similar to: mdbox: more then one altstorage

Hello, first time here. I am playing with Dovecot because of its mdbox storage, SIS feature and altstorage ability. I authenticate against LDAP (passdb), but I don't fetch operational data from LDAP (mail_locations are static from config files and "user_attrs = =uid=500, =gid=500, =home=/maildata1/home/%d/%1n/%n"). On a daily basis I run "doveadm altmove -A savedbefore

Hello list. Following two previous unanswered requests (http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-August/097449.html and http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-May/096261.html), I fell into the same problem: ACL and lazy_expunge plugins do not work together. I had lazy_expunge enabled working OK. Then I activated ACL plugin, and gave dovecot.2 visibily over paolo.cravero's Inbox: the IMAP

Hi all, in my settup i decided to set mail_home in 10-mail.conf, and let dovecot do the hashing to a 2-level directory structure. mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox:ALT=/altstorage/%h/mdbox mail_home = /vmail/%1Mu/%2.1Mu/%u In my userdb ist homedirectory not set and everythink works as expected, except when i use rawlog i get only logs in ~/dovecot.rawlog if home is set in userdb.

Hi, we are thinking about storing older mails (eg. safed before 6 months) to an alternative storage mounted via NFS from an external storage box. Some technical details - the storage will be connected via 1 gbit ethernet. Access will be allowed from different dovecot servers, but only to divided directories for each dovecot. - storage has the option to use RAID 5 or 6. Max. amount of Disks are

Hi I'm very new to Dovecot (been using Courier for 5 years), but I've been persuaded of the merits of Dovecot and since the server needs upgrading that seems like the perfect time/excuse. On a test server, I set up postfix and installed Dovecot (running 32-bit Debian Squeeze, installed from apt-get). I mirrored the mail store (Maildirs, for historical reasons located under

I am interested in finding out your experiences with using the dbox format (especially mdbox) if you use this format. I am contemplating changing my maildir setup to mdbox but I still need to make a case for it against maildir which has become a de-facto standard and provides sort of a secure basis in case of software changes. Your input will be appreciated. -- Andreas Kasenides Senior IT

Hello, i have to backup (tape library) a mailsystem with about 300.000 Mailboxes on 2 backends. Summary of all mailboxes are 2 TByte. The mailstore is mdbox. Is it save to do a simple filesystem backup (full and incremental) with backupsoftware? What is the prefered strategy to do a backup for desaster recovery (mailsystem crash) and restoring single usermailboxes? Regards, Claus

Andreas, > I am interested in finding out your experiences with using the dbox > format (especially mdbox) if you use this format. mdbox is THE reason why I am trying Dovecot. With mailboxes of several (tens of) GB with several k of messages I hope mdbox will speedup backups. Also SIS for attachments sounds very good, but still doesn't follow the altstorage rules (while messages go to

Good day! is there an easy way to restore e.g. deleted mails and/or mail directories? let me specify: I'm running dovecot 1.2.9 on a current ubuntu lts. It is set to Maildir and I backup the folder with the users maildata nightly via rsync. now, when someone deletes a mail that they still need, and I copy it back from the backup, it will not be visible to mail clients. When I change the

Hi, we start to run out of diskspace soon as our users start to keep mails for longer time periods. That's fine, but space consuming. The maildirs are about 1 TB in total, and not long ago we enabled zlib which is very nice. Now I have some thoughts about the next steps: a) Migrating the whole system to a new server with more storage? b) Install a virtual server for the mailsystem and an

The easiest way if you have only very few users is to just copy the files into correct place.

Hello. Before going into deep testing of 2.2.16 (clean install tbd), I would like to know if someone is using succesfully both ACL and Lazy_expunge plugins. Perhaps I had a config error?

my mailsystem is using postfix and virtual mailbox which stored in mysql db. SMTP AUTH is using PAM, pam-mysql to authenticate against a mysql db. I installed dovecot 0.99-14. In the dovecot example config file it mentioned that auth_passdb can check against thru PAM but auth_userdb didn't Does it mean that auth_userdb should use other means e.g. /etc/passwd, shadow, vpopmail, etc and in my

My mail server consumed all of its configured file table slots and started returning ENFILE ("Too many open files in system") for many operations. This wreaked havoc with dovecot-1.1.13. Here are some areas where dovecot should detect and more gracefully handle ENFILE error returns: 1. Deliver should report an error more helpful than "Unknown internal error" when

Hi I'm migrating some mailboxes from an old dovecot system where mailboxes are stored maildir uncompressed. I enabled zlib on the new system and migrated an account: doveadm -o mail_fsync=never backup -R -u tonyg imapc: when the account connects to the new system after a while i'm seeing the following error and the mailbox is no longer functioning: Jan 15 13:58:06 S611 dovecot:

Hi, I have mailsystem with virtual users only (/home/vmail/domain/user). I need to integrate RT3.x (a ticketing system). I have installed the client but I need to send mail to a pipe.

What is the right way to achieve that mail to rt at mydomain is
