Hi I'm very new to Dovecot (been using Courier for 5 years), but I've been persuaded of the merits of Dovecot and since the server needs upgrading that seems like the perfect time/excuse. On a test server, I set up postfix and installed Dovecot (running 32-bit Debian Squeeze, installed from apt-get). I mirrored the mail store (Maildirs, for historical reasons located under

HI I don't know if this is a dovecot issue or a client one. But as Dovecot is the most recent change, I'll start here. I have a server that's been running Courier for about 6 years and in all that time I think I've only ever had 1 issues where an entire mail box was repopped by a webmail client. However, since moving to a new server and dovecot 4 weeks ago, I've now had the

Hi; This is my 6th day installing my first Postfix/Dovecot installation. The Postfix mailing list indicates I've got the MTA under control so now I'm seeking your help with the MDA. I get these errors with legitimate email addresses: Oct 24 11:47:38 myserver dovecot: auth-worker: Error: mysql(localhost): Connect failed to database (postfix): Access denied for user

Hi Could someone explain to me the difference between LOGIN and PLAIN? I've been googling for a while, but haven't found anything. Thanks. Simon

Hi I'm about to upgrade to 2.1.7 in my test environment, but "doveconf -n -c dovecot.1.conf > dovecot.2.conf" is producing a blank file, so I am unsure how to proceed. I know a lot has changed between them, so I don't really want to have to start from scratch unless I have to. I have tried both as my user and with sudo. Simon

Hi I'm using Dovecot version 1:1.2.15-7 installed on Debian Squeeze via apt-get.. I have this error in the logs. /var/log/mail.log.1:2490:Jan 19 12:02:55 mail dovecot: imap-login: Maximum number of connections from user+IP exceeded (mail_max_userip_connections): user=<user at example.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, secured I never changed this from the default 10.

Hi, I have mailsystem with virtual users only (/home/vmail/domain/user). I need to integrate RT3.x (a ticketing system). I have installed the client but I need to send mail to a pipe. Rt wants me to insert: |/usr/bin/rt-mailgate --queue bla --action bla --url http://bla.bal/ In /etc/postfix/aliases. That does not work for me. What is the right way to achieve that mail to rt at mydomain is

Hello, I,m using Dovecot 1.2.9, now finishing a migration from Courier IMAP. Documentation (http://wiki.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home) says that home directory should not be the same as mail directory. When I create new user accounts with PostfixAdmin the mail directory is not a problem but is there some smart way to create the home directory as well (locating it for instance in

Hello, i have to backup (tape library) a mailsystem with about 300.000 Mailboxes on 2 backends. Summary of all mailboxes are 2 TByte. The mailstore is mdbox. Is it save to do a simple filesystem backup (full and incremental) with backupsoftware? What is the prefered strategy to do a backup for desaster recovery (mailsystem crash) and restoring single usermailboxes? Regards, Claus

Hi, we start to run out of diskspace soon as our users start to keep mails for longer time periods. That's fine, but space consuming. The maildirs are about 1 TB in total, and not long ago we enabled zlib which is very nice. Now I have some thoughts about the next steps: a) Migrating the whole system to a new server with more storage? b) Install a virtual server for the mailsystem and an

I know this unnecessary lookups question is really a postfix one, but I'm curious if anyone else sees the behaviour of postfix continuing looking up users after it clearly have got its answer that it is "not a local domain" response. (this msg is an extract from what I sent to WV some time ago, with him showing absolutely no interest, I got bored tonight so thought I'd throw

The mdbox-format with the altstorage-feature is quite nice and important. But we're having much more then >> 30 TB of maildata and doing an fsck on huge partitions takes too much (down-) time for our mailsystem. It would be much easier, if Dovecot would be able to use at least THREE storage-paths for his m-Files (and not just TWO like now). Having an altstorage1 and altstorage2, we

my mailsystem is using postfix and virtual mailbox which stored in mysql db. SMTP AUTH is using PAM, pam-mysql to authenticate against a mysql db. I installed dovecot 0.99-14. In the dovecot example config file it mentioned that auth_passdb can check against thru PAM but auth_userdb didn't Does it mean that auth_userdb should use other means e.g. /etc/passwd, shadow, vpopmail, etc and in my

Hi, i have a strange problem since pxelinux 3.62 with the F10 help key.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi :) Is there any plan to include delivery agent in 1.x? I would be very happy, if there would be lmtp delivery agent included with dovecot 1.x... This would make creating large mailsystem cluster creation very simple + indexes would be always up2date. Brane -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----

Hello all, I hope that it now works and there is no longer problems with my mailsystem. It could be that it already worked but it doesn''t look like because the mail don''t came back from the list. I am trying to setup stubdomains for my running domains on Xen 4.2. I read this wiki articles: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/StubDom

Hi All, first post here, nice to meet you :) I've been using dovecot + postfix + clamav + spamassassin for years but always with few users. Now i must build a server for 1500 users, they will use various email software (thunderbird, outlook, ..) the webmail (i'm not sure if squirrelmail or roundcube) and blackberry devices (with the BIS service). There will be around 1000 domains
