• 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.

Forwarded to devs Wrong DNS settings for alias domain

Atramasis

Basic Pleskian
TITLE:
Wrong DNS settings for alias domain
PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE:
Plesk Onyx 17.5.3 #2 on Ubuntu 16.04
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
When the <domain> variable in the DNS template is used, it is not always correctly set in the DNS settings for an alias domain. CNAME is correct, but e.g. the TXT record for DMARC can include an email address and has to be at the domain of the zone. Currently the main domain is used.​
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Set a DNS templat with a TXT record:
v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:admin@<domain>

Use a domain and an alias domain with the setting "Synchronize DNS zone with the primary domain".
Apply template to main domain.​
ACTUAL RESULT:
The DNS zone for the alias domain has a TXT record:
v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:admin@maindomain.com​
EXPECTED RESULT:
All <domain> variables from the template should be replaced with the alias domain.
The DNS zone for the alias domain should have a TXT record:
v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:admin@aliasdomain.com

In this case it is a requirement for a correct DMARC setting.​
ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
I think it is a bug. It can be circumvented now by deselecting the option "Synchronize DNS zone with the primary domain".
