Hi, I just upgraded from test80 to 1.0alpha1. I wanted to try something new on the lock_method, so I set: lock_method = fcntl, dotlock I got syslog complaints like: IMAP(username): Unknown lock_method: fcntl, dotlock Can one specify multiple file locking mechanisms? If so, what is the syntax (and can the syntax be shown in the comments of the .conf file)? Jeff Earickson Colby College

Hello, I'm running an Debian etch box with unstable and ever since the last upgrade to dovecot, I've seen odd things. At times, I would see emails would go missing from the Inbox or other folders, and I couldn't move emails that were moved from the Inbox to another folder back into the Inbox. These have seen gone away since I removed all dovecot.* files and .index* files from my

Hello, Has anyone succeeded on configuring and compiling Sieve capable Dovecot LDA on RHEL 4 x86_64 platform? I am having problems with configure script hanging on sed while creating Makefiles. # ./configure --with-dovecot=../dovecot .. checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate checking whether stripping libraries is possible... yes checking for library containing

Hello, Does dovecot require mysql in order to work? Fedora rpms are claiming mysql dependencies. I'm sure you're aware of the long-lived arguement of postgresql v. mysql. If it wasn't your intention to force this, then please snarl at Red Hat. If it was your intention, then grrrrr! Thanks for this product. I like it for it's speed and stability. Jim Edwards

Hi, We're trying out Dovecot to see if it's a good replacement for UW-imapd. It seems to be very slow in opening an mbox file, even after it's been indexed. (I mean way slower than UW) Here's some info on the system: Dovecot-1.0-test61 SuSE 8.1, Linux kernel 2.4 Using NFS to access mail. I've tried turning off mmap, using dotlocking, using fcntl locking (lockd, etc. are

Getting it otherwise to work, but I still can't get it to listen any SSL-ports. been testing: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s listen = 193.65.59.150 ssl_listen = 193.65.59.150 doesn't help. with: ssl_disable = no of course. protocol imap { # Login executable location. login_executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login # IMAP executable location mail_executable =

Hi, does anyone know where Timo is around lately? I haven't seen a post from him for some weeks now and "normally" Timo is quite active when it comes to supporting his 'dovecot' warp drive :-) Udo Rader -- bestsolution.at EDV Systemhaus GmbH http://www.bestsolution.at -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Ok, I've ALMOST got this working ... I can run deliver as a user, but when I try using it as the default delivery agent from sendmail, I get deliver(userid): net_connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Permission denied Does deliver run as root, as the recipient's ID, sendmail's ID or sendmail's GID? (I'm running freebsd) Or am I totally clueless ?? Here is dovecot

There are three applications that have their mitts on files on my mail server, which is running AIXV5.3 and UWIMAP and mbox format. The mail folders and INBOXES are native to that machine, but also are NFS exported to a login server and a mailing list server. All three machines are running the lockd daemon. Everybody wants to lock differently 1) procmail (delivering for sendmail), which

Dear Colleagues, I use exim's appendfile transport, procmail and a local mutt on my system, they all (to my knowledge) use lockfiles when working with mboxes. However, `doveconf | grep lock` says dotlock_use_excl = yes lock_method = fcntl mail_max_lock_timeout = 0 mbox_dotlock_change_timeout = 2 mins mbox_lock_timeout = 5 mins mbox_read_locks = fcntl mbox_write_locks = dotlock fcntl

I have Dovecot 1.0 in trial use by the IT staff, and have some locking questions Background, the mail server runs procmail, sendmail and NFS exports the user homedir and mailbox to a) a login shell host and b) a mailing list services host. It runs UWIMAP on the usual ports and dovecot on a arbitrary port number. Because of concern with NFS and file access contention. I have the following

I apologise if this is a faq but I couldn't find it in the archives. FreeBSD math 4.11-RELEASE-p26 FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE-p26 dovecot version 1.0.3 x86 cpu local disk (ufs) Trying to run "deliver" from user's .forward file. sendmail configured with smrsh, forward file says: | "deliver" Imap seems to work fine, but deliver says: deliver(rw): mbox read/write lock list

How does IMAP lock the /var/spool/mail/user file? Here's my problem: I'm writing a script to expire old or oversize mail through a series of archive folders. I don't want to take the whole server down to do this, nor does it seem like I would have to lock the user out entirely if I can manage to emulate the locks correctly. I am able to lock /var/spool/mail/user (and ~user/mail/*)

Hi List, last time i did a lot of packaging and installing different versions of dovecot 1.0.x (rc not included ;) )and all was fine. Now a have a little problem. In this case it was an update from 1.0.13 to 1.1.1 Sometime it happens that 1 user out of x (more than 100) got this standardmessage for ~1 or ~2 thousend times in his mailbox (mbox) for example: >From MAILER_DAEMON Mon Sep 18

I'm trying to get dovecot-lda working on a FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE box (also had the same problem on 5.4) When I run autogen.sh I get the following output: aclocal:configure.in:13 <http://configure.in:13>: warning: macro `AM_PROG_LIBTOOL' not found in library You should update your `aclocal.m4' by running aclocal. configure.in <http://configure.in>: installing

I'm trying to test out dovecot 1.0 alpha 3 prior to an upgrade from dovecot-0.99.14, but I cannot get imaps listening on anything other than 993. I've tried putting listen = *:2023 in the global section or in the imap { } section. No luck. What is the proper format for a config that only runs imaps and only listens on a particular port? -- Andrew Clark Campus Network Programmer

Should it be possible to run multiple dovecot servers on the same mailboxes (Maildir in my case)? I've a setup where 2 dovecot 0.99.13 servers write to the same mailboxes, which dovecot apparently does not like too much. Example (using imap): - Login with mail client on server1 - Login with webmail on server2 - Delete a mail using webmail on server2 - Hit send/receive in the mail client

http://dovecot.org/test/ - Recent flag fixes - saving/copying mails into maildir which didn't have index files was broken - output stream fix - pop3 crashfix - mbox_dirty_syncs fixes, also disabling it didn't work before - etc. There are still some crashes and I don't remember if I fixed a problem with mboxes where expunging mails while new mails were coming caused some
