  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • 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.

SMTP timeouts in qmail

Hi,

I'm having strange behavior on machine with Plesk 9.5.3 running qmail.
Everyday after 6 am SMTP service is starting to give timeouts for about 10-15 minutes.
I'm monitoring this with nagios passive checks.
I've setup simple bash scripts to dump output of netstat, ps and top commands to check what is going on when smtp errors shows up. Number of smtp connections going high from about 15 to 170, but for me it looks like some kind of troubles inside, like qmail not handling all connections and the number of them is increasing.

My guess is, it is something running on cron basis and giving troubles to smtp service.

Any hints on this will be great.
Thank you.
