I just switched from the default postfix LDA to the dovecot LDA, deliver, and am looking into what new features I have. The wiki references the trash plugin with imap. Can I also enable trash with the lda? Rick Rick Steeves http://www.sinister.net "The journey is the destination"

Hi! I'm running postfix with dovecot using mysql for user accounts, with Outlook being used as the IMAP mail client. I'm using a mail delimiter ("+") and mail automatically goes to a Spam folder as part of spam filtering with amavisd and spam assassin. It's configured so that folders won't automatically create; if the folder isn't there mail delivers to the

Running Dovecot 1.1.8 using Virtual users, multiple domains. My file structure is /var/spool/mail/<domain>/<user>/Maildir/ (cur, new,tmp,.Spam) What I'd like to do is add an ACL such that all users can read/delete/move mail that's in the spam folder, but not delete it. Am I going to have to create an entry for every single user, or is there a way to do it once, for all

Currently running Postfix/Dovecot1.1.8 with mysql storing the user data and delivering to folders as determined by dovecot using dovecot's "deliver" as defined in postfix's master.cf Mail location is determined by mail_location = maildir:/var/spool/mail/%d/%n/Maildir If I have an account user1 at example.com it works just fine. However, when mail is sent to USER1 at

Running CentOS 5.x running a postfix/dovecot implementation. Dovecot 1.1.8. I just ran a full system update in my dev environment, and now I'm occasionally getting: Mar 26 07:15:43 example dovecot: auth(default): worker-server(test222 at int.example.com,127.0.0.1): Aborted: Worker process died unexpectedly in /var/log/maillog.

Hi! I'm currently running Dovecot 1.1.8 on a HP server using CentOS 5.2 as my IMAP server, receiving mail from postfix, and also using squirrelmail as the frontend. As I look at upgrading the mail server, I'd like to change to a higher availability configuration (where the server can fail and I don't have to reconfig my imap users). For the SMTP that's easy, because I can

I'm running squirrelmail on top of dovecot, and noticed that some of my users display the quota (using the squirrelmail plugin check_quota) and some don't. So I did some digging. For those that do not display the quota, their account also doesn't provide any data with: . getquotaroot inbox * QUOTAROOT "inbox" . OK Getquotaroot completed. When I check the account

I'm trying to follow the instructions from: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Expire for the BDB backend. Everything is set up as indicated, but when I run: dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool I get back: Error: read(/var/run/dovecot/dict-server) failed: Remote disconnected I'm sure it's something simple....

Dovecot 1.1.8-0_85.el5 I'm seeing this set of messages repeat every 15 min. My best guess is the user tried to delete an imap folder and is failing?

There is a bug in ocfs2 1.4 if you are using it you should be looking for upgrading to ocfs2 1.6 I have several performance problens with ocfs2 but now i guess the problem is the webmail client that we are using. I have several post here about it. I will write a new one as soon as i found the solution. Anyway, why use lmtp over lda ? My setup have about 5000 active acounts all in maildir.

Hi! On behalf of team Cyrus, I'm trying to review and clean up old instances of Cyrus documentation around the web. It's a long lived OSS project and has left behind many old docs in its years on the earth. This is resulting in strange queries coming to us as people try to follow information that's years out of date. To this end I'd like to request removal of

I'm having problems getting dovecot to set imap quotas that are defined as individual quotas for virtual users using mysql. I'm using postfix/dovecot 1.1.3, just built from source about a week ago.
