• 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.
  • (Plesk for Windows):
    MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51, 5.1, and 5.3 are no longer shipped with Plesk because they have reached end of life. MariaDB Connector/ODBC 64-bit 3.2.4 is now used instead.
  • 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 Setup Outlook

jonny_alex

Basic Pleskian
Hey Pleskians

My customers always have to set up their Outlook manually and enter all details like server SSL encription and ports.
First of all, is it possible to make this happen automatically so the only enter their mail and password and all else will install automatically?

Second of all, if i set their account up, even if i use Let's encrypts on every mail and domain the error:
The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that cannot be verified. The target principal name is incorrect.

Shows up in every Outlook restart..

Does anyone have a step by step guide to solve it?

I already tried the guide How to secure a Plesk mail server with different SSL certificates (SNI support)

My Result:


echo 'Q' | openssl s_client -connect localhost:465 -servername nail-barbara.ch -showcerts 2>&1 | grep -Eo 'CN=[^/]+' | uniq
CN=nail-barbara.ch
CN=Let's Encrypt Authority X3
CN=DST Root CA X3
CN=nail-barbara.ch
CN=Let's Encrypt Authority X3

But still the error appears...?
 
I had a similar issue, with an expired cert I got re-issued under the same name handle. It turned out that it still delivered the expired cert, although the newer one was selected. I deleted these certs and started over and then it worked.
 
Concerning the SSL issue (maybe this will not help): Is the domain entered in Outlook as inbound and outbound mail server the domain for which you set the mail server certificate?

I mean, if you have the certificate for example.com there should not be mail.example.com or something like this in Outlook.
