Question Plesk email alert login

[MicheleB]

Hello... is possible to activate an email alert when someone login on Plesk (for example when a customer enter to manage its hosting or a user enter on Plesk to manage its mail account)?
Thanks.

It seems there was such a feature request on Plesk UserVoice. But I could not find it right away.

I've found this your reply on UserVoice that suggest to use "Event Manager" to do it:

Users Login Notification For Plesk Panel

This should be considered a priority for the Plesk Team. It will customers the ability to receive an email notification every time their Plesk account is logged into and help them to react faster if user password is compromised.

Which command shall I use to send an email to the administrator or custom email?

Which command shall I use to send an email to the administrator or custom email?

Something like general Linux method:

# echo "Test text" | mail -s "Test title" [email protected]

# echo "Test text" | mail -s "Test title" [email protected]

Thanks Igor, it works except the body of the message.
If I use this format the body is empty, "Plesk event" text is not included:
echo "Plesk event" | mail -s "Alert: Plesk user logged in" tech@mypleskdomain

In addition I've two questions:

1. Is possible to change the "from email"?
   Now I receive the email from psa user ("psaadm@mypleskdomain") but it doesn't exist.
   Is not a priority because I can activate an alias for psaadm@ but I'd like to use another email.
2. How can I insert a message in the email including the username that logged in to Plesk?
   For example "The user 'mycustomer1' logged in to Plesk".

Thanks.

1. Use -r option:

# echo "Message Body" | mail -s "Message Subject" -r "[email protected]" [email protected]

2. Try to use Plesk variables - Event Parameters Passed by Event Handlers
