but no luck.

Authentication woes - Couldn't drop privileges: Mail access not allowed for root
I'm currently trying to set up a Dovecot 2.0.0 server for backup
purposes. There's an existing server which I successfully migrated to
Dovecot 2.0.0, and it uses LDAP for authentication. For the backup
server, which will not be exposed to users, I tried both PAM and PASSWD
authentication, but all I are syslog entries like these:
dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<foo>,

Help!
HELP!
I have installed sendmail, dovecot, and squirrel mail. The squirrel
mail portion of it works just fine, but I would like to have Mozilla
Thunderbird as a client. Whenever I try and connect to the server it
says "Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account."
We do have an MX record in DNS pointing to our server. We are using
Ubuntu 12.0.4.1, and have

Squirrelmail
I have an urgent (isn't it always the way!) need to set up webmail for one of our users.
I intalled Squirrelmail, added /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf and
etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf/squirrel.conf to my webserver config (which
is not RH stock) and ran the squirrelmail conf.pl
I know nothing at all about php, so am having a hell of a time diagnosing
the errors, and the squirrelmail.org site knows

Sieve autoreply woes on test setup
Hi,
I have been testing sieve in my setup with qmail-ldap and deliver on a LAN
with an artificial domain name. Everything seems to be working as expected,
except in cases when autoreplies (vacation, reject messages) need to be
tested.
The domain name is vmint, and dawnone is the hostname on which mail server
is setup, so a users have address like cot at vmint, cute at vmint and dove at vmint

Supporting charsets
Hi there!
We are trying to use support for japanese language, but when composing in
squirrelmail or while resending either in squirrel or in Outlook, we do
not get the right symbols.
The server and client PCs have all the required software. Indeed, we
receive japanese written messages and can display them well. The problem
arises when we resend or compose a message. In the squirrel configuration,

Squirrel 1.4.8-8.el3.centos.1
Hi,
Last tuesday I upgraded squirrelmail on two centos-3 mailservers.
squirrelmail-1.4.8-8.el3.centos.1, 2.4.21-58.ELsmp, CentOS release 3.9,
httpd 2.0.46
Since then I have some users who have problems with their sessions.
They are logout out every now and them, and some sent mails have another
user address in the From header. It looks like squirrel is mixing up
sessions? Those users have used

ANNOTATE plugin? Squirrel uses it for EXPIRATION information
Hi,
it seems that Squirrel mail uses Mailbox annotations for storing Expire
times on the Server. It's an Cyrus server currently. (I've no clue how
cyrexpire is able to read it's information from the annotiations)
Does dovecot support some similiar mechanism? Or - does anybody know
anything about how it's supposed to work on Cyrus and how it can be
emulated/simulated with dovecot?

[PATCH] drop root privileges on solaris, request for testing
Hello all,
this patch allows master process to drop more root priveleges under
Solaris. My limited testing shows that code works, but I'm not sure
that defined privilege set is permissive enough for dovecot.
Unfortunately I have no root access to our Solaris servers to really
test it. So if someone is ready to test this patch please do it :)
Best regards.

All mail in mbox disappears when using Outlook
I thought I was imaging it but... I have a friend (honestly) that likes to
clear his inbox every month by copying older into a folder (e.g. June-2009).
Every month he complains that all the mail in the new folder has
disappeared. This has happened three times now, and he's sort-of-right. I
now believe it's a bug rather than him.
The setup is Dovecot 1.1.3 on FreeBSD 7.0 and the client is

Can't drop root group privileges
Hi all,
I need your insight. I've been testing Dovecot on an AIX 5.2
system. Compiled and running fine. We have some users on an
AIX 5.1 system, so I'm working on installing it there, so we
can do further testing.
I'm using Dovecot 1.0 RC15 with OpenSSL 9.0.7e, configured to use
port 10143 (imap) and 10993 (imaps). The error I'm seeing in the log is:
