TITLE

VERP keeps getting reset during upgrade

PRODUCT, VERSION, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE

Product version: Plesk Obsidian 18.0.44.3
Product version: Plesk Obsidian 18.0.47.5
OS version: Debian 11.5 x86_64

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

In Server-wide mail settings, the checkbox
Enable email subaddressing This option enables an ability to configure [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_envelope_return_path']VERP-style[/URL] email addresses for mail lists
keeps getting reset to Off on Plesk updates.
This happened during the update from Debian 9 to 10 to 11, and just now again during the update from 18.0.44.3 to 18.0.47.5.

Not having VERP-style addresses enabled when those are heavily used (by the ERP system, to track orders and bounces and stuff) leads to loss of important emails. I hope I don't need to explain why this is BAD.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Update Plesk

ACTUAL RESULT

VERP-Checkbox off

EXPECTED RESULT

VERP-Checkbox keeps the previous setting
