Hi, I would like to try implementing user specific default_mail_env's as described here: http://wiki.dovecot.org/moin.cgi/MailLocation using the LDAP attribute 'mailLocation'. However, I have been unable to find any LDAP schema which contains mailLocation. What schema is this attribute part of? Thanks, Jason Pepas

Hi guys, this page needs to be updated: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Maildir#Control_files (link was from here: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation) Section 'Control files' is mentioning only 2 files but, in fact, Dovecot will store some additional files in CONTROL location: dovecot-uidvalidity dovecot-uidvalidity.* subscriptions (anything more?) Even more, page

In reading http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation it is not clear to me the syntax for setting mail_location inside a userdb block. --

Hi, I've reported this some month ago before (without response), but still I have no clue what is going wrong. Our installation is LDAP based (for virtual hosting) and up to I think alpha2 or 3 everything was working as expected. The trouble I have is that dovecot does not correctly use the information it gets about mailLocation. This is what is stored in the MailMessageStore attribute

I've been trying to troubleshoot this for a while now, and I'm really at a loss. My userdb is set up correctly to return home, and mail, and a test with 'doveadm user' verifies this: # doveadm user user at domain field value uid 1000 gid 1000 home /var/domain/user mail maildir:/var/mail/user at domain I've reloaded, restarted, stopped and started dovecot

Hi Everyone, I'm now using dovecot with a POP3&SMTP server called JAMES. I want dovecot and james to share the email location. Both dovecot and james can store email in mbox format. However, the james will only store mbox mail repo in a fixed dir, such as: /var/mail/ And it will naming each user's mbox repo by its name, such as /var/ mail/tom or /var/mail/peter, etc. So I

Hi, I am trying to determine the correct LDAP schema I need to use to have either mailLocation or mailboxPath available ? Should I be just adding this to one of my own custom objectClasses ? -- Dave

Hi, I was setting up a new system for testing Dovecot 1.0. My old one is using 0.99 and was set up quite a time ago, so I had to consult the documentation. I needed several attempts until it worked and that was because the designated maildir directory /server/mail/jrg/Maildir was completely empty. Upon login the server exited and wrote the following to the log: POP3(jrg): Ambiguous mail location

Hello, I have not been using the home directory but I read in MailLocation.txt that I probably should. Does dovecot create each directory? What does it put in there? My server uses mbox format. My users all look like this: [root at sendmail log]# finger chayes Login: chayes Name: 50387.00 Directory: /home/chayes Shell: /sbin/nologin Never logged in.

I?m considering moving from maildir to mdbox, but don?t quite see how I should do the conversion with minimal downtime. Our userdb is ldap, and the we use this setting to point to the users maildirectory: user_attrs = mailMessageStore=mail=maildir:%$:INDEX=/indexes/%1u/%1.1u/%u,mailQuota=quota_rule=*:storage=%$ i.e. every user has a "mailMessageStore" attribute in LDAP that points to

Hi all I hope to get some help on the separator. I am sure that I hava a wrong understanding what the separator is. I thaught the separator is the delimiter within the imap folder structure. For example: Imap folder structure: folder Flights, subfolder Lufthansa If the delimiter is ?.? the ls ?a command should result: .Flights .Flights.Lufthansa If delimiter is

I have a strange problems with quota on v2.0.14. We have an ldap user directory, and all users should have a mailQuota defined there. My problem is that some users gets the quota enforced, while others don't, and "doveadm user" doesn't seem to agree with "doveadm quota ge gett" Ref: $ doveadm user janfrode at example.net userdb: janfrode at example.net home

Hi All, I've got a brand new dovecot installation. I'm new to dovecot, so please be gentle :-) Anyway, I'm getting some errors when I try to connect to dovecot. I've tried searching the web and haven't been able to find a lot of information. Here's the config info: # dovecot --version 1.1.2 # dovecot -n sudo dovecot -n # 1.1.2: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf base_dir:

Hello people! I'm new to the list and to dovecot too. In advance I'd like to thank everybody who could help me, and I'll be very glad if a could help somebody here. I'm working in a project to integrate dovecot and active directory authentication for 2 weeks without total success. I've tried so many waysto solve my problem, but no one gave me the right answer. I'll

Dovecot version: 2.2.34 doveadm import tries to call open() on the source indexes/logs of mdbox data, but even if it should work as it is just a read-related call, it fails on read-only filesystems. The main use case for read-only filesystem is restoring from backup: the massive deduplicated backup data is exposed using FUSE. For deduplication to work efficiently, we have to backup the whole
