similar to: mbox/maildir mixed setup with system/virtual mixed users

Hello, I have about 100 mboxes, a few with a lot of mails and others with a few mails. I have configured dovecot to use maildir as mail format, but I would like to give users the ability to access their old email located in their old mbox. So all the new mail would be in the ~/Maildir/ and their old or archived email in /home/vmail/mboxmail/%Ln How can I add a namespace to achieve my

Hello would it be possible to have mixed formats in Dovecot 2.1.x userland ? I mean MBOX format for INBOXes Maildir format for IMAP folders ( to let users create subfolders ) Thank you

I'm trying to set up a dovecot server for which mail arrives in an mbox, and mail is stored in a maildir. The wiki (see http://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces) refers to this as "Mixed mbox and Maildir". It advises handling this situation by creating two namespaces: one for the mbox and the other for the maildir. Each of these namespaces starts with namespace private { On the other

Hello, i tried to implement a mixed structure of mbox for spams and spam backscatters and maildir for the rest at dovecot 1.0.13. I used the information at the dovecot wiki: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces (Multiple Mailbox Locations) But if i try this (complete config is attached with this part) namespace: type: private separator: / prefix: "#md/" location:

I am using MailDir format for all my virtual users and it is working well. However, if email comes in to a unix system user, it delivers in Mbox format. This is mostly cron jobs that do this. Mail addressed to my virtual users goes to the MailDir locations just fine. None of these mailboxes have ever been created, they are just incorrect assumed addresses. There should NEVER be any

Hi, I'm new to dovecott. Using version 1.0.rc15. I have a mail server that has both the old style unix mbox in /var/mail/%u, and virtual mail maildir in /var/vmail/%d/%n. Debian Linux Etch stable. I'm trying to get dovecot to deliver to /var/mail/%u using mbox format, and to deliver to /var/vmail/%d/%n using maildir format. I can't get it do work. I can get it to access both

I have a mbox file of emails. I want to convert this to Maildir giving me individual message files per email. I've looked at dsync, but as far as I can tell this wants a specific target user and it appears that it will "distribute" the converted messages into that user's INBOX. I don't want to put these mbox messages into any particular user's Maildir hierarchy, just

Hi, I'm trying to configure a server to use SAMBA and Winbind to authenticate to Active Directory.... I managed to get this portion up and running even the Dovecot portion. For reference something similar to this guide: http://www.whitneytechnologies.com/?p=119 However PAM is slightly different: # cat /etc/pam.d/dovecot auth sufficient pam_krb5.so no_user_check validate account

Hi, This (hopefully!) might be a case of user error, as I'm new to dovecot... Alternatively it might be some confusion in an index, since I've been mucking about trying different things in my configuration files and had frequent crashes. I'm trying to sync 2 (LAN) hosts, ideally to have full automatic replication happening. They both have hybrid mbox INBOX and maildir++ folders,

hi, in evo when I open my mailbox INBOX is in the middle of my foder list. it seems evo sort folders alphanumericaly and eg Drafts is before INBOX. is there any way to put the inbox as the first folder? it very annoying:-( ps. anyway what is the status of the new indexing code and the thread view bug? thanks. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"

Is there some way to add a maildir folder to a mbox hierarchy? My folders are all mbox, but I want to migrate some client-side mail from a client (PMMail2000) that stores messages as individual files, and it might be easiest just to dump all the files into a maildir directory with suitable naming.

Hi everyone, Here is the story. We are running Redhat Enterprise Linux 4, and were using Dovecot .99.x . At one point, we chose to switch from mbox to maildir (and still use Dovecot). After the switchover our users reported a bug when using Thunderbird: "A new behavior that I have observed a couple of times is that the new IMAP server confuses email headers with content. E.g., I have an

Hi there. I understood that in Dovecot 1.0 it should be possible to mix the usage of mbox and maildir mailboxes. I just downloaded, built, and am testing dovecot-stable-20050304. I'm a bit confused as to the terms of namespaces (haven't read that part of the RFC yet), but this does not seem related. Anyway, when I try specifying: default_mail_env = ~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u On

The worst thing the happens to me when I'm backing up my home folder, is when wine creates symbolic links to my home foder, in a folder inside. So with this, is hard to make a backup the entire home folder, if it relies in some symbolic links to folders out side the actual home folder. Then I propose that wine could create a wine user/group and create a folder, for example /var/wineprofiles/

Is it possible to have some folders be mbox and some be maildir format? Why you might ask? Sometime for diagnostics I have the Exim MTA archive certain messages in MBOX format and then I want to copy them into an imao folder to look at them with Thunderbird. When I used MBOX all I had to do was copy the file into a folder and it worked. So what I'd like to do is have a folder with a

Hello, I have several users with Maildir format. After upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3, some directories could not be opened from thunderbird. The server log shows all kinds of errors including these: Corrupted record in index cache file /home/user01/Maildir/.Elk&APw-ld&APY-tt/dovecot.index.cache: UID 2802: Broken physical size in mailbox Cached message size larger than expected (18 > 17,

If your machine still has hangs with that MTU but works with a lower one then that would seem to indicate a hardware (or driver) problem with the ethernet (or possibly the PCI bus). Does it
