similar to: pop3 exim4 dovecot

After adding the configuration bit: deny message = invalid recipient domains = +local_domains !verify = recipient/callout=no_cache from: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LMTP/Exim <http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LMTP/Exim> running update-exim4.conf and service exim4 restart the server is still accepting emails to recipients that do not exist in dovecot. Any ideas?

Hi Am running debian etch + exim4 + dovecot 1.0.rc15-2etch with both an IMAP and a POP3 server The issue is when i try and get my mail using the IMAP protocol outlook gives and error "cannot find Inbox on 192.0.0.1" its happens with thunderbird and with Kmail - I assume i have misconfigured it some how and my mail is set to "mail_spool" in Exim4 I have pasted the output of

hi! i'm trying to do smtp authentication using dovecot and exim4 by following this guide http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/EximAndDovecotSASL. for the exim4 part, i got an authenticator dovecot: cannot find authenticator driver "dovecot" ?error after i entered the codes in /etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template and reloaded exim4 with the update-exim4.conf command. i'm running debian

Hello, I just thought I would write this in case its useful to anyone. I've used dovecot for a while, as its so easy to set up, its fast and it and just "works". I recently wanted to be able to send via my server after pop3s authentication. I'm also running debian (testing) which utilises exim4 by default. I found no information about how to do it with this combination of

Hello, I have a Debian machine that is virtual-hosting 6 domains with exim4. I finally got exim4 working well enough where I can send and receive mail using the mail command on my machine. I would eventually like to have SquirrelMail (which requires IMAP) working on my website. For whatever reason, exim4 doesn't seem to support IMAP. I found out that Dovecot is a prominent IMAP server.

Hello, I'm using 0.99.14 with debian 2.6.8-2-386 #1 Tue Aug 16 12:46:35 UTC 2005 i686 GNU/Linux and exim4. I use the shared folder with symlinks, created by the script create_dovecot_shares-1.06. I have set the permissions and use umask 0007 on dovecot and in exim in maildir_home: directory_mode = 0770 mode = 0660 every thing works well, but if I'm moving a mail from my inbox

HI, I have a working exim4 + dovecot system that uses system user folders for the inbox. exim4: domains = dsearch;/etc/exim4/virtual dovecot: mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u - I would like to add additional virtual accounts using the method described in this post: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/302 exim4: /etc/exim4/conf.d/router/360_exim4-local_vdom_aliases

Hi Heiko, Here is the router: virtual_aliases: driver = redirect debug_print = "R: Check address using virtual_aliases for $local_part@$domain" allow_fail allow_defer hide data = CHECK_VIRTUAL_ALIASES user = vmail group = mail local_user: debug_print = "R: local_user for $local_part@$domain" driver = accept

Hi, I'm using mime-construct to send fax files (from an Asterisk server). mime-construct is using exim4 to have its job done. Trouble is I'm not pleased with the way I can link mime-construct and exim4 jobs (whenever an exim4 job fails, mime-construct exit code is still 0) : all I'm doing at the moment is reading exim4 and syslog log files for events matching. In syslog, I've

Hello all, I have a little problem. I'm trying to set up Dovecot deliver (1.0 beta 3) as the LDA for Exim4 on Ubuntu 6.06 with MBOX, and I'm running into permissions problems. Exim typically wants to run pipes as the user to whom the mail is being delivered (as per the "check_local_user"). deliver needs access to the auth socket and needs to be able to create files in /var/mail.

Hi, Previously I did /special/ processing for some email accounts; if a particular file existed in the user's home directory, then I caused the account to use /var/mail/$USER file for POP -- otherwise it used IMAP. Now, because I adjusted the setup for POP only, IMAP still worked perfectly well. Some users have both POP and IMAP access for various reasons. The special POP processing was

Hi, I have a mailsystem where i have some local users with shell access and full home dirs which receive mail and also several SQL virtual users only for mail. With the virtual users, everything works fine. Mail is delivered via LMTP and also sieve works :) The SQL Lookup knows what to do with username at domain.com The problem is the system user. If exim delivers the mail to the lmtp

Hi, When I enable (and it only happens when it is actually running) replication over TCP my users get duplicate mails via pop3. Here?s what happens: * User gets mail * Mail appears in (Maildir) new/ folder on both replicas * user retrieves mail (retr), calls dele. Mail still exists in new/ folder on both replicas. * user runs retr (and gets the duplicate) and dele a second time, the mail is

Hello I have just spent a happy day (!) configuring Exim4 to accept authenticated connections from full blown Outlook clients. That works. Unfortunately, by ticking the "Use SPA" box in Outlook it now demands SPA on the POP3 server as well. The existing POP3 server doesn't support this style of authentication. I believe Dovecot will. We're already using it as an IMAP

If this is an SMTP relay server, I'm surprised you bothered to install an IMAP server at all. It would have been easier to simply alias postmaster@ to another account on another machine where you do store mailboxes. I.e. simply

Hi! I have a problem involving Samba4, exim4, fetchmail, dovecot and PAM... I have setup a "maildrop" machine, which fetches mail from an external POP3 server for multiple accounts and then serves them locally via IMAP. On the same machine, I am currently running Samba 4.0.9 over Debian Wheezy. The idea is that fetchmail gets the mail, passes it to exim4, gets delivered to the "AD

Hi! I have a problem involving Samba4, exim4, fetchmail, Dovecot and PAM... I am using Dovecot 2.1.7 on Debian Wheezy. I have setup a "maildrop" machine, which fetches mail from an external POP3 server for multiple accounts using fetchmail, delivers to local users mailboxes through exim4 and then serves them on the intranet via IMAP with Dovecot. This works great with local unix users,

Hi folks Setting up a new server, hence a few software packages have been upgraded / changed. On my old server (only 2 years old) I was using Dovecot and RoundCube (web mail app) and had a good experience so was keen to use these again. The only major change is I have switched from sendmail to exim4 (which was installed by default on this Debian server). Exim4 appears to be doing the right

Hi, I am trying to setup dovecot replication based on: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication All mailboxes share the same UNIX userid ('vmail'), and I setup ssh-key based login for this account in both directions. As LDA exim4 is configured to use dovecot deliver LDA. Here is the relevant config from exim: /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d $local_part -f $sender_address -a
