  • 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.

Hello all.

Dear Plesk Guru's, please help. It's not usual and important question. Not just an folder moving.
It's working server. I need to move near 500Gb of mail from /var/mail/qmail to another location. Would you please tell how to do this?
Reason: disk is running out of space :(

I've connected new disk already, made a partition and have /dev/sdf1 to place all mail there. But there are owner, group and other rights. I'm sure can't just copy folder to folder. Here must be "dd" or other command. I will stop dovecot and postfix service to copy. But don't know how to copy to not break mail service after copying (messages databases, reading status, and etc.)

Will appreciate for any help.
