Hi fellow list members, What would be the best way to add the .Sent,.Draft, etc. folders to the maildir tree? It seems not Dovecots task to do that but of the MUA. I have seen several options. Use of skel but that works only for new system users. I have only virtual users preloaded in a database. I've discoverred that ONLY Roundcube add the folders (if configured to do that) but I've

Hi, I seem to be forced to run the auth proces as root because I want to use pam for local users. My gut feeling says that this is Not Good. Is there another way? For the virtual users 'vmail' is good enough because that user may access the MySQL database. This is on Ubuntu server 10.04.1 and Dovecot 1.2.9. TIA, Egbert Jan

Hi helpful list! I have this user that has two different accounts om the mail server. One is a system account, the other is a virtual account (for what it is worth...). This user would like to have all his email to the virtual mail box (maildir format) automatically moved (or delivered) to the system mailbox (also maildir fornat). Both are on the same machine and use the same postfix/dovecot

Hi, I'm trying to convert users from a sendmail server to a postfix/dovecot server. All works fine but one of the last things is to rescue the messages in /var/mail/<user> on the old server. This seems very straitforward using the convert plugin but with the settings from the wiki, nothing happens when the user logs in. Do I need a private namespace for this as suggested elsewhere

Now most things seem to work (rc12 on Mandriva 2007.0), I've been looking more thoroughly at the syslog file. I see a 'syscall failed' at the end of a normal timed poll from the client. I wonder what it means. Sorry for the layout, it is messed up by the cut and paste. I have created the selfsigned cert and key in the /etc/ssl/dovecot/[certs,private] directories. Egbert Jan Nov 8

Maybe best asked to Axel... I'm re-building my server from scratch (the old one was MDK 10.1 -> Mandriva 2006.0 with Postfix/Courier) and I want to install the latest versions postfix/mysql/postfixadmin/dovecot/squirrelmail. I've been building Dovecot (and postfix) from tarballs/srpm in the past so I know more or less how it all fits together. But I wonder if 'old' patches

Hi, Sometimes a script kiddie tries to guess passwords on our mailserver (Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS, postfix, dovecot 1.2.9, scanners, the standard stuff). That leads to a nagios message about the high number of processes. The number goes above 500. Nagios threshold is set to 250, which is more than enough for normal operation of this server. When are these processes supposed to die again? They seem to

Hi list, I'm facing this problem: I have a e few local (system) users and a bunch of virtual users (in MySQL). To make it easy for the big group, I've set a default domain which is not the domain of the server (which is just the servername). So the big group logs in with there short name without @<domain>. BUT the few system users (in passwd) cannot login to pop or imap because

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.

Hi, I'm fighting all weekend on with auth and pam to authenticate local system users. testuser is such local user and is in passwd and shadow. I want to have local system users (testuser is one of them) and virtual users. The virtual part works fine but I cannot get the local user to connect. Still pam fails finding the user. The suggested password mismatch at the end is, in my eyes,

Hi, I have had a long standing problem with NUT talking to 110V MGE UPSs on FreeBSD, I was recently investigating again and noticed that upsd seems overly noisy, eg.. May 5 03:50:36 egbert upsd[96662]: UPS [ups1] data is no longer stale May 5 03:50:36 egbert upsd[96662]: Data for UPS [ups1] is stale - check driver May 5 03:50:36 egbert upsd[96662]: UPS [ups1] data is no longer stale May 5

Hi, I'm trying to get old mail from /var/mail/<user>, where <user> is the (sometimes) huge mailfile, not a directory, converted to the maildir INBOX in ~/Maildir. Users have no ~/mail directory; they were supposed to use pop3 only. I'm trying the example from the wiki: plugin { convert_mail = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%n } but have still not succeded. I tried

Postfix 2.5.5 SpamAssassin 3.2.5 (under Perl 5.10.0) ClamAV 0.95.1 Dovecot 1.2.rc2 works fine on Fedora 10. Installed Dovecot and ClamAV from source and everything else using yum. I'm using the ClamAV plugin for Spamassassin: http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/ClamAVPlugin I'm calling Spamassassin with: /etc/postfix/main.cf: mailbox_command = /usr/bin/spamc -f -e

All, My dovecot install works great except for one error I keep seeing this in my logs. The folder has 7138 messages in it. I am informed the user they needed to reduce the number of messages in the folder and believe this will fix the problem. My question is about where the problem lies. Is the problem related to an internal limit with Dovecot v2.0.15 or with my Debian (3.1.0-1-amd64)?

Hi, I have mailsystem with virtual users only (/home/vmail/domain/user). I need to integrate RT3.x (a ticketing system). I have installed the client but I need to send mail to a pipe. Rt wants me to insert: |/usr/bin/rt-mailgate --queue bla --action bla --url http://bla.bal/ In /etc/postfix/aliases. That does not work for me. What is the right way to achieve that mail to rt at mydomain is

Since doveadm service proxying apparently doesn't work with dovecot v2.0, we need to find a way to safely run doveadm purge on the host the user is logged into. Would it be OK to run purge in the pop/imap postlogin scripts? We already do a conditional: test /var/log/activemailaccounts/imap/$USER -ot /var/log/activemailaccounts/today then touch /var/log/activemailaccounts/imap/$USER fi so

Hi all. Now hopefully as a new thread because I still have this question. Apologies to Geert and Timo for my misbehaviour...(repling to the list and changing the subject). I hace Dovecot rc12 working on Mandriva 2007.0 now for system accounts and virtual accounts both imap and imaps can be used. Th problem now is that I cannot use both types of user at the same time. The 'mail_location =

Hi! We will soon start upgrading our Ubuntu mail server (running 2.0.19) from 12.04.1 LTSto 14.04 LTS. The dovecot config is still pretty much in 1.x style; one flat file called dovecot.conf. I can easily switch to a dovecot.conf with the "!include" lines and rename my flat config file to local.conf. I've tested that and it works fine. I could also try to move all lines in local.conf
