It does the same for mail, BTW

I'm getting in trouble with my clients over this one.
Especially the date of the files in mail. This is one of the core features of Plesk and should be 100% reliable. Mail clients somehow react on this.
I do hope this is given priority.

A restore is not something you do regularly, but if you do you want to be sure all files came back how you expect them. Including the dates and attributes.....

Hey, everyone. I would like to inform you that the issue with the incorrect timestamps during restores is fixed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.65. If you have automatic updates enabled (or already run Plesk version 18.0.65) this update should be installed already.

The “last modified” timestamps on the users’ files restored from backup (including mail) are no longer reset to the current date upon restoration. This also prevents files restored from backup from being unnecessarily included in incremental backups. (PPPM-6333, PPPM-10282)
