Hi, is it possible to ask Dovecot for a users quota by talking to the Dovecot server over TCP? I know about doveadm quota -u <user>, but I would like to know, if I can query for that over a network connection (on the Postfix ML they suggested writing a policy service that checks quota. Postfix is not always on the same server as Dovecot is). Does the LMTP protocol give that information

Hi all Is it possible to configure Dovecot's sieve plugin to act on message arrival to folders, other than INBOX? I wish to move messages fetched by pop3 fetcher to special folder, or sort outgoing mail to folders, specific to their recipients. Thanhs in advance, WBR, valery

Hi, we have customers with Exchange servers that are polling for new mail every minute with dozens of pop3 accounts. I am looking for a mechanism to rate limit this per user. So what I am looking for is a way to block users from polling, if a user asks for new mail more than every 5 minutes (for example). Is this possible? Can this be achieved within Dovecot or does it need external scripting?

Hi, I have an already working dovecot server on Ubuntu 10.04 with self-created packages version 2.1.13. This setup is working prefect. Now that I do not wish to continue using Ubuntu (to much work for Upgrading), I decided to switch to Gentoo, as I had made best experiences in the past? I have installed Dovecot on Gentoo and I copied over all my configs and certs and stuff. Also created a user

Hi all, I've a problem with dovecot-2.1.10. At time we use dovecot-1.2 without zlib. We setup a new server with dovecot 2.1.10. After syncing the emails everything looks fine. But if we use zlib plugin all new emails have no content. There are a lot of "Error: Maildir filename has wrong S value" log entrys. So we have compiled dovecot-2.0.18 and we use exactly the same

Hi, I would like to add a feature to my email-client (Thunderbird) which stops emails from showing up until a specific time (e.g. having buttons for: show again this evening, tomorrow, next week, next month ...). As far as I've learned this is not possible with IMAP: - storing the 'do-not-show-until-time' within a custom header-field requires down- and uploading of the whole email and

We consider deploying a two server active-active setup with dsync replication for ~2500 users. I was wondering how people handle sieve script synchronization in such setups. We came up with a few options for syncing: 1) rsync/unison ~/sieve every x seconds 2) move sieve dirs to separatate partition and sync with gluster or drbd 3) patch roundcube managesieve sieve plugin to upload

Finally got Dovecot to work on ports 100 and 143. I would like to a) Learn about ACL esp on port 110 as there are still yodellaks that try to brake in on port 110. b) Setting up separate SSL cert for imaps and pop3s. -- For effective Internet Etiquette and communications read http://catb.org/jargon/html/T/top-post.html, http://idallen.com/topposting.html &

Greetings, A probably simple question and answer: can a sieve script be executed on outgoing messages? I already use deliver on postfix, perhaps the sieve script could be executed when saving to the Sent folder? Regards, -- Marcio Merlone

# dovecot --version 1.2.15 We're trying to migrate a server from Cyrus to Dovecot, and we're mostly there. On Cyrus, the folder layout in the MUA is: INBOX subfolder subfolder ...

Hi, My setup: Dovecot 2 latest, installed to replace courrier IMAP, and off course configured with the dot separator and all folder under INBOX.*. The problem: My phone was driving me mad during the test, due that it will only recognize Inbox. How found the solution: I've started sniffing IMAP traffic on my server and ended up with one difference: On courier it ask for namespace, on

Chaps, What's the story with anti-spam on dovecot ? Do we have something working out of the box, so to speak ? Any guidance / ideas ? s. ? ---- "I merely function as a channel that filters music through the chaos of noise" - Vangelis

Hello, While monitoring my servers' behaviour (ubuntu 12.04 with dovecot 2.1.9, with about 70000 users) I have found that lots of disk usage is done by dovecot process (the parent process). Since lmtp, imap and pop3 connections are handle by their own process, what could be the reason of this? -- Angel L. Mateo Mart?nez Secci?n de Telem?tica ?rea de Tecnolog?as de la Informaci?n y las

Hello all, the dovecot wiki recommended that the index and control files for maildir be placed on a partition which does not have a quota. I have a VPS which gives me 20 gigs of space. Since space is tight, is there some way to calculate how much space the partition needs for the control and index files? Would 1 gig be sufficient in the long run?

I would like to be able to migrate messages from existing end-user accounts on Sun Messaging Server to Office 365 using an administrator login and password. Unfortunately the migration tool for Office 365 doesn't support SASL AUTHENTICATE PLAIN login. The online documentation I've found suggests that I should be able to configure dovecot as an IMAP proxy and have it log in to Sun

Hi, Does anyone here know a trusted package repository for Ubuntu LTS which has always the latest version of Dovecot? Thanks ! -- Thiago Henrique adminlinux.com.br

Hello, I have a dovecot IMAP server (relative small hardware: HP Microserver with 6 Gbyte RAM, linux soft RAID1 with 2x 7200 SATA disk) with 100 Gbyte maildirs. Server works fine but sometimes I can open mails slowly (5-10 sec), typical with new mails. It's intresting when I open an another old mail (with 0 sec wait), after new mail open quickly. Is it dovecot mail indexes or I/O problem?
