• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be 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.

find spam relaying user?

Basic Pleskian
I facing a serious problem with my qmail and plesk 11.0.9.

I found the way spammer did with my server by listening everything on port 25.

Maybe he know the RCPT hosts of mine, and they send emails with random username but with domain hosted on my Plesk. ([email protected], [email protected], ... [email protected]).

qmail only check domain in RCPT if spammer input:

"mail from [email protected]" - (with out ":") - no email address on my server.
then server reply: 550 sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.7.17)

But qmail check username and domain if spammer input:

""mail from: [email protected]" - (with ":") - no email address on my server.
then server reply: 250 OK


This is really weird! I tried with all my plesk server, this bug still effected.

Do you have any idea?

Thank You!
