• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

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​
