• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

how reject or bounce mail on individual account

How do I reject (preferred) or bounce (acceptable) email sent to a specific account?

I'm moving my domain to a Plesk environment from an old shared host, and am trying to duplicate behaviors.

I want misspelled addresses (such as [email protected]) to be redirected to a single account we can check ([email protected]), which is easy to do. But I then want to bounce or reject specific addresses (such as [email protected] or [email protected]).

This should be obvious and easy to do, but I can't see the options in Plesk....
 
If you're not too bothered about the bounce you can just setup those as new mail names in Plesk, but not assign a mailbox/redirect/etc. to it. If you want a bounce message you can do the above but add an autoresponse. All mail to addresses configured in Plesk without a redirect/mailbox will be dropped silently.
 
Thanks, Cranky.

Of course reject would be better. Spammers have gotten ahold of a couple of these accounts, and I'd rather not add the round-trip traffic, or have them use the accounts to bounce spam to spoofed senders.

If anyone from SWsoft is listening, please add this as a feature request ;)
