  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Emails being rejected due to wrong? HELO

philippL

New Pleskian
Plesk 12.5 Ubuntu 14.04
Postfix

HELO domain.tld works most of the time. (also that's our reverse DNS entry)
But we got a specific receiving server that only accepts emails from us if we send HELO mail.domain.tld (so our MX record). even though that resolves to the same IP (I only managed to configure that manually in the postifx/master.cf)
Is that actually correct behavior? (RFC: http://www.freesoft.org/CIE/RFC/1123/90.htm) If so I'd really need a Plesk setting for this - otherwise my manual change gets overwritten every time I change something witht the mail settings.

(Or do you think HELO with IP woud work also?)
