It seems we have a few email addresses that are not RFC 5322 compliant, and now that we've started using sieve these are failing. The problem is that we have a few addresses with leading, trailing or double dots in the local part: jan..frode at tanso.net .janfrode at tanso.net janfrode. at tanso.net I believe these has been working fine with everything else in dovecot (lda, lmtp, imap,

I now have "mail_home = /srv/mailstore/%256RHu/%d/%n". Is there any way of asking dovecot where a user's home directory is? It's not in "doveadm user": $ doveadm user -f home janfrode at lyse.net $ doveadm user janfrode at tanso.net userdb: janfrode at tanso.net mail : mdbox:~/mdbox quota_rule: *:storage=1048576 Alternatively, is there an easy way

Guess I don't quite get namespaces, but we have the following namespace configured: $ doveconf namespace namespace { hidden = no inbox = yes list = yes location = prefix = INBOX. separator = subscriptions = yes type = private } But when I try running dsync it complains: $ sudo -u atmail dsync -u janfrode at tanso.net mirror mdbox:/tmp/janfrodeboks

I'm in the processes of running our first dsync backup of all users (from maildir to mdbox on remote server), and one problem I'm hitting that dsync will work fine on first run for some users, and then reliably fail whenever I try a new run: $ sudo dsync -u janfrode at example.net backup ssh -q mailbackup at repo1.example.net dsync -u janfrode at example.net $ sudo dsync -u janfrode

We've been collecting some stats to see what kind of benefits UP/SquirrelMail's IMAP Proxy in for our SOGo webmail users. Dovecot is running in High-performance mode http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LoginProcess with authentication caching http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/Caching During the weekend two servers (webmail3 and webmail4) has been running with local imapproxy and two servers

Hi This is my first post here so i will be as precise as i can I'm trying to setup a quota system using dovecot postfix and procmail dovecot version 1.2.9 postfix version 2.7.0 I have succesfully modified dovecot config to use fs quota system (so far imap and pop3) It reports correct quotas to imap and pop3 clients (both user and group) What im tryin to do now is to modify

I have a strange problems with quota on v2.0.14. We have an ldap user directory, and all users should have a mailQuota defined there. My problem is that some users gets the quota enforced, while others don't, and "doveadm user" doesn't seem to agree with "doveadm quota ge gett" Ref: $ doveadm user janfrode at example.net userdb: janfrode at example.net home

I'd like to get the IP-address of the webmail-klient logged in my maillog (for being compliant with coming data retention policies). I've noticed that with login_trusted_networks pointing at my dovecot directors, we get rip=client-ip logged on the backends. How is the proxy providing this to the dovecot backends? Anybody know what magic we need to implement in our webmail-solution to be

I'm having some problems with the sftpserver from yesterdays snapshot. It's working fine on the machine I built it on, but the (supposedly) identical machines I rdisted it to fails (SGI O2, Irix 6.5.11m). The client says: % sftp buskfuru Connecting to buskfuru... Enter passphrase for key '/usr/people/jfm/.ssh/id_dsa': janfrode at buskfuru's password: Received message too

I'm preparing to set up a new set of directors on dovecot-ee-2.1.10.3-1, but would prefer to do this a bit gradually. Will it be OK to set up a ring of directors with 2x dovecot-ee-2.1.10.3-1 and 2x dovecot-2.0.14 ? -jf

It's long over due, but now I finally plan on upgrading from v1.0.15 to v1.2.16 on our servers. Would appreciate any comments! We have 7 servers, all running of the same GPFS filesystem. Both maildirs and indexes are stored here. We use dovecot for POP/IMAP and deliver. Currently we're using mysql as authentication source, but want to move to using ldap instead. Can we upgrade one server

We upgraded our two dovecot directors from v2.0.14 to dovecot-ee 2.1.10.3 this week, and after that mail seems to be flowing a lot slower than before. The backend mailstores are untouched, on v2.0.14 still. After the upgrade we've been hitting process_limit for lmtp a lot, and we're struggeling with large queues in the incoming mailservers that are using LMTP virtual transport towards our

I need to migrate 15K users to a new domain name, and plan to use "dsync mirror" in the transition phase. Could someone confirm that this should work: Before giving users access to new-domain do a first sync to get all the stale data over: for user in $old-domain; do dsync mirror $user at old-domain $user at new-domain done Configure sieve vacation filter to forward all messages

Hello, Following Jan-Frode's advise I am trying this configuration: {postfix} ---lmtp---> {director} ---lmtp---> {dovecot} so I have two dovecot instances for director/proxy and lmtp delivery on ports 1024 and 24 respectively. whilst for imap connections I can specify a pool of imap backend servers via 'director_mail_servers' it seems is not possible with lmtp.

We have both dovecot and a webmail application that are both modifying our users maildirs, so dovecot indexes can be out of sync when the webmail has been messing with the maildirs. We also have a webservice that report how many unread messages a user has in his inbox, which is simply counting files in the maildirs (plus caching the result, and present old values if the directory timestamps hasn?t

Great information, thank you. Could you remark on GPFS services hosting mail storage over a WAN between two geographically separated data centers? ----- Reply message ----- From: "Jan-Frode Myklebust" <janfrode at tanso.net> To: "Stan Hoeppner" <stan at hardwarefreak.com> Cc: "Timo Sirainen" <tss at iki.fi>, <dovecot at dovecot.org> Subject:

Hi Everyone, I wish to create a Postfix/Dovecot active-active cluster (each node will run Postfix *and* Dovecot), which will obviously have to use central storage. I'm looking for ideas to see what's the best out there. All of this will be running on multiple Xen hosts, however I don't think that matters as long as I make sure that the cluster nodes are on different physical

Currently if user is 1MB under quota and someone tries to deliver mail that is over 1MB, Dovecot rejects the mail. But smaller mails aren't rejected probably for days. So user might not even realize that they didn't receive one of the mails. Also having a user "almost over quota" is a rather strange state I think. So what do you think about v2.2 allowing delivery of one last

Hi, we're in the process of setting up large-page support on IBM regattas, but for large-page support the users have to have a set of extra capabilities (CAP_BYPASS_RAC_VMM,CAP_PROPAGATE). This are configured on a per user basis by listing which capability each user have in /etc/security/user. Unfortunately they don't get set when the users log in via OpenSSH (3.1p1). Does anybody know
