I'm trying to understand how to deliver mail to an address locally which is popped from my isps email account. I access and keep these emails backed up on dovecot and use postfix smtp to deliver mail. The problem is that while fetchmail uses dovecot lda directly, postfix can't include my isps domain in its $mydestination because I won't be able to send mail to other users in that

...o far with normal local /etc/passwd users for domain example.com. mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir passdb pam { } userdb passwd { } Is it possible to add virtual domains/users to my setup without changing example.com to a virtual domain? I can do the postfix part with http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html#virtual_mailbox but I'm not sure if I can mix dovecot (IMAP and maybe smtp auth) for both local and virtual users. Any hint would be appreciated. best regards, Giannis

Hi, I'm having a problem with dovecot and postfix. I'm using a dovecot version 2.0.13. Postfix (Version: 2.8.5) config is changed according to the http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix: I have thought to build a virtual user and virtual mailbox, and use the functionality of the Sieve. However, when the test set, the mail not received the mailbox. Record that there was a "temporary

...do in such a situation? A catch-all address could be set up, but to what end? It would just catch a lot of spam over time. What is the correct way to deal with this? More importantly: is there even anything Dovecot could (or should) do?

I have followed the instruction here: http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html#virtual_mailbox There are five virtual domains configured and each directory containing each domain is owned by one UID/UID with permissions of 700. I can send mail to each domain and it is stored in the appropriate Maildir under the correct directory. The system is OpenBSD 3.8 STABLE....

> Dec 11 17:46:54 kines imap(nando at kines.dyndns.org): > opendir(/usr/libexec/dovecot/imap) failed: Not a directory My guess (you haven't provided logs or configuration information) is that you have a misconfiguration of your mail delivery agent. It looks like postfix is trying to deliver your mail to a directory that is actually a file. I'd troubleshoot that. If you get nowhere

I have just followed Johnny Hughes' excellent walk-through on how to install Postfix, MailScanner with ClamAV and Spamassassin and it seems to be running fine during in house testing, but I want to make sure that it behaves itself when it goes live serving about 250 users; I have read comments elsewhere both for and against the use of Mailscanner with Postfix, and when I mentioned the subject
