Our office had a user leave. Another user is taking over her duties and needs reference to the departing user's email. I've copied that entire departed user's Maildir structure to the current user: mv olduser/Maildir/.* curuser/Maildir/.olduser I did change permission and ownership on curuser/Maildir/.olduser to be the target user. I did not bring over the olduser/Maildir/dovecot*

Hey!! It is now showing the former users' folders at the top level of the current user. Great! Perhaps dovecot just needed time to "index" the new messages? Anyway, Luigi's suggestion on moving and renaming the folders apparently worked.

I have a debian server with samba. I can no longer manage users accounts. I can't add, modify or remove them. This is Debian wheezy with samba 3.6.6. There is no ldap and the database backend is tdb. I usually managed users with smbpasswd, but it no longer works. When I try to create a new user: # smbpasswd -a blabla New SMB password: **** Retype new SMB password: ****

I think I'm progressing: if I create a brand new user, send her an email, it will not be indexed right away. I need to doveadm rescan / index the Inbox before. At the end of this email, a dovecot's debug log snipset (grep'ed on this user). In it I can read: "Debug: fts: Indexes disabled for namespace '' Can this be a problem ? Thanks doveconf -n output: # 2.2.34

That message is coming from the temporary raw user, not from the actual user. How did you verify that the FTS indexes are not created or updated automatically?

Help! I have been using dovecot for some years with great success. A little while ago, I changed my mail server from Fedora to CentOS linux. I reinstalled dovecot, and *almost* everything seems to be working, but one thing. There's *one* user I can't get it to work on without a workaround. The user is "newuser" and the uid is 1111 (actual name and number changed to protect

Hello list, i have updated the fedora core 5 samba package yesterday. since then the existing users can not access the shares anymore, but new created users can. the log says "User <olduser> not in 'valid users'", but the old users are of course still there side by side with the new user. the update was from 3.0.14a to 3.0.23. i am using the 64bit package and selinux

Anyone have any theories or experiences as to why for a certain user, some of his imap processes hang, and stay around for days and days? He just reported that his Thunderbird was timing out when trying to open folders, I looked on the server, and he had 3 old imap processes from 1 week+ ago. I killed those and his performance immediately improved. He checks mail with Thunderbird > 1.5

After upgrading to 3.4.0, I can no longer add new users. Any users that were added beforehand work fine. Any users that I attempt to create cannot login (error: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE). I was able to get one new user account to work (see below), but I cannot add any new users. The server is Ubuntu 9.10 running Samba 3.4.0. I am using: security = user pam password change = yes Updating

Dear all, on CentOs7 based linux w. different versions of Samba (4.6.x from CentOS repos, but also Sernet-Samba-4.7.4 and also compiled from source), "wbinfo -i user at domain.tld" returns different results before the first successful authentication of the user. Server joined as member to Active Directory, idmapping via tdb2. On first attempt, the result returns

Hello, I have a samba server (old - running FC6, samba 3.0.24-11.fc6) that authenticates against AD. This is all configured and has been working fine until this week. A new user has been added to AD, but cannot access the samba drives. All other users can still access samba as normal. net ads testjoin reports OK. wbinfo -a newuser%pass and wbinfo -K newuser%pass both succeed. wbinfo -r

With this settings I don't get the expectet result, still get wrong permissions on new mailboxes.
