similar to: Dovecot 1.2, problem with SQL quota and mail aliases

Hi, While moving services to a new server, I finally decided to switch from exim + procmail delivery to exim + dovecot-LDA (dovecot 1.2.5). All accounts are virtual - their settings are stored in mysql. This also includes configuring Quota and Sieve. So... there come some doubts: 1. Using "deliver" As I see, deliver uses auth-master socket to retrieve the mailbox settings

Hi, On one of my servers (old one, version 1.2.5) user reported that vacation message for basic address works fine, but not for the aliases. I know that this is an old version, but we can't simply switch them to the most current dovecot release without preparing and testing everything... So I'm rather asking for help with debugging the case :) This person has email my.name at

Hi, I am going further with dovecot configuration. Finally managed to configure roundcube 0.3 with managesieve plugin. And it works, although... not perfectly :( For some issues probably roundcube-managesieve is guilty, but simply the sieve plugins seems to work wrong. Here is my sieve file: require ["vacation","fileinto"]; # rule:[wakacje] if anyof (true) {

Hi, I can't get quota lda plugin working... When I enable quota plugin, the emails (delivered by exim + dovecot-lda) are instantly rejected: 2009-09-29 16:36:12 1MsdoI-0000aJ-2L ** jacek at my-domain.pl R=mysql_localuser T=dovecot_delivery: Child process of dovecot_delivery transport (running command "/usr/lib64/dovecot/deliver -d $local_part@$domain -f $sender_address -a

Hi, This might be a stupid question, since my knowledge about Exchange is really poor... Since I've got iPhone, I have noticed that IMAP mailbox support is quite crippled in this device - in comparison to Exchange mailboxes... As I assume that it would be easier to convince Bill Gates to install linux than to convince Steve Jobs to change anything in his "perfect phone", I

Hello, I am trying to run dovecot on my Linux. I am using an exim 3.30 as the MTA with vmail-sql virtual users. I have installed latest dovecot release and ran through the config file. Some options seemed unclear to me, but generally I think it is OK. The problem is, that MySQL authentication does not work. It even does not try to authenticate! Dovecot connects correctly with MySQL database,

Hi, I was trying to create complete rpm package for my system, containing dovecot 1.2.5 intregrated with dovecot-sieve and dovecot-managesieve. Finally I succeeded and it works great, but I found something that might be treated as wrong behaviour... When you run ./configure --with-docs=no, Makefile does not build docs anymore, but... installs them anyway :) It caused some troubles because

Hi, I'm trying to set up dovecot-stable (http://www.dovecot.org/nightly/stable/dovecot-stable-20051124.tar.gz) All seems to be prepared correctly, but... my dovecot can not access the mysql database :( Connection string goes like this (i tried changing the order of parameters, that's why password is the first in the line): connect = password=***** host=/var/lib/mysql/system/mysql.sock

Hi, Finally I decided to give a try to dovecot 2.0, after spending few years with 1.2. Unfortunately, it doesn't go smooth - finally I managed to cope with LMTP transport and exim, but failed to run managesieve. I have compiled pigeonhole, installed it, configured, everything seems to be done well - except the fact, that nothing is listening on port 2000 or 4190. Here is my doveconf -n.

Hi, I'm using finally dovecot 2.0 after quite a smooth upgrade from 1.0 :) with virtual mailboxes stored in sql database. Sometimes I need to check if a mailbox has been used recently or not. Checking for logins in dovecot logs sometimes means searching through gigabytes of info... I was just wondering if there is any possibility of running another query after successful login - just to

Hi, My current setting for quota is: plugin { #quota = dirsize:User quota #quota = maildir:User quota quota = dict:User quota::proxy::quota #quota = fs:User quota } I have used mb2md.pl and copied result files manually to a desired mail folder - but quota was not recalculated. And it seems, that no matter what I do - the quota usage remains the same. I tried uncommenting line with:

Hi all, While reading the "Multiple locations, 2 servers - planning questions..." thread, it just hit me that I was planning to do something that seems to be a bit hazardous... I am setting up an high-availability server set, which consists of two (or more) servers with common disk space, all set behind redundant hardware load balancers. At first, there will be two servers and disk

Hi I am having problem regarding ACLs. I use ldap as db backend and everything seems okay but ACL retrieving of shared folder paths... why is the date and root wrong? dovecot is 1.2.17 ####dovecot-ldap.conf user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,mailQuotaSize=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$,mailQuotaCount=quota_rule2=*:messages=%$ ####dovecot.conf mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=~/index namespace

Hi, is it possible to compile dovecot 1.2.5 with the managesieve patch 0.11.9 which is for dovecot 1.2.4 or is it better to wait if a new managesieve patch is released? Maybe 1.2.5 will work too? Thanks, Seba

I need some help with the dovecot configuration. I want to remove downloaded messages from Mail Server once the messages have been successfully downloaded by pop3-clients, even when the clients have been configured to save copy of messages in the Server. thanks, Julio

Hello, I use dovecot with a LDAP backend for user account and aliases. The aliases are objects of the class couriermailalias. Some users would like to use the alias address as POP/IMAP login instead of the 'true' account. Is this possible?. I am using dovecot version 1.0,10, from ubuntu hardy packages. Thanks for any answer, Javier

Hi, I'm using dovecot 1.2.5 with mysql backend and seems in this new version I have issues when loggin in, especially if there are mails in Inbox folder. NOTE: version 1.2.4 worked perfectly and mysql was updated to version 5.0.86 from source code. Here is my configuration and core dump: > /applications/dovecot-mail/sbin/dovecot --version 1.2.5 >
