I have a sendmail/dovecot imap/pop3 system that has been running with the following mail_location: mail_location = mbox:/var/empty:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/indexes/%u In order to reduce errors and simplify operation I removed imap and am now only responding to pop3. I'd like to also simplify the mail_location to get rid of index errors since I don't need indexes:

I've just upgraded from Slackware 14.1 to 14.2. I've not done anything with dovecot -- it's the same version that was running before the upgrade.

I can't seem to get imap virtual users to work with database authentication on new Scientific Linux 6.5 server with Sendmail 8.14.4 & Dovecot 2.0.9 Apparently I have to also create system users because sendmail/procmail/dovecot want to check directory ownership. So I created a database, made entry for the user, created the user chayes on the system. But %u always contains just chayes

I've gotten errors like this when it was actually a selinux denial. If you're running selinux, check those logs too.

I have postfix configured to deliver mail to dovecot over lmtp into a mailbox that then is accessed over imap. The imap server is running as the user "mail". Whenever I run "postfix flush" I get in mail.log: > Jun 12 05:37:45 li212-205 dovecot: lmtp(21288): Connect from local > Jun 12 05:37:45 li212-205 spamd[18173]: prefork: child states: II > Jun 12 05:37:45

Hi, I have a Fedora 14 x86_64 computer. I run dovecot 2.0.12 on it, only to keep a local imap copy of all my email, in maildir format. A couple days ago the hard disk broke, so I bought a new one, and reinstalled Fedora 14 x86_64 with all the updates. Then I copied all the maildirs from a backup to the new drive. But I can't access email now. No matter how I change sticky bits or ownership

Help! I have been using dovecot for some years with great success. A little while ago, I changed my mail server from Fedora to CentOS linux. I reinstalled dovecot, and *almost* everything seems to be working, but one thing. There's *one* user I can't get it to work on without a workaround. The user is "newuser" and the uid is 1111 (actual name and number changed to protect

Hi, I am trying to configure Pigeonhole to get filters in RoundCube working.

drwx-----x kunal kunal Storage I'm guessing this point is being more restrictive. Can you try changing this into 0755? Also suddenly you are no longer using vmail but random user IDs. This only works with vmail. Aki > On 25 February 2019 19:56 Kunal A. <kunal.oa at gmail.com> wrote: > > > Hi, > Yes. Output ;- > > dr-xr-xr-x root root / > drwxr-xr-x root

Hello, Dovecot. I'm using postfix + dovecot with pure virtual users. postfix uses standard virtual transport, and dovecot fetches such fields from userdb: chroot: "/usr/home/hosted/v-mail/%d/%n" home: "/" mail: "maildir:." Everything works Ok -- dovecot founds users' mail. Now, after upgrade to dovecot2, I want to use it LMTP server as

Hi, I'm getting errors with my IMAP setup. Basically, everything seems to work. Mail is delivered nicely from Postfix to Dovecot via LMTP. Dovecot does the authentication to LDAP (also for Postfix). Users are able to send mail via authenticated submission (Postfix) and login into IMAP and POP. However, IMAP connections are dropped frequently with an "ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP

Trying to get either avelsieve or server side filters to work with managesieve. Managesieve is running but whenever avelsieve or the server settings backend try to talk to it the same thing happens. So I guess it's really a problem with something about managesieve at this point. I hit the Message Filters option, it takes a long time for it to come back, though it finally just times out and
