Hi, We're seeing a new error under Dovecot 1.1.8 that we haven't seen before. Sep 14 09:00:10 hostname dovecot: [ID 684838 local6.error] child 638 (imap) killed with signal 10 This is being seen under dovecot 1.1.8, on Solaris 10u6. This is the only server we've got running this software. We're not seeing this on any of our other 5 servers running the 1.1.x series. Namely

Hi, Doing a first install of dovecot, trying to copy over some of the config settings from 1.1.6. I'm getting an error, I think from the ACL plugin module. This is the error I'm getting on the console: Error: imap dump-capability process returned 89 Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/opt/dovecot1.8/dovecot.conf And this is what is appearing in syslog: Jan 23 12:46:57

Hi, Just wondering for all you people using Dovecot out there. 1. What mailbox protocol are you using? 2. What version of Dovecot? Thanks! ************************************************************************* * Tom Goerger - Email/Unix System Administrator * * * * University of Minnesota Email: tmg at umn.edu * * Operations, Infrastructure and Architecture Phone:

Hi, We are currently running Dovecot v1.1.6 on our servers, and are contemplating an upgrade to 1.2, or 2.0 soon. We are wondering how many organizations are still running a 1.1 version of Dovecot, and if anyone has any thoughts on this transition. Have you upgraded from 1.1 to 1.2? What are your experiences with this? Have you upgraded from 1.1 to 2.0 directly? What are your experiences this

Hi, I'd like to change the log levels of a few of the errors that Dovecot throws. Our servers throw errors at the console above the 'Error' level, and there are a few that I'd like to change to 'Warn' so that they don't do so. Has anyone out there attempted this and can give me a few pointers? Or is there a doc somewhere about how to do this? Thanks,

Anyone out there using expire? At this point, I'm not sure that it's even running. It was touching the plugin libraries yesterday, but doesn't appear to be doing so today. The plugin directory wasn't explictly set, so I've done so now, but it's still not touching these. Anyone have a cf file I could take a look at, or any ideas as to what might be happening? Thanks!

Hi folks. We're moving users from rc24 and 27 to 1.0.0. On four mailboxes so far we've seen these errors after the move (quick and dirty anonymizing follows): Apr 23 13:22:41 server.umn.edu dovecot: [ID 107833 local6.info] imap-login: Login: user=<USER>, pid=<9046>, method=PLAIN, rip=***.***.***.***, lip=***.***.***.***, TLS Apr 23 13:22:41 server.umn.edu dovecot: [ID

Hi, I'm having a problem with a webmail client trying to open multiple IMAP connections with dovecot, and hitting a cap. I see from the error logs from this program that it's hitting the mail_max_userip_connections cap, but I'm not seeing this value as defined in the dovecot.conf file. Would this automatically get set to a certain value by default if it's not present? Thanks,

Hi, I'm testing out the dovecot expire plugin, and not seeing anything go into the database I've got set up. It's a mysql db. I've gone in and verified that the db is set up correctly. The socket is set up so that deliver should be able to talk to the db, but I'm not seeing anything in the expires table when I look. Is there anywhere that expire can log to so I can see

Hi Timo, Awhile back I'd written about making changes to some of the log levels that dovecot writes to to stop the process from writing these to monitor. I wanted to run a few changes by you for this, just to make sure these won't cause problems somewhere else. And to send this to the list, in case anyone else wants to make similar changes in the future. In the file

Upon rebooting our Dovecot server, I got these: Mar 16 09:49:16 peridot.tc.umn.edu dovecot: [ID 195972 local6.info] Dovecot v1.0.rc27 starting up Mar 16 09:49:18 myhost.mydomain dovecot: imap-login: Can't connect to auth server at default: Connection refused Mar 16 09:49:18 myhost.mydomain last message repeated 1 time Mar 16 09:49:18 myhost.mydomain dovecot: pop3-login: Can't connect to

I've added this to my dhcpd.conf log-facility local6; and added this to my syslog.conf local6.* /var/log/dhcpd.log It's still writing to dhcpd info to both log files. How do I stop this. I've googled but all suggested modifications I've made to the dhcpd.conf causes dhcpd to not start. Thanks Dan

Hi, I'm getting an error trying to make 1.2.11 with mysql drivers on. The output that I'm getting is: Undefined first referenced symbol in file driver_mysql_db ../lib-sql/libsql.a(sql-drivers-register.o) ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to dovecot-auth *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target

Hi, In order to periodically deal with corrupted index files in Dovecot, we routinely will remove a users .imap folder in order to have the indexes rebuild. This hasn't ever caused a problem previously. However, removing the user's index files seems to break the ability of the expire plugin to update the expire stamp correctly, or expunge mail from the user folder. This seems logical,

Hi. My goal is to use rsync to syncronize box1 and box2. On box2, I have a tapedrive which I write the data I syncronize from box1 every night. On box1, my /etc/rsyncd.conf looks like this: root@box1# cat /etc/rsyncd.conf max connections = 1 syslog facility = local6 [tmp] path = /tmp read only = yes comment = export of /tmp hosts allow = box2 auth users

I have posted a couple of truss outputs, but so far no resolution. Sorry for the slow response. I've been "fighting other fires".

We are running Postfix 2.3.3 and Dovecot 1.0-RC27 on a Solaris 10 server. We use the Dovecot LDA for local delivery. Problems arise with looping mail whenever a user's .forward contains a reference to themselves. This most frequently occurs when a user sets up a vacation since it then puts this in their .forward file: \username, "|/usr/bin/vacation username" The vacation program

Hi, I have a couple of people bumping into an issue with their imap process crashing - from the users perspective, their mail client (thunderbird) just stops recieving new mail. It still seems to be possible for them to read their mail using squirell mail. When it crashes, it leaves behind a log message like this on the server: Aug 12 15:52:25 fury dovecot: imap-login: Login:

Today I tried to import mail directly on the server's home directory on the server. I copied it directly. I didn't use the imap protocol. Dovcot didn't recognize these emails. I didn't display these imported emails on my page, recalculating disk quotas. It will not increase the used capacity. I try to send an email to this user, dovcot recognizes all the emails, and recalculates

Hello everybody, i tried to debug imap sessions with the rawlog feature and rawlog creates files but when i try to dump them doveadm tells me [...] Error: zlib.read((file)): unexpected EOF at [...]. I looked at syslog files and i see, that rawlog gets terminated with a segfault, e.g.: segfault at 10 ip 00007ff6da362596 sp 00007fffe725a080 error 4 in libdovecot.so.0.0.0[7ff6da2a4000+122000] Is
