When is the maildir quota usages recalculated and written to the second line of the "maildirsize" file? I'm using 1.1.4, and I reset the quotas for my users by just taking the first line of their maildirsize file and deleting the rest. -- Ralf Hildebrandt (Ralf.Hildebrandt at charite.de) snickebo at charite.de Postfix - Einrichtung, Betrieb und Wartung Tel. +49

...w up. Even stranger is the fact that these same messages do appear when using Outlook 2k7 for instance. The common denominator for when the messages are missing seems to be whether or not the message appeared in both the Courier IMAP and Courier POP3 uid files. The missing messages appear in the CourierIMAP file, but NOT the Courier POP file. Here is a snippet from the resulting Dovecot-uidlist file: 3 V1141844265 N12392 9338 P00cf2eb6_fadc_4992_ad3a_57cc83a16eab W5146 :00cf2eb6_fadc_4992_ad3a_57cc83a16eab:2,S 9788 P0b18a2d6_97dd_4712_a09c_23c7a3d59467 W4055 :0b18a2d6_97dd_4712_a09c_23c7a3d5946...

Hi all, I have recently switched over to Dovecot from CourierIMAP trying for some speedup, which I did get. Installation went OK, so all seemed fine. But suddenly I realised, that incoming emails are replicating themselves. This seems only to happen when connected with Thunderbird. I am also using Squirrelmail and KMail as clients which don't seem to show...

Hi folks. I was doing some testing this morning and realized Dovecot RC2 isn't fully compliant with the maildir++ specification. Most notably, it appears that Dovecot isn't creating a "maildirfolder" file (0 byte length) in folders it creates. >From http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html "Within each subdirectory there's an empty file, maildirfolder. Its existence tells the mail delivery agent that this Maildir is a really a folder underneath a parent Maildir++." and "Make sure to create the maildirfolder file in any new folders create...

...: Fatal: master: service(imap): child 31268 killed with signal 6 (core dumps disabled) These can of course be fixed with maildir-size-fix.pl and deleting dovecot index files, but there are thousands like these. Dovecot 1.2 didn't have any issues with these old maildirs transfered over from courierimap. Best Regards, Toni Mattila

I've found what I think is an inconsistency in the Maildir quota implementation. According to the Maildir++ quota specification at: http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html Maildir++ quota can be specified as maximum size, or maximum number of messages, or even both. The size specification is supposed to be in bytes. So I could use '10000000S' to set a quota of around 10MB. Now, the Exim MTA has an independent Maildir++ quota imple...

...q server can be upgraded to Gentoo and be back in business as the PDC)? e) Relating to the set of questions in (c), if I have an existing openldap-v2.2.27 server running with a few LDAP Directories (with a domain/contact sort of schema built from LDAP fields in existing schemas like inetperson and courierimap and a few others) in it on a third server, would it be possible to use one of the existing Directories as the ldap backend authentication source for the new samba server or would I need to create a new Directory with a "samba-only" schema to be the ldap backend? Thanks for any replies....

Hi, I'm implementing a shell-script (pseudo) solution to the missing IMAP Outbox feature in Dovecot (Courier IMAP feature http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/INSTALL.html#imapsend) In order to remove the message from the Outbox once it is sent I have a question: What is the recommended way to delete a message from a mailbox (from an "external" server side program - such as a shell script) ? Can I just remove the file from the mailbox - I c...

I don't know if this is an Evolution bug or not, but when I use the maildir format with Dovecot 0.99.10p2 (from OpenBSD packages collection) and connect to it from Evolution 1.4 using IMAP, Evolution displays subfolders incorrectly. It actually does not show any subfolders, only root folders with names like "Folder.Subfolder" and "Folder.Subfolder.Subsubfolder".

Hi. It looks like Beta 7 is treating a zero quota in maildirsize as a literal quota value. The maildir++ specification says a zero quota means unlimited. Steve

...ese when reading the maildirsize file in maildirsize_parse(). It appears to be using sscanf to look for numeric entries: if (sscanf(*lines, "%lld %d", &bytes_diff, &count_diff) != 2) I've read and re-read the maildir++ specification at http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html and can't understand why Maildrop implements things this way.

...ota limit is near... more maildirsize 5242880S 0 0 2688058 1 1993336 1 ... if i move the message betweeen foders, dovecot say: quota exceeded. Is this a error? If i delete the message (trash folder), it not work too. would not have to work as Maildir++ specification says? http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html (Reading from a Maildir++) Thanks a lot.

...age from any folder to Trash, maildirsize gets two lines, one positive and one negative. The problem is that a user can't move messages to Trash while being overquota because the positive entry goes before the negative. I'm using dovecot-1.0rc14.

Hello, Currently I have a qmail server with vpopmail+courierImap. I want setup a new server in DMZ for proxy IMAP connections and I have a doubt with authentication method. I've read that dovecot can use a vpopmail driver for authentication. As my user database/password is stored by vpopmail, I think that this would be the best method for check the auth log...

Some information about maildir++ that I have read: http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Maildir When I have to deliver a message with an MDA I can use dovecot-lda. If I have enabled "quota = maildir:User quota" I am pretty sure that in the mailbox on file system I find a file named "maildirsize" maildirsize...

...t to what 'du' reports. How can I rebuild the maildirsize and why might it be wrong in the first place(?) Will the maildirsize files be regenerated if deleted and when will this then happen ( at the next time of the user logging in or?) >From what I can read here: http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html The maildirsize file contains (in linenumber > 1) "bytecount SPACE filecount" I also have one (perhaps more) user with one line having a negative value in maildirsize (-138204393 -2294) how can that happen / be corrected?

Hey everyone, Currently where I work we use qmail. Every time a message is delivered, qmail seems to walk through the user's entire maildir in order to calculate quota usage. Delivering messages simultaneously to just a few users who are allowed large maildirs (1-2GB) will bring our servers to their knees. Which brings me to dovecot. I use dovecot whereever I can, but haven't yet

Hello, About the INBOX location when using maildir, in the wiki, http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir, I can read: " Directory Structure ~/Maildir/new, ~/Maildir/cur and ~/Maildir/tmp directories contain the messages for INBOX. The tmp directory is used during delivery, new messages arrive in new and read shall be moved to cur by the clients. " But in my Maildir, I see
