similar to: Sharing user folders doesn't work when users have periods in names.

Hello Timo, I'm having a hard time trying to understand why Thunderbird 3.0.3 doesn't allow me to subscribe to a shared mailbox which I can subscribe to via Kmail for instance. I'm running dovecot-1.2.11/Maildir. The user 'doveimap' shares his mailbox folder/subfolder to the 'dovepop' user which should see it in the '#shared' shared namespace at the following

I'm having difficulty with the doveadm who command on a multi-instance setup of dovecot. When I run the who command on the non-standard instance with the -m flag (to see their mail location), this happens: [root at wardentest3 dovecot]# doveadm -i mailtest user -m warden doveadm(root): Error: user warden: Initialization failed: Namespace 'INBOX.': Ambiguous mail location setting,

On RHEL 6.2 + dovecot 2.1.5 with the stats and fts (squat) plugins enabled and each user having their own uid on the system I get the following error in the logs when the indexer-worker process indexes some messages: Apr 25 09:56:19 wardentest3 dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=warden, method=PLAIN, rip=137.238.60.164, lip=137.238.2.240, lport=1993, mpid=19464, encryption=TLS Apr 25 09:56:26

Every time a user logs into Dovcot's IMAP service PAM closes the session immediately after it opens. I would like a user to have a session open long enough to read some emails. dictator at drakeclasher:~$ sudo dovecot -n # 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.14-0.bpo.1-amd64 x86_64 Debian 7.8 mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir namespace inbox

I apologize if this is a stupid question but I just compiled 2.0.8 and am trying to use doveadm to get the quota for a user using the -S <socket_path> option because I have different options for the various local IPs that dovecot listens on. For example, my default quota is filesystem (NFS rquota) and I can get that by doing: doveadm quota get -u warden which tells me: Quota name

I am at wits end...So far it seems dovecot is light years ahead of UW-IMAP. Glad to have UW-IMAP behind me...well almost. My setup = Sendmail 8.13.4 with Procmail delivery to /var/spool/mail/<userfile> openssl 0.9.8 dovecot 0.99.11 I want to continue to use the standard mbox with all the user's mail stored in /var/spool/mail/<userfile>.

I've been trying to get Dovecot 1.0a3 running on OpenBSD 3.7, with little luck. I'm getting the following: Oct 16 17:00:50 mailtest dovecot: pop3(testuser):open(/var/mail/.temp.mail.mailtest.com.7078.43c0f93e9fecb54a) failed: Permission denied Oct 16 17:00:50 mailtest dovecot: pop3(testuser): file_lock_dotlock() failed with mbox file /var/mail/testuser: Permission denied Oct 16

Is there a way to make quota_rule apply to subfolders? I've got some symlinked mailboxes which I want to exclude from quotas. This would work, but is verbose: quota_rule6 = USERS.aaa:ignore quota_rule7 = USERS.bbb:ignore ... quota_rule9999 = USERS.zzz:ignore But simply writing this: quota_rule7 = USERS:ignore doesn't apply to USERS.xxx and so on. The wiki says

We brought up a test cluster to investigate GlusterFS.

We will be deploying a replacement Dovecot server soon, and we are planning to use maildir for the primary storage, but with an archive namespace using mdbox (or perhaps sdbox), and SIS. Our backup servers and (luke)warm spare server need to obtain full copies of the mail store. For the maildirs I know I can simply use rsync (we already use it here). I'm a little wary of using rsync with

I have Julian Fitzell's migrateuser.sh script which uses mb2md-3.20.pl to convert a mailbox in mbox format to Maildir. I have set up a test user called "mailtest" which has mail as follows: /var/mail/mailtest /home/mailtest/mail/ Drafts MoreStuff Sent Items Stuff After the conversion I want all this user's mail to be in /home/mailtest/Maildir/

Hi, Our Cisco 7940 phones on a single network sometimes seem to drop calls as soon as they are picked up. After a second INVITE the phone sends '500 Internal Error'. One phone thinks its still in a call (though there is no audio) while the other phone is not in a call. The drop happens immediately after connecting and I think it is due to a second INVITE. Turning reinvite off seems

Hi, we've defined a public namespace "shared" and use the acl and lazy-expunge plugins among others.

Hi, Is it possible to have a static user database along with an LDAP password database and *not* be forced to set "allow_all_users=yes" for the userdb? The wiki page on static user database says "Normally static userdb handles this by doing a passdb lookup instead." How should the passdb behave in order for this to work? In my tests (on a test server) I am using

Hello, The current version of LDA can crash (seg fault 11) under certain circumstances. I don't know why it happens only with some accounts, but here is a backtrace.

I just upgraded my RH9 installation to Fedora 2. To my surprise, imapd seems to be gone from the core. I noticed there are now two IMAP servers docevot and cyrus. After reading brief descriptions of both, dovecot would seem to be more compatible with my setup. Especially since I'm using mbox's. I have 2 questions. It seems like dovecot does not support mailboxes inside of a
