• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be 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.

You need to check the data center's reverse DNS (PTR) name resolution record for your host's IP address. The reverse resolution translates the IP address into the host name. If that entry is missing and reverse name resolution cannot be done, many mail servers deny mail transport, because spammers have often been forging domain names and did not set the reverse resolution (of course they did not), so this is considered a major signal for spam.
