Silly newbie questions...
Hi,
I'm relatively new to dovecot, less than 48 hours, and I've ran in to a few
bugs in the installation/configuration process.
Here's my set up.
I have my own domain. Within the domain, I have a couple of Linux boxes.
So I control both my primary and secondary mail servers.
My Linux boxes are a mixture of SuSE 9.2, 9.3 and 10.0 (All based on age of
the hardware.)
I'd like

Silly question...
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!

Yet another silly question...
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!

Can Dovecot work with an RDBMS for mail/attachment storage?
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?

1.0.rc28 / v1.0 plans
I'll probably release 1.0.rc28 in a few days. Would be nice to get some
testing for it first. http://dovecot.org/nightly/dovecot-latest.tar.gz
contains pretty much what it's supposed to be.
I've now replied to all the mails I was planning on replying, excluding
the few patches that are v1.1 material. If you think I forgot to reply
to some mail, please resend it.

Speed up large maildirs
Hi,
I'm very fond of maildirs, they are simple, I like that.
But I've never really understood the significance of maildir/new/. The only use I can see is
that (for example in the case of dovecot), you'd move a message from new to cur and then
update the index-file, that's it.
So to make put it more direct, you'd know when and with what to update the index-file, based

dovecot-lda and vpopmail
I'm setting up a new box with Dovecot 1.0 beta1 and vpopmail. Normal
operations works like a charm, i.e. vpopmail virtual can log in
sucessfully using TLS.
However, when trying to test dovecot-lda out of CVS, it is not locating

Deliverm, vpopmail, and valias
I'm in the final stages of testing my e-mail server to come and I seem
to have hit a roadblock.
One option of current vpopmail is to store all aliases in a valias
table, that looks like this:
+-------------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+-------------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| alias | char(32) |

Replacing qmail + vpopmail with: sendmail + dovecot
Hi,
I wonder if it posible to replace qmail + vpopmail with sendmail + dovecot?
The idea is like this:
- use sendmail + milter API to filter spam/virus and deliver the email to
the dovevot MDA (LDA)
- dovecot should save the email to the directory as specified in the
vpopmail DB
- maintain the vpopmail BD (users + passwd)
- use dovecot pop3/imap for the clients
- use sendmail again to receive

Quick question
Hi all,
I'm going to be out of office for the next week (starting in the next
hour or so) and I need to unsubscribe (I'm sure you don't want my out of
office replies really)
Can anyone help me by saving me the time it'll take to lookup the
unsubscribe/resubscribe details?
Many thanks,

Server going crazy!!!
I have dovecot-0.99.11-1FC3.4. I use Pine on the server and Outlook
2003 on remote computers to access IMAP and POP3 to access via my
blackberry 7100t. It seems that after using IMAP and then going back to
pine it somehow refreshes everything and all the messages are picked up on
my blackberry once again as if the emails are new. So everything that is
in my inbox is now pushed or grabbed

1.0-test64
http://dovecot.org/test/
Possibly fixes the mail-cache-transaction assert.
Passdb and userdb configuration changed. New format is:
passdb sql {
args = /etc/dovecot-sql.conf
}
passdb pam?{
}
userdb passwd {
}
The above would first try to authenticate from SQL database, if it
failed because user wasn't found, or password was wrong, it would then
try PAM. The same is done for userdbs.

Dovecot's as server based and mail filters and addressbooks holder?
Hello.
I'm just wondering, that maybe is the time to change the imap -s format
or add some more features, are in these day's most people, me also are
so called mobile users. And imap is good solution for us but however
still some basic things are missing, fore example:
1) Server side mail filters. I read mails from home, from office and
from webmail. Now when I need to make mail
