Hello,
I have searched but have not found any information on logging imap
actions. I want to log when someone uses imap to delete, move, copy, etc.
This would greatly help me when someone deletes an email and asks where it
went. I get this fairly often from a few users. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
Thank you,
Michael A. Painter Jr.

I'm not sure what kinds of things everyone wants to log, but here's a start at least. Suggestions for how to improve it and what should be optional is welcome. A typical move-to-trash + expunge is logged like this: imap(tss): Info: copy -> Trash: uid=387094, msgid=<1054290290.19156.426.camel at hurina> imap(tss): Info: deleted: uid=387094, msgid=<1054290290.19156.426.camel at hurina> imap(tss): Info: expunged: uid=387094, msgid=<1054290290.19156.426.camel at hurina> It also logs mailbox deletions: imap(tss): Info: Mailbox deleted: blah It doesn't log if mails are deleted by something else than Dovecot. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
