Disable email services

[anacleto]

Hi.
Is it possible to completely disable the email service for all users? How with Plesk "Disable email hosting" ?
I only sell hosting, I don't act as a mail provider.

Thank you

You can stop exim/dovecot services, remove from CSF email ports (25,110,465,587,993,995) add to php.ini disable_functions "mail"

Hi,

I disabled the services (exim and dovecot) with
service exim stop
systemctl disable exim
systemctl daemon-reload
I have addedd this line in each PHP version in the php.ini
;Disable Email Service
disable_functions: mail

I reboot the server , but I still see roundcube mails, mail queue, email tracking and email summary icons in my panel.

Als stop service from within the DA panel.
After that, remove the system check of the services.

Edit the file /usr/local/directadmin/users/admin/services.status and set to OFF the statusses or remove the lines not needed anymore.

I'm not 100% sure if this also stops the monitoring from DA if the services are running, but I thought this one did.

Hi,

I have this file /usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/services.status not this /usr/local/directadmin/users/admin/services.status , anyway after reboot everything is ok but not the icons, where can I hide them ? CSS ? Template override ? Without lost any modification after any updates. Thanks

You can use "Skin Manager" from "Admin Tools", that won't override after update.

I have this file /usr/local/directadmin/data/admin/services.status

Yep sorry, that is the correct one, should indeed be /data/ not /users/ for that file.
