expire-tool and userdb returned mail location
Hello,
I'm having problems with expire-tool in Dovecot 1.2.6 not finding the
mailboxes. I had
mail_location =
mbox:/var/spool/dovecotmail/%d/%n/mails:INDEX=/var/spool/dovecotmail/%d/%n/indexes
in dovecot.conf, but that doesn't work with expire-tool. So I commented
that out from dovecot.conf, all the data is in a database anyway. A
userdb lookup returns the following for userid at

Dovecot Expire doesn't work
Hello,
I'm using dovecot and I want to use the "expire" plugin.
However, it doesn't work, i.e. mails do not get deleted.
I ran `/usr/sbin/dovecot --exec-mail ext
/usr/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool --test`
and besides printing
Info: stef/Trash: no messages left
Info: stef/Spam: no messages left
it doesn't do anything (especially not deleting e-mails).

Dovecot 2.1 mbox + maildir
What syntax is needed to make this work?
The 2.0 wiki recomendations don't work - I can see the inboxes or the
folders but not both at once and there are lots of error messages about
prefix clashes if I simply use the existing 2.0.20 conf file on 2.1.6
The layout I have is:
Inboxes in mbox format - /var/spool/mail/%u
Folders in maildir format - /var/spool/imap/%u/Maildir/

Dovecot v2.0.beta3 quota using userdb

I'm playing around with the new Dovecot v2.0.beta3 and don't seem to be

expire plugin
Hello,
I am testing expire plugin, with quota plugin enabled.
When I execute expire-tool, maildirsize is not updated.
Is there any solution to update maildirsize when executing expire-tool?

utility to update indexes ?
We have both dovecot and a webmail application that are both modifying
our users maildirs, so dovecot indexes can be out of sync when the
webmail has been messing with the maildirs. We also have a webservice
that report how many unread messages a user has in his inbox, which is
simply counting files in the maildirs (plus caching the result, and
present old values if the directory timestamps hasn?t

maildir maintenance?
Hi, I'm running version 1.2.15 (so no doveadm) with around 6000 maildir
users, some of which are very large. For completeness, the details of
the setup are as follows:
- The maildirs are stored via NFS.
- The indexes are on a volume local to the dovecot server.
- Only one IMAP server currently.
- A separate sendmail/procmail server delivers via NFS.

changing location of index files
Hello,
I think changing index files location of mail_location setting
to reduce disk I/O.
by adding "INDEX=/var/index/%d/%1n/%n" to mail_location like below,
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/var/index/%d/%1n/%n
Will this change cause any problems or data loss to existing pop3 users?
There are only pop3 users on this server.

Significant performance problems

I'm sure my issues are a result of misconfiguration, but I'm hoping
someone can point me in the right direction. I'm getting pressure to

it's time to ask again what features companies would be willing to pay
for?

Variables in LDAP userdb
Hi Timo,
Is it OK to have dovecot variables in entries in an LDAP userdb? Say I
wanted to set the mail userdb parameter to override mail_location, would
it work by having an entry in LDAP (eg for mailMessageStore attrib) like:
mdbox:/home/email/%d/%n:INDEX=/home/indexes/%d/%1n/%n:ALT=/home/email_archive/%d/%1n/%n
and those % variables will still be expanded by dovecot? Or would I be
