cannot use password-file for userdb
OK, I am attempting to use the userdb connection to facilitate per user
migration to Maildir format from mbox. Here's the first user:
more /home/dovecot.passwd
health:$1$MCtvt/Tz$FmKqU/cbWlBhKnhc5W.Ko.:1152:1152:/home/health:userdb_mail=maildir:~/Maildir
The configuration was set up as:
userdb passwd {
}
I changed this to:
userdb passwd-file {
args = /home/dovecot.conf
}

Migration Issues UW-POP3
I am migrating from UW's POP3 server (mbox), to Dovecote (mbox -> maildir).
Anyway, I am concerned about the Logging details offered by Dovecot, as
I manage several details from the logging information provided by UW's
Syslog information. Here's a sample of the UW information:
Oct 7 22:08:39 ns6 ipop3d[15432]: pop3 service init from 66.207.133.233

Authentication Error Message formats
I have been using UW's IMAP server and I am converting to Dovecot for
Maildir support.
When a user fails authentication, or a user does not exist, it appears
that the same message is used for these events.
Is there a way to indicate that the user does not exist (Invalid user),
and authentication Failure (Failed Password)?
Clearly these two failures indicate a different error in the system.

Can I translate the userid to match the UW-POP3 server?
OK, I have been running the UW-POP3 server which currently translates
all login ids as lowercase (i.e. Anthony becomes anthony).
Now the Dovecot server is very flexible and currently I have not found
how to translate the upper case characters to lowercase.
What configuration setting will translate the userids to lowercase?

mbox to Maildir conversion
I've been running a mbox solution using UW's IMAP server. I've run it
for years.
Now do to heavy message volumes, I've decided to to take the plunge to
convert to the Maildir format.
I am currently testing a single user, and have successfully converted
the mail messages from mbox to Maildir format, and now I am setting up
the procmail tool to place the messages into the correct

Dovecot 1.1.3 / 1.1.4 - not deleteing
Not sure what happened here, but today, all of a sudden, pop3 emails are
not being deleted. I was using the 1.1.3 version then upgraded to 1.1.4
now it no longer deletes emails.
Suggestions?

dovecot 2.1.15 hangs while connecting.
I am using Dovecot in two Server environments. My Legacy (5 years+
old) servers are running dovecot 1.1.20, and are responding as
expected. These servers are using an NFS based storage for the /home
directory structure, and are working beautifully. However, I need to
replace these inefficient servers, and get more current.
That brings me to the problem, where I am implementing Dovecot

High Load average on NFS Spool - v.2.1.15 & 2.2.13
I have two servers pointing to an NFS mounted mail spool with dovecot.?
Since I recently switched from using Dovecot v1.X, I have been
experiencing high CPU use with the two Dovecot servers. I am not certain
why they are not well behaved.? Here is the configuration information.
This configuration is currently running at a load average of 17.

Configuring mbox and maildir formats - dovecot-1.2.15
I am transitioning an existing server from using exclusively mbox, to
being able to support both mbox and then fully maildir formats.
I need to support the mbox format until I can get everyone switched over
to maildir.
What do I need to to use in the config of /etc/dovecot.conf to support
the default of mbox, and then the new Maildir format (users will get
upgraded individually from mbox to

Dovecot 2.2.13 error message
Maybe I misunderstand. Each user is only able to access their mailbox from a single connection at a time. Other users can access the NFS Spool from other connections, I think that is what I am calling Concurrent connections.
Is that the same definition you have?

NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED - Samba on Mandrake 8.2
I am attempting to integrate a Linux Samba Server with an NT 4.0 PDC.
Ideally I am looking to authenticate the users on the PDC, and then
permit access to the Samba Shares on the Linux Box. I have several
issues, but the one which is presenting itself currently is when I
attempt to Browse the PDC using smbclient. I get the following:

Concurrent access is not supported. One user should access mail using one backend at a time. You can use dovecot in director mode to prevent this.
