problems implementing dovecot LDA with Postfix
Per the instructions here http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA and here
http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix I set
postmaster_address = postmaster at hardwarefreak.com
in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
and
mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver
in /etc/postfix/main.cf
When I restart dovecot I get this:
[07:17:00][root at greer]/etc/dovecot$ /etc/init.d/dovecot restart

First time Dovecot user, really impressed so far. What is best IMAP enabled webmail package to go with Dovecot?
Greetings everyone,
I'm new to the list as of today. I just installed Dovecot a couple of days ago
for the first time, Debian Lenny Dovecot v1.0.15-2.3. So far I'm pretty
impressed. I'm using mbox format with Dovecot auto-deciding to place mail in
user home directories, which is great. It works very well with the Win32
Thunderbird 3 client over a small basic 100FDX switched net.

Passdb + single sing on + NTLM + Thunderbird.
Hi!,
I want to use single sign on from Windows with Thunderbird or Outlook using
NTLM.
Which should be placed in the configuration file for passdb?.
Currently I have:
passdb {
driver = pam
}
But it generates the following error when trying to check mail:
dovecot: auth: pam (pepe, 190 108 101 120): unknown user
If I remove imap passdb just does not work and I add at the end of this

Samba SMB throughput
Hello everyone,
Quoting from Samba Team Blog #2 (25 Sept 2009):
"Volker showed how to get more than 700MB/sec from Samba using
smbclient and a modern Samba server, which shows what you can
really do when you understand the protocol thoroughly and don't feel
you have to invent a new one (SMB2 :-)."
Would it be possible to get a complete accounting of how this was achieved?
Thanks,

Dovecot and SSD
I'm considering setting up my own mailserver with Dovecot 2.0 (as soon
as it's out) and SSD. I'm debating whether it's worth it or not. I
have been running a mailserver with the Dovecot 1.1 train for a couple
of years and it's been flawless and amazing. I'm thinking about using
either FreeBSD 8.1 w/ZFS or OpenBSD 4.8-beta on a 64 GB or 80 GB SSD
(Corsair or Intel) using

1.2.15 can't get zlib working
Following these instructions: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Zlib
I enabled zlib and restarted Dovecot. I made a backup copy of a 68MB
mbox file and moved it to a non mail directory. The mbox file is an
existing TBird IMAP folder in my UNIX user mail directory. It is an
archive of a defunct mailing list. It was a regular IMAP folder prior
to attempting this. I was able to access all emails

wish now I'd not upgraded...
Upgraded from Debian Dovecot 1.0.15 to Debian Dovecot 1.2.10-1~bpo50+1.
I use Postfix local delivery to and Dovecot mbox. As per upgrade directions, I
stopped dovecot processes and deleted all dovecot.index.cache files in
/home/%user/mail/.imap. Performed upgrade to 1.2.10-1~bpo50+1. Modified new
dovecot.conf for my environment. Started dovecot.

performance transfer (samba VS ftp)
Hi folks :-)
situation:
debian stable (samba version 2:3.2.5-4lenny9)
from clients by ftp the transfer of huge file is about 10/11Mb/s (with an
ethernet 10/100)
by samba came 5/6Mb/s
is it correct?
In smb.conf I don't have any "strange"options:

Fwd: Re: Dotlock dovecot-uidlist errors / NFS / High Load
Stan,
Thanks for the reply. In our case we have actually already done most of
the work you suggested to no avail. We had rebuilt two new ntp servers
that sync against two stratum 1 sources, and all our nfs clients,
regardless of using dovecot, sync to those two machines. You bring up the
difference between bare metal and hypervisor, and we are running these
machines on vmware 4.0. All the

Ongoing performance issues with 2.0.x
Due to the ongoing performance issues with 2.0.x I switched back to
1.2.15 yesterday evening, with no changes to the machine or my users.
(I migrated from 1.2.15 to 2.0.x by converting the existing config)
Today, we have MUCH LESS load, with the same number of logins/min.
I cannot say what exactly causes this immense increase in load, but one
observation is that the time spent in system() has

SMB throughput inquiry, Jeremy, and James' bow tie
I went to the site to subscribe again and ended up watching some of
Jeremy's Google interviews. I particularly enjoyed the interview with
James and the bow tie lesson at the end. :)
So anyway, I recently upgraded my home network to end-to-end GbE. My
clients are Windows XP SP3 w/hot fixes, and my Samba server is 3.5.6
atop vanilla kernel.org Linux 3.2.6 and Debian 6.0.6.

1.2.11, mbox, new mail
With 1.2.11 and mbox storage, the delay time in pulling new mail headers to
the client from imap folders seems to be directly proportional to mailbox
size, regardless of the number of new messages. At present, if the mailbox is
large, pulling new headers is rather painfully slow.
Is this expected behavior? Especially given that the client already has all
the "old" mails in the folder

Problem installing latest dovecot w vpopmail

Best Cluster Storage
Hi Everyone,
I wish to create a Postfix/Dovecot active-active cluster (each node will
run Postfix *and* Dovecot), which will obviously have to use central
storage. I'm looking for ideas to see what's the best out there. All of
this will be running on multiple Xen hosts, however I don't think that
matters as long as I make sure that the cluster nodes are on different

outlook 2007 very slow.
Hello
I have a user with 2500+ sub folders. Total mailboxes size is around
6G. (mdbox, dovecot 2:2.0.14)
Syncing/Receiving appears to be slow, with outlook 2007. He does not
want to switch to an alternative, due to various reasons.
I did not find any error logs indicate issues.
during idle, imap process appears to loop at adding inotify watches to
all folders.

Sieve problem. Timo, is this mbox file size limitation hard coded? If so, why?
I would not have expected this upon implementing sieve. And I really need
to get around this limitation. LDA has no problem writing to these large
mbox files. Why does sieve have a problem with them? This is very odd.
