similar to: Maildir Seen Flags not heeded when dovecot-shared present

Hi all, I was wondering if the above was possible. I know that the "seen" flag is stored in the filename, but was wondering if anyone knew of a way to separate it out? I know this would strictly-speaking break maildir compatibility, but it would be extremely useful for shared folders. I've been given the task of replacing the (extremely heavily used) shared folders functionality

Hi, I've just switched mail storage from maildir to mdbox and found it's very amazing. The only question I've is related to shared mailboxes. In the past I've had a few mailboxes that were shared between two users by just symlinking maildir. So everything was shared including flags and \Seen status. Now I want to get something like this. As far as I understand,

Hi list I'm trying to set up shared public folders with individual SEEN flags. I've set up three test users, but as soon as one of them marks a mail in the public folder as seen or unseen, that change is propagated to all three users. If I watch the dovecot.index.log file in each user's directory for the public folder, I see all three change their last access time as soon as one user

Hi, I'm trying to use dovecot for storing mailing lists and read-only access for users. The OS is Solaris, authentication for all readers of these lists are from Ldap through PAM, and one local user "listuser" will receive all mail and store them into it's folders (Maildirs). These maildirs are readable (read-only) for all others and they are shared by setting --- mail_location:

Hi all, I wanna to set up shared folders for a couple of users and I'd like that everyone could keep the \Seen flag as private. So if user #1 reads some messages and user #2 not, those messages appear as "unseen" to #2 and "seen" to #1. I've implemented shared folders using namespaces with every user having their own "control" and "private"

(Running Dovecot 1.1.0) Is it possible to either - (a) Still have shared "\Seen" flags even while using the dovecot-shared file or (b) Indicate to Dovecot in some way other than the dovecot-shared file which permissions to use for any messages created? The problem is, in my shared folder (using symlinks) scenario I am using, I have to use the dovecot-shared file to make sure new

Hi, I'm using dovecot 1.1.2 (but I've noticed this since 1.1.1 which I was using until yesterday). It seems dovecot is ignoring the "S" flag in Maildir filenames, and is relying only in its Index Files to determine if a message has been read or not. I say that because if I delete the dovecot.index.* files for a mail folder, all the mails in there appear as unread. Also,

Hi , Can we change the setting on dovecot so that the Seen mail flag S should be saved where everybody can see that and not in the dovecot.index file As we are facing problems with public folder read/unread mails. Any help is appreciated Thanks, Amardeep

Hello, i have a dovecot server version 2.3.1 under CentOS 6.9 and we're using shared mailboxes with index files shared. With this configuration I can see a lot of error messages like: Jun 6 13:20:31 mail dovecot: Error: imap(userA at tutech.de)<4513> <onjjWPdtDuLAqG3R>: /export/home/imap/userA at tutech.de/shared /userB at tutech.de/folder/dovecot.index.pvt view is

Hi there, It's my understanding that shared folders can be implemented in the Dovecot IMAP server by simply symlinking one maildir to another, eg: $ ls -lan /home/DOMAIN/ned/.maildir/ total 40 drwx------ 9 10012 10000 440 Jan 9 04:23 . drwxr-xr-x 3 10012 10000 160 Jan 6 06:32 .. drwx------ 5 10012 10000 264 Jan 9 04:21 .Deleted Items drwx------ 5 10012 10000 232 Jan 6

Hi I've added a server-side feature where authenticated customers sending through our SMTP server have their outbound mail copied to their Sent folder (like Gmail does). The delivery script called by qmail calls dovecot-lda to deliver it to the user's Sent folder. The problem now, is that the Sent folder shows the mail as unread, which MUAs flag (and notify, in the case of some).

I use public namespace for group mailboxes. If someone sends email from this mailbox , MTA detects it and delivers copy of that message to mailbox/Sent folder, to keep history of all messages available for every group member. I'd like to set Seen flag on all messages that dovecots deliver puts into "Sent" folder. Is it posible somehow?

Hi All, I have public mailboxes working with ACL's now, and I'm testing the ACL behavior. I've added lrws to two users so they can check off the messages they have read. I'm using CONTROL and INDEX in the location parameter for the namespace. It appears that if one user marks a message as read, all users see that message read. Is there any way to configure dovecot, so that

We started using Dovecot replication between two nodes and noticed that our configured private flags (INDEXPVT) in public/shared mailboxes are not replicated. We are only replicating INBOX namespace, as we dont want to replicate content of shared mailboxes for every user again. Is there a way to replicate the INDEXPVT or is that not (yet) implemented? Dovecot versions: # 2.2.31 (65cde28):

Hello all, after recent upgrade from 2.0.5 to 2.0.8 it seems that local seen flags for mails reside in shared mailboxes doesn?t work anymore. Before the upgrade I had read mails with account #1. Account #2 (who has access via acl) saw the mails still as unread. Now, no matter who read the mails, the other account see the same flags, immediately. I read the related wiki pages again and tried to

Hello, I have a Dovecot Installation Version 2.2.14 on CentOS 6.5 with shared folder. UserA shares his INBOX to user UserB. I activated "per user \Seen flags" with location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=%h/shared/%%u:CONTROL=%h/shared/%%u:INDEXPVT=%h/shared I think the INDEXPVT setting activates this setting, right? I activated this setting when there were already several accounts in

Hello list, I am trying to set up a public mailbox for users to put spam in so that sa-learn can do its job at night. Only I can't seem to fully understand how and which permissions should be set. I've read [1] and am using Dovecot 1.0.1. First some background information: I do not host or care (at the moment) about virtual users or virtual mail hosting. All users have Unix system

Dear all, sorry to bother the list again, I have a small configuration issue again with public (shared) folders. These folders should have per-user Seen flags, so I configured: namespace { type = public separator = . prefix = public. location = maildir:/var/mail/public:INDEX=%u/public subscriptions = no list = children } But this only seems to work with my account (presumably as I

I'm using procmail as the local delivery agent for Maildir style mailboxes. I discovered that I was able to send mail to other users but was unable to send mail to myself. Examples from verbose procmail log: **** Successful message to another user **** procmail: [24589] Fri Jun 2 15:03:34 2006 procmail: Assigning

Hi all, I'm using Debian (testing) for my office mail. I'm using sendmail and Dovecot to deliver email to clients over IMAP using mbox format. I want to move over and start using Maildir. I know that I can use different MTA's to do the job, but I really like sendmail, and I run additional sendmail servers across the my internal and external networks. I'm probably
