Hi, I have just noticed that one our box is still running ancient 0.99 version (shame on me). Is there anything what I have to take care about during update? I am completely aware about changes in configuration files so my question is mainly about existing maildirs. L??a -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

OK. After checking the 0.99->1.0 migration documentation, it seems I've been a little confused between customflags and keywords. (Though this is partly due to my repeated requests for clarification being ignored.) The page (http://wiki.dovecot.org/moin.cgi/UpgradingDovecot) says 1.0 does not use .customflags any more. Now, I'm hoping they're still supported, in which case I'm curious to know where those details ARE stored? If 1.0 does support custom flags in a usable way, I'll migrate next week (with Andrey's gzip patch applied :) -- Curtis...

Hi all, I was looking to upgrade my dovecot .99.14 installation to 1.0alpha5 today and bumped into an issue. My setup is on Mac OS X 10.4 and I am using After reading http://wiki.dovecot.org/UpgradingDovecot , I created a default dovecot.conf file with the following information grabbed from my prior installation: Snow:~ ed$ grep -v '^ *#' /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf|grep -v ^$ ssl_disable = yes login = imap login = pop3 auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = passwd auth_passd...

I need to migrate an old mail server running Dovecot (0.99.14) to a new server running Dovecot (1.0.7; as shipped with CentOS 5.2). My plan was to use the imapsync utility as this will "seamlessly" do the conversion from mbox to maildir between the boxes as well. I've got the MasterUser authentication working fine on the new host and was just about to start getting

I realize that there have been some big changes in features and configuration file settings between 0.99.xx and 1.0-stable, so when I went to perform an upgrade on our testing server, I carefully combed through the configuration files and matched up everything I could. I fired up dovecot-1.0-stable and was pleased to see that it was happily running. I attempted to connect to it, and

Can anyone help me with this issue? The CEO of our company keeps getting IMAP time out errors and "mailbox is in an inconsistent state" messages. He uses Outlook 2003. There are errors on the server side. This is what it says: "Jun 19 08:08:34 burmail imap(ed): Corrupted binary tree file /home/ed/mail/.imap/INBOX/.imap.index.tree: UID to be inserted isn't hi gher

Hi, I'm currently using Dovecot version 1.0 and I want to update it to the latest version. I know from version .99 to version 1.0 I had to change a few things on the dovecot config. When compiling the latest stable version should I just be able to use the same config I'm using for version 1.0 without making any changes ? Thank you Paul

Hi, now that a lot off software is updated e.g. RedHat EL and dovecot got finaly final :-) we plan to upgrade our mailserver from RHEL4 dovecot 0.99 to RHEL5 with dovecot 1.0rc15 - the rpms provided by Red Hat. I've read the upgrading Dovecot manual from here http://wiki.dovecot.org/UpgradingDovecot, but yust to get things right I'd like to ask some questions: Simply spoken, we use the basic default dovecot-config, mbox format and imaps/pop3s. So will there be any big trouble to just use the most default settings of the 1.0 config file? Or which options are compleatly different? Dose th...

I've been running dovecot 0.99.11 with postfix and postgresql in a production environment with about 25 real users and a couple hundred aliases split over a few domains for nearly a year now. No problems of any kind that I have noticed. Should I upgrade to the latest dovecot? What changes, if any, will I have to make? I've looked through the archives for a couple months without seeing

Since FreeBSD has decided to drop Dovecot 0.99 and only provide a port for 1.0alpha4, what are the considerations for upgrading from 0.99.14 to 1.0a4?

...sr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login auth default: passdb: driver: shadow args: /etc/shadow userdb: driver: passwd How can I get the new Dovecot acting as the old one?

I upgraded Dovecot and it was smooth except some of my users using POP3 and leaving their mail on the server, are getting all their mail again. Is there a way to prevent this from happening in the future? /var/run/dovecot was kept during the upgrade ... Thanks, LDB

Hi! I want to upgrade a Dovecot installation from 0.99.14 to 1.1.15, so I had a look at the following wiki article: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading?action=show&redirect=UpgradingDovecot The article http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.0 says something about .customflags -> dovecot-keywords and .subscriptions -> subscriptions change/conversion: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.0#Subscriptions http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.0#Keywords Do I understand it correctly tha...

Hi all, I originally posted this on postfix's mailing list but then realized that this COULD be a pop3 server problem since that downloads and deletes mail. This has only been happening since I upgraded from .99 to 1.0-7 ... Our users have been reporting double messages in their inbox, as well as emails that they deleted a long time ago reappearing. The only thing in my maillog is a

Dovecot version: 1.0.rc7 OS: Red Hat Fedora Core 6 CPU: x86 Filesystem: Linux I have recently upgraded from Fedora Core 4 to Fedora Core 6 (the FC6 was a clean install, not an upgrade).
