In the process of migrating to Dovecot 1.0beta3, any tips or step-by-step instructions that might relate to Solaris 9. Thanks Bertrand Leboeuf leboeuf at emt.inrs.ca

http://dovecot.org/test/ I've still lots of mails in my INBOX and in this list that I should be looking into.. But here's a release that fixes at least some things. Maybe I'll make another one tomorrow.. Most importantly keyword code was changed a lot. It's now faster and less buggy. The keywords are also finally written into mbox, and keyword changes in the mbox are picked up.

Hi, We switched from dovecot 0.99.something to 1.0-stable (on FreeBSD 4.10) a few days ago and have been seeing many errors and one corrupted mailbox so far. Almost everyone uses mbox format, and most users primarily use SquirrelMail; I use Apple Mail and Thunderbird, as well as accessing the mailboxes locally with Mutt, and have not noted any visible problems. There have been several of

I'm trying to convert from an old Dovecot (1.0.15) and mbox to a new Dovecot and maildir. I'm running into several problems with dsync which are causing my mboxes not to convert. If I use LAYOUT=fs (as I'd prefer) I get an error because I have a mailbox called "subscriptions", and none of my messages convert. Is there a way to get dovecot to put its own metadata in

Hi, I'm trying to migrate a user from Outlook.com IMAP to Dovecot. I'm using a setup similar to that on http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/Dsync: imapc_host = imap-mail.outlook.com imapc_user = [...]@hotmail.com imapc_password = [...] imapc_features = rfc822.size fetch-headers mail_prefetch_count = 20 imapc_port = 993 imapc_ssl = imaps imapc_ssl_verify = yes ssl_client_ca_dir =

By default FreeBSD 7.0 shipped with the sysctls set to: kern.maxfiles: 12328 kern.maxfilesperproc: 11095 We recently bumped up against these limits in an unfortunate way and we are going to raise them. I have some questions: * why are the numbers set the way they are? They aren't round numbers, they aren't powers of 2. But they were arrived at somehow with planning and thought

Can anyone give me an idea of whether or not dovecot-lda can solve the following issue: We seem to have constantly-corrupting dovecot* files for people who fit one (or more) of the following categories: 1) 1000+ message inboxes; 2) multiple clients simultaneously checking mail; 3) people receiving a lot of mail, and/or the server receiving and trying to deliver a single message to all users at

http://dovecot.org/test/ Now checks that field alignmentations are in indexes as they're expected. test78 crashed if it was wrong, earlier versions ignored the problem (and crashed with 64bit systems). Now if it's wrong, it prints error to log file and recreates the index. That means you probably should delete all dovecot.index files to avoid tons of errors in log files. Only mbox users

hello all, first off, a success story. after much testing and preperation, we've switched from uw-imap to dovecot. i am not kidding when i say that we have experienced an order of magnitude decrease in server load (previously load peaks were 40-60, now they are 3-4). so, suffice to say that the mail admins here are very happy :) one problem that has come up though is particular to

Hi, I want to be able to rename a folder using R, similar to file.rename. I want to paste " - done" onto the folder name. The reason for this is we run a loop on a large number of folders on a server and it would be nice for people to be able to log in and instantly see if their data has been processed so they can remove it. I have searched the help list but have not found anything and

Hi, I'm plotting PDFs and have a problem. If I have more than 8 sources of data the colours are repeated. These plots are used to remove poor data from the sets so it would be helpful if I could expand the colour range. Is there any way to do this? The plots are coloured by defining a vector colsVec<-1:(length(mzXMLfiles)) And defined in the loop for (file in 1:length(mzXMLfiles)) as

Anyone running Dovecot on Solaris, requiring only SSL connections, and servicing thousands of simultaneous users? Our past attempts to do so have failed due to dovecot-auth using up all 256 of its file descriptors. I say 256 since we are limited to that by the 32-bit libraries. We are looking at either compiling Dovecot in 64-bit and letting dovecot-auth file descriptors accumulate (not ideal),

Hello, I'm running load testing sessions. My System Under Test is an asterisk 13 with 16GB, configured with maxfiles set to 400 000. This system is supposed do produce simple SIP trunking services without transcoding. The box sending call to my System Under Test is anabled with SIPp. I'm banging on a 700 concurrent calls/50 CAPS limit I would like to improve, if possible. Tests are

We have a simple configuration so we could get by with this -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -s "SOURCIPADDRESS" -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited it doesn't scale well but servies the purpose. _____________________________________ "He's no failure.

Hi All, I just upgraded to the new 1.1rc5 from 1.0 that I had been using and it advised me to increase the file descriptor limit. I'm not sure how to do this. There is a command built into tcsh that allows me to do this called limit, but sudo limit 4224 doesn't work, and usually dovecot is started from the rc.local file if I recall right, and I'm not sure how to set this up from

http://dovecot.org/test/ Fixes: - Crashes in non-x86 64bit systems - Bugs in cache file header caching (you probably should delete all dovecot.index.cache files to be sure the bug won't haunt you in future) - FETCH ENVELOPE patch by Chris Wakelin (I'll try to figure out what to do with the list patch later) Known bugs left: - Thunderbird + maildir: moving lots of messages from

gccld passes -shared through if it's generating a shared library, but if you're compiling a program that needs to have its symbols externally accessible, it doesn't pass -export-dynamic through to gcc for the final link. The attached patch fixes this. I've tested with a small test case I sent Chris, and with Python; both seem to work. I also fixed some inaccurate comments in

thhis didnt go through completely the first time. I am a bit confused as to how this works. I created a local unpriveleged user (with /bin/nologin shell). i uncommented the line containing nopriv_user=ftpsecure and restarted vsftp. I am confused as to what is supposed to happen. Shuld the daemon /usr/sbin/vsftpd be run as root or should it be ftpsecure? Or is the account only used to

Can someone point me to some documentation on how to set up centos 5.0 as an iscsi target? I'm completely new to iscsi so need something basic. _____________________________________ "He's no failure.

Hi, Setup : Apple Mail 2.1.1 (752.3) on Intel MacBook Pro and Dovecot 1.0rc22 on Solaris 9/SPARC. I use IMAP/TLS. Problem : mails are stacking up in the Drafts folder. When I start writing a mail, it appears in the drafts folder, and usually disappear as desired when I hit "Send". It then appear in the "Sent" folder. Sometimes, a draft versions stays in
