Hello list, the scenario: A user has about 30k mails in his Maildir (all in INBOX) and needs to apply filtering. Provided he writes a working .dovecot.sieve script, is there a way to put all those already delivered mails through Dovecot's LDA and thus have the sieve filter rules applied? Or is there any other way to apply sieve rules to already delivered mails? TIA Andreas -- Andreas

Hello list, this may be off topic but it is closely related to my Libvirt adventures so maybe you can help me. I want to pass a USB device (a USB Huawei E620 modem) through to a KVM guest. Pass-through in general works fine and the modem is visible in the guest. However, the host still sees it and sometimes tries to access it (such modems seem to also be USB storage devices). This naturally

Hello list, I am currently playing around with a virtual domain/virtual user setup and thanks to the documentation on both the Dovecot and the Postfix websites things are going swimmingly (apart from an oddity I will post separately about). On trying things out with different newly created virtual users I wondered if it was possible for Dovecot to create certain IMAP folders on the first

Hi, Using Dovecot 1.2.4 and the new Sieve implementation in version 0.1.12, I ran into a problem that could indicate a bug in Sieve. The following is a simple script (as generated by Horde's Ingo application) to redirect incoming mail and also keep a copy of the message in the local inbox: if true { redirect "foo at example.org"; } if true { keep; stop; } Problem

Hi, Is it possible to have a static user database along with an LDAP password database and *not* be forced to set "allow_all_users=yes" for the userdb? The wiki page on static user database says "Normally static userdb handles this by doing a passdb lookup instead." How should the passdb behave in order for this to work? In my tests (on a test server) I am using

Hi list, this probably isn't a completely libvirt-specific question but I'll try anyway. Please ignore if it is too much off-topic. On an Ubuntu (9.10) virtualisation host, running KVM and libvirt and several guests (Debian, Ubuntu, Windows Server 2003) in a bridged network fashion [1,2] I noticed that performing /etc/init.d/networking restart on the host completely cuts off all

Hello list, a quick question: can I use Dovecot's LDA "deliver" as a destination in Getmail? I.e.: [destination] type = MDA_external path = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver arguments = ("-d", "username",) Or is deliver not supposed to be called this way? What I'd like to do is use deliver in the same way I would have used procmail ages ago. Getmail

Hi list, but mainly Stephan :) when building and subsequently installing the new Sieve plugin I am coming across a small difficulty when it comes to "make install". The libraries lib90_sieve_plugin.* always get installed in the directory /usr/local/lib/dovecot/lda, no matter what "prefix" argument is supplied to "make install". Only the libraries seem affected,

Hi all, I'm experimenting with the expire plugin and seem have run into a small problem. I am using Dovecot 1.2.4 on a test server. The config is taken mostly verbatim from the expire plugin wiki page [1], using MySQL as a database. See below for detailed output. Namespace "private" has "/" configured as mailbox separator: namespace private { separator = /

Hello list, I'm using Dovecot 1.0.0 on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE and applied the latest MANAGESIEVE patch v3 [1] which seems to have worked smoothly, i.e. all hunks succeeded and no compilation problems. Now this may be stupid question with an obvious answer, but I am at a loss at how to start the daemon? What's the binary called that starts the sieve server? Is there a special way to

Hi list, I am having trouble getting global ACLs to work correctly. This is, I assume, an issue separate from the one I reported a few days ago [1], where the imap process crashes when creating subfolders of folders with an ACL set. As you can see from my 'dovecot -n' output below I have three namespaces; two private ("Backup" and the default, empty one) and one public

Hello list, while fiddling around with the configuration so Dovecot's LDA "deliver" can be used by multiple users by means of Getmail (you can read about that in [1]) I always end up running into the error message posted in the subject line: Jan 15 00:00:02 HOSTNAME deliver(USERID): Can't connect to auth server at /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/auth-master: Permission denied

Hello list, I am not quite sure whether this is a questions for Dovecot or Postfix. I have set up, virtual hosting for one domain (for test purposes) using a passwd-file as passdb and a static userdb (see dovecot -n at the end) along with Postfix in a manner described in [1], i.e. a non-Postfix mail store. Other than that I also do hosting for the canonical domain which is for users with a

Hello list, I am trying to set up a public mailbox for users to put spam in so that sa-learn can do its job at night. Only I can't seem to fully understand how and which permissions should be set. I've read [1] and am using Dovecot 1.0.1. First some background information: I do not host or care (at the moment) about virtual users or virtual mail hosting. All users have Unix system

Hi, I started experimenting with ACLs and found I could reliably and reproducibly crash the IMAP process when trying to create a subfolder of a folder that has has ACLs set. The folder is called "Sent" with an ACL of "owner lrwstipke". I wanted to be able to have certain folders the the user cannot delete but where subfolders can be created freely. Relevant information

Hi, I am compiling dovecot and I found dnotify & inotify. What does dnotify or inotify do ? do i need it. Thanks

Excuse me for being stupid and confused. I'm trying to convert my dovecot install from passwd-file to mysql. I have a single table called "users" that has 3 fields, user_name, domain_name and password. The data came from passwd/shadow files so it uses the same password encryption as the shadow files do. The directory where the email is stored is calculated elsewhere and not
