Hi, For the past day, I have been researching about making dovecot to support mailfront (http://untroubled.org/mailfront/) imapfront-auth natively and able to use mailfront imapfront-auth with dovecot imap v1.2.16 without starting any dovecot related services and no /etc/dovecot.conf file is required. More information about this can be read at:

Hi, I would like to try implementing user specific default_mail_env's as described here: http://wiki.dovecot.org/moin.cgi/MailLocation using the LDAP attribute 'mailLocation'. However, I have been unable to find any LDAP schema which contains mailLocation. What schema is this attribute part of? Thanks, Jason Pepas

Hi guys, this page needs to be updated: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Maildir#Control_files (link was from here: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation) Section 'Control files' is mentioning only 2 files but, in fact, Dovecot will store some additional files in CONTROL location: dovecot-uidvalidity dovecot-uidvalidity.* subscriptions (anything more?) Even more, page

Hi, I've reported this some month ago before (without response), but still I have no clue what is going wrong. Our installation is LDAP based (for virtual hosting) and up to I think alpha2 or 3 everything was working as expected. The trouble I have is that dovecot does not correctly use the information it gets about mailLocation. This is what is stored in the MailMessageStore attribute

Hi, I was setting up a new system for testing Dovecot 1.0. My old one is using 0.99 and was set up quite a time ago, so I had to consult the documentation. I needed several attempts until it worked and that was because the designated maildir directory /server/mail/jrg/Maildir was completely empty. Upon login the server exited and wrote the following to the log: POP3(jrg): Ambiguous mail location

Hello, I have not been using the home directory but I read in MailLocation.txt that I probably should. Does dovecot create each directory? What does it put in there? My server uses mbox format. My users all look like this: [root at sendmail log]# finger chayes Login: chayes Name: 50387.00 Directory: /home/chayes Shell: /sbin/nologin Never logged in.

In reading http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation it is not clear to me the syntax for setting mail_location inside a userdb block. --

I've updated http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation regarding a typical mail_location entry for dbox. Previously it said: mail_location = dbox:~/dbox but of course "dbox" is now the old name for "sdbox", so the example should be updated to say "sdbox" and there might/ought also to be an example for "mdbox".

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hello List, First of all, this is my first post so please bear with me if I miss something. I'm using Postfix with Dovecot 2.0.19 as the LDA. The home directory is of the form `/var/mail/virtual/<domain>/<username>`. The mail directory is under the home directory and named `mail`. `mail_location` is left empty, and userdb is

Hi, you can use INDEX=/writable/path/%u in your mail_location setting to define location for the required index data when importing. Also possibly you would need to define writable location for CONTROL and VOLATILEDIR. see https://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation <https://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation> Sami > On 14 Jan 2019, at 11.23, hby <hby at hby.hu> wrote: > > Dovecot

Hi all, this is my first post to this list, and hope someone can help me ;-) I'm running dovecot.x86_64 1.0.7-7.el5 on a CentOS release 5.5 (Final) box. when a user tries to create a sub-subfolder in Archiv, he gets the message: "Mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes" Mailclient is MS Outlook 2003 SP3 is there a spezial configuration in /etc/dovecot.conf needed?

If its too hard for them to setup the pop3 catch all, we can probably put some mapping in place to smtp froward mail to their server. This is more complex on our part so would prefer not to do it that way, but its an option and will require not setup on their part other than make sure their server does not accept mail for anyone other than our server. dovecot-request@dovecot.org wrote: >

Hi, I am trying to determine the correct LDAP schema I need to use to have either mailLocation or mailboxPath available ? Should I be just adding this to one of my own custom objectClasses ? -- Dave

Currently I have a mail server running postfix and dovecot with users in mysql. I have Outlook (blich) clients checking IMAP mail on the server. I'd like to build some fault-tolerance into that system in case I have hardware failure. I've read through: http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation/SharedDisk but I feel I need more information. My basic understanding is that I'll need 2
