This should also do the job. As I said in my OP I could use doveadm-expunge with a search query. But I've done that and

Hi, I used to, with a simple script, loop over the filenames in a Maildir, grab the From from the contents of the file and grab the flags (especially "READ" and "REPLIED") from the filename, but after moving to sdbox these flags are hidden in the index file. Is there anyway to get these out of there programmatically without having to resort to using an imap-client or is that

Up until now I've been backing up my IMAP server by taking an atomic snapshot of the entire VM, so I've not really had to worry about it. I'm moving to hosting where I have neither VM snapshots nor a filesystem that can take snapshots, so I need to think about consistent backups a bit more. Will a simple backup of all the files of an multi-dbox give me a consistent state when I

Dear list, I recently had to delete some messages from an sdbox mailbox, for which I used the canonical "doveadm expunge" command without issues. However I got curious and, on a test mailbox, I deleted an unimportant message directly from the filesystem (rm u.650). After removing the file, the webmail continued to show it in the mail list - but no text was retrieved when I selected

Dear Marc, Thanks for your feedback! 1. I store it in MySQL. 2. I will add a cronjob to run Solr if I can figure out why its not working on test runs. Maybe I might try to setup a cronjob for solr to avoid having to manually start it everytime. 3. Will turn on the mail_debug in dovecot.conf . Where will it log the problems?

Dear Marc. Thanks =) Already have dovecot-solr installed. Is there a way to see if dovecot-solr is actually working?

I'm using dsync to synchronize emails on a laptop where wifi connectivity sometimes fails in the middle of a sync. I have a shell script that runs dsync, and here is one line of it including the output of dsync: + dsync -f -m realmail mirror /home/paulproteus/projects/ssh-attach/run ssh rose.makesad.us dsync dsync-local(paulproteus): Error: dbox

So, the index will be fixed when either: - running doveadm force-sync - accessing the mailbox (ie: via IMAP). This means that removing an email from the filesystem (ie: a u.* file) and the index cache file (dovecot.index.cache) should be

Evidently, the 'doveadm expunge' command requires a "mailbox" to be defined in the search string. But is there a way tell it all mailboxes for a user? For example, something like: doveadm expunge -u user at domain mailbox ALL savedbefore 30d Thanks, Michael

Hello, Using cyrus2dovecot (https://github.com/a-schild/cyrus2dovecot) I have migrated some test mailboxes from Cyrus (2.4.17) to Dovecot (2.2.9). The problem I'm having is that the seen status is in cyrus.index files, which cyrus2dovecot doesn't understand. Does anyone use cyrus2dovecot for migrations? If so, how do you deal with seen status when it is stored in the .index files?

Hi all. I've just installed dovecot v2.1 in a multihomed, multiinstance setup, It took me two days to convert the old v1.1 configs, now everything works like charm! But. :) I have several maildir mailboxes, I decided to use the sdbox storage type instead. I ran into difficoulties using the dsync util. My virtual users are in an OpenLDAP DB on a differnet machine, and I do not have access

Hello, I've got a Postfix/Dovecot server setup. Currently Dovecot is version 2.3.6, and it's using Maildir storage. The mailbox is: mail_home = /home/vmail/mailboxes/%d/%n mail_location = maildir:~/mail:LAYOUT=fs I'm wanting to convert from Maildir to sdbox. I looked at: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat I was initially thinking mdbox but that's multiple messages per

I'm implementing sdbox. In conf.d/10-mail.conf, with "maildir:" mail_location = maildir:/my_mailbox_path/%d/%n mail gets stored in /my_mailbox_path/%d/%n/new/ With "sdbox:" mail_location = sdbox:/my_mailbox_path/%d/%n mail gets stored in /my_mailbox_path/%d/%n/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails. How do I get rid of the '/mailboxes/' and '/dbox-Mails/' path

Hi welcome I want to set some virtual users with sdbox mail_location so I return in password_query and user_query extra field mail which contains sdbox:/var/mail/example.com/user:INDEX=/var/mail_indexes/example.com/user:ALT=/var/mail_altstorage/example.com/user and then when i send email to user at example.com I see all sdbox dirs created but when i login with thunderbird IMAP - Maildir

Hi Ranbir, i think youre just using the wrong quota backend. https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota You should switch from "quota = maildir...." to another one, like dict. Converting your Public mailbox you could try this ( no guarantee .. just guessing. make backup ! ): doveadm -o mail_location="maildir:/var/spool/mail/thesandhufamily.ca/public" sync sdbox:/target/folder
