Starting Dovecot Imap: Fatal: service(pop3-login) User doesn't exist: dovenull Just some real time feedback. I don't know what dovenull user is or why it is necessary.

Trying to figure out the syntax to set a mail_location for SQL. This doesn't work: userdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/master-combined-sql.conf override_fields = mail_location=maildir:/fakedir/%d/%n:INBOX=/fakedir:LAYOUT=fs } Does anyone know the proper syntax? Thanks in advance

I would like to have a list of IPs (hacker list) that I can do a lookup on so that if anyone tries to authenticate to dovecot they always fail if they are on my list. I have the list - and the list is available as a DNS blacklist. I'd like to have it work with both local IP lists or RBL lookup. The idea is so hackers from known IP addresses never succeed. If Dovecot provides the feature

Is it possible to run a bash script for authentication where a 0 exit code indicates success and a non-zero is failure? What I'm trying to do is create a shadow IMAP server that authenticates against a different server. That way my server will use the same passwords as an existing server. So what I would need is for dovecot to pass the username and password to my script, I attempt to log

Hope to get some attention about this idea to reduce hacking passwords. Here is a list of about 700,000 IP addresses that are hacking passwords through SMTP AUTH http://ipadmin.junkemailfilter.com/auth-hack.txt This is a list of IP addresses that attempted to authenticate against my fake AUTH advertizing on servers with no authentication. We do front end spam filtering for thousands of

I'd like to make a suggestion. Let's drop the Alpha and come out with an official version 1.0. Here's my reasons. The 0.9x version are obsolete and people should be using the 1.0 Alpha versions which seem to me to do everything the previous versions did and more. It's as full featured and stable as all other IMAP servers and in my opinion is ready to be called 1.0. The

After upgrading to Alpha 4 I have two people complaining about a POP problem. Aparently they are getting their email sent to them over and over. They have it set to "leave messages on server" but apparently whatever keeps track of that is broken. So - how is it determined with POP what is new and what is read?

So Timo, Have you considered the idea of storing all the email in a MySQL database? Seems to me that MySQL could somplify all the backend stuff that everyone struggles with and with replication one could create very massive and reliable systems. What would it take to use MySQL that way?

After upgrading to 2.31 I'm getting this error. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Is there any known/possible problem while upgrading from dovecot 2.0 to 2.1 ? Did anybody had any trouble with this ? ------------------------------ Jean Michel Feltrin

Just wondering if there's an open source Linux alternative to MS Exchange so that all the features of outlook work?

OK - here's whay I need to make it work for my Linuxconf compatible authentication system. First - a question: Will this work? I can find docs on "virtualfile. auth virtualfile { mechanisms = plain digest-md5 userdb = passwd-file /etc/vmail/passwd.%d passdb = passwd-file /etc/vmail/shadow.%d user = root } Then - since the dmain name selects the passwd file, if there were a

Or you can implement a policy server yourself. :)The protocol is not complicated, json over http.

I guess Dovecot has an LDA called deliver. What is it and how do I use it? Or is it ready to be used. can't find any docs on it. -- Marc Perkel - marc at perkel.com Spam Filter: http://www.junkemailfilter.com My Blog: http://marc.perkel.com

Hi, I'm looking for some advice to do a really advanced trick with Dovecot. I'm not sure if this can be done. I need to describe first. I have a spam filtering company that does front end spam filtering. (Junk Email Filter) I want to add a system where I store a copy of spam on a server and make it available to the customer to review and maybe resent on false positives. I know I

This would make my life a lot easier in migrating to Dovecot. And it should be really easy to implement. Here's how linuxconf does it: Password files are placed in the /etc/vmail directory as follows: /etc/vmail/passwd.domain1 /etc/vmail/shadow.domain1 /etc/vmail/passwd.domain2 /etc/vmail/shadow.domain2 The password and shadow files are exactly the same format as the /etc/password and

I'd like a separate feature for setting umask for index and cache files differently from email files. The reason is that I'm putting indexes in a separate location and I need group create rights in directories. Otherwise what happens is that the first user creates the directories, but the second user for the domain that has a different UID gets an error. default_mail_env =
