similar to: Compressing existing maildirs

I've been running continous dsync backups of our Maildirs for a few weeks now, with the destination dsync server using mdbox and SIS. The idea was that the destination server would act as a warm copy of all our active users data. The active servers are using Maildir, and has: $ df -h /usr/local/atmail/users/ Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/atmailusers

Great information, thank you. Could you remark on GPFS services hosting mail storage over a WAN between two geographically separated data centers? ----- Reply message ----- From: "Jan-Frode Myklebust" <janfrode at tanso.net> To: "Stan Hoeppner" <stan at hardwarefreak.com> Cc: "Timo Sirainen" <tss at iki.fi>, <dovecot at dovecot.org> Subject:

We have both dovecot and a webmail application that are both modifying our users maildirs, so dovecot indexes can be out of sync when the webmail has been messing with the maildirs. We also have a webservice that report how many unread messages a user has in his inbox, which is simply counting files in the maildirs (plus caching the result, and present old values if the directory timestamps hasn?t

I?m considering moving from maildir to mdbox, but don?t quite see how I should do the conversion with minimal downtime. Our userdb is ldap, and the we use this setting to point to the users maildirectory: user_attrs = mailMessageStore=mail=maildir:%$:INDEX=/indexes/%1u/%1.1u/%u,mailQuota=quota_rule=*:storage=%$ i.e. every user has a "mailMessageStore" attribute in LDAP that points to

I'm in the processes of running our first dsync backup of all users (from maildir to mdbox on remote server), and one problem I'm hitting that dsync will work fine on first run for some users, and then reliably fail whenever I try a new run: $ sudo dsync -u janfrode at example.net backup ssh -q mailbackup at repo1.example.net dsync -u janfrode at example.net $ sudo dsync -u janfrode

I just configured postfix' virtual_transport to point at my dovecot director, but am seeing occational problems like this: Aug 31 11:50:06 smtpgw postfix/lmtp[5339]: 69E2F5410D: to=<email at example.net>, relay=loadbalancers.example.net[192.168.42.17]:24, delay=0.15, delays=0.14/0.01/0/0, dsn=5.5.4, status=bounced (host loadbalancers.example.net[192.168.42.17] said: 501 5.5.4 Invalid

We have an imap-client (SOGo) that doesn't handle this status output while searching: * OK Searched 76% of the mailbox, ETA 0:50 Is there any way to disable this output on the dovecot-side? -jf

I looked around the 'Net to see if there might be a custom program for offline Maildir to mdbox conversion. So far I haven't turned up anything. The problem for us is that the dsync program simply takes a lot of time to convert mailboxes. I wonder if time could be saved with a program that is optimized to convert mailboxes without the fancy locking that dsync needs to do. Does have (or

My dovecot directors (v2.0.8) had 3 instances of these yesterday: imap-login: Panic: file ioloop.c: line 35 (io_add): assertion failed: (fd >= 0) master: Error: service(imap-login): child 17374 killed with signal 6 (core dumps disabled) imap-login: Panic: file ioloop.c: line 35 (io_add): assertion failed: (fd >= 0) master: Error: service(imap-login): child 1780 killed with signal 6

We have quite a few frontend mail gateways that deliver incoming email trough our dovecot director (lmtp proxy) to the backend lmtp servers, and are seeing this logged on the frontend mail gateways: Sep 5 10:51:56 mailgw1 postfix/lmtp[23443]: 0E2F41C01A: to=<me at example.com>, relay=loadbalancers.example.com[192.168.42.15]:24, delay=61, delays=0.02/0.3/31/30, dsn=4.4.0, status=deferred

IMHO it would be great if we could both provision and un-provision users without having the provisioning system mess with files in the filesystem. Provisioning new users works fine since dovecot will create all files/directories on first login, but I haven?t found the tools to un-provison them. I see "doveadm mailbox delete" can delete individual mailboxes, but what about indexes,

I'd like to get the IP-address of the webmail-klient logged in my maillog (for being compliant with coming data retention policies). I've noticed that with login_trusted_networks pointing at my dovecot directors, we get rip=client-ip logged on the backends. How is the proxy providing this to the dovecot backends? Anybody know what magic we need to implement in our webmail-solution to be

I now have "mail_home = /srv/mailstore/%256RHu/%d/%n". Is there any way of asking dovecot where a user's home directory is? It's not in "doveadm user": $ doveadm user -f home janfrode at lyse.net $ doveadm user janfrode at tanso.net userdb: janfrode at tanso.net mail : mdbox:~/mdbox quota_rule: *:storage=1048576 Alternatively, is there an easy way

I have a strange problems with quota on v2.0.14. We have an ldap user directory, and all users should have a mailQuota defined there. My problem is that some users gets the quota enforced, while others don't, and "doveadm user" doesn't seem to agree with "doveadm quota ge gett" Ref: $ doveadm user janfrode at example.net userdb: janfrode at example.net home

Guess I don't quite get namespaces, but we have the following namespace configured: $ doveconf namespace namespace { hidden = no inbox = yes list = yes location = prefix = INBOX. separator = subscriptions = yes type = private } But when I try running dsync it complains: $ sudo -u atmail dsync -u janfrode at tanso.net mirror mdbox:/tmp/janfrodeboks

We've been collecting some stats to see what kind of benefits UP/SquirrelMail's IMAP Proxy in for our SOGo webmail users.

One of our dovecot-servers (v2.0.14) got a bit too busy last evening: Sep 13 20:39:18 popimap1 dovecot: master: Warning: service(pop3-login): process_limit reached, client connections are being dropped then logged a few: Sep 13 20:39:20 popimap1 dovecot: pop3(XXXXXXXXX at YYYYY.YY): Warning: I/O leak: 0x3829233d20 (10) Sep 13 20:39:20 popimap1 dovecot: pop3(XXXXXXXXX at YYYYY.YY): Warning:

Hi This is my first post here so i will be as precise as i can I'm trying to setup a quota system using dovecot postfix and procmail dovecot version 1.2.9 postfix version 2.7.0 I have succesfully modified dovecot config to use fs quota system (so far imap and pop3) It reports correct quotas to imap and pop3 clients (both user and group) What im tryin to do now is to modify

Hi, I'm wondering if someone already implemented a compression script (and would like to share it) based on the step-by-step provided on wiki page of Zlib module. I can already do some find|xargs gzip .... but couldnt implement it completly as described on the wiki page. I know the suggested step-by-step is very detailed and probably a must simplier will be enough for almost
