Hi, I have been running dovecot cvs happily for.. well.. very, very long now. Don't remember when I switched from 0.99, but it was back in the test-days, long before the alpha's. Anyway, it seems to have been working very well all the time. But recently three of my clients have claimed to have lost mail when moving from Thunderbird. I even experienced it myself once. I'm using

Hello, My server is configured as follows: FreeBSD 6.1 OpenLDAP 2.3.27 Cyrus SASL 2.1.21 Dovecot 1.0.rc15 I have PostFix configured to use SASL for SMTP AUTH, which in turn leverages OpenLDAP to verify users in Active Directory. I do not have, nor want to in the future, local users in FreeBSD, so I've configured PostFix for Virtual Mailboxes. Everything is working and I'm getting

Hi. I'm configuring LDAP auth with dovecot (cvs trunk at 14, July) as follows: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf: user_attrs = mail,homeDirectory,mailbox,,, user_global_uid = 10000 user_global_gid = 1000 But

Hello list, I'm using dovecot 1.0.2 on OpenBSD 4.1. About every month, dovecot will just stall, without any error messages. The processes are still running, the network ports are open, but the login just hangs. The following error message does occur on a very regular basis: Aug 15 00:52:37 mail dovecot: auth(default): LDAP: ldap_result() failed: Can't contact LDAP server Aug 15

I'm a bit unclear on these - give me a moment to ramble on. I should mention I'm using version 1.0.3, my primary backend is LDAP, and I do NOT want to store user mail folders in my LDAP directory. I currently have the following: default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/%d/%n passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } # Instructions for deliver state a userdb is still

Hi, I can't seem to figure this out. Is it impossible to use two different ldap auth? It works if I use one ldap and one pam, but I do need to use ldap for both. This is from my config: auth default { mechanisms = plain passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap-virtual.conf } passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } userdb ldap { args =

Hi to all, I am using the new beta release 1.1. I see that parameters user_global_uid and user_global_gid are no more used in dovecot-ldap.conf. That means that, as I use LDAP as backend I am obliged to se t these two fileds in LDAP for each user even if they are always the same, as I use virtual domains. I see that I can set the in dovecot.conf the parameters mail_uid and mail_gid, but

Hi all, I'm using 1.0.beta3 and having problems using userdb prefetch in conjuction with passdb sql.

hi, i'm trying to set a dovecot/pop + postfix couple with ldap authentification. and i'v got a lots of troubles. hers's my dovecot.conf protocols = pop3 login = imap login = pop3 first_valid_gid = 1000 last_valid_gid = 0 mail_extra_groups = mail default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/%1u/%u/Maildir mbox_locks = dotlock flock auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = ldap

I have a setup that I'm working on migrating to Dovecot for thousands of users across a few dozen domains.. All users are authed from LDAP.. In LDAP, each user has a unique uidNumber, and varying gidNumber (for use in other applications) As far as mail storage, the entire Maildir structure is owned by UID/GID: vmail/vmail So, the uidNumber/gidNumber from LDAP is not needed. global uid/gid is

Hello, I've configured MySQL authentication as follows. -- divecot-sql.conf -- driver = mysql connect = host=localhost dbname=postfix user=myuser password=mypass default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = SELECT password FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' user_query = SELECT CONCAT('/var/vmail/', maildir, 'Maildir') AS home, '1234' AS uid, '1234'

I am having some issues with getting the prefetch working. In /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext I am having: pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,host=host,homeDirectory=userdb_home,uidNu mber=userdb_uid,gidNumber=userdb_gid If I do an ldap search from this location I am able to get these properties. ldapsearch -LLL -W -s sub -D

Hola! Dovecot should serve virtual mail users. So I've set user_global_uid and user_global_gid in dovecot_ldap.conf to vmail/vmail. Also I've commented auth the user_attrs field. Still Dovecot tries to switch to the uid that is defined in the LDAP entry. It took me some time to figure out, that the only way to prevent this is to set user_attrs = foo=uid,bar=gid or something like this,

All, I recently did a fresh install/setup on centos 5 to replace my older courier-imap and all seemed to go well until today I started to notice that it simply hangs. I use thunderbird and squirrel mail and after a while it seems like I"m simply rejected. I'm almost guessing that it has to do with the session timing out and then dovecot is unwilling or unable to renew the session. I

Hello, I'm using a OpenLDAP server to store mail users infos like maildir location and password. This server is running on a separate machine and I'd like to protect the connection to it by using SSL/TLS. The server is configured so that it offers ldaps and it works with other clients. But I haven't found how to configure dovecot to use ldaps. Would someone please direct me to the

Hi Guys, I've been trying to get this to work for 3 days now, but no luck. I have Dovecot set with an Active Directory back-end. Everything is working properly but I can't get user specific quotas.I tried with both 1.0.13 and 1.0-rc7. All users have the same quota which is set in dovecot.conf dovecot -n # 1.0.13: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf Warning: mail_extra_groups setting was often

Hello all, I've been googling for a workaround for this for nearly a week to no avail and I hope someone in the list can shed some light on it. I have downloaded and compiled dovecot 1.0.5 and applied the quota-warning to it. I have configured everything and it's working wonderfully, even the lda with the sieve plugin. This is my current relevant configuration: userdb static{ args =

Dovecot version dovecot-1.0.rc14-7 (opensuse) Postfix is using Dovecot LDA. I'm getting this error message, and I guess it's going to be a problem on my next task, which is to set up sieve scripts.
