I installed it: rpm -ivh nameOfthatrpm & when i ran #service dovecot start ,I recieved following lines: Starting IMAP daemon (dovecot): Fatal: Can't use SSL certificate /usr/share/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem: No such file or directory

Hi , I recently installed Fedora Core 1. Installed postfix on it and that is running fine. I am trying to get dovecot to run and I have changed only the following line from the default dovecot.conf : imap_listen = 127.0.0.1 since I'd like to install squirrelmail later on. Now when I try to start dovecot I get "Starting Dovecot Imap: Fatal: Can't resolve address

Hi everybody.

I have read and read the dovecot docs on maildir folders and think that this is what I want. However, the MUA programs that I use, SylpheedClaws, Evolution, Mozilla seem to react differently to how I setup the folders. Is there a good FAQ on this subject somewhere? I think that I want to setup a virtual domain and am looking for documents. Alex

Hello, I'm in the process to choose between Courier and Dovecot. I would like to know if it's possible to configure Dovecot in order to use multiple user database (e.g. ldap+passwd) in order to have both virtual user authenticated by LDAP and system user authenticated by system password and with their own home directory. Another question: at http://dovecot.org/doc/dovecot-example.conf

Hi all! I have a strange problem with Dovecot - deleted messages never seem to get deleted on the server! Deleted messages just seem to get a 'T' at the end of them on the server and remain there, so user mail boxes continue to grow to incredible sizes. Is this a setting I must change somewhere? Must I delete these files manually? Leslie

Sorry if this question has been asked before I looked through some of the archives before posting this. I am considering using dovecot on a small 35 user enviorment (only around 6 gigs of email) that will be primarly be used with squirrelmail for the MUA. I have been using dovecot for a few weeks now and really like it. It is a big improvement over uw-imap thats for sure. I was wondering how many

Hi, I have tried to use the same Maildir dovecot uses with another program and encountered the problem that Dovecot seems to move files from new to cur in maildir-sync.c::maildir_scan_dir without adding an info part. On the page http://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html is written that mails have to be renamed to uniq:info when moved to the cur directory. Could this be a bug in dovecot? --

Hi! I'm currently running RH 9 with postfix, uw-imap and MailScanner. I want to install Fedora Core 2 (when it comes out next week) with postfix, dovecot and amavisd. I'm unhappy with the problems I'm having with MailScanner, with the difficulty I've had with authentication as I am currently configured, and want to move to Maildir instead of mbox. That being said, is dovecot

Hi, We are thinking of converting to Dovecot to lighten our I/O load. I have done some performace tests comparing UW-IMAP to Dovecot when using mbox format if anyone is interested. They primarily examine the I/O improvements that can be gained from using Dovecot over UW when staying with mbox format: http://whizzo.uoregon.edu/public/src/mailperf/results.html I had too much cached for this set

Hi, I'm testing/debuging the migration from mbox to maildir in a mailserver running Dovecot 1.0alpha5. I migrated all 472715 emails(in a test server) and later noted that dovecot could not get the same flags/status of the emails as in the mbox. I was using perfect_maildir.pl and I think its not dovecot fault. Seems to me that perfect_maildir.pl convert the emails in a way that dovecot could

I am running dovecot 0.99. Everything works great; however, now I am looking at several different tools to convert mbox to Maildir. It seems the tools, mb2md.pl, perfect_maildir.pl, and others all do what they claim; however, when the messages are converted and they are stored in Maildir/cur, the email clients download these messages as new. This typically wouldn't be a problem;

Hi, When I built my theora project, I've this error LINK : warning LNK4098: defaultlib "LIBCMTD" conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library LIBCD.lib(crt0.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _main Debug/theora.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals Error executing link.exe. <p>How can I solve this problem ?

Hi List, what do you think is the best way to migrate (to a new maschine) round about 30000 mboxes (Qpopper) with an amount of 43Gigs data, to maildir format (Dovecot). I think there are two ways: 1. - stop services (smtp and pop3) on the old maschine - copy the mboxes to the new maschine - run a conversion script (for excample: "Perfect_maildir" http://perfectmaildir.home-dn.net/)

Hello, Seems that file ressource gets a new idea of what to be given. I have the following recipe : class resolvconf { file { "/etc/resolv.conf": owner => root, group => wheel, mode => 644, source => "puppet:///puppet/dist/resolv.conf",

Is there some way that message uids can be preserved when converting uw-pop3 mbox mail to dovecot maildir format? We've tried perfect_maildir, mb2md and the convert-tool that comes with dovecot but so far have been unable to preserve the message uids, which for example go from 44333a8500000003 before the conversion to 4434621500000003 afterwards. The quantity of mailboxes involved means

Hi there, I am trying to move from lmtpd (lmtpd.sf.net) to dovecot sieve. One thing used by some of powerusers are archiving mail automatically with autocreated folders based on year + month. Is there any good way to make that with sieve... One example require "fileinto"; if address :is ["From", "To"] "dovecot at dovecot.org" { fileinto
