patch: allow proxy to lookup host by name
This patch allows the dovecot proxy processes to lookup the destination
host by name instead of IP address. Tested agains 1.2.10, expected to
work against 1.2.11.
The patch is pretty straightforward, it's making it work within the
restrictions of the login process that's more interesting.
I have made some changes to the wiki (pending approval) to

IMAP proxy - can it detect parodying to itself?
Hi all,
I have some IMAP servers fronted with separate perdition processes, and it would be ideal if I could collapse this down to having dovecot do both the IMAP proxying and the IMAP serving at the same time on the same IP addresses.
One of the fields in my LDAP entries contains the canonical name of the server that hosts their mailbox, and if I follow the manual at

FW: IMAP proxy with dovecot and hostname
Good morning dovecot users
I read in http://wiki.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/Proxy

dovecot imap hangs
All,
I recently did a fresh install/setup on centos 5 to replace my older
courier-imap and all seemed to go well until today I started to notice
that it simply hangs. I use thunderbird and squirrel mail and after a
while it seems like I"m simply rejected. I'm almost guessing that it has
to do with the session timing out and then dovecot is unwilling or
unable to renew the session. I

Proxying to a DNS Name
Hello,
reading the wiki I found
http://wiki.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/Proxy?highlight=(no DNS resolving)
I have a setup where the destination of a proxyconnection is an DNS name.
Is there a technical reason which currently require host= to be an IP address ?

LMTP proxying
How exactly is LMTP proxying supposed to work?
According to the example on

I'm only seeing "proxy" in the password_query statements.
But LMTP never sends a password.
IMAP Proxying is working OK:

Proxying Authentication on both sides
I've recently set up a director proxy environment on my test servers, with
the intention of deploying on our cluster soon.
One thing I found confusing in the proxying documentation [1] was the
first bit about their being two ways to do the authentication...either you
have the proxy forward the auth to the real server for authentication, or
you have the proxy authenticate it and then login

Dovecot proxy/director and mail pop3/imap backend service on same server
Hi all,
I am interested in running a Dovecot Proxy(with Director) on the same
server as
the main Dovecot IMAP/POP3 service. I have a basic Proxy/Director
configuration working,
however I am struggling with getting the Proxy and IMAP/POP3 service to
coexist on
the same server. I plan to use three IMAP/POP3 servers with a NFS/maildir
backend,
and I am playing with Dovecot 2.1.5 at the moment.
