All, I recently did a fresh install/setup on centos 5 to replace my older courier-imap and all seemed to go well until today I started to notice that it simply hangs. I use thunderbird and squirrel mail and after a while it seems like I"m simply rejected. I'm almost guessing that it has to do with the session timing out and then dovecot is unwilling or unable to renew the session. I

Hi, We recently shutdown our old LDAP server and repointed our mail server (dovecot + postfix) to our new LDAP server and ever since we've been unable to fetch mail. Mail is getting delivered, but we just can't pop it. We're using Ubuntu 16.04, btw. We keep on getting the following error messages in /var/log/dovecote: 2019-05-15 16:27:43 auth: Error: LDAP

Hello, My server is configured as follows: FreeBSD 6.1 OpenLDAP 2.3.27 Cyrus SASL 2.1.21 Dovecot 1.0.rc15 I have PostFix configured to use SASL for SMTP AUTH, which in turn leverages OpenLDAP to verify users in Active Directory. I do not have, nor want to in the future, local users in FreeBSD, so I've configured PostFix for Virtual Mailboxes. Everything is working and I'm getting

I am trying to get dovecot 2.0.19 authenticate users via LDAP (OpenLDAP 2.4.28) and using Wireshark to debug the process. It looks like the basic configuration of dovecot is fine, but it doesn't pull it off to send the right request to the LDAP server. First of all, this is how my LDAP-entries look: # ht dn: dc=ht objectClass: top objectClass: dcObject objectClass:

I finally managed to get this going but I have noticed in my case that: 1. I need to make sure the user logon name in AD and the samAccountname are exactly the same, case and all. It seems postfix uses the samAccountname and Dovecot the User logon name. 2. I also noticed that if the Display name for a user in AD is blank, that user cannot log in using telnet <server ip> 110. I am quite

Fellow dovecot users/contributors, I am building a POP3/IMAP4 proxy solution for an enterprise, where users can login with their common username and then they get single sign-on to all kinds of different applications in the backend. Some of these applications are SaaS apps like gmail. For gmail in particular, I want dovecot to solve the following issues for me: 1. be an IMAP4/POP3 proxy in

Hello list, I'm using dovecot 1.0.2 on OpenBSD 4.1. About every month, dovecot will just stall, without any error messages.

@Steffen Kaiser: Sorry I wrote that wrong. I did indeed *grep -v '^ *\(#.*\)\?$' dovecot-ldap.conf.ext* to get those results. @Bob Miller: And how would that look like? I added a auth_bind_userdn looking like this: *auth_bind_userdn = uid=%u,dc=[hostname],o=de* And restartet dovecot, no use. Any other ideas?

I previously had a static userdb and an ldap passdb. Everything's been working fine, both 1.2 and 2.0 - but now I need to support the nightly mdbox purge operation. I added the iterate params to my ldap configuration, but (I'm guessing) that with a defined static userdb it won't work. How should I setup my ldap userdb? Do I use prefetch? Current config: passdb { driver =
