Hi all! I have just updated my dovecot 1.0.rc15 to 1.0.13-1~bpo40+1 from backports... I need some help in configure quotas by user using mysql

Hi, I am trying to deal with the problem, that under regular mbox format a path can lead to either a file or a directory, but not both, while under IMAP, a path is usually both, a message folder containing subfolders. I found dovecot's approach to this problem, the Maildir++ layout described under http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MboxChildFolders , and was astonished to see, what problems come with

The parameters listed for nfs installations (mmap_disable, doctlock_use_excl, mail_nfs_storage, mail_nfs_index) - are they necessary for data integrity, and/or do they compensate for NFS latency and improve performance? My understanding is the indexes are a critical part of a dbox storage, but on the other hand having local indexes is a major performance consideration. Is maildir a

To install the ruby-augeas gem, I installed rubygems on Debian etch, which lead to: Setting up libgems-ruby1.8 (0.9.0-5) ... Setting up ruby1.8-dev (1.8.5-4etch4) ... Setting up rubygems (0.9.0-5) ... Before this (I mean *immediately* before this) puppet worked fine exceept for not being able to find a provider for Augeas. After this, though: ec2-www1:/usr/src# puppetd -t Failed to load

Hi, I'm a Dovecot newbie and have some problems with the configuration/the resulting interoperability. My setup looks like this: I receive my mail using qmail-ldap and sort it with a number of means into ~/Mailbox/ (= INBOX) and ~/Mail/folder/ for various values of 'folder' (generally one folder per mailing list). The sorting is done via .qmail-* files, LDAP entries, and

Hi, I''ve prepared a Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server on a Xen 3.2-1 host running Debian Lenny on kernel 2.6.26-2-xen-amd64. The Ubuntu 10.04 domU is running a 2.6.32-24-server kernel from the Ubuntu repositories, which is (must be :-) ) xen-aware. The domU uses pygrub to boot and it works like a charm. Now I''m trying to deploy this domU on a Xen 3.2-1 host running Debian Etch on kernel

Hello, is there a way to write a logfile during sieve-actions? At least, I have trouble in reading sieve-scripts with tools from kmail ("connection refused) or thunderbird (timed out: server does not answer). There is no problem with the mailbox itself in reading or writing in it. The config for Sieve: dovecot.conf: ## ## LDA specific settings ## protocol lda { # Address to use when

I've had clients 'request' nested folders, and it would seem that maildir is designed with that ability while with mbox it is difficult and.or impossible to implement (nested can be achieved; but not nested AND populated in each nest level). My question is, is one format 'better' than the other? It would take a fair bit of time to convert my system to maildir and I would want

Hello We actually use MBOX format on our mailhub but this does not permit to create IMAP subfolders. Many users are asking me fot this feature and I agree with them of course. My problem is to choose the format that will permit imap subfolders creation. Maildir is not my favorite format and I wonder about MDBOX. Does it permit imap subfolders creation ? It is possible to convert from MBOX to

Hi, We are trying to convert all mbox mail on our systems to mdbox using dsync, in order to be able to use email sub-folders in Thunderbird. Everything works fine for non-inbox folders, however the inbox folders are not getting converted. We used: *dsync -v convert mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u* *dovecot --version* 2.0.beta6 (3156315704ef) (shipping with RHEL6/SL6) *dovecot -n* #

I'd like to change the on-disk layout for my mboxes from being ~/mail/foo/bar to ~/mail/foo.bar so that I can have folders containing both messages and subfolders, without having subfolders beginning with . and then having to do all the other fiddling with locations of index files etc. that goes along with LAYOUT=maildir++, and also leaving the filesystem layout looking sensible so

I installed xen 3.3.0 on a etch box from sources. I just modified the standard kernel cause of some hardware drivers. I installed xen-tools from backports (3.9-3~bpo40+1). To create a domU ist not the problem. I can connect via ssh and everything works fine. But when i start a domU with "xm create host.example.tld.cfg -c" to login to console from domU it hangs after the message

Hello Actually we use MBOX format for all our IMAP access but users complain they cannot create subfolders in imap folders, of course they cannot because of MBOX format ... I need gurus advices on changing mailbox format Maildir of Dbox ? What would be the safest way to go ? Note : we extensively use Thunderbird here. Thanks

Hello, I'm now dealing with funny problem. I try to use Dovecot (2.1.rc1, actually) and mbox format to store old mailing, to keep logic of "one folder = one file". If I'd choose Maildir, I'd be able to create hierarchical folders (like "OldMail -> Maillists -> Dovecot"), and in fact on disk such a folders would be stored as real folders with dots in

Hi guys, actually i use the following packages from etch-backports: =========================== ii linux-headers-2.6.18-6-xen-vserver 2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch1 Common header files for Linux 2.6.18 ii linux-headers-2.6.18-6-xen-vserver-amd64 2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch1 Header files for Linux 2.6.18 on AMD64 ii linux-image-2.6.18-6-xen-vserver-amd64

After installing a new server with postfix/dovecot I found that the Mac OS X mail client does not see email in subfolders. It seemed to be related to the namespace. From dovecot.conf: namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes hidden = no } After googling I found that I might need to add a default namespace with an empty prefix so I added this: namespace

Hello all, this mail is related to a post by Axel Schöner that I found at http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.xen.user/40621 when I was searching the WEB about solutions to my problem.

Thank you Tomasz! The quota per user worked fine now... The problem was that in dovecot.conf I had these lines: userdb static { args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/home/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes } And I just changed to: userdb sql { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf } Now it's working... bye!

On my Ubuntu system, when I click on a web link in my email program (Kmail), a winebrowser dialogue appears but the default browser (Firefox) is not called up. I am NOT using Kmail inside Wine so I don't understand why Winebrowser is being called. How do I fix this problem? I have removed and reinstalled Wine. Thanks
