similar to: problem with IMAP authentication with Thunderbird in local network

Hello, it seems that there is some bug in authentication cache code in dovecot version 1.1.alpha4 - after login attempt with wrong password the correct password also will fail. I can reproduce it very easy: $telnet 10.10.10.30 110 +OK Server. <861.2.46e6c679.jZ8QYpFmU8ZN6XIq7zPhkw==@server2> user testuser +OK pass pass +OK Logged in. quit +OK Logging out. Connection closed by foreign host.

I've just installed Dovecot and am running into a bit of a problem with it. I'm using virtual email accounts and everything seems to be working up to a certain point. Let me break down how the server is setup. Each domain belongs under the directory /mail so it's path is basically: /mail/domain.tld. Within each domain directory there are two sub-directories etc and mail. Under

I am getting "user unknown" when trying to connect to the dovecot server using IMAP. The client gets an authentication failed message and does not download mail. The host system uses shadow passwords in /etc/shadow. I would like to use the same passwords for IMAP sessions, so I have set the passdb driver to shadow. The system is Slackware, which does not use PAM. Here is the dovecot

Hi, i'm trying to configure my postfix to use dovecot SASL instead of saslauthd with rimap to authenticate my users. I've modified my postfix/dovecot configuration as is described on http://wiki.dovecot.org/PostfixAndDovecotSASL but when an user try to login it fails with the following log (debug_auth = on): Dec 12 15:07:53 lorien dovecot: auth(default): client in:

hi all, I'm having trouble using dovecot with mysql after upgrading to 1.0.beta3 on ubuntu. according to the mysql log, dovecot connects but doesn't issue any queries.. any hints what might be wrong or where I should look? -- Cheers, Nikl

I'm using an alternate password/shadow combo to authenticate IMAP users and I can't seen to get it working... I'm using: passdb shadow { args = /etc/dovecot/shadow } Can somebody please give me some hints on how to get this to work.... Thanks JB

I can consistently reproduce a crash in dovecot: Select 20 or more messages and copy them to a test folder. Go into that test folder and SHIFT-DEL the messages rapidly (holding down SHIFT-DEL works best) Just rapidly DELing them (even holding down DEL) doesn't do it (unless it's the Trash folder) I'm using the following namespace (in case that's relevant) namespace private {

I'm running all services: smbd, nmbd and winbind It's hard to run the file server as a domain member. When was a file server with DC was much more easy.

Hi list Im currently run debian sarge / testing. I upgraded my dovecot this morning on my mail server this morning, and my dovecot stopped working for my mail users email clients. I told debconf to replace the dovecot.conf (Baring in mind I saved my conf file). The output I was getting was as so: ====================================================================== Aug 11 10:09:56 mail dovecot:

Now most things seem to work (rc12 on Mandriva 2007.0), I've been looking more thoroughly at the syslog file. I see a 'syscall failed' at the end of a normal timed poll from the client. I wonder what it means. Sorry for the layout, it is messed up by the cut and paste. I have created the selfsigned cert and key in the /etc/ssl/dovecot/[certs,private] directories. Egbert Jan Nov 8

I'm having problems getting dovecot to set imap quotas that are defined as individual quotas for virtual users using mysql. I'm using postfix/dovecot 1.1.3, just built from source about a week ago. I've been testing using telnet and getquotaroot. when I define the quota in dovecot.conf quota = dirsize quota_rule = *:storage=102400 I get the following response from Dovecot:

Dear Rowland, This Samba 4 domain was not provisioned from scratch. Here in the company we had a DC Windows 2008. The Samba was provided to secondary DC. Then, the primary DC remains Windows, but will be removed this weekend. Samba DC will be the primary DC. In the file server file krb5.conf, I informed the KDC servers pointing to the Samba DC. Follows the smb.conf my DC Samba 4: # Global

We have frequent timeout problems after upgrading our imap servers from dovecot 1.1.16 to dovecot 1.2.11. One server acts as proxy only, and the other one is the "real" imap server". The credentials for the proxy service are stored in a remote MYSQL database. There were no trouble with dovecot 1.1.16. But now, with the most recent version, we get frequent login failures. It

Hi, I'm trying to setup a new mail server where postfix 2.3-20060405 would use Dovecot's SASL and users located in LDAP. It's with dovecot-1.0-beta5.
