Hi, there! Well, I am new to dovecot, so please be patient with me: I have a virtual server and want to setup simple mail delivery. postfix, saslauthd and dovecot basically work fine. The only open issue is, that (I guess) dovecot doesn't remove the mail when it's retrieved via pop3 from the server. It keeps sending me the same emails again and again. (The mail client (Thunderbird) is

I''m currently trying to create icinga module and the icinga-web and icinga-idoutils-libdbi-mysql from rpmforge store the initial sql file in version numbered directory(/usr/share/doc/icinga-web-1.7.2/~~~). So, I try to determine the version number from the yum info like as below, but that repository installed after my yum module gets work done. Is there any ways to fetching custom

We were using Naginator resources like nagios_host, etc. along with stored configurations and exported resources. Worked pretty well. However we have to separate the Puppet master and the Icinga (Nagios) server. They will be on different machines from now on. Are there any best practices for such a scenario? I already thought about some kind of ''rsync'' of the configuration from

Hi All, I currently make use of Icinga (nagios fork) + Puppet for fully automated monitoring. It''s worked great up to this point. I''ve recently been asked to integrate fine grained notifications support into icinga. I''m not entirely sure puppet manifests are the right place to manage contacts, contact groups, and their use within host and service definitions for

Hi Timo/all Help me please, i am in the process of migrating courier to dovecot 1.1.14. I want to do migration as users loging so i am using this script * http://www.dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl *, When i do use post-logging script to migrate* POP3*, its downloading messages again (*Duplicating messages)* , as some of our users prefer to leave messages on server. If i run the

Hi Aravinda, Very nice initiative, thank you very much! As as small recommendation it would be nice to have a "nagios/icinga" mode, maybe through a "-n" parameter which will do the health check and output the status ina nagios/icinga compatible format. As such this tool could be directly used by nagios for monitoring. Best, M. > -------- Original Message -------- >

Hi, I am using dovecot: 1.0.rc15 I was upgrading Debian and installed new versions of lots of things. My mail came fine and I though there was not problem until a user called and said it was not working through webmail. I tried, it it worked fine and I realized the problem was with dovecot. I have created new users, tried different UIDs. Removed any protections but when I telnet to the

Greetings - We are running Dovecot 1.1.11 on our servers and have been gradually migrating people off our old (UW-based) systems onto the new (Dovecot-based) ones. As a result the new systems are seeing more connections from more people. We have started seeing problems reported by users of our webmail service that they are getting an error indicating the webmail software (Prayer) has failed to

I have to rebuild a new Nagios box and thought this might be a good time to migrate away. I use snmp mostly for everything but with the fork Nagios endured I wonder about putting any more effort into the project. I probably should look at OpenNMS again, but the other options I think might work are Icinga (Should be trivial to migrate) or Zenoss or maybe even Zabbix? Anyone have experience in

Is there a way to configure dovecot to register in syslog the debug messages enabled by mail_debug=yes as a debug not as information? I need this because I want to send this kind of information only to a remote server. I've configured rsyslog to do this, but dovecot is registering those debug messages as information not as debug (as I expected). This is my rsyslog config: mail.info;\

Hi, I hope someone can point me in the right direction here. I am migrating a mailbox from a non cPanel server, and the mailboxes have folders which seem to be at the same level as the Inbox. The users access these mailboxes using IMAP. The new server configuration is Exim > Dovecot 1.2.17 > Maildir with the standard cPanel install settings. dovecot -n output below I have created the new

Hi, I'm working for tuning a busy cluster of dovecot servers. Heach server as 4 core, 8GB of RAM and provide POP3 and IMAP access to mailbox. OS is Debian 6.0 and dovecot version is 1.2.15. I am unsure how to set "login_max_processes_count" and "login_max_connections" for reach the best situation when login_process_per_connection is set to no. I don't know what

Hi, Thank you for pointing me about -xc99 flag, I have compiled and installed dovecot inplace of version 1.0.5 without any special actions on the upgrade. And after starting it immediately got in it's log file messages like: --- dovecot: Oct 16 23:10:18 Error: IMAP(seriv): file_set_size() failed with index cache file /var/spool/imap/seriv/.imap/.git-altlinux-ru/dovecot.index.cache: Invalid

Is anyone running v 1.2.3 and have clients with AVG email scanning? I upgraded a server a few weeks ago (which ran Dovecot and the Maildir mail store), and all of a sudden clients with AVG were unable to use POP. Essentially, AVG freezes. The server upgrade was from FreeBSD 7 to OpenSolaris 2009.06, and I did upgrade the Dovecot version from 1.1.17 to 1.2.3, but kept the same config.

Hi. Perhaps you can help me with this: What I do is using Nagios (actually Icinga) and having checks on remote hosts executed via ssh. In order to dramatically speed checks up (from about 0,300 ms to 0,010 ms) I use ControlMaster = auto, which also makes the mux process spawned on the first check. As checks are typically sequentially scheduled I want the mux process to persist but it should

Hi all, I have a Postfix+Dovecot working in beta/testing; it seems to run very fine, but one beta-tester user says that kmail informs him about frequent desconnections. My dovecot -a shows: # /etc/dovecot.conf base_dir: /var/run/dovecot log_path: info_log_path: log_timestamp: %b %d %H:%M:%S syslog_facility: mail protocols: imaps listen: [::] ssl_listen: ssl_disable: no ssl_ca_file:

It appears that when running Dovecot as a proxy-only box with "login_process_per_connection = no", it ignores the value of login_max_logging_users. And in Linux, since each socket requires a file descriptor, if you don't increase the maximum number of open files that each process is allowed to have open, imap-login will reach the 1024 open file limit and start logging the following

Hello, I have a mail server running vm-pop3 and I am migrating it to Dovecot. I have a problem configuring Dovecot as a POP3 server only (I'm not interested in IMAP for now). I have two types of domains: one principal domain, whose users don't include the domain in the login process; and secondary domains, whose users include the domain part with the ! separator, instead of @ (i.e.
