We're running Dovecot 2.1.17 on Debian: # 2.1.17 (9efbc0731929): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-042stab078.27.debug i686 Debian 7.1 simfs and we're having this namespace configuration: mail_location = mdbox:/var/mail/%Ld/%Ln/mdbox namespace inbox { disabled = no hidden = no ignore_on_failure = no inbox = yes list = yes location = prefix = separator = .

Hi, I have a complicated SQL backend with stored procedures to generate passdb/userdb queries. This result have the proxy-attribute set and it's very complicated to change that procedures. On one system I tried to override/delete the proxy attribute: passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext override_fields = proxy=n } Looks like that doesn't work.

The mdbox-format with the altstorage-feature is quite nice and important. But we're having much more then >> 30 TB of maildata and doing an fsck on huge partitions takes too much (down-) time for our mailsystem. It would be much easier, if Dovecot would be able to use at least THREE storage-paths for his m-Files (and not just TWO like now). Having an altstorage1 and altstorage2, we

Hi, I have a server with Dovecot 2.1.x and I'm trying to convert mbox-storages to mdbox-storages. # 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 x86_64 Debian 6.0.7 mail_location = mbox:~/mail During the first run everything's okay, but if I run the migration a second time, the later migration is broken: root at mailstore1:/srv/vmail/cklein# rm -R mdbox/ root at

Making consistent backups from Dovecot with mdbox requires a snapshoted filesystem with (at least) a short Downtime for Dovecot. I'd like to avoid killing several thenthousand IMAP-sessions for 60 seconds. Users don't like that... And the admin dislakes that too... What about a "short sleep" mechanism for Dovecot, where all writes are finished and new writes are easily delayed?

Hi! Even on midrange-systems it's necessary to set "ulimit -n" to a higher value then the system default of 1024. I'd prefer having this already prepared: In /etc/defaults/dovecot we should add: # Set amount of "open files" / ulimit -n ULIMIT_OPEN_FILES=16884 In /etc/init.d/dovecot we should add: # Set amount of open files / ulimit -n [ -n

Hi Timo, we wrote a simple Patch for the Dovecot quota policy daemon. If a user is over quota, I prefer blocking the user sending e-mails, so I need a policy daemon, that's able to use the envelope or sasl sender as lookup key. I'd be happy if that patch can become part of the normale Dovecot releases. Peer -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Re: Fwd: Quota-Patch Datum:

We're running Dovecot in a multipe instance cluster with individual userdb-querys to different LDAP-Servers. As far as I can see there's no way to use the doveadm mailbox command with different Auth-Sockets or different configurations.

Using doveadm penalty I just noticed a penalty for 0.0.0.0. Is this Postfix querying the auth-socket for his SASL-requests? I tried adding 0.0.0.0 to login_trusted_networks, but that doesn't help.

I would love to have a) the number of active users b) the number of active TCP sessions (pop3, imap, lmtp, sieve, doveadm) included in the output of "doveadm director ring status". This would be helpful to get a good overview over load and usage of the whole director ring and would help to plan downtimes and maintenance work. Peer -- Heinlein Support GmbH Schwedter Str. 8/9b,

We're using doveadm/dsync/imapc to migrate accounts from Courier to Dovecot 2.2.20. On the source-server some user have folder names including a "%" in their name. Looks like doveadm isn't able to handle that folder names. I always stops with: dsync(testtest): Error: Failed to access mailbox INBOX.Test%TEST: Mailbox does not exist, or must be subscribed to.

Hi, I don't completly understand http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/Gmail I can't find the documentation for the -a and the -F Flag. I'd like to migrate ONLY archived mails from an existing gmail-Account. So I'd have to import all Mails from the \ALL-Folder that does NOT have any virtual folder flags set.
