Question disable mail service

[Aniello Martuscelli]

Hello

I have test.com hosted on plesk and [email protected] on external mail server
if I create php contact form that send mail from site test.com on [email protected], plesk try to deliver it locally, but fail because mailbox not exists (mx are on other server), To solve this problem I must disable mail service on test.com doing

/usr/local/psa/bin/mail --off test.com

is possible to disable mail service globally without do mail --off command for each domain or when I add new domain to plesk?

thanks

Hi Aniello Martuscelli,

for such goals, you are able to use the "Event Handler". Plesk created a KB - article for your request:

=> How to turn Mail Service off for new subscriptions by default

( it's written for "Plesk 10.4 for Linux", but you can use it to adapt it for Plesk Onyx as well! )​

If you want to do this easily on a server-wide basis, the quick and easy approach is to login to Plesk > Tools & Settings > Mail Server Settings > UNCHECK "Enable mail management functions in Plesk" - Note that this is for all domains on the server.
