Greetings, I've set up replication successfully on two Dovecot servers. I had fully synced the servers but then took one offline for 2 weeks. When I restored it, the servers synced but ended up replacing deleted emails in random people's inboxes. I'm using maildir. Does anyone have any insights as to correcting this issue? Asai -- --Asai

Greetings, I recently upgraded Dovecot from 1.2 to 2.0.14, for purposes of using Dsync to migrate emails from one server to another. I'm using MySQL for authentication. However I get this error message when I try to run Dsync, and after looking around for an answer, I'm at a bit of a loss: [root at triata ~]# dsync -v -u asai at globalchangemusic.org backup ssh -p22222 vmail at

Greetings, Just wondering if anybody would know why one of our users' iOS Mail app client doesn't show the email previews (the first few sentences of the email)? We had migrated from an earlier (2.2.4) version of Dovecot to the latest version and once that was done, the user began to report this issue.? I don't know if it's a Dovecot issue or not, but can anyone point me in

your permissions are set wrong. I dont know your OS, but this is what i use on debian. read this part of my script and adapt what you need for your OS. for debian user "named" = bind permdir=$(stat -c %a "/var/lib/samba/private") if [ "$permdir" = "755" ]; then echo "/var/lib/samba/private permissions are 755, which is ok."

Greetings, I'm sorry for asking what may be a really obvious question, but I'm having a hard time turning off logging, or at least getting less verbose logging. My dsync logs are about 7 MB daily, and I'm trying to get that switched off. At one point I had it on a lower level of verbosity, and I turned it up for debugging purposes, but now I cannot seem to turn it back down,

Greetings, For whatever reason, the BIND server running on our Samba AD instance changes permissions on /var/lib/samba/private/ldapi and /var/lib/samba/private to root:root, and causes all kinds of trouble. If I change the permissions back to named:root, it works fine. But after about 3 or 4 weeks it will revert back to root:root. How do I prevent this from happening in the future? Thanks.

Greetings, Can anyone help me to solve this problem? When doveadm sync is running nightly, we have a certain user's mailbox that will not properly sync and the logs give me this error (user private info redacted): Error: Mailbox USER/MAILBOX: UID=79: read(/vmail/domain.org/user/.MAILBOX/cur/1575914253.M611834P7822.triata4,S=41893,W=42718:2,Sc) failed: Cached message size smaller than

Greetings, Working on setting up replication and ran into some errors I have questions about and wondering if there's something I need to change. This one is fairly common: Sep 3 12:58:25 molecular dovecot: dsync-server(user at domain.org): Warning: Failed to do incremental sync for mailbox INBOX, retry with a full sync (Modseq 100298 no longer in transaction log) These two I ran into

Hi, what dovecot version is this? This looks a lot like bug that was fixed in 2.2.25.5 Sami > On 21 Jan 2020, at 17.59, Asai <asai at globalchangemusic.org> wrote: > > Greetings, > > Can anyone help me to solve this problem? > > When doveadm sync is running nightly, we have a certain user's mailbox that will not properly sync and the logs give me this error

Greetings, I'm working on building a redundant Dovecot server which will be replicated with my original. I would like to know if there's any potential problems I could run into in running this for the first time. For example, during an initial sync is it possible for the new server to sync improperly with the original and delete all of the emails on the original? Are there any

Greetings, I've seen something like this in another thread, about a month ago, but we're running into this error pretty frequently when we run dsync backup. Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0 [0x39ccc5f1c0] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(default_fatal_handler+0x35) [0x39ccc5f2a5] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0 [0x39ccc5ebb3] ->

Greetings, We have a PHP based shell script that runs a doveadm backup routine. This script was running just fine, and then we turned on more logging for Dovecot (enabled the mail_log plugin). For some reason, once this was done, the shell script would run for a few minutes and then hang, as it added more log messages to the dsync STDOUT. Once the mail_log plugin was disabled, it ran without

Greetings, I'm setting up replication and am getting this error from the server where the replicated mails are being initially created: Aug 27 11:03:53 molecular dovecot: dsync-server(user at domain.org): Error: Couldn't create lock /vmail/domain.org/user/home/.dovecot-sync.lock: No such file or directory Can anyone shed some light on this? Here's the Replicator config of the

Greetings, Is It possbile to convert to DBox or MDBox on a per user basis? If so, can someone point me to the correct documentation? Thank you, -- Asai

Greetings, Using Dovecot 2.2.4. In my DSync logs, I'm getting the error message: Error: sieve-storage: couldn't find storage root directory; sieve_dir was left unconfigured and autodetection failed However, I have the following configuration set: plugin { sieve = /vmail/%d/%n/sievescript sieve_dir = /vmail/%d/%n/ } Please, if you have a moment, tell me what I'm doing wrong

Greetings, I tried installing Dovecot EE on Scientific 6.5 yesterday, but there was no repo under that release version, so I hardcoded the release version to 6 in yum.repos.d/dovecot.repo. That worked, but when I installed, it didn't install any default configuration files. /etc/dovecot was empty. Is that to be expected for EE? -- --Asai

I am trying to create basic descriptive statistics for a spatial dataset using moving windows of variable sizes. I found the filter(dataset, rep(1/a,1)) very useful for obtaining averages for a given moving window size "a" (a is the window size within a column of data in a matrix - the filter is applied to all columns automatically) I could not find anything analogous for

Greetings, Working with dsync and setting up backups to a Windows file server. Problem seems to be that Windows is renaming the dovecot mail files (maildir) to Windows friendly filenames, and losing the Dovecot name. For example, 1323817925.M36368P32049.triata.globalchangemultimedia.net,S=2255,W=2318:2,S becomes 1AETPH~X. Does anyone have any ideas about how to tell Windows to not do this?

hello, i'm not a heavy samba user in general (works without any serious tweaking on my modest home network), but one of my clients is and we are seeing some strange behavior. perhaps it makes sense to someone with more clue. if not, i could use some advice in how to figure out what is going on. the setup: a couple dozen windows clients (xp pro 64bit & vista ultimate 64bit) taking
