we have some replication issues. From time to time a doveadm-server process takes 100% cpu in the state recv_mailbox_tree_deletes on the replica. The process runs forever until it is manually killed. Strace on this process doesn't show anything. Sometimes we have several doveadm-server processes in this state, all for the same account, all with 100% CPU Load. The logfile on the master says:

Hi there, I am trying to move from lmtpd (lmtpd.sf.net) to dovecot sieve. One thing used by some of powerusers are archiving mail automatically with autocreated folders based on year + month. Is there any good way to make that with sieve... One example require "fileinto"; if address :is ["From", "To"] "dovecot at dovecot.org" { fileinto

Hi, having the attached configuration with Dovecot 2.2.9, Dovecot's crashing when moving a mail from a shared folder into another shared folder. Moving that mail into a "real" folder of the user or moving that mail from a real folder into the shared folder is always working. But moving from a shared folder into a shared folder doesn't work.

After a filesystem crash dovecot isn't able to repair some of the m-Files.

Hi Timo, we wrote a simple Patch for the Dovecot quota policy daemon. If a user is over quota, I prefer blocking the user sending e-mails, so I need a policy daemon, that's able to use the envelope or sasl sender as lookup key. I'd be happy if that patch can become part of the normale Dovecot releases. Peer -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Re: Fwd: Quota-Patch Datum:

i can't delete several folders at once. I have a folder structure like folder1/folder2/folder3 (we use slash as hierarchy separator).

I am struggling with an archive namespace. I am not sure if this is can solved. But if you right click in apple mail on a message and choose archive. It wants to move the message to the folder Archive folder (marked in the attached). If I set inbox=yes it is possible to move the mail in this folder, but then I get other problems (two namespaces with inbox=yes). When I leave it inbox=no, I get

Hi, I have a complicated SQL backend with stored procedures to generate passdb/userdb queries. This result have the proxy-attribute set and it's very complicated to change that procedures. On one system I tried to override/delete the proxy attribute: passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext override_fields = proxy=n } Looks like that doesn't work.

Hello, we are running Dovecot (2.2.13-12~deb8u1) on Debian stable. Configured with Mailbox++, IMAP, POP3, LMTPD, Managesieved, ACL. Mailboxes are on local 1.2TB RAID, it's about 5310 accounts. We are slowly getting out of space and we are considering to move Mailboxes onto Netapp disk array with two independent network connections. Are there some pitfalls? Not sure we should use NTP or

We're running Dovecot in a multipe instance cluster with individual userdb-querys to different LDAP-Servers. As far as I can see there's no way to use the doveadm mailbox command with different Auth-Sockets or different configurations.

Having > 10 TByte mailstore filesystem-checks takes too much time. At the moment we have four different partitions, but I don't like to set symlinks or LDAP-flags to sort customers and their domains to there individual mount-point. I'd like to work with mdbox:/mail/%d/%n to calculate the path automatically. How do you handle >> 10 TB mailstore? I'm very interested in the

Using doveadm penalty I just noticed a penalty for 0.0.0.0. Is this Postfix querying the auth-socket for his SASL-requests? I tried adding 0.0.0.0 to login_trusted_networks, but that doesn't help.

We're using doveadm/dsync/imapc to migrate accounts from Courier to Dovecot 2.2.20. On the source-server some user have folder names including a "%" in their name.
