Now most things seem to work (rc12 on Mandriva 2007.0), I've been looking more thoroughly at the syslog file. I see a 'syscall failed' at the end of a normal timed poll from the client. I wonder what it means. Sorry for the layout, it is messed up by the cut and paste. I have created the selfsigned cert and key in the /etc/ssl/dovecot/[certs,private] directories. Egbert Jan Nov 8

We have frequent timeout problems after upgrading our imap servers from dovecot 1.1.16 to dovecot 1.2.11. One server acts as proxy only, and the other one is the "real" imap server". The credentials for the proxy service are stored in a remote MYSQL database. There were no trouble with dovecot 1.1.16. But now, with the most recent version, we get frequent login failures. It

Hi, I keep having errors when I try to authenticate to my imap acount, and I can't get my email like this. Here are the logs when i try to authenticate using PLAIN or CRAM-MD5 : PLAIN Dec 24 22:06:25 domain dovecot: auth(default2): client in: AUTH^I1^IPLAIN^Iservice=IMAP^Isecured^Ilip=1.2.3.4^Irip=1.2.3.4^Iresp=<hidden> Dec 24 22:06:27 domain dovecot: auth(default2): pam(email at

I've installed dovecot 1:1.1.11-0ubuntu4.1 on my jaunty system. Access from the same host works well, but when I access remotely (from various MUAs and networks) I get *very* frequent disconnects. Authentication is fine, and I can usually open a mail folder, but larger operations such as copying 20 messages into an imap folder always get disconnected. I can reconnect, but I often get

Hi, I'm trying to setup a new mail server where postfix 2.3-20060405 would use Dovecot's SASL and users located in LDAP. It's with dovecot-1.0-beta5. On the postfix side, I followed the SASL_README and have the following in main.cf: smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes On the dovecot side I have the following related to auth:

Hi. I am trying to setup dovecot running a pop3 service for external clients (and intend in future to setup an imap interface on localhost only for squirrelmail.) Exim is delivering ok to local mailboxes, but I can't seem to get dovecot to serve them.

I am getting "user unknown" when trying to connect to the dovecot server using IMAP. The client gets an authentication failed message and does not download mail. The host system uses shadow passwords in /etc/shadow. I would like to use the same passwords for IMAP sessions, so I have set the passdb driver to shadow. The system is Slackware, which does not use PAM. Here is the dovecot

I have _almost_ got Dovecot working! One little snag... My users login using their email address as username. Each domain has their own LDAP subtree. Each user has an entry in the ou=users subtree of the domain subtree, and has a mail: field (inetOrgPerson) listing their email address/login name. I am trying to use auth_bind: when I login with jackmc at lorentz.com, dovecot should search for

Hi list Im currently run debian sarge / testing. I upgraded my dovecot this morning on my mail server this morning, and my dovecot stopped working for my mail users email clients. I told debconf to replace the dovecot.conf (Baring in mind I saved my conf file). The output I was getting was as so: ====================================================================== Aug 11 10:09:56 mail dovecot:

Hello, having difficulty setting up a 'secure-only' service on a non-standard port. Objective is to open a secure Dovecot service on an internet-visible port, while also using an insecure service for hosts on an internal network (so that one particular client which is not SSL/TLS-capable can continue to use the service). Checking wiki1 and wiki2, I think that port 143 can be used for a

I've just installed Dovecot and am running into a bit of a problem with it. I'm using virtual email accounts and everything seems to be working up to a certain point. Let me break down how the server is setup. Each domain belongs under the directory /mail so it's path is basically: /mail/domain.tld. Within each domain directory there are two sub-directories etc and mail. Under

Hello, it seems that there is some bug in authentication cache code in dovecot version 1.1.alpha4 - after login attempt with wrong password the correct password also will fail. I can reproduce it very easy: $telnet 10.10.10.30 110 +OK Server. <861.2.46e6c679.jZ8QYpFmU8ZN6XIq7zPhkw==@server2> user testuser +OK pass pass +OK Logged in. quit +OK Logging out.

I can consistently reproduce a crash in dovecot: Select 20 or more messages and copy them to a test folder. Go into that test folder and SHIFT-DEL the messages rapidly (holding down SHIFT-DEL works best) Just rapidly DELing them (even holding down DEL) doesn't do it (unless it's the Trash folder) I'm using the following namespace (in case that's relevant) namespace private {
