similar to: Set only INDEX path

Hello, I built a Fedora 4 sendmail server to replace our old one. I wanted to try the stock Dovecot popper (we currently use pop3d). I tried implementing Dovecot this morning and failed. All I want to use is the POP portion (no IMAP). From what I could find on the Internet, all I had to do is change dovecot.conf protocols line to read like this: protocols = pop3 Apparently, that wasn't

hi all, i've built dovecot: Sep 09 18:04:24 Info: Dovecot v1.0-test80 starting up on OSX 10.4.2. in addition to pgsql auth, which is working 4 me, i'd like to step-by-step verify simple passwd-file authentication/testing. unfortunately, i'm having a problem with the login process NOT FINDING the ".../cur" dir. here are the details .... my config includes: ...

i'm setting up for virtual_users w/ maildir. i have in my dovecot.conf: auth default { passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/dovecot/imapd.passwd } userdb static { args = static uid=300 gid=300 home=/var/dovecot/mail mail=maildir:/var/dovecot/mail/%d/%n/Maildir nice=10 } } default_mail_env = maildir:/var/dovecot/mail/%d/%n/Maildir:INDEX=/var/dovecot/indexes/%d/%n in

Hello all, I've a problem with maildir, pop3 and relocated indexes. My configuration is: default_mail_env = maildir:%h/Maildir:INDEX=/var/dovecot/index/% u:CONTROL=/var/dovecot/control/%u I created the "/var/dovecot/{index,control}/%u" directories, each one have rights 700 and the ownership is assigned to the user. When the pop clients connect, they fail with the error dovecot:

Forgive me if this gets submitted twice. I had issues signing up for the listserv but I think I'm strait now. Hi all, I just started working with Dovecot and I'd like to use it for my organization, but I've run into a little problem. So far I love it and it does what I need. One thing we need is to be able to write to multiple mailbox formats on a per user basis (mbox or

We have NFS-mounted user directories which cause significant problems with stale file handles: dovecot: IMAP(uid): fstat() failed with file /home/uid/mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.log: Stale NFS file handle (a) why can't it just close the file and re-open ? (b) is there a way to specify with the 'default_mail_env' (or in some other way) the location of **only** the indexes (and let

v0.99.5 2003-01-02 Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi> * This release includes a lot of code cleanups, especially related to security. Direct buffer modifying was replaced in several places with a new buffer API, which provides a safe way to do it. Code that looks unsafe contains @UNSAFE tag to make auditing easier. + Support for SORT extension. Originally I thought about not

Folks - My setup is that my mail is filed (by procmail) in ~/.mail/Maildir, an NFS filesystem. But I'm running Dovecot (1.0alpha5) on my local machine (as myself on port 2143), just to serve this mail to my browser (Thunderbird 1.0.2). The NFS data is on a netapp which seems to be creating .nfs files LIKE CRAZY. I expect these are the remnants of lock files, so I'm trying to move my

(This is releveant information to the one that Alex Moore just posted, but I'm not subscribed yet so I can't properly reply to that thread. Sorry for creating a new one.) I've got a crash in dovecot-imap when trying to list the inbox on a nonexistant directory. I'm not sure how it should be handled, but basically it's only happening when the directory in imap's MAIL

Hello Everyone, I am playing with the $subject matter using 1.0alpha4, and thanks to the archives, I lifted this one from Alexander Shikoff off and used it in my setup. auth default { mechanisms = plain user = root passdb pam { args = pop3 } passdb sql { args = /usr/local/dovecot/etc/dovecot-mysql.conf }

I'd like a separate feature for setting umask for index and cache files differently from email files. The reason is that I'm putting indexes in a separate location and I need group create rights in directories. Otherwise what happens is that the first user creates the directories, but the second user for the domain that has a different UID gets an error. default_mail_env =

Hi Using this line in dovecot.conf (ignore linewrap) default_mail_env = mbox:%h/IMAP/:INBOX=%h/.email:INDEX=/var/cache/dovecot/%n The INBOX indexes are being built correctly in /var/cache/dovecot, but all other indexes for folders are still being built in the user's home directory. I had it working once - but it seems fragile - almost as if the config parser is sensitive to context???

Hi, I'm having great difficulty pointing Dovecot to my MBox files. They are all in /var/spool/mail/username as textfiles.. not directories. So my guess was: default_mail_env = /var/spool/mail/%u Since %u is user. If the user is "server" I would expect it to go to /var/spool/mail/server exactly what I want. But it doesn't /var/spool/mail///home/server. If I create the

I now have default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=:/var/spool/mail/%u I now getting: Apr 26 15:55:32 jedrik imap(mclay): open() failed with mbox file : No such file or directory I tracked down where the error message is getting generated and added some more printing: In mbox-index.c I added: int mbox_set_syscall_error(struct mail_index *index, const char *function) { i_assert(function !=

Hi, I am trying to get sieve working with dovecot. Dovecot itself is working fine, and I have the following config: root at master:/var/log# dovecot --version 1.0.rc2 root at master:/var/log# dovecot -n # /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imap ssl_disable: yes disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable:

Today I upgraded to dovecot 1.0 rc1 (before I was using a 1.0 beta, as it had functions no one else had), the beta worked fairly well, no crashes, and the bugs were few and far between. I had a few issues with thunderbird 1.5, so I decided to upgrade. My problem is this, before, I had configured procmail to deliver SPAM to a subdirectory of the users home directory, (not mail/) and

Hi! I need set to dovecot non standart mbox path. For example, /var/service/mail/%u. How I can do it? I see default_mail_env parameter, but I don't undestend how it used. Thanks!
