similar to: Client IP log variable for proxy/director setups?

I'm trying to use an external program to set the location of user's maildirs to match an existing hashing schema but the docs for how to do this in 1.x do not seem to apply to 2.0 or I'm misinterpreting them. protocol imap { mail_executable = /opt/dovecot-test/sonic-imap ... This correctly executes the and attempts to sets the MAIL variable but it appears that mail_executable is

Timo - I upgraded to 2.1.10 on our director servers two nights ago and apart from errors associated with the directors processes restarting everything looked great for ~24 hours until I failed our the real servers last night to update the nfs mount options for the spools. I followed the suggested procedure for each backend server, just run on one of the directors, which seemed to work as

I noticed our imap servers were generating a lot of A record lookups for their own IP's the other day and just got around to tracking down the source. Seems like they are all being caused by guid_128_generate() - perhaps the lookup could be cached at start up or it could just use make use of the hostname rather than spending the effort to get the IP via gethostbyname() calls. The function is

I'm curious if anyone has any plugins for AV integration directly into dovecot. Our old pop servers have been scanning messges as they're moved from new->cur in the inbox and, at least where user's aren't poping every few seconds, there is occasionally enough time between scanning through the MXs to message retreval to snag a few more virues with updated definitions before

To simplify recovery of accidentally deleted messages we'd like to send all messages that are deleted by pop clients to their Trash folder. (Which is auto expired already.) This allows a POP client who deletes an important email to restore it themselves by logging into our webmail client and move the lost message from Trash to the Inbox where it would be fetched by their client again. Has

One of our dovecot backend servers ran into a problem with it's auth process a few days ago. This doesn't appear to be the error logged when dovecot hits its internal limit so I'm not sure what is going on here. auth: Error: malloc: 58012: Cannot allocate memory auth: Error: Unable to allocate memory for mutexes from the region auth: Error: PANIC: Cannot allocate memory auth:

I've had 2x director ring up and running with production load on 2.1.8 with around 10,000 active connections for two weeks and everything has been working great - until this morning. There isn't anything obvious in the logs beyond the fact that the director connections started bouncing. It was not resolved by reloads or restarts or an upgrade to 2.1.9 (only the directors.) I've

I'm not able to get the FS quota module to behave as I expect. Depsite having function fs quotas and dovecot apparently configured to use then, the quotas appear to be empty and/or not configured. Any clues? # quota kgc Disk quotas for user kgc (uid 500): Filesystem blocks quota limit grace files quota limit grace /dev/sda3 1229460 7000000 8000000

I'm working the kinks of a new director based setup for the eventual migration away from courier. At this point, with everything basically working I'm trying to ensure that things are properly monitored and I've run into an issue. There doesn't appear to be a way to get dovecot to tell if it is (or is not) connected and properly synced with the other director servers in the ring

Hi all, we've started receiving complaints from users that seemingly use more quota than they actually have. We noticed that these users have (in some cases many) .nfs files in their mailspool. Some of our admins checked their own dirs, and noticed them there as well. This could of course be unrelated to dovecot (kernel issue, netapp issue) but maybe somehow has an idea about if dovecot could

I've been playing around with the fts plugins and currently have solr up and running. While the initial indexing time is pretty rough, the search performance is impressive. I've run into a problem though- so far as I can tell, thunderbird (and most other popular clients?) won't actually take advantage of it. Even using thunderbird's advanced search and checking the 'run

Hi, All, I am new here and I need your advises. Here is my story: I have a mail server like this: - CentOS 5 32 bit (LAMP) - Postfix 2.3 - Courier - MailScanner Courier use maildir to save emails in /home/vmail/<virtual domain>/<user> / Now I want to build a new system on CentOS 6.4 64bit with postfix, dovecot and migrate all user accounts and their emails. I already installed

The Courier IMAP backwards compatibility section in the Namespaces wiki suggests that hidden aliased namespace can cause problems for some clients but doesn't quantify the extent or likelihood of running into these problems. Does anyone with real world experience with similar configurations have any feedback? -- kelsey.cummings at sonic.com sonic.net, inc. System Architect

I apologize if this is a stupid question but I just compiled 2.0.8 and am trying to use doveadm to get the quota for a user using the -S <socket_path> option because I have different options for the various local IPs that dovecot listens on. For example, my default quota is filesystem (NFS rquota) and I can get that by doing: doveadm quota get -u warden which tells me: Quota name

Hi, I am looking for a specific mapping capability in R that I can't seem to find, but think exists. I would like to make a border of a map have alternating black and white squares instead of the common latitude and longitude grid. (example: http://www.cccturtle.org/sat_maps/map0bw8.gif). If anyone knows if there is or is not a function capable if doing this could you please let me know?

Hello, I am trying to write a code to estimate the  residual standard error and create a confidence interval using bootstrap, since it does not follow a normal distribution. So far I have found a linear model for the data (m1<-lm(y~x+I(x^2))), but I am not sure how to create the bootstrap code to estimate its residuals. Thank you for any input, Kelsey [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello We have a Samba 3.0.11 Fileserver running on Solaris and joined to an Active Directory. I have shares, with many directories, and I want to hide the directories, people are not allowed to access anyway. So I engaged the "hide unreadable files" option. This basically works. The Problem arises, when the user is logged on locally (not authenticated to the Domain) and mounts the
