Mail logs for Plesk are located in /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog and associated archives

Often Media Temple customers find themselves unable to send mail using the default http://kb.parallels.com/en/3477

   STOP:

   This provides a way to get your SMTP server to listen on port 25 and an additional port at the same time. This workaround has been tested with Plesk versions 7.5.2 and 7.5.3. Customers should proceed with caution as this workaround is UNSUPPORTED by Media Temple and Plesk. There is a high probability that this will cease to work or even break your server if you attempt to update Plesk after applying the workaround. You will need AccountCenter.

   You can find additional documentation at http://www.gobdg.com/blog/2009/06/how-to-add-an-additional-outgoing-mail-smtp-port-mediatemple-on-plesk/

   1. Make a copy of /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_psa. For this walkthrough the new filename created is smtp_nonstandard. A command like this should work: �  

      cp /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_psa /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_nonstandard

   2. Add these lines to the copy you just made:

      vi /etc/xinetd.d/smtp_nonstandard type = UNLISTED port = 2525

   3. and change the service name to match the name of the file. A sample smtp_nonstandard looks like this:

      service = smtp_nonstandard type = UNLISTED socket_type = stream protocol = tcp port = 2525 wait = no disable = no user = root instances = UNLIMITED server = /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env server_args = -Rt0 /var/qmail/bin/relaylock /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd /var/qmail/bin/smtp_auth /var/qmail/bin/true /var/qmail/bin/cmd5checkpw /var/qmail/bin/true

   4. Restart xinetd:

      /etc/init.d/xinetd restart

   5. You should now be able to send mail through your server on port 2525. You may pick a different port if you use this method. We suggest choosing a high port number to avoid using commonly used ports on the internet.
