Hello, I am running dovecot-1.0-0_34 on Centos 4.4 In dovecot.conf I have: default_mail_env = maildir:/var/spool/mail/vhosts/%n/%d the content of that folder is: drwxrwxr-x 3 vmail vmail 4096 Dec 30 05:23 .. drwx------ 5 vmail vmail 4096 Sep 12 13:55 .Drafts drwx------ 5 vmail vmail 4096 Dec 29 18:26 .Sent drwx------ 5 vmail vmail 4096 Dec 30 03:37 .Trash drwx------ 5 vmail

Hello, Here is an issue. I am trying to make dovecot work with sendmail If I use the default conf file (default_mail_env = ) then the inbox is the file /var/mail/user and a mail folder is created in /home/user directory where it stores all additional imap folders. The problem with this is that I can?t have subfolders. If I edit dovecot.conf file and enter default_mail_env =

I've just found out what it's doing, so I thought I'd include the useful symptom.

I have both 1.0 alpha1 and alpha2 installed on my test mail server. SSL/TLS does not work on alpha2. I'm using the same config file for both. No errrors in dovecot.log either. Is there a way to increase debugging info without recompiling?

Hi, I'm in the process of migrating from local Maildir, to IMAP-enabled Maildir (terms are made up by me). I have my Maildir directories all under $HOME/Mail I have a procmail script that sorts everything into different folders under $HOME/Mail, and leaves the rest in a Maildir folder chosen by me, that I think of as my INBOX. Now, I am assuming that the folder I identify as INBOX is the

I've spent most of the morning looking through the archives. Great information, however, I'm still unable to get my issues figured out. I believe I am missing something quite simple. From what I have read, I want to use maildir, mainly because it will allow the use of subfolders for my clients. My clients are running Mail.app (mostly) on 10.3 clients. I'm planning on using imap

Hi there, i'm trying to get dovecot, procmail, postfix & SpamAssassin working together http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=441062 But i'm not having a lot of luck, a question about dovecot, what kind of mail box am i using? mbox? if so does anyone know if procmail can use mbox? /etc/dovecot.conf protocols = imap pop3 imap_listen = [::] pop3_listen = [::]

I'm trying to figure out how I might set up some virtual hosting accounts for my server. domain1 would be delivered via procmail to ~/Maildir mail directories domain2 would be delivered via postfix to /var/mail/vhosts/domain2/username and similarly for additional domains. There's also one domain that's delivered to another machine, but that's not a dovecot issue. I just

Hello all I'm new to dovecot (and imap in general!) having installed only only today. My current set up is exim as MTA with procmail delivering /var/spool/mail/%user (which gets nfs exported). We also have a pop3 server running as well. I'm moving to new machine and though I'd look at dovecot and squirrelmail. In /etc/dovecot.conf I'm confused by the default_mail_env, what

Hi Perhaps I've been going too far OT in my previous thread or perhaps I just didn't explain my problem clear enough so forgive me for trying again. I have configured fetchmail to fetch my mail from my ISP's POP3-server. I have set up procmail to filter messages and deliver all non-filtered messages to the folder ".IN-catchall/" in "$HOME/Maildir" After sending

Attempting to setup smtpd auth for Postfix using the Dovecot authorization unix socket. Some info is at: http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html To enable operation when Postfix is chrooted, a method from the reference above is to locate the socket at: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth To do this, I have this configuration in dovecot.conf: # listener sockets will be created by Dovecot's

hello all i am new to dovecot and i have a small problem. I use qmail as a pop3 server and dovecot as imap. my rc script is as follows: -----snip----- #!/bin/sh exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \ qmail-start '|preline procmail' splogger qmai -----end----- thus i deliver mails through procmail so all mails are located to /var/spool/mail. The problem exists when i tested

Folks - I've been using Dovecot for some time now, but have only recently upgraded to 1.0alpha4. I'm struggling to get my configuration right and I'm seeing some truly bizarre issues. My Setup: Solaris 2.8 / Thunderbird / Procmail / Dovecot 1.0alpha4 My mail setup is only for me, so Dovecot runs at an odd port and under my userID. All my mail is in my home directory, which

Folks - My setup is that my mail is filed (by procmail) in ~/.mail/Maildir, an NFS filesystem. But I'm running Dovecot (1.0alpha5) on my local machine (as myself on port 2143), just to serve this mail to my browser (Thunderbird 1.0.2). The NFS data is on a netapp which seems to be creating .nfs files LIKE CRAZY. I expect these are the remnants of lock files, so I'm trying to move my

Hi, I've been reading the list and it seems the answer to my (soon to be asked question) is no, at least with 0.99, but I'll ask to be sure. I have following setup: new mail goes to ~/Mail/Maildir, except for mailing lists which are moved by procmail to ~/Mail/mailing_lists/name, spam which goes to ~/Mail/spam. Read mail is moved by mutt to ~/Mail/read. Everything is in maildir format.

Hello! I run the following environment: UW imapd pine sendmail procmail mbox format I migrated from UW imapd to dovecot. It is pretty faster than UW imapd. To ensure a compatible environment I did the following configuration changes in /etc/dovecot.conf: protocols = imaps default_mail_env = mbox:~:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mail_full_filesystem_access = yes mbox_read_locks = fcntl mbox_write_locks

Hi, I'm having problems accessing home directories though NFS. This setup uses LDAP and Kerberos. Users defined on the local host work fine. This is what dovecot writes in the logs while trying to log in as the user johndoe: ---- Mar 19 14:10:54 jack dovecot-auth: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server... Mar 19 14:10:54 jack dovecot-auth: nss_ldap: reconnected to LDAP server after 1

Hey all, After some kind soul made me understand what I can expect from Dovecot, I feel really embarassed for not being able to set it up correctly. What I already had was ~/Mail, containing about six maildirs. Exim got mail, delivered it to procmail, and procmail dropped it in my inbox; a needless extra step that I keep for future, ehm, needs that I might start to care about when I can just

Today I upgraded to dovecot 1.0 rc1 (before I was using a 1.0 beta, as it had functions no one else had), the beta worked fairly well, no crashes, and the bugs were few and far between. I had a few issues with thunderbird 1.5, so I decided to upgrade. My problem is this, before, I had configured procmail to deliver SPAM to a subdirectory of the users home directory, (not mail/) and
