Hello I solved my previous SSL problem by reinstalling dovecot2 ... :-) at FreeBSD 8.1 Now I'm using dovecot 2 , cool ... Actually my production mail server runs with MBOX format but reading the dovecot 2 wiki I read shared mailboxes are only working well with Maildir format. As I would like to setup some shared mailboxes, is it possible to have MBOX format for normal users ( UNIX NIS

Hello This is a bit off Dovecot but ... I'm searching some software to mirror mailboxes and IMAP forlders from the mailhub to another (clone) computer.

Hello I got this error message yesterday evening for a user I've checked LDA error log it happened 6 times in 3 days for 5 differents users, not much but I wonder what's going on as actually the server is moderately loaded ( Easter holidays ) we have currently 250/300 IMAP processes , in "normal" production time we have approx 1000 IMAP processes running.

Hi I have appended the important bits of my server configuration to the end of this email I am trying to get "Mailbox sharing between users" to work. For starters it is very hard to follow the doc only https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/shared_mailboxes/shared_mailboxes/ without an actual example. I tried to use this (sorry in German)

Having finished a few other projects, I'm contemplating trying to write a new mailbox module which could be useful for us here. I would appreciate any guidance. Basically, I need (or rather, could use) a module that provides a merge of two mailboxes (which are themselves accessed by other modules), cascading them, so that: * The user sees one mailbox M, which contains all the messages in

Hello We are facing a boring trouble with multi OB boot machines that access to our samba server. All machines authenticate to samba PDC ( linux debian etch + windows ) It appears when machines windows's bootup the shared secret is changed by windows if we reboot the same machine under Linux it cannot authenticate anymore because Linux does NOT change the shared secret ... The machines

Hello Since I've installed Dovecot 2 I've observed that TB does not notice new mails arrival in IMAP folders. When I click on a folder new mails count is updated, with dovecot 1 it was automatic. I wonder if it is due to the new TB version (lastest stable) or Dovecot 2 (2.0.11). I use MBOX format. See below the doveconf -n trace Thanks for any idea/info > # 2.0.11:

hello I see this message in the dovecot error log every time a user connect to IMAP service. imap(xxxxxxxx): Error: opendir(/user/xxxxxxxx/.imap) failed: No such file or directory In the server's config I've this mail_location = mbox:%h/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/spool/dovecot/index/%u As we can see INDEX files are not living in user's home directories but in

Hi there. I understood that in Dovecot 1.0 it should be possible to mix the usage of mbox and maildir mailboxes. I just downloaded, built, and am testing dovecot-stable-20050304. I'm a bit confused as to the terms of namespaces (haven't read that part of the RFC yet), but this does not seem related. Anyway, when I try specifying: default_mail_env = ~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u On

Hello Every night a backup of all mailboxes is performed to a NFS mounted partition All our mailboxes are now in MDBOX format. I wonder how it would be possible to recover one email accidentally deleted by a user ? It was easy in MBOX format to extract and save it using mutt ( as root ) from the backuped mbox then re-copy it to the user's mbox. Of course I should access to the backup

hello I'm trying to setup a server with public mailboxes only but I cannot succeed. Anyone could help me a bit ? thank you here is the doveconf -n output # 2.1.6: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: FreeBSD 7.4-RELEASE-p3 amd64 auth_debug = yes debug_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/debug.log disable_plaintext_auth = no info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/info.log log_path =

Hello Actually we use MBOX format for all our IMAP access but users complain they cannot create subfolders in imap folders, of course they cannot because of MBOX format ...

Hello When converting mailboxes I get that kind of error messages : dsync(xxx): Error: Next message unexpectedly lost from mbox file /user/xxx/mail/Sent at 9580036 (cached) the dsync command I run is dsync -u xxx mirror mbox:/user/xxx/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/xxx Dovecot mail_location configuration is : mail_location =

The config file indicates that if mail_location is empty, dovecot will try to find the mailboxes automatically (and by implication determine if the user is using mbox or Maildir format). But if the mbox inbox is non-standard (I have procmail delivering to ~/.mail) then one needs to specify mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=~/.mail and presumably dovecot will no longer try to determine what

Hello Is there a possibility for my users to encrypt their mailboxes through Dovecot ? They haven't direct access to the server, IMAP & IMAPS only. We use Thunderbird as client and mailboxes are in MBOX format Dovecot is running on a FreeBSD 7.2 server. Thanks a lot
