail problem

We are using plesk 6.5.2 for windows web hosting, however, we are not using mailenable for opening email accounts for users. MX record is never pointed to the plesk server at all, however, some emails are routed to plesk machine.

Let me take an example

domain.com dns is using some other machine, unrelated to plesk.

domain.com A <plesk machine>
www.domain.com A <plesk machine>
mail.domain.com A <imail server>
domain.com MX <imail server>

dns service, mail service turn off in plesk, but i am force to input a catchall address for the domain mail service...

strange some email reaches that catch all account. the email are sent via outlook, and are personal emails, not spam.

Another client of mine, use a newly installed plesk server, not using its dns and mail service, also receive mails from plesk servers......strange! MX of the domain is not pointed to plesk at all, how come it can "eat " the email?

we found plesk suport, but not reply yet...any ideas?
