similar to: mbox vs. maildir storage block waste

Since I am using dovecot I do not have courier installed, but Courier had a very handy tool for making maildir folders called `maildirmake` which I used in some automated backup scripts. How do I duplicate maildirmake in dovecot? for example: #!/bin/bash # v1.2a Testing for new dovecot install # Archive mail from folders without [0-9]{4} Maildirs # after they are 21 days old to a yearly folder

Hello, I'm configurating dovecot 1.0.3 on debian etch. While trying to set public folders, y decided to have the index and control files on the users homes. those homes are mounted by nfs, with disabled access to root. In that scenario, I'm getting the errors i transcribe next: Aug 16 11:21:17 server dovecot: IMAP(user):

OK, I am brand new to this so please bear with me. I have an FreeBSD 6.1 STABLE system. Postfix is installed with qpopper. The mailboxes are standard mbox format. I just installed Dovecot. At some point I want to update to a mdir format, etc., but quite frankly I do not know how to go about that. In any case, I shut down qpopper and started Dovecot. I modified the Dovecot.conf file SSL settings

Hello All, I am new to Dovecot and the Dovecot mailing list. I am trying to migrate an existing Exim + qpopper - mbox (pop3 only) installation over to Exim + Dovecot using mdir (pop3 and imap) And am running into problems with preserving the XUIDL headers. I am running Dovecot 2.0.14 I have used the mb2md.pl script : http://dovecot.org/tools/mb2md.pl from this page

hi all, "uncle"! i've thrown up my hands with cyrus, and am looking for a 'better alternative' ... i'm brand new to dovecot (haven't even built it yet ...), and have spent the last while reading through the LIST archives here. apart from the TECHNICAL aspects, which seem _more_ than adequate/competitive, i'm most attracted by a comment abt this

Hi, We actually have a mail hosting solutions with aprox. 100 thousand of email account, where about 90% of a customers use POP3 like email configuration. About a few mounths (we perfomed a lot of migration throught mbox email software to Maildir with dovecot) but i can see that the performance is very poor and receive complaint about delays of autentications of accounts. The solution

Hi, sorry if this is old stuff, but I did my best to look first... Have been getting errors along these lines: mv mydir mdir.2002 ln -s mydir.2002 mydir Then update mirror with rsync -av --delete-after. Without --delete-after, no problem, with --delete-after, get a code 23. The attached shell script will recreate the error (on my machine, at any rate). Just run it from a clean directory.

hi there, i am totally new to dovecot and use communigate pro stalker.com as my mailserver. everything in communigate is fine. the only problem i do have is imap speed. i just got a login at a dovecot server and i must say WOW its so fast amazing. since communigate does not support indexing on mdir direcotries i need to find a solution. so i am wondering if it would be possible to use

I'd like to hear the thoughts of list members on which type of storage method seems "best" for inboxes and for folders. The filesystem is GFS2 and for various reasons I can't change it. Inboxes - currently Mbox format. Some users have upwards of 5000 messages in there (the largest is about 18k entries) and thanks to attachments some inboxes are 40-200Mb with a few sitting at

Hi. For mbox, http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/mbox#Dovecot.27s_Metadata lists a numer of mail headers: - X-IMAPbase - X-IMAP - X-UID - Status - X-Status - X-Keywords - Content-Length that are treated specially by dovecot. It also suggests, that these should be stripped by the LDA (I guess in order that someone sending you such mail cannot set the status or keywords, or even "attack

Mandrake may operate that way, but RedHat does _not_ -- at least that has been my experience.

I'm a bit surprised: everybody's talking about ReiserFS and even IBM's alpha-staged JFS (a lot of promise here, though - sometime, in the future) and XFS has been barely mentioned! I've been using XFS for 8 months now, with nothing but excellent results. I have a test machine, that duplicates *exactly* the hardware/software configuration of the main server and I'm using it to

Peter, One other thing. The first two times it crashed I erased the file tree created by rsync so that the snaphot started from scratch again. Each of these two times it got to exactly the same file: usr/lib/locale/es_CO/LC_COLLATE when it crashed. That was when I stopped rebuidling and re-cabling my hardware, because I saw a determinate pattern in the crashes... (sheepish) should have said

This is a big of a nag, but mostly truth. Hear me out. Most of users' problem with the email is the lack of spiffy graphics. I don't understand why people rant and rave onver the email because it doesn't have spiffy graphics. Also, this extends to HTML formatting. They want to be able to use god awful formatting and colors and fonts that make your stomach churn, or at least hurt
