similar to: outlook idiocy - IMAP folders with /

I tell users to limit the folder characters to /0-9a-zA-Z_/, because anything else may upset a mail client or server. As I have no control over their minds, hands, and client software, I wish I could enforce the policy from the server, returning an error message to the client. On its turn, this requires the client to listen to such server messages, operated by a smarter user. At the end of the

I think we need a public compliance test, similar to html and ssl, then people would start questioning the quality of their own client, and migrate to better ones. When Micro$oft will eventually feel the pinch, then they will start fixing their $hit. People have the power! (I like that song.)

It should be mentioned somehow that one can't just change the hierarchy separator on the fly (without manual changes to the fs). If you used . as the separator, it would look this in the filesystem: .testfolder.sub1 Now you change the separator to $. Your mail client will see the existing

Hi all What is the best strategy to add another storage to an existing virtual mail system ? Move some domains to the new storage and create symlinks ? Switch to dovecot hashing ? But in this case what is the easy-east way to migrate ? Thanks for any suggestions or tips !

i've upgraded dovecot on my server to 2.3.9 works properly but saslauthd that uses it for rimap authentication over 127.0.0.1 works SLOW. You need to wait 15-20 seconds before authentication. only imap login over 127.0.0.1 is slowed down, while over any other IP is quick. i had this problem with older version of dovecot but it was about adding login_trusted_networks = 127.0.0.1 but i

i use dovecot 2 under FreeBSD (dovecot2-2.2.15 compiled from ports). tried both with kqueue enabled or not. everything works very fast, EXCEPT fetching big mail. tried multiple clients (thunderbird on windows, alpine on the same server, alpine on other unix server connected by 1Gb/s LAN) and fetching peaks at 1MB/s. NO SSL! could you please point me where to search for a problem. hints:

No, it is saslauthd. Check the documention and see the "-r" parameter of saslauthd. Alexander

i've tried to replace saslauthd with dovecot sasl service stopped saslauthd daemon and added service auth { unix_listener /var/run/saslauthd/mux { mode = 0660 user = root group = mail } } so it will listen on the same socket. the effect with sendmail is as below Mar 23 21:23:29 <2.3> puchar dovecot: auth: Error: Authentication client not compatible with this server (mixed

Hi! Anybody got a doveadm script which can remove leading and trailing spaces from folder names? Right now we're migrating mailboxes from dovecot -> Exchange, and Exchange cannot handle leading and trailing spaces in Folder names. -- Ralf Hildebrandt Gesch?ftsbereich IT | Abteilung Netzwerk Charit? - Universit?tsmedizin Berlin Campus Benjamin Franklin Hindenburgdamm 30 | D-12203
