Hi, I'd like to create a shared folder to be used with an Outlook client and a Thunderbird client. We're currently using mboxes. I've read the documentation here about creating a shared folder: https://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared It doesn't make reference to how to do this using mbox format. Is it possible? Should we convert to Maildir? Perhaps there's a way to

Our installation currently uses an old version of UW-IMAP. Instead of upgrading to the latest version, we're in the process of testing dovecot 1.0.13 on a Solaris 9 machine (using a different set of network ports of course so both the old and new systems can coexist during testing). We've been asking selected users to switch from UW-IMAP to dovecot in order to test various clients

Good morning! I run an imap-only Ubuntu 8.04 mail server with dovecot 1.2 and pam_ldap, so all my users are posix users. No virtual user or domain, no sql so far. I am setting up shared folders with "namespace shared". I got no errors upon restarting the service, but I get no shared folders listing. As per the wiki http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared I can use a bdb

Hello Community, I have implemented shared folders/acl using the 'file' driver sucessfully. Now, I want to move the shared folders information to my sql DB where I have moved all user/nets/quota information. I have read carefully the documentation (https://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared), but, as far as I can see, only the $to and $from (+ dummy) are handled in the DB? I

Is it possible to have multiple Listen directives in a dovecot configuration file for the same protocol? I am running dovecot-1.2.11 and I want to be able to use the "standard port" as well as a test port: protocol imap { listen = *:143 listen = *:10143 ssl_listen = *:993 ssl_listen = *:10993 for example. Or is this more preferably done by pointing

Howdy folks! I've been trying to research how to (or if possible at all) implement public folders using the namespace feature on a server with multiple virtual domains. After about an hour of looking around I'm a little confused. :) I guess there are two questions: 1) Is it possible / does it work? 2) If yes, does anyone have a sample configuration or write-up of How You Did It[TM] to

Hello everyone. I'm new to dovecot and I'm setting up a server for one domain only. I have not yet decided whether I will be using one uid per user or one uid for all of them. What are the steps for correctly setting up shared folders with acls if I choose one uid per user? What advantages or disadvantages has setting one uid for all users vs one uid per user, considering I wish to

Greetings Using FC7, dovecot-1.0.3-6.fc6 and maildir I have a recurring problem with permissions. We have a (real) account on the system called "custs". Within the email account for custs there exists some 300 folders, one for each customer. This worked okay originally with mbox. Everyone had access to their own email folders and they all had access to the "custs"

We had a user quit recently. Three days ago I copied his entire Maildir folder to another user to that user's Maildir/.JoesEmail. I changed ownership and made the permission 'chmod -R og-rwx .', just like all the other files/directories of the new owner. This didn't work to show the new folder. Today, in his Thunderbird client, I subscribed to the 'JoesEmail' folder. I
