FW: Panic: Message unexpectedly expunged from index
Nevermind. I figured it out. I left off the INDEX command. Sorry to spam
the mail list :(
Here is my mail_location for future reference / searches:

Best way to upgrade from 1.0a4 to 1.0a5
Hello all,
I have 1.0 Alpha 4. Is it better to shut down sendmail, uninstall dovecot
1.0a4 then install 1.0a5, or just install 1.0a5 over the top of 1.0a4?
Thanks,
Cliff

Mailbox isn't a valid mbox file
Hello all,
I have a new installation of Fedora 4 and Dovecot 1.4.Alpha4
A small percentage of my users are getting unable to pop mail from a client
(ie: Outlook), they get continually prompted for username/password. The
error they get is: Mailbox isn't a valid mbox file.
When I look in the file, I don't see anything unusual. There's not much
info on the Internet about this

New Fedora/Sendmail Install Assistance
Hello everyone,
I've narrowed down my problem, so this should be an easy one for some smart
person out there.
I am moving from an old sendmail/Fedora 2 box to a new sendmail/Fedora 4 box
and want to try Dovecot for pop3. The problem is, I can't get it to work.
I have 9000 email accounts I will be moving to the new box. I've already
tried and failed once. The problem is, Dovecot

Graceful shutdown
Hello all,
I am running Dovecot v1alpha4 on Fedora 4 from the command line (as opposed
to deamon). Is there a recommended way to shut it down gracefully? Or do I
just use killall -9 dovecot? I'm not using the included version, so I can't
do SERVICE DOVECOT STOP.
Thanks,
Cliff

setting up home directories
Hello,
I have not been using the home directory but I read in MailLocation.txt that
I probably should. Does dovecot create each directory? What does it put in
there? My server uses mbox format. My users all look like this:
[root at sendmail log]# finger chayes
Login: chayes Name: 50387.00
Directory: /home/chayes Shell: /sbin/nologin
Never logged in.

FW: How to log POP3 events
Ok, I think I have that figured out.
I made the following mods:
disable_plaintext_auth = no
pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv
and it seems to work.
Now...about those enhanced logging capabilities. As promised, I see the
enhanced logging.
What does TOP and RETR mean? (I checked the manual first)

dictionary attack defense
Does dovecot have any dictionary attack defenses yet?
In the past I have had to implement defense from outside dovecot, but
since dovecot is at the front lines and therefore is the first to know
I'm hoping by now there is something we can set. For example, a limit
on access failures per minut/hour/day or some such. If not why not?

How to detect out-of-sync condition
I looked in the place where dovecot logs everything ... the maillog.
I didn't see anything but the log is huge and I could have easily missed it.
Is there a certain error or phrase I should look for?
If so please advise.

Are you sure about maillog? I mean:
doveadm log find
gives you that file?

Weird series of errors with dovecot-stable
I'm using the dovecot-stable from 7/30, authenticating against an
OpenLDAP server. From time to time, dovecot stops responding to new
queries. It seems to be a self-correcting problem, lasting about 20
minutes.
Here's how it starts:

passwd file for quota
Yes and No.
It's confusing to me which is why I ask.
Per my initial email my password source is PAM.
It's the userdb I'm concerned about ... which dovecot is using /etc/passwd.
So dovecot is getting user information from passwd file; password
information from PAM.
I need to add extra fields for qouta but can't add them to /etc/passwd
so I have to create a passwd with the extra

pigeonhole - how to whitelist
Thanks.
That's exactly what I needed.
However I have a permission problem.
I added the parameter to 90-sieve.conf and created the directory but now

How to detect out-of-sync condition
Thanks.
I use dovecot's lda and dovecot's sieve filter.
So it looks like I need to compare the index/mailbox mtimes as you suggest.
What am I looking for?
I see that the indexes are updated when I run the resync.
I checked my mailbox (that was not resynced) and noticed that
dovecot.index last update was 16 days ago.
So am I resyncing if the gap is over x days?
If so, is there a way to

Unable to get virtual users set up with database auth
I can't seem to get imap virtual users to work with database
authentication on new Scientific Linux 6.5 server with Sendmail 8.14.4 &
Dovecot 2.0.9
Apparently I have to also create system users because
sendmail/procmail/dovecot want to check directory ownership.
So I created a database, made entry for the user, created the user
chayes on the system.
But %u always contains just chayes

creating a dataframe using a list of the variable names
Hello,
I'm fairly new to R, and despite spending quite some time exploring, testing, and looking for answers, I still have a couple of questions remaining...
The first one is about creating a dataframe using a list of the variable names .
I get this output file from a database:
BOB <- c('A/A', 'C/C', '15/27')
MARY <- c('A/A', NA, '13/12')
