similar to: Trouble viewing Inbox via IMAP Client

I've been pouring over the documentation for dovecot, but can't find a solution to this problem. I recently took over administration of the dovecot email service at the University where I work, and things were going smoothly. We've been creating email accounts for use with JIRA, a bug reporting/tracking system, and one day recently, when I tried to add a new account to JIRA, I got

centOS 6.5, dovecot-2.0.9-7.el6_5.1.x86_64 This is frustrating, because I had it working before... I could deliver an email to a user user at domain, then connect to dovecot IMAP and see the mail, no problem! Then I was told we had to use cyrus, and I was dealing with it for a few weeks. Now we're back to dovecot, and the last backup I had of that config has postfix delivering mail to

Hi, I upgraded to 20150213 (f10725a5eed8+). I chose LDAP as the authentication source for Dovecot. Compilation succeeds. Starting dovecot from command line : /usr/local/sbin/dovecot -c /usr/local/etc/dovecot/ The error log contains : "dovecot: auth: Fatal: No passdbs specified in configuration file. PLAIN mechanism needs one" It works properly with Dovecot 2.0.9. Any clues or

Hello, I have a dovecot system that uses winbind authentication against Active Directory. I set it up by following the directions in the wiki. That works great. When a new user receives an email, the inbox is created with permissions 600 (rw- --- --) and ownership user:mail , even though I did chmod 02770 /var/spool/mail. And then, when dovecot tries to access the inbox, it throws the error:

Hello everyone, we are running a central server (CentOS 6.5, dovecot-2.0.9-7.el6 with a small patch to disable the IMAP CREATE command, and openssl-1.0.1e-16.el6_5.7) and distribute standard client software to customer( site)s. The clients do IMAPS connects in regular intervals (no IDLE, no lingering logins) and authenticate with certs issued by a dedicated PKI ("auth_ssl_username_from_cert

I'm replacing my old Fedora 7 mail server with a new one running CentOS6.3. The old server uses plain-text logins and password for pop3 and IMAP. I'm unable to get dovecot to authenticate.

Hello, I'm migrating a mail server from a centos 5 cluster architecture to a centos 6 cluster architecture. The new cluster involves faster machines then the old cluster, and a virtual machine. I use dovecot-2.0.9-5.el6.x86_64, while the old cluster uses dovecot-2.0.1-1_118.el5. Tha mail server uses mysql for the users database, and a local ldap for authentication. The storage is also much

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

I am a new dovecot user who recently transitioned my old mailserver to a new CentOS/Postfix/Dovecot system. I am running a simple configuration with about a dozen system users and Maildir folders. The e-mail setup seems to be running fine when I use the default local-delivery-agent in Postfix. However, I am trying to use the dovecot-lda instead so I can take advantage of the sieve functionality.

I used to install dovecot on any Fedora fresh installation and I could fetch my internal mail few minutes later. Now I've been struggling for two days and I haven't got my mail working yet. I have Fedora 14 with sendmail. Some application on the same machine send mail to an account on the same machine (hence all is confined to one machine) and I want to retrieve it from a laptop

I'm experiencing some problems similar to those described in http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2012-July/137250.html except with 2.0.9. Adding http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2012-July/084906.html to the main config didn't seem to help, nor did setting the list of director and backend servers to just the system itself. I get a banner connecting to port 143: [root at retr01 log]# telnet

Hi, I'm relatively new to Dovecot and I did a bit of search but couldn't find a possible solution for the particular setup I'm working on. Basically I have an SMTP/POP/IMAP proxy setup running Postfix & Dovecot. IMAP/POP authentication is done using the password proxy feature, where the login credentials are passed to the backend server after a db lookup, which does the actual
