DirectAdmin 1.680

Thanks.
Can you enlighten this one a bit for me as I'm not native English and I'm not sure what is ment by "mail address" here:
Any forwarder email address can be used as a sender address if the forwarding rule is configured to deliver emails to the main address.

1.) So I have 2 forwarder emails.
One mail going to my ticket system is automatically also forwarded to my normal contact mail address. This keeps working I presume?

2.) Other situation. A customer has [email protected] and has his mail automatically forwarded to [email protected] for example.
Microsoft is often messing with from adresses, but it can also be gmail and this is a forward which is not going to the "main address".

It's not clear to me what happens in these 2 situations or what exactly changes with forwarders, would be nice to have an example for us non-English users.
 
I have a little question about Exim.
Is this still work if the user is owner of the domain, but can set any sender name, "{any_sproof}@user_domain" ?
 
To address lingering questions with additional Exim ACL:
  • User can always send email from address that was used for authentication.
Example: user authenticated as "[email protected]" can send emails from "[email protected]" address.

  • Domain part can be an alias domain that points to the main domain.
Example: if alias domain "alias.example.com" points to "example.com", user authenticated as "[email protected]" can send emails either from "[email protected]" or "[email protected]"

  • Local part can be a forwarder address from the main domain if it forwards to his authenticated email address.
Example: if "[email protected]" is forwarded to "[email protected]", user authenticated as "[email protected]" can send emails either from "[email protected]" or "[email protected]"

  • If catch-all points to his authenticated email address he can send from any local part within the same domain.
Example: if Catch All E-mail forwards mail to "[email protected]", user authenticated as "[email protected]" can send emails from "{anything}@example.com"
 
While this setting can be disabled - which is probably what I will do - it just seems that this "feature" is overstepping the boundaries of SMTP.

In principle I can see where this is beneficial, but it really needs to be part of SMTP and not something that DirectAdmin takes upon itself to implement. I can see this causing a lot of issues for users who have been implementing their own sending policies with a single SMTP Authentication user.

That's just my opinion. But at least this can be disabled.
 
After server update from directadmin including soft i get the following error

Misdirected Request​

The client needs a new connection for this request as the requested host name does not match the Server Name Indication (SNI) in use for this connection.

The error occurs when a location in NGINX (proxy mode) is missing the following newly added directives:

Code: 
                proxy_ssl_server_name on;
                proxy_ssl_name $host;

see:

Bash: 
[root@srv custom]# grep proxy_ssl /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/nginx*
/usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/nginx_server_secure.conf:         proxy_ssl_server_name on;
/usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/nginx_server_secure.conf:         proxy_ssl_name $host;
/usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/nginx_server_secure_sub.conf:             proxy_ssl_server_name on;
/usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/nginx_server_secure_sub.conf:             proxy_ssl_name $host;

[root@srv custom]#

you will need to add these directives either in custom templates (if they are used) or in directadmin on custom httpd page (if only configs for selective domains are customized)

If you don't know how to fix it, contact me for private assistance, you will be charged a fee in this case.
