Ubuntu 14.04 with Plesk 12 (10 Domain License).Using this for mail only... multiple domains.Postfix and Dovecot installed. Trying to figure out how to do:
- SASL Auth (Dovecot) - TLS - want above two to be mandatory... no plain text auth and no unencrypted connections.
How do I achieve this with Plesk 12?I have found countless how-to's about doing this with Vanilla (non Plesk) installs with the same server software. However, Postfix main.cf and master.cf both appear to have specific Plesk modificatuons. Same thing for the related Dovecot conf files... also have Plesk specific modifications.
I see no way to enable the desired settings from the Plesk Panel. Can't achieve this within the Panel but also can't modify the conf files without potentially breaking some Plesk-specific functionality? My original hope in purchasing the Plesk license was to make administration of the mail server easier. Unfortunately, I'm struggling to do this now and may have already had this figured out had I not bothered with the Panel.
I've just setup CentOS 6.6 with Plesk at my Hoster OVH. Now when I want to connect to the smtp server I get following message:
Code: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: encryption needed to use mechanism SASL auth is enabled in the main.cf also submission. I connect to tls://smtp.example.com:587 with my email and password.
on a fresh debian 7 64bit openvz system we actually have a problem with the new plesk 12 feature of limiting outgoing mails.We migrated about 25 systems to plesk, this is the first that makes problems.If limiting outgoing mails is activated (i double-checked all possible checkboxes in plesk) a fresh mailbox gives us the following error while trying to send via smtp:
Aug 15 13:09:32 2d4 postfix/smtpd[8645]: connect from unknown[XX.XX.XX.XX] Aug 15 13:09:32 2d4 postfix/smtpd[8645]: E9AF61C58851: client=unknown[XX.XX.XX.XX], sasl_method=PLAIN, sasl_username=XX@XXX.XX Aug 15 13:09:32 2d4 greylisting filter[8651]: Starting greylisting filter... Aug 15 13:09:32 2d4 /usr/lib/plesk-9.0/psa-pc-remote[8611]: handlers_stderr: SKIP
[code]....
After deactivating the feature all mail is sent without any problems. We use postfix + dovecot.
Postfix in the /etc/postfix/main.cf I added the following configuration parameter recipient_delimiter = + Managed a sieve script in webmail which contains the following: 1: # Sieve Filter 2: # Erzeugt von Ingo (http://www.horde.org/apps/ingo/) (03.02.2015, 02:53:39) 3: require "fileinto"; 4: # Plustest 5: if address :all :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "To" "+plustest" { 6: fileinto "INBOX.plustest"; 7: stop; 8: }
I created a folder in my INBOX with the name plustest, now I sent me an email from an outside freemail-account to see if it works. In the logfile /var/log/maillog I can see the following entry:
Feb 3 15:06:25 mail postfix-local[18290]: cannot chdir to mailname dir <name>+plustest: No such file or directory Feb 3 15:06:25 mail postfix-local[18290]: Unknown user: <name>+plustest@<dom.tld> Feb 3 15:06:25 mail postfix/pipe[17708]: 0ECAF4C1B3: to=<name+plustest@dom.tld>, orig_to=<aliasname+plustest@dom.tld>, relay=plesk_virtual, delay=0.61, delays=0.52/0/0/0.09, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered via plesk_virtual service)
I changed my real name to <name> and my domainname to <dom.tld> in this post.
I just upgraded from Plesk 11.x to 12.0.18 and was eager to try the new sieve functions. I used the normal Plesk Updates/Upgrades tool to change the imap server from Courier to Dovecot. However, Dovecot will not start. It gives an error about /etc/dovecot/private/ssl-cert-and-key.pem missing.
i use Plesk on a vserver which was offering it in version 11.x, i upgraded to 12.0.18, then i installed Dovecote on the panel. Everything went fine. Mail server is working.BUT sieve does not allow me to login and create filters.I tried telnet against 4190, and it works:
Connected to mail.xxxxxxxx.xxx. Escape character is '^]'. "IMPLEMENTATION" "Dovecot Pigeonhole" "SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave imapflags notify" "NOTIFY" "mailto" "SASL" "PLAIN LOGIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5" "STARTTLS" "VERSION" "1.0" OK "Dovecot ready."
But when i use my sieve plugin for thunderbird OR access plesk's webmailclient Roundcube opening the filter module, it doesnt work. On Thunderbird i see the loading animation, thats it. On Roundcube it says "Unable to connect to sieve server".
Looks like something is missing. I can definitely access 4190 on my server from anywhere. So no firewall issue. I didnt change anything on configs, since plesk is handling it.Roundcube log doesnt give me anything. I dont even see logs added (to syslog or mail.*) while i try to connect.
if i create a new mailaccount in the power-user panel and i dont log in into the webmailer, so the "subscription" file is not created.
that means there is no way to sent emails with the new created account with external mail clients (Thunderbird), because there is no "sent" or "drafts" folder.
the problem disappears, if i log into the webmailer after creating a new mailaccount.
is there any other way to fix this bug? i want plesk 12 to create the "standard" folders (Trash, Drafts, Sent, Spam) automatically.
Every time i use Dovecot secure IMAP server with Sieve support.I can not receive emails note. Upgraded from 11.5 to 12

I know I'm probably doing something wrong, but I cannot get Android KitKat phones to authenticate via IMAP to my Plesk 12 server (straight out of the box). Not sure if it is an issue with standard dovecot config or Android, but the only way I can get them to connect is via pop3.
I have set up a vacation filter in Horde, but only in once in a while it really returns a vacation message, depending on who is sending an email. In most cases,the message arrives without triggering a response.The messagelog shows two scenarios, one for an successful vacation response and one for emails that fail to trigger a response.Sucessful event:
Oct 9 10:48:24 server dovecot: service=lda, user=xyz@mydomain.com, ip=[]. sieve: msgid=<408-EAS2941777BF41EEBE6640B691D3A00@axy.gbl>: sent vacation response to <guntherk@hotmail.com> and then Oct 9 10:48:24 server qmail: 1412844504.308454 starting delivery 21782: msg 33566019 to remote abc@externaldomain.com then the message is stored into the users inbox.
Unsuccessful event: Oct 9 10:55:39 server dovecot: service=lda, user=xyz@mydomain.com, ip=[]. sieve: msgid=<trinity-90b5e87d-183b-49b8-8e3e-d2f98b96df3e-1412844932925@uvw-com>: discarded vacation reply to <> then the message is stored into the users inbox.
The actual version of Plesk (v12.0.18) on Centos 6.5 with Dovecot & Qmail is beeing used.
I have had Roundcube installed and I went and changed the mail server from Courier to Dovecot. Is the installation of Dovecot supposed to make the 'Filters' tab appear in RoundCube or is there more that is supposed to be done?I tried reinstalling Dovecot & Roundcube and the settings still do not appear.
I use for my client the webmail Roundcube.. How to I set for Auto Deleting The Mails From Trash Folder and Junk with mail server Dovecot after 30 days?
is it possible to set Auth .htpasswd if a specific file and not the directory. example admin access [url]and a Auth User/Pass window appears. I need for /sec/ to be unprotected for image loading so a complete directory protection is not an option.
I'd like to describe an issue and see if this sounds familiar to anyone, or if there is a solution that I have not thought of yet.
CAUSE: My ISP (yeah, it's comcast) began blocking port 25 inbound so my personal mail server was no longer receiving mail.
RESOLUTION: I worked through a new DNS re-router to change the port that would now receive mail: from port 25 to port 587. It took me a while to get the routes pointed correctly, but I finally got the messages to route, get through my firewall, and hit the mail server.
NEW PROBLEM: After some IP and DNS routing issues, I finally got things to work, the email that gets sent finally arrives at my mail server. However, the mail server (Alt-N MDaemon) now requires AUTH from the incoming DNS re-direct.
BIG QUESTION: How do I configure MDaemon mail server (or any other mail server, for that matter) to accept the mail from the new re-route server? Mail now re-directed to the new port ALWAYS comes from that route (mx-routes01.editdns.net). Where in the configuration settings of MDaemon do I set it up? I've tried including the host name and the IP address into every WhiteList list I can find, added it to the trusted host name list and everything. I'm at a loss, since it's impossilbe to configure the re-route server to provide AUTH credentials to my mail server. MDaemon now replys to every mail reuqest with : 530
Authentication required (in reply to MAIL FROM command)
Forbidden You don't have permission to access /_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.exe on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
I have done the following: uninstalled /re installed extensions via whm (same error)
.htaccess is default frontpage's code only, nothing else
/scripts/chownpublichtmls
dns zone propagated fully, correct (today)
.htaccess file:

I'm trying to get exception from auth (.htpasswd ) for one specific URL, but seems, that it does not work with my Rewriting rules. Disabling RewriteEngine solving auth problem. My .htaccess:
I've been trying to set up Postfix to send email for the past few days. I've managed to get it to ask for a username and password, in order to try and send mail to an external domain
I can receive email fine on the server, but I can't send email out
I have Cpanel, with the "Prevent Nobody from sending emails" in the WHM>Tweak Settings enabled.
I want to force sendmail to use SMPT auth.. so that all mails sent are sent via SMPT and an authenticated POP user. I guess this will help in limiting the "The maximum each domain can send out per hour" setting.
I would expect the second - to be replaced by the logged in user. The doc says, the user is logged if the document is protected. I do protect the whole directory using directory match. Without log in I fail to retrieve the document in question.
what is this and what should i do i don`t use any SSL
Certificate for dovecot on server.test.com was expired and a self signed one was created to replace it. You should install a new certifcate as soon as possible to replace the self signed one that was installed to replaced the expired one. You can install a new certificate in WHM under "Manager Service SSL Certificates", or by clicking this link: [url]
