I've created a patch that adds a feature that is helpful to my setup. If 'parent_dir_umask' is set in the configuration file, any missing directories in the home directory path are created. The home directory itself is created according to the 'umask' setting, 'parent_dir_umask' is only used for intermediate directories that might need creating. This is useful to me,

The following is a patch I've been working on to support a "ChrootUser" option in the sshd_config file. I was looking for a way to offer sftp access and at the same time restict interactive shell access. This patch is a necessary first step (IMO). It applies clean with 'patch -l'. Also attached is a shell script that helps to build a chrooted home dir on a RedHat 7.2

?Is there any way to make dovecot to take the passwords from a file with a shadow password format? I've tried with the passwd-file auth plugin, but it complains that users have uid=0 Thanks in advance, Jaime Medrano

Dovecot seems to manage \Recent messages in a weird way. When a STATUS command is performed in a mailbox, then the \Recent flag of its messages disappear and latter STATUS commands report that there are no recent messagges. I don't know exactly the behavior of the RFC. But other imap servers (UW-imapd, Netscape Messenger...) report the same number of recent messages when two STATUS commands

Dear Timo, What do you think of this? Fyi, I've been getting the same thing lately and I'm wondering if gnutls is to blame? (i've had inexlicable SIGSEGVs in other apps before due to it.) Tomorrow I'll try with openssl but I was wondering if you had any other ideas? -- Jaldhar H. Vyas <jaldhar at debian.org> La Salle Debain - http://www.braincells.com/debian/

Hi, I'm currently using SER, and the voicemail system there is not stable, and is lacking IVR. I'm wondering if I could use asterisk as a voicemail system only, where calls will get redirected by ser to asterisk and users will be able to leave a message. Is this setup workable, and have anybody done that ? Thanks. Samy.

I''ve commited code for win32-etc 0.2.2, which adds the configure_user and configure_group methods. Testing appreciated. On my home system, I can''t get configure_user to work, but I haven''t any real idea why it fails. The configure_group method seems to work fine, however.

Why does dovecot mount the user home directory whenever the user checks his email (either pop or imap)? Is there a way to disable this? I have indicated in the default_mail_env = mbox:/home/%u/:INBOX=/mail/%u:INDEX=MEMORY. The users are in ldap. Windows users' home is in /home/%u so this is ok but unix users' home are in their local computers and are mounted (via automount) at

Since the latest Firefox update to 45.7.0 on my CentOS 6.8 system, I can no longer install add-ons/extensions. Things LOOK like they're working but the extensions don't get stored in my normal area and they don't appear in my Add-Ons menu. Is anyone else having this issue? It has been a while since I added any new extensions so I can't say WHEN exactly this problem happened
