Hi All, We're trying to get dsync to synchronize pop3 mailboxes on multiple servers. Is this possible? Any hints are appreciated. Thanks, Tristan Tristan Goguen CEO, ILAP? T: 416-250-5600 ext. 205 F: 416-250-6755 tgoguen at ilap.com www.ilap.com

Heya, We are in the process of migrating from qpopper to dovecot as POP3 server (and IMAP as well) and we hit the UIDL issue with dovecot. Qpopper uses its own algorithm to create UIDL values and if you set it up to write them down in the mbox file as X-UIDL, then dovecot can use them (pop_uidl_reuse = yes). But if you don't use that feature from qpopper, than X-UIDLs are missing and there

I currently have a Centos server with Sendmail and Qpopper supporting about 50 mail users. I am planning to replace Qpopper with Dovecot to allow some users to have IMAP access to their mail (others will still use POP3.) Is there anything special to be aware of in setting up this migration? Thanks for your comments. Gerald

We have an older mail server using qpopper and the mbox format which we need to update to dovecot and maildir format. I have read through the docs on migrating from mbox to maildir, as well as a few nuggets on how to migrate from qpopper to dovecot, and I was wondering if I could get some suggestions on best practices for this specific migration. Would the built in dovecot conversion plugin be a

Hi, I did some performance testing with dovecot and qpopper, if anyone is interested.. Hardware: Dual Xeon 2.8 with HT enabled (dmesg sees 4 cpu-s), 1 GB RAM, SCSI RAID 1 with 2x Maxtor Atlas 10K V disks. Software: CentOS 4.3, Qpopper 4.08 in standalone mode vs Dovecot 1.0-0_19.rc6, ext3 filesystem Mailbox format Mbox, tested Pop3 with PAM authentication My setup had 15 test users with 15

I''ve got qualcomm''s qpopper2.2, and am not sure if its vulnerable. The advisory mentions pop and imap servers, but only says: version of IMAP (Section B). If your POP server is based on the University of Washington IMAP server code, you should also upgrade to the latest version of IMAP. Until you can take one of these actions, I installed the new imapd about 3

I'm hoping to migrate to dovecot from qpopper, with the eventual goal of enabling IMAP. However, my qpopper installation is fairly specialized, so I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone could get me headed down the best path. Here's the situation. I'm running FreeBSD and have a virtual domains setup with an extremely hacked LDA to do delivery to mailboxes within hashed

Hello, As this is my first post to the list, first and foremost I'd like to thank Timo for writing great software; we've successfully moved to Dovecot for over 10,000 users from UW-IMAP and get great performance. On our overloaded staff POP3/IMAP server, we are looking at replacing qpopper+uw-imapd with dovecot, as an interim before moving them to the main Unix mailstore. The system is

hi all, I am hoping to convert a 350K user qpopper installation using mbox to dovecot and maildir (pop3 only). many of the users "leave mail on server", and qpopper's UIDL format isn't (yet) supported by dovecot. since the UIDLs have been written by qpoppper to the existing mbox files (and will be preserved when the mboxes are converted to maildir) it would be possible to do

Hi, I am planning a migration from Qpopper 4.0.5 to Dovecot.. I need to use mbox format (because Openwebmail does not have native Maildir support yet) and pop3. The system will have about 1500 users, once migrating is complete. To avoid users downloading their mailboxes all over again, i need to set "pop3_reuse_xuidl = yes".. But that option works since Dovecot 1.0alpha1. RHEL

Hello, I have read in lots of places about how I should use pop3_reuse_xuidl = yes to prevent pop3 users having to re-download mail (and duplicate their e-mail) after a migration. This fails with the message: pop3_uidl_format setting is missing from config file Which setting for pop3_uidl_format should I set to prevent the e-mail being downloaded again?

Hi List, what do you think is the best way to migrate (to a new maschine) round about 30000 mboxes (Qpopper) with an amount of 43Gigs data, to maildir format (Dovecot). I think there are two ways: 1. - stop services (smtp and pop3) on the old maschine - copy the mboxes to the new maschine - run a conversion script (for excample: "Perfect_maildir" http://perfectmaildir.home-dn.net/)

Hello, does anybody know how to make XUIDLs compatible to qpopper? I'm migrating from qpopper and one of my test-migration-accounts leaves the mail on the server. As soon as I switch to dovecot it downloads the mails again and again.. bye! Dominik

I am testing migration from Qpopper 4.0.5 and have come across a problem. Dovecot dies while processing UIDL command when accessing malformed Qpopper's mbox which has duplicated "From " separator. Qpopper occasionally makes such header while rewriting mbox. In the attached file, unnecessary "From " at line 3. ---------------- * Dovecot 1.0.0 on Debian 4.0(x86) * ext3

Hi, I have a dataset in which I would like to select rows based on matching conditions and return the maximum value of a variable else return one row if duplicate counts exist. My dataset looks like this: PGID PTID Year Visit Count 6755 53121 2009 1 0 6755 53121 2009 2 0 6755 53121 2009 3 0 6755 53122 2008 1 0 6755 53122 2008 2 0 6755 53122 2008 3 1 6755 53122 2009 1 0 6755 53122 2009 2 1 6755

Dear list, I am planing to set up dovecot-imapd on my production-mail server which currently only runs pop3 via qpopper on debian-sarge. It would be best, if I could only use imapd and use the existing pop3- server (qpopper) as it is. Is this possible? Can the user both use pop3 (qpopper) and imapd (dovecot) in parallel then? Where does dovecot-imapd store its mails? Does it store its mail in

Hello, I'm attempting to move form qpopper 4.1 to Dovecot 2.2.5 on Linux. When a user checks POP mail qpopper seems to make a .username.pop temporary file in the same /var/mail directory as the mbox INBOX file. Watching what dovecot does I don't see this happening. Is this .pop file a lock file or just a temporary file? If its a temp file does dovecot do the same thing elsewhere?

Qpopper has a compile time option '--enable-auto-delete Automatically delete downloaded msgs' Is there anything similar in dovecot. I'm trying to migrate from qpopper to dovecot any help is appreciated.
