Hi, all. About two and a half years ago, I wrote a hack to add an additional MD5-based password scheme to Dovecot, but I wrote it as a hack to src/auth/password_scheme.c since it was relatively easy to do, and I needed to get a machine running since the machine I was replacing, a Sun Ultra 5 running Post.Office, had dying hard drives. Now, I'm actually sitting down and adapting it as a

Hi, all. I managed to get my new password scheme routine written, but a couple of things: 1. The example module lacks an init routine. Since I used it as a model, my module also lacks one. As such, my newly-built module is seen but not registered. In the meantime, I moved the routines into password-scheme.c instead where I had access to all the MD5 routines already set up for me. 2.

Hi, all. I was curious how difficult it would be to add a new password scheme to Dovecot? I have to transplant mailboxes from one machine to another, the older machine running Post.Office from now-defunct Software.Com, which was bought by OpenWave, then discontinued. Apparently, Netscape's mailserver offering from the day also supports this scheme. There's code out there that was

Hi, all. I have successfully deployed the code I wrote to handle Post.Office password hashes. However, I had to implement it as a hack to password-scheme.c. I'd like to implement it as a module so I don't have to hack Dovecot whenever a new release comes out. However, I had a few thoughts: 1. I used Dovecot's own MD5 routines in my implementation because I know how they

Hi, all. At home, I have a mailbox where mbox is the default (for inbox and some smaller mailboxes) and all my lists are in a Maildir format. I'm building a mailstore server at work where I want to use Maildir as the default mailstore, but I want to keep mbox on the side to aid in archiving messages. My configs are as follows for mail location and namespaces: Home: mail_location =

Hello all, I have two matrices, pop and pop2, each the same number of rows and columns that I want to compare for equality. I am concerned about efficiency in this operation. I've tried a few things without success so far. Doing something simple like: if (pop==pop2) { cat('equal') } else { cat('NOT equal') } results in the warning: 1: In if (pop == pop2) { : the

I am trying to use dovecot. I've got a GFS2 shared volume on two servers with dovecot running on both. On one server at a time, it works. The test I am trying is to attach two mail programs (MUA) via IMAPS (Thunderbird and Evolution as it happens). I've attached one mail program to each IMAPS server. I am trying to move emails around in one program (from folder to folder), and then

I'm running beta7 on two machines, with maildir on NFS. I have lockd running on all machines. I've found that Dovecot is highly unstable with NFS when accessing a mailbox on more than one machine at the same time. Both dovecot machines have: mmap_disable = yes lock_method = fcntl NFS is version 3, exported from a third linux machine. All machines are running 2.6.9 kernel. Any ideas

Hi, we've found a weird bug (?) in Dovecot 1.1.11. Since day and age we've been running dovecot for our student mailserver, getting the location of the mailbox from a LDAP directory. We allow login and LDA with both full mail address and an internal username, so the mailbox directory is based on a LDAP attribute user_attrs =

Hi, yesterday I updated my second server from Debian Squeeze to Debian Wheezy. Since todaay I get the followinig errors in my logs: Error-Log: ...

Hi, all. I have been playing with the notion of migrating some of my folders to maildir because it's a lot easier to manage that way from a reader standpoint. The big question I have is how do I maintain message ordering in each folder? When I use a mail program to do the migration from mbox to maildir, selecting "order received ascending", it works nicely, but one very small

Hi, We're using dovecot to provide pop3 for a number of mailboxes. The setup is pretty simple: Each user / domain has a mailstore in /data/mailstore/<domain>/<user>/Maildir (backed by NFS). Passwords are in simple passwd-file format in the top level domain directory eg: # cat /data/mailstore/foo.com/.passwd user:{plain}password The passdb setup looks like this. passdb {

Having > 10 TByte mailstore filesystem-checks takes too much time. At the moment we have four different partitions, but I don't like to set symlinks or LDAP-flags to sort customers and their domains to there individual mount-point. I'd like to work with mdbox:/mail/%d/%n to calculate the path automatically. How do you handle >> 10 TB mailstore? I'm very interested in the

Greetings - I've just discovered an oddity I didn't know I had... We have two NetApp filers: one serves people's home directories; the other their message store and control files filestores. At the moment the first of the two filers is not accessible to my Dovecot system and I assumed all would be well because, as far as I knew, I wasn't using it at all. However in

Hi All, I am synchronizing a few hundred dovecot mailboxes with a perl script via a crontab. ? It works for a while (ie exit status=0)? but the rest then start failing with exit code 19200.?? I tried redirecting STDERR but showed nothing.? I suspect the cron job is hitting some sort of resource limit?? If I run the perl script from the command line it appears to dsync all the accounts OK.?? The

Dear R-users, I have 3 plant populations (fixed). Within each population there is the same number of “families” (random) – the seed progeny of the same plant. These families were exposed to 2 treatments (fixed) and their response was measured (mean values for 25 seedlings per family per treatment are presented in data table). I would like to know if there is a significant difference in the

Hi! Have been using Fedora as my dovecot server for some time and am struggling with systemd at every update. Fedora insists on setting ProtectSystem=full in both dovecot.service and postfix.service at every update of the packages. This makes my mailstore which is in /usr/local/var/mail Read-only. And this makes the incoming emails delivered through dovecot-lda disappear into /dev/null until I

Greetings - [SIGH: I hit the "Send" button instead of "Attach". Here's Take 2...] Whilst playing with getting quotas from NFS-mounted filestores I've just discovered a slight problem with src/lib/mountpoint.c I had things working on a Solaris 10 test machine which had the mailstore mounted 'normally' using an entry in /etc/vfstab. However when I changed
