• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • Our UX team believes in the in the power of direct feedback and would like to invite you to participate in interviews, tests, and surveys.
    To stay in the loop and never miss an opportunity to share your thoughts, please subscribe to our UX research program. If you were previously part of the Plesk UX research program, please re-subscribe to continue receiving our invitations.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.

Question SSL error when accessing mail.example.com

Hello, I have a problem with the ssl certificate of my server's domains.

When accessing through a browser to https://mail.example.com this gives me as not secure since it shows the root ssl certificate of the server (server.com)

I need that when entering https://mail.example.com the certificate is that of the domain, since all the pentesting tools give me a security alert for this issue.

The certificate assigned in the domain is a lets encrypt wildcard and is configured for both webmail and mail.
 
Hello,
Instead using the subdomain mail you can use webmail and configure this option for your domain.
Using all others subdomain except webmail is not possible with let's encrypt with Plesk, this is a well-known big problem, we have for example lists.example.ext and mailman.
Best Regards
AR

correction: "using all others subdomains..." it is, of course, possible to create a subdomain and create a certificate on it, I mean a subdomain name without creating explicitly a subdomain like lists.
 
The mail prefix of a domain isn't secured by any SSL certificate. Instead you can either use the domain itself (example.com) or the full host name of your server for secured email connections (IMAP/POP/SMTP).
