similar to: Public Namespace & ACL & Virtual Users

g'day! I'd just like to share my experience with public namespace and ACLs. I know this has been discussed a number of times in the past, but there were no definite answers. dovecot version i'm using: 1.0.13 Got a public namespace setup in dovecot.conf as follows: namespace public { separator = . prefix = Public_Folders. location = maildir:/home/vmail/domains/%

Hopefully someone can explain/help me with the dovecot.index.cache file. I am wanting to move a dovecot server (v1.0b7) onto a new box running the same version (1.0b7) of dovecot. To do this I rsync'd the maildir files to the new server but when I logged into the new machine through IMAP dovecot reported: IMAP(username): file index-mail.c: line 105 (index_mail_get_fixed_field): assertion

Heh heh heh. Whoops. I've spent a few hours digging around in the source and nearly posted a kludge of a patch I'd written to give a kind of half-baked attempt at getting group-usable subscriptions files. Then I came across something in the source........ In the config file, do something like the following: namespace public { separator = / prefix = Public/ location =

I'm using dovecot RC6. I have a group named "cmpymail" with 2 users "jdoe at arinbe.com" and "jsmith at arinbe.com". I set up a mail folders like: drwxrwx--- 4 cmpymail cmpymail 4096 2006-08-13 02:21 cmpymail drwxrwx--- 3 jdoe users 4096 2005-11-21 13:34 jdoe drwxrwx--- 3 jsmith users 4096 2006-08-13 02:27 jsmith drwxrwx--- 3 fred users

Hi there, I have the problem that I'm unable to delete a subfolder (again) I created within a public folder. I've already read about configuring Thunderbird to delete immediately - which I did. But it still doesn't work. I delete -> the folder is gone -> I get a TB error message saying "The folder doesn't exist" -> after restarting TB the folders appear again.

hi! i would appreciate to have some comments on my below scenario: # from the config userdb static { args = uid=vmail gid=mail home=/vmail/%d/%n } namespace public { separator = / prefix = All/ location = maildir:/vmail/%d/all/Maildir:CONTROL=~/Maildir/control/ all:INDEX=~/Maildir/index/all inbox = no hidden = no } namespace private { separator = / prefix =

I'm trying to set up a public namespace so that a set of IMAP folders are available to all staff - similar to MS Exchange Public Folders. I've managed to set up the namespace correctly but I'm having trouble with the ACLs. The global ACL file is the only method I can get to work. All I want to do is to allow 1 user admin privileges to create & delete anything but all other users

Hi. Well, I've the next problem. I turned on the new attachment de-duplication stuff in the configuration. If I send an attchment between two accounts on my test system, the attment gets saved ion the configured mail_attachment_dir. But... if I delete it from the senders Send folder and the receivers Inbox (and of course empty Trash afterwards in both cases), the hashes and the attachment

I've read about one month back this list's messages. I've still 216 messages from this year marked as "unread" which I should look into more (+258 older ones). Also I've 180 "unread" messages in my INBOX also which might contain something useful. So those messages could still contain something that should be added to this list. Anyway looking at my current

Okay, I'm cruising the wiki, and it is at best confusing to me. Maybe someone on the list can help me out quickly? Here is what I have: dovecot 1.1.18, mbox format, currently no acl/namespace/etc. All works great. What I want to be able to do: Have an email account (or folder or mailbox) which can be accessed by several people (say 3) with per-user seen flags. That is, say 3 people all

Hi, dovecot 1.2.2 with a second namespace called "Public", mapped to "/export/vmailboxes/public", LIST returning \HasNoChildren: root at testvm06:~# cat /export/vmailboxes/public/dovecot-acl user=cite lrwstiekxa authenticated lrs anyone lrs root at testvm06:~# ls -l /export/vmailboxes/public/.announcements/dovecot-acl lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Aug 6 03:50

I think this is a bug. I'd expect that location %% variables are translated the same way % variables are interpreted, but apparently this isn't the case. virtual folders work fine, but my shared folders fail because of the . in the domain name. What I get is the following: # doveadm acl debug -u user1 at domain1.com.au shared.user2 at domain2.com.au doveadm(user1 at domain1.com.au):

Hi all, I'm currently playing with a setup which might replace my current cyrus imapd one with dovecot. Currently I'm stuck with trying to file messages that got to the user "lists" to the public namespace' System folder (public/System) with sieve. Dovecot claims "Permission denied", and I tried several debugging techniques to get the cause - without a result

Hello list, We are using virtual plugin for to provide users two additional folders: Company/all - it contains all messages in user's mailbox Company/favorites - here is flagged messages. Here is namespace part of config file: namespace private { prefix = Company/ separator = / location = virtual:/var/mail/virtual:INDEX=MEMORY:LAYOUT=maildir++ subscriptions = no }

I am wanting to set-up some basic sieve filtering on our Dovecot 1.0b7 box. Is this possible in 1.0b7? I'm completely new to sieve filtering so a basic dovecot sieve filtering how to would be fantastic! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Gavin

Originally I posted this question at CentOS forum 20.12.2018. https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=69193 Hi all, I am not able to mount samba shares after upgrading CentOS 7.5 to 7.6. I have been searching and trying to configure samba and winbind but no success. I find a lot of manuals and help pages about setting samba and winbind for machine acting as AD DC member but

Does Dovecot support public folders? I thought it may do via namespaces, but having searched the Wiki and the documentation, I can't find how namespaces are defined. I've probably not looked in the right place - any pointers? Thanks, Keith

I am a new dovecot user who recently transitioned my old mailserver to a new CentOS/Postfix/Dovecot system. I am running a simple configuration with about a dozen system users and Maildir folders. The e-mail setup seems to be running fine when I use the default local-delivery-agent in Postfix. However, I am trying to use the dovecot-lda instead so I can take advantage of the sieve functionality.

Hi Here is my environment: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.7 (Tikanga) postfix-2.9.1-1.rhel5 dovecot 1.0.7 I want to config a complete postfix-dovecot mail server. First I configured postfix to use procmail, its default LDA and dovecot for pop3 and imap. I didn't changed main.cf a lot, just myhostname and a few other properties. I didn't set home_mailbox.
