• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey.

  • 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:
REQUEST: A check box to turn on ssl=required in Dovecot
PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE:
Plesk 17.5 Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
These are the current settings of dovecot

find /etc/dovecot -type f -name \*.conf -exec egrep -H '^(disable_plaintext_auth|ssl) *=' {} \;
Code:
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-plesk-security.conf:disable_plaintext_auth = no
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/11-plesk-security-ssl.conf:ssl= yes

I would like to set it on "ssl= required" using the Plesk interface.
This can now only be done by editing the configuration files of Dovecot.
Such alterations can sometimes be undone by Plesk in my experience.

By using "required" you will stop using plain connections in mail. This would be a good start for a new server and start phasing out those old mail clients.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
This can now only be done by editing the configuration files of Dovecot.
Such alterations can sometimes be undone by Plesk in my experience.​
ACTUAL RESULT:
Not possible​
EXPECTED RESULT:
possible in the webif​
