Question Plesk keeps re-enabling IPV6

finbarr69

Basic Pleskian
Server operating system version
Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS
Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian 18.0.77 Update #2 Web Host Edition
My hosting provider does not provide a reverse DNS IP mapping for IPV6, and as google requires this to accept email from my server, I have to disable IPV6 on the server. I disabled it following the instructions. It works for a few weeks, then something updates the configuration file /etc/postfix/main.cf and turns it back on. I now have a cron that runs every 5 minutes to turn it back off again if it sees it change.
I just wondered if anyone else has seen this annoying behaviour?
Thanks
 
Are you trying to disable IPv6 system wide or just for outgoing emails? If just for outgoing emails, why not just the "Outgoing mail mode" setting under Tools & Settings > Mail Server Settings to be "Send from the specified IP addresses" and leaving IPv6 to None while choosing the IPv4 address you want to send from?
