  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • 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.

Question Change "from"-address for cron emails

Is there a way to change the "from"-address for cron emails?
I get messages from "[email protected]", but I want from address to be "[email protected]".
My full FQDN is "subdomain.domain.com" (also the URI where the plesk panel is accessible) which is also my /etc/hostname and /etc/mailname.
Mail server is reachable from "mail.domain.com".

Is there a way to tell cron or postfix to use "[email protected]" as sender address for cron / system emails? Otherwise my personal gmail account rejects all cron mails, because (presumably) DMARC fails...

I know I can achieve this if I pipe the output of my cron scripts to the mail command:
Code:
* * * * * mycroncommand | mail -s "my subject" -r [email protected] [email protected]

But that feels kinda hacky...

Thank you for your help.
