Hi there,
I want to use my Plesk server as a mail server.
I am using WordPress websites, which require sending emails. Before, I used MailJet (a service similar to SendGrid) as my SMTP service.
I can send emails fine from the sites that are hosted on My Plesk server.
These are the steps I am following for sending emails from Non-Hosted Sites.
1. Add Domain in Plesk. (Not changing the A record to Plesk)
2. In Mail Options enabling both outgoing and incoming.
3. Create a mail address in Mail Accounts.
4. Using my primary domain as an SMTP host (mail.domain.com) that resolves to the server, SPF records are configured. TLSA records are configured. (I am using the same SMTP host for hosted sites and mails are working fine there).
5. Use the Mail Account username and password for authentication.
When I try to send mail, it gives a timeout and never connects to the server.
I tried adding the IP of the non-hosted site to the Whitelist but got the same result.
