Qmail, when using LDAP, a user can specify delvieryProgramPath, or a .qmail file, to launch something like procmail. Qmail correctly setuid() to the uids set for the user in LDAP, as well as set up the common env vars (HOME, USER, MAILDIR). We moved to Postfix but found that it is quite lacking in the features supported when it comes to "virtual" users. No .forward, and if you set

Hi, recently I started using maildrop as a MDA doing lightweight filtering in a Postfix/Dovecot mail server combo. Only thing missing was the fact that maildrop couldn't perform user lookups against a user database that was already being served by Dovecot (for smtp auth in Postfix and for imap access obviously) in order to easily determinate proper mailbox location and home directory of

We're considering a move from Courier to Dovecot.? So far, looks like it's not too bad, but the most challenging obstacle is what to do about our local delivery.? Factors: 1. we use a lot of maildrop "features" that are impossible in sieve without piping to an external program (would rather not re-write our working maildrop scripts in another language) 2. would love to try

Hi, I?m using a multi-storage architecture in my email environment and maildrop as deliver command at mta. But to this deliver the mx servers mount nfs partitions - we need to use maildrop because many patches we inserted. How can I insert a piece of code at maildrop allowing it to update the dovecot indexes (which lib and/or function from dovecot I need to use ?) Best Regards, Fernando

Forgive me if this gets submitted twice. I had issues signing up for the listserv but I think I'm strait now. Hi all, I just started working with Dovecot and I'd like to use it for my organization, but I've run into a little problem. So far I love it and it does what I need. One thing we need is to be able to write to multiple mailbox formats on a per user basis (mbox or

Hi there, I'm using Dovecot 2.0.9-1 under Arch Linux. Currently, I have Maildir configured, and I move all my emails into dovecot by using this sequence: 1) cron starts fetchmail periodically under user manfred to collect my mails from various email accounts. 2) In ~/.fetchmailrc I have configured /usr/bin/maildrop as MDA. 3) In ~/.mailfilter (used by maildrop) I have extensive filtering in

Hi all. I'm making a case to use Dovecot over Courier and would like some feedback. I've searched the web extensively and have been unable to find any hard information regarding Dovecot's IMAP performance. I've got some pressure to use Courier but my gut tells me that Dovecot should be much faster. In particular, I will have typical users with mailboxes exceeding 10,000

Hi, I'm working on a system that have about 350K e-mail users and 100k users that uses maildrop scripts to make filters on their delivery. So, changing scripts by hand can't be a choice. I "googled" so much and I wasn't able to find any script that converts maildrop scripts to sieve. Does anyone knows where can I find it? By the way, does anyone uses dovecot-1.1-beta on a

I am not familiar with all the features that Dovecot has, but I am familiar with Courier IMAP using Maildir. Does Dovedot have a software based Maildir supporting quota program like Courier IMAP ? Can maildrop be used with Dovecot for quotas ? Courier IMAP has maildrop integrated. - If maildrop support is turned on in Courier IMAP, then a user will get a quota warning mail message

Hello, I currently use procmail without the deliver LDA but would like to switch to using deliver. I also would like to get away from procmail for various reasons. Otherwise I could use the procmail-patch from http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2006-July/014656.html AFAICS. I don't want to use sieve because it's too limited and can't see a similar patch like the one for

Hello, I just migrated from Postfix/Courier/Maildrop to Postfix/Dovecot/Deliver/Sieve and don't unterstand the right syntax for sieve :( I searched and found many small examples and many links to the RFC, but nothing was usefull for me (or i didn't unterstand it) I installed the latest Dovecot-Sieve (hg). Examples from my maildrop config: # Filter FROM if($E =~ /name at domain1\.tld/)

Hello, I'm having some problems getting LDA to work without userdb lookups and have a few related questions. This system has all users in MySQL, each user with unique UID/GID, no local users at all.? Installation is from apt-get. 1) If LDA is invoked without lookups, is it correct to assume that the "service auth" and "service auth-worker" can be completely removed

Running RC2 with maildrop and MDA: dovecot writes a positive quota count, then the negative quota count on messages delivered with maildrop. For example, message #1 arrives via maildrop: 4488236 1 message is deleted via dovecot: 4488236 1 -4488236 -1 This does not happen when the user accesses the message, only when it is deleted. The user never gets credit for deleting

I'm using maildrop for delivery, because I want to filter through spamassassin before delivery. Maildrop makes that trivial. It seems deliver can pipe (one way) to a command, but what is needed is to pipe: deliver -> spamd -> deliver which is what the maildrop xfilter does.

I need some advice about replacing maildrop with the Dovecot LDA. I need to replicate a setup that uses postfix+maildrop+spamassassin. We'll be using Dovecot 1rc13. In the current setup, maildrop reads a file called .mailfilter in each user's folder, then call spamassassin according to the user's preferences. The file is simple, and looks like this -- if ( $SIZE > 20971520 ) {
