Whilst documenting LAYOUT=maildir++ under dbox, that got me thinking: Can we specify :LAYOUT=maildir++ with mbox? If I have it right, this should then remove the problem of not being able to have messages and mail subfolders in the same mail folder. So for example if we had mail location specified as: mail_location = mbox:~/mail:LAYOUT=maildir++ we would have files: ~/mail/inbox - file

I am trying out "mdbox" under Dovecot 2.0beta5. Looking in the "mailboxes" directory under the mdbox storage root ("~/dbox" in my case), I can see that the mail folders are mapped into filesystem directories. But Dovecot seems to put all the message list information ("dovecot.index.cache", "dovecot.index.log") for any given mail folder into a

Hey all, So I've got a shared namespace in dovecot where users can, via a custom control panel, share their folders into (which creates a symlink) in order to allow anyone on their domain to access it. I store mail in maildir. The issue is that when people share folders, they expect that when they make subfolders, those are automatically shared as they are contained within it.

Hi again, I just recognized a problem concerning subfolders after converting from maildir to mdbox. Thunderbird and SeaMonkey don?t show folders that are subfolders of subfolders. Have a look at the filesystem: discovery:/var/mail/domain.tld/patrick/mdbox/mailboxes/Folder1/Folder2# ls -l insgesamt 8 drwx------ 2 vmail vmail 4096 5. Sep 23:42 dbox-Mails drwx------ 3 vmail vmail 4096 5. Sep

I make other test: If I dump the message file m.xxx with doveadm dump I found Detected file type: dbox file.msg_header_size = 30 file.create_stamp = 1532017559 (2018-07-19 18:25:59) offset 16: msg.size = 2252089 msg.received = 1532017559 (2018-07-19 18:25:59) msg.virtual-size = 2281418 msg.guid = 06b7dd2c97bb505b54340000193e0904 msg.orig-mailbox = INBOX if I dump the index of inbox :

I've updated http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation regarding a typical mail_location entry for dbox. Previously it said: mail_location = dbox:~/dbox but of course "dbox" is now the old name for "sdbox", so the example should be updated to say "sdbox" and there might/ought also to be an example for "mdbox". In

Can't get Thunderbird 2 to delete a folder under mdbox (Dovecot 2.0beta5) I have built Dovecot 2.0 and installed it under "/opt/dovecot2". I have done the minimum configurations necesary to get it to work with SSL, systems users but with a secondary password database, and set up mail location as "mdbox:~/dbox". I had to create the directory "dbox" in the

Hello, I use dovecot with dbox storage system. Today I receive 2 mail (I see that in the maillog ) but I don't find in INBOX using my IMAP client. I look in the files m.* and I find the message that I receive. But I cannot find it in any IMAP folder. I try to run "doveadm force-resync -u user inbox" but nothing change. I export all email using the command "doveadm

Hi there, got a problem with the zlib plugin, just wanted to test it on a test-mailserver, configured like in the wiki (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Zlib) and restarted the server. I've send an email to a blank maildir++ mailbox, the file is saved as gzip compressed file, but the "Z" flag is missing in the filename. Is that a bug in the plugin, or in dovecot? Greetings, Jan

Hello everybody, I have a question about lazy_expunge plugin. I set up Dovecot with lazy_expunge plugin on a Debian Wheezy machine; I setup also a global acl to keep .expunged namespace readonly for all users. Imap client is Horde Webmail Edition 5.2.3 When I try to delete folders containing subfolders, lazy_expunge copies into expunged private namespace only the upper level folder. The subfolder

We're considering a move from Courier to Dovecot.? So far, looks like it's not too bad, but the most challenging obstacle is what to do about our local delivery.? Factors: 1. we use a lot of maildrop "features" that are impossible in sieve without piping to an external program (would rather not re-write our working maildrop scripts in another language) 2. would love to try

I was thinking about documentation for alternate storage. We have a few mentions at: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/dbox http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Altmove But I was thinking it would be helpful if there could be a page about alternate storage. I could write the page, but I currently have so many unknowns that I think it would be

Hello, no sieve SCRIPT. in the maillog say "Stored to INBOX". I don't have the maillog plugin, I install it now to track future problems. But If I backup the inbox all email (also that I cannot see) is in the mbox file.
