similar to: Zlib plugin - when does it make sense?

Hi, I'm running Dovecot 2.1.7 on Debian. Exim is the MTA. I was recently made aware of the fact that the way in which Exim invokes dovecot-lda is prone to code injection: dovecot_virtual_delivery: driver = pipe command = HOME=/home/vmail/\$local_part /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f \$sender_address use_shell .. I.e. a command is executed via the shell, and Exim uses

Hi, I'm running Dovecot 2.1.12 on FreeBSD. I configured Dovecot to use the Squat plugin to provide faster full-text searches. The output of 'dovecot -n' is attached to this mail. However, I just noticed that this plugin doesn't seem to kick in. A raw telnet session seems to confirm this: [..] . SEARCH BODY abcdefg * OK Searched 57% of the mailbox, ETA 0:06 * SEARCH 3425 6254

Hi, One thing which came up repeatedly is that clients using the IMAP server I run (using Dovecot 2.1) wonder whether they broke their Sieve scripts, i.e. it often goes like "I don't know whether I just didn't receive any mail, or whether my filters broke. Can you check the logs?". I then usually just run the sieve-test binary (part of the Pigeonhole distribution) and send them

Hi, I'm running Dovecot 1.2.17 on FreeBSD (exact output of 'dovecot -n' is atttached to this mail). The machine is serving a public mailinglist archive which is read-only; all mail arriving for the archive is marked as \Seen using Sieve script. This setup works well most of the time, but I noticed that for *some* mails, the \Seen flag doesn't seem to be stored. Right now I

Hi, I'm running Dovecot 1.2.17 on FreeBSD 9 to serve an archive of a few internal mailinglists. The archive is implemented using a public namespace: namespace private { separator = / prefix = inbox = yes } namespace public { separator = / prefix = Lists/ location = maildir:/home/vmail/lists/Maildir:CONTROL=~/Maildir/lists:INDEX=~/Maildir/lists subscriptions = no } As

Hi, I'm running Dovecot 2.1.12 on FreeBSD (quite successfully so, thanks for this nice piece of software!). One thing which is slightly annoying though is that automatically created mailboxes (I have lda_mailbox_autocreate set) don't have the file permissions I'd like them to have. I'm using a vmail-based system, i.e. all mail is owned by vmail:vmail; another member of the

Hi, I'm running Dovecot 1.2.17 for serving mail via IMAP as well as for providing access to a mailing list archive. The archive is implemented as a public read-only mailbox with per-user index files (i.e. the \Seen flags are per-user). I recently enbled the Squat plugin to accelerate searches in the message bodies and noticed that every user (I'm using a virtual user setup) gets his

Hi Is it possible to compress incoming mails delivered via dovecots LDA when using dovecot --version 1.2.9 or do i have to compress them via cron?

Hi, we're running Dovecot 2.1.7 together with Solr for efficient fulltext search. A couple of days ago we reinstalled our Solr server on a new machine. After adjusting our Dovecot setup to use the new server, it took a few days to notice that something seems fishy about our full-text search: expected hits wouldn't be shown among the search results. For instance, one of the folders (a

Hi! Usually dovecot auto detects or repairs the size of a maildir message. So I can place a message named "foo" in the cur directory and dovecot uses it. Now I tried the same with a zlib compressed message but here dovecot doesn't recognize/repair the size of the message. When I access this folder via IMAP the connection is diconnected and in dovecot logs I see the following

Having some difficulty finding out whether managesieve is still a separate package (not seeing it in the FreeBSD ports tree, only one for 1.x) or whether it was integrated into the main 2.x package. I've only been using 1.2.x up to now, and trying to document a system install. So is it in the main distribution now? -- Darek

Hi, I have set up a mail server with dovecot as IMAP/POP3 server, postfix as MTA and roundcube as web mail client. Other mail clients such as Thunderbird is also being used for mail access. Now as a security policy in our organization, I want to know the IP addresses of the machines from which my mail server was accessed. Is there any monitoring tools to get these details? Regards, Suja

Hi, I'm going to migrate my company-mailserver to new hardware. I would like to take the opportunity to archive some older mail. But I would like to have it still accessible, would this be possible with dovecot ? I mean, I would like to put that older mail from different users (I got about 50 users) on some read-only media but mount that media in the users mail-dirs. That way I will have

Hi at all! I'm actually fighting to make sieve in dovecot work and made quite a success by now. However, I still fail at the following constellation: Background: I'm a Mail Admin of a small IT department and we are already using Dovecot as LDA with a filtering server. Any user can easily create filter rules that apply to him (to make it easier for my colleagues we use the Roundcube plugin

Hi folks. Perhaps you find some time to look into this,... I'm trying to plan my mail system and would have some questions. The overall idea is about the following: - There is a (internet) server, which is the MTA (which will be postfix) and imap and/or pop3 server (which shall be, guess, dovecot ... AOX comes in later). - Any spam filtering, virus-scanning, mail filtering happens on that

Hi All, I have read many posts about problems with Asterisk on some systems. I also set up Asterisk on many different boxes. But I have never seen the following... There is an IBM X346 (3.4GHz Xeon) with one Sangoma A104. This system is currently idle, that means there is nothing running except Asterisk (1.2.7.1). We are handling no calls now, but if I do a vmstat, I get peaks in system load up

Im triying to setup a dual boot machine as you

Hello, I've got a very strange problem. Lately I've been setting up my linux servers for network (layer2) redundancy with a bridge interface containing two ethernet interfaces connecting to two switches. So far I didn't have any problems with it, but now a very strange thing happens with a new server I'm installing. The server is an ibm x346 having two onboard BCM5721 cards, the
