similar to: Error: file_dotlock_create failed: Permission denied

Greetings, I am setting up Dovecot 1.0.15 on my home Fedora Core 8 pc ONLY to access my mail archives across several mail clients. No access from the internet is possible or needed here. I cannot log in with any client, the login always fails. The reason, as I understand, is that when dovecot starts it doesn't read any user name from the userdb file, so when I try to login it doesn't

Hello all ( Postfix and Dovecot ) Trying to use deliver as mailbox_command with Postfix I get this error each time an email is arriving deliver(xxxxxxxx): Error: file_dotlock_create(/var/mail/xxxxxxxx) failed: Permission denied (euid=3003(xxxxxxxx) egid=3010(smig) missing +w perm: /var/mail) (set mail_privileged_group=mail) Doea this means I have to chmod 777 the /var/mail directory ?

Hello, I've set up virtual mailboxes and I'm using one uid/gid pair (mail/mail) to deliver almost all messages. Some accounts I'd like to have accessible by local Linux accounts as well, so postfix is delivering them using separate uids (gid stays the same). But I run into a problem when dovecot auth correctly fetches uid/gid from MySQL database, but still uses general mail

Hi All, We are running Round cube on top of dovecot and postfix as our email echo system. Main problem we are facing is that, roundcube loads really slow for big inboxes (~5000 emails). I found that, while it loads, imap process goes high in terms of CPU utilization(~90%). I asked it in some roundcube support group, They believe that it is related to dovecot not roundcube. Can you shed any

Hi. I'm using exim that delivers email over LMTP to dovecot 2.2.13. I noticed that dovecot LMTP service is sometimes (reare but repeats) mixing users. Example below. There is one mail (msgid=<1ACE53B70631CA45B62348E4EE8757493731A59E at KRMXA41>) that is going to be delivered to multiple local recipients. Some recipients are delivered properly: Sep 1 05:40:33 host dovecot:

Hi, I am struggling with Postfix/SASL/Dovecot-IMAP setup with ~/Maildir/ setup. Receiving the mail works fine, but viewing the mail(+listing) is failing. The setup I use is simple unix users from etc/passwd, (pam thru SASL) as I only host for a few people. The ~/Maildir folder has the ownership of the user, not mail or vmail, as I would have expected from the master.cf from Postfix, the

Hi! I've upgraded from 2.0.11 to 2.0.12. I've experienced errors during delivery with dovecot-lda. The error log attached contains the errors. Since then I had to downgrade to 2.0.11, to make it work again. When starting 2.0.12, it couldn't chown() the files under /var/dovecot (eg.: dict) to the user specified in the configuration file. Configuration: # doveconf -n # 2.0.11:

Greetings, I have seen via google that this very problem was already discussed on several lists some months ago, but the archives report no solution. I have a remote server with dovecot 1.0-0_12.beta8 on Centos 4.3. IMAP works just fine: I can read email from both Squirrelmail via web and Kmail. Now I have created an ssl certificate on the server, and I'm trying to retrieve email via pop3s
