similar to: dovecot with vpopmail

Hello! I've tried to set up dovecot in conjuction with vpopmail, and running it under djb's tcpserver instead of (x)inetd. Btw - there was no reference to setting dovecot up using (x)inetd either in the manuals/faqs i read, though I didn't search all that hard. Anyway, back to my Q: vpopmail uses vchkpw as an authentication mechanism, and with tcpserver I can do relaycontrol (based

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks, I've installed dovecot 0.99.14 (last port on my freebsd system), and now I've to migrate from bincimap. My system uses qmail with vpopmail (uid/gid 89) and Maildir format. Well, now the authentication is ok, but when I try to connect to mailbox I receive an error like "IMAP command SELECT failed". My dovecot.conf:

Hi there, I'm working on converting my server from using bincimap to dovecot. I seem to be having some trouble with folders, however. Binc was set up like this : depot = "IMAPdir", /* Use Maildir++ style type = "Maildir", /* only Maildir path = "Maildir", /* default

Hey all, It seems that dovecot does NOT call vchkpw properly when using vpopmail-style authentication, I can only guess that it reads the vpasswd{,.cdb} files directly. This is indicated by the syslog log for the mail facitily which reads: Jun 30 16:51:30 [vpopmail] vchkpw-smtp: (PLAIN) login success blah at blah.com:24.17.153.137 Jun 30 17:16:25 [pop3-login] Login: blah at blah.com

Hi Timo, I love dovecot but I love also vpopmail and its functions for manage user limits (via vmoduser). Unfortunately in dovecot 1.2.x auth default set to use "vpopmail" is unable to apply this limits. Only if used with checkpassword limits works fine but in the dovecot.log only user (without @domain) is logged. So, based on the code of dovecot 2.0, I have created this very

Hi, I setup a configuration that will use sendmail with dovecot as imap/pop3 service and vpopmail as backend to handle virtual users and store email there. For this I created a dovecot.m4 as described in the wiki, it looks like: ######################*****############## ### DOVECOT Mailer specification ### ##################*****################## Mdovecot,

Hi all, I have a fresh installation of a Vpopmail 5.4.33 + Dovecot 2.2.29.1 + SQL As usual I followed the AuthDatabase/VPopMail wiki password_query = SELECT CONCAT(pw_name, '@', pw_domain) AS user, \ pw_clear_passwd AS password \ FROM vpopmail \ WHERE pw_name = '%n' AND pw_domain = '%d' user_query = SELECT pw_dir as home, \ 89 AS uid, 89 AS gid

Hello, i'm using in my installation qmail+vpopmail and now I have migrated from courier-imap to dovecot. Dovecot is very much faster with large mailbox than courier-imap. But I have a problem. vpopmail has a feature that allows you to "Disable non webmail IMAP access", many webmail using imap as if they were, and they are, a client IMAP. vpopmail give me the ability to

SoI had a hell of a time converting my qmail install to dovecot 2.0.5, so I thought I'd pass on what I learned. 1. When using vpopmail, do not use " --disable-many-domains". If you do, you'll need to recompile vpopmail without that setting and use the script found at http://qmailrocks.thibs.com/downloads/scripts/migrate-vpopmail-many-domains to collapse the tables. 2.

Hello, I have several thousand domains on a server. I'm doing now migration to Dovecot to replace courier-authlib. Some email accounts are in subdirectories that are automatically created by vpopmail. Example: / var/vpopmail/domains/0/domain.com How do I configure Dovecot? ###################################################### # 1.1.6: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux

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

I have a little problem in my configuration (vpopmail + qmail + dovecot 2.1.12 with LDA) my .qmail-default is this | /var/qmail/bin/preline -f /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $EXT@$USER -e | /home/vpopmail/bin/vdelivermail '' bounce-no-mailbox I receive al mails to postmaster for non-existent users (all my users are virtual and live under group 89 vpopmail) and this is ok

Hi, Does anyone happen to know the right strings to do authentication against mysql storing vpopmail data, vs using the vpopmail auth module? I'm trying to get up to both vpopmail 5.5, and dovecot 2.0, and dovecot-auth seems to reliably segfault on the 5.5 vpopmail module. I've tried downgrading vpopmail as well, with less than stellar results. I saw an old article about doing

I'm setting up a new box with Dovecot 1.0 beta1 and vpopmail. Normal operations works like a charm, i.e. vpopmail virtual can log in sucessfully using TLS. However, when trying to test dovecot-lda out of CVS, it is not locating the user: > *** Starting dovecot-imapd service... > dovecot: Info: Dovecot v1.0.beta1 starting up > dovecot: Info: auth(default): master in: USER 1

Hi All, I am using Dovecot 1.0.13 with Vpopmail (Qmail Toaster current) backed by MySQL with one table per domain (--disable-many-domains) . What I cannot figure out is how to have Dovecot authenticate to Vpopmail when Vpopmail uses one table per domain. Basically I need dynamic SQL in the Dovecot-sql.conf file. Currently I have: password_query = select pw_clear_passwd as password from

Hi! Authentication works, but default_mail_env = maildir:/usr/local/vpopmail/domains/%d/%n/Maildir/ is translated by the "imap"-process to /usr/local/vpopmail/domains//testerhorst/Maildir/ although I succesfully log in as testerhorst at elektropost.org. Is there a manual how to use dovecot with vpopmail? We have here: FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE, vpopmail-5.4.0 and dovecot-0.99.10.4_2.

Hello. I am having problems getting dovecot to authenticate correctly through vpopmail. I have used vpopmail for some time, and I understand how it works. vpopmail is using mysql to store it's authentication data. vpopmail's tools can access the user database just fine, and vchkpw is working so far as authentication goes. I took an "strace -f dovecot", in case it can help.

I can't get dovecot to ignore a certain directory/namespace when calculating quotas. I am running dovecot 1.2.16 with vpopmail configured for quotas. I use the dot (.) as my separator and my user structure is as follows: ../domain.com/user/Maildir for all the user directories I also have for each user: ../domain.com/user/Maildir/Archive which is a symlink to a NFS mounted
