  • 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.

TITLE

Outgoing email messages still DKIM signed when option is disabled for domain

PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE

Centos 7.9
Plesk: 18.0.54.1

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

When the option to sign outgoing email messages with DKIM is disabled for a domain emails are still signed.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1) On Tools & Settings > mail server settings > have the Allow signing outgoing mail settings enabled.
2) Add domain to Plesk, after creation go to Mail Settings of domain and disable the "Use DKIM spam protection system to sign outgoing email messages" option.
3) Create an email address, login to the email account via webmail (of use a mail client) and send an email.
4) Notice how the send email is actually DKIM signed.

ACTUAL RESULT

Send email is DKIM signed

EXPECTED RESULT

Email should not be signed with DKIM if option is disabled for the domain

YOUR EXPECTATIONS FROM PLESK SERVICE TEAM

Confirm bug
 
Developers were not able to reproduce it yet. Still testing. Could any other specific, custom configurations play a role?
 
Test engineers have completed tests, but were unable to reproduce the issue. They have checked the outgoing mail headers to determine whether a DKIM signature is present or not, but had not DKIM signature. They recommend to create a support ticket so that the case can be checked on the affected server by support staff.
 
Well this is embarrassing. After re-testing the issue it seems like the issue is actually (and strangely) on the receiving side (on which Plesk isn't used). I should have noticed that when testing. Sorry about that. Issue can be ignored and closed.
