Hello, I have a user sharing a folder to me (and other users). This has worked for me for a time. And it is still working for some users, but not for me. I'm using thunderbird (17.0.3, ubuntu 12.04 package). My server is dovecot 2.1.9 (it's the same since it works). The user sharing its mailbox is: $ sudo doveadm user t userdb: t home : /home/generica/02/001002 uid

Hello, I'm running dovecot 2.1.16 in a ubuntu 12.04 server, with lazy_expunge, SiS and mdbox format. The problem I'm having is that the index for one the mailboxes of one of my users is growing too much. This is not the first time of this problem. In previous cases, is because a message is duplicated thousand of times (I haven't found any reason for this). In these cases,

Hello, We are having performance problems trying to migrate our pop/imap servers to a new version. Our old servers are 4 debian lenny with 5GB of RAM running of XenServer VMs with kernel 2.6.32-4-amd64 and dovecot 1.1.16. New servers are 4 ubuntu 12.04 with dovecot 2.1.5 running on vmware vm with 6 cores and 16GB of RAM and kernel 3.2.0-24-generic. On both server we are using nfs 3 with

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, We have two (load balanced) director servers in front of 4 dovecot backend servers. Yesterday we had a problem at backend servers for some users (our SSO was down, so IMAP users couldn't authenticate) and this triggered a problem in director servers where almost nobody could open a new session. In our director's logs I could see errors like this: Mar 20 20:52:47 myotis41

Hello, In my system I have configured auth caching. The problem I have is that whenever a user changes his password, he/she can't login to dovecot after a while and the scenarios described at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/Caching are not applied. I have tried also with "doveadm auth cache flush <login>", but it didn't work. He also could to login again if

Hello, I have configured director in front of dovecot imap/pop/lmtp servers. When I need to manipulate a user mailbox, I use doveadm commands at director server's, with -S option. But some commands return exit code 139 when command returns more than 40 entries (I think). For example, the command: sudo doveadm fetch -u amateo hdr mailbox Trash HEADER Subject "nyctalus11/"

Hello, We still have problems with our updated dovecot servers... The problem now is that we are having errors like: Jul 9 10:22:02 myotis31 dovecot: lmtp(15431, <user>): Error: Timeout (180s) while waiting for lock for transaction log file /var/indexes/<user>/.INBOX/dovecot.index.log Jul 9 10:22:02 myotis31 dovecot: lmtp(15431, <user>): Error: +4YfCwKS+k9HPAAAmo+UlA:

Hello, I'm in the process of migrating mailbox from one dovecot server running dovecot 2.1.9 with mailboxes stored in maildir format to a newer one running 2.1.16 with mailboxes stored in mdbox format. To migrate mailboxes I'm using dsync as explained at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Dsync. The command I'm running in the newer server is: sudo dsync -o mailbox_list_index=no

Hello, I'm having a problem with with password changing. According to http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/Caching, I understand "normal scenario" and "Using old cached password scenario", but I'm having a problem with the "Early change scenario".

Hello, I'm trying to configure lazy_expunge plugin (as a way to provide easy backup for mails).

Hello, I'm trying to use dsync to copy mail from one server to a newer one, so I'm using imapc as source (when running dsync in the destination server). The command I'm using is like this: sudo dsync -vD -o imapc_user="<myuser>*master" -o imapc_password="<master pass>" -o imapc_host=<original server> -o imapc_features=rfc822.size -o

Hello, One of my users has a mailbox named 'INBOX.Kron & SPM' (maybe created a long time ago, when we use courier imap as pop/imap server, but I'm not sure).

Hello, I'm running dovecot 2.1.9 and I'm trying to configure shared folders.

Hello, Since I have activated acl plugin, master password is no longer working. I'm running dovecot 2.1.9 with master password and acl plugin (among others). I have attached my configuration.

Hello, Last days we had to restore some mailboxes from backup. Our mailboxes are in maildir format and during restore, some duplicated files appeared. The situation is: * A user has messages in his new directory when the backup is made * In some moment after the backup is done, the user accesses to his mailbox, so the message is move to the cur directory. * We restore his mailbox directly to

Hi, I'm using autoexpunge to clean my users' Trash and Spam mailboxes. But I'm also using lazy_expunge to keep a copy of deleted messages. Is there any to configure lazy_expunge namespace to be autoexpunged too? My lazy_expunge configuration is the "1 Namespace" described at https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Lazyexpunge -- Angel L.
