Is any proven routine to migrate mailboxes from mUTF-7 to UTF-8 encoding? I've try to use doveadm list/mutf7/rename but have been stuck with nested inboxes. Say I have the next structure: INBOX INBOX.??? INBOX.???.??? encoded for FS respectively as .INBOX .INBOX.&BDYESwRA- .INBOX.&BDYESwRA-.&BE8ENARK- ?When I've try to rename ?INBOX.??? with doveadm mailbox rename -u me

Hello, I?ve got a strange misconfiguration where the following command: doveadm -f pager mailbox status -u spamutf8 'messages vsize guid' INBOX 'INBOX.*' ? fails with error code 68, saying that it can?t find one of the mailboxes. (It lists the user?s other mailboxes.) The name of the mailbox in question is saved to disk in UTF-8 rather than mUTF-7, but strace shows that doveadm

A small bug in the mail_log plugin: When I copy a mail from the inbox to a mailbox with special characters, the mailbox name is logged in UTF-8: [...] copy from INBOX: box=INBOX.Euro ?, [...] I guess the name should be in mUTF-7, like it is done when I copy the other way round: [...] copy from Euro &IKw-: box=INBOX, [...]

(This is about v1.2 only, v1.1 will stay as it is.) Until today Dovecot didn't care about mailbox names. IMAP RFC requires them to be modified-UTF-7, but Dovecot didn't try to enforce it in any way. Mailbox names in Sieve scripts should be UTF-8, but currently Dovecot doesn't translate them to mUTF-7 as it should. Cyrus also did this until the latest release (v2.3.13). Now that I

I'm integrating Sieve (the new one) and ManageSieve into wip/dovecot. Currently, this works as dovecot options because dovecot must be built before sieve can be configured and sieve must be built before managesieve can be configured/built. Now, the question arose what the long-term solution (in pkgsrc) should be. To my understanding, with dovecot 2.0, ManageSieve will no longer need to patch

Hi all, I use "doveadm mailbox mutf7 -7 $folder" to convert imap foldernames to UTF-8. If $foldername is not mUTF-7 encoded, doveadm returns "doveadm(root): Error: Mailbox name not valid mUTF-7: $folder" This errormessage is printed on stderr but the returncode of doveadm is zero. I tested with dovecot-2.0.* and dovecot-2.1.* # all right: $ doveadm mailbox mutf7 -7

Hello. I read on upgrading page that one can use UTF8 mailbox names for plugins. As i understand i do not need to convert UTF8 names to mUTF-7 and can use raw UTF8 in plugins section, e.g.: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf ... plugin { ... # Autocreate \Spam folder autocreate = ???? autosubscribe = ???? ... But what about sieve scripts and other configuration sections: 1. Do i need to convert UTF8

We are running into a situation where Dovecot master is simply trying to do too much. It some situations, we are finding that there are times in which it cannot service requests. Restarting Dovecot seems to help in these situations, possibly due to the fact that it no longer has to manage its THOUSANDS of file descriptors for pipes to the many imap/proxy processes that it uses for logging. Is

STATUS in Dovecot 2.1.7 returns the UTF-8 decoded folder name in a string literal: . CREATE "INBOX.Euro &IKw-" . OK Create completed. . LIST "" "INBOX.Euro &IKw-" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Euro &IKw-" . STATUS "INBOX.Euro &IKw-" (MESSAGES) * STATUS {14} INBOX.Euro ? (MESSAGES 0) . OK Status completed. Is this

(Apologies for being offtopic.) The subject basically says it all...does anyone know of a tool to run a sieve script on a mailbox (in particular, Maildirs) manually? Ideally, I'd like to do it without adding a bunch of new headers to the mail. So, could I just do a find (or for-loop, if it was just one maildir) command and pipe all the mails into deliver..? Thanks, Neil.

Hey, as I understand from post [1], system folders with UTF-8 chars in their names will only be available for use with Dovecot2 and I certainly look forward to that, but somehow I was short of info about the current use of UTF characters like ?, ? etc. Should I just omit thinking about modified-UTF-7, avoid those characters for the time being and then with Dovecot2 create UTF-8 encoded

Some time ago I added the ability for IMAP clients to fetch messages' GUIDs using FETCH X-GUID command. Because of a bug it wasn't working in 1.2.0 or 1.2.1, but I've fixed it now. But now I'm starting to wonder: With Maildirs the GUIDs are the maildir base filenames, which contain host names. Is it a bad idea to expose them to users? -------------- next part -------------- A

Hi All. I want to know how filenames are changed by dovecot e,g more details on how it renames the files when a mail is read. For read mails i found that it appends an S. 1264579250.P22376Q0M765148.ecs,S=1161:2 1264579250.P22376Q0M765148.ecs,S=1161:2,S Want to know if other modifications done in file names in INBOX & in SENT (maildir/.Sent/cur) Thanks CoolAtt

Hello. I'm migrating from cyrus to dovecot and now after i converted mailboxes to Maildir. Some users already has imap folders with cyrillic chars. How could i autocreate folders with cyrillic chars? When i type something like: ... autocreate = utf8_chars autosubscribe = utf8_chars ... In logs i see that dovecot complains: Apr 05 16:21:43 imap(pavelkor): Debug: autocreate: Failed to create

Hello list, Today, my users have noticed, that delivery to folders with non-english names is broken. For example, if I create russian directory, it correct encoded and display into mail-client program and my webmail: Encoded: Normal view .INBOX.&BEIENQRBBEI- ???? This is part of sieve script, which routing delivery to russian folder. .... elsif allof (header :contains "Subject"

Guys , 1. What is the benefit of using Dovecot' LDA as compared to postfix's LDA? Will there be better performance? And along the same vein, 2. What is the benefit of using Dovecot's SASL as compared to Cyrus SASL? Is there better performance? 3. Quota Management ( Creating, enforcing, notifying ) - is it done thru dovecot or postfix or are both needed? Regards, mgomez

Dovecot 2.2.5 In selected state: C: 1 SELECT &#-&#/# S: 1 NO Mailbox name is not valid mUTF-7 S: * OK [CLOSED] Previous mailbox closed. I can verify that this only seems to happen when the mailbox name is incorrect mUTF-7. Things work fine if I access a non-existent mailbox: C: 1 SELECT non-existent-mailbox S: * OK [CLOSED] Previous mailbox closed. S: a NO Mailbox doesn't exist:
