Hello All, I just have a quick question about doveadm commands. 1. Is there a command that we can use to count emails for a particular end user? 2. If an end user needed to copy/move emails from one account to another, is there a command? Also, I've searched Google results, numerous Ubuntu, CentOS, Fedora forums, Doveadm forums, and read the DoveCot/DoveADM man pages numerous times and

I need to run a mail-migration from a Dovecot with mail_attachment_dir / single instance storage enabled. As mailboxes and mail_attachment_dir are rsynced I would normally run a doveadm backup -u <user> -R -d dbox:<path to rsynced mailbox>/dbox How can I tell it the mail_attachment_dir the rsynced source / (reverse) destination uses? Or do I have to start a Dovecot process and use

Hi, Running doveadm on Alpine Linux will show various underlinking errors: /usr/bin/doveadm: symbol 'acl_user_module': can't resolve symbol in lib '/usr/lib/dovecot/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_acl_plugin.so'. /usr/bin/doveadm: symbol 'acl_identifier_parse': can't resolve symbol in lib '/usr/lib/dovecot/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_acl_plugin.so'. ...

We are configuring location= running a bash-script during imap-postlogin setting $MAIL in $USERDB_KEYS, as described in wiki/PostLoginScripting.txt This works fine. However, running a command like 'dovadm index [-u user] folder' only works for users with settings that match the default in mail_location= Would it be possible to make the location available for doveadm in a similar way, either with command line arguments or in the enviroment? hmk

Hi everyone, Can someone explain me why dsync need read-write access to source box when pulling data (dsync -R backup)? I am working on migration from Dovecot 1.x with maildir to latest Dovecot 2.2.15 with mdbox and found that there is no way to do this from ro filesystem (got "failed: Read-only file system" on access to /dovecot.index.log). I am wondering is it bug or feature? I

Unless someone out there advises me against doing this, I'm going to try it. I've also seen `dovadm import` as a possible suggestion, though if a simple copy works I don't see why anyone would use `dovadm import`. --Mark -----Original Message----- From: Mark Foley <mfoley at ohprs.org> Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2015 17:13:50 -0500 To: dovecot at dovecot.org Subject: How to Restore emails I h...

...ld serve 1000 user (only imaps) without rejecting a users connection because of to short resources. With version 1.x I had to increase login_max_processes_count = ... With 2.x I'm not sure which parameters I have to set. So Thunderbird 3.x has a default value of 5 connections to cache. "dovadm who" shows quite often 5 connections: userx 5 imap (11154 11152 11158 11156 11150) ... So dovecot has to be configured for 5000 connections/imap-login's?

I have a user who accidentially deleted a large number of emails prior to a certain date. He wants them back. I do have a tarfile backup of these messages. Is there a good way to restore them? Can I simply restore them to the appropriate Maildir directory and dovecot will just "figure it out"? Thanks, --Mark

I don't know the answer to your question, but in case you don't get a suitable answer from someone better qualified than me, you might try having dovadm pull the data my making an imap connection to the older server like: doveadm -o imapc_features=fetch-headers -o mail_prefetch_count=20 -o imapc_port=993 -o imapc_ssl=imaps -o imapc_ssl_verify=no -o mail_fsync=never -o imapc_host=mail.example.com -o imapc_user=mailuser at exmple.com -o imapc_passwo...

I have a question? Is it possible that with doveadm delete all but the last x-number of messages in a folder. For example to retain the last 200 messages in the folder. If it is possible, how do you do it? Something like "doveadm expunge -u jane.doe at example.org mailbox xxx" Thank you! -- //Tommy

Hi, After reading the following paragraph from the dovecot doc, I've been wondering how it would affect rsync (when combined with gzip): "Expunging a message only decreases the message's refcount. The space is later freed in "purge" step. This is typically done in a nightly cronjob when there's less disk I/O activity. The purging first finds all files that have

Hi all, The guidance provided so far has been really helpful, and has helped a great deal to bringing down wasted energy on finding and executing a viable path. I am now at the final due action to complete our Dovecot application to our use-case, but am stuck on an issue that I cannot find any easily accessible documentation on. Generally this is what has been done: 1. Uploaded the enterprise

I have a replication set up with two dovecot 2.3.4 servers. Messages appear to be replicating fine between them, however there is an oddity when I run doveadm replicator status '*' and I'm worried work is being carried out needlessly. Both machines have identical configs and have a mysql backend for username/passwords.? Both machines point to the same mysql server and same

...le have been very confused. My finding was that \Noselect is a function of the IMAP specification server-side implementation RFC3501 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501#section-6.3.6). And for me the server was returning directories with \Noselect because the mailboxes were malformed on account of dovadm-sync errors. In order to fix this I formed a bash command to transverse the mailbox hierarchy and create the missing folders critical to the sdbox format, namely DIRNAME.
