• 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 Warden Anti-Spam replace Plesk Email Security Pro?

FutureX

Basic Pleskian
Server operating system version
Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian Version 18.0.57 Update #4
Clients are asking for more advanced spam control. Keyword filtering, etc. Would Warden replace Plesk Email Security Pro?
Thanks!
 
@FutureX Yes Warden does have a rules area where admins can add custom rules to match keywords, subject lines, any mail headers. There are pre-built templates for most rules.

Can individual users/subscriptions set those custom rules? I have resellers with clients, those clients want to be able to set custom rules for their whole domain or individual email accounts.

And does this replace Plesk Email Security Pro?

Thanks!

Custom rules can only be added by the administrator.
And does this replace Plesk Email Security Pro?
Yes it does. You can't run both at the same time.
 
I migrated this particular client from cPanel where they had the ability to do keyword filtering per email account. Having to have an administrator set up a new rule every time would be a huge waste of time for both parties.

We also use imunify360 server security so the email malware/virus protection is taken care of there. Would this conflict with that?

No it shouldn't conflict. Also we have two week free trials so you can test things out before hand and see if it works for you.
 
Thanks for the help, I'll probably test it out. However not being able to set rules per email account or at least per domain is a huge deal breaker.

Honestly when Warden is properly setup you really shouldn't need to add any custom rules. You already have a tonne of network tests like Razor2, Pyzor, DCC with daily rule updates from the KAM ruleset so spam already scores well above the default spam level.

Quick question re: RBL zen.spamhaus.org and public DNS resolvers.

We use the DigitalOcean DNS extension on Plesk. So DNS records are managed locally on the server then sync'd with Digital Ocean's DNS servers.

Is DigitalOcean considered a public DNS resolver?
