Hey Guys and Girls,

We found many posts and this one is exactly the symptoms:
Webmail fails to send a message: execv(/usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix) : Failed to execute original sendmail utility directly: Permission denied [13]

It looks like the permissions are correct (other post) only thing we didnt do is replace the sendmail.postfix could this file be corrupt in some way?

Thank you in advance for helping us.

Most probably this issue is caused by SELinux. Try to disable it and check how it goes on.
 
Thank you!

Did solve this problem.

After that we had an other bug in plesk missing some libraries .so -> .so3

With some symlinks we fixed it al works fine now.
