high number of processes
Hi,
Sometimes a script kiddie tries to guess passwords on our mailserver
(Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS, postfix, dovecot 1.2.9, scanners, the standard
stuff). That leads to a nagios message about the high number of
processes. The number goes above 500. Nagios threshold is set to 250,
which is more than enough for normal operation of this server. When are
these processes supposed to die again? They seem to

expire-tool skipping mailbox
Hello,
I have dovecot set up with expire-tool to nuke Junk messages greater than 30 days old. On a server with many user accounts, it seems to work on most of them.
However, on my user account, expire-tool skips my Junk folder entirely, despite it containing messages from January of this year. Here is the expire-tool --test output:

Thunderbird or Dovecot causing duplicates
Hey everyone, back on the list after a few years away.
I have a strange issue that is just annoying. Trying to work out if
it's Dovecot or Thunderbird causing the problem.
Basically, I read an email (so it gets marked as read) and then very
quickly I mark is as unread, (i.e. I realised I want to leave that
email for later) which causes a duplicate email to be created.
Generally I believe both

hoping someone has a suggestion
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

Help please: Migrating Courier imap - Dovecot (Postfix virtual mailbox domains)
I'm trying to migrate from qmail to postfix.
The original server is combo of qmail and Courier imap (no pop mailboxes)
I have a working Postfix config and had imap working with Courier imap on
the new server. I thought I would experiment with Dovecot as it has some
good press.
I have moved the contents of my original maildir's to the new server and

Postfix and Dovecot SASL
Hello all,
I am struggeling to get my Dovecot SASL to work within postfix. I have used
the configuration example listed on the main-site of dovecot and it
basically isn't giving me any success at all. I am probably missing
something easy, but after spending a few days testing and walking through
everything I could think about I thought figured it was better to ask :)
Hope someone can point me

Postfix, mailbox_command, Dovecot deliver, LDAP and mail_location
I am trying to tell Dovecot deliver to use $mail_location as the location to
store mail for system users. From the docs I've read
<http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation> I believe this is possible, but mail to
my system users always gets delivered to their /home/<USERNAME> homedirectory.
Here's what I've done so far:

Dovecot SASL doesn't seem to be working with Postfix
I've tried to setup Postfix to use SASL, but it still doesn't seem to be

Using LDA with postfix and virtual users
Hi list,
I have 7 virtual users in a sql database. I don't want any systemusers
or local delivery using postfix.
On the postfix side everything works fine as long as I use the 'local'
delivery agent. But since I want to use dovecot's sieve functionality I
set local_transport to dovecot. From now on Postfix seems to ignore
local_* settings like local_recipient_maps.

need help with public namespaces
Hello,
I need some guidance with setting up a public namespace with
per-user \Seen flags.
What I want to do is that a group of users access the public
namespaces and if user A reads a message, user B should still
see it as new until he reads it himself.
This is not happening now, and I can't figure out why.
Here's the config:

LDA, postfix and multiple virtual users : postfix is still the MDA
Hi,
I have some trouble to use dovecot as MDA. I followed the instructions
in http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA and http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix
I have multiple virtual users, stored in a LDAP server, and it look like
postfix is still delivering the mails directly to the maildirs.
Dovecot version : 1.2.15 (using the 1:1.2.15-4 squeeze packets)

User unknown in local recipient table? Dovecot LDA/Postfix
This probably is a postfix problem, but I think there are lots of postfix
experts/users on this list, and have heard a lot good things about this
list, so I am just giving it a try. Thanks in advance!
I am using dovecot-1.0.0-8_56.src.rpm downloaded from atrpms.net, and
rebuilt from it(rpmrebuild ...). Postfix is 2.4.3.
I followed documents at http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA and LDA/Postfix, and
