  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • 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.

Mailman blocks mail queue

When I send an e-mail message for distribution via a Plesk Mailman list, the entire queue is blocked and most of the messages are not delivered to the mailing list subscribers.

Not only that, but all other outgoing mail is blocked and/or never arrives.

The only solution I've found is to use Plesk's interface (mail queue) to delete all outgoing mail in the queue. But this means losing messages.

I've been running this distribution-only e-mail newsletter since 1995, and it now has around 15000 subscribers.

The list is used to send out a weekly e-mail (text only) message, once a week.

I suspect part of the problem may be how Mailman sends mail -- there is apparently no way to throttle outgoing mail, so many of the destinations mailers at Yahoo, Hotmail and GMail see batches of hundreds of messages coming from the same source and IP and start blocking the mail?

How can I fix this?

Thanks for your help and support.
