Hi, I am compiling dovecot and I found dnotify & inotify. What does dnotify or inotify do ? do i need it. Thanks

Im curious if anyone is archiving emails and what they are using.

> Namespaces are supported everywhere now. Does this means what we can finally use "deliver" to deliver messages in namespaces?

Hello list, a quick question: can I use Dovecot's LDA "deliver" as a destination in Getmail? I.e.: [destination] type = MDA_external path = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver arguments = ("-d", "username",) Or is deliver not supposed to be called this way? What I'd like to do is use deliver in the same way I would have used procmail ages ago. Getmail

Hi all, I'm experimenting with the expire plugin and seem have run into a small problem. I am using Dovecot 1.2.4 on a test server. The config is taken mostly verbatim from the expire plugin wiki page [1], using MySQL as a database. See below for detailed output. Namespace "private" has "/" configured as mailbox separator: namespace private { separator = /

Hello list, I'm using Dovecot 1.0.0 on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE and applied the latest MANAGESIEVE patch v3 [1] which seems to have worked smoothly, i.e. all hunks succeeded and no compilation problems. Now this may be stupid question with an obvious answer, but I am at a loss at how to start the daemon? What's the binary called that starts the sieve server? Is there a special way to

I mean every single email sent and recieved is kept for a period of time (3 -5 years) separate from users mail, and emails cant be deleted. Ideally emails would have compression, mailboxes need to be searchable easily, and some mechanism whereby attachments sent to multiple people only get saved once, and emails sent to multiple people only get saved once. I could do something with

I have dovecot (with squirrel mail etc.) running without any problems but cannot understand how to get e-mail from a pop server into dovecot. I have fetchmail configured to pick up the mail from the pop3 server but don't understand how to get it from there into my dovecot mbox structure. New to mail servers! Thanks, Michael.

Hello, I'm about to migrate a number of existing users who have been using POP3 with emails stored locally in KMail's Maildir format into an IMAP solution based on Dovecot. Will it be possible to simply move all the KDE Maildir folders from the local PCs to the Maildir folder on the IMAP server running Dovecot and then have the emails accessible on the server, or will this most likely

Hello list, while fiddling around with the configuration so Dovecot's LDA "deliver" can be used by multiple users by means of Getmail (you can read about that in [1]) I always end up running into the error message posted in the subject line: Jan 15 00:00:02 HOSTNAME deliver(USERID): Can't connect to auth server at /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/auth-master: Permission denied

Hello dovecot users, I have finally updated the MANAGESIEVE patch to fix the currently known small problems with the protocol implementation. Also, I included a proxy implementation based on imap-proxy.c. This patch is designed for dovecot release 1.0.2 and it will not apply cleanly to the 1.1 versions yet. Change Log V5 ------------- - Applied patch by Uldis Pakuls to fix

Hi, I started experimenting with ACLs and found I could reliably and reproducibly crash the IMAP process when trying to create a subfolder of a folder that has has ACLs set. The folder is called "Sent" with an ACL of "owner lrwstipke". I wanted to be able to have certain folders the the user cannot delete but where subfolders can be created freely. Relevant information

Good Afternoon I?m really new at this and i don?t know if i?m posting at the right place. My problem is that our Dovecot IMAP is stopping from time to time with no info in the log, i just realize about this when our support person call me saying that the whatsup monitor is showing the IMAP4 process down. I can figure about this too by trying to get in our webmail Horde and i cannot login.

Hi List, last time i did a lot of packaging and installing different versions of dovecot 1.0.x (rc not included ;) )and all was fine. Now a have a little problem. In this case it was an update from 1.0.13 to 1.1.1 Sometime it happens that 1 user out of x (more than 100) got this standardmessage for ~1 or ~2 thousend times in his mailbox (mbox) for example: >From MAILER_DAEMON Mon Sep 18

Hello list, the scenario: A user has about 30k mails in his Maildir (all in INBOX) and needs to apply filtering. Provided he writes a working .dovecot.sieve script, is there a way to put all those already delivered mails through Dovecot's LDA and thus have the sieve filter rules applied? Or is there any other way to apply sieve rules to already delivered mails? TIA Andreas -- Andreas

Hi list, long(ish) time libvirt users, first time poster. Question: Is the default network (192.168.122.0/24, NAT) created by libvirt needed at all when guests are connected to the host's bridge device (and not the default network) I.e. when I have <interface type='bridge'> <source bridge='br0'/> <model type='virtio'/> </interface> in

Hello list, this may be off topic but it is closely related to my Libvirt adventures so maybe you can help me. I want to pass a USB device (a USB Huawei E620 modem) through to a KVM guest. Pass-through in general works fine and the modem is visible in the guest. However, the host still sees it and sometimes tries to access it (such modems seem to also be USB storage devices). This naturally

Hello list, I am currently playing around with a virtual domain/virtual user setup and thanks to the documentation on both the Dovecot and the Postfix websites things are going swimmingly (apart from an oddity I will post separately about). On trying things out with different newly created virtual users I wondered if it was possible for Dovecot to create certain IMAP folders on the first

Hi, Using Dovecot 1.2.4 and the new Sieve implementation in version 0.1.12, I ran into a problem that could indicate a bug in Sieve. The following is a simple script (as generated by Horde's Ingo application) to redirect incoming mail and also keep a copy of the message in the local inbox: if true { redirect "foo at example.org"; } if true { keep; stop; } Problem

Hi list, this probably isn't a completely libvirt-specific question but I'll try anyway. Please ignore if it is too much off-topic. On an Ubuntu (9.10) virtualisation host, running KVM and libvirt and several guests (Debian, Ubuntu, Windows Server 2003) in a bridged network fashion [1,2] I noticed that performing /etc/init.d/networking restart on the host completely cuts off all
