Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Postfix - Outgoing Mail From Exclusive IP Addresses
Sep 3, 2014I m trying to get the feature "Outgoing Mail from Exclusive IP Addresses" working, as with an updated Postfix configuration the menu entry for this functions does not appear anymore.
Maybe i am missing something in my configuration that tells Plesk to not show it anymore.

We only changed main.cfnd here is the configuration file (please note that the formatting was a bit corrupted by the plesk panel ):

How To Change Outgoing HELO
Jun 30, 2009Problem: I am using to my Centos/Exim/Cpanel server to relay emails. The person who receives my email sees a helo that captures my ISP IP address and lastly the mail server for my domain along with its IP.
My ISP (Verizon) IP is constantly being flagged as a spam source by a variety of RBL's.
My domains have never sent spam and I only send a low volume of emails.
How can I remove my ISP helo IP address from being added to my outgoing email so that the only IP is the IP of domain sending the email?

Does Switching IP Addresses Change DNS?
May 12, 2005Recently my "crappy" hosting company decided it would upgrade the servers so I can't send them requests, use the control panel (as its being upgraded) and I really, really want to transfer my account from them to my new host.
Even though I pressed the button to transfer my account, it still hasn't happened - I've written letters, sent emails, done everything I can think of.
My last resort is through Nominet, and changing the IPS tag of my domain name (which runs out pretty soon) to 123-REG (or another IPS tag renewer).
My question is -- if I use Nominet to change my IPS tag on my behalf - would my hosting company still have the DNS settings? Can I still change them - or would it remain in their hands? - (I'm aware that I'd still be liable for outstanding fees, bills, etc).
Change Server IP Addresses

I have DDoS and my DC said that they can only change my IPs to new.
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Outgoing Mail Control - Clients Can't Change Password
Jan 12, 2015I have set the values for outgoing mail control low enough to catch the problems without affecting all but one of my clients. I have given him increased limits on certain of his mailboxes.
However when he wants to modify the mailbox, for example change the password he gets the following error.
The maximum number of outgoing email messages (in a pink box)
"The value must be in the range 0..50. Only the Plesk administrator can adjust this setting."
He cannot change the password for this mailbox.
Is there anyway of setting a custom limit on an account and also allow the client to retain the ability to reset his own password.
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Change Domain Name For Incoming / Outgoing Mail Server
Mar 11, 2015I wonder if there is any chance to change the domain that is being shown as the incoming/outgoing mail server to users of the Plesk Panel, when clicking on the "Info"-Icon near an e-mail-account in the mail list (see screenshot).
We only have a SSL certificate for one domain and want our customers to use this domain in their mail client settings, so that the client trusts the domain.
Change IP Addresses Assigned To NameServers
Feb 10, 2008I need to change the IPs that are assigned to my name servers. In WHM they are set fine, ns1.xxx.com and ns2.xxx.com both have their own ip's.
However the nameservers were first setup with 123-reg as they hold the domain im using.
when i ping each nameserver they both endup pointing to 1 ip address (the ip of ns2.xxx.com) so i need to change this.
how i would go about getting this changed?
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Can't Change SSL Certs For IP Addresses
Jun 12, 2015I have installed a new SSL cert and tried to assign it to an IP address.
Plesk says "Information: The properties of the IP address .... were changed."
But it seems the SSL cert was not changed.
Running in mysql the following query
select d.name from domains d inner join hosting h on h.dom_id = d.id where h.certificate_id = <id of new cert>;
gives:
Empty set (0.00 sec)
I changed the cert for the IP where all my domains are so it should show the domains using that IP/cert. Running the query using the ID of the old cert lists all the domains on that IP/cert.
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Resellers Unable To Change Mail Settings If Custom Max Outgoing Messages Specified By Admin
Jun 29, 2015As the admin user, change the setting for a particular email account called "The maximum number of outgoing email messages" to a value beyond the default. For example if the default is 35, set it to 75. This is common -- often we have customers who send larger quantities of messages than the average user.
Login as a reseller with access to manage the email account and attempt to change any *other* value. For example, you could completely ignore the outgoing mail messages value and change just the Auto-Reply value
Plesk refuses to allow the change and kicks me back to the first tab with the following error:
The value must be in the range 0..35. Only the Plesk administrator can adjust this setting.Click to expand...
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Change Plan Via WHMCS Causes Dedicated IP To Change To Shared
Feb 21, 2015I have a client on a dedicated IP, today we needed to downgrade the web hosting plan. As the web hosting plan puts users on a default shared IP, this plan change also changed the dedicated IP to the shared one causing some propagation issues for a small period of time.
I have contacted WHMCS about this asking if they had a way of changing the clients plan but keeping the IP address intact as this could lead to some very undesirable outcomes. They explained that it is not their fault and to contact Parallels.
I know I can change the plan directly in Plesk however by initiating the plan change via WHMCS, everything is automated.
Change Host, Change Domain And Getting Search Engines Up To Speed
Feb 5, 2008Has anyone helped clients transition from one domain to another? Maybe dissolving a partnership or renaming their company... so a new domain name has been registered and a new website created.
2 Issues:
#1 Using .htaccess 301 redirect
We used the following command line in their old website's htaccess file
Redirect 301 / [url]
The goal was to get people try to visit any page of their old website (i.e. OldWebsite.com/contact.html) redirected to their new website (i.e. NewWebsite.com/contact.html). Isn't that supposed to change the address bar's URL, too? For some reason, I visit their old site and I seem to be redirected to their new website but the address bar still has their old domain name? Something is going on???
#2 Having their new company name for 2 years now. People can enter her new company name in Google, MSN or Yahoo. Her new company name appears in the search results but has the old domain name associated with it. We are trying to get rid of any reference to that old domain name? What's the easiest way to do this? So what people see in search engines is:
New Company
Short Meta Description
www.OldDomain.com
What steps did I miss in this transition?
What steps do I have to take on their old website/old web server to control it's appearance on search engines and make sure people get to the new website?

Outgoing SMTP Filtering
Dec 24, 2007More out of curiosity than anything, I've been wondering if there are options for filtering outgoing SMTP. Not necessarily every single message, but a firewall-level tool to watch for a sudden burst in SMTP from one host, run some of the messages through SpamAssassin or the like, and trigger an alert if they rank highly for spam.
It seems like it's technologically possible, but I've never heard of anyone doing it, nor seen an actual implementation of it. Has anyone heard of this type of thing?

Outgoing Email Problems, Particularly With Yahoo!
Dec 8, 2006We've recently had a lot of complaints from clients who say Yahoo! mail recipients are not receiving the emails they send. We first noticed this sometime November 2006 but it could have started earlier.
One solution would be to find another hosting provider. The problem is I suspect that it's happening to a lot of hosts and it's Yahoo! in particular that seems to have been a lot more stringent than they were in the past.
I remember some time back (2004 or 2005), AOL blocked an EHOSTPROS.COM server (SVR28) for over 6 months. We also had SVR75 with them and it wasn't blocked (I believe they were in the same DC). And AOL was notorious for blocking a lot of servers. I don't know how it is with them now because from the Philippines, there is very little email exchange with AOL.COM or AIM.COM accounts.
And there is a lot of emails going to YAHOO.COM accounts! And that's where the problem lies.
I first noticed it on my ResellerZoom reseller account (GRAY). Mails from GRAY accounts were completely blocked off by Yahoo! It didn't even go to the Bulk Folder. So Yahoo! was blocking the GRAY server's mail IP and not particular domains (I don't think blocking a domain makes any sense, you usually block IP's).
I opened a ticket with RZ and got great support. But of course, it was about 3 days before Yahoo! started accepting mails from GRAY. RZ did the best they can but could only have done so much.
And then the same thing happened with my HostGator reseller account (INFINITI). Similar issue as well.
From that time until today, it seems to come back on and off. Sometimes emails never reach Yahoo!, sometimes it lands in the Bulk Folder (that's a much lesser evil).
I have 3 reseller accounts at RZ (CAMERON B1, GRAY A1, R2 Failover-1) and 2 reseller accounts at HG (INFINITI and SONOMA). The same issue has come back again the past couple of days on INFINITI (HostGator) and GRAY (ResellerZoom). I'd open a ticket but it's on and off.
Dec 5 / Dec 6, several clients on INFINITI complained that emails to Yahoo! recipients were not being delivered. By the time we tested it, it was ok already. And then just a few hours ago, we got a call from a client on GRAY. We tested and emails were landing on the Bulk Folder. But after a couple of more tests, it went to the Inbox.
We advise clients to tell Yahoo! recipients to always check their Bulk Folders. We also ask the recipients to tag emails with MARK AS NOT SPAM hoping that would help.
You could say that I should be going to HG and RZ support for these. It's just that I don't think it's limited to them and I want to get feedback from others. I will also invite HG and RZ to give their comments on this post.
In the reseller hosting area, I'll actually be asking around also for reseller hosting that's more reliable with email. But I've been doing reseller hosting since May 2003 and have used all of the following:
EHOSTPROS.COM, HOSTDIME.COM, MIDPHASE.COM, SITE5.COM, BLIKSEMHOSTING.COM, HOSTGATOR.COM, RESELLERZOOM.COM
There were more in between but that was a quick in and out. The above list in the sequence I signed up and only includes those that I stayed with long enough (at least 6 months) to evaluate and decide if they're worth it.
I won't expound but avoid MIDPHASE, SITE5, and BLIKSEM. There's enough here on WHT for you to search upon.
My point is that, by far, I've had the best experience with HG and RZ and it does get tiring moving from one host to the other. And it's not that we haven't contributed to the problem. A lot of our clients' contact us forms have recently been hijacked by spammers and have caused abuse on the servers. We're working on fixing each and everyone of these scripts (> 80) and should solve it within a few days. We do our part but there are hundreds of accounts and millions of ways spammers try to hijack server resources for their cause. Note, however, that those scripts have been there for quite awhile and only recently have they been used to spam.
Although there are a lot of other hosts with good reps here on WHT, the only other host I am considering (for the moment) is Aussie Bob's DOTABLE.COM.
But then, right now, with these email woes, we're still evaluating our business. The bulk of our clients are dependent on email. Too much incoming spam is already an issue but mails not reaching intended recipients kinds of ruins the business.
Damned these spammers!
Is there actually a viable solution for this issue? Or is it something that we just have to start living with?
Limit Outgoing Messages (QMail)
Nov 9, 2009We've got a dedicated server at our company that hosts several sites and email accounts. Today I noticed that in the mail queue (from Plesk) we have like 5 or 6 messages from the same customer with around 400 destination addresses for EACH one. This would be like 2000-3000 emails to be sent. It isn't spam as it's some kind of newsletter.
I don't really know how the QMail server handles this, but it's been 5 hours since some of those messages entered the queue, and they are still there, so it seems that is having some difficulty.
I don't pretend to limit the amount of emails an user can send per minute or per hour, but I would like to know if there is any way of managing the queue like, lets say, send 50 message per minute. As far as I know, the mail queue right now (by default) starts sending the messages as they come, which means it could send 1000 in a few seconds if it can handle it.
I don't even know if this would be better or worse, meaning that maybe messages could get queued when the server could handle them, so some customers would see that emails are not working instantly as they do now. It also would be good if this tool (if exists) could report the current status of the queue, saturation, etc...
We're a bit worried because a couple of days ago we had some kind of attack and our server started sending hundreds of emails with fake sender and the CPU went overloaded and the mail queue was too big.
Incoming / Outgoing Packets Blocked
Jun 22, 2009I am facing very unique issue at two of my servers hosted at hivelocity from last 3 or 4 months.
In every couple of days all incoming and outgoing activity get stopped except on port 3386 (RDP) i.e. no one can get website hosted on the server or neither I can access any website from the server but all other services continue to work. A reboot to the server will solve the issue but that is only a temp solution.
I have checked event logs one by one but no issue or error found on it. I have even run the server without firewall but still it stops working.
Scanned the server from 3 different antiviruses one by one but they didn't found any virus.
Datacenter tech staff monitored the server and found no DoS or other such kind of attack on the server or IP.
I am totally clueless on this issue on how to solve it.... anybody here who can help me?
OS: Windows 2003
Firewall: Previous hardware based, then software based and now windows firewall (same issue with all)
Third party softwares: No
Scripts: ASP, ASP.NET, PHP
Database: SQL and MySQL
No other software installed on the server
