quota issue POP3
Hi
Just u/g to RH FC3 from RH8.0 which seemed to work fine with quotas.
I have quotas for usernames set up as
/home/domain/domainX/username/ for web space 50MB say 48MB used so 2MB free
and
/var/mail/spool/username for email. 100MB (60MB used so 40MB is
available). /var/mail/username is symbolic linked via to spool/mail under
/var
dovecot seems to be using the quota for /home/.. and sees

MySQL and dovecot
Hi,
I have some problems with my connection from outside to POP3/IMAP... As far
as I can see every should be set corret. Currently I use version
0.99.11-1.FC3.4 installed from an RPM-file.
I tried to debug the signin process. It's always saying bad password... What
encryption can DoveCot read? Currently my password is encrypted with
md5crypt...

mbox 2 Maildir
Hi,
I am experimenting with the migration.
I unset mail_location, thus it is empty and dovecot performs automatic
mailbox detection. Therefore I do not need per-user set of mail
location. I login as a testuser and do:
doveadm sync maildir:~/Maildir
It seems for me that in this situation the new Maildir becomes the
active mail delivery location at the time of the creation(?) or

System users, mbox format and global ACLs
I need some help here... ;-)
I'm experimenting with global ACLs, but just fail to understand very
basic behaviors.
So, before digging into the source code, I would really be delighted
if someone could immediately point a mistake I'm making and miserably
overlooking.
The output of dovecot -n is provided at the end of this email.

1 user has random pam auth issues
Hi
Dovecot 1.0 stable on FC3
i see this in my logs from 1 user
Oct 19 07:20:36 proteus2a dovecot(pam_unix)[2937]: authentication failure;
logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty= ruser= rhost=1.2.3.4 user=testuser
IP & user changed by me.
at other times he has no issues. no other users are reporting this. could it
be his ADSL is flaky or is there another scenario.

Possible bug in authentication cache in dovecot 1.1.alpha4
Hello,
it seems that there is some bug in authentication cache code in dovecot
version 1.1.alpha4 - after login attempt with wrong password the correct
password also will fail.
I can reproduce it very easy:
$telnet 10.10.10.30 110
+OK Server. <861.2.46e6c679.jZ8QYpFmU8ZN6XIq7zPhkw==@server2>

quit
+OK Logging out.

Home-Shares are not writeable
Hello everyone!
After running Samba on several machines for some years, I just came
accross a rather strange problem. The short story is that the special
user home shares are readable, but not writeable.
Here's the long story: The system is a freshly set-up Debian Squeeze,
right out of the box. This is the Samba config:

Winbindd and SSH (just disconnects after login)
It looks like I've gotten the majority of things working in regards to
Winbind. Users are being authenticated by the NT4 PDC when connecting to
shares, but I can't seem to get things set up correctly to allow logging in
via SSH(OpenSSH_3.6.1p2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090702f). It
appears as though I'm successfully authenticated by the PDC, but then the

Dovecot and the Maildir path
System basics
??? Centos 7.3
??? Dovecot 2.2.32 (dfbe293d4)
I am working on a replacement mail server for work and one of the features I wanted was ldap authentication
After much fiddling I got it to work.
But I encountered a issue where two different methods of testing a mail account resulted in the
mail_location being different
I set? mail_location = maildir:/var/spool/maildir/%d/%n/Maildir

Moving messages between servers with different configurations
Hi Martin,
I feel a bit like an idiot, but I have been trying with copy, so I do
not lose any message when testing. But I can't get them to copy. I do
indeed have same uid and gid.

Make a share owned by a service account available to members of an AD group
The only way it seems to work is if I do have both the local and AD user with the same name. But my goal here is to not require that, to have the AD account only.
I have applied Unix attributes to the users. testuser uidNumber = 30089 and gidNumber = 100. However, when I try to query with wbinfo, I was unable to look that up:
