several misc questions, public folders and sharing, quota, ssl
Hello,
I'm running dovecot 2.29 on a freebsd 10.3 system. I'm wanting to
optimize how the system is running and have a few misc questions.
First ssl, is my cipher list good? I'm trying for pfs and wanting to
ensure these cipherlist is appropriate:
ssl_cipher_list = EECDH+AESGCM:EDH+AESGCM:AES256+EECDH:AES256+EDH
Next, a new feature that I'm trying for is virtual folders that store
All messages. My understanding of this is that it stores a version of
every received message in one place? I've got the virtual plugin
loaded and have:
mailbox virtual/All {
comment = All my messages
special_use = \All
}
I've got a directory /home/vmail/example.com/username/virtual under
which is an ALL folder both directories are accessible to the vmail
user, yet there's no contents in this folder and it's showing up
nowhere.
Next, quota warnings, are not being sent at all. I set up a testuser
with a quota of 2 mb, then sent a message to that user getting the box
to 95% full, and no message. Took the user overquota with the next
message, still nothing, and a third message did trigger my custom
quota exceeded message and the message was bounced.
I'm wanting to implement public folders. My mailboxes are all
virtual, and they are stored under /home/vmail/example.com/username
and /home/vmail/example.org/username in the maildir format. I've got
one user uid and gid of 999 name of vmail who owns all the mailboxes.
I've separated out public folders storing them under
/home/vmail/public. I've created one mailbox called TestFolder and
new, cur, and tmp directories under it. This is what it looks like:
ls -la /home/vmail/public
total 24
drwx------ 4 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:23 ./
drwx------ 8 vmail vmail 512 Mar 15 10:34 ../
drwxr-xr-x 5 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:16 TestFolder/
drwxr-xr-x 5 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:25 TestFolder1/
-rw------- 1 vmail vmail 8 Apr 13 18:15 dovecot-uidvalidity
-r--r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 0 Apr 13 18:15 dovecot-uidvalidity.58eff89a
-rw------- 1 vmail vmail 688 Apr 13 18:24 dovecot.list.index.log
ls -la /home/vmail/public/TestFolder
total 28
drwxr-xr-x 5 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:16 ./
drwx------ 4 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:23 ../
drwxr-xr-x 2 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:13 cur/
-rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 51 Apr 13 18:16 dovecot-uidlist
-rw-r--r-- 1 vmail vmail 304 Apr 13 18:16 dovecot.index.log
drwxr-xr-x 2 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:13 new/
drwxr-xr-x 2 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:13 tmp/
ls -la /home/vmail/public/TestFolder1
total 20
drwxr-xr-x 5 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:25 ./
drwx------ 4 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:23 ../
drwxr-xr-x 2 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:25 cur/
drwxr-xr-x 2 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:25 new/
drwxr-xr-x 2 vmail vmail 512 Apr 13 18:25 tmp/
The public/TestFolder is showing up fine and I can switch to it. The
public/TestFolder1 is not showing up at all so I'm not seeing it and
can't switch to it. Any ideas?
My second question involves public folders and domain sharing. Are
public folders accessible to all users and all domains? I've got two
domains example.com and example.org i'd like to create a folder that
some users in example.com can share with some users in example.org,
not necessarily all users in those domains should be able to see the
folders.
Ideas welcome.
Thanks.
Dave.

several misc questions, public folders and sharing, quota, ssl
Hi Aki, Thanks for your reply. Sorry, hit the reply to and not the reply to all option. So, even when a folder is a public folder I'm still needing to use the acl plugin? The public/TestFolder is showing up, the public/TestFolder1 is not. Thanks. Dave. On 4/14/17, Aki Tuomi <aki.tuomi at dovecot.fi> wrote:> Please keep responses on the list.
