I have a DL360 G4 1U server that does a wonderfull job with dovecot horde,

openssl s_client -connect ms1.myserver.net:993
. login ...
but trying with TB /var/log/mail.log gets:

horde sync status ?
Hello all,
I had a quick look at the horde site and noticed that
horde is being advertised as, let's say, "smartphone friendly".
Does anyone know if the newest horde version can "talk" to?
smart phones in regards to e-mails ?
In other words, can a user owning a smartphone get his/her
e-mails on it apart from the webpage ?
Thank you,

ntp revisited (so what to do ?)
OK,
So what you people say is :
1. Run "ntpdate" during startup only once
2. After that, keep time with ntpd
Right ?

Mail migration troubles
Hello all,
OK, I would really appreciate your help on this.
I managed to do a pretty straight-forward and flawless migration
on dovecot from one domain to another.
However, I have this nagging problem with most of the thunderbird
MTAs. When I try to delete some "test" messages I sent to make sure
that everything works, it comes back with the following message on

an e-mail client for dovecot ?
Hello all,
For some years now, I've been using Thunderbird for dovecot.
I am not very satisfied with t/b so I thought of using m/s outlook
but then I thought that I want to distance my clients from office
products.
I have a newly created dovecot installation on a very small site.
Three nodes, all x86 Windows 7 professional with an ubuntu v14.04
server (x86 again) running dovecot 1.2.17.

dovecot user lost entire folder
Hello kind people,
OK, today is a bad day for me.
A user from a clients' site called early in the morning to inform
me that she lost an entire folder on thunderbird with (naturally)
important stuff in it.
I am trying to find the lost folder, but there is nowhere to be
found.
Any ideas would greatly appreciated.

dovecot rpm packages for CentOS ?
Hello all again,
Has anyone any idea how to get the latest dovecot version for CentOS

I did a quick search and found out that the official version of dovecot
for CentOS v5.8 is 1.0.2 (!!).
Any repos ? Any ideas :-) ?

Trying to populate dovecot with outlook contacts
Hello,
What the subject says.
I am trying, that is.
OK, here's the story.
Users very lazy. Don't want to write down their contact details
from scratch.
Here's what I thought :
migrate (export?) contacts from outlook to mozilla thunderbird.
Then find a way to make thunderbird "talk" to dovecot, so that
the latter can import the contact details from mozilla tb.
Any ideas ?

auth, partially resolved
Hello people,
After a lot of wading through the dovecot documentation (which btw, is
excellent !, everything lies under "dovecot/doc/wiki"), I managed to
authenticate a couple of accounts.
For starters, I want dovecot to work as an imap/imaps box and nothing
else.
So , I went ahead and created a "passwd" file with two users.

Dovecot SSL issues
Hello all,
successfully managed to make dovecot work with horde (http://www.horde.org)
and another MTA (SMTP/POP3).

not the rest of the packages, please read on):
There is this special page one goes, that check if everything is ok with
all the relevant software running along Horde. It's a php file called

Hello ,
Went to /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf, hunted down "ssl_listen ="

What auth ?
Hello people,
First of all a Happy New Year and best wishes to you all.
I've managed to setup dovecot v1.2.9 on a CentOS 5.4
system and I am now, trying to make it auth.
I would prefer virtual users and only want to make the IMAP/
IMAPS part work. I don't need POP3 or anything else. The rest
will be handled by another SMTP/POP3 application.
Now, I almost managed to make dovecot auth a
