  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    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. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Resolved Instructions for Installing PHPMail

Mr_Foxcroft

New Pleskian
Would somebody please be kind enough to provide me with step-by-step instructions on how to install PHPMail on my website.

The only access I have for my production website is through Plesk Obsidian, but the help documentation is too vague. I'm experienced with using command line tools such as a shell and Composer, but I cannot log into my production server to use that method to install PHPMailer.

The actual production server provided by my hosting service is Windows Server 2016. My development server is Apache.

I do have a Composer directory in the root of my production website with a composer.json file in it.

Would copying the installation from my Apache development server to my Windows production server work?

Sincerely,
Thomas Foxcroft
 
PHPMailer is a freely available PHP script. Installation and usage is the same for any website. It does not depend on the web server infrastructure. You install it in your website (normally simply upload it into your website), it is not a service that needs to be installed in Plesk or your operating system. It's simply a PHP script collection.

Thank you for that explanation. I think I can handle it from here. Hope all is well wherever you are.
