According to a message to this list from Oli Schacher, http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2011-June/059493.html, all I need to do is copy the deleted emails to their original folder and dovecot will take care of it: On Tue Jun 7 08:43:54 EEST 2011 Oli Schacher wrote: >> OK, but if I want to restore a particular mail from backups, what're >> the steps involved?

Thanks for the reply Heiko > About the 'cur' I'd not be too sure. Well, I'm just restoring to .Deleted Items, so it shouldn't be a problem. The tar restore should preserve names, permission, etc. I'll backup the current Maildir, the try the restore and see what happens. I'll report back. --Mark -----Original Message----- > Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2015 23:36:52 +0100

We consider deploying a two server active-active setup with dsync replication for ~2500 users. I was wondering how people handle sieve script synchronization in such setups. We came up with a few options for syncing: 1) rsync/unison ~/sieve every x seconds 2) move sieve dirs to separatate partition and sync with gluster or drbd 3) patch roundcube managesieve sieve plugin to upload

Hi list I'm still trying to get managesieve running on centos x64 with the packages from atrpm. I used the 1.2.9 rpms (also rebuilt with the lastet managesieve patches) but I'm always getting the same error when trying to compile managesieve: ./configure --with-dovecot=/usr/lib64/dovecot/ --with-dovecot-sieve=/work/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.14 (no errors) make gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.

Hi # 2.2.1 (83d83f55e5c2+) / dsync replicated setup I just noticed that 'doveadm search' apparently tries to replicate mailboxes and spits out errors if a mailbox in the search query is not found: #doveadm search -u user at example.com mailbox Spamreport doveadm(user at example.com): Error: Syncing mailbox Spamreport failed: Mailbox doesn't exist: Spamreport this is especially

Hi I enabled quota + warnings in my replication test setup and now whenever a mail gets delivered the quota is counted twice (probably due to both servers using the same mysql quota backend) and quota warnings are fired too early. After a doveadm quota recalc -u <username> the quota is correct again. How do I make dovecot only count the quota on the server where the mail was added

Hi Timo With the current dovecot hg we're getting dsync replication errors "Panic: Unknown key: send_mail_requests" followed by a crash. This seems to have been introduced somewhere around http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/4883a8e1db13 Log output from latest hg, 2.2.2 (e7c474011934+): May 29 09:30:53 munged03 dovecot: doveadm(luke at example.com): Panic: Unknown key:

I've done the installation (rpm downloaded from the RHES4 link given by Oli below) but dovecot won't start, it gave the error pop3-login & imap-login not supported by protocol. I'm sure with a much older version (in my previous post) of dovecot, I'm able to start up dovecot & it did not give this error. Thought dovecot is suppose to come with pop3 & imap? # rpm -Uvh

Hi list Trying to get sieve for 1.2 running (dovecot sieve, not cmusieve) I'm running on centos 5.4 64bit, dovecot rpms installed from http://atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot/ ( dovecot-1.2.7-0_102.el5.x86_64.rpm and dovecot-devel-1.2.7-0_102.el5.x86_64.rpm ) I pulled the sieve sources ( hg clone http://hg.rename-it.nl/dovecot-1.2-sieve ) autogen.sh ./configure

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2.rc7.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2.rc7.tar.gz.sig OK, still not quite v2.2.0, but now it's definitely very close. :) * checkpasword: AUTH_PASSWORD environment is no longer set. * Running dsync no longer triggers quota warnings. + dsync: Commit large transactions every 100 new messages, so if a large sync crashes it

I changed some quota options in my dovecot config (eg. excluded folders) but afaik this only affects new mail and there is no magic command to recalculate the quota (or is there?). So I wrote this little python script to do this, maybe someone finds it useful. It can output the sql statements (dovecot 1.0/1.1 and 1.2 format) or just print out quota usage to console.

Hi Timo http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/1f3f21081ee5 : man pages: Updated v2.1 -> v2.2 dovecot.1.in now references a inexistent "LGPLv2.2" instead of "LGPLv2.1"

Hi I'm betatesting the new acl features in dovecot 1.2. System: Centos 5.2, dovecot 1.2beta4 built with the spec file from http://dl.atrpms.net/all/dovecot.spec I set up two accounts (sales at domain, oli at domain), I could access them both without problems (testing with Thunderbird) Then I tried to share the sales INBOX as descibed in http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared: 1

Hi Timo With dovecot built from the latest 2.2.9 hg (342f6962390e) we get imap crashes. This only affects one account which is used by multiple clients. The first few logins seem to work ok, but after a few seconds the log is flooded with Dec 5 13:43:10 team dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<sales at example.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=1.2.3.4, lip=5.6.7.8, mpid=27923, TLS,

Is there a way for setting up dovecot in such a way that a user can "jump back in time" to an old mailbox "state" in order to retrieve his accidentially deleted mail? -- Ralf Hildebrandt Gesch?ftsbereich IT | Abteilung Netzwerk Charit? - Universit?tsmedizin Berlin Campus Benjamin Franklin Hindenburgdamm 30 | D-12203 Berlin Tel. +49 30 450 570 155 | Fax: +49 30 450

After adding the configuration bit: deny message = invalid recipient domains = +local_domains !verify = recipient/callout=no_cache from: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LMTP/Exim <http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LMTP/Exim> running update-exim4.conf and service exim4 restart the server is still accepting emails to recipients that do not exist in dovecot. Any ideas?
