Dear friends, My intention is to migrate from Courier-Imap Dovecot 4.4.1 to 1.1.16, the problem is that I've noticed that when creating folders using the Courier does not create the file courierimapsubscribed therefore I doubt if this will bring me problems trying to perform the migration script by courier-dovecot-migrate.pl drwx------ 8 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 Jun 18 16:38 . drwx------

Hi all. I am currently gathering information about migration of Maildir/ structures from Courier to Dovecot. What do you think about http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier ? For each courier Maildir account I want to use http://www.dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl to produce dovecot-uidlist file mv courierimapsubscribed subscriptions sed sed -i 's/INBOX\.//' subscriptions

Hi, About a week ago I upgraded our reasonably heavily loaded mail servers from a pretty recent courier version to dovecot-1.1rc10. IMAP performance on dovecot is amazing, however POP3 performance is worse than courier :-( I have uploaded some munin graphs taken today to http://linweb.atlas.pipex.net/dovecot/; the dovecot server is handling about 2000 pop logins/sec and 300 imap sessions (but

Hi, I'm migrating from Courier-Imap to Dovecot-Imapd and I have some problems.. I don't want to change the IMAP folders, so I wish to have Dovecot's compatibility with Courier's IMAP folders. In the Dovecot configuration I configured this: namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes } Dovecot correctly shows me the INBOX folder, but doesn't show me the

Hi, I'm testing migration from courier to courier-0.57.0 to dovecot-imap-1.1.12 on a debian/sid box. When running the migration script, non of the active users' "courierimapsubscribed" and "courierimapuiddb" files seem to be detected: ZENON:~# ./courier-dovecot-migrate.pl --to-dovecot --recursive /home Testing conversion to Dovecot format Finding maildirs under

Hello Gang, I am new to dovecot and the only reason (so far) I would like to use dovecot, and in production with 12k+ users, is the fact that it's supposed to be faster and less of a resource hog. Now, sometimes I am really good at reading the documentations but it sometimes happens that one overlooks something. I did read the migration notes three times! My users are in /etc/passwd and I

hi list, I've just registered to the list, so please be tolerant ;) I'm currently in the process of planning the migration from courier to dovecot as POP/IMAP-Server. I'm migration from Courier 0.58 (Debian-Etch-packages) to Dovecot 1.1.13 (Debian Lenny Backport). The conversion of the Mailbox from Courier to Dovecot will be done with "courier-dovecot-migrate.pl"-script[1],

OK, I am running (for many years now) an existing courier_imap maildir ++ setup with exim as the MTA. Has been fine. I have my own custom ldap schema for user account definition and authorization. I installed dovecot 1.0 beta 7 as a test and have it listening on a different port. I would like, if possible, to set things up so that a user could use either dovecot or courier. Having to

I have an courier IMAP server running. To get sib dirs working I had to rename them all to begin with a period ".". e.g Maildir Maildir/{cur,new,tmp} Maildir/.account1/{cur,new,tmp} Maildir/.account2/{cur,new,tmp} Maildir/.account3/{cur,new,tmp} etc If I uninstall Courier and install dovecot, will these "period" dirs be seen by default? I am fairly new to this and

Hello, I am trying to migrate our configuration that use Courier-imap to dovecot, appart some users that have some issues with pop and leave messages on servers that retreive all mails into their mailboes... but this is ok for me :).. One problem that it seems that Sent / Drafts and Trash folder are not automaticaly added as subscribed folder... I really dunno about IMAP rfc or standard, I

I've tested this only with a test user. http://dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier # Migrate Courier IMAP (any version) and Courier POP3 (v0.43+) to Dovecot v1.0 # by Timo Sirainen.

Let me start off by saying the initial cause was *not* a Dovecot bug. :) If you have the default namespace "INBOX." (Courier emulation mode from the Wiki) and an actual folder in your ~/Maildir/ with INBOX in the name (~/Maildir/.INBOX.Miami), then Dovecot presents them both to the client as the real Inbox in Thunderbird: Account Inbox (3) Drafts Sent INBOX (3)

Hi, I have a redhat server running courier-imap + squirrelmail webmail. I am migrating to dovecot... the problem is - the existing sub-folders are all disappear from the folder list. What can I do to fix this problem? Thanks, Jerry Chiu

Hi, Currently we support Courier POP and IMAP for all our users (users can use IMAP as well as POP at the same time). We are thinking about moving to Dovecot; but first moving away from Courier IMAP to Dovecot IMAP (and maybe later also move to Dovecot POP). This would create a mixed environment; after some research I have the following questions. To not break POP3 Courier and still be

Hi there, After being extremely impressed from implementing it in some customer installations, I've decided to migrate our mail infrastructure to dovecot. Being able to have /bin/checkpassword support across the board for pop, imap, and smtp authentication, as well as being able to ditch stunnel for the SSL layer...where were you in 2001?!? :) I have two concerns, the first is about the

After having fought an issue with Courier-imap on FC3 for a week (that is still unresolved), I decided to try Dovecot instead. So far, fingers crossed, the issue has not re-occured. Migrating from courier-imap/sqwebmail to Dovecot/Squirrelmail was reasonably painless but I now have an problem. Is there a utility available to cleanup/repair the maildir tree for each user ? As part of the

Hi all, I am migrating a maildir Courier-IMAP installation to Dovecot. Almost everything seems to work well, but I still have problems accessing subfolders. First let's see what I have done. I used the courier-dovecot-migrate.pl script suggested in http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier to convert mailboxes from Courier to Dovecot. No problems here. My dovecot.conf contains this: (...)

I've been using Dovecot in some fresh installs lately and have found it fairly easy to configure. However I'm starting on a migration that involves moving from some very old software (ancient vpopmail, qmail and Courier). On the Courier front, I've reviewed the migration page in the wiki, and it looks like the main concerns are just matching the namespace and then using the migration

mail_location setting has started becoming a bit bloaty. I'm not actually even sure why I've kept adding more parameters to it rather than just adding new settings. It's also caused confusion, because people try things like: mail_location = mbox:/var/mail/%u mail_location = mbox:INBOX=/var/mail/%u Although the first one has been giving ok enough error message for a long time now and
