similar to: dovecot-lda "-f" argment optional?

I am trying to configure my Dovecot installation to provide Vacation/Out-of-the-office emails using the Sieve plugin. My setup is a little bit peculiar: Internet Internet | ^ V | Provider's POP3 server Provider's SMTP server |

Hi there! I have been setuped exim and dovecot. Exim uses dovecot-lda to deliver mails to mailbox. Some configurations of exim: dovecot_virtual_delivery: ? driver = pipe ? command = /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $local_part@$domain -f $sender_address ? message_prefix = ? message_suffix = ? delivery_date_add ? envelope_to_add ? return_path_add ? log_output ? user = vmail ? group = vmail ?

Hello, I'm tinkering with Dovecot-LDA in order to achieve: + Better intergration into sendmail, and + tweaking its way to act on errors. Attached patch is a "brainstorming" like suggestion: a) when sendmail is dropping a message, it spawns the LDA, captures stderr/stdout and, if the LDA returns an exit code != 0, generates either a DSN or, when EX_TEMPFAIL, queues the mail.

Hello everyone, I have a small problem with dovecot installed on ubuntu-13.10. I use dovcot as LDA with a LDAP-passdb and a pam-passdb. The userdb is static. A mail to LDAP-user 'foo' is delivered with the error-message dovecot: lda(foo): Error: User foo doesn't have home dir set, disabling duplicate database A mail to the pam-user 'bar' will deliverd without this error.

For a long time I have had configuration where mails were fetched by fetchmail then passed to exim and then passed to dovecot via lmtp. Recently I remove dovecot module and mails are passed from exim to dovecot via dovecot-lda Yesterday I have some kind of accident and lost my .fetchids file so a lot of mails were fetched again. During duplicate hunting I found something strange: messages fetched

I moved from the LDA to LMTP and a lot of ?weird? things stopped. Let me know if you?d like to see my exim setup.

Hi list, I'm having an issue on a server thats been running ok for years, its running Exim 4.91 onto of FreeBSD 10.4 with Dovecot 2.3.1. Recently I've started seeing messages getting stuck in the queue for local delivery and upon checking the Exim log I see this: 2018-06-01 17:31:09.339 [48228] 1fOmxJ-000CXp-3s <a.smith at ldexgroup.co.uk>: dovecot_delivery transport output:

Hello All, I have built up my email server with exim + dovecot + clamv/spamassasin. I am using exim as LDA(local delivery agent). I was reading about using dovecot as LDA but I couldn't find why should I use it? Now, I am looking expert advice on "Why should I use dovecot LDA" ? Is there any benefit in terms of functionality or performance ? Any advice/suggestion/feedbacks

Hi, I'm running Dovecot 2.1.7 on Debian. Exim is the MTA. I was recently made aware of the fact that the way in which Exim invokes dovecot-lda is prone to code injection: dovecot_virtual_delivery: driver = pipe command = HOME=/home/vmail/\$local_part /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f \$sender_address use_shell .. I.e. a command is executed via the shell, and Exim uses

Hi I configured Exim with dovecot LDA and added quota (dict/mysql). It works but it seems that dovecot is not reporting situation back to exim process - it looks like Exim returns OK(accepted) to smtp sender before the message is actually delivered - if the quota is exceeded then LDA drops the mail and sends DSN. Is it possible to change that behavior to report problem immediately (within

hi all, i've exim 4.53RC2 + dovecot-cvs on OSX 10.4.2. i'm working on implementing recipient-delimiters for delivery from exim to a user's imap store using dovecot's cvs-lda. reading on the wiki (Jakob's latest comments?): " ... the part after the delimiter is passed to the lda as an additional parameter. so dovecot-lda should handle that parameter and leave the

I've just started using Dovecot, and can't seem to get the LDA to work. I get the following error: Mar 4 00:47:19 thebighonker dovecot: lda(ler): Error: user ler: Initialization failed: namespace configuration error: Duplicate namespace prefix: "" Mar 4 00:47:19 thebighonker dovecot: lda(ler): Fatal: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information. Mar 4

I've just tried out Dovecot LDA. The reason I didn't want to use it before was that I found it unnecessary together with Exim, plus I wanted to use Exim's filtering. But now I wanted to see if can notice any improvement when the indexes are updated on delivery, and I saw that it's possible to use Exim filters and pass the resulting folder with -m. Now, correct me if I'm

I cannot seem to get exim/lda working... In my exim log i just see these 2010-07-18 11:51:08 1OaYOJ-0003Vn-2P == brandon at olypen.com R=router_pop T=dovecot_deliver defer (2): No such file or directory: failed to chdir to maildir:~/maildir:INDEX=~/maildir/dovecot-index Now I have all the debugging on as far as i can tell, and exim is obviously being returned some value from dovecot because it

Hello list I am testing mdbox with Dovecot from http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0-sis/.and my MTA is Exim. It appears to crash, but I am not sure how to capture the actual crash.

Hi, While moving services to a new server, I finally decided to switch from exim + procmail delivery to exim + dovecot-LDA (dovecot 1.2.5). All accounts are virtual - their settings are stored in mysql. This also includes configuring Quota and Sieve. So... there come some doubts: 1. Using "deliver" As I see, deliver uses auth-master socket to retrieve the mailbox settings

So as to make sure that Dovecot Sieve's vacation system works Exim has to be forced to generate a "Reply-To:" header in the message (which it doesn't do by default). The current example for using the Dovecot LDA with Exim doesn't do this. Here is a replacement example for the local_delivery transport:- local_delivery: driver = pipe command =

Hi, I've recently started using dovecot-lda to handle my local maildir deliveries from Exim. Unfortunately I've been experiencing the occasional failed delivery - My Exim logs were showing: Child process of virtual_dovecot_delivery transport (running command "/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $local_part@$domain -f $sender_address -a

Answering to myself, The issue was as a result of a config parameter for SOGo: Changed NGImap4ConnectionStringSeparator = "/"; to NGImap4ConnectionStringSeparator = "."; and the problem is solved.
