[Dovecot] Messages not moved from Inbox by Apple Mail (Dovecot 1.0.10)
I just upgraded a server from Courier-IMAP to Dovecot, and I'm seeing some odd behavior. It's probably the result of something I did wrong in my configuration, and I'm hoping someone will let me know the easy fix for it. I have rules set up in Apple Mail to move and copy messages to different folders, some of which are IMAP folders, others on my own system. With Courier-IMAP, the messages would get moved without a problem. With dovecot, that's not happening. Here's my dovecot config. I've tried changing maildir_copy_with_hardlinks and maildir_copy_preserve_filename to "no", but that didn't seem to help. # 1.0.10: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login verbose_proctitle: yes first_valid_uid: 89 last_valid_uid: 89 first_valid_gid: 89 last_valid_gid: 89 maildir_copy_with_hardlinks: yes maildir_copy_preserve_filename: yes namespace: type: private prefix: INBOX. inbox: yes auth default: mechanisms: plain login digest-md5 cram-md5 username_chars: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_@% username_translation: %@ passdb: driver: vpopmail userdb: driver: vpopmail plugin: quota: maildir I haven't tried logging the IMAP session yet, but I can turn off SSL, fire up Wireshark and monitor the session if necessary. Is this a known problem? I'm able to move messages between folders manually, but when Apple Mail moves the new messages it doesn't work. -- Tom Collins - tom at tomlogic.com Vpopmail - virtual domains for qmail: http://vpopmail.sf.net/ QmailAdmin - web interface for Vpopmail: http://qmailadmin.sf.net/

I hadn't run the courier- to-dovecot migration tool before testing Dovecot on my system, so it lost the subscribed mailboxes. I got them back, but Apple Mail's rules that pointed to the old mailboxes were causing the problem. As soon as I updated the rules in Apple Mail, everything started working normally again. -- Tom Collins - tom at tomlogic.com Vpopmail - virtual domains for qmail: http://vpopmail.sf.net/ QmailAdmin - web interface for Vpopmail: http://qmailadmin.sf.net/
