I've recently installed dovecot (0.99.8.1) from the Debian/woody backport at 'deb http://src.braincells.com/debian woody/' Previously, all mail have been delivered to mbox'es in ~/Mail by exim/procmail -- ~/Mail/inbox being my main mailbox. Whenever I attempt to connect with an IMAP client, the connection is closed and the following error is reported in /var/log/syslog:

Hey, I am setting up Dovecot on Debian with Postfix. I am telling Dovecot to use maildir:~/Maildir but it persists in dumping mail in mbox format in /var/mail/username. Can anyone suggest ideas? My config file is attached. Thanks Kevin -------------- next part -------------- ## Dovecot 1.0 configuration file # Default values are shown after each value, it's not required to uncomment #

Hi folks. New to both dovecot and openldap. Trying to set up virtual domains using the wanderingbarque howto: http://www.wanderingbarque.com/mailserver.html Platform is RH enterprise 3. Only difference is I'm trying to use phamm instead of jamm: http://phamm.rhx.it/ dovecot doesn't seem to want to play nice with my openldap; everything else (postfix, etc) seems to work alright.

I have a really weird problem. To whit: I compiled dovecot 0.99.10 on two different systems: a linux-ppc box running Debian, and a Mac OS X Server v. 10.2.8. It compiled fine on both. The same Maildir's are being served up on both -- the OS X server exports home directories to the clients via NFS. BUT the OS X box orders mailboxes this way: INBOX Deleted Items Sent Items . . . And the

Exception to this are paths, they're just examples # with real defaults being based

Hi, I am running dovecot 0.99.10.4 on SuSE 9. I installed it using apt-get from the gwdg repository. The dovecot service is configured to start at boottime in run level 3 and 5.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello all, I'm migrating to Dovecot from Courier-IMAP. I use Postfix with Maildir for delivery. When I use Dovecot as the IMAP server all of my folders are missing, the only thing that remains is the Inbox folder. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I have enclosed my configuration.

I am running Dovecot and wanted to make sure that to disable POP3 access on the MDA is as simple as removing the POP lines: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s imap_listen = * pop3_listen = * imaps_listen = * pop3s_listen = * Do I need to modify anything else or am I looking in the totally wrong section: -- Man your battle stations...

I can connect using imap, but when I try using ssl (imaps) I get a can not connect to server error. I have in my dovecot.conf protocols = imaps imap imap_listen = * imaps_listen = * I DO get a connection when I telnet to port 993 of my server (both localhost and remote work). Any help much appreciated.. Jay

Hi all, I am new to dovecot and squirrelmail and I am trying to configure squirrelmail with dovecot as its imap server.

I just set up dovecot on fedora core 3 with only pop3s protocol enabled. On my client machine, I use fetchmail to get the mail and then go through procmail and eventually ready by mutt. Everything seems to work fine, except that all new emails are marked old unread emails (i.e., marked with 'O' flag instead of 'N'). This is annoying because some open source lists are so large

I have dovecot-0.99.11-1FC3.4. I use Pine on the server and Outlook 2003 on remote computers to access IMAP and POP3 to access via my blackberry 7100t. It seems that after using IMAP and then going back to pine it somehow refreshes everything and all the messages are picked up on my blackberry once again as if the emails are new. So everything that is in my inbox is now pushed or grabbed
