search for: mailbox_transport

Hi, I'm trying to use dovecot-lmtp so that I can filter messages with sieve, however it doesn't appear to be working. I followed the instructions on wiki2.dovecot.org. I'm running Debian Wheezy. I've got runit configured to execute postfix and dovecot, which may be the source of the problem (runit executes /usr/sbin/dovecot -F). I've got mail_debug turned on and there is

I really want to try and get this plus addressing working correctly with Dovecot and Postfix. After doing some reading I think I am going to change my Postfix setup from mailbox_command to mailbox_transport. I have a few questions to make sure I am thinking correctly. All of my users are system users. Their mail is delivered directly to their "/home/<user>/Maildir" directory. Everything works great and I have no problems. Here is what I am thinking of doing. 1. Create a ne...

I am setting up a new system that will be using Dovecot with Postifx. I am planning on using LMTP. I read the wiki and and found the settings I need to make in Dovecot and the Postfix main.cf file. However, I saw nothing about the Postfix master.cf file. Do I need to make and changes to it also? Thanks -- Jerry

I have 2 hosts: (a) - dovecot-1.0.5-6 - postfix-2.4.5-20 -> It's not the mx record for the domain, just holds the mailboxes -> Postfix uses LDAP for user lookup, dovecot too. -> Works ok if I set it to be the final mail destination, with Cyrus and Dovecot LDA (mailbox_transport). -> Has no domain associated (dns) with this ip address (b) - postfix-2.3.2-28 -> Has the mx record for that domain, has ip address that the domain points to. (users @ domain.org) -> Works ok if I install dovecot and set the mailbox_transport to be on this machine, both with dovecot and...

If I omit this line so that postfix sends email directly to ~/Maildir I have no problem - except that spam is not being filtered. I give the output of postconf -n below.

Hi there, I'm using Dovecot together with Postfix; as I understand it, there are two ways to transfer the mail from Postfix to Dovecot. 1.) by using LDA with mailbox_command = /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f "$SENDER" -a "$RECIPIENT" 2.) by using LMTP with mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp (currently using number 1) I'm interessted in the differences and the advantages/disadvantages of each of those solutions. According to http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LDA the recommended way is to use LMTP, since it's supposed to have a better performance. On th...

I am using Mac OS X Server. OS X Server uses postfix with dovecot set as mail_transport. I want to add procmail to the mix. I cannot use the (typical) mailbox_command = procmail -a "$EXTENSION" because mailbox_transport = dovecot overrides any mailbox_command parameter and it is NOT Possible to change, remove, or otherwise vary the mailbox_transport on OS X server. I'm thinking I should be able to set up a content_filter for procmail, but I've found nothing online to tell me if this is possible or how to...

Dovecot LDA has been working fine for me but when I tried to follow the wiki and switch to LMTP I get: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table; In postfix/main.cf I went from: mailbox_transport = dovecot-spam to mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp Added this: service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } } protocol lmtp { mail_fsync = optimized postmaster_address = postmaster at...

Hi, OK. I tried your suggestion. I modified the dovecot config file "10-logging.conf", like so: log_path = syslog and mail_debug = yes It appears that the logging goes to "/var/log/maillog", not "messages" as I expected. Restarting service dovecot produces info in the "maillog" file showing the restart: ... Jan 22 15:20:14 coe dovecot: imap: Server

...conf): mail_location = maildir:/mailboxes/%u and it works fine. Because I'd like to use pigeonhole I'm trying to make local delivery via dovecot LMTP (https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixDovecotLMTP). I've configured the socket and added to `/etc/postfix/main.cf' the line: mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp I think that id dovecot handles mailboxes correctly over imap/pop it can easily find the users and their mailboxes so it doesn't need any additional configuration for LDAP. Unfortunately it doesn't work and results in: Undelivered Mai...
