Hi, About a week ago I upgraded our reasonably heavily loaded mail servers from a pretty recent courier version to dovecot-1.1rc10. IMAP performance on dovecot is amazing, however POP3 performance is worse than courier :-( I have uploaded some munin graphs taken today to http://linweb.atlas.pipex.net/dovecot/; the dovecot server is handling about 2000 pop logins/sec and 300 imap sessions (but

Hi all, I''m using cobbler as our external node manager and it''s working really well (including deployment of ActiveMQ from RI''s RPMS and Mcollective - blog post coming soon!) however I''ve run into a problem with exim configuration files. We use exim in a number of different configurations depending on the role of the server (webserver/antivirus/outbound STMP/etc.) and I''d like to be able to send the correct config file to the puppet node based upon the class that is provided by Cobbler (webserver/anti...

Hi, I'm trying to set up exim (4.83) as a submission server, and need to set up the dovecot authentication in exim. I'm having an issue with that (documented at <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=756258>) The problem is that exim doesn't follow the handshake as described here: <http://wiki2.dov...

Had a surprising event on C 6.5. Exim was the only MTA installed. It was partially configured (with ACL, Router, Transport) and definitely not running. I was remotely testing a web page. A web page error condition invoked the embedded PHP mail() command. To my astonishment something in Centos woke-up Exim. Exim sent the email and the...

Hello all, attached patch makes possible to use dovecot as an authentication backend for Exim 4. Reasons beyond this patch are simple: exim's authenticators require use of plaintext passwords and NTLM code in exim is quite outdated and hairy. Patch generated against Exim 4.43, but should apply to earlier versions too. Patch adds new 'dovecot' authenticator, which can be used as...

hi, i'm running dovecot branch_10 cvs on OSX 10.4.7 w/ exim 4.63. i'd like to use Dovecot's SASL as an auth backend to exim, instead of Cyrus-SASL. @ dovecot's sasl page: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Sasl i know there's a patch against exim 4.43: http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/AuthenticatedSmtpUsingDovecot that, purportedly, enables EX...

The Dovecot wiki [1] doesn't list either Exim, Postfix or anything else as supporting the dbox. I did some searching in the Exim archives and have found only one message mentioning dbox, sdbox or mdbox. [2] I think an RFC would go a long way towards getting the format supported. Has Timo, or anyone else, considered submitting an RFC to the...

Hi, I'm not entirely sure whether this issue is with exim or with dovecot. First some background: I'm using exim with dovecot-auth which in turn is using LDAP for authentication. When using AUTH PLAIN with the optional initial response argument, everything is fine. However when using AUTH PLAIN without the optional response argument, instead of get...

...e from cyrus-imap to dovecot but I can not find replacement of one feauture presented in the cyrus-imap. It is LMTP. All mail users are virtual and mail works like: username at real-domain.com -> anotherusername at fake-domain.local. I whould like to check "delivery is possable" in the exim's ACL. In the exim+cirus scheme I use Callout verification from exim to cyrus and if user's quota is exeeded callout returns fail and exim does not take message for queueing. Dovecot has no LMTP and I see no possability to do such callouts. I tried to turn on quotas in the dovecot. Message...

Hello, I am looking for some advice. I am trying to force dovecot to run to the same log as exim does. In dovecot.conf I put the exim log path /var/log/exim/mainlog. I restarted dovecot and the process worked fine. However at midnight exim log file is rotated and since then dovecot stops logging to this log. In syslog.conf I put: mail.* /var/log/exi...

...cification 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 implementation, and it follows the specification, so if I set the quota in Exim to 10000000, it will work perfectly with sqwebmail and courier-imap. However, it doesn't play well with Dovecot, because Dovecot chooses to interpret the quota as kilobytes...
