similar to: Concurrent dovecot instances on same spool?

Hi, I am going further with dovecot configuration. Finally managed to configure roundcube 0.3 with managesieve plugin. And it works, although... not perfectly :( For some issues probably roundcube-managesieve is guilty, but simply the sieve plugins seems to work wrong. Here is my sieve file: require ["vacation","fileinto"]; # rule:[wakacje] if anyof (true) {

Hi, This might be a stupid question, since my knowledge about Exchange is really poor... Since I've got iPhone, I have noticed that IMAP mailbox support is quite crippled in this device - in comparison to Exchange mailboxes... As I assume that it would be easier to convince Bill Gates to install linux than to convince Steve Jobs to change anything in his "perfect phone", I

Hello, I have a small server running dovecot 1.2 (still not balsy enough to switch to 2.0 - virtual sql accounts, managesieve etc.). There are no local users - only ones defined in the SQL database, and everything else (including quota) is defined in SQL db too. Dovecot is used as IMAP daemon, and dovecot-lda is responsible for delivery (in order to make use of sieve and managesieve). I know

Hi, I can't get quota lda plugin working... When I enable quota plugin, the emails (delivered by exim + dovecot-lda) are instantly rejected: 2009-09-29 16:36:12 1MsdoI-0000aJ-2L ** jacek at my-domain.pl R=mysql_localuser T=dovecot_delivery: Child process of dovecot_delivery transport (running command "/usr/lib64/dovecot/deliver -d $local_part@$domain -f $sender_address -a

Hi, On one of my servers (old one, version 1.2.5) user reported that vacation message for basic address works fine, but not for the aliases. I know that this is an old version, but we can't simply switch them to the most current dovecot release without preparing and testing everything... So I'm rather asking for help with debugging the case :) This person has email my.name at

Hello, I am trying to run dovecot on my Linux. I am using an exim 3.30 as the MTA with vmail-sql virtual users. I have installed latest dovecot release and ran through the config file. Some options seemed unclear to me, but generally I think it is OK. The problem is, that MySQL authentication does not work. It even does not try to authenticate! Dovecot connects correctly with MySQL database,

Hi, I was trying to create complete rpm package for my system, containing dovecot 1.2.5 intregrated with dovecot-sieve and dovecot-managesieve. Finally I succeeded and it works great, but I found something that might be treated as wrong behaviour... When you run ./configure --with-docs=no, Makefile does not build docs anymore, but... installs them anyway :) It caused some troubles because

Hi, I'm trying to set up dovecot-stable (http://www.dovecot.org/nightly/stable/dovecot-stable-20051124.tar.gz) All seems to be prepared correctly, but... my dovecot can not access the mysql database :( Connection string goes like this (i tried changing the order of parameters, that's why password is the first in the line): connect = password=***** host=/var/lib/mysql/system/mysql.sock

Hi, Finally I decided to give a try to dovecot 2.0, after spending few years with 1.2. Unfortunately, it doesn't go smooth - finally I managed to cope with LMTP transport and exim, but failed to run managesieve. I have compiled pigeonhole, installed it, configured, everything seems to be done well - except the fact, that nothing is listening on port 2000 or 4190. Here is my doveconf -n.

Hi, I'm using finally dovecot 2.0 after quite a smooth upgrade from 1.0 :) with virtual mailboxes stored in sql database. Sometimes I need to check if a mailbox has been used recently or not. Checking for logins in dovecot logs sometimes means searching through gigabytes of info... I was just wondering if there is any possibility of running another query after successful login - just to

Hi, My current setting for quota is: plugin { #quota = dirsize:User quota #quota = maildir:User quota quota = dict:User quota::proxy::quota #quota = fs:User quota } I have used mb2md.pl and copied result files manually to a desired mail folder - but quota was not recalculated. And it seems, that no matter what I do - the quota usage remains the same. I tried uncommenting line with:

Hi, While moving services to a new server, I finally decided to switch from exim + procmail delivery to exim + dovecot-LDA (dovecot 1.2.5). All accounts are virtual - their settings are stored in mysql. This also includes configuring Quota and Sieve. So... there come some doubts: 1. Using "deliver" As I see, deliver uses auth-master socket to retrieve the mailbox settings

Hi, I'm sure that it WAS working, but I can't guarantee... On a system with dovecot 2.0.16 and dovecot-pigeonhole-2.0_0.2.5. Today a user reported that vacation autoreponse did not work for him. As I have checked the dovecot logs, I see such a message: Jun 04 13:39:51 lmtp(9986, user at xxx.com): Info: ZumtCleezE8CJwAAA1GDYg: sieve: msgid=<alpine.LNX.2.00.1206041336520.11397 at

Hi, is it possible to compile dovecot 1.2.5 with the managesieve patch 0.11.9 which is for dovecot 1.2.4 or is it better to wait if a new managesieve patch is released? Maybe 1.2.5 will work too? Thanks, Seba

I need some help with the dovecot configuration. I want to remove downloaded messages from Mail Server once the messages have been successfully downloaded by pop3-clients, even when the clients have been configured to save copy of messages in the Server. thanks, Julio

Hi, I?m using dovecot 2.0.16 (I know, it?s oooold, but I have too many users to risk the upgrade while so many things have changed since) and virtual users based on MySQL. Today I had some troubles with user, who?s mailbox stopped working. No emails were delivered, with just following error line in EXIM mainlog: LMTP connection closed after end of data When I checked dovecot?s main log, and

Hi, I'm using dovecot 1.2.5 with mysql backend and seems in this new version I have issues when loggin in, especially if there are mails in Inbox folder. NOTE: version 1.2.4 worked perfectly and mysql was updated to version 5.0.86 from source code. Here is my configuration and core dump: > /applications/dovecot-mail/sbin/dovecot --version 1.2.5 >

Hello, I have dovecot 2.0 configured with virtual users in MySQL, SMTP is handled by exim which uses dovecot LMTP transport. I'd like to test quota warning messages, but in wiki2 there is only an example for delivering it with dovecot-lda. I tried several ways of using lmtp binary, but without success. How to replace this: cat << EOF | /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $USER

I think I won't do any actual releases until it's mostly feature complete. Then maybe v1.1.alpha1 or v1.1.beta1. So if you want to test it before then, use CVS or the nightly snapshots. I'm planning on keeping v1.1 almost completely compatible with v1.0. There could be some minor configuration file changes, but for most people v1.0's dovecot.conf should work with v1.1. I want to
