Hi ! I have dovecot working on a SUSE 9.0 machine. Everything works fine. When I boot, I get this message: snip............. Dovecot starting up Login process died too early-shutting down snap........... rcdovecot status : unused a rcdovecot start starts dovecot. What can I do to start dovecot when I boot up ? Adrian Roye

Thank you very much for the rpm.... it works great on SuSE 9. I still don't understand how you compiled it to work!!!

If not, I'll have to fix it. timo it wasnt in earlier versions. but for 0.99.10.4 it reports the missing ssl cert to the stderr

Again I am asking for some help to compile and configure dovecot on SuSE 9. I have configured and compiled it as per the instructions and no errors or problems. When I try to run dovecot from the command line it does not complain or give me any errors. The daemon starts and dies almost immediately. Do I need to compile differently? What can I do to see what is the problem. I was asked to run

Hello, I have dovecot q1.0-0_22.rc7 up and running on a server: I can read email from squirrelmail just fine. When I try to download email with fetchmail, however, I get the result below. Why is that happening? In dovecot.conf I have: protocols = imap imaps pop3, so why should pop3 or imap fail? Where should I look? (I'll fix the certificates problem after I've managed to get in

Hello everyone, I'm setting up a fetchmail command to run every five minutes so I can get email from another POP3 account. The fetchmail package was installed via yum. I can execute the command manually on the command line. But I'm having trouble when it's run from cron. I have noticed that commands run via cron and execute via /bin/sh, so I tried to run the fetchmail command

I'm using fetchmail to grab mail for multiple accounts from an external IMAP server and drop it into local mailboxes via SMTP. It polls the remote server every two minutes. Can Dovecot replace this functionality more elegantly, using IDLE to avoid the polling necessary with fetchmail? I'd like to designate that mail for specific accounts on the external server be moved to specific

whats the recommended way to share a user auth info between dovecot and postfix? sasldb seems like it could work but nobody really seems to like using the giant mass that is sasl. i also cant find any information on actually getting dovecot to use sasl past the configure options. i looked at timo's patch for postfix to use dovecot-auth but it doesnt apply correctly on the 2.1 branch.

Hi, i havent yet any problems with dovecat but in my dovecot log i get the following warning, does anybody know what its wrong. imap-login: Aug 23 22:14:47 Warning: SSL_read() syscall failed: Connection reset by peer [192.168.1.139] imap-login: Aug 23 22:14:48 Info: Login: info at domain1.com [192.168.1.139] -th

Hi all, Can someone send me or tell me where I can find an init script for dovecot? Thanks.

hello, I know this is a question that has probably been answered before but I have searched for the answer and am yet to find it. I am running dovecot under fedora core 2 and cannot figure out where I set it so that users can create nested folders. At the moment they can only create one subfolder in most mail clients. however if using squirrelmail they can create nested folders but the folder

Hi, I was compiling the source rpm but had a problem. rpm -bb dovecot-xxx.spec The process stoped and showed: File must begin with "/": %{_initrddir}/dovecot -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I've Looked over the list of Auth methods that dovecot can use But i didn't see a option for a custom auth option. Would it be possible to add in a way for dovecot to call a script to check a users login info. have it able to retun the the homedir,gid/uid, and weather or not the password matched. -- Chris L.

Hi, I have a question about the raw logging feature. As I understand the documentation it is meant for traffic measuring. But it seems to be more targeted at developers. Is there a way for measuring the traffic for the end user? If not with raw loggin in another way?

Hi, I have dovecot with Maildir installed and running. No problems. I use kmail on both desktop and laptop with cachedimap configuration. kmail is configured to look for new mail every two minutes. Now my question: When both maschines are running and kmail is started then two clients access the same Maildir on the server at the same time. Is this possible or can this corrupt the Maildir

Is it possible to install dovecot imap / pop3 with mysql authentication, with postfix as mta and with squirrelmail as webmail ? Is it reliable for production state ? I'm working with courier-imap but I don't like it. Hi, kak?.

I'm getting these over and over again in my dovecot [CVS] logs. I'm using PAM for authentication- something that worked a few weeks ago.

Hi, I have a small personal server here which I've managed to successfuly install the dovecot server onto. What i'm hoping to do is download POP3 mail from 1 or 2 accounts using the dovecot server so I'll be able to read all from the dovecot server... Is this possible? thanks! Eurig

Hello, I'm checking my way to migrate from Courier to Dovecot. Wiki says that "there's currently no easy way to migrate them [the keywords]". Frankly, I lack the information to check if some client is using keywords at all. More importantly, is it OK to assume that when SELECT INBOX returns no \* in OK [PERMANENTFLAGS ...] that the IMAP server does not allow keywords at

Hi guys, Thanks for the great product. We've used dovecot for ages as our internal mail server and it works great! I've recently started using fetchmail 6.3.9 (with IDLE enabled) to download mail from our ISP (Pair networks). The ISP is running Dovecot 1.1.16. I am unable to get the info about the dovecot config at this time. The IDLE support in fetchmail allows us to deliver

I?ve configured the below cron job using webmin for downloading these mail 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * *
