I just upgraded my Ubuntu server from 11.10 to 12.04.1 and that upgraded Dovecot to 2.0.19. For some reason I'm getting a lot more (5 times) disconnect in IDLE and inactivity time outs. I'm using only IMAP with two users. Both users access the server from multiple devices, phone, tablet and desktop computer. I had previously set the max_userip_connections to 20 and rarely got the

Hello In my installation the disable_plaintext_auth does not appear to take effect. I can see that the value is correct using doveconf -a but it doesn't change anything. Whenever attempting to log in using IMAP I get this: * BAD [ALERT] Plaintext authentication not allowed without SSL/TLS, but your client did it anyway. If anyone was listening, the password was exposed. ls NO

Hi, I'm using Imapsync to sync messages from an Exchange 2003 server to a Dovecot 1.1.11 server. The problem is that users' mailboxes are huge, several gigabytes with tens of thousands of messages. First Imapsync connects to Exchange and then to Dovecot, and then starts to get Inbox info from Exchange. By the time it gets this info, the connection to Dovecot has timed out. I realize the

hi, one customer told us, that he has performance problem in his Thunderbird 3.1.9, while open his sent folder, which has round about 4000 mails in it, and 20k in his Inbox. For example TB, tries to sync the sent-folder list (over SSL) from the sent folder for now over 15min. In the log, I can't see any strange things, so for me, Dovecot works ok. Maybe, I should use better cache options?

Hello, We have SLES-11 SP2 Xen VMs running dovecot as IMAP proxies. At VMs startup, dovecot almost always shows these errors: Nov 16 14:29:19 server dovecot: master: Dovecot v2.1.10 starting up (core dumps disabled) Nov 16 14:29:55 server dovecot: master: Error: service(anvil): Initial status notification not received in 30 seconds, killing the process Nov 16 14:29:55 server dovecot: master:

> I've tried using IMAP with mail_location pointed at the snapshot, but, > though I can get a listing of emails in the mailbox, the fetch fails when > dovecot can't write-lock dovecot.index.log. 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.)

I ran into two issues trying to upgrade our dovecot installation (Solaris 10). 1) Does not compile with OpenSSL 0.9.7 Not a big deal, as I was able to successfully against OpenSSL 0.9.8, but does dovecot require OpenSSL >= 0.9.8 now? libtool: compile: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -I../../src/lib -I../../src/lib-test -std=gnu99 -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -mcpu=ultrasparc -Wall -W

Hi, I'm trying to backup a directory on a Windows 2008 (fully updated) I'm running Debian testing. (kernel version: 4.9.6-3, mount.cifs version: 6.6) I'm basically mounting a share with mount -t cifs and tar the content of a directory. I didn't have problems with old debian (probably sqeeze). Now I occasionally get in dmesg: cifs vfs: error -32 sending data on socket to

Hi Ivan, Not sure if you have found a solution or not since your post was back in February, but I thought I'd reply as this is the only thread I could find anywhere that mentions a problem that I was having on a recent installation of Arch Linux. A few minutes after boot all of my CIFS/Samba mounts would go offline and I'd get an error "The host is down." But I could unmount

This increases the inactivity timeout for transfers from the default (60 seconds) to 1 hour, so that we should never hit it for ordinary transfers. Note this requires oVirt >= 4.3.0 although the same change was backported to the 4.2 branch in later releases. The corresponding oVirt fix was in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1563278 I also replaced the deprecated ‘image’ parameter with ‘disk’.

Hi, 2.2.33.2 Well your confs are almost mine except for director_ping_idle_timeout = 30 secs submission_relay_max_idle_time = 29 mins but i think they're not imap related (i may be wrong) any other hint why is this happening? I was used to the old IMAP server than dovecot, where emails appear in the inbox, no matter if it was selected for 15m or the last 4 hours Any ideia please let me

Hello, is it possible to limit the number of pop3 (or imap) login attempts from one IP with dovecot to stop attackers? We recently had an attack from one IP-address lasting 50 minutes that tried 50000 pop3-logins with guessed users and passwords. I know about Fail2Ban but really would prefer an easy to configure solution inside of dovecot. Dovecot has this anvil daemon, can it be used
