Hello, I've just subscribed to the list, as a recent user of Dovecot (1.2.4 by now). I eventually missed a point, so I tried to find other doc or comments about my issue, but failed to. If the following has already been discussed, please simply reply with a URL to the corresponding thread or doc ;-) Now that I have covered my ass, here is the problem I meet. In dovecot.conf, I have the

When executing: doveadm search -A mailbox INBOX from SOMEBODY I am getting: doveadm(root): Error: user root: Invalid settings in userdb: userdb returned 0 as uid doveadm(root): Error: User lookup failed: Invalid user settings.

Hello! I have problems fetching mail for a system user. In use is a passwd-file.

Hi, I'm trying to configure a server to use SAMBA and Winbind to authenticate to Active Directory.... I managed to get this portion up and running even the Dovecot portion. For reference something similar to this guide: http://www.whitneytechnologies.com/?p=119 However PAM is slightly different: # cat /etc/pam.d/dovecot auth sufficient pam_krb5.so no_user_check validate account

Hello, I'm trying to understand what's the difference between those parameters. In my dovecot.conf in the global section I have a definition of mail_uid and mail_gid. In my LDAP configuration used by passdb and userdb, I have a definition for user_attrs= uidNumber=500,gidNumber=8. Here is a part of my configuration files (dovecot version: 2.1.7) dovecot.conf mail_gid = 8 mail_uid =

Hi Trever, things improved after resetting user/machine passwords, however only the session key is using aes256 now, the ticket itself is still arcfour: root at ubuntu1:~# kinit user09999 user09999 at S4DOM.TEST's Password: root at ubuntu1:~# klist -v Credentials cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_0 Principal: user09999 at S4DOM.TEST Cache version: 4 Server: krbtgt/S4DOM.TEST at

Hello, I spend a couple of days configurating a new installation of dovecot 2.0.14 with virtual accounts and NFS storage for maildir home/mail directories. At this point I need shared mailboxes but since user mail/home locations are ldap attributes, how is it supposed I must configure this for shared mailboxes? for the users' mail/home directories I set this line: user_attrs =

Hello folks I'm trying to use Dovecot deliver LDA instead Postfix virtual LDA The last road block I have to resolve is to define mail_uid, becaus dovecot.err log has these error messages: May 04 14:57:19 deliver(user1 at some_domain.com): Error: User user1 at some_domain.com is missing UID (set mail_uid) May 04 14:57:19 deliver(user2 at some_domain.com): Error: User user2 at some_domain.com

Hi Everyone, I'm new in dovecot - so first at all, thank you for amazing work. I'd flicked through dovecot code and it's very accurate. I'm trying to use dovecot with a little bit non-standard configuration: dovecot installed under /my_path/dovecot, all users has the same home directory /my_path/var/mail and have to access all mailboxes/folders located there. But I have

I have found source4/scripting/devel/chgtdcpass for adding the aes types to machines. I know you have to change the password of normal users. How do you fix this for krbtgt? Can you just change the password? Is there a recommended method? Thank you for any help, Trever -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

This is a continuation of a problem I have been having. Samba 4 has recently changed to require binds. I need LDAP to verify users exist. I am using Kerberos (GSSAPI) as the passdb. Samba can handle GSSAPI/Kerberos SASL binds. I have the following in my dovecot-ldap setup for userdb: dn = smtp/mailhost.example.org at EXAMPLE.ORG sasl_bind = yes sasl_mech = GSSAPI sasl_realm = EXAMPLE.ORG

I am using Maildir and virtual domains. I have the following definitions in the dovecot.conf: mail_uid = 10000 mail_gid = 10000 mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/apps/%d/%n/Maildir ... Userdb database is LDAP based. Some users in LDAP might have a uid/gid defined. If thats the case, I want dovecot to use those uid/gid. If the user in LDAP does not have a uid/gid attribute, it'll fall back to

Hello All, I am in the United States where we have e-discovery rules. Some organizations have to retain data for a certain amount of time, others are required to have a data retention policy. This means that while it should probably be possible for a user to "delete" an email so they do not see it. The server needs to store it, possibly in a tree that mirrors the folder setup of

I know that sieve doesn't do math. The file would be created externally.

Hi, I have been using this setup for years: mail_home = /var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n mail_location = maildir:~ I have since learned that mail_home and mail_location should be different. I plan to use this: mail_home = /var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n mail_location = maildir:~/mail I would like the transition to be transparent for my email clients. I don't want mail/directories/sieve_scripts to
