similar to: Add virtual users to the Dovecot configuration

Good Day All! I am attempting to configure deliver as our LDA. I am also configuring the server to use Postfix instead of Sendmail. I have followed the all the documentation and examples I could find. Below are my Dovecot and Postfix configs. Can someone please smack me upside the head and tell me why I am getting "user unknown" errors? If i don't use deliver as the LDA, all

Hi, I've been trying to follow the documentation that I am finding, but am running into trouble getting things set up correctly for postfix + virtual domains (using ldap) with dovecot LDA. I can get it to work without LDA, but I'm running into permissions problems when I try to run with LDA. I am wondering if anyone has any good examples of configuring this. I basically have a

Hope someone can help me with this as I am presently stuck I am setting up a new server with Dovecot 0.99.10, Redhat 9.0, Postfix, Amavisd-new and maildir's in the users home drive. I am using Netscape mail 7.1 as the main client to access the mail store via imap which works fine and various other imap clients can access the maildirs Ok as well. The problem is when Postfix delivers a

Hi, I'm trying to configure a new server with dovecot 2.0 and postfix 2.6.6. My previous servers have all been dovecot 1.x. Trying to port over my previous configurations has been a real headache. Currently, I'm getting the following errors when trying to connect with: openssl s_client -starttls smtp -connect localhost:25 Aug 21 19:08:46 localhost postfix/smtpd[26252]: connect from

Dear sirs, I'm working on Post-login script for migrating 40K Courier-imap users to Dovecot. After reading related topics about post-login script in your documentation, mailing list, I cannot remove the problem described here-below. Is there any special config to add when users are virtual (authentication and user info is fed by LDAP server). I would be grad if anyone could give me advise.

I appreciate the responses to my problem on v0.99.14. Thank you all. We have built a new server running version 1.0-0_15.beta9.el4. The mail delivery agent is sendmail. We seem to have

All, I'm trying to teach dovecot to use the mbox format for /var/mail/%u and maildir for /home/%u/Mail/ but I'm having quite a hard time. This is Dovecot v1.0.beta3 under OpenBSD 3.9 on sparc64. I've been fiddling with default_mail_env and also tried separate namespaces, but all to no avail. Here's some of the things I tried : default_mail_env =

It would seem that dovecot cannot detect my maildir. The system DO NOT use "~/Maildir". It is arbitrary across a few systems, actualy, and am curious if there is a way to "force" in the config file where the maildir explicitly resides, much like Postfix's "home_mailbox" configuration parameter. On a side note, I compiled dovecot 0.99.4 on a NetBSD

Hello, It looks I encoutered a bug or misconfiguration. fts_squat search for subject and body works excellent for English mails. For non-English (in particular, Russian) it works only when query consists of 1 word. Phrases - 2 and more words - always returns nothing. Example: search for "planet" ("???????") returns results, search for "Earth" ("?????") also

i'm setting up for virtual_users w/ maildir. i have in my dovecot.conf: auth default { passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/dovecot/imapd.passwd } userdb static { args = static uid=300 gid=300 home=/var/dovecot/mail mail=maildir:/var/dovecot/mail/%d/%n/Maildir nice=10 } } default_mail_env = maildir:/var/dovecot/mail/%d/%n/Maildir:INDEX=/var/dovecot/indexes/%d/%n in

G'day list, Just a quick question - I need to configure Dovecot to do the following: * check default_mail_env for the users' inbox in MBOX format * If the above fails, serve the user an inbox from a secondary location, in MAILDIR format. I have read up on Namespaces, however I can't seem to get this to work - login just fails when Dovecot cannot find the inbox in default_mail_env

Hi; I continue to be plagued with this error: Oct 25 10:49:18 myserver postfix/pipe[3712]: 0423257901AB: to=<foo at bar.com>, relay=dovecot, delay=109318, delays=109318/0.14/0/0.1, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure It's been a week that I've been working day and night to get this fixed.

I was told to use dovecot because it was easier than cyrus. I just upgraded from fc1 to fc3. I am not sure what fc1 used but I think it was cyrus and it worked perfect out of the box no configurations to do. The new cyrus-imapd is not so simple so I got dovecot. I see examples saying to use mbox=~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u but when I try that I cannot map mail folders that reside

Settings for mail_chroot and default_mail_env are not playing well together. It seems that default_mail_env is verified to exist *before* the chroot but is later used *after* the chroot. A configuration like this: * mail_chroot = /var/mail/example.com/username * default_mail_env = maildir:/Maildir Fails with the message: * stat(/Maildir) failed: No such file or directory As a

Hi Perhaps I've been going too far OT in my previous thread or perhaps I just didn't explain my problem clear enough so forgive me for trying again. I have configured fetchmail to fetch my mail from my ISP's POP3-server. I have set up procmail to filter messages and deliver all non-filtered messages to the folder ".IN-catchall/" in "$HOME/Maildir" After sending
