Hi! Have been using Fedora as my dovecot server for some time and am struggling with systemd at every update. Fedora insists on setting ProtectSystem=full in both dovecot.service and postfix.service at every update of the packages. This makes my mailstore which is in /usr/local/var/mail Read-only. And this makes the incoming emails delivered through dovecot-lda disappear into /dev/null until I

Is there a way to manually force an mdbox storage to be rebuilt into new files? Particularly files of the maximum size? -- Daniel

Yesterday I had to recover an e-mail which a user had deleted. If I understand this correctly the message was expunged but not purged (doveadm purge had not been run). This e-mail was clearly still in the mdbox stored with zlib compression as I could tell using the doveadm dump command (doveadm dump -t dbox filename). I could however not reveal the e-mail with the normal doveadm fetch -u

Hi all! Just setting up a cluster using Centos 7 We have a desperate need for TPM support and: 1. Tried the "standard" distro install. linvirt supports TPM passthrough but kvm-qemu barfs: "unsupported configuration: The QEMU executable /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm does not support TPM backend type passthrough" 2. The activated the qemu-ev repo and updated qemu-kvm to version

hmm if message cannot be written to disk surely it remains on mda queue as not delviered and does not just disappear ? or am i reading this wrong ?! > Dag Nygren <mailto:dag at newtech.fi> > 16 August 2017 at 7:14 am > Thanks for all the advice on how to configure systemd > not to loose my emails after every update.

Nice attitude and helpfulness in this list! Just had a look and it doesn't seem to be that an intrusive

Hi again! Succeeded in creating vtpmmgr-stubdom.gz from the source RPM with some shortcuts. ow the next problem seems to be that the libvirt we have will not support the XEN vtpm:s For example: virsh dumpxml <vm-machine> will not contain any info on the vtpm :-( Am I really the first one around with a need for TPM support in the VM:s ??

Hello, I'm facing an issue where deleted emails keep re-appearing after my mailbox index gets recreated.??I'm running version 2.2.36 of dovecot, but I tested the same scenario under 2.3.10. I'm also using mdbox, autoexpunge, and using dovecot replication. I've had several instances now where some expunged emails show up again in a mailbox. I noticed this error: doveadm: Error:

Hi! Running Dovecot 2.2.36 and authenticating against an OpenLDAP 2.4.45 server. Now since some update of dovecot it will not be able to authenticate your logins after a restart of the LDAP service is restarted without a reboot of the dovecot server. Anything new here that I should be aware of? Best Regards Dag

First of all i would like to thanks Timo for the excellent job done in dovecot. We are using it in you prodution server with about 5 millions of emails and it is pretty good, only a performance problens but i guess it is realated to ocfs2 that we are using. So lets begin: We are using dovecot 2.0.6 with maildir in an ocfs2 partiton. It is pretty slow access in peak time, but it is related to

Hello We are now running dovecot 2.0.9 with indexes in a ram disk and maildir storage in a test system. We have the following questions: - If there is a power outage / kernel crash, we will lose the content of ramdisk. We have tested that indexes are regenerated when a user logs in via imap, so e-mail access will be "slower" after a power outage / kernel crash, but

But is that not adviced in the manual[1]? I am also in the process of setting up dovecot behind a haproxy. Still testing with this. I was wondering why one would choose haproxy and not eg dovecot proxy (with director) [1] https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HAProxy -----Original Message----- From: Zelic Bojan [mailto:bojan.zelic at kudelskisecurity.com] Sent: woensdag 26 augustus 2020 23:39 To:

Hello, I am using dovecot with mdbox+sis and I notice an ever increasing disk space usage since I converted mailboxes from Maildir to mdboxes. I have checked with a user and while it actually uses only 65K, his mdbox files on disk are more than 6G. The backup of his mailbox is just 64K. Any suggestions ? Below are some relevant commands: [root at mail ~]# doveadm quota get -u test Quota

Yes I have done it, it is the third command I have run, without any change. a.

To a degree I agree .. given mdbox doesnt delete until purge .. but then would be nice if purge took a dovecot search rather than just ditch everything with refcount=0 ... in that way could say purge everything thats been marked as delete according to a specified criteria. rgds Matt completly unrelated moved mailserver back home and listed on cyren so atm getting bounced by dovecot.fi .. have

Shot in the dark here...haven't tried it myself so no promises. There's probably a much better way to do this but sometimes a little "brute force" helps. Theoretical steps: 1. Stop all mail processes - both SMTP and IMAP. 2. Use "doveadm sync" to backup the user mailbox, e.g., doveadm backup -u user mdbox:/tmp/usermail 3. Verify /tmp/usermail looks reasonable
