Any suggestions how user login/logouts should look like in log files? I was thinking: (connected to imaps port) Login: username [IP 1.2.3.4, imaps, compressed] Logout: username [IP 1.2.3.4, imaps, compressed] [1000/100000 bytes (50%), 00:00:12] Bytes being upload/download and the 50% meaning compression ratio for downloaded bytes, probably not worth it for upload. Or if uncompressed, it'd

It would seem that dovecot cannot detect my maildir. The system DO NOT use "~/Maildir". It is arbitrary across a few systems, actualy, and am curious if there is a way to "force" in the config file where the maildir explicitly resides, much like Postfix's "home_mailbox" configuration parameter. On a side note, I compiled dovecot 0.99.4 on a NetBSD

I have the most interesting problem... I've compiled dovecot from CVS with a checkout on 2002-12-15 around 23:00 PST. When I select a message in my MUA I can view it and stuff, however, if I select another message, or folder, the message disappears. It appears that dovecot shortens the Maildir message name to ":2,S" and then you can't access the message from the MUA again.

in the config file i have "ssl_disable = yes", however, i get this in my LOG_MAIL syslog: "Dec 17 00:21:07 host imap-master: Can't create temporary SSL parameters file /default/configured/directory/ssl-parameters.dat.tmp: No such file or directory" I know what the error is, and how to fix it, but it's an SSL thing which should have been disable according the

Timo, What is the "official" way to pronounce Dovecot? Is there a meaning to the word? A background on why you chose it? -- Jesse Peterson erage at softhome.net

Using passwd-file authentication I run into some problems.. This is my passwd file: user:0cc175b9c0f1b6a831c399e269772661[34]:6660:6660:0:/some/mail/directory/user:0::: My MUA tells me after enter my user/pass that the server disconnected, OK. So I netcat into the imap server, and issue an "C: LOGIN user a" in which case I get the error "Fatal: USER environment missing".

I realize this is not an SMTP discussion list, but... here goes: This is my situation. We have mobile users that need a secure (SSL) SMTP+auth gateway that simply forwards rfc822's to our real MTA. All it would have to do is accept SSL connections, authenticate the user, accept his message, then send that to the MTA. Anybody know of a very minimal software package that can do this? --

I'm probably missing something but.. from cvs: gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/home/erage/dovecot/cvs/dovecot/src/lib-index' source='mail-lockdir.c' object='mail-lockdir.o' libtool=no \ depfile='.deps/mail-lockdir.Po' tmpdepfile='.deps/mail-lockdir.TPo' \ depmode=gcc /bin/sh ../../depcomp \ gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../src/lib

Attachments, large mails & etc. seem to have problems with my installations of dovecot. As we know, Mozilla likes to take it's mail in chunks, and after Mozilla, (or Mail.app, it likes to do this, too) takes its first chunk, it doesn't start getting the rest, even though ethereal tells me that dovecot OK'ed the 10K chunk. 9 UID fetch 4 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY[]<0.10240>)

2003-03-24 12:59 Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi> This CVS update didn't actually seem to fix the problem. I still get the problem as before, like this capture: 10 UID FETCH 60 BODY.PEEK[]<8192.1915> * 60 FETCH (UID 60 BODY[]<8192> {1915} ) 10 OK Fetch completed. Not quite 1,915 bytes =). Perhaps the "[]" (without a part) is confusing it? But still, it grabs

Is this anywhere near consideration yet? (an alpha/beta/etc patch/module I can help test maybe?) Thanks, - Jesse

I couldn't reproduce this again (because i can't get imap-master running due to problem below..) but.. When compiling without shadow, passwd, or pam, when logging in I get after a successful login (in my syslog): Dec 28 22:39:38 badcase imap(username): MAIL environment missing and autodetection failed (home /some/home/directory) Now I thought this was covered in a previous fix before
