similar to: Dovecot newbie (migrating from qmail)

Hi, during the weekend I upgrade my mail servers from dovecot 2.1.13 to dovecot 2.1.14 (and rebuild dovecot-2.1-pigeonhole-0.3.3). After upgrade all works fine, but today the load avarage un MXs is doubled. Mailboxes are in Maildir/ on NFS and I'm using dovecot as LDA and dict quota only for quota usage. May be a problem with the new version? This is my configuration: $ ./configure

Hi, i'm testing Dovecot LDA to works with qmail and vpopmail.

Hi, has anyone seen this issue before as I have not. I'm a long time dovecot user and I don't see anything in the config that should cause this. The mail.log gets hit a lot of times with this same log message: dovecot: imap-login: Maximum number of connections from user+IP exceeded (mail_max_userip_connections) I have noted that it is more evident when I try to mass delete many

Hello, Is there any command to be able to lock imap access to a specific user? With doveadm kick I could close his connections, but I want to avoid future ones too and just for imap.

Hello, i've found an old thread [1] where it was stated that a whole mailbox can be made read-only only setting the according permissions on the filesystem side. [1] http://www.mailinglistarchive.com/html/dovecot at dovecot.org/2011-12/msg00300.html i'd like to check if it's still the only option we have with dovecot v2.0.18 .

Hi, I'm using Dovecot 2.1.8. Is it possible to deactivate the "W=" Maildir filename extension, so that dovecot not add it to maildir filenames?

Hi. Even new mails delivered by my MDA don't get the ,S= and ,W= fields set... (but when I "upload" a mail via IMAP to dovecot, they are set) Is there some place in dovecot where I need to enable this? Or would it be the MDA that has to calculate and set this already when placing a file in ./new? Thanks, Chris. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was

I am working on setting up dovecot 2.2.12 with an installed qmail + vpopmail 5.5.0 base. So far I have not had much luck getting the auth to work with vpopmail. Does dovecot 2.2.12 work with vpopmail 5.5.0? So far when I try to authenticate I always get back User Unknown in the log. Thanks

Hi, I'm a recent convert to dovecot, and in general it is all working fine. However, I have a number of cron jobs set up to purge old messages from mailboxes. These don't seem to be doing what I would expect. Is there any way of debugging this process? Some way of seeing what messages it's checking, and why each one matches or fails to match? For example, I'm running this:

Hello list. Anybody having experience with the Apple Extensions for Dovecot at http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/dovecot/dovecot-239.8/dovecot/src/imap/cmd-x-apple-push-service.c ? Is it possible to patch the Dovecot source with them and get them to work on a Non-Apple System? Cheers, Volker ??

Hi to all, i have qmail installed on my system with dot-qmail files format to deliver to mailbox (maildir format with dovecot 2.2.12); currently i use LDA to delivery agent but we would migrate to LMTP is it possible? and if yes someone could bring me to the right direction to implement this? thanks. -- *Davide Marchi* *T*eorema *F*errara *Srl* Via Spronello, 7 - Ferrara - 44121 Tel.

Hello list, Here is the problem: I have few: passdb { #1 } passdb { #2 } And relative userdb sections. If user not found in 1) section it fallbacks to next one - it's expected and right, IMHO. But when the user exists in both section and password verification fails on 1) database it successfully authenticated on next one. I think this behaviour should be configured. The main goal of 1)

Hello all, Is there a way to use LMTP (or LDA) so that maildir index and dovecot-uidlist are not updated? My setup is such that mail delivery sees user's maildir as write only. This setup works well when using postfix for mail delivery, but when I try to switch to dovecot LMTP the lmtp process wants to read the dovecot-uidlist and fails on insufficient privileges. Is there a way around this

Hello, I'm deploing a new email cluster using Dovecot over GFS2. Actually I'm using courier over GFS. Actually I'm testing Dovecot with these parameters: mmap_disable = yes mail_fsync = always mail_nfs_storage = yes mail_nfs_index = yes lock_method = fcntl Are they correct? RedHat GFS support mmap, so is it better to enable it or leave it disabled? The documentation suggest the

So, just some quick notes: - dovecot.org server was down a couple of days again, need to find time to move it to a VM.. - my tss at iki.fi emails were also broken for some hours at least and it was bouncing back all mails to it during the time - I fixed some bugs reported by people, but I did it in airplane so couldn't reply back with links to the fixes in hg repo. I'll probably do

Hi, on dovecot 2.1.14 and pigeonhole-0.3.3 after creating a default.sieve like this: require ["vnd.dovecot.duplicate", "fileinto", "mailbox"]; if duplicate { fileinto "Trash"; } I have two strange errors, one is many of this error in lda.log: Feb 19 14:43:17 lda(info at domain.com): Error:

Hi, can we prevent download messages from server user by user ? sme common used mail's message must be remain at the server, but sometimes we download them ? thanks in advance -- Sel?uk YAZAR

I noticed that disabling services using vpopmail was not being recognized by dovecot. Using "vmoduser -swip user at domain.com" should disable all services, but both pop and imap logins were still allowed. After a bit of digging in the code and confirming with a few debug lines, it appears that lines 38 and 52 of src/auth/passdb-vpopmail.c are the issue (dovecot 2.0.8). These two

Hi, I'm using dict quota with mysql for track them via SQL query instead of read maildirsize file. Primary quota and enforcing is provided via userdb and is "maildir" type. Since dovecot 2.1.10-13 (but perhaps even before) when a new user log in via POP/IMAP or receive an email for the first time dovecot created the entry for the users in the table "quota" of dovecot
