• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Disable minimum password length

I am trying to convert to a Plesk based email server. When trying to create email accounts I am getting the message "Error: Unable to set password: The password is incorrect, use at least 5 characters." How do I disable the 5 character minimum requirement for passwords? Over half of the accounts I need to create have passwords shorter than 5 characters. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
 
To anyone else running into this problem, before this Plesk bug has been fixed: Passwords for email users are stored in the "accounts" table of the "psa" mysql database. Just change the password in there and run /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mail_auth_dump to update /var/lib/plesk/mail/auth/passwd.db.
