Odd Feature Request - RBL blacklist lookup to prevent authentication
I would like to have a list of IPs (hacker list) that I can do a lookup
on so that if anyone tries to authenticate to dovecot they always fail
if they are on my list.
I have the list - and the list is available as a DNS blacklist.
I'd like to have it work with both local IP lists or RBL lookup.
The idea is so hackers from known IP addresses never succeed.

Dovecot Version Numbers - Let's drop the Alpha?
I'd like to make a suggestion. Let's drop the Alpha and come out with an
official version 1.0.
Here's my reasons. The 0.9x version are obsolete and people should be
using the 1.0 Alpha versions which seem to me to do everything the
previous versions did and more. It's as full featured and stable as all
other IMAP servers and in my opinion is ready to be called 1.0.

Feature request - umask for index files
I'd like a separate feature for setting umask for index and cache files
differently from email files.
The reason is that I'm putting indexes in a separate location and I need
group create rights in directories. Otherwise what happens is that the
first user creates the directories, but the second user for the domain
that has a different UID gets an error.

Unoffical Survey - What MTA/Spam filtering do you use?
I like this unofficial survey of hardware but wondering what MTA and
spam filtering everyone is using. I do front end spam filtering for
other servers as well. (junkemailfilter.com)
I'm using Exim 4.61
SpamAssassin 3.11
Some version of DSpam that I'm experimenting with
Most of my spam filtering happens on the Exim level.
My mail spam filter server is:

Dovecot Deliver?
I guess Dovecot has an LDA called deliver. What is it and how do I use
it? Or is it ready to be used. can't find any docs on it.

Authentication feature I need
OK - here's whay I need to make it work for my Linuxconf compatible
authentication system. First - a question:
Will this work? I can find docs on "virtualfile.
auth virtualfile {
mechanisms = plain digest-md5
userdb = passwd-file /etc/vmail/passwd.%d
passdb = passwd-file /etc/vmail/shadow.%d
user = root
}
Then - since the dmain name selects the passwd file, if there were a

Feature Request - Authentication Scheme - Linuxconf
This would make my life a lot easier in migrating to Dovecot. And it
should be really easy to implement. Here's how linuxconf does it:
Password files are placed in the /etc/vmail directory as follows:
/etc/vmail/passwd.domain1
/etc/vmail/shadow.domain1
/etc/vmail/passwd.domain2
/etc/vmail/shadow.domain2
The password and shadow files are exactly the same format as the
/etc/password and

1.0alpha1: too many open files
Help...
Dovecot 1.0alpha1 hung up today with nothing working and
the following spewing to my syslog:
pipe() failed: Too many open files
My setup: Solaris 9, just using imap, mbox format. The
various "max" settings in dovecot.conf use the defaults.
Suggestions on what to change in fovecot.conf to keep this
from happening?

Performance issues in Alpha4 gone
Hi
The performance issues I noticed on my system/setup with Alpha3 seem to
be gone with Alpha4. As soon as I installed it I noticed imap seemed
more responsive.
Just thought I would let the list know.

Running pop3 on more than one port
Hi All
This is possibly a silly question but after reading some of the docs and
hunting a bit I could not find an answer.
I need to run my pop3 service on both the standard 110 port and another
(not really sure which yet) port.
My ISP is doing shaping on port 110 destined traffic causing a nightmare
with some of my machines pulling only some of their mail then crashing

Namespace Feature
I've never used namespaces and don't quite know what they do. If I add a
namespace then do things like shared folders magically appear to users?
Also - I wonder if this is possible. I'd like to create a write only
shared folder.
I know this is unusual but I have a reason. I'd like to have a folder
that people can drag spam into to report missed spam. I want to write

linux 2.4 vs 2.6 kernel
hi
I read ( I think in dovecot wiki) that ext2 or ext3 fs on a 2.4 kernel
can get slow due to the number of files in a directory. Does anyone know
if kernel 2.6 has similar limitation? I'm not at that point now, but
before the box goes live, I'm wondering if I should resolve that.

Dovecot Virtual Users & Sendmail
Not directly Dovecot, but a configuration problem.
We have a working set-up with Dovecot+Procmail+Sendmail, using
POP-before-SMTP. We want to be able to offer email accounts to some
local schools, using SquirrelMail (keeps their costs & maintenance
down). The whole arrangement is working, but we don't want to have to
have 300+ School children as users of our
