Hi, with 'changeset 10910' the Auth master process is running as 'default_internal_user' now (dovecot). This requires permissions tuning for 'passwd-files' at least, while other plugins would run in a different user context, 'vmail' in my setup. I see that this may be safer, just wondering how to streamline the config: [20:27] root spectre:/var/vmail/conf.d# l

Hi Thomas, thank you for your help. This is very strange that it wont work here. can you doveconf -n the relevant parts especially mail_plugins= and plugin { } i think i have misconfigured something :( Regards, Daniel

Hi! I wrote a little something about how to prevent delivery to mailboxes over quota while still being in the SMTP dialogue: http://sys4.de/en/blog/2013/04/08/postfix-dovecot-mailbox-quota/ (Postfix/Dovecot-2.2) -- [*] sys4 AG http://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Franziskanerstra?e 15, 81669 M?nchen Sitz der Gesellschaft: M?nchen, Amtsgericht M?nchen: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter,

Yeah, I gradually figured out it wouldn't work yesterday when delving back into this and testing. No separate quotas per namespaces until 2.1 or something, I think? So, got any suggestions on getting it to work with v2.x? I found an old thread from 2013 by Andreas (I think?) and he didn't seem to quite be able to get it to work. Actually, though, I'd be happy to even be able to apply

I have Dovecot2 auth setup to run as user = doveauth group = dovecot configured in, vi conf.d/10-master.conf ... service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { user = postfix group = postfix mode = 0660 } user = doveauth group = dovecot } service auth-worker { user = doveauth group = dovecot } ... When I start Dovecot, ls -al

I've thought about doing this someday (adding snapshots to a user's namespace) but never got around to doing it. Snapshots get rotated (e.g. hourly.1 -> hourly.2 -> etc.)

Dear list, since the distri upgrade to glibc 2.28, i can't build working dovecot binary's. Older with glibc 2.27 are working. The distri is LFS based. MariaDB 10.2.18 and 10.3.11 makes no difference.

Hello, dovecot crashes when it receives -HUP signal. It happens always if there was some activity - for example, if I start dovecot, check any account through POP3 and then send -HUP to dovecot process, it crashes with the following log entry: segfault at 00000008 eip 0804d3fb esp bfdd3860 error 4 If there were no activity at all since starting, it does not crash. my dovecot -n output: #

Hi, I seem to be forced to run the auth proces as root because I want to use pam for local users. My gut feeling says that this is Not Good. Is there another way? For the virtual users 'vmail' is good enough because that user may access the MySQL database. This is on Ubuntu server 10.04.1 and Dovecot 1.2.9. TIA, Egbert Jan

I have noticed a difference in the behavior of ACLs. When used in a MUA the following global ACL works fine and has the desired effect - new mailboxes can be created by a user being part of the 'PublicMailboxAdmins' group: [ global-acl: ] INBOX owner lrwstiekxap Public/* group=PublicMailboxAdmins lrwsipk Public/* anyone lr Public/* authenticated lrws Creating the same mailbox via

Hi. Just got this error (1.1.rc4), is it something to worry about? Corrupted index cache file /.../Maildir/.Sent/dovecot.index.cache: used_file_size too large This is a shared mailbox with concurrent access. In general, can that usage pattern mess up the index? I am guessing "no", which is why I worry slightly about the warning. Cheers, Anders.

Hi everyone, I'm facing a small issue with the lda/lmtp "submission_host" feature in dovecot 2.0.14. When sending mail to MTA (in case of sieve filter forwarding for example), dovecot pass a RCPT TO command just after the EHLO. He's missing the MAIL FROM command. Therefore, my MTA show me a warning like this : "improper command pipelining after EHLO". How can i

Hello, it seems that there is some bug in authentication cache code in dovecot version 1.1.alpha4 - after login attempt with wrong password the correct password also will fail. I can reproduce it very easy: $telnet 10.10.10.30 110 +OK Server. <861.2.46e6c679.jZ8QYpFmU8ZN6XIq7zPhkw==@server2> user testuser +OK pass pass +OK Logged in. quit +OK Logging out.

Mail Issues - FreeBSD Hello, my apologies if this may be the wrong forum but hoping that maybe someone might be able to provide some insight. Have a very sporadic and strange issue with our mail servers running Dovecot on FreeBSD. There are three servers hosting Dovecot with FreeBSD as the underlying operating system. All three connect to a NAS server, again running FreeBSD and ZFS. When the

Hello again. I am trying to use a master user. The login works. However, a LIST command gives me only the INBOX. Is this to be expected? When logging in normally, I do get the full list of folders. (using Dovecot 1.1 rc3.) Anders.

I'm trying to move from my exising server to a new site. In preparation for this I've set up the new server as per the first attachment.

http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/64c73e6bd397 Today I finally committed the "imap-hibernate" feature that I first started developing about a year ago (and had been thinking about for several years before that). The main purpose here is to reduce the number of imap processes and the amount of memory they use by moving IDLEing connections into imap-hibernate processes where they are
