In dovecot-2.1 hg you can now test dsync-based replication. Everything isn't finished yet, but it appears to work and I've enabled it for my @dovecot.fi mails. Some issues: - public namespace isn't replicated at all - shared namespace is replicated, but not private mail flags - I've only tested SSH replication setup now, not director replication setup (and director setup

Hi, i tried to setup replication since some days but I'am stuck now. My conf: # 2.2.10: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-431.3.1.el6.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS release 6.5 (Final) dsync_remote_cmd = ssh -l%{login} %{host} /usr/bin/doveadm dsync-server -u%u -l%{lock_timeout} -n%{namespace} log_path = /var/log/dovecot mail_gid = 5000 mail_home = /var/vmail/%d/%n mail_location =

Hello, i'm using postfix like smtp server, i need to choose an imap server with a special features. I have a customer with 3 different geographic locations. Every locations have a mail server for the same domain (example.com). If user1 at example.com receive mail form external this mail going on every locations server. I've a problem now, is it possible to syncronize the state (mail

Is it possible to get replication working in a virtual user setup that uses a static userdb ? My environment is fairly simple and typical - there's a single system user (vmail) that owns all the home dirs (/var/mail/domain.com/user). The virtual users (userid at domain.com:secretpassword) are kept in a single file (/var/mail/domain.com/PASSWD) that's unique per domain, and referenced as a

Hi, I'm trying to use the Dsync cluster feature in a simple setup, without director, but I'm having some troubles. First of all, I want to know if this functionality syncs the mailbox when the user receive a mail or only when the dovecot starts? Reading the Dovecot mailing list and the design description for a dsync-replicated Dovecot cluster, I understood that it should sync every time

Good afternoon, I have a problem with replication is configured in Dovecot, I have two servers, they are version 2.2.9. Here is their configuration /root at mx1:/etc/dovecot# dovecot -n// //# 2.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf// //# OS: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 7.4 ext4// //auth_debug = yes// //auth_debug_passwords = yes// //auth_mechanisms = plain login// //auth_socket_path =

Hi, I am using dovecot version 2.1.3 on centos. I tested dsync from my live server to one of backup server. But I got that its working for most of the user and there is problem for few user. Some users got duplicated mail to their mailbox and I saw there is some extra folders i.e Sent Items_* , Draft_* and Trash_* in few users mail box. and I synced only from main server to backup server. I

Hi, I've been seeing errors logged for some time with replication processes, whereby replication sessions seem to be timing out periodically. This is with dovecot version 2.3.10.1 (a3d0e1171) and both are Gentoo x86_64. After some investigation I've determined that these timeouts are only ever occurring with tcps as the replication connection type. These errors never occur if

Hi, I've been following the wiki document at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication, but I've become stuck. I'm running version 2.1.3 on NetBSD 5.2 (v2.2+ isn't available as a package yet, and compiling my own is well outside my wheelhouse). I have a couple of questions: The wiki page keeps referring to "vmail". Is this a just system user I need to create? Presumably

One step further in my quest to create a replacement mail server. I now have my old mail server (2.3.19.1, macOS + MacPorts) and my new (2.3.20, Alpine Linux, Docker, apk package). When I turn on replication it works, but, after a while I see: Jan 06 00:50:31 replicator: Panic: data stack: Out of memory when allocating 268435496 bytes Jan 06 00:50:32 replicator: Fatal: master:

Hello, I have 2 Dovecot 2.3.8 servers running SSL with valid wildcard certificates. Email clients connect fine, https://www.immuniweb.com/ssl/ tests show certificates are ok. However I can't make replication work when I add ssl = yes. Without ssl it works ok. I added verbose_ssl in config and error log shows: dovecot: doveadm(149.x.x.x): Error: SSL handshake failed: SSL_accept()

How problematic is it to have default_vsz_limit = 0 in dovecot.conf? macOS+MacPorts had this as a requirement even.

I am running two servers with Dovecot v2.2.12 on CentOS x86_64 (5.10 and 6.5 respectively) and users are virtual over ldap. I have setup our main internal server (vmail.example.com) with dsync replication according to the first part of http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication. The second one (vmail1.example.com) will be the failover server which we want to be a real-time mirror (but can be

ok a little bit more info .... My servers all run under FreeBSD 12.xx which was also the base for the apple operating system origionally. setting default_vsz_limit = 0 i seem to remember trying with no so great results setting to zero can cause memory over runs (espically with replication) etc i found that when i used the config i sent eariler (vsz_limit is defaulted (not set )) everything

Hello, We have one user who is complaining that he has lost mails from 3 imap folders, administered through squirrelmail. The folders suddenly appeared unregistered, and once manually registered they were empty. Has anyone observed something like this? We are running two servers (as VMs) with Dovecot v2.2.18, synced (two-way) using dsync. The configurations follow. Can you please help me

Hello, I am totally confused configuring replication in dovecot. In my case I have 2 servers instead of running rsync as a daemon which takes a lot of time I would like SERVER-A will be the master and SERVER-B will be the slave My users directly interact with server A, Server B stands as a mails backup only I've setup SERVER-B ( backup ) like that, NO SPECIAL CONF on master SERVER-A

I am using tinc to connect together VPCs in AWS across multiple regions and accounts to provide secure communication. For the most part, it works great. A few times, I have seen issues where something got into an unstable state that didn't seem to resolve itself. Shutting down tinc on all hosts and restarting seemed to do the trick, but I'd like to see if there is something that I can

HI, I would like to copy my file, i.e. test_file.cc on 1 host machine into another user's home directory i.e /usr/adm/ken_lee/ , on a different host machine. These 2 hosts machines, i.e host1 and host2 are on different NIS domains. I tried copying my file into the other user's home directory, by invoking the rsync command on my host machine i.e host1: # rsync -avzo
