Does Plesk now that they have Let's Encrypt handle TLS for mail/ftp as well with users domains?
Talking about cPanel:
In the past, when you secured your FTP, Mail server, customers had to use the server hostname with Outlook/Phone, other as "server.example.com"
This was also true for the control panel access. When customers typed example.com/cpanel they were redirected to the hostname as that was the only one secured with SSL.
This was annoying and awful for 2 reasons and a problem for some years. Resellers had the hostname URL exposed for their customer's control panel and every time you migrated customers to another server; they had to manually change the outlook config on every device to the correct server.
When cPanel added Let's Encrypt this was completely solved.
Now customers can use example.com/cpanel to log in to their accounts, and they can also use example.com as their outgoing/incoming mail server. No more changes required if you keep migrating them between servers as they use their own domain name (just DNS update) and everyone is happy now when they access the control panel using their domain name instead of a generic server name. This works of course because all domains have SSL installed with Lets Encrypt.
So let me ask this. How does Plesk Onyx handle this today?
Can each customer use example.com:8443?
This is already annoying (customers having to remember a port), but I expect them not to be redirected to the hostname if they already have an SSL installed.
And email? Can they use their domain or at least mail.example.com? Or they are forced to use the server hostname? Same is true for FTP.
As you can see these are two important questions I have about Plesk Onyx as you can't seriously offer services today without secure connections to all services.
