  • 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.

Issue smtp.helo is not correct

itoop

New Pleskian
Hallo,

on plesk 17.8.11 in the Server-Wide Mail Settings I set as Outgoing mail mode "Send from domain IP adresses". At Server Settings I set als Full hostname a FQDN. My Reverse-DNS-entry is correct (testet by dnsstuff.com; Reverse DNS entry is green/pass as well as all tests for mail).
My problem is, that nevertheless the smtp.helo is not set correctly: If I write an email from roundcube to my gmail-adresse, I can see, that "smtp.helo=webmail.andre-hohmann.net" is set and not the FQDN! If I write an email from my iPhone-mail-app, it is set "smtp.helo=[192.168.179.23]", so my internal network IP and not the FQDN!
Additionally one Mailserver of a company doesn't accept my mails (Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 554).

What can I do?
 
What is output of commands

# postconf | grep ^myhostname
# cat /etc/hostname

?
 
$ postconf | grep ^myhostname
myhostname = mail.itoop.de

$ cat /etc/hostname
mail.itoop.de
 
I have the same problem, but I'm using Qmail:

When I send a mail from webmail: "smtp.helo=webmail.domain.com"
When I send from Mailclient: "smtp.helo=domain"

I want to configure it, so it sends: "smtp.helo=mail.domain.com" (as specified in MX-record, Plesk Server Settings and rDNS-Record)

Does anybody have an idea on how to fix this?
