similar to: Problem with Courier POP3 Migration to dovecot POP3

Hi, there! Well, I am new to dovecot, so please be patient with me: I have a virtual server and want to setup simple mail delivery. postfix, saslauthd and dovecot basically work fine. The only open issue is, that (I guess) dovecot doesn't remove the mail when it's retrieved via pop3 from the server. It keeps sending me the same emails again and again. (The mail client (Thunderbird) is

Hi, It happens when I try to convert this config (with the dovecot 2.0 beta4 release) : test-mail:/tmp# dovecot -n -c ./dovecot.old.conf # 1.2.11: ./dovecot.old.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.26-2-686-bigmem i686 Debian 5.0.4 log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot_info.log protocols: imap listen: 127.0.0.1:30143 disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login

Greetings - We are running Dovecot 1.1.11 on our servers and have been gradually migrating people off our old (UW-based) systems onto the new (Dovecot-based) ones. As a result the new systems are seeing more connections from more people. We have started seeing problems reported by users of our webmail service that they are getting an error indicating the webmail software (Prayer) has failed to

Hi, I'm working for tuning a busy cluster of dovecot servers. Heach server as 4 core, 8GB of RAM and provide POP3 and IMAP access to mailbox. OS is Debian 6.0 and dovecot version is 1.2.15. I am unsure how to set "login_max_processes_count" and "login_max_connections" for reach the best situation when login_process_per_connection is set to no. I don't know what

I'm currently runing UW-IMAP (compiled vanilla) with procmail and mbox and am making my usual careful crawl (at turtle speed) through figuring out DC config. Some questions: a) I have something like 3-4 root imapd sessions so I presume that the default *login_processes_count* = 3 will be OK. I'm less clear about login_max_processes_count and login_max_connections = 256. A common

Hi Johanners Berg, I put the antispam plugin to work (some days ago) and now my imap daemon dies with segfault. I don't have nothing (wrong) in logs, just a lot of segfaults...

Hi, I am using dovecot: 1.0.rc15 I was upgrading Debian and installed new versions of lots of things. My mail came fine and I though there was not problem until a user called and said it was not working through webmail. I tried, it it worked fine and I realized the problem was with dovecot. I have created new users, tried different UIDs. Removed any protections but when I telnet to the

Hi using dovecot 1.0.10 with pop/imap, using maildir, with 2000+ users mostly using pop but many using imap. Once in a great while I have problems with dovecot pop timing out. If I telnet to port 110 it just takes forever to come up or it doesn't at all, the samething happens on the imap port although 110 is always worst. At 1st when troubleshooting I was not sure what was causing the

Hi, I have test dovecot on one of my pop3/imap proxies (from rc10 to rc15). I immediately get a lot of error messages like this one : Nov 27 15:10:45 mproxy1 dovecot: pop3-login: file client.c: line 423 (client_unref): assertion failed: (client->destroyed) Nov 27 15:10:45 mproxy1 dovecot: child 21677 (login) killed with signal 6 A lot means one every 2 or 3 seconds. Any suggestion ?

Hi there, I've just been experimenting with the latest courier-dovecot-migrate.pl script and I notice that it favours keeping pop3 UIDL ordering rather than IMAP UID preservation. There is this comment (line 312): # POP3 clients may want to get POP3 UIDLs in the same order always. # Preserve the order even if it causes IMAP UIDs to change. Does anyone have details as to which

I'm getting some cra shes with 1.1.1, but even with these start options: #!/bin/sh mkdir /var/core chmod 1777 /var/core echo /var/core/%p > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern ulimit -n 65535 ulimit -c unlimited /usr/local/sbin/dovecot -F I'm not getting any corefiles - why?

Hi all, I'm sure my issues are a result of misconfiguration, but I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I'm getting pressure to move us back to GroupWise, which I desperately want to avoid :-/ We're running dovecot 1.2.9 on Ubuntu 10.4 LTS+postfix. The server is a VM with 1 vCPU and 4GB of RAM. We serve about 10,000 users with anywhere from 500-1000 logged in

Dear all i'm planning a transparent migration from a courier server that provides both IMAP and POP3 access to users to a remote dovecot server with both IMAP and POP3 access. I have to migrate about 2500 users for 250 GB of space. I'm using dovecot 2.2.5.4 on debian6 squeeze. To make a transparent migration i have to maintain old IMAP UIDs and POP3 UIDs, so i've read

Hi! I have problem with the pop3 service stops responding at random intervals on my server. We started to notice this problem as we're running icinga to check the imap & pop3 service. When icinga reports that the service is down. We try to telnet to the server on port 110 but it refuses the connection. I've checked the netstat during this time and it's listens on port 110. My

Hi all I am in the process of migrating Courier to Dovecot, am using courier-dovecot-migrate.pl<http://www.dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl>it works fine. I want to migrate each user as they login using post-login script (As i have huge no of users). We are using NFS storage, users are authenticated using mysql, User home directories as passed using variable mail ( usign mysql

Hi, guys. I've read the information in the Wiki about making dovecot's UID's match Courier's UID's in the POP3 server, so that a UIDL command on either server will return the same UID's for the same group of messages. However, what I've read doesn't match what I'm seeing in Courier. Courier appears to keep the UID numbers for messages that it uses for the POP3
