Question Plesk setup as email smarthost

[bit101]

Server operating system version

ubuntu 22.04

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.55

Hi together,

is it possible to setup Plesk as email smarthost?

What we want is the follow:
For incoming Emails: Email -> (incoming email) -> Plesk as smarthost -> (forwarding via port 25 starttls/ssl) -> Exchange Email Server or another
For outgoing Emails: Exchange Email Server -> (Sending Email) -> Plesk Smarthost -> Recipient Email Server

So if possible the Plesk Smarthost shall filter the Emal for spam and virus.

Anyone know if it is possible and if yes how.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
you can check this post Resolved - How can I set SMTP [Smart Host]
Plesk has several antispam/antivirus solutions - Antispam Tools
but main purpose of these feature to serve local mail service

Hi,

not thats not the same and not what i mean. On this thread you worte is explain how to set an external smarthost for outgoing emails.

What i described is how to setup Plesk as a Smarthost himself. With other words Plesk is the Smarthost.
Is this possible?

Perhaps, but I recon it's not possible in any practical way. Plesk is not meant to used a stand alone relay/smarthost server.
