...hope I'm not in the wrong list with my question. First, I have to say that dovecot is (in my opinion) one of the best POP3/IMAP servers arround. I especialy like its' simplicity (configuration) and powerfullness (speed, auth mechs). In my production environment I would like to cange from tpop3d to dovecot, but I have only one little problem :). This is my situation: pop3 server: tpop3d mail fromat: mbox (/var/mail/username) UIDL: tpop3d UIDL format Since there are users who let mail on server, I need to keep UIDL. The problem is that the patch which gives dovecot the capability to repl...

Hi, Here is an updated patch which allows to use tpop3d compatible UIDL in dovecot (it's against 1.0rc1): http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/SOURCES/dovecot-tpop3d-uidl.patch?rev=1.2 which is based on: http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2006-March/012080.html Please consider merging it. -- Arkadiusz Mi?kiewicz PLD/Linux Team arekm...

Hello, I am new to the list and have spent extensive time researching performance suggestions through the list and the documentation. Particularly interesting is the recent performance thread related to the upcoming release. I just upgraded one of our email servers from tpop3d to dovecot 1.0rc19. tpop3d has served us well for many years; however, it basically has lost all it's support and developers. My main liking of tpop3d was it's speed. After the upgrade to dovecot, the server began to crawl. This server runs postfix for the delivery agent and now do...

Hello I'm looking at migration path from my current setup (tpop3d/courier-imap) and I seem to miss one feature - ability to ignore some subfolders for pop3. tpop3d allows me to say: maildir-ignore-folders: Spam Trash trash Sent sent-mail POP3-Invisible (would be stupid to fetch own sent-mail via pop3 again 8-) In recent tpop3d cvs version I can also use regexp...

Yes, again! :) I googled this issue but found no solution. Then, simple question - on this moment, it is possible without losing UIDLs or not?

Hello list, is there a possibility to submit a query after a login. I use this feature in tpop3d to write a popb4smtp log into mysql. I would like to replace tpop3d with dovecot for pop3 and imap. Therefor I would need something similar. Thanks for answers. Regards Karl-Heinz __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - You care about security. So do we. http://p...

Hello, I've attached a patch that adds an additional expando to pop3_uidl_format. The additional expando (%M) expands to the md5sum of the filename (which is already available via %f.) This UIDL style is compatible with tpop3d when using Maildir. The patch is against dovecot 1.0 beta3, and I'd love to see it be merged into the official tree. Comments welcome. -- Ben Winslow <rain at bluecherry.net> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed... Name: dovecot-1.0.beta3-tpop3d_...

Hi people, I am trying to migrate some users from tpop3d (Maildir mailboxes) to dovecot. The most important aspect of this migration, and which I cannot seem to get right, is to first be able to make dovecot to authenticate against the current DB being used by tpop3d so that I can use imapsync to transfer the user mails. And I do believe that is what I...

Since posting the previous thread we've setup a new system (Opteron 2.0ghz, 1gb ram, Fedora 6) for testing. I am hoping somebody very familiar with the indexing portion of dovecot can shed some light on this for me. After much testing, I've come to one primary conclusion that dovecot is possibly unnecessarily scanning or reading files within the maildir directories. Take a mailbox

Hello, I've taken a different (better) approach to getting tpop3d-compatible UIDLs: the first attached patch (...md5_modifier.diff) adds a variable expansion modifier (%M) to return the md5sum of the expanded variable in hex. With the patch, you can get tpop3d-compatible UIDLs by setting pop3_uidl_format to %Mf. While testing interactions with other modifiers (...

For lack of a better name, we are interested in a feature where one could get a notice out to all Dovecot users as quickly as possible, possibly without going through an MTA even. Given a message and a list of userids we could certainly do a mailing on the MDA server itself going through both Postfix and Dovecot LDA. However, we were wondering what other options we might have in Dovecot. For

What's the best package for a plain-jane pop3 server? Miark

I was hoping some one might be able to offer me some advice on a little problem I have. I am looking to A. move from mbox to maildir B. looking to move from tpop to dovecot to bring both pop and imap under the same program. anyways the problem I am having is this tpop3d mbox uses MD5 sum of the mailbox headers in hex which is option %m in the uidl section but the problem is when dovecot convert plugin runs and makes in a maildir it fails to find the md5 of this because it is only used for mboxs. if I change this from %m to %Mf it downloads every message on th...

Hi, Im attempting to configure dovecot for the first time, Im trying to use a MySQL DB that is currently used by tpop3d as Ive read they support the same password format. My main prob currently, apart from that it doesnt work lol, is that Ive enabled the following debugging in dovecot.conf auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_verbose = yes But Im getting basically zero info on why my authentication...

Hi, We're upgrading a cluster of servers from v1.0.15 to v1.1.x or v1.2.x. It appears that the UIDL generation mechanism has changed, and thus we'll be getting POP3 dups with users that leave mail on server (which is a nasty practice, I know). From checking the sources, and performing a number of controlled tests in various scenarios, here is the outcome: upgrade from 1.0.15 to

...n name (%d). This can then be used to build a specific reference to the certificate to be used, prior to responding to CLIENT_HELLO. Something like /etc/ssl/%d/[certs|private]/dovecot.pem One technique would be to include this in multiple dovecot.conf listen parameters read on startup, similar to tpop3d: listen = ###.###.###.1:993(domain1.tld);tls=stls,\ /etc/ssl/domain1.tld/certs/dovecot.pem,\ /etc/ssl/domain1.tld/private/dovecot.pem listen = ###.###.###.2:993(domain2.tld);tls=stls,\ /etc/ssl/domain2.tld/certs/dovecot.pem,\ /etc/ssl/domain2.tld/private/dovecot....

v1.1 plans have changed a bit. I'll release v1.1.alpha1 soon and hope to have a stable v1.1 in a month or two. The rest of the features that didn't make it into v1.1 will go to v1.2. I'll write more about this when v1.1 alpha is released. I also did a bit of benchmarking. v1.1's performance improvements are looking pretty great, it seems to be twice as fast as v1.0. v1.0:
