similar to: Dovecot development status v1.0

Hi there... Two questions: (1) Is there an easy way to have Dovecot recognize subdirectories that do not begin with a dot as sub-hierarchies? (2) Is there a way to have the root folder map to a certain other mbox/maildir? I want a setup like this: / -> $HOME/mbox /INBOX -> /var/spool/<username> /folder -> $HOME/mail/folder /folder/foo -> $HOME/mail/folder/foo

Hi there. I understood that in Dovecot 1.0 it should be possible to mix the usage of mbox and maildir mailboxes. I just downloaded, built, and am testing dovecot-stable-20050304. I'm a bit confused as to the terms of namespaces (haven't read that part of the RFC yet), but this does not seem related. Anyway, when I try specifying: default_mail_env = ~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u On

Hi there. I am evaluating Dovecot as an IMAP server. I noticed on thing which irritates me. When a user saves a message to an IMAP folder with the Dovecot server, the envelope From line is changed to the address of that user, instead of keeping the From line of the original message. How can I have the original envelope From line preserved when saving messages? -- Tom -- Tom Alsberg -

Dear list, I have inherited a CentOS-5 box with a LSI Sata Raid controller. It is configured as a RAID5 w/hot-standby. My concern is that I have no present means of determining the RAID status w/o downing the system and going into the bios to get status. If a disk has failed and brought the standby disk online, I would like to know about it, the day it happens by seeing it in syslog or getting

Hi there... Having updated to 1.0.beta1, I for a while thought a bad bug with IDLE handling that caused new mail in INBOX not to appear when using Mozilla Thunderbird has been solved. Although I can not reproduce one kind of problem anymore, after a short while it again appears that one does not always see one's new mail with Thunderbird. I can not consistently reproduce the bug, but

Dear Dovecot list, I maintain a few small sendmail/dovecot/procmail based mail servers with system users only (no virtual domains or virtual users) on OpenBSD. I have been able to get a vacation system working with both with the native vacation program from OpenBSD and with procmail. I've been looking into dovecot sieve, but it doesn't appear to solve the bigger user complaint which is,

Hi there. Perhaps this is answered somewhere, but a short search through the mailing list and Wiki yielded nothing. We have spam filtering set up for all users, with all messages over some spam threshold going to a separate mbox. There is one directory containing the spam mboxes of all users (call it "/var/spool/spam", right now), with the spam box of a user residing in

Hello! I'm running squirrelmail 1.4.8 (I know this is not the latest version) and know I'm having troubles with: 1.) Folder list view 2.) Save to sent or Drafts folder. Configuration worked well. I think it has to do with the upgrade from dovecot 1.0 to 1.1 and the LIST command. Thunderbird/alpine work well. Commands from rawlog are: A002 LIST "" "~/Mail/Drafts"

http://dovecot.org/test/ Lots of bugfixes related to syncing. There's still some left. Somewhat working mbox support: - combined syncing/rewriting uses much less disk I/O than with older mbox code - expunges aren't working yet - last-uid field in X-IMAPbase header isn't updated - it's currently syncing the whole mbox constantly even if it hasn't changed - it

Hi there, I am using Evolution to connect to dovecot imap server. Today the server was upgraded to 2.2.1 from 2.1.9, and there is problem with evolution being unable to subscribe to INBOX. This is from dovecot 2.1.9: a002 list "" "*" return (subscribed) * LIST (\Subscribed) "." "Sent Items" * LIST (\Subscribed) "." "Junk E-mail" * LIST

Hi, I have some trouble trying to test the quota plugin. First off all, it says in the wiki: "Dovecot 1.0 supports quota using a quota plugin. It's currently discussed in Dovecot LDA page and it supports only very simple quota calculation which is suitable only for mboxes. Maildir++ quota support will come later." Does that mean that it won't work at all with Maildir++, or

As promised, here it is finally. v1.0 is getting nearer and I want people to start looking at Dovecot's sources. Getting some more help with development would be nice, but I'd also like to hear if there are any hidden bugs in the code. So, one week from now I'll start offering 1000 EUR for the first person to point out a remotely exploitable security hole in Dovecot. See

Hi! I have two Dovecot-2.2.13 servers with Dsync Replication: server1 and server2. When I execute 'EXPUNGE' on server1 side, the messages with FLAG \Deleted are expunged only on server1. The message is still present in Server2. Could someone give me a hint reason for this ? Thanks in advance! -- Thiago Henrique ======================================================================

Hi, all. Thanks Timo for answering my previous post. It's starting fine now :) I must be doing something wrong again but I can't connect from any imap client. If I telnet to the server I get: $ telnet carpa 11143 Trying 143.107.209.25... Connected to carpa.ciagri.usp.br. Escape character is '^]'. * OK dovecot ready. a001 login marcelo ##### a001 OK Logged in. a002 select INBOX

Hello, After upgrading from 1.2.x to 2.0.x I'm having problems using sent folder in Webmail applications like roundcube mail and squirrelmail. Relevant config dovecot.conf: mail_location = mbox:~:INBOX=/var/mail/%u Different LIST behaviour from rawlog: 1.2.x: with Prefix ~/Mail A002 LIST "" "~/Mail/sent" * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/"

I am not very experienced with the MSDOS command line and even less so with wine. I am working on a realtime embedded C project and must, for the time being, use DOS command line tools. Since my work environment for decades has been Unix and Unix-like, I am trying to get the tool set to run under Wine on Hardy. I have solved several problems, but now I need to reset the path. I have a .bat

Hi, I am using dovecot: 1.0.rc15 I was upgrading Debian and installed new versions of lots of things. My mail came fine and I though there was not problem until a user called and said it was not working through webmail. I tried, it it worked fine and I realized the problem was with dovecot. I have created new users, tried different UIDs. Removed any protections but when I telnet to the

Is it possible to have some folders be mbox and some be maildir format? Why you might ask? Sometime for diagnostics I have the Exim MTA archive certain messages in MBOX format and then I want to copy them into an imao folder to look at them with Thunderbird. When I used MBOX all I had to do was copy the file into a folder and it worked. So what I'd like to do is have a folder with a

When moving messages with squirrelmail (or kmail), I get the following error: ERROR : Could not complete request. Query: COPY 3 "INBOX" Reason Given: Unexpected EOF According to the config I switched on rawlog: # This would write rawlogs into ~/dovecot.rawlog/ directory: mail_executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/rawlog /usr/lib/dovecot/imap rawlog.c was altered in order to have /tmp as

Again, not a Dovecot issua - but can someone clarify better what IMAP subscriptions (SUBSCRIBE/UNSUBSCRIBE/LSUB) are and what they are used for? I've seen a few times in Microsoft mail clients, the options to subscribe to folders and to "show only subscribed folders". I haven't played much with them, though. But what's the actual point? Except for being returned in the
