I've just updated from 1.0.14 to 1.1.1 (Maildirs). According to <URL:http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.1>, "dovecot-uidlist file is in a new format. The old format is automatically converted to new one." When I try to delete a message (which moves it to the IMAP Trash folder), I get the following looping sequence of errors until I cancel the delete operation in the mail

My dovecot server seems to randomly begin giving errors to pop3 users who try to fetch their email. Once this begins, they see no more new mail, though the mail is in cur.

Hello, I've ran into problem with Dovecot and dsync replication. Everything works perfectly, including replication of sieve scripts, except fact that if user activates the 'managesieve' ruleset (I'm using currently Roundcubemail) on "mail1" host, it wouldn't be activated on "mail2" host, by creating symlink ".dovecot.sieve ->

Hi, Currently using dovecot 2.3.2.1 and pigeonhole 0.5.2 on two identical hosts. I recently noticed ".dovecot.sieve" and ".sieve/managesieve.sieve" are not replicating from one host to the other in either direction. Mail is having no trouble replicating on both hosts with dsync, it is only sieve files that are not replicating for unclear reasons. # doveconf -n host 1:

We have migrated a mailsystem to postfix/dovecot, using the courier migrate script, and we have run into a problem with dovecot-uidlist. The messages are not listed in the correct order .. This is an example dovecot-uidlist -file: 1 1177585200 49 22 1179084774.P7191Q0M321163.webmail1,S=8245:2,S 24 1179377823.P15932Q0M835219.smtp1,S=3462:2,S 25 1179668346.P23942Q0M941365.webmail1,S=4820357:2,S 31

I have a scenario where I have two users, one account (user1) with it's own Maildir account, and another account (user2) (which I wish to see the same messages) with a symlinked Maildir to user1's Maildir.? I.E.: /home/user1/Maildir /home/user2/Maildir (where this Maildir is symlinked to /home/user1/Maildir) Both users are in a group together (usergroup), and so all of the permissions

Hi all, Lets say I have a maildir which doesn't contain any dovecot files but has some emails lying around in it. If I add a message to this mailbox using deliver, dovecot creates the uidlist file with a single entry (the message that was just delivered). When I then log in to the mailbox, all the other messages are added into the uidlist file in the normal order (directory list order I

I'm seeing two bogus messages appearing my Maildir/cur directory.

Hi Everybody, I'd like to start archiving e-mails by moving them to a server with running Dovecot. I installed "dovecot-core" and "dovecot-imapd" (version 2.3.4.1) on Debian 10. One of a few configurations I made is to use Maildir: # grep '^mail_location = ' /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir I successfully moved some e-mails (at

I'm using RC15 on Solaris 9. The wiki indicates that when a dovecot-shared file exists, "Dovecot uses the same permissions and GID when it creates index files, dovecot-uidlist file, new mail files, etc." In my case, Dovecot *is* creating new index files based on dovecot-shared, but dovecot-uidlist and individual message files don't completely match the permissions/group

Hi, We set up a new mail server and moved users' "cur,new and tmp" folders only into new mail server from old server.In other words we did not copy and paste dovecot.index,dovecot-uidlist,etc into new server from old server because they were created automatically.After bringing the new server up,users(microsoft office outlook) complained their imap folders are missing.I investigated

Folks - Some time ago as I migrated to dovecot 1.0, I ran into all sorts of problems with file locks, and I tried various solutions. Apparently, in the process, I got a bit careless and removed all my dovecot-uidlist files. They're gone. My understanding, however, is that they should come back, but this doesn't happen. I've been forced to run with index=MEMORY in 1.0 for

Over the last year I've had a script moving old mail (120 days) into my annual archive folder. This is the first year I've done this with Dovecot, previously it was running against Cyrus. There's nothing particularly clever: a few conditions to match, then "move message to" the appropriate archive folder. There's one for every year from 2000 to 2015. 2015 is just

Hi, I have some problems with my own mail-client. To fix the problem I want to know if my dovecot-uidlist is correct. Here it is: cat dovecot-uidlist 3 V1207893082 N522 519 :1231251810.M890065P5870.SERVER,W=2188,S=2124:2,DS 520 :1231750443.M221593P17335.SERVER,W=2260,S=2211:2,S 522 :1231773105.M510336P24592.SERVER,W=2278,S=2229:2,S 523 :1231773105.M510337P24592.SERVER,W=2280,S=2231:2,S 524

Hello, I'm using Dovecot to provide an IMAP service to a small number of users and I'm seeing two recurring errors which look like they might be related. Environment: o FreeBSD 5.2.1 / Postfix 2.0.18 / Dovecot 0.99.10.4 o Maildir mailboxes Problem: On logging in all the folders under the users mailbox are empty. This has happened with both MS Outlook 2000 clients as well as

Experts, (Now that I am able to run imap...) Here's what I am seeing with imap, it seems to die in the latest nightly.
