• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

migration: mailman sends 'welcome-mails'

Basic Pleskian
Hi there,
I'm just about to migrate between two Plesk 8.2 Servers and just noticed that when I migrate a customer who uses mailman-lists, then all the recipients get the "you have been subscribed"-message again.

That's a problem because an a big list that will result in many support-calls.

Can I prevent that?
I tried:
- shutting down qmail for the time
- putting the domain (obviously my own) into the blacklist

(for the time of the migration)

But nothing works, obviously because all the rules won't apply to mails goint out FROM the server.

Any ideas? Isn't there some deamon I could stop just for the time of the migration to prevent the mails to be sent out and then dump the queue before restarting?

I suppore stopping mailman won't work because then the list members will not be imported properly.

Thanks for your suggestions,
southy

P.S.: Why is it that users that are added to a list via the plesk interface won't show up in the mailman interface and vice versa?
 
I guess this has been happening in Plesk for awhile.. A solution I've heard is to stop qmail and manually delete the messages from the queue.
