  • 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.

Resolved Adding lines to postfix configuration db's

Olray

Basic Pleskian
I badly need to add a few lines to the Postfix transport.db which is located inside
/var/spool/postfix/plesk
However, this file seems to be auto-generated by Plesk to provide Mailman services. For every mailing list an entry in transport.db is created like "mailinglist-address.yourdomain.com mailman:"

I would like to forward a single email-addy to the Microsoft 365 Exchange server. The necessary entry looks somewhat similar:
[email protected] smtp:exchange.office.microsoft.com

In case it's not possible to add custom entries to transport, the customer needs to move about 15 "standard" mail accounts to Microsoft's servers (15*€ 4.20=€63 service fee a month)

Solution attempts:
1)

I have created the necessary transport.db by issuing the following command:
/etc/init.d/postfix stop && postmap transport && md5sum transport.db > transport.db.md5 && /etc/init.d/postfix start
I'm currently monitoring changes of the file with the command
cd /var/spool/postfix/plesk && md5sum -c transport.db.md5
2)
Checked the Plesk database for any way to add extra lines to the generated transport files.

I think that "Hosted Exchange" is a very important and growing back office neccesity and any solution to that problem is beneficial to all users, resellers, and ISP's.
