similar to: Index file (date timestamp) issue on OS X 10.6.2 Server

I've just taken over support for an OS X Server (v10.6.8) box, and am a bit new at Postfix & Dovecot. We're having an problem where, intermittently, dovecot seems to be bouncing messages inbound for some of my existing users. Here is the mail.log entry for a successful delivery: Aug 21 16:58:45 mail postfix/pipe[64094]: D68783AE0F75: to=<sblondin at eem.ca>, relay=dovecot,

Hi dovecot masters, This is my first post here, since I desperately need some advices from the dovecot community. I've tried to get an answer on the Apple Forums but til now no luck....here we go: I've tried to sync our users emails (Mac OS X Server 10.6.8 Snow Leopard with dovecot 1.1.20-apple0.5) via imapsync to our new server by using the masterusers authentication method on the old

Hi all, I'm a bit baffled. I have an OS X server 10.6.8 and everything was working fine. Now however I seem to be having some issues and I'm unable to find log entries to help point me to the error. I have an alias, sales at cirrusav.com, which forwards mail to myself and two others. This works fine most of the time, but on occasion messages are not delivered to one user. It is possible

I'm a nube to Dovecot and this list. Please be kind. ;) I'm running Dovecot 1.1.20 and Postfix 2.5.5 on OS X Server 10.6.6. I've moved accounts from another, older cyrus-based server (thank god), and used fetchmail to imap the existing mail to the new server. At some point, I developed a problem with my partition map being semi-ignored. Mail is stored in multiple places, and

Hi, i don't know. Is normal login_max_processes_count > 1024?? Our environment is about 1700 users (imaps + thunderbird or imaps+horde). The server is RedHat Enterprise Linux 5.2 User logins different in a hour: # cat dovecot.info | grep 'Nov 11 10' | grep "login: Login" | cut -d'<' -f2 | cut -d'>' -f1 | sort | uniq | wc -l 685 Logins in a hour:

Dear list, I am running dovecot with LDAP. Each account has email in form abc at example.com, and messages are stored at /var/vmail/abc/Maildir. This is an external mail server, and I would like to use a cron job to fetch all messages to an internal server which has slow internet connection. It seems getmail supports multidrop retriever which might fit the bill. However I could not figure out how

Hi, I just installed dovecot 1.1.11 and am having some issues. Mail appears to be delivered to the Maildirs just fine, but when a client (Thunderbird) tries to retrieve them I get this: dovecot: IMAP(info at aedisit.com): maildir_file_do(/var/mail/ > aedisit.com/info/cur/1251566335.V14I27a91M380600.kim): Filename keeps > changing After turning on mail debug mode, I get this: Aug 29

Hello all, I use dovecot11-1.1.7-1.4.1 with OpenSuse 11.1. Everything works fine, except the vacation with managesieve. When i send a mail to an address with vacation, i recieve back a vacation message, but i read an error like this into dovecot-deliver.log: Error: file_dotlock_create(~/.dovecot.lda-dupes) failed: No such file or directory And then the vacation is send any time, without

Hello all, I am struggeling to get my Dovecot SASL to work within postfix. I have used the configuration example listed on the main-site of dovecot and it basically isn't giving me any success at all. I am probably missing something easy, but after spending a few days testing and walking through everything I could think about I thought figured it was better to ask :) Hope someone can point me

Hello list, I am not quite sure whether this is a questions for Dovecot or Postfix. I have set up, virtual hosting for one domain (for test purposes) using a passwd-file as passdb and a static userdb (see dovecot -n at the end) along with Postfix in a manner described in [1], i.e. a non-Postfix mail store. Other than that I also do hosting for the canonical domain which is for users with a

I've been simultaneously learning about dovecot and experimenting with the 1.2.alpha4. To start I built an rpm under CentOS 5.2 from: dovecot-1.2.alpha4.tar.gz dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.2.tar.gz dovecot-1.2.alpha4-managesieve-0.11.2.diff.gz dovecot-1.2.alpha4.tar.gz dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.2.tar.gz and then setup with mysql to use virtual users. Mail-wise, it all works. :)

Hi All, Relatively new to Dovecot - converting from courier-imap. So far, I've got it working with virtual users (postfixadmin tables), and it seems to be working. I'm trying to get sieve working. It's not, so I tried turning up the logging, and putting it into a separate log file to get it out of the syslog for now. I can get the main dovecot to log, but I cannot get any log

Hello I got this error yesterday dovecot: Feb 11 16:07:27 Error: IMAP(dumontj): FETCH for mailbox Sent UID 7139 got too little data: 11112 vs 11160 dovecot: Feb 11 16:07:27 Error: IMAP(dumontj): Corrupted index cache file /user/dumontj/.imap/Sent/dovecot.index.cache: Broken virtual size for mail UID 7139 Does remove the cache will cure the problem ? Thanks

Hi. Just got this error (1.1.rc4), is it something to worry about? Corrupted index cache file /.../Maildir/.Sent/dovecot.index.cache: used_file_size too large This is a shared mailbox with concurrent access. In general, can that usage pattern mess up the index? I am guessing "no", which is why I worry slightly about the warning. Cheers, Anders.

Can dovecot-1.1 deliver work with static userdb? I'm currently running dovecot-1.0.12 and postfix-2.4.6, with virtual users' maildirs all owned by vmail and mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/%Lu. The following definition of the dovecot transport in postfix/master.conf works fine with dovecot-1.0: dovecot unix - n n - 1 pipe flags=DRh

i'll guess the solution to my problem will be something simple and obvious, because i know i ain't the first person to do this and it ain't all that complicated, but i've been staring at it for days and can't see what's wrong. new installation; os x snow leopard server; postfix 2.5.5; dovecot 1.1.17apple0.5 i'm trying to get SMTP auth working via SASL. using a

Hello again. I am trying to use a master user. The login works. However, a LIST command gives me only the INBOX. Is this to be expected? When logging in normally, I do get the full list of folders. (using Dovecot 1.1 rc3.) Anders.

I had recently upgraded from Dovecot 1.0.14 to 1.1.0, and then to 1.1.1. Ever since the upgrade to 1.1.0, I noticed that "plus addressing" has failed. In case I'm using a foreign phrase, this is the concept of sending an e-mail to "user+spam at domain.com", and having dovecot (dovecot LDA, specifically), deliver this to the "spam" submailbox to
