similar to: The usage of dovecot-uidvalidity* files?

Hello, I'm running dovecot-1.1.8/Maildir/ACL plugin. I sucessfully set up a Maildir shared between users of the unix group 'doveshared' via a public namespace, unix permissions and ACL files. The location of my public namespace is /path/to/public. I tried 2 sub-setups : First setup ---------- drwxrws--- 4 root doveshared 4096 Jan 30 13:39 public -rw-r----- 1 root doveshared

Hi, we use a current Debian etch distribution as basis for our servers, which are running within a vmware server environment. Our current configuration consists of a dovecot server with imap enabled and a ldap based authentication. Mails are stored using the Maildir format on a central nfs store. We do not use any virtual mailboxes. Since upgrading from dovecot version 1.0.rc15 (debian

My base concern may be illustrated with the help of that simple telnet session: # telnet 127.0.0.1 imap Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.

Hi, the latest HG of Dovecot 2.0 throws a warning when creating a new mailbox inside an INBOX with 'mdbox' format. It does however create the mailbox correctly. ==> /var/log/dovecot.log <== Apr 24 14:35:09 spectre dovecot: imap(tlx at leuxner.net): rename(/var/vmail/leuxner.net/tlx/mdbox/dovecot-uidvalidity, /var/vmail/leuxner.net/tlx/mdbox/dovecot-uidvalidity) failed: No such

I've got several users testing Dovecot IMAP at the moment, but some of them are also accessing their mail via UW-IMAP at other times. (I've warned them about accessing the same folder simultaneously via UW-IMAP and Dovecot!) In addition, we have special folders "AutoSpam" and "Trash" that pruned using Washington's "mailutil" automatically every so

Regarding the dovecot-uidlist header (first line) - I've tried to search for and figure out what exactly is meant by the "mailbox global uid" and once I do, how to manually generate the 128 bit hex variation of it? Could someone elaborate on this, please. How would omitting the global uid field, beginning with G, affect remote clients' syncing of mail? Is this field mandatory?

Package: dovecot-imapd Version: 0.99.14-1 Severity: important Hi, I think I've identified a bug in Dovecot 0.99.14 as packaged and distributed by Debian Sarge. I believe the bug lies in the original Dovecot source, not with any modifications made by Debian. Specifically, this bug deals with Dovecot's handling of message unique identifiers (UIDs) for IMAP clients when using the mbox

Hi, Courier to dovecot migration script https://dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl referenced at the https://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier page has a couple of problems. One of them is that the script could not process courierpop3dsizelist generated by courier-5. File format has been changed a bit to mark UTF-8 messages with an additional attribute. Is it safe to ignore such flag

Hi, I'm attempting to migrate a Courier-IMAP Server to Dovecto. I've followed the instructions in the Dovecot wiki and converted the indices using the provided perl script. Howevery I'm getting "UIDVALIDITY changed ..." messages in the logfile and some of the test clients list some messages twice. I didn't find much about this issue in the wiki. Any hints? -- Mit

Hi everyone I'm using isync 1.0.5 patched to do recursive folder listing and mirroring mail from an external party's IMAP server to a local Maildir, which will be accessed by Dovecot 2.0.9. In order to prevent IMAP clients from re-downloading their mail, when connecting to Dovecot, I'm busy writing a script to generate appropriate dovecot-uidlist and dovecot-uidvalidity files, per

Hey to all, is it possible to get rid of the "dbox-Mails"-folder when using sdbox?

I tried to disable courier-pop3 today in favour of dovecot pop3. Prior to that I ran: find /home -maxdepth 1 -type d | xargs --replace /usr/local/scripts/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl --overwrite --recursive --convert {} ( /home is hashed two levels deep: /home/a/a/aanton/Maildir/ ) After that, I got lots of errors like: Aug 9 13:02:40 postamt dovecot: IMAP(azenclu): Maildir

Still not quite got my head around what you are expecting to see. Presumably folders for other dates in September. Depending on how and why those folders were created they may not exist. I do note that you used an ls to show the folders, and I'm assuming from the config below you are using Maildir, so try an ls -a to show the hidden folders too (those starting with a .). This should show you

Hey again, sorry, but I have to correct me: Even with dot it's not working completely. The subscriptions file is not created and the dovecot-acl file has the wrong path, too. :-( Greetings, Hativ Am 07.07.2018 um 02:26 schrieb Hativ: > Hey again, > > I've found a working configuration: mail_location = sdbox:~/:FULLDIRNAME=. > > I use a dot instead of slash or empty
