Control Panel: Plesk 2.5

Does anyone know of a way that i could limit users to the webmail interface only for sending and receiving email?

I'd like to find an Ensim way to do this as well.

Just an idea and probably a bit of a dirty way to do it

Enabled your firewall to block port 25 and possibly 110 and turn off relaying in the CP

That way no one can get to the pop and smtp ports and are therefore forced to use webmail.

The other way would be to remove mail.domian.com from the DNS

4web-space is on the right track ..... I would have to dig into the config files.

Disable POP before SMTP Auth and then use a list of approved clients that can use the POP server.

Do the same for SMTP -- only allow certain machines to use SMTP -- assuming that you web mail talks to sendmail directly?

The same thing may be accomplished by using the firewall approach above -- this may be preferred as you do not have to chnage the ensim config files.

You could then allow the IPs you want through the firewall to use POP/SMTP.

One thing, do NOT block port 25, unless you use local mail only, just turn off all relaying on the server. Port 25 is also used to deliver mail to the server, so if port 25 was blocked, then no one would be able to send mail to the server.
