Hi all, After I posted yesterday, I'm still struggling with dovecot 1.0beta1 I installed it on openbsd with no problem. But I can't get it to authenticate plaintext on Unixware. I had to add two include files <sys/types.h> and <sys/mkdev.h> in compat.h because minor and major where undefined on unixware. I doubt that could fail... What's wrong with that conf: ##

Hello people!! First, thanks very much to Ejay Hire and to John Peacock for your quickly answer!! Now, I've dovecot installed, I downloaded the source and I compiled them. It's running ok now. But.....as I am new in all these issues I have some problems with the configuration. I have a user called "webmaster" that have a mail into /var/spool/mail, I want to redirect these

I'm trying to set up a pop3 server for a project for class, but it keeps giving me the following error: Error: Login user doesn't exist: dovecot Fatal: Invalid configuration in /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf And I have no clue what's wrong. I've look and modifying the dovecot.conffile for days and I am not having any luck. ## Dovecot configuration file # If you're in a

Hi, I'm trying to get dovecot set up better. I am using 1.0alpha3. It takes a long long time to move messages for some reason. It seems it may be a timeout thing, because neither the client or server is using any cpu time or disk i/o or network to speak of. (To move maybe 400 messages, it seems to take maybe half an hour, maybe longer.) With alpha 2 I was getting messages from

Trying to figure out how to convert an existing mbox system to maildir Below is my dovecot.conf file. Tried adding this at the bottom of the file and nothing happens. plugin { convert_mail = mbox:/vhome/%d/home/%n:INBOX=/vhome/%d/home/%n/INBOX convert_skip_broken_mailboxes=yes } What am I doing wrong? ## Dovecot 1.0 configuration file # '#' character and everything after it is

Timo, I got bit last night during my upgrade to beta1 by uncommenting the following part of dovecot.conf for my site: #passdb passwd-file { # File contains a list of usernames, one per line #args = /etc/dovecot.deny #deny = yes #} I did a "s/#//" over this block of code, thereby uncommenting the comment too. Then I wondered why beta1 wouldn't start for me,

Hi folks, I've updated my dovecot 0.99.14 with the last package (0.99.14-1sarge0), but it doesn't work. I've found that problem: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/80872 then I've removed that, and reinstalled first package (from /var/cache/apt/archives), and NOW it doesnt' work too :( When I start the daemon, I see in my logs: dovecot: May 31

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! I installed Dovecot from the FreeBSD port. I have about 20 users on this machine and used popper before switching. I get a lot of error messages like: dovecot: Mar 21 10:03:41 Error: pop3(xxx): mbox sync: UID inserted in the middle of mailbox /var/mail/xxx (37326 > 35874, seq=1, idx_msgs=26) dovecot: Mar 21 10:06:17 Error: imap(yyy): mbox sync: UID inserted in the middle of mailbox

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

I'm running Dovecot dovecot-1.0.r13 on FreeBSD (FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE- p10). Mail is stored in mbox format (dovecot.conf after the msg). Procmail delivers mail to subfolders under ~/.mail, locking using dotfiles. One folder in particular for one user has an mbox file ~/.mail/Cron. Quite often, I'll see that procmail processes are stacking up because ~/.mail/Cron.lock exists, and

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

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.

Hi folks. We're moving users from rc24 and 27 to 1.0.0. On four mailboxes so far we've seen these errors after the move (quick and dirty anonymizing follows): Apr 23 13:22:41 server.umn.edu dovecot: [ID 107833 local6.info] imap-login: Login: user=<USER>, pid=<9046>, method=PLAIN, rip=***.***.***.***, lip=***.***.***.***, TLS Apr 23 13:22:41 server.umn.edu dovecot: [ID

We are running Postfix 2.3.3 and Dovecot 1.0-RC27 on a Solaris 10 server. We use the Dovecot LDA for local delivery. Problems arise with looping mail whenever a user's .forward contains a reference to themselves. This most frequently occurs when a user sets up a vacation since it then puts this in their .forward file: \username, "|/usr/bin/vacation username" The vacation program

Hello, I'm testing gmail to fetch my emails via POP3 and I've noticed that on the server where I run dovecot, the emails that gmail take, are marked as read when I imap my emails with my thunderbird. As I've noticed that this is not true for the email accounts on another mail environment, I was wondering if anyone of you could sugged where I could change the behaviour. My
