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, 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 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 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

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 run a small IMAP server for a dozen guys in the office, serving about 55GB of Maildir. I recently became aware of the Zlib plugin ( http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Zlib ) and wondered 1. given that there is about zero CPU load on my IMAP server, is enabling the plugin a no-brainer or are there other things (except CPU load) to consider? 2. For enabling the plugin, I suppose you

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. A while ago (April 15th or so) I posted a patch that allows rsync to take multiple --compare-dest or --link-dest arguments, allowing fetching of files not present in multiple trees. I never got any feedback on it, though, so I'm picking it up again. :) Is there any interest in such a patch at all? Below is the usage example i outlined back then; --start-- [...] Its primary usage is

Hi all, I was busy programming a tool to automatically run some tests to update the FLAC comparison page (http://xiph.org/flac/comparison.html) when I stumbled across some weird behaviour of the flac program. So I compiled from git and it seems that this bug still is there. As I don't have any experience on coding C and don't know which bug-report facility to use, this seemed the

hei everyone, I have a weird problem: if I do a # cd /somedir; stat somesubdir |grep Modify where /somedir is some directory on an SMB-mounted filesystem I get one datetime... but I I do: # cd /somedir; stat * |grep Modify for the same directory I get a Modify time which consistently differs by 1 second. As I'm writing a perl module to detect differences in a filesystem and rely on the

Do not pass GLOB_MARK as flag for glob(3) in the daemon implementation of glob, so names of directories will not have a trailing slash. This allows users to have filenames that can be used with other tools, such as rm. Add a new test to check this (based on RHBZ#1293271). A mild behaviour change is that users of the glob API now need to append the slash when building paths using its results.

Greetings. If I do this: rsync --hard-links one.server.com::"module/somedir/images/redhat/3.0WS/en/os/i386 module/someotherdir/1.0/images/redhat/3.0WS/en/os/i386" /export/distros I get: /export/distros/i386/... and a conflict between the two sources.

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
