Hi dovecot-0.99.11-1.FC3.4.i386.rpm on FC3 when i create a user account with pop3 email i find that if i don't send and email to the account (so that sendmail creates the file under /var/spool/mail/testuser) where "testuser" is the users username.

Hi colleagues, I am trying to setup dovecot and have a strange problem. I configured it to: #dovecot -n|grep ^mail mail_gid = mail mail_location = mbox:/var/spool/mail/%d/mailboxes/%n:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%d/%n mail_uid = mail And also setup exim4 to use it. I sent a test message and observe a mailbox file /var/spool/mail/domain/user, containing this message. But when I try to access

Good morning list, first of all: dovecot works really great, the performance is overwhelming (especially compared to courier), the configuration flexible as hell, it is good documented - I love this software. But as things get complicated, I think I need some additional help. I'm using dovecot to replace the currently used courier-mailserver in a shared hosting environment based on

Hi, is there a way to set multiple selinux attributes to files/directories? I would like to share /var/spool/cups-pdf/SPOOL/, which has 'system_u:object_r:print_spool_t:s0' and would also need 'system_u:object_r:samba_share_t:s0'. The point is that there will be files accumulating that only need to be deleted, and there might be files users may actually want access to. Sharing

Hi, jaldhar recommended dovecot to me - http://www.askbjoernhansen.com/archives/2003/04/07/000286.html ... and so far it seems much nicer than the other imapds. yay. I use the OS X Mail.app client. I tested it with a test account with no problems, but trying to use it with my usual mail folders (~1.3GB; 120MB in the inbox) it's not working at all. It seems like dovecot keeps copying the

Hi, I found some info messages below in /var/spool/mail/root. To reduce the size of that file, I'm wondering if there's a way to prevent those unimportant messages from entering /var/spool/mail/root.

I've just noticed that if you start a call by writing a file to /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing the cdr created on termination logs the call placed to the local extension - not to the destination in the PSTN. Hence there is no record of the PSTN number dialled. I guess most people want to log the outgoing portion not the local call leg? Anyone know of a setting that changes this? Iain

I'm getting the * logs in my emails /var/spool/mail/root (yes * is running as root) how can I change the settings? Using FC3.

For some reason i can't change the permissions on /var/spool/postfix/ dovecot.index.log from postfix to dovecot, or anything else. I changed all the files in /var/spool/postfix to be owner postfix so that postfix wouldn't complain about insufficient priviledges. I'm running MacOS X 10.4.7. I can change it all I want, but the owner and group changes do not 'stick' - they

I was wondering if somebody could tell me how I can tell dovecot (IMAP) to read users' mail boxes at /var/spool/mail/{1st char}/{2nd char}/username . For example: Mailbox for user 'mike' would be located at /var/spool/mail/m/i/mike 'karen' would be at /var/spool/mail/k/a/karen etc... Is this possible is version 1.1.6? Please advise. Thanks JB
