Hi, Got a situation where I have a couple of mailing list subscriptions as well as system generated e-mails from my clients' computers sending me warning messages. (Along with my normal load of personal e-mail). Does it make sense to set up virtual mailboxes (maildirs) one for each mailing list or group? Then using an IMAP client to subscribed only to the lists that I *want* to read? My

I'm trying to build a new 1.0+ copy of dovecot. I'm trying to build it so I can use SSL. I tried the ./configure --with_ssl= option, did a make clean, then a make and a make install. Still get the same error saying that even though I set the SSL use flag, it was not compiled with SSL. Thoughts? TIA! -- Michael Segel Principal MSCC 312 952- 8175 [M]

Ok, I now have Dovecot working but I'm having an issue with my start up from xinetd. I tried to follow the examples in the documentation, but why can't I just have a single entry for IMAP with just dovecot? Wouldn't this also open up the SSL and the POP3 stuff as well? TIA! -- Michael Segel Principal MSCC 312 952- 8175 [M]

This may seem off the wall, but can dovecot be configured to support a connection to a database server and use the database server to store the e-mail message and its attachments? While you can use Postgres and MySQL for storing and authenticating users, there is a possibility to use an RDBMs to control the mail itself. Thoughts? -- Michael Segel Principal MSCC

I see you haven?t received an answer. Sorry people here don?t seem to have time or inclination to answer basic questions. I?ve tried. You?re better to search elsewhere.

Thanks! But I?m still trying to understand where to look and debug the inbound mail issue? Any pointers on where to start?

Hi, I?ve downloaded and built dovecot from the source. Now I?ve run in to a couple of issues. Like namespaces. Is there an example of the namespaces settings? Nothing fancy, just the basics? These are private mailboxes, but still need to know what I have to do to set this correctly. Thanks In Advance, -Mike

Here is a simple template you can use as quick start example, and what you can expand later on, feel free to adapt your needs mail_home=/home/vmail/%Lu mail_location=sdbox:~/Mail mail_uid = vmail mail_gid = vmail passdb { driver = static args = password=pass } ssl=yes ssl_cert=<cert.pem ssl_key=<key.pem namespace { inbox = yes separator = / } ps.

Hello, I have installed my Samba as a PDC with LDAP Backend, it worked fine, I was able to join the Domain with a Windows XP Client.But Today when i started the server, i can't join a domain anymore. I also can't add users to ldap anymore with smbldap-tools i always get this failure message: 3444 Use of uninitialized value in substitution (s///) at /usr/share/perl5/smbldap_tools.pm line

Adjust drivers that support the 'FLOW_DISSECTOR_KEY_META' key to reject filters that try to match on the newly added layer 2 miss option. Add an extack message to clearly communicate the failure reason to user space. Example: # tc filter add dev swp1 egress pref 1 proto all flower skip_sw l2_miss true action drop Error: mlxsw_spectrum: Can't match on "l2_miss". We have

Dear R helper, I hope that u can help me to sort out my problem because I sent an E-mail last night to R-list but I have not receive any help and at the same time I think this problem is not so hard. I have used the following functions before > K<-10 > prime<-c(2,3,5,7,11,13,17) > UN<-seq(1:K)%*%t(sqrt(prime)) > U1<-UN-as.integer(UN) > U<-matrix(qnorm(U1),K,7)

I DID offer my help privately. And I have attempted on NUMEROUS occasions to contract somebody to help with ZERO response. So, you?ll excuse me if I have an attitude.

Hi, Here's the scenario. I want to set up a mailbox so that when mail sent to the address is piped to a processing application, instead of going to a mailbox. One way I can do this is to set up a mailbox and then have an application that checks to see if there's mail and then processes it. (Old school Unix script) Is there a way to set it up with dovecot? (Cleaner solution) Thx

Silly question? Which is preferred? MailDir or Mbox? (directory vs flat file) How would you do this when migrating from an old server to a new one?

My production imap is currently UWIMAP with mbox.. One of the problems commonly observed is mailbox lock loss, which happens when: a) a VIP has multiple secretaries accessing a single mailbox (actually, they are professional enough to have figured the realities of conflicting access and rarely have a problem), b) somebody leaving their machine on at home and coming in and firing up their work

I?m doing a new dovecot mail server for my domain. Here?s yet another thing I mucked up. I wanted to set up virtual mailboxes. One reason was that I wanted to set up virtual users for the domain so I don?t need to create user accounts just mail accounts. I followed one of the many examples / tutorials out there and I end up with the following warning message. postfix/trivial-rewrite[8818]:

Hello, I was asking what was the motivation for not having the envelope From in the Maildir format, as defined in the qmail spec : "The message is delivered without an extra UUCP- style From_ line, without any >From quoting, and without an extra blank line at the end." which may sound silly since we lose an important piece of information. Same question about the motivation in

Hi, i never used dovecot so far, but i heard a couple good things about it .. for one the debian maintainer of the exim package recommended it :-) so i want to change our mailserver (currently using ipop3 and uw-imap) to dovecot ... now my boss seems to favour cyrus. i could use some good arguments for dovecot, also your experiences with it and with other mailservers so i can make a

Hi, I?m building a new linux box to replace my current DNS/Mail server for my SOHO. I was going to set up postfix/dovecot/mysql so I can support virtual users. I also use Webmin to make admin easier. I ran in to a couple of snags. When I first got it set up, mail went to the virtmail user and I could use my Mac mail client to read the mail. Everything was working when testing it. I was
