similar to: maildir and /var/spool/mail/$USER

At one point I was just using what was under ~/mail now I have: ~/mail ~/mail/fedora ~/mail/trash ~/mail/mplayer ~/mail/yahoo ~/mail/Scott ~/mail/.imap/fedora ~/mail/.imap/fedora/.imap.index ~/mail/.imap/fedora/.imap.index.tree ~/mail/.imap/trash ~/mail/.imap/trash/.imap.index ~/mail/.imap/mplayer ~/mail/.imap/mplayer/.imap.index ~/mail/.imap/yahoo ~/mail/.imap/yahoo/.imap.index

All, Not sure what to do next. Have imap working in that I can see messages in inbox. When I create a folder it won't create one. Looking at maillog shows that I don't have rights to folder /var/spool/mail/.sent or whatever folder I am trying to create. I have procmailrc and dovecot.conf point to /home/Maildir but for some reason something is tied to /var/spool/mail. Of course I am

Hi. I'm currently setting up dovecot to work with my server. My inboxes from postfix are stored in /usr/var/spool/mail/ and then the username, so for me that would be / usr/var/spool/mail/viktor my homedirectory is /usr/home/glemme/homes/viktor/ so from what i can understand. My settings should be: default_mail_env = mbox:%h/Mail:INBOX:/usr/var/spool/mail/%u But guess what, I am probably

Hello I am migrate FC1 to FC2, in FC1 i use ipop3d, but in the migration to FC2 this programa is obsolete, i decide migrate to dovecot, but i have problems with the old mail i have the mail stored into /var/spool/mail/USER and this error appears with examine the mail with Oulook Express: Jun 6 23:24:10 dakota pop3(dakota): open(/var/spool/mail/dakota.lock) failed: Permission denied Jun 6

I appreciate the responses to my problem on v0.99.14. Thank you all. We have built a new server running version 1.0-0_15.beta9.el4. The mail delivery agent is sendmail. We seem to have

Dovecot is installed on the hosted FC1 server I have, it was working fine until yesterday when they had to bounce the server. I can login fine from Outlook or connect telnet <hostname> 110. But even though I can see sendmail has received mail into my %h/.maildir (via webmail's user mail facility) when I log into dovecot via Outlook it does not retrieve any of it. I tried from W2K

I am a little confused and maybe if I figure this out I will be able to get this to work. I am now able to get my pop3 working but not imap. My inbox is in /var/spool/mail/%u and my mail directory is /home/%u/mail and then all the 'folders' are there which are actually files. Is that maildir or mbox? Which do I have to use for dovecot? Or can I use whichever I choose. I would

I've just tried out Dovecot LDA. The reason I didn't want to use it before was that I found it unnecessary together with Exim, plus I wanted to use Exim's filtering. But now I wanted to see if can notice any improvement when the indexes are updated on delivery, and I saw that it's possible to use Exim filters and pass the resulting folder with -m. Now, correct me if I'm

I am trying to set up dovecot under linux. (RH9 if it matters). I'm having trouble having it find the mail that is already delivered. What I would like is that mail is delivered by fetch mail to /var/spool/mail/mclay (that me) then have dovecot find it. I'm sure that I have not set the dovecot.conf file correctly. The documentation is unclear as to what "mbox" is and

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

(repost gmane message as list member) I need some help with Dovecot-1.0rc2 on Gentoo Linux. My test harness is one Thunderbird-1.5.0.4 client, storage using legacy mbox directories ported over from an old UW-IMAP/sendmail combo running on RHL 8. Config is intended to be passwd/pam, plaintext login allowed (until I migrate everyone to ssl). After this is working, postfix and dspam are to be

Hi all, Does anyone know how to configure dovecot to read /var/spool/mail as the inbox using maildir format? Thanks in advance, Ben Halicki

Hi I'm trying to figure out how to set default_mail_env to support such config: INBOX is in '/var/mail/%u/' (note last slash at the end, %u is an folder with new/tmp/cur subdirs - standard maildir structure). Other imap folders are stored as files (in mbox format) in direcotry '%h/Mail/'. Please advise.

Hi I wish to install asterisk 1.2 (the latest tar.gz from the site ....not the CVS version) on an HP box with a TE110P (single port E1/T1) My question is which OS would be preferred in this configuration Fedora Core 1 or Fedora Core 3, and are there any install guides out there that are recent enough for asterisk 1.2 I am also open to suggestions for other Operating Systems if any of you feel

Hi there Just a quick question. I have been playing around with asterisk CVS-1.0.02 on fedora core 1 (2.4 kernel) and I would like to have a look at asterisk v 1.0.6 but am still a little uncertain which linux kernel is best to run on ?, can I use Fedora Core 3 (is it the preferred kernel) or should I stick with FC1 Ps - the only additional hardware in the box will be a digium single port E1

We are experiencing an odd problem when using the combination of Quicken 2002, Fedora core 3, and Wine version 20050111 for fedora core 1. When we open the "Split Transaction Window", the window appears to go into an event loop. We are able to eventually break the loop by clicking on the drop down window menu. Sometimes it will break out with the window correctly sized, sometimes it

I've just set up a new box with FC1+updates and the latest Stable Asterisk from CVS. Asterisk is started with the default safe_asterisk script with a console on TTY9. The coloured text on this console is made up of weird characters instead of normal. Please see http://www.softins.co.uk/dsc00018.jpg for an example. If I do "asterisk -rvvvvv" on a normal login, either via the

Hello, I'm running debain on my machine with postfix, squirrelmail and dovecot installed. Everything works fine and I'm able to access my mail via squirrelmail and via Outlook with imap. However I want to create subfolders what is not possible. After reading I discovered that I use mbox and that maildir is needed in order to be able to use subfolders. I have created a Maildir folder with

Dear All, I have server with a 160G disk with one partition /dev/hde1. The PC had FC1 and everything was working fine. I decided to do an upgrade to FC4. Now I can no longer mount that partition. I don't think anything happened to the file system, but changes in kernel and modules due to the upgrade is now making it inaccessible. I tried: mk2fs -n /dev/hde1 got a list of
