  • 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.

10.4.4 MU#41 | Postfix Not Sending Emails to Specific users

fearz

Regular Pleskian
Hi,

Recently I started receiving 551 error with User unknown in virtual mailbox table when sending an email to a specific user, I used to send emails fine to him..suddenly, I received the mentioned error.

I followed Igor's advice in : http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=105131

I added the recipient email manually using the last command, and now it send...

Why wasn't that email automatically added? do i have to add recipients manually each time?

What could be the problem?
