similar to: From Sendmail to Dovecot mdbox, what is missing.

Hi, I experince some problems with setting up Sendmail with the LDAP database for virtual mail accounts. Why i'm not writing to the LDAP mailing list? I believe, that the reason of my problem is in configuring dovecot-deliver. What i have: ?- FreeBSD ?- sendmail (Version 8.14.4 with LDAP support installed from ports)? ?- Dovecot LDA + dovecot (as pop3/imap) ?- Cyrus Sasl (authdaemon for

Hi, I can't seems to find any posting on how to configure sendmail to use dovecot as lmtp. All I see is using it as LDA. I am particularly interested on how to tell sendmail to ask dovecot to deliver the message to the user. In the wiki for lda it says to add the following in the sendmail config: FEATURE(`local_procmail',

Hi, I have a Centos 5 system with sendmail running as my MTA. Normally I note from sendmail logs that mails get delivered using the 'local' mailer. I have therefore entered the following into my sendmail.mc file, from an earlier post on this list: define(`LOCAL_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver') define(`LOCAL_MAILER_FLAGS',`DFMPhfnu9')

Hi all, After looking at the LDA/Sendmail page in the dovecot wiki, I wanted to contribute another method to easily configure Sendmail to use deliver. Instead of adding a new mailer definition, as already suggested, one can simply use the following line in their sendmail.mc file instead: FEATURE(`local_procmail', `/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver', `deliver -d $u',

Need help with setup/config. Current situation: (dovecot version : 1.1.7) we have system users and virtual users. (with different domains) Virtual users have procmail as LDA Now we want "deliver" to become the LDA I'm confused reading http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sendmail sendmail.mc: divert(-1) divert(0)dnl include(`/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4')dnl

I have an existing setup with sendmail, dovecot, on debian. I want to move LDA and move from using mbox to using Maildir. I have only 'real' users and aliases, no virtual users. What is a recommended, trouble free, LDA setup? procmail is of course on possibility, but I'd be unlikely ever to use any of its advanced features, just simple local mail delivery. I'd like to use

With this setting, all folders are empty, I guess understandable, because the mdbox has its own indexes stored locally with it. Does not explain though why inbox is empty.

Hi, I'm having trouble setting up sendmail to be able to use dovecot deliver as an LDA... I don't want to be able to deliver mail locally, everything should go via deliver (virtual user setup)... And i'm confused about all the procmail/lda entry's in different sendmail config files... When using $# deliver -u testuser < testmail <-- he delivers my mail in the correct

I'm trying to set up dovecot's deliver program as the lda for sendmail. I seem to need a config file for it '/etc/dovecot-deliver.conf'. Is there any documentation for this configuration file and it's contents? sendmail will call it under the recipient's uid, and all it has to do is drop the message into the proper maildir as defined in /etc/dovecot.conf and update

Hi, I have a strange problem here. I had installed Dovecot-2.1.6 on a customers setup. They have 102 mail accounts on the server. The started using this dovecot version on the 20th June. One mailbox suddenly started expunging mails. Not from the current day, but one week back in the past. First I thought about an Outlook issue. Some filter or archieving thing, but we did a test and on one day,

I have this default configuration [0], when use the userdb_mail to point to the mdbox location, the inbox subfolders show differently in a firebird client. So I decided to copy the whole default mail_location into the userdb_mail configuration [2]. But then I get errors [3]. Should I change the namespace configuration here, how? My default namespaces are inbox and 4archives [0] [@ ]#

Hello I am starting testing with dovecot 2.0.9. In my //etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf/ I have the following line: /mail_location = mdbox:/mydomain.org/%2.26Hn/%2.200Hn/%n:INDEX=/mydomain.org/indexes/%2.26Hn/%2.200Hn/%n/ These are my questions (a long mail): *1? How should I restore from backup with mdbox & separate indexes?* I have read in dovecot list archive about restoring the full

In my life with Maildir, mails were stored as single files, each mail per file. It was pretty easy to resend an e-mail from a Maildir folder to another address, by causing the mail to be re-injected into my MTA (Exim) queue for processing: I'd use a very simple shell script to achieve the above: #!/bin/sh email=$(find $*) { for x in ${email}; do sendmail president at egypt.gov <

On RHEL5, dovecot 1.0.7, I have set up sendmail to use `deliver` for my local mda.

Hi, I am using dovecot deliver as lda for sendmail.

Hello, I would like to convert all users mail from maildir to mdbox. My Dovecot version is 2.0.1, converted from 1.2.13 but config was rewritten from scratch. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/MailFormat says following: maildir -> mdbox migration.

I'm new to dovecot and sendmail and my server doesn't forward mails to 'dovecot deliver' at all.

I someone could point me into the right direction. I'm confused with the config for LDA. Basically what I
