  • 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.

Delete Mail after Forwarding

Basic Pleskian
Hi to all,

is it possible to configure Plesk (running Postfix) with the ability to delete Mails that where forwarded?
So if anyone could give me an hint

thxin advance
Marek
 
By default mail should be only forwarded and not stored in mailbox. You can check it in .qmail file. For example:

# cat ./qmail/mailnames/plesk10.domain.com/mail1/.qmail
| true
| /usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir

deliverquota indicate that mail will be stored in mailbox. For forwarding you will see something like &<mailname>@<domain> without deliverquota.
 
Hi IgorG,

thx for this hint - so is it possible to reconfigure this account to only forward emails - and where i have to do
this?

greets
Marek
 
You should add address for forwarding and disable "Mailbox" checkbox for email in Control Panel. In that case forwarding will be enabled without storing email in mailbox.

For example:

Usual mailbox:
# cat ./qmail/mailnames/plesk10.domain.com/mail1/.qmail
| true
| /usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir

Mailbox with forwarding:
# cat ./qmail/mailnames/plesk10.domain.com/mail1/.qmail
| true
| /usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir
&[email protected]

Mailbox with forwarding and disabled "Mailbox" checkbox:
# cat ./qmail/mailnames/plesk10.domain.com/mail1/.qmail
| true
&[email protected]
