Hi there. I understood that in Dovecot 1.0 it should be possible to mix the usage of mbox and maildir mailboxes. I just downloaded, built, and am testing dovecot-stable-20050304. I'm a bit confused as to the terms of namespaces (haven't read that part of the RFC yet), but this does not seem related. Anyway, when I try specifying: default_mail_env = ~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u On

Hi there. I am evaluating Dovecot as an IMAP server. I noticed on thing which irritates me. When a user saves a message to an IMAP folder with the Dovecot server, the envelope From line is changed to the address of that user, instead of keeping the From line of the original message. How can I have the original envelope From line preserved when saving messages? -- Tom -- Tom Alsberg -

Hi there... Having updated to 1.0.beta1, I for a while thought a bad bug with IDLE handling that caused new mail in INBOX not to appear when using Mozilla Thunderbird has been solved. Although I can not reproduce one kind of problem anymore, after a short while it again appears that one does not always see one's new mail with Thunderbird. I can not consistently reproduce the bug, but

Hi there... Two questions: (1) Is there an easy way to have Dovecot recognize subdirectories that do not begin with a dot as sub-hierarchies? (2) Is there a way to have the root folder map to a certain other mbox/maildir? I want a setup like this: / -> $HOME/mbox /INBOX -> /var/spool/<username> /folder -> $HOME/mail/folder /folder/foo -> $HOME/mail/folder/foo

Hi there. Perhaps this is answered somewhere, but a short search through the mailing list and Wiki yielded nothing. We have spam filtering set up for all users, with all messages over some spam threshold going to a separate mbox. There is one directory containing the spam mboxes of all users (call it "/var/spool/spam", right now), with the spam box of a user residing in

As promised, here it is finally. v1.0 is getting nearer and I want people to start looking at Dovecot's sources. Getting some more help with development would be nice, but I'd also like to hear if there are any hidden bugs in the code. So, one week from now I'll start offering 1000 EUR for the first person to point out a remotely exploitable security hole in Dovecot. See

Is it possible to have some folders be mbox and some be maildir format? Why you might ask? Sometime for diagnostics I have the Exim MTA archive certain messages in MBOX format and then I want to copy them into an imao folder to look at them with Thunderbird. When I used MBOX all I had to do was copy the file into a folder and it worked. So what I'd like to do is have a folder with a

Timo, Regarding: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2005-January/006144.html I would like an estimate of where you are on the path to a released (dovecot-1.0). I have read your statement regarding the -stable series and am wondering when we see the first feature complete -beta of v1.0? Thank for your hard efforts. I have been a happy customer for about a year. Ray

Hi, I'm migrating accounts from one server with dovecot mbox and pam nss-ldap authentication to a new server with dovecot maildir and mysql auth (no posix accounts). My problem is the pop3 uidl format on the two servers are different, even though I'm using pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv in both configs, I'm always re-downloading left messages on my test runs. Is there a way I could

http://dovecot.org/test/ Hopefully better release than last one. Fixes several problems test66 had and also some older problems reported in this list. It also contains a pretty large mbox code cleanup, fixing several problems (especially related to X-IMAP/X-IMAPbase headers) and making it a bit faster. Maybe I'll backport it to 1.0-stable too when it looks like it's stable.. BTW. mbox

Hello, I want to use dovecot as imap server with mbox storage format (described at [1]) but I also want to access (and modify!) those mbox files which are stored on server (and used by dovecot). What is correct way to read those mboxes? From wiki page [1] I read that I should ignore first message in mbox (which contains X-IMAPbase header) and mbox file is in mboxcl2 format. And what is

In Dovecot 0.99, I recall somewhere I read it was possible for INBOX to be both a Maildir and an mbox in the same configuration (either automatically detected, or depending on the existence in a different location). Perhaps I was wrong, I'm not sure. Any way, I now became interested in this sort of setup: Most users have their spool an mbox in /var/mail/<username>, and then they

TESTED AND RUNNING, MIGRATING from MBOX to MAILDIR, PRESERVE UID and OUTLOOK sees the email as downloaded. I hope this helps a lot of people out there. Feel free to post this somewhere else too. By: Horn Wijaya (hwijaya at nodens.biz) 8th May 2008 I have been searching for weeks for a foolproof method to migrate all my users mbox to maildir/dovecot without having the pain of downloading

Just a note, I backported some larger mbox changes from 1.0-test67. Hopefully works, but if you're going to try it test it well first :) Should fix some issues related to X-IMAP/X-IMAPbase header handling and maybe some other mbox related problems as well. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Hi Dovecot: 2.2.19.rc2 OS: CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 (Core) FS: XFS Problem: Dovecot it does not include line breaks in the letter. Bug or feautre?

Hi Timo. I've checked out the current CVS version and tested it. There seems to be a problem when dovecot accesses mailboxes for the first time: I have a mailbox with 4 mails, and no special IMAP headers. (no X-IMAPBase, X-UID etc.) and it's in mbox format. I log in, SELECT the folder and do FETCH 2 BODY[] and receive only a snipplet of the mail from somewhere in the middle of it.

http://dovecot.org/rc/ Thought I'd still make one 0.99.10.x release now that mbox corruption problems are (hopefully) fixed. Please test, if no problems are found this will be the final 0.99.10.5. Changes since .4: + MySQL authentication, patch by Matthew Reimer - mbox: APPEND reversed given \Draft and \Deleted flags - mbox: "LF not found" errors happened sometimes when

Hi all, Keep getting these messages: Jul 18 09:48:47 orxon dovecot: POP3(d2525): mbox sync: UID inserted in the middle of mailbox /var/mail/d2525 (109 > 3) Jul 18 09:48:47 orxon dovecot: POP3(d2525): X-IMAPbase uid-last unexpectedly points outside mbox file /var/mail/d2525 For a bunch of users. Any ideas?

Hi. For mbox, http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/mbox#Dovecot.27s_Metadata lists a numer of mail headers: - X-IMAPbase - X-IMAP - X-UID - Status - X-Status - X-Keywords - Content-Length that are treated specially by dovecot. It also suggests, that these should be stripped by the LDA (I guess in order that someone sending you such mail cannot set the status or keywords, or even "attack
