charset-specific searches, and continuation lines
Hi there, I'm looking into improving IMAP search support for the Gnus Emacs mail client, and trying to add the ability to search non-ascii characters. So far as I know, I start this invocation with something like: . UID SEARCH CHARSET UTF-8 TEXT {NNN} Where NNN is the number of bytes in my search string. Dovecot then responds with: + OK So... what do I do then? I don't actually know

What do you mean by "iterate"? If you mean whether you can look up a password entry in a multi-entry file, then yes, definitely. If you mean to sequentially go through it and do a first/last/best match,

LIST command -- quoting of folder names
If I open an imap connection to a local maildir installation like so: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap -o mail_location=maildir:$HOME/.mail/account/:LAYOUT=fs And issue: c list "" * This is the result (this is a gmail account): * LIST (\HasChildren) "/" [Gmail] * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" [Gmail]/Spam * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" [Gmail]/Starred * LIST

minimal configuration for lucene fts
Hi, I'm using dovecot (version 2.2.13 on archlinux) in the simplest, no-brainer way possible. It sits between mbsync, which I use to fetch mail from servers, and Gnus, my MUA. Both mbsync and Gnus connect to dovecot with an invocation like this: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap -o mail_location=maildir:$HOME/.mail/ea/ I have three different mail accounts, all that changes is the final directory on the

iterate users with passwd-file passdb?
Apologies for the basic question, but I've been googling and can't figure out if this is possible or not. Simply: Is it possible to iterate over users if I'm using the passwd-file passdb driver? Do I need a SQL-based driver if I want to iterate? Here's what I've got right now. I don't have many users, and would prefer to retain the simplicity of the passwd-file if

Creating users on the fly, for testing?
I'm trying to set up a reproducible test environment for a MUA I'm working on, with accounts and dummy data that can be trashed and restored while testing. I'd like to exercise the IMAP client part of the MUA, and am looking into using a local dovecot instance to do that. I'm trying to make this as minimal-config as possible: ideally the test environment could create a dummy

recursive mail_location?
Forgive what may be a newby question, but I'm trying to get a new setup working, and there are many different things confusing me. I'm trying for a gnus + dovecot + mbsync arrangement, with mbsync writing to maildirs, and gnus reading from those dirs with a dovecot invocation. Fairly standard, I think. I have multiple email accounts I'm trying to sync, all of them gmail. My problem

Indexing Chinese?
My second (and hopefully last) question: is there any more news on indexing Chinese characters and words? Searching online mostly returns results from a decade ago or more, with nothing very conclusive. How close is this to possible? For the time being I'm doing some pre-processing on long strings of Chinese, breaking on punctuation in order to avoid errors. But I have some large corpora of

LMTP and public mailboxes?
Hi, I've been using postfix and dovecot for a few years, and have been doing public mailboxes with dovecot-lda, using a postfix transport that looks like (line wrapped for the mailer): my-public-transport unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/bin/spamc -u <me> -e \ /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f ${sender} -d <me> -m public/${user} So messages first

Can't build xapian-bindings in a virtual env
Hi, I'm on a Ubuntu 18.04 server, trying to use django-haystack with xapian in a python3.6 virtualenv. The virtualenv is set up not to use system packages, meaning that I can't just install python3-xapian-haystack with apt, and instead have to manually build xapian-core and xapian-bindings within the virtualenv. This works with xapian-core and the --prefix argument to configure. When I
