Hi folks. I'm experimenting with the Squat plugin. I can execute search commands via direct interaction with IMAP, but I never see the expected dovecot.index.search index file appear in the spool. I'm concerned that I've misconfigured something that is preventing the creation of those indices. Is there a facility to have the squat plugin generate debugging messages so I

Is there any documentation for the plugin API? A cursory glance through the docs didn't turn up anything. Thanks, -Dave -- Dave McGuire Port Charlotte, FL

Hi folks. Is it possible to configure Dovecot to authenticate against one mechanism (i.e., /etc/passwd) for POP/IMAP connections, while providing a SASL authentication socket that satisfies authentication requests against a different mechanism, say MySQL? The goal here is to allow users to have different passwords for SMTP authentication and POP/IMAP connections. I am converting an

Hi folks. This may be a dumb question, but I can't seem to find a clue. I'm running Dovecot v1.2.9 and Thunderbird v3.1.7. If I delete messages using a different IMAP client (I also use an iPhone and occasionally SquirrelMail), I would expect those messages to disappear from Thunderbird the next time I start it or click on "Get Mail". In fact, they do...most of the

Hey folks. One feature I'd really like to see in dovecot is the ability to point it at a database (with a configurable query) and have it allow or deny a connection based on looking up the source IP address in that database. I run Postfix, and I've got it configured to use a database server for its smtpd_client_restrictions checks. Ideally I'd like to point dovecot at

Hi folks, I've got a few thousand accounts that I'd like to convert from mbox to maildir. I'm looking at using convert-tool from the command line to do this, but I'm uncertain about the command line syntax, so I hope someone can take a moment to go over this with me. I'm running dovecot 1.1.6 on this system. Mail accounts are not tied to UNIX system accounts, I'm

Using a fairly simple dovecot config (which obviously needs some max limit tweaking) we have problems with IMAP synchronization between thunderbird clients. Two TB clients in the same IMAP mailbox will, from time to time, show different views of the same INBOX folders, when TB caching is enabled. The only fix is to right-click on the folder, go to "Properties" and use the "Repair

Hi folks! I converted some of the spools on my mail server from maildir to mdbox. It went smoothly and the performance has been great. However, I have two questions regarding the process. First, I failed to notice the fairly low default mdbox_rotate_size, and I changed it in dovecot.conf after the migration. Is it possible to somehow make that change retroactive, to coalesce the couple

I will investigate this. If you don't expect yor firewall to handle 45K+ IPs, I'm not how you expect dovecot will handle a comma separated string with 45K+ entries any

Hi, We are currently running Dovecot v1.1.6 on our servers, and are contemplating an upgrade to 1.2, or 2.0 soon. We are wondering how many organizations are still running a 1.1 version of Dovecot, and if anyone has any thoughts on this transition. Have you upgraded from 1.1 to 1.2? What are your experiences with this? Have you upgraded from 1.1 to 2.0 directly? What are your experiences this

Hi List, Our company has several small distributed offices we would like to inter-connect with bridged VPN a single subnet (last example in http://www.shorewall.net/OPENVPN.html). We have SIP phones in every office (up to 5) so we can use SIP without any NATing and securely. Max theoretical simultaneous calls possible ~30, but we have ~5-10 @ regular basis. OpenVPN server would be in the same
