similar to: Not receiving Local Mails

Hi, I'm doing the final tests before I migrate my 10000 users from RHEL 4 + dovecot 1.1.20 to RHEL5 + dovecot 1.2.11, and I'm having some serious problems with outlook 2007 clients disconnecting very often. In dovecot's log I see lot of connects and disconnects from these clients (as oposed to my kmail, that just connects once when I come in and disconnects when I shut it off).

I recently created Dovecot Solutions Oy (Ltd) company with two other guys. We sell Dovecot support, development, etc. I was planning on announcing this only after we get an actual web site, but since I already told about it in Linuxtag today, I might as well tell everyone. The upcoming web site should have some more details, but if you already know you want to buy something, let me know. :)

Hi All, Sorry if this is a dumb questions, but what methods are available for retrieving mail for a system user i.e www-data. Basically my setup is just a normal Dovecot-IMAP which is working fine for shell users, but I want to be able to read mail for system users via IMAP. Is this doable? Cheers

Is there any way to still be able to login/delete email via dovecot-imap when the user's filesystem quota is exceeded? We just moved from courier where this was still possible but now a user over quota can login but cannot get a list of messages and the logs show this: May 27 10:24:45 pop1.gwtc.net dovecot: POP3(cody at howaboutnow.net) [64.251.165.209]:

I get dovecot to work and answer when telnet to 110 both local and from another computer. But it shows nothing in the log files except it's running.

We're using roundcube as a method of access to a read-only email archive served via imap/dovecot. I was thinking of disabling outgoing mails by fiddling with the roundcube code, but thought it might be possible to disable the outgoing functionality from dovecot? /Per Jessen, Z?rich

Having enabled shared mailboxes - is there a way to provide access to all users' mailboxes by a given user? Instead of having to manually provide ACL rights to every mailbox of every user? -- Daniel

Just made the leap from 1.2 to 2.0.6 - and several maddening config typos I think I have a working system again! Getting closer to converting from maildir to mdbox, but first...

I used to filter my mail through gmail with the following sieve rule. if not header :contains "X-Forwarded-To" "bmihulka at hulkster.net"{ redirect "bmihulka at gmail.com"; } With the gmail account set to forward to bmihulka at hulkster.net After upgrading to dovecot 1.2.9 and postfix 2.7.0 from whatever was with debian etch. I get a forwarding loop error. I

Hi all, storing e-mails (using postfix) via dovecot-lda fails and I assume this is related with a auth_socket configuration problem. But I am at a dead end, so perhaps anybody has got a hint for me: This is dovecot-2.0.8 on Solaris 10: 10-auth.conf and its include: ----------------------------- ... userdb { driver = static args = uid=104 gid=104 home=/some/path/%u } Relevant parts of

Greetings list. Pardon the ignorance. I am working on CentOS 5.2. Unfortunately the repo version of Dovecot is 1.0.X. This works fine mind you but it doesn't have ORDEREDSUBJECT Threading support, which I need. I downloaded 2.0.11 and built from source, but now I don't see any Threading support, not even REFERENCES. I looked to see if I was missing a ./configure option but if I am, it

Hello, I've upgraded from dovecot 1.2.x with sieve to dovecot 2.0.11 with sieve. I've noticed that folders are no more created at delivery time now. I've read that I have to do two things: lda_mailbox_autocreate = yes in dovecot.conf and fileinto :create in the sieve script. Now the error message I receive is: error: unknown tagged argument ':create' for the fileinto

mail_location setting has started becoming a bit bloaty. I'm not actually even sure why I've kept adding more parameters to it rather than just adding new settings. It's also caused confusion, because people try things like: mail_location = mbox:/var/mail/%u mail_location = mbox:INBOX=/var/mail/%u Although the first one has been giving ok enough error message for a long time now and

Hi all I am missing something on the the pop3 "leave messages" rationale. Although the UIDL feature solves for the MUA the problem "whch mails should be downloaded", how the duration that these mails should be kept on server, say 10 days for one MUA and 20 days for another MUA for the same account, is resolved on the server? thanks in advance -- ????????? ???????????
