With the help of the available documentation about NFS and fcntl locks I managed to find out the following: With the plain mbox format dovecot seems to apply and to honor the fcntl locks. But since this format is not used any more in real setups, it is

I'm using "/usr/bin/doveadm purge -A" to purge the mdboxes of my users. Unfortunately this command terminates prematurely once it reaches a defective mdbox! Is there a workaround for this? Like using doveadm to get a list of valid users and then run "doveadm purge -u" on each of those? -- [*] sys4 AG http://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Franziskanerstra?e 15, 81669

Hi, we have customers with Exchange servers that are polling for new mail every minute with dozens of pop3 accounts. I am looking for a mechanism to rate limit this per user. So what I am looking for is a way to block users from polling, if a user asks for new mail more than every 5 minutes (for example). Is this possible? Can this be achieved within Dovecot or does it need external scripting?

How exactly is LMTP proxying supposed to work? According to the example on http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/Proxy I'm only seeing "proxy" in the password_query statements. But LMTP never sends a password. IMAP Proxying is working OK: Sep 24 12:51:09 imap-login: Info: proxy(ralf.hildebrandt at charite.de): started proxying to dovecot.charite.de:993:

Hi, I have finally managed to implement the Sieve "foreverypart" and "mime" extensions (RFC 5703). These are now included in the main Mercurial repository and will be included in the next release. I will be fixing a few minor details in the coming week; e.g., interaction with "include" and "editheader" extensions needs more work. Still, in the mean time,

http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration says: concat('*:bytes=', quota_limit_bytes) AS quota_rule and concat('*:bytes=', quota_limit_bytes) AS userdb_quota_rule but a generic quota_rule on the same page says: plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=1G quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M } Are "bytes=" and "storage=" equivalent?
