Hi, Does not create, or something I did wrong? Here http://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home it is written Home vs. mail directory Home directory shouldn't be the same as mail directory. It's possible to do that, but you might run into trouble with it sooner or later. Some problems with this are: and Ways to set up home directory The home directory is the same as the mail directory.

Hallo I build my Installation after HowTo with Archlinux packages: http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/SimpleVirtualInstall I can send e-mail, but pop3 failed: "unknown user" For good popularity needed one or more 100% complete howto step-by-step reusable for full folk.

Edgar, thank you for your help: I have solved gaining access from a client (Evolution) via IMAP to the server: I can refresh, add folders, and delete folders. But I am still confounded, as IMAP does not see any mailboxes. Neither we from the command line (telnet, openssl, login, select) nor the system can find the mailbox, despite following FindMailLocation: telnet, openssl, login, then b

Hi, I'm setting up dovecot pop3 deamon for a small set of mailbox. I want to be able to set a small set of mailbox simply, so I've used "passdb passwd-file" + virtual mailboxes with "userdb static". My problem is that it seems that postfix accept and create mailbox for every address I post. It is configured to use local delivery through dovecot's deliver. How

I've tried to setup Postfix to use SASL, but it still doesn't seem to be working with Dovecot. I've set things up based on these instructions: http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/SimpleVirtualInstall http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA I've compiled Postfix with Dovecot SASL and SSL/TLS support. The problems I'm seeing in Postfix are:

Hi, I have the Dovecot (2.2.27-3+deb9u2) with LMTP and Postfix. Static userdb: userdb { driver = static args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/data/vmail/user/%n allow_all_users=yes } and passdb by LDAP, only to verify IMAP user password by bind. Problem is, when someone sends email to non-existent at mydomain.tld, Dovecot automatically creates its home directory and Maildir. Is there any

One day, I'll use the LDAP. But infrastructure I got is quite neglected and some older admins is hard to convince to innovate. Just, aaaaah :) I read whole documentation related to userdb a and passdb. Easy to understand with relation to IMAP or POP3 access. But what I didn't understand is relation to LMTP. Which one is used and when for successful delivery. I'll try to move

I followed the dovecot instructions ( http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/SimpleVirtualInstall) to create a simple virtual user installation with the /etc/dovecot/passwd file. However, whenever I try to send a message to the virtual user, Postfix has a problem delivering it. Postfix is delivering messages to ~/Maildir, but Dovecot is trying to use /home/vmail/. How can I get the 2 apps to work

Hello, first sorry for this question. I already found many threads about this problem including a thread in this list from August 2010, but nothing helped :( Here is the error: 2010-09-20 06:28:04 lda: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/ 2010-09-20 06:28:04 lda: Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules//lib90_sieve_plugin.so 2010-09-20 06:28:04 lda: Error:

I'm trying to get Dovecot working with Virtual Users and Sendmail on OpenIndiana 151a7. OpenIndiana is the Open Source continuation of OpenSolaris after Oracle tried to kill it off a couple of years ago shortly after acquiring Sun Microsystems. I'm not sure if this is so much a Dovecot problem, as much of a Sendmail problem. I thought this would probably be a better list to start with,

Is it possible to get replication working in a virtual user setup that uses a static userdb ? My environment is fairly simple and typical - there's a single system user (vmail) that owns all the home dirs (/var/mail/domain.com/user). The virtual users (userid at domain.com:secretpassword) are kept in a single file (/var/mail/domain.com/PASSWD) that's unique per domain, and referenced as a
