I am switching from a fedora/postfix/mysql/couriermail/squirrelmail to Centos/.../dovecot/roundcubemail and adding postfixadmin to the mix.

Hi! I'm currently trying to migrate from courier-imapd to dovecot... Unfortunately I'm experiences some difficulties here... Since I don't want any user to notice the change of the server backend I've tried changing the namespace in dovecot.conf to namespace private { separator = . location = maildir:~/Maildir prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes

Hello, new here. I am a Centos/Fedora user, and for the past 3 years have been running my mail server using Postfix/MySQL/CourierMail/Squirrelmail on Fedora. The current incantation of the tutorial is at: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-users-and-domains-with-postfix-courier-mysql-and-squirrelmail-centos-6.2-x86_64 Well it is time to rebuild my mailserver; this time on Centos 6.3.

I have a quite old home server based on Debian 6.x packages using courier imap server (exim4, fetchmail, courier, apache2, squirrelmail) to keep my and my wife emails (about 25G). I want renew my server to Debian 10 (buster) and got a recommendation to use dovecot instead of courier. For this purpose I'm using a different PC as a sandbox. Debian 10 currently offer dovecot version 2.3.4.1

I currently run postfix and courier on my mail servers with squirrelmail. The problem with courier is it seems to run so slow. The webmail takes forever to load if you have many mails. I have this set up in virtual domains with all longin and path info in an mysql database. I just joined the list and DID google before asking, hope this isn't a common question. With courier it looks for a

Hi, I have a redhat server running courier-imap + squirrelmail webmail. I am migrating to dovecot... the problem is - the existing sub-folders are all disappear from the folder list. What can I do to fix this problem? Thanks, Jerry Chiu

Hi everyone, I have a client I've been trying to talk into switching from courier to dovecot, but the owner of the company wants me to set up two different accounts in Thunderbird (I finally got him switched to that from outlook express), one accessing his account through courier, and one through dovecot, so he can compare the speed... Is this even possible? I've never tried it

hi! does anyone has a good howto, docs how to set up an smtp, pop3, imap server, with webmail, and has anti virus solution, and even spam filtering? :D [plus secure connection for the clients :D ] wich softwares are the best for this? [e.g.: "vsftpd is the most secure ftp server"..] users would be from /etc/passwd [so not virtual users] thank you! p.s.: I've already googled :(

Hello Gang, I am new to dovecot and the only reason (so far) I would like to use dovecot, and in production with 12k+ users, is the fact that it's supposed to be faster and less of a resource hog. Now, sometimes I am really good at reading the documentations but it sometimes happens that one overlooks something. I did read the migration notes three times! My users are in /etc/passwd and I

CentOS Community, I was wondering if anyone had a good resource or procedure for a step by step in installing a mail server with Centos. There ARE documents on google, however almost all that i've found were outdated from 2005. Does anyone know where I can find this type of document for a mailserver Postfix + MySQL + SpamAssassin + ClamAV + Squirrelmail + Postfixadmin, etc?

How can I define a local use with "@" in the name useradd "bob at myname" gives error. I "need" to have the @ sign in the name -is that possible. Silly reason - the system I am trying to send emails to the linux server has a bug. I'm trying to get around it. Thanks, Jerry

Hello, I've been testing dovecot, and it appears to be much faster then courier-imap. I am using the latest .99 version, trying to make the transition from courier to dovecot as smooth as possible. We really only use IMAP via squirrelmail, I think I've got that worked out fine, changing a few settings in squirrelmail as the FAQ instructs and migrating the courier subscriptions to

Hi, I setup squirrelmail with dovecot and everything worked. I moved users Maildir directores to ~/Maildir/INBOX.directory/ and updated the .subscriptions file to something like ^INBOX.directory squirrelmail picks this up, but I can't seem to get mutt to read this style. In fact I would have assumed that dovecot would read ~/Maildir/ as INBOX and everything under it as it stands, without

I have been struggling with getting my Fedora 7 box set up to use dovecot with Squirrelmail and Maildir. It works correctly with the exception of writing outgoing mail to the right folder (.Sent) or drafts (.Drafts). If I send a mail with Mutt, it writes the mail to the right place, so it has to be squirrelmail config or dovecot config. I want to use .Sent for sent-mail (~user/Maildir/.Sent) and

Hello. I apologize if there is a simple answer to this question, but I haven't been able to figure it out. Our people use various clients (pine 4.50 with maildir patch, eudora, messenger, outlook, squirrelmail), and all of them work with courier-imap. But I've become very interested in dovecot after reading about it, so I'm trying it out on another server. The results are mixed.

Greetings, I have long read and followed this list. I have also spent a considerable time with our good friend Google. I am a long time Sendmail user, about 15 yrs now. I have recently been looking into the newer services and the Postfix setup seems to be a very nice one. I am migrating a mail server from 3.x to 4.x and was intending on trying out Postfix on the 4.x server. I have found

Hi all, I am migrating a maildir Courier-IMAP installation to Dovecot. Almost everything seems to work well, but I still have problems accessing subfolders. First let's see what I have done. I used the courier-dovecot-migrate.pl script suggested in http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier to convert mailboxes from Courier to Dovecot. No problems here. My dovecot.conf contains this: (...)

I am converting from courier and have noticed change in behaviour with Dovecot. I use maildirs with squirrelmail connecting by imap as well as a POP3 client. Courier would set the 'mail status-read' flag for any message which was downloaded with the POP3 interface. Dovecot apparently does not. Is this a bug or intended behaviour? If it is intentional, can it be changed with the config

I have installed Postfix, Dovecot, and Squirrelmail on a CentOS 5.5 machine. In Squirrelmail a user can send mail, but he is not receiving replies. There is nothing relevant in the maillog other than the user's (successful) login attempts. I am at loss, I have been following tutorials such as the Perfect Server [1] series and other Google results, but I cannot get this thing to receive mail.
