Hi there! I'm using Dovecot 1.1.7 in a simple setup with a static userdb: userdb: driver: static args: uid=50018 gid=50019 home=/home/dovemail When my users create folders via IMAP, the ownership of the mbox file is user dovemail, group dovemail, and permissions are 600. I'd like this to change to user dovemail, group doveusers, permissions 660, but I can't figure out a way to do it. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance. -- Cheer...

Hi, In a cluster with two servers and replication via dovecot-dsync, this error is logged: server1 dovecot: dsync-server(<user>): Error: Couldn't create lock /var/lib/imap/user/6a/<user>/.dovecot-sync.lock: No such file or directory This is because "/var/lib/imap/user/6a/<user>/" doesn't exist in server1. In another cluster node, the directory exists and

This is a single mail user setup (user/group "dovemailer", uid/gid 999). Service lmtp has been configured to run as that user; that required a slight adjustment at the auth-userdb socket level. As a general rule, the quota dict appears to be correctly updated upon message arrivals and removals (thru lmtp, pop, imap), and to be correctly queried/...

...dovecot 2.1.7, and I was able to do a successful transition of IMAP. But I had a very hard time with receiving mail, and in the end -- after loads of reading and debugging -- I broke down and failed. This is why I am asking you for your kind help. I only have virtual users and have set mail_uid = dovemail mail_gid = dovemail For authentication, I simply use (for now) a flat file: passdb { driver = passwd-file args = scheme=PLAIN username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/mypasswd.file } # cat /etc/dovecot/mypasswd.file user1:{PLAIN}userpw1 user2:{PLAIN}userpw2 user3:{PLAIN}userpw3 And everything works...

Hello, Let's say dovecot.conf contains: mail_uid = dovemailer mail_gid = dovemailer mail_home = /some/path/%n mail_location = mbox:~/mboxes:INBOX=~/mboxes/inbox and that the password database query is of the form: password_query = \ SELECT \ passwd AS password, \ nickname AS user, \ mail_home AS userdb_home, \ mail_location AS userdb_mail, \...

...d in case it doesn't figure out itself that there's something wrong. I'm starting to think about building a more generic mailutil tool, maybe something similar to what UW-IMAP has. So two questions: - What should the tool be called? Probably not mailutil to avoid confusion. doveutil? dovemail? dovetool? mailtool? - Is there any functionality you'd like it to do? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

..., dovecot creates the needed directories and everything is fine. But I get that error every few days and I must create the directory by hand. Am I running the deduplication process correctly?. It is launched as "root" and I would expect it to "setgid()" to the right user/group (dovemail). Should I run it in the dovemail cron?. I have a faint memory of getting the very same error in that case, a missing hash directory, but I am not sure I am recalling correctly. Any advice?.
