  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Plesk Mail service not working

PaddingtonC

Basic Pleskian
I am unable to receive emails on an Ubuntu 11.04 server running postfix with the Plesk control panel. I can't see the mails even on webmail. I am able to send emails and am not getting any error messages on the email client when I try to receive. When users first complained of this I saw that the disk was full so I deleted the backups but still there is an the incoming mail service is not working. Here is the output of the logs:

*tail -f /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog

I resolved this by mv /var/lib/postfix/smtpd_scache.db rm /var/lib/postfix/smtpd_scache.db.backup. It seem the smtpd_scache.db was the cause of the problem.

We tried this but had to first do Igor's steps here:
http://forum.parallels.com/showthre...ool-postfix-plesk-poplock-db-Invalid-argument

# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mailmng --stop-service
# mv /var/spool/postfix/plesk/poplock.db /var/spool/postfix/plesk/poplock.db_
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk --with-spam
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mailmng --start-service

AND your steps on our CP9 to fix the problem.
