Hello, I've tried many places, finally ending up here to ask my question: why is it so vital that the directory used with the ChrootDirectory directive is root-owned? Like many people I'm trying to use this in a webhosting environment where several users get sftp-only access to some directory, usually something like /home/user/web/part-of-website. I can be sure that there are no setuid

Hello, Is the signature-log backend of the antispam plugin broken when compiling with dovecot version 1.1.2? I'm using version 1.0 of the antispam plugin. It looks like there isn't anything more recent. cc -c -DCONFIG_DEBUG -DDEBUG_SYSLOG -fPIC -shared -Wall -Wextra -DPLUGINNAME=antispam -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I../dovecot-1.1.2/ -I../dovecot-1.1.2/src/ -I../dovecot-1.1.2/src/lib/

Hello, I'm trying to access a mysql database in a plugin. -What special compiler flags do I need? I discovered that when I don't explicitly link lib-sql/libsql.a in, then I get an undefind symbol error about sql_init when loading the plugin. Shouldn't the imap process itself have sql support linked in, rather than each plugin? -It appears that I need to call sql_drivers_init() and

Package: logcheck-database Severity: normal Tags: patch The rules in /etc/ignore.d/server/nagios contain the explicit version number "2". Now that lenny includes nagios3, those rules don't work anymore. Please change the rules to work for both nagios2 and 3. That can easily be done by replacing the 2 by (2|3) for example. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT

Package: logcheck-database Version: 1.2.54 Severity: normal The included filters for cyrus (/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/cyrus) are very minimal. The cyrus-imapd-2.2 has a more extensive ruleset (there's a /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/cyrus2_2 file in that package). Please copy over the filters from cyrus-imapd-2.2. I'm running logcheck on a loghost, which doesn't run cyrus

Hello, I'm trying to setup dovecot with sieve support in a way where all sieve scripts are precompiled. All sieve scripts are in /var/cache/sieve/. I believe I discovered a bug here. I describe below how to reproduce it. Dovecot and the user that deliver runs as do not have write permission in /var/cache/sieve/. h01:/var/cache/sieve# ls -la total 16 drwxr-xr-x 2 ecp ecp 4096 Mar 31

Hello, I have some questions on how quota-warning is supposed to work. -Does it keep a state, so that it doesn't send the same warning several times? Or should the script itself do something to remember it already sent a warning? -When exactly does it run? Does it run when deliver runs? Or only when the user accesses it's mailbox? Thanks, Alexander

Hello, I'm trying to build another antispam plugin, but some things are a bit unclear. In backend_handle_mail I put store the signature returned from signature_extract into my antispam_transaction_context. In backend_commit it appears that the signature is empty. (It wasn't in backend_handle_mail). Somehow between backend_handle_mail en backend_commit it has been cleared... When I use
