Hello, I have this user that lost an email, even when the server is set up to do lazy expunge. The mail server logs show that the message was received, the user also read it and he did reply to it. here is the mail.log Jun 29 07:52:48 mx20 postfix/smtpd[19289]: 0ACD81C443B: client=usxsl050.slb.atosorigin-asp.com[199.6.139.15] Jun 29 07:52:48 mx20 postfix/cleanup[20259]: 0ACD81C443B:

Hello, It has been brought to my attention that outlook users cant delete folders from their mailbox. They can move them around and erase emails, but when it comes to folders, they cant.. Any ideas..? # dovecot --version 1.1.7 # dovecot -n # 1.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.16.60-0.21-xenpae i686 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (i586) login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login

Hello, I've been running dovecot for over 3 years now and it works with no problems. I have it setup so that it authenticates users against Active Directory via LDAP and so far no problems. What I would like to know is if there is any way that I could deny access for users trying to access email via cellphones or email clients outside the company. I can

Hello, I am wondering if there is any way to support Gmail style conversation when using Dovecot? Someway of associating all inbound and sent emails..? I know that some clients let you display the emails in "conversation" which kinda does what Gmail does, however, it does not associate the Sent emails with it. Thanks for any information.

Hello, I've been thinking about the best way to achieve load balancing and making my mail servers highly available. So far I believe I have 2 scenarios: Scenario1: This should allow any to lose any of the servers and clients still have access to their emails (although I am not sure how the indexes would react to this and sudden disconnection) - 2 Dovecot Proxy servers, using a

Hello, Has anyone used GlusterFS as storage file system for dovecot or any other email system..? It says that it can be presented as a NFS, CIFS and as GlusterFS using the native client, technically using the client would allow the machine to read and write to it, therefore, I think that Dovecot would not care about it. Correct? Anyone out there used this setup?? Thanks.

Hello Is it a bug in lazy expunge plugin or am I missing something?

Hello, I am using dovecot 1.1.13 in debian lenny with exim4 and I have Outlook 2007 clients. I have configured lazy expunge plugin. User marks messages in INBOX for deletion then click "delete messages from server" then the messages are moved to .EXPUNGED folder which is correct but they are still marked with IMAP deleted flag which is bad cause when user marks another messages in

There's a bug in "folder delete" for lazy expunge, type "1 namespace", as descibed on https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Lazyexpunge When trying to delete a mailbox that still has messages in it, but that has no EXPUNGED/<name> counterpart, the process hangs after the imap "DELETE" command, and the following appears in the log file after a 60s timeout: Jun

Hello, I was wondering is I could use MySQL as storage only..? Meaning that no user information, other than the obvious email address associated with an specific email so that each email can be showed to the right user, will be stored in a MySQL database instead of /home/vmail/DOMAIN/<user> Would I get any advantages.? Would it be better, faster? Thanks

Hello, I got Postfix, Dovecot 1.1.7 configure to use pam and the pam.d/dovecot file is configure to use pam_krb5 module. Everything is working with no problems, but I am finding that the user must type the domain part in uppercase in order to successfully authenticate. So I am wondering if there is any way for the user to login as user1 at domain.com instead of user1 at DOMAIN.COM...?

Some filesystems are quite slow at deleting files, so I'm wondering if anybody is using the lazy expunge plugin to implement a solution where expunged messages are moved to a separate directory structure within the same filesystem, and later deleted as a nighly batchjob ? Assuming expunge renames/moves messages, and don't do a copy + delete.. Does something like this make sense ? -jf

Hello, I am trying to get dovecot to use virtual users and authenticate using PAM+kerberos against Active Directory and I am running into some problems. I followed the tutorials from the wiki page from: http://www.linuxmail.info/active-directory-dovecot-pam-authentication/ And here is what I get from the /var/log/mail log: Nov 26 15:12:27 housigma20 dovecot: auth(default): client in:

Hello, I am looking at the docs and I see this: Problems with deliver Namespaces are supported with v1.1 and later. With v1.0 and older versions mails can be delivered only to mailboxes specified by the mail_location setting. But in the dovecot.conf I see: # NOTE: Namespaces currently work ONLY with IMAP! POP3 and LDA currently ignore # namespaces completely, they use only the mail_location

Hello, Last Saturday i scp the vmail folder from server1 running SLES to server2 running Debian. Everything went ok and only have a few small problems, but the one to bring up is that some users cant see their new emails. The server receives the emails and puts them in their folder, but the client cant see them. One user's inbox shows last email was received on Friday, however, the

Hello, I'm configuring lazy expunge plugin to act as a kind of backup of my user's emails. I'm getting a little problem because a lot of my users use "move to trash" behaviour in their email client (most of them are using thunderbird which has no option to hide deleted messages and is a hassle working with mark as deleted with it). The problem combining move to trash

I turned on lazy_expunge and configured a namespace following the wiki[0] instructions for mdbox configuration: namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = . } namespace { hidden = yes inbox = no list = no location = prefix = INBOX. separator = . } namespace { location = mdbox:~/mdbox:MAILBOXDIR=expunged

There's now a plugin called lazy_expunge in CVS. Instead of EXPUNGE expunging the mails directly, they're moved to a mailbox with same name in another namespace where user can still copy the mails back. Also DELETEd mailboxes are moved to another namespace. See http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Lazyexpunge for more information. This is similar to Cyrus's two phase expunge:
