Hi, we have experienced some erratic behavior from Dovecot 2.0.15 if a user's INBOX is shared. Some folders of user1, including the INBOX, have been shared using these IMAP commands: . login user1 XXXXXX . setacl INBOX user2 lrwstiekx . setacl box-a user2 lrwstiekx Now if we use telnet to log in as user2 and select "shared/user1", it will contain the same mails as

Hello kind people, OK, today is a bad day for me. A user from a clients' site called early in the morning to inform me that she lost an entire folder on thunderbird with (naturally) important stuff in it. I am trying to find the lost folder, but there is nowhere to be found. Any ideas would greatly appreciated. Regards, Spyros "dovecot -n" :

Hey guys, I'm in kind of a crunch right now. Due to a poorly written script that I don't have control over, I need to be able to map a drive letter to a Samba share so that it works seamlessly with UNC (i.e \\server\Share <file:///\\server\Share> ). Basically, I need a way for a share name with a $ in it to be recognized as a valid network name. My current setup is like so:

Hi, I have installed latest Dovecot 1.0.13 on a FreeBSD 6.2 with XMail (www.xmailserver.org). It works OK except one thing: error on startup. After each reboot there are lots of such error: dovecot: Mar 28 08:54:38 Error: child 916 (login) returned error 89 dovecot: Mar 28 08:54:54 Error: imap-login: No authentication sockets found When I restart dovecot by running startup script

I am running dovecot 1.2.16 and not able to figure out an error that happens whenever I select the root of a virtual mailbox tree. At the moment I have a simple maildir store, accessed via IMAP, and have successfully added a virtual fs namespace with two subdirectories. I have created dovecot-virtual entries in the subdirs and they are working fine; they show the expected messages, etc. My

Hello all, I want to ask about something I never did before. I have a dovecot/XMail/LAMP/Horde installation on a CentOS 5.5 32-bit system with two domains : domainA and domainB All the users used to have their mailboxes on domainA. However the personell dept decided that 90% of the users will have to have their mailboxes set to domainB and the other 10% will stay at domainA. So, I need to

Hi, I am using dovcot on a Fritz!Box (Linux fritz 2.6.19.2 #1 Fri Apr 18 16:00:34 CEST 2008 mips unknown) And after upgrading from 1.0.9 to 1.0.15 I am getting above assertion, when I do some action like moving or deleting on the IMAP mail box using MailDir on ext2 fs.

Hello all, I have a DL360 G4 1U server that does a wonderfull job with dovecot horde, Xmail and OpenLDAP for a company and serving about 40 acouunts. The machine is wonderful. I am very happy with it. However, I am running out of disk space. It has two times 76Gb Drives in RAID1 (disk mirroring) and the capacity has reached 82%.? I am starting of getting nervous. Does anyone know of a painless

Hi, I figured out my issue, in my database query for the mail dir, I was grabbing the home column instead of the mail column. Once I changed the name of the column returned it started working.

Since a couple of days we're facing a problem with dovecot/MUA and multiple appeareances of single mails. The mail is physical existant only once but outlook shows it twice or more times. Then after some minutes these multiple "virtual" mails just disappear. Because this happens with different MUAs (Outlook and Thunderbid) I assume dovecot causes the problem. All mail are received

I use CONTROL=%h/Maildir/dovecot/public/control/[namespace] for each of my public namespaces. A few nights ago, I noticed having a new user subscribe to public folders for the first time will silently fail, becuase the path up to the subscriptions file will not be created. I am pretty sure dovecot used to create it for me, but maybe that changed in a recent version, or maybe I did something to

Hi! Thanks it worked! But only when I have a specific user instead wldcard (i mean -u *@example.org). Now I think I need to write a script that searches for users in the domain , and starts each of them this command . And apparently it is necessary to add to the cron job..
