I have been attempting to replace Procmail with Dovecot as the LDA for my Postfix mail server, but without success. Below is a truncated output from the /var/log/maillog.

FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p8 postfix-current-2.4.20060903,3 dovecot-1.0.r7 I am experiencing a problem with dovecot as an LDA. It will not deliver mail unless the mail directory is chmod'd to 1777. Below is an example of the log file output. The dovecot.log file had over a hundred entries similar to this: deliver(gerard): Error: open(/var/mail/.temp.scorpio.seibercom.net.1123.cd38cd4d82e1368f)

FreeBSD 6.1 STABLE Postfix version 2.4-20060806 Dovecot v1.0.rc2 I have the following in the postfix main.cf file: mailbox_command = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver This is from the dovecot.conf file: default_mail_env = mbox:/var/mail/%u However, mail is never delivered with this configuration. This is an excerpt from the 'dovecot.log' file: deliver(gerard): Error:

This is probably a dumb question; however, I have never let a thing like that stop me before. A user can configure Dovecot to give a customized greeting when it is accessed. Is there anyway to customize the message it displays when it terminates the session? -- Gerard Seibert gerard at seibercom.net "Losing my virginity was a career move." Madonna

Dovecot 1.0.rc10 FreeBSD 6.1 This is probably a dumb question; however, I have never let a little thing like that bother me in the past. In the 'dovecot.conf' file there are the follow two sections: # SQL database passdb sql { # Path for SQL configuration file, see doc/dovecot-sql.conf for example args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf } userdb sql { # Path for SQL

I am new at setting up Samba3. I had heard that the name share name is supposed to be limited to 8 characters or less; i.e., [home] or [configs], etc. Is this correct, or can the name be longer? Also, are there any specific characters that are not allowed? I am not planning on using any, but I was just wondering. Ciao! -- Gerard Seibert gerard@seibercom.net A foolish consistency is the

OK, I am brand new to this so please bear with me. I have an FreeBSD 6.1 STABLE system. Postfix is installed with qpopper. The mailboxes are standard mbox format. I just installed Dovecot. At some point I want to update to a mdir format, etc., but quite frankly I do not know how to go about that. In any case, I shut down qpopper and started Dovecot. I modified the Dovecot.conf file SSL settings

I am attempting to save files from MS Word into a directory located on a FreeBSD 5.4 machine running Samba. For some reason, the files are always saved with permission 766 rather than 666, which is what I want them saved as.

Dovecot 1.0.rc7 Postfix 2.4-20061006 FreeBSD 6.1 STABLE I have dovecot up and running with postfix. I now want to switch over to a system using purely virtual users.
