similar to: INBOX as mbox, other mailboxes as maildir

Hi, I already mentioned this on #vorbis, but thought it good to create a mailthread on it for easier tracking. One of the OpenBSD developers (claudio at openbsd.org) found that ogg123 crashes on his machine with a SIGSEGV while playing tracks with unknown comments in the tags. He's running with special malloc flags that make the OpenBSD malloc(3) extra picky (manpage available online at

Hi all, I've got a strange problem. I was just encoding a new CD I bought a couple of days ago (Muse - Hullabaloo Soundtrack) when I ran into a strange bug. After ripping track 8, CD 1 with cdparanoia under OpenBSD/alpha, I wanted to encode it with oggenc (latest version from the OpenBSD-current ports tree, (`oggenc -v` says 'OggEnc v1.0 (libvorbis 1.0)')). Here's the output :

Hi all, A few weeks ago, I sent a mail via the Philips website concerning their portable digital music players (Rush, Expanium, etc.) Below you will find my mail and the response from Philips. As you can read, they have no intention to support Ogg Vorbis in the near future. Perhaps if more of us ask for this kind of support, they will be interested in adding support. So, go to the philips

Hi, I was wondering whether anybody has managed to get Dovecot 1.0 to store INBOX as Maildir and folders as mbox. I've tried something like default_mail_env = mbox:/folders/user/mail:INBOX=maildir:/inboxes/maildir/user:INDEX=/indexes/user but it doesn't seem to work (treats INBOX as mbox). I'm hoping to move some INBOXes from mbox on local disk to Maildir on nicely-mirrored NetApp

Hi all, A while back (Feb 11) Stephen Commiskey sent mail to this list with the subject : "Seeking in a saved stream; or, Why isn't that sucker valid?". Stephen had some problems with streams he saved from the BBC that gave him all sorts of weird errors and resulted in his not being able to seek in his saved streams. I tried the same thing immediately (never saved an oggstream

Hi I'm trying to figure out how to set default_mail_env to support such config: INBOX is in '/var/mail/%u/' (note last slash at the end, %u is an folder with new/tmp/cur subdirs - standard maildir structure). Other imap folders are stored as files (in mbox format) in direcotry '%h/Mail/'. Please advise.

Hi, Been reading a lot of posts about dovecot configuration, but can't really figure out if what I want is even possible or how to achieve this. My setup is simple : One linux machine that collects mail from my provider and sorts them for me and my wife, where my email is stored in Maildir format in ~myuser/.maildir and my wife's email is stored in mbox format in

Hello, The Wiki indicates that Dovecot can do either mbox or Maildir on a per-user basis: default_mail_env can be overridden in userdb for each user. This works with userdbs supporting the "mail" attribute (eg. passwd-file, SQL, LDAP). How exactly does one do this for passwd-file? Thanks, -Jon -- Jon Nathan jon at rupture.net

In Dovecot 0.99, I recall somewhere I read it was possible for INBOX to be both a Maildir and an mbox in the same configuration (either automatically detected, or depending on the existence in a different location). Perhaps I was wrong, I'm not sure. Any way, I now became interested in this sort of setup: Most users have their spool an mbox in /var/mail/<username>, and then they

I migrated from UW IMAP/Qpopper to Dovecot using: # indexes on /var/indexes is faster: local, not NFS mouted default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/indexes/%u # Qpopper pop3_reuse_xuidl = yes The new mail is sent to in /var/mail/%u in mbox format How can I migrate some users to maildir and have them receive their emails either in POP3 or IMAP. (lots of big files to

Hi, I'm planning to migrate from dovecot/mbox to dovecot/maildir both using imap. I have read that when using the Maildir storage format, all folders are stored under the INBOX. Is this true in dovecot too? I want to have a configuration like the current: - new mail is delivered in /var/mail/USER - user folders are in /home/USER/mail I want to ask if this is posible in dovecot? Maybe

Hi, Is it possible for a client to read both mbox and Maildir formats from one server running dovecot? Without changing default_mail_env in dovecot.conf, Maildir folders are working ... they're located in ~/Maildir. No /var/mail/username exists. I have mbox format folders in ~/mail and have been trying to get pine to find them by adding pine folder collections. I always end up back in

Hi all, Is there an effort underway to support lyrics (or, more generic, subtitles) in Ogg streams ? I'd say the best place for such textual data would be in it's own stream (Ogg/Tolkien for all I care ;) with time-indices for when a certain word is said by who. This allows for karaoke style lyrics and for simple full text lyrics dumps. It could also be used for subtitling/closed

I was told to use dovecot because it was easier than cyrus. I just upgraded from fc1 to fc3. I am not sure what fc1 used but I think it was cyrus and it worked perfect out of the box no configurations to do. The new cyrus-imapd is not so simple so I got dovecot. I see examples saying to use mbox=~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u but when I try that I cannot map mail folders that reside

i'm setting up for virtual_users w/ maildir. i have in my dovecot.conf: auth default { passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/dovecot/imapd.passwd } userdb static { args = static uid=300 gid=300 home=/var/dovecot/mail mail=maildir:/var/dovecot/mail/%d/%n/Maildir nice=10 } } default_mail_env = maildir:/var/dovecot/mail/%d/%n/Maildir:INDEX=/var/dovecot/indexes/%d/%n in

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 all, I have a locking problem in a Centos 4.4 linux machine with the following config: dovecot-0.99.11-8.EL4 postfix-2.2.10-1.1.el4 I use virtual mailboxes with postfix currently I have dovecot with mbox as this: default_mail_env = mbox:/var/mail/virtualmail/%d/%n The problem is that mail is being delivered to mailboxes very very slowly (sometimes up to 4 hours). In my logs, I have tons of

G'day list, Just a quick question - I need to configure Dovecot to do the following: * check default_mail_env for the users' inbox in MBOX format * If the above fails, serve the user an inbox from a secondary location, in MAILDIR format. I have read up on Namespaces, however I can't seem to get this to work - login just fails when Dovecot cannot find the inbox in default_mail_env
