• 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.

MTA qmail, different email handling

Hi guys

I wrote a script which sends email from a form --> formmailer.

PHP:
<?php
$mdpass = "c003a894e29e413e42e1ac51527abc76";
if($_POST['sent'] == 2){
	if(md5($_POST['key']) == $mdpass){
		$emailsubject = stripslashes($_POST['emailsubject']);
		$emailmessage = stripslashes($_POST['emailmessage']);
		$emailheader = "From: ".$_POST['emailfromshowname']." < ".$_POST['emailfromaddress']." >\n"; 
		$emailheader .= "Reply-to: ".$_POST['emailfromshowname']." <".$_POST['emailfromaddress'].">\n"; 
		$emailheader .= "Reply-path: ".$_POST['emailfromshowname']." <".$_POST['emailfromaddress'].">\n"; 
		$emailheader .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n"; 
		$emailheader .= "Content-Type: text/plain\n"; 
		$emailheader .= "X-Sender: ".$_POST['emailfromaddress']."\n"; 
		$emailheader .= "X-Mailer: PHP/".phpversion()."\n"; 
		$emailheader .= "X-Priority: 3";
		
		mail($_POST['emailto'], $_POST['emailsubject'], $emailmessage, $emailheader);
		echo "email has been sent!";
	}else{
		echo "email could not be sent!";
	}
}else{
?>
<form action="<? echo $php_self; ?>" method="POST">
to:<br />
<input type="text" name="emailto" size="20" /><br />
<br />

from address:<br />
<input type="text" name="emailfromaddress" size="20" /><br />
<br />

from showname:<br />
<input type="text" name="emailfromshowname" size="20" /><br />
<br />

subject:<br />
<input type="text" name="emailsubject" size="20" /><br />
<br />

message:<br />
<textarea rows="10" name="emailmessage" cols="30"></textarea><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
key:<br />
<input type="password" name="key" size="20" /><br />
<br />
<input type="hidden" name="sent" value="2" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="send" />
</form>
<?
} ?>

Unfortunatly, only email adresses which aren't on the same server, receive the email correclty. E-Mail adresses which are configured in plesk/qmail on the same server as this formmail-script is, I get double-blank lines.

e.g. entered text in form:
Test 1

Test 2

--> received text on a email adress which is located on the same server:
Test 1



Test 2

--> received text on a email adress which is located on a other server:
Test 1

Test 2

Why is the MTA handling the outgoing email different? Or how can I fix the double blanklines?

Thanks in advance for your help!
 
We are investigating a similar issue for a client. A form to email script build by Sitebuilder corrupts the email when sending to a local account. The email contents come through but they are in HTML code. When sent to a remote account they are handled properly.
