Hi all I am in the process of migrating Courier to Dovecot, am using courier-dovecot-migrate.pl<http://www.dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl>it works fine. I want to migrate each user as they login using post-login script (As i have huge no of users). We are using NFS storage, users are authenticated using mysql, User home directories as passed using variable mail ( usign mysql

Greetings - new to the list, so apologies of I'm asking questions that have been brought up before. I work for a large email provider, currently using qmail, vpopmail and courier-imap. We tend to make fairly regular customizations of the software, and if you folks have any knowledge of courier's code layout, you probably can understand why we hate working on it. Anyway, I am looking at

I can't find much documentation on the convert_mail plugin. For example, on the wiki plugins page, clicking on convert goes to <http://wiki.dovecot.org/InterWiki> which is not relevant. Can I use convert_mail to migrate from UW IMAP 2002 mbox format where some mail is in ~/ and the inboxes are in /var/spool/mail? Will it know which files are mbox folders, so it doesn't try to

Hi, (my first post to the list) I'm in the process of testing Dovecot to see whether it meets our needs to replace our current Courier setup which serves well over 100.000 mailboxes (pop3 and imap: mysql with NFS) So far dovecot seems pretty straight forward; however I ran into a couple of things that I'm curious about. 1. What's the deal with

Though there are conversion scripts, I'd like to give the convert plugin a chance. I have Dovecot 1.0.1 on Trustix Secure Linux 2.2 (Linux 2.4.27), and we had UW IMAP 2002e. Dovecot seems to work OK (e.g. I can add copy messages to it), but things break when I activate the convert plugin. The Wiki suggests convert_mail = mbox:~/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u # <--- locally changed to

Hello, I've recently saw a discussion on this list, about a standardised way of emptying POP3 mailboxes on the server - but no solution came up. Please provide a suggestion for the following situation: - I am running a stock POP3 dovecot server, on Fedora 12 (dovecot version 1.2.9) - passwd-file authentication via /etc/imap.passwd - users are virtual, sharing the same UID/GID; -

Hello, Can this be done? configurable number of days? Like to move from courier, but this is the only thing we really need to convince us to change, it is no good telling users to periodically delete trash, they never listen :) Quey

Hi all, I got dovecot working, but I would like to know when and what creates the mailbox (cur, new, trash, etc ). I noticed that when a client connects for the first time that mailbox is created or when a mail arrives for the first time (i think). I would like to give each mailbox a Spam folder, and possibly doing this automatically. Is this possible with some dovecot setting and not via

To all, I am using dovecot --version 1.0.10 and trying to convert MBOXes to MailDir's with the end goal of creating one folder filled with users old MBOXes that when they log in for the first time will be converted to Mail Dir format. I tried this and it did not work and gave me this output; <snip> default_mail_env = maildir:%h/mail/ #convert_mail =

I do realize from the Wiki that the formats are incompatible, and am looking at the Courier spec (http://www.courier-mta.org/imap/?README.imapkeywords.html) and the Dovecot spec (http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir) trying to see if there's any sane way I could try and write a shellscript. The pain here is the Courier spec, I think I lost a few brain cells trying to understand

Hi I'm getting Jun 11 13:12:46 "Fatal: Can't open configuration file /home/dovecot/dovecot-pgsql.conf: Permission denied this file have fulle permissions and has belonged to dovecot and root but still no joy what am i missing must be something stupid on this side Thanks for the previos comments about scripting I am swithcing to postgress for the mail env and will look at mysql

Hi I'm trying to use convert_mail plugin to convert wu-imap mailbox to maildir. I'm using dovecot rc 27 on Centos 4.4 linux. I have user INBOX in /var/spool/mail/ and mbox file in mail ~/mail When I do the first login with a test user (test1), the plugin convert all the mbox under ~mail, but doesn't do any conversion on the INBOX (/var/spool/mail/test1). After conversion those

Timo, Running v1.0.0 The convert plugin works pretty damn good! No need to mess with external utilities. One comment, though: Running here on OS X, I configured it with this convert_mail line: convert_mail = mbox:~/Library/Mail/IMAP/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u and mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir The IMAP directory was renamed to IMAP-converted after the process but the inbox (in

Convert plugin seems to have no effect with dovecot-1.0.rc26 and my settings. When a user log, maildir creation is successful, but no mbox conversion occur. New incoming mails are dropped into maildir, but I cant access those in Mbox file. I set the following in dovecot.con as describe on wiki. mail_location: maildir:/var/mail/Maildir/%u convert_mail: mbox:/var/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u Any

I have searching for the best way to tell if a Dovecot user is idle by finding the last time they have logged in. Right now the best way I can tell is to do something like "touch" a file in the users homedir via a post login exec. This seems like a LOT of overhead, to accomplish such a simple task, especially if your doing a lot of dozens of logins per second. Is there an

Happy Xmas, when using a post-login procedure the "verbose_proctitle = yes" has no effect. If it is feature then please explain else please fix the bug fi --Frank Elsner

Hi, I'd like to have the logins that the accounts do, saved in a *sql table, with login name | IP | datetime, for audit porposes. How could I achieve that, if possible?

The following program is a minor variant on the sample given in the README with eventmachine-0.8.1. I am running under CentOS 4.5 (kernel 2.6.9-55.0.2.plus.c4) with a ruby-1.8.5 RPM from the CentOS testing repository. When I run it, I find that set_comm_inactivity_timeout doesn''t do anything. That is, if I client opens a connection, it stays open indefinitely. However, if I comment out
