Just made the leap from 1.2 to 2.0.6 - and several maddening config typos I think I have a working system again! Getting closer to converting from maildir to mdbox, but first... Trying to use dsync gives me: dsync(root): Fatal: Mail locations must use the same virtual mailbox hierarchy separator (specify separator for the default namespace) Ok - I 've never configured namespaces

Hi, I'm still trying to migrate from Dovecot 1.2.16 to 2.0.7 on FreeBSD. Previous attempts have failed with mails not being visible after the upgrade. Version 1.2.16 was migrated from maildir to dbox about a year ago via the convert-plugin. After previous attempts to "clean" the hybrid maildir-dbox situation I used imapsync to copy all mails from the old account to a new

Hi all, I've been using dovecot as our internal mail server for quite some time. It works very well. Each of our mailboxes have 1000+ messages (some have more than 4-5000 messages). I have recently started using virtual folders and, using an adaptation of an example script in the dovecot site (http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual), to have a virtual folder changed to act as inbox.

Hello, We are running Samba 3.0.23c on Debian. Over the weekend, we updated out file server to Debian's kernel 2.6.18. We had previously never run a kernel with ACL support enabled. Since the upgrade, we are seeing very strange permission behavior. It appears to be related to POSIX ACL support in Samba. It seems that what's happening is this. We have a number of files that are

Hi there, We're running dovecot 2.06, with mdbox. Following message was in our syslog: Jan 20 09:26:48 servername dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.crit] imap(user): Panic: file istream-limit.c: line 79: assertion failed: (v_offset <= lstream->v_size) The problem could be solved on client side, by just deleting the ImapMail-Folder in Thunderbird. Why? Thunderbird tried to move a message, that

Hi, we found a serious bug while testing our migration scripts. in Solaris (or other system 5) the user variable is not always set. Dsync is not very happy about that and crashes with an segmentation fault. After hours of debugging and TWOE simple lines # USER=$LOGNAME # export USER the problem was solved! The null pointer was found - so i will go home now an drink a bottle of

Hi, ACL works fine now... But is it possible so allow users the creation of specific folder names? so users should be able to create a folder "Sent" but not the folder "Send" or something like that I just want to allow some folder names and only THESE folders...

Hello, We use LDAP to store our Maildir++ quota information for our Maildir mailboxes. I notice in the documentation that only SQL and flat files are supported by the dictionary quota if I want to use quota with mdbox? Are there any plans to allow LDAP to be used as the store?

Hello, I have a dataset with 4 variables, each consisting of a vector, all with the same length. I start by interpolating the first three variables using the function "interp", and plot the interpolation successfully using "filled.contour". I then interpolate the first two variables and a fourth using "interp" again, but when I try to overlay the contour lines

Sometimes a user logging in takes a while. I suspect the time delay is due to the size of a user's profile. Where is the profile data kept and how can this data be scrubbed or compressed? Mike

Hi, can you help? I am really struggling to find the answer to the following question. I have conducted a standard multiple regression using SPSS. The dependent variable is CE, and the independent variables are Ibelieve and Tbelieve. Because the independent variables are highly correlated I have examined the squared semi-partial correlations. I understand that the Ibelieve squared semi partial

Hello, we've been more than happy with Samba 3.0.22 on our Solaris 9 machines, but when we upgraded to Solaris 10 users are experiencing a multitude of XP desktop problems: icons disappear, start menu will hang because a few items link back to a samba share, many XP windows write delay problems, the whole desktop will hang. It seems the samba server will stop responding. Is there anybody out

I can't find much documentation on the convert_mail plugin. For example, on the wiki plugins page, clicking on convert goes to <http://wiki.dovecot.org/InterWiki> which is not relevant. Can I use convert_mail to migrate from UW IMAP 2002 mbox format where some mail is in ~/ and the inboxes are in /var/spool/mail? Will it know which files are mbox folders, so it doesn't try to

Hi chaps We're using the mbox_snarf plugin to snarf mail from /var/mail/%U to ~%U/Mail/inbox and using dotlocking on all accesses. This is on Solaris with NFS mounted home directories. We're getting a few (very few) of these for just a couple of users: Error: nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir: rmdir(/var/mail) failed: Device busy Which, having searched, I see some discussion of in the

Though there are conversion scripts, I'd like to give the convert plugin a chance. I have Dovecot 1.0.1 on Trustix Secure Linux 2.2 (Linux 2.4.27), and we had UW IMAP 2002e. Dovecot seems to work OK (e.g. I can add copy messages to it), but things break when I activate the convert plugin. The Wiki suggests convert_mail = mbox:~/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u # <--- locally changed to

I need to use a samba server (linux redhat 6.0 ) from a diskless dos machine ( has a floppy drive for booting) . So i need a very little tcp-ip stack for dos and a client for a NT server on dos so that they will be small enough to be on a 1.44 system floppy. Is that possible ? Paul

To all, I am using dovecot --version 1.0.10 and trying to convert MBOXes to MailDir's with the end goal of creating one folder filled with users old MBOXes that when they log in for the first time will be converted to Mail Dir format. I tried this and it did not work and gave me this output; <snip> default_mail_env = maildir:%h/mail/ #convert_mail =
