...Snap snap snap went my folders opening.. wow, so fast! And as I got into work this morning... nobody knew a thing. If I hadn't asked a few people to let me know, nobody would have known a thing. My thanks to you, Timo. Thank you for making my life easier. -- Curtis Maloney cmaloney at cardgate.net

...r:~/.imap/:INBOX=mbox:/var/mail/%u But had no luck. Is it only 1.0 that can work with two different mailbox formats? Or did I screw up somewhere else? In the end, it actualy saved me a fair bit of work, since I'd have had to move everyone's old inbox. -- Curtis Maloney cmaloney at cardgate.net

When I attempted to import my Contacts list into dovecot, my mail client told me that the IMAP server did not support "Special" folders. Is there a way to to do the contacts, or sync up Contacts & Calendar from a database or something else? I'm using both Thunderbird and Outlook. Thanks. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

...an do this myself, but 1- my time is very very limited, working two jobs, and 2- I'm not running 1.0 yet, as it apparently still doesn't support my Thunderbird users tagging their messages (am I wrong? please tell me I'm wrong... I want to upgrade! :) -- Curtis Maloney cmaloney at cardgate.net

Hi all, I'm trying to replace the "Public Folders" functionality in Exchange server. At first I thought it'd be something easily do-able with an IMAP server so I immediately thought of Dovecot. I setup what I though would work and things started to go a little screwy with subscription settings and the like. I started off by making a public maildir folder (in

I am currently running Dovecot on DoD production email server (Postfix) and the latest version the software available from Redhat is dovecot-0.99.11-8.EL4. According to you guys, this is ancient and I was wondering what is the safest and easiest way to get my version updated without breaking it... Thanks for any help and or points in the right direction... [root at mail ~]# dovecot -n Usage:

Hi Guys, I've installed postfix + dovecot + postfixadmin + mysql in my CentOS 4.5 box and I would like to test it using telnet however I can't telnet it using the following syntax: $ telnet localhost pop3 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1). Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot ready. user testuser at domain.com pass password -ERR Authentication

If I copy message files (from a command prompt) will dovecot get upset or confused? Do I need to delete index files or anything like that? I ask because I need to restore some messages from a backup, but not restore the entire maildir. I tried some the other day as a test, but the user is saying that they didn't appear. TB

Hi, Just wonder if it's possible to run two dovecot servers on two different machines, but serve out of the same directories. I would like to test second dovecot server before switching from first one to second one. Any suggestions? Simon

Hi there, anyone interested in Debian Dovecot 1.0.1 packages? I have created a package for etch/stable... Could do that for sarge/oldstable as well. Greets, Maurice.

I have several POP mail accounts. I have installed and partially configured Dovecot 1.0.0 on Debian sid. I am having trouble understanding some of the basics. For starters do I need to fetch my POP mail (fetchmail, etc.) myself? TIA, Paul Scott

Hello, I have a suggestion which might be a small and very useful project for a C coder (I'm not one!). As Dovecot makes its authentication interface available to other programs, I think that an Apache module to use it would be very useful. Currently I share an passwd-db file between Dovecot and Apache. However with Apache that means I have to give Apache read access. That means that

Hi, it's not yet a bug report, just a question: After I was successfully using dovecot-imap and Thunderbird for quite a while without any problem (debian unstable), I now sometimes experience that the IMAP-connection hangs and thunderbird waits forever when accessing a folder. I did not yet analyze the problem and I am not sure whether it is a thunderbird or a dovecot problem. Did anyone

Hi all, I'm working on setting up dovecot on a test system. When I try to start dovecot I get this error: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 504: Expecting '=' Line 504 in my config is this: auth default { passdb sql { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf } userdb sql { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf

Hi all, I cannot get Thunderbird 0.8 to work with my dovecot IMAP server. It works fine with my work IMAP account - I'm not sure what they are using. What happens is that folders that I create in Thunderbird or Evolution can only contain subfolders or messages, not a combination of both. Folders which contain subfolders and not messages show up in Thunderbird grayed out. I can expand them

Hi there, I'm currently running IMAP with Courier and POP3 with Solid-POP3d. I'd like to migrate IMAP and POP3 to both use Dovecot. All this works fine in testing, except for the fact that I have two types of users for legacy reasons. One type of user has a Maildir-style inbox at ~/Maildir/ The other type has a mbox-style inbox at ~/Mailbox Is it possible to make Dovecot look for

...use .customflags any more. Now, I'm hoping they're still supported, in which case I'm curious to know where those details ARE stored? If 1.0 does support custom flags in a usable way, I'll migrate next week (with Andrey's gzip patch applied :) -- Curtis Maloney cmaloney at cardgate.net

Hi, Does anyone know where to find a how-to to get dovecot working with Solaris. Specifically how to setup plain authentication? Thanks in advance, Sander

Hi, I just recently installed dovecot, and I am having the following problem: If I send an email to my account on this new machine, I can log in via SSH and use the unix mail command, and instantly my email is visible. If I turn on Thunderbird, it will show my new message. If Thunderbird was already on and had already checked the mailbox, even if I click on get new mail for that specific
