• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.

Resolved Immediately logged out after creating email accounts

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.57 Update #5
I'm using Plesk Obsidian 18.0.57 on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS and trying to create email accounts for one of my domains I manage through Plesk.

Mail service is configured for the domain, and everything looks okay, but every time I create a new email address I'm immediately logged out of Plesk.

When I log back in I see the mail page for 1-2 seconds then get logged out again. If I'm able to click onto another area of the sidebar, I'm able to say logged in, but if I go back to the mail page I get logged out again.

Removing the new email address prevents the issue from recurring. I've tried various email addresses and the issue recurs reliably.

Has this happened to anyone else before? Or does anyone have a suggestion for resolving the issue?
 
Normally the "immediate logout" occurs after login, not after creating a mailbox, and it is caused by an IP address change on the client side. It can be fixed by a setting in "Tools & Settings" > "Security" > "Session Idle Time": Check "Allow IP address changes during a single session". I've not yet heard anywhere that this can be related to the creation of a mailbox, so maybe the advice helps, maybe not. It's at least a strange symptom in this case.
