Smtp1.song.fi and smtp2.song.fi, our list servers, seem to have gotten listed in the bl.spamcop.net RBL. Spamcop listings are temporary and will time out, and because of occasional major false positives (or perhaps collateral damage?) like this I don't use it to reject mail. Anyone who IS using Spamcop to reject mail has missed much of today's list traffic. -- mail to this

Pegasus Mail 4.41 is an excellent client on Windows. It works fine with both Dovecot IMAP and POP3 (APOP, IMAP LOGIN commands only - no SASL). Responds to async events. Supports IMAP STARTTLS. Does not use IDLE - periodic CHECKs. Fast and sensible header caches, light on resources. Offline mode, but read-only, using cache (prefetch options available if body caching enabled, it's not

Hello, Well... thanks to the input of all of you I have my dovecot->ldap connection working for almost all of my clients, however... on outlook, a message for certificates being trusted comes up, the user clicks yes and connection fails. Questions: Do I have to get an ssl certificate to make it work? ( cost ouch!) Is there a way around this using my own self-signed certificates? Is there

Hi all, I am starting fresh with a local repository of mails, which almost certainly have duplicates in them. I am going to use maildirs, and ensure all mails are input with CRLFs. The question is: does anybody know how I can find and remove duplicates, either while injecting mail with IMAP, or afterward? I can use tools to find duplicate Message-IDs, but don't know of a way to remove

Hi, It's not clear from the configuration when CR/LF conversion happens with mail_save_crlf set. Does this only happen with appends, or do all mails handled by Dovecot always get converted when opened?

Hi all, Speaking of Debian, what relative position are the Debian Unstable (Sid) packages in to the latest "Bleeding edge" builds of RCS-based releases from the Wiki? If using Unstable is it recommended to stay or use the newer ones? I'd say it was production, yes, but I'm forgiving of problems in the latest releases, so long as they aren't meant to be beta (i.e., known

Hi, all! I configured Dovecot to use many protocols. To do this, I wrote: mechanisms = plain digest-md5 cram-md5 apop ntlm Very strange, if I ask the capability, I get: CAPA TOP UIDL RESP-CODES PIPELINING STLS USER SASL PLAIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 NTLM . I can't understand why APOP is not written (but I can use it!) and why I can see SASL, that I didn't configure... How can I change

Hi, We're running dovecot 1.2.15 and use SQL authentication. We'd like to be able to support APOP, but can't see how this would fit in with SQL auth. Currently we have: password_query = SELECT email as user, password FROM virtual_users WHERE email='%u' or (email LIKE '%n@%%' AND unhashed='%w') It seems that in order to auth APOP logins, we'd need to

I want to turn off POP3 and use POP3S in its place. So far, it's working well for Outlook and Thunderbird. But I'm running into problems with Agent: It supports APOP but not POP3S. Is there a way to have Dovecot support APOP authentication on a normal POP3 connection? I'm running 0.99.13 on Fedora Core 3. -- Steve

Timo, It looks like Dovecot 2.0 appends an APOP challenge to the POP3 greeting even if APOP is not an enabled auth mechanism. Is there any way to disable this? We don't support APOP, and the challenge includes the private hostname of the server, which we'd rather not have in the banner. It looks like get_apop_challenge in 1.2 returns NULL if APOP isn't supported, which causes

How does one go about generating a local password database for apop authentication? Or can it simply run against /etc/passwd, using a PAM entry?

Fellow Dovecot'ers, I've -almost- got Dovecot completely functional, and I will add that it works just fine for non-authenticated POP3. The problem begins when I try to use authentication for same against the system's /etc/passwd section.

Dear all, Hi. This is imacat from Taiwan. I'm new to this list. I was migrating from Qpopper to Dovecot. (Qpopper copies the mailbox when POP3 logged in, which causes quota problem.) Generally Dovecot is nice. However, I have a few questions: 1. I have a few virtual users, and I'm not using IMAP. Do I still have to give them a writable home directory? I mean, they

Hi, Whenever my Dovecot installation is POP3-dictionary-attacked, a large number of log entries written to /var/log/local0 from the syslog showing all the POP3 login and shadow lookup failures is produced and then the entire Dovecot installation crashes, master and all. Unfortunately, it was running unattended under normal use, is apparently quite hard to reproduce (I wrote a Tcl script
