Question
How is Let's Encrypt certificate renewed?
Answer
Let’s Encrypt SSL certificates are valid for 90 days.
By default Plesk Let's Encrypt extension performs a daily check for certificates which are about to expire and renews them not earlier than 30 days before their expiration.
This can be disabled for all domains according to the article: Is it possible to disable Let`s Encrypt certificate renewal?

I receive frightening emails from letsencrypt : "Your certificate (or certificates) for the names listed below will expire in 10 days"
I don't have a clue whether it's normal (it will be automatically renewed by plesk before that) or not (I have to renew it manually in Plesk).
When I log into plesk, in domain > plesk, "Let's encrypt certficate for domain.com", there is a even more confusion section :
"This certificate will be renewed." with a big "renew" button. It brakes all UX standards .. should I click it to renew it, or let it renew ? If so, what is the renewal date , and why do I receive theses alerts ?
thank you for clarification

Hello,
It doesn't look like a normal behavior, probably there is an issue with cron or with keep-secured task.
