similar to: Move of mail folders to other mail account on same server

We had a user quit recently. Three days ago I copied his entire Maildir folder to another user to that user's Maildir/.JoesEmail. I changed ownership and made the permission 'chmod -R og-rwx .', just like all the other files/directories of the new owner. This didn't work to show the new folder. Today, in his Thunderbird client, I subscribed to the 'JoesEmail' folder. I

Hi fellow list members, What would be the best way to add the .Sent,.Draft, etc. folders to the maildir tree? It seems not Dovecots task to do that but of the MUA. I have seen several options. Use of skel but that works only for new system users. I have only virtual users preloaded in a database. I've discoverred that ONLY Roundcube add the folders (if configured to do that) but I've

Hi Daniel, Hmm - I'm happy to use different 'user names' to log into Dovecot... as long as each of these logins can still subscribe to the same universe of folders I have available at present. I can envision using steve_mobile and steve_desktop as logins, as long as these still provide access to the same mailboxes as I have in steve's Maildir folder. I'm guessing that

Hi i have trouble getting my public folders working properly. I have a few issues atm with them. First off i'm using version 2.0.9 as it came with CentOS and would greatly prefer to keep this version. Here is my dovecot.conf file # dovecot -n # 2.0.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-431.23.3.el6.centos.plus.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS release 6.5 (Final) ext4 auth_debug = yes

Hello dovecot, First poster here. What I want : give a.chaouche at algerian-radio.dz list and read permissions on a.chaouche at backup.algerian-radio.dz. Let's just discuss sharing the inbox then I can do the same for subfolders, in any. a.chaouche at algerian-radio.dz and a.chaouche at backup.algerian-radio.dz are two different users. Details about the domains aren't relevant here I

Hai, Do you have advice about Dovecot plugins for mail encryption: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/MailCrypt https://0xacab.org/riseuplabs/trees I like NaCL based encryption but the MailCrypt plugin is better because it's maintained by Dovecot developers (is this correct?) Hard to understand MailCrypt docs so may I ask, may I provide per user encryption? I don't like global

Aki really thanks for reply,, I hope for continue the conversation, >> Do you have advice about Dovecot plugins for mail encryption: >> >> https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/MailCrypt >> https://0xacab.org/riseuplabs/trees >> >> I like NaCL based encryption but the MailCrypt plugin is better >> because it's maintained by Dovecot developers (is this

I've been trying to troubleshoot this for a while now, and I'm really at a loss. My userdb is set up correctly to return home, and mail, and a test with 'doveadm user' verifies this: # doveadm user user at domain field value uid 1000 gid 1000 home /var/domain/user mail maildir:/var/mail/user at domain I've reloaded, restarted, stopped and started dovecot

I'm running dovecot 2.2.16 on my FreeBSD mail server. I've read information on the wiki about setting up shared mailboxes, but I want to do something that isn't really coved by the instructions I was reading there. My son (now 7 years old) has an account on the system, but doesn't use it directly. But, for things he's interested in like Minecraft, and/or the local zoo, we

Hi, I have dovecot (2.2.16, see dovecot -n at end) installed to /opt on CentOS 6 for access on a local network. I would like to create an archival mail account which will reduce the primary account file size and still make older emails easily accessible. How can I set specified folders in this Maildir read-only with ACL? For example, I included this in the dovecot-acl file to specify

I have configured autoexpunge on some folders: namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Junk { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 30 days special_use = \Junk } mailbox Trash { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 2 weeks special_use = \Trash } prefix = separator = / } After adding these and restarting, logging in and out several times, I still see messages

Hello everbody, I'm a proud user of Dovecot 2.2.9 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I currently migrate all my Linux services to a new Debian 8 Jessie Server. On this server I installed and configured Dovecot 2.2.24. Now I search a way to migrate the two IMAP users I have on this server preserving all timestamps, folders and flags. Yes, only two ;-) I read the following two articles:

Hello, Is it possible to have this done not only for spam and trash folder but lets say like the user inbox and any user created mail folders too? My ultimate goal is to have a way to automate the email deletion process of emails stored in the user inbox or mail folders when it reaches a specified date. My boss wants to force users to keep emails only a month old anything beyond that will be

Hello, We are running Dovecot 2.3.18 (together with Postfix) on CentOS 7. It uses a Maildir structure. We have a user who has organized his mailbox as shows up at the end of this mail. The user had forgotten that he had renamed his "Grants Active \ European" (.Grants Active.European) folder to "Grants Active \ International" (.Grants Active.International), he thought that
