automx I am pleased to announce automx a tool that makes setting up a mail account easy. All your users need to provide is real name, mail address and password. Their mail client and automx will safely handle the rest. Say goodbye to mistyped server settings! Put an end to endless phone calls trying to...

Hi, I have an interesting problem: I am building dovecot packages for Ubuntu since 10.04. Never had bigger trouble with it. Now since 2.1.6 or 2.1.7 (I can not say more precisely), Thunderbird 10ESR and Outlook 2010 can no longer use 143/TLS correctly. Automx delvers 143/TLS and Outlook tells me that it can not create a secure connection. I changed automx to use 993/SSL and everything works. Under Thunderbird 10ESR, I get a box that tells me that I need to change settings. When I sent mail, TB told me that it could not copy the mail to the sent folder....

Hi Friends! An opinion. I would like to facilitate the configuration of one's mail client (desktop or mobile) to my users server. Some time ago I asked the same question and you suggested me to use "Automx". So I started of good will and I looked for the Automx documentation. And here the problems started as I found several inconsistencies, even parameters (in official documentation) that produce Apache errors.. to complicate things, different path between deb packages and official version :...

...d mobile client - can handle SPECIAL-USE live becomes easier. Clients don't create their own 'special folders'. They understand special folders already exist and adapt. No more superfluous ambiguous folders. Users will know where their messages have been stored. Note: Combined with automx [2] users will only have to enter their realname, mail address and (optional) password and their client will setup all the rest automatically. SPECIAL-USE started as a suggestion to friends at IETF. We sponsored its implementation in Dovecot [3], when it had become a RFC standard. Then we...

HELP! I have installed sendmail, dovecot, and squirrel mail. The squirrel mail portion of it works just fine, but I would like to have Mozilla Thunderbird as a client. Whenever I try and connect to the server it says "Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account." We do have an MX record in DNS pointing to our server. We are using Ubuntu 12.0.4.1, and have

I am trying to figure out if I need avahi on my mail server. I see that POP3 and IMAP are services that Avahi can advertise/discover. Does Dovecot work with Avahi and how do you get POP3 and IMAP advertised? And perhaps more importantly, what clients look for mail services this way? I can't find any information on this in the Dovecot documentation ot googling. Perhaps my search fu is

Hi Friends, I'm using on Debian Jessie, Dovecot 1:2.2.13-12~deb8u3. I would like to know if is it possible to auto-configure the email client, for example Thunderbird or K-9 mail. Essentially I would like to know if is it possible to let dovecot instruct the mail client about how to auto-configure the email client. Actually my mail server parameters are not automatically taken from

Hi, I have just discovered that the IMAP account setup wizard in outlook 2019 assumes that the email address for a user is the same as their username, and there is no easy way to separately enter different user. (It can be done via hidden dialog boxes, command line switches and registry hacking, but it is far from easy [1]) Like many small setups, the dovecot accounts on my mail server map

...a post login script for imap, to fetch acl groups from LDAP. Because Dovecot can only deal with a single value, which must be a comma seperated list of groups, I decided to use a post login script do deal with multi values in LDAP: This looks like this in LDAP: rnsMSACLGroup: admin rnsMSACLGroup: automx rnsMSACLGroup: amavis rnsMSACLGroup: postfix rnsMSACLGroup: dovecot rnsMSACLGroup: rspamd rnsMSACLGroup: powerdns rnsMSACLGroup: sogo rnsMSACLGroup: zabbix rnsMSACLGroup: dane-users rnsMSACLGroup: gentoo rnsMSACLGroup: openbsd My post login script looks like this: --------------------------------...
