similar to: LDA vs maildrop... LDA *and* maildrop?

Hi there, I'm using Dovecot 2.0.9-1 under Arch Linux. Currently, I have Maildir configured, and I move all my emails into dovecot by using this sequence: 1) cron starts fetchmail periodically under user manfred to collect my mails from various email accounts. 2) In ~/.fetchmailrc I have configured /usr/bin/maildrop as MDA. 3) In ~/.mailfilter (used by maildrop) I have extensive filtering in

I need some advice about replacing maildrop with the Dovecot LDA. I need to replicate a setup that uses postfix+maildrop+spamassassin. We'll be using Dovecot 1rc13. In the current setup, maildrop reads a file called .mailfilter in each user's folder, then call spamassassin according to the user's preferences. The file is simple, and looks like this -- if ( $SIZE > 20971520 ) {

I'm using maildrop to filter mail like: xfilter "/usr/bin/spamc" xfilter "/usr/bin/bogofilter -ep" I want to change to deliver (so I can use sieve) but can deliver do this?

I'm using maildrop for delivery, because I want to filter through spamassassin before delivery. Maildrop makes that trivial. It seems deliver can pipe (one way) to a command, but what is needed is to pipe: deliver -> spamd -> deliver which is what the maildrop xfilter does.

Hi, recently I started using maildrop as a MDA doing lightweight filtering in a Postfix/Dovecot mail server combo. Only thing missing was the fact that maildrop couldn't perform user lookups against a user database that was already being served by Dovecot (for smtp auth in Postfix and for imap access obviously) in order to easily determinate proper mailbox location and home directory of

Hello list, Is there a way to call a spam filter in dovecot-lda like maildrop uses the xfilter command within the .mailfilter file to do the same? Eric

I'm currently using maildrop to do delivery, because I like to use it's xfilter to pipe through spamc. I don't see a similar option for dovecot's deliver. Is there something? It would be nice to use deliver, since I use dovecot for reading mail.

Hi, I?m using a multi-storage architecture in my email environment and maildrop as deliver command at mta. But to this deliver the mx servers mount nfs partitions - we need to use maildrop because many patches we inserted. How can I insert a piece of code at maildrop allowing it to update the dovecot indexes (which lib and/or function from dovecot I need to use ?) Best Regards, Fernando

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm having some problems with quota from sql (maildir++) and dovecot + maildrop. I'm using maildrop for MDA and dovecot as IMAP server. When an e-mail arrives, maildrop calculates the quota and updates the 'maildirsize' file. When i use dovecot (webmail, thunderbird) it updates the 'maildirsize' too, overwriting it, but in a

Hi, I'm working on a system that have about 350K e-mail users and 100k users that uses maildrop scripts to make filters on their delivery. So, changing scripts by hand can't be a choice. I "googled" so much and I wasn't able to find any script that converts maildrop scripts to sieve. Does anyone knows where can I find it? By the way, does anyone uses dovecot-1.1-beta on a

Hello, I currently use procmail without the deliver LDA but would like to switch to using deliver. I also would like to get away from procmail for various reasons. Otherwise I could use the procmail-patch from http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2006-July/014656.html AFAICS. I don't want to use sieve because it's too limited and can't see a similar patch like the one for

Hello, I just migrated from Postfix/Courier/Maildrop to Postfix/Dovecot/Deliver/Sieve and don't unterstand the right syntax for sieve :( I searched and found many small examples and many links to the RFC, but nothing was usefull for me (or i didn't unterstand it) I installed the latest Dovecot-Sieve (hg). Examples from my maildrop config: # Filter FROM if($E =~ /name at domain1\.tld/)

Hi all, I'm trying to implement quota support in postfix using maildrop + dovecot but I think dovecot doesn't update info stored in maildirsize file. # 1.0.2: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ listen: 127.0.0.1 ssl_listen: * ssl_ca_file: ... ssl_cert_file: ... ssl_key_file: ... ssl_cipher_list: ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2 login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable:

Looks to me your server is hacked through the webserver of website. Stop apache, flush the postfix queue, are there new mails entering you postfix queue? If not, hunt down the leak, if it does, its not apache2 ;-/ Greetz, Louis > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: HomerWSmith at lightlink.com > [mailto:owner-postfix-users at postfix.org] Namens Homer Wilson Smith >

Running RC2 with maildrop and MDA: dovecot writes a positive quota count, then the negative quota count on messages delivered with maildrop. For example, message #1 arrives via maildrop: 4488236 1 message is deleted via dovecot: 4488236 1 -4488236 -1 This does not happen when the user accesses the message, only when it is deleted. The user never gets credit for deleting

Dear list member, does anybody have a script which can convert maildrop filter to sive filter? BR Aleks

Can somebody provide maildrop syntax for using deliver-lda as final delivery program during sorting mail in user mailfilter? i mean replacement for "to" statement if ( /^(To|Cc):.*dovecot at dovecot.org/:h ) { to $MAIL/.dovecot/ }

Hello, I want to make final delivery for some of my mailboxes using dovecot-lda, since I'm interested in using sieve. My usual MDA which is called from postfix is and will be maildrop. First try was to call dovecot-lda from command line: /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d spam at xgm.de < testmail which gave return code 75 (EX_TEMPFAIL) and logged: dovecot: auth-worker(3533):

Hello, I'm having some problems getting LDA to work without userdb lookups and have a few related questions. This system has all users in MySQL, each user with unique UID/GID, no local users at all.? Installation is from apt-get. 1) If LDA is invoked without lookups, is it correct to assume that the "service auth" and "service auth-worker" can be completely removed
