Hi, I installed Dovecot on FreeBSD 4-STABLE machine and have a problem. MTA is postfix delivering to ~/Maildir, runs perfectly. Dovecot is configured to use plaintext auth, config file is at the end of this mail. When trying to get mail via IMAP, I'm getting the following errors: /var/log/dovecot.log > Aug 24 12:00:35 Info: Dovecot starting up > Aug 24 12:00:51 Info: Login: goshik

Hey, I am setting up Dovecot on Debian with Postfix. I am telling Dovecot to use maildir:~/Maildir but it persists in dumping mail in mbox format in /var/mail/username. Can anyone suggest ideas? My config file is attached. Thanks Kevin -------------- next part -------------- ## Dovecot 1.0 configuration file # Default values are shown after each value, it's not required to uncomment #

hi there... i HAVE practically searched in ALL messages from 2004 year, and haven't any luck with this problem, so I'm inserting here "dovecot.conf" content: ## Dovecot 1.0 configuration file # Default values are shown after each value, it's not required to uncomment # any of the lines. Exception to this are paths, they're just examples # with real defaults being based

Hi, I am running dovecot 0.99.10.4 on SuSE 9. I installed it using apt-get from the gwdg repository. The dovecot service is configured to start at boottime in run level 3 and 5. However, it dies immediately with this error (/var/log/mail.err): dovecot: Login process died too early - shutting down Starting the service afterwords from a prompt as root with the command: /etc/init.d/dovecot

I have a really weird problem. To whit: I compiled dovecot 0.99.10 on two different systems: a linux-ppc box running Debian, and a Mac OS X Server v. 10.2.8. It compiled fine on both. The same Maildir's are being served up on both -- the OS X server exports home directories to the clients via NFS. BUT the OS X box orders mailboxes this way: INBOX Deleted Items Sent Items . . . And the

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello all, I'm migrating to Dovecot from Courier-IMAP. I use Postfix with Maildir for delivery.

Hi folks. New to both dovecot and openldap. Trying to set up virtual domains using the wanderingbarque howto: http://www.wanderingbarque.com/mailserver.html Platform is RH enterprise 3. Only difference is I'm trying to use phamm instead of jamm: http://phamm.rhx.it/ dovecot doesn't seem to want to play nice with my openldap; everything else (postfix, etc) seems to work alright.

Hi folks, I can't get dovecot to authenticate properly against ldap/pam. I've been fiddling with it for several days now, to no avail. It keeps crashing with: Child died with signal 11 The system is Solaris9. Enclosed is a trace of dovecot-auth for a connection to pop with correct username and password and my config. Any help is appreciated. Cheers Benjamin

Hi, Busy with dovecot on a linux server with not very much RAM in it (512 MB max total). On this server dovecot will only handle about 12 users, with never more than 3 IMAP webmail users at a time, and a maximum of 2 POP3 users at a time using it. I'm going all secure later on, but first I would like your opinion on what configuration best to use with, say, max 5 users busy at one time, and

Hi everybody, I'm new to this mailing list, i need help about a configuration with Samba / Openldap. I have a samba server with shared folders, where users authenticate with a determined login/password.

I have dracd and dovecot up and running and trying to get the two connected. I'm using the FC3 rpms from callimg yum install.

I am trying to setup a mail server using Postfix and Squirrelmail. The mail server will ONLY use webmail for access. I will not be using any email clients other than Squirrelmail. I've got the server working in a testing environment. Could people who are dovecot savy look over the config I have set? I've only included the directives that are enabled with no comments. I want a

Hello and ... help! I am using Redhat FC2. I was looking for a simple POP3 compatible application package that would allow growth into secure mailboxes, and it looks like dovecot can fill the bill, and then some. I am a newbie. I scanned the Wiki but am as confused by it as I am by my problems. Fortunately for me, I don't need 7 different authentication schemes; I just need something

Hi, I am attempting to get dovecot up and running on FreeBSD 4.9..... Tried with the default config file and my own one (below) but when trying to login I get the following: Feb 10 17:59:53 cobain dovecot-auth: passwd(jamie): invalid password field '*' It seems like it is trying to read straight from /etc/passwd? I thought it called getpw(). Is this a common error and could anyone shed

Hello, as we all know from the big webmail-services like hotmail.com, yahoo.com, web.de and so on, several folders exist and nobody can remove them for a good reason, because some services rely on them: Trash, Junk, Sent. Can can't remove Trash, because every deleted message is just moved here. You can't remove Junk, because all messages recognized as spam is moved here. And you

Hello, I am fairly new to Dovecot, so please forgive me if I am missing something obvious here. I have checked the archived dovecot mailing list messages and have Googled for everything I can think of, and I still have not found anything to help me solve this problem.
