similar to: basic conf error? v1.2.11

We are looking at deploying several pop/imap servers to house the mail for 15,000 or more mailbox accounts. We are contemplating on the design and are looking at using MySQL auth (we already have a MySQL environment in place for our user auth to live) and proxy_maybe so each server can proxy for all the others and we just have a network load balancer distribute the incoming connections to all of

Hello list. I'm thinking to migrate the hole user db from system users to mysql. I already did it in a test environment, but something is annoying my OCD... I don't quote the variables username and password sent to the mysql server. I know, the mysql user that dovecot uses only has select rights, but it stills bother me, because its possible to do an useless sql code injection. Is there a

Hi, I've been running dovecot for many years, but now i've hit a strange problem. when retrieving imap there is sometimes in 1 of 4 imap requests a 4sec latency. * notes: - connected directly to the backends this latency disappears - removing a director from the loadbalancer(lvs) so i'm the only connected to the director this latency disappears too I would appreciate some feedback

Hello, i use dovecot 1.2.11 with auth by mysql. auth_username_chars = abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_@?????? for some reasons more special chars in username are needed. in fact the % char is meant.

Hi All, Our test users re-download the mail they've left on the server when they switch from Qpopper to Dovecot. Qpopper includes the X-UIDL header - X-UIDL: X8V"!E)<"!58?"!"9C"! - on read messages.

Hi list, This issue was raised here by John Fawcett on 12/02/19 but got no response. So, as I'm facing the same issue, I would like to try again: When using the vacation sieve extension, if I send an email to user.name at mydomain.com it will work, but not to User.Name at mydomain.com. Is there a way to make the user part case insensitive so that the vacation auto-reply is fired whatever

Hello, I'm migrating many accounts to a new server with vpopmail 5.4.33 and dovecot 2.0.11. I've already vpopmail 5.4.32 and dovecot 1.2.16 on others servers running without problems. With dovecot 2.0.11 my lastauth file is not updated. This file usually is update on any access (smtp, pop3, imap) with the client's IP, for every mailbox. Now it's updated only when a client

Hi I've added the apostrophe character to auth_username_chars however authentication still fails. I'm using LDAP with the following details: dovecot version 1.1.7 openldap client library 2.4.11 With auth_verbose = yes and auth_debug = yes set I see the following in the logs. Note the initial escaped apostrophe and the subsequent escaped escape in the filter! ----- start log ----- Jan

Hello I have a problem with lmtp delivery to usernames with '-' char. Everythong after - is ignored. when delivering to test-test2 the error message is. User doesn't exist: test I suspect this is a sideefect of auth_username_format = %Lu I have tried %Ln without success. Imap works without problems for those users. How can I disable this mapping for lmtp and use verbatim

Running dovecot 1.2.12 on ubuntu 10.10. Here is the problem: I have mysql backend for expire. I am using the dovecot-postfix package which creates /etc/dovecot/conf.d/01-mail-stack-delivery.conf which looks like this: # Some general options protocols = imap imaps managesieve disable_plaintext_auth = no ssl = yes ssl_cert_file = /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-mail.pem ssl_key_file =

Hi everyone, I am running into a problem when trying to use fts_squat in a virtual folder. Without fts_squat plugin the search (from, subject...) works in all folders. With activated fts the search on the inbox folders works expectedly well but any attempt to search anything in any virtual folder leads to the following error. Similarly when attempting "doveadm fts lookup". I also

# 2.3.4.1 (f79e8e7e4): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf Hello, we're using mail on NFS and the indexes on localdisk, with a director setup. (18K+ users) now to get more performance i thought to use the ITERINDEX option. however this has the side-effect on some mailboxes that it doesn't show the subfolders under INBOX. they seem 'disappeared'. Removing the ITERINDEX option fixes this

Hello, As far as I'm aware, email is case insensitive ? Dovecot however, seems to be taking offence at the fact that someone is sending mail to user at SOMEDOMAIN.XYZ. Postfix has no issues handling it, it when it gets passed over to Dovecot LMTP that I get log lines such as : Sep 17 13:48:22 ukc-vm02-mx01 dovecot: auth: passwd-file(user at SOMEDOMAIN.XYZ): unknown user However user at

I have recipient_delimiter = + in main.cf (Postfix). But deliveries to dovecot/deliver are still being rejected. It appears that the full email is still in the envelope (e.g. phil+howard at example.com which I want to be delivered to phil at example.com). Is that how it's supposed to work and Dovecot just doesn't support this?

Can anyone point me in the direction of a detailed how-to for setting up a postfix and dovecot (proxy) node with dbmail? In particular I'm looking for a how-to which shows dovecot authenticating against the dbmail database directly. The only example I've found is this one which requires a duplication of the user database.
