Hi folks, I've updated my dovecot 0.99.14 with the last package (0.99.14-1sarge0), but it doesn't work.

Hello, I have got a problem ir dovecod.conf. I would like to use %d in default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%u/Maildir but %d seems to be empty. I need it for Postfix virtual domains. If I use default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/DOMAIN.ORG/%u/Maildir mail folders could be accessed. I wonder, where Postfix virtual domains need to be passed to Dovecot? more config info:

Folks, Sincere apologies for asking this again, but I'm just not getting this to work, and must be missing something here: My company's network is based around a Windows 2003 server AD, with several RHEL AS 3 boxes connected to it via samba (3.0.21c-1). ?This scheme works very well. ?I've set up, and have successfully been using a sendmail-based email system, too. My issue is

OK I finally found time to write this.

I've recently installed dovecot (0.99.8.1) from the Debian/woody backport at 'deb http://src.braincells.com/debian woody/' Previously, all mail have been delivered to mbox'es in ~/Mail by exim/procmail -- ~/Mail/inbox being my main mailbox. Whenever I attempt to connect with an IMAP client, the connection is closed and the following error is reported in /var/log/syslog:

okay, im far from a pam expert, but i don't see any mention of winbind there? It's my weekend at the moment so i can't get to my test box at work to show you my pam module using winbind, but maybe you should check out this page on my website, it's using ldap try and use this and replace any mention of ldap with winbind http://www.yourhowto.org/content/view/35/9/ or i have a

Dovecot is installed on the hosted FC1 server I have, it was working fine until yesterday when they had to bounce the server. I can login fine from Outlook or connect telnet <hostname> 110. But even though I can see sendmail has received mail into my %h/.maildir (via webmail's user mail facility) when I log into dovecot via Outlook it does not retrieve any of it. I tried from W2K

Hi, Busy with dovecot on a linux server with not very much RAM in it (512 MB max total). On this server dovecot will only handle about 12 users, with never more than 3 IMAP webmail users at a time, and a maximum of 2 POP3 users at a time using it. I'm going all secure later on, but first I would like your opinion on what configuration best to use with, say, max 5 users busy at one time, and

Greetings: I've been using Dovecot 1.0-test62. It has been working well. I tried to upgrade to 1.0-test64 but users could not authenticate. Both versions I compiled with: ./configure --with-ssl=openssl; make; make install They compiled and installed fine. The /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf needed to be modified due to the new syntax. 1.0-test64 with the new dovecot.conf didn't work.

Hi Perhaps I've been going too far OT in my previous thread or perhaps I just didn't explain my problem clear enough so forgive me for trying again. I have configured fetchmail to fetch my mail from my ISP's POP3-server. I have set up procmail to filter messages and deliver all non-filtered messages to the folder ".IN-catchall/" in "$HOME/Maildir" After sending

Hi folks. New to both dovecot and openldap. Trying to set up virtual domains using the wanderingbarque howto: http://www.wanderingbarque.com/mailserver.html Platform is RH enterprise 3. Only difference is I'm trying to use phamm instead of jamm: http://phamm.rhx.it/ dovecot doesn't seem to want to play nice with my openldap; everything else (postfix, etc) seems to work alright.

I successfully installed dovecot 0.99.10 on a fedora box using postfix 2.0.11 and when I try to connect using my mozilla mail client I get the following error in the maillog...
