Hi guys, I tried to use a global sieve skript to sort spam mails into a subfolder of INBOX. I?m using mdbox. The log shows that the script is called and executed but it is not able to find or create the mailbox: Sep 4 15:18:55 mercury dovecot: lmtp(6237, mail at steulerfliesen.de): Debug: Namespace : Permission lookup failed from /var/mail/steulerfliesen.de/mail/mdbox/mailboxes/Spamverdacht

Hi everyone, can anybody explain the difference between Dovecots fast sync and full sync in replication mode? Regards Patrick

Hi everyone, some days ago I had trouble with my NFS-Server (high delays) which caused dovecot lmtp to deliver the same message several times (up to 10x). I recognized some old/unused .nfsXXXX files in the maildirs which seemed to be index files. I deleted them and everything was fine again. However, there are still 2-3 mailboxen where mails (old and new ones) are delivered multiple times. All

Hi there, is anyone using munin to monitor connections to dovecot? If someone does, which plugin is used? Regards Patrick

Hi all, I just recognized a lot of log entries like this on my proxy: Dec 03 13:50:54 imap-login: Info: proxy(mail at example.com): disconnecting 1.2.3.4 (Disconnected by server): user=<mail at example.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=1.2.3.4, lip=2.4.6.8, TLS, session=<qk02v6DsJwBTlUQX> There are no similar entries on the backends. What does this mean? Something I have to worry about?

Hi all, is anyone on this list who dares/dared to store his index files on a MLC-SSD? Regards, Patrick

My server serves 2 domains so user1 at domain1.com is the same as user1 at domain2.org I've created the mail_location string with %n and static userdb with %n dovecot creates 2 mail user directories user1 at domain1.com user1 at domain2.org What the heck am I missing .. ??

Dovecot 1.2.11, using postfixAdmin 2.3 to manage, basically using the postfixadmin schema and sql queries during install. - If I set a forward for an account to go to a remote email address, no dupes. - If I set a forward for an account to go to an email address on the same system, I get a dupe in the inbox of the second address. So if account1 at domain.com has account2 at domain.com as a

Hi Guys, is it possible to use more than one host with the pgsql backend? Like this: connect = host=10.5.29.77 host=10.5.29.210 dbname=postfix [...] I read that this is possible with mysql but I want to use pgsql. Regards Patrick

Hi guys, my default sieve script fails due to an unknown mailspace even I told him to use one. What's wrong?

Hi again, I`m a bit confused how to store a SSHA256 password in the database and I can`t find any information in the wiki. Do I have to store the SHA256 hash and the salt separately (what would the password_query be like in this way) or just the final SSHA256 hash? Regards Patrick

Hi, right now my index directory is part of the users home directory: mail_home = /var/mail/%d/%n mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox I want the indexes to be stored in a different location: mail_home = /var/mail/%d/%n mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox:INDEX=/var/indexes/%d/%n If I just switch this setting and reload the configuration, no e-mails are shown to the user. After restoring the whole maildir

Hi again, I just recognized a problem concerning subfolders after converting from maildir to mdbox. Thunderbird and SeaMonkey don?t show folders that are subfolders of subfolders. Have a look at the filesystem: discovery:/var/mail/domain.tld/patrick/mdbox/mailboxes/Folder1/Folder2# ls -l insgesamt 8 drwx------ 2 vmail vmail 4096 5. Sep 23:42 dbox-Mails drwx------ 3 vmail vmail 4096 5. Sep

Hi guys, is there any way to configure Dovecot to process the default sieve script and, after that, a user specific script? I have a default script to sort spam into a spam folder but if a user specific script is present, the default script is ignored. sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve sieve_global_path = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve Regards Patrick

Hi everyone, I would like to move my mails from ocfs2 to an NFS share. As the mountpoint and all folders and files belong to nobody/nogroup, dovecot is only able to access the mails if I give full access to "others". I don't like that. How do you NFS-using guys solve this problem? Regards Patrick

Hi again, my test environment is working now and finally I tried to implement my quota warning but it is not working. LDA says the mailbox is full even it is not (only 81% and that is why the quota warning is executed). Further I used :noenforcing in my script.

Hi, list, I'm going to deploy postfix + dovecot + CephFS( as Mail Storage). Basically I want to use two servers for them, which is kind of HA. My idea is that using keepalived or Pacemaker to host a VIP, which could fail over the other server once one is down. And I'll use Haproxy or Nginx to schedule connections to one of those server based on source IP( Session stickiness),

Hi everyone, short version: Is there no built in failover mechanism for the director service to handle a backend failure? Long version: I have a frontend server running the director service and two backends. Due to maintenance I had to shut down one of the backends which caused connection errors for the users being directed to this backend. I was very surprised as I expected the director to

I need to get a hand on the 'usual size of an index' to do some hard disk sizing. Is that possible at all? I know their size depends a lot on what the clients index. Those clients will mostly be Outlook and Thunderbird and they will be doing more POP than IMAP if that helps to bring it down to some estimation.
