similar to: Automatic purging of old email in all mailboxes

Forgive me, I'm a novice. Consider that today I have already set up a working postfix + Dovecot server with userdb using the static driver and passdb using a password file (in the format <username>:{hashing algorithm}<password hash>). The Dovecot server has several mailboxes which are already in use today. I understand that I'll need to change over to using the passwd-file

Hi, We have a Ubuntu 14.04 server with dovecot 2.2.9 If I try to run /usr/bin/doveadm search -u email at exmaple.com mailbox Junk savedbefore 30d It will dump a core file. We have a similar config on an other server and there is no problem there. Any ideas how to prevent the core dump? root at triws2:~# gdb --args doveadm search -u email at example.com mailbox Junk savedbefore 30d Reading

I've marked several messages in Thunderbird using tags. Tags used are: 0 Important 1 Work 2 To Do 3 Personal 4 Later The messages so tagged appear to have the flag fields set in the IMAP Maildir: cur/1449002162.8993_0.mail:2,Sb cur/1449001929.28087_0.mail:2,Sad I've looked in dovecot-keywords and find: $ more dovecot-keywords 0 $label1 1 $label2 2 $label3 3 $label4 I assume

Still not quite got my head around what you are expecting to see. Presumably folders for other dates in September. Depending on how and why those folders were created they may not exist. I do note that you used an ls to show the folders, and I'm assuming from the config below you are using Maildir, so try an ls -a to show the hidden folders too (those starting with a .). This should show you

Hello, I have an usual isshere we are using thunderbird for client.

Hello Kunal, I've done this once, and it was for bakcup mail too :) in this page (https://ychaouche.informatick.net/dovecotsharefolders) I describe how I shared folders between main e-mail account and backup e-mail account with symlinks and dovecot-acl files pretty easily.

I have noticed that the name of my private server running dovecot appears in email headers rather than the public-friendly name of my server. Is there a method to specify an alternate server name for the dovecot server to use for itself in the dovecot configuration files? I performed a few Google searches and was not able to find the answer to my question. ------- user at server1:~$ dovecot

Well, I tried setting the following in /etc/environment and restarting the server: DOVECOT_HOSTDOMAIN="mail.domain.test" After doing so, I verified that the command "dovecot --hostdomain" returned "mail.domain.test" and not "appserver4.domain.com"; however, the email received header still shows: Received: from mail.domain.test by appserver4.domain.com

Hi, I've been trying this for weeks and never managed to get my mail client to see shared folders. Apparently imap_acl works fine as I can see these entries in the dovecot-acl-list files and the correct entries persist in the client. This is my first dovecot setup so I hope I've configured it right. Everything else works beautifully, thanks. # dovecot -n # 2.2.21 (5345f22):
