I am having a problem with Dovecot and imap; users are not being able to empty their trash from time to time. Here is what I am running: [root at xxxx root]# rpm -q dovecot dovecot-0.99.13-3.FC3 [root at xxxx root]# uname -a Linux xxxx 2.6.12-1.1381_FC3smp #1 SMP Fri Oct 21 04:03:26 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [root at xxxx root]# Several times a week different users get the following pop

We just moved to a new box for POP/IMAP services. I rsynced /home and /var/spool/mail to the new box from the old with the archive switch. It went smoothly but I am seeing more corrupted index & index data file errors in the log than I normally do. I thought I read that Dovecot would rebuild these files after the user accessed them the second time, if corrupt. Is this correct ? Is there a

This one has me stumped. After upgrading from dovecot-1.0-beta8 to dovecot-1.0-rc6, I can't start dovecot from /etc/rc.d/init.d/dovecot. I can start dovecot directly from the command line (/usr/sbin/dovecot). I can still use /etc/rc.d/init.d/dovecot to query the status of dovecot and shutdown dovecot, but I can't use it to start dovecot. It just says "FAILED". diff scan of

Ran into a major issue with my setup overnight: We have a Win2K AD domain running SFU with a master and 1 slave NIS server. Our mail server is a FC1 box that runs dovecot and a MailScanner/sendmail config. The mail server is configured as a NIS client. The problem is that we lost power overnight and all of the boxes shutdown after the UPS's ran out of battery. After the power came back on,

Hi everybody, I have been long (for 2 days) trying, but I really need some help. I would like to use virtual static users. I configured my file as indicated in the documentation and then I created the following directory, with the needed rights (mail account) and leave them empty : /var/mail/virtual/<mon_domaine>.fr/toto/ I am not sure that it is the good method, but I understand it

I have a running server and would like to clean up a bit, and merge sent folders and trash folders etc. Is this best done via the mailbox alias plugin like mentioned here? Or is there a better way? I prefer to have one folder listed at the client, and not "Unfortunately it also means that some clients will download the same mails to local cache multiple times."

Hello, I'm seeing the following error on a server: File isn't in mbox format: /home/foo/mail/Trash The Trash file is full of the following at the beginning: ^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^ I've repaired the file several times, but this keeps happening. Would any of you mind offering me some insight into what could be causing this and how to fix it? Below is

Users who have their sent folder on the imap server report that sometimes a sent message is saved locally instead of on the server. This is the error from evolution: Error while performing operation. Failed to append to whoever at imap.server:Sent: Server unexpectedly disconnected: Unknown error Appending to local `Sent' folder instead.. We're seeing this with more than

Religious wars about which is "best" aside - some mail clients seem to default to using "Sent Items" folder for saving sent mail, and others (many) default to "Sent". Seems that in the interests of compatibility and "doing the right thing" (tm) that a symlink from one folder to the other name would ensure that either default would give the same result

Hi all, I'm having a few problems getting samba to pass along settings for various print options for all of our printers. Printers are set up using PPDs in CUPS, added to samba via the cupsaddsmb command and then added to windows clients via point and print. Unfortunately any print jobs sent from windows appear to completely ignore many of the CUPS settings such as duplex and print

Hi Timo, There was another thread (it has come up at least a few times in the past few years I've been lurking) on the postfix list about having some kind of automatic 'Save to Sent' option to avoid the users mail client from having to upload messages twice (obviously the only ones of concern are ones with large attachments) - once to send it, and once to save the copy in the sent

Is a RDBMS required for Dovecot to run in small (SOHO) environments? (Does it store indexes to the mail, etc.?) Or is it strictly leveraged for larger-scale environments? I'm asking, because the INSTALL says ./configure and make is enough for most...but as my previous post requested...there isn't anywhere that lists Required Packages/Software. We need to get that out there before 1.0RC
