I have a working Dovecot + LDA + Maildir setup and am looking to implement sieve with it. The examples that I have seen seem to be for mbox. Does sieve work with maildir? Looking to move mails marked as spam to a spam folder. Also we have a feature we offer to send spam to a different account in the domain. Could this also be done with sieve?

Last night dovecot died because of time changed backward. I noticed that the line from dovecot read Oct 9 01:00:44 mailstore16 dovecot: Time just moved backwards by 132 seconds. This might cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now. Shouldn't such lines have the word "Error" or "Fatal"? If I set the log_path = to a file, will syslog messages still be

After sending a messasge about a problem (The folder 'Inbox' cannot contain items. Namespace problems) I found what seems to be a fix in the release for rc29. Besides any potential configuration files, do I need to delete the old index files? Any of the dovecot files? Based on the release notes for rc29 it seems the following will fix the problem we are experiencing: IMAP: LIST

Is it ever necessary to delete any of the dovecot files when moving between machines from different RC versions? I read all the RC notes from RC15 to 31 and didn't see any notes about this, but wanted to be completely sure. Have some domains that I need to move from a RC15 machine to a RC29 machine. Also later this month we plan to ugprade from RC15 to Release 1.. when it is out shortly.

I am trying to enable rawlogs. I made a directory /home/dovecot/dovecot.rawlog/, changed dovecot.conf to have mail_executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/rawlog /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap Made sure the /home/dovecot/dovecot.rawlog/ could be written to. Even made it 1777 as a test. Made sure the FreeBSD user database points /home/dovecot as the dovecot user's directory (left

I am new to using Dovecot's LDA deliver. One particular item which I think may be improved.. If one uses logs instead of syslog and if Dovecot/Deliver can't write to the logs, mail is bounced. In contrast if it can't connect to the authentication socket auth-master, it defers. Shouldn't mail be deferred if access to the log files fails due to rights? Doesn defer makes more

Going to be transfering a number of domains from a Courier setup to Dovecot. Is there a way to get Dovecot to index the files before the users access their accounts?

Any suggestions on sizing login_process_size and login_processes_count for a server expected to be doing 100 to 200 simultaneous connections? Is there a way to separate login_processes_count between imap and pop? I would like to have at least 50 imap processes ready, but we rarely have any more than 5 to 10 pop connections. Would be a shame to have 40+ pop login processes doing nothing most

Timo Sirainen writes: > #expire = Trash 7 Spam 30 Does the above mean one will be able to indicate multiple folders to expire? That is great! Any thoughts on having a per mailbox setting? For ISPs , one may want to give users the option to enable/disable the feature and perhaps give them a choice of dates.. ie Trash 7 days or 30 days. Spam 1 day or 7 days.

Is there a searchable archive of the lists somewhere?

I use Cone as my primary mail client and after some inactivity I keep getting "Alert: still here" when connected to my home/test dovecot server. Have tried with thunderbird leaving a connection inactive for a while and thunderbird gets no warnings. Any ideas what this may be?

Is there a Todo list? Looking for it in search function I think I saw one in CVS.. Is there a web CVS interface? I found the changelog in http://dovecot.org/nightly/, but did not see a Todo.

Was going over the archives looking for any info on commercial support. Only found some emails back from 2005. Is there commercial support available? If not, any consultants that could help with an installation. In particular Courier 4 POP migration to dovecot.

Several attempts to support both Mac and PCs keep failing. In my latest attempt I used the following settings: #courier-imap compatibility/Thunderbird namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes } For MAC OS Mail.app namespace private { separator = / prefix = INBOX/ inbox = no hidden= yes } This last attempt was based on the suggestion of Timo Sirainen,

Redudancy and recovering from a mailstore failure is one of the concerns I am trying to address where I work. Any plans to have Dovecot store emails in a database? NAS/SAN devices which do automatic replication to a second device are extremely expensive. I also don't see any distributed filesystem which is mature and available for the OS we use (FreeBSD). I recall at one point, many

I see in this thread, http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2006-April/012918.html, that others had simmilar problems with Mac OS client. Anyone got a working Dovecot + Mac OS setup? In particular with RC15. Our setup default_mail_env = maildir:Maildir namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes } Would it help to use hidden = yes ??
