Hi all, I want to start dovecot through DJBs Daemontools-supervise, is there a configuration option that lets dovecot stay in foreground? best regards, Jens

I was just thinking how they could be easily supported. This would work, right? : imap stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login imaps stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login --ssl imap-login would try to connect to master process using some named socket. If it couldn't, it would create the master process itself. Master

Hello, First time poster to this list, please be kind. I am having difficulties trying to get the current stable version of horde's imp webmail to work correctly using dovecot 1.0rc15. I am using a pre-release version of SME Server 8 which runs on top of CentOS 5. I have also tried using the 1.0 release of dovecot as well. What is happenning is that when I login to imp, I don't

Hi everyone, Our company has decided to make a fake POP3 (and possibly IMAP) server, which accepts any user name and password combination and shows there are no new messages. This is for the purpose that when our mail cluster passes out, we can redirect our clients to this server while we fix our mail system. This way we can prevent our users from getting errors. We are using the latest

hi, what do you tyhink about it? especially the faq comment about dovecot? http://www.bincimap.andreas.hanssen.name/ -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"

Browsing in the 2003-September archives, I found out how to start dovecot from inetd (using imap-login instead of imap). Still I've got a few problems. I prefer not using inetd, but that seams impossible (see my 1st email). And telnetting to port 143 results in an immediate connection close. Hmmm, I'll continue exploring the archives. Regards Evert

Hello, I was wondering about the feasibility of including a startup script for icecast for redhat/fedora installs? I've had to do an rpm install on an fc4 box, and a source install, rpms couldn't be found for an rh9 machine, yah i know that's old.

Hey, I'm trying to sort out how to make dovecot replace uw-imap cleanly. But I have the following problems/questions: 1. Why is mbox support limited to user-owned directories? 2. Would it be possible to have dovecot target a different place than ~user/mail by default, specfically some place like /var/path/to/maildirs/userdir/ I'd like to move all my mail storage out of user homedirs and
