Hello, I wanted to set my own time intervals for shutdown. {poweroff,return,paused.return}, so I had to change sources, where it has been set in a hard way. poweroff: Sxx\r return: Zxx\r paused.return: SxxRyyyy\r Solution A: Why not adding an info about these commands in a generic way and issuing shutdown.{poweroff.xx,return.xx,paused.return.xxyyyy} Solution B: Why not creating a special

Hi Timo, hi all others! In fact, I've only read one person claiming that IPv6 support opens up "too many backdoors" [1], but anyway, as I intend to run just particular services, please give me your opinion if it's insecure to have a dovecot server, which is accessed through a public IPv6 address... (or note just shortly what else could give a firm ground to such claims...) [1]

Hello, this is one more unfortunate case, when I run into problems with some non-standard configuration: if authorized keys file for user %u is /keys/%u or /keys/%u/.ssh/authorized_keys, I receive an error: sshd: Authentication refused: bad ownership or modes for directory / ! Whats the cure? I can't keep those files into /home easily... /Please let me know by cc to this mail address,

People, There is an imap client, which runs with user1 uid, but when its accessed to watch a maildir, whose (and its contents) ownership is user1:user1, this error occurs: dovecot: IMAP(user1): fchown(/path/user1/dovecot-uidlist.tmp, -1, 12(mail)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=1000(user1), group based on /path/user1) dovecot.conf contains this line: mail_privileged_group = mail

Hello, Perhaps you could give some information here or redirect me, because it was not clear while reading manuals: how can connection timeout be set for sshd? Problem is, when some system is hibernated and it resumes, connections are dead. Mostly I made a successful workaround, but would be nice to know... Also, which version of ssh(d) support df on sshfs? I hope, is not a problem to enlighten

Hi list, my thanks to developers of nouveau first: I wonder how you put it together this far, where there's quite enough to appreciate! This question I have: strangely I can get each of 2 cards to work separately for a dualseat PC by toggling on/off fbcon=map: kernel option (compiled with CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DETECT_PRIMARY) -- by doing so I can have each card initialized and start

Hi, After setting up a maildir tree with :LAYOUT=fs and accessing it with KMail and Thunderbird, various mail client-specific problems appeared, but, as I didn't try with maildir++, I would like to confirm here: does that matter for an IMAP client much if I store mail on server as ":LAYOUT=fs" or maildir++? Can it see differences? I would like to think, that IMAP protocol

Hello list, I observed a problem with interactive bash script executed by ssh: when I pressed <Ctrl+C>, ssh was killed on client side, but script remained active in remote machine and didn't receive signal INT. Using option -t gives no problem like that, but should it be perceived as a normal behaviour in case without -t? Please send a reply to my address too...

Hi there, let me just ask if you know some good way to set up user chrooting in such a way, that each sftp user has its chroot directory entry somewhere (whatever path) and gets chrooted there upon its login? Maybe such feature is planned? Thanks... K.

Hello all! My first question about dovecot turns out to be: what if I have something outside of dovecot, which sometimes moves messages out of a mail folder and other times into it? Does that make any problem for dovecot or indexing? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

If deliver gets run with a non-root userid like this: < | deliver -m path/to/NEWmaildir >, I wonder, is a connected IMAP MUA automatically notified, that the new message has arrived in the new folder? As I see from some experiments with Thunderbird, it has no problems with immediate notifications of new mail in previously existing folders, however, it has problems with the case of new

I found a post in this list [0], which says sieve scripts can be used to deliver mail as read. However, can it be done somehow conditionally, I mean, with a direct or indirect switch for deliver? For a nonexistent example, it would be simply < | deliver -m path/to/maildir -r > or maybe an environment variable could be exported to deliver sieve and checked there? (Still not sure if sieve

Hi, came here to ask, if there are any ideas about a possible Dovecot feature, which would allow execution of a specific mailfilter or other program after new message is *moved* in specified mail location? The practical benefit on my side would be, that there wouldn't be any need to do getmail cronjobs, which unnecessarily fill up logfiles... (primarily for easy spam learning and

People, where to read about how to make the most of the current Dovecot search capabilities, including squat and possibly also the related future plans?
