Hello, I have a few users that are often hit by a trojan virus that steals e-mail user and password. Having a very little (if not null) power on their machines, I need to be able to block the outgoing mail wich is handled by postfix via dovecot SASL. Blocking it at dovecot level would be optimal, for the virus doesn't necessarily use the e-mail of the user as its from, just the user and

I know it is not necessarily a good idea... :) It is basicaly to allow fake home addresses from the office for some managers. Thanks for the smtpd_recipient_restrictions list, it sounds interesting!

I'm trying to upgrade a very old sparcstation running Solaris 8 which is running dovecot 1.x for few users. All I have for the task is good old gcc 2.95.2. The poor sod complains because it can't compute the sizeof(unsigned char prefix_text[]) at line 13 of log-error-buffer.c. Can I help it by - say - putting a constant between the '[]'? Or is it unfair? :-) I don't think

I have a problem with a physical user that was removed and recreated whith same name and different uid. The home dir, the mailbox file and the index directory where removed and recreated with the new uid/gid. I can feed the mailbox via procmail, though dovecot-lda complains that userids do not match: May 02 15:27:33 lda(alessandro_cmr): Error: stat(/var/spool/mailboxes/alessandro_cmr/INBOX)

I could use some help here - As I use Dovecot I started here when trying to figure out why I could not add new mail folders under my Mac's Mail program, but could under Thunderbird. It was quickly pointed out that my system was set up to use MBOX and not MAILDIR, and some helpful links and notes were sent back and forth giving me a good clue as to how to perform the conversion

Hello! Sorry for my newbie question, I've notied some lines in my logfile like this: Feb 13 16:05:54 pop3-login: Fatal: master: service(pop3-login): child 10660 killed with signal 11 (core not dumped - add -D parameter to service pop3-login { executable } ... where am I supposed to add the -D option in order to get the core file dumped so I can examine it? Thanks to all, luciano. --

Hi all, I recently migrated my system (postfix/Dovecot)from mbox to Maildir. Almost everything is working (phone and thunderbird show all my mail and folders with mail) However I am stuck on my .procmailrc rules # cat /etc/procmailrc SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail SENDMAILFLAGS=-oi LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail.log ORGMAIL=${HOME}/Maildir/ DEFAULT=${ORGMAIL}

What is the trick to get Postfix's local command to pipe mail through procmail? I have: -bash-4.1$ grep allow_mail_to_commands /etc/postfix/main.cf allow_mail_to_commands = alias, forward and -bash-4.1$ cat .forward |/usr/bin/procmail and a .procmailrc file: -bash-4.1$ cat .procmailrc PATH=/usr/bsd:/bin:/usr/bin:/exp/rcf/share/bin MAILDIR=/var/lib/amanda/Mail #you'd better

Wow! I'm running 1.1 Beta 1 on OpenSuSE linux 10.2. It seems not bad at all. The only thing I've not quite well understood is this message, that pops up when I start dovecot: Warning: fd limit 1024 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load (more than 1536). Either grow the limit or change login_max_processes_count and max_mail_processes settings Where does dovecot take this 1024

I have been trying to set up procmail but I am running into some issues with using deliver.

Hello all, is there a way to make dovecot log the commands it gets from its clients both in imap and pop3? I need to log when messages are deleted so I can tell to the customer when and from which IP address his/her mailbox was emptied. I'm trying to track down problems with M$ Windows Live Mail clients that seem to loose messages now and then. Luciano. -- /"\

Hello all, I've a working dovecot installation on my machine, using exim3, virtual users and maildirs. I would like to add procmailrc rules for these (virtual) users, but i've not succeeded with that. The authentication is done with a passwd-file looking like this : testuser:password:uid:gid::/home/mail/testuser::chroot:maildir:/home/mail/testuser/Maildir/ i've put .procmailrc files

I am using Mac OS X Server. OS X Server uses postfix with dovecot set as mail_transport. I want to add procmail to the mix. I cannot use the (typical) mailbox_command = procmail -a "$EXTENSION" because mailbox_transport = dovecot overrides any mailbox_command parameter and it is NOT Possible to change, remove, or otherwise vary the mailbox_transport on OS X server. I'm

About a year-and-a-half ago I wrote in a thread having this same subject about a problem my sendmail server was having on my Samba4 AD/DC. To solve that problem at the time, I maintained domain user entries in both the sam.ldb and in /etc/passwd, and did not have winbind specified in /etc/nsswitch.conf. I am now trying to remove all users from /etc/passwd and use winbind. Unfortunately, I'm

Dear list! I'd like to know if some- one has experience with system running no mta (aka sendmail). I have single comp, not server, not lan. Yes! Sendmail is nice, but it is too big for simple tasks I have for it. My intention is to use apps small as possible. This letter gone from mutt directly to ssmtp, that processed it to my isp.

Hi there, I use dovecot-1.1-rc4, got imap, imaps, pop3 & pop3s working fine with the mbox format. I use sendmail-8.14.2 as an MTA, sendmail uses procmail as an LDA. I migrated to maildir format now, and pipe all my mail to deliver right now to be able to make use of the indexing etc... Problem is I run into some errors : #My .procmailrc PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin

Hi all. I'm relatively new to Dovecot, but I really like what I'm seeing so far. I have one problem that I was hoping you could help me with though. I use Postfix for my mail server, then pass that on to procmail for filtering, and finally to deliver to put the mail in the appropriate Maildir folder. However, this isn't working. Postfix passes the mail to procmail correctly, but

Hi, I have site w. around 7000 users, most of which have some procmail rules (theres even .procmailrc in /etc/skel with rule to put spam into spam folder). Afaik dovecot's deliver doesnt understand procmail rules, so i'd like to ask if its possible to configure procmail so it saves mail using deliver, without modifying users .procmailrc Thanks for any pointers, Vaclav Hula
