similar to: Multiple domains with shared Folder - how to?

Hi, I have a problem, delivery called from /etc/aliases file by pipe delivers with mode 0600. I need system users with shared mail folders (Maildir format). When I changed alias to pipe to shell wrapper with mode 002 set in it, nothing changed. MTA is sendmail, OS Solaris, and dovecot version 1.1.1. Can somebody help? Here are dovecot settings: --- /opt/dovecot11/sbin/dovecot -n # 1.1.1:

Hello, I added this to the configuration: namespace { type = public separator = . prefix = public. location = maildir:/var/mail/public subscriptions = no list = yes } and I can list maildirs inside these folders correctly. however, I can't see any subfolders. The issue seems to be that /var/mail/public dir itself is interpreted as a maildir directory. However, what I'd

I'm using a virtual mailbox setup. Lets say my users have mailboxes in /home/vmail/domain/%u. What I'm trying to do is setup one namespace that points to /home/vmail/domain and contains everyones mailboxes that I can subscribe to. Is this possible? I tried using a symlink to /home/vmail/domain but it doesn't work because its looking for the dotFoldername. The only way I could

Hi, I'm trying to use dovecot for storing mailing lists and read-only access for users. The OS is Solaris, authentication for all readers of these lists are from Ldap through PAM, and one local user "listuser" will receive all mail and store them into it's folders (Maildirs). These maildirs are readable (read-only) for all others and they are shared by setting --- mail_location:

Good morning! I run an imap-only Ubuntu 8.04 mail server with dovecot 1.2 and pam_ldap, so all my users are posix users. No virtual user or domain, no sql so far. I am setting up shared folders with "namespace shared". I got no errors upon restarting the service, but I get no shared folders listing. As per the wiki http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared I can use a bdb

Hi, I'd like to create a shared folder to be used with an Outlook client and a Thunderbird client. We're currently using mboxes. I've read the documentation here about creating a shared folder: https://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared It doesn't make reference to how to do this using mbox format. Is it possible? Should we convert to Maildir? Perhaps there's a way to

Hi, Sorry to bother the list again so soon after fixing my own problem, but I now have this issue when clients try to view shared folders in Thunderbird (v12). They can see the shared folder, but the first time they click on in nothing happens. The second time they get an authentication failure. The third or fourth time it finally loads the shared mailbox, and I see this a few times in the

Hello, Well, I have a brain-dead user (using Thunderbird 2.0.0.14) who just won't listen when I tell them not to try to move 5000+ messages at one time (or if deleting, bypass the Trash), and they managed to royally screw up their maildirs... I have two problems... 1. The /tmp directory has 9+GB in it... can I just rm tmp/* on that directory without making this problem worse? and 2.

Hello, i'm searching for a way to use Shared mailboxes with Sieve Filtering. I need global email addresses like: info at foo.tld contact at foo.tld help at foo.tld Every address with own Sieve-rules for filtering and sorting of incoming mails. Now every user needs access to this folders, but how? How should i create the "global" addresses? I already found

After upgrading our CentOS 5 box to the latest revisions last week (including Dovecot 1.1), we're seeing the following error message in the log files. Sieve was working fine with Dovecot 1.0. I have yet to turn up anything via Google for this particular error. SELinux is not logging any error messages at the moment, so I'm pretty sure that we've properly allowed all the SELinux

Hello Everybody, I would like to use Dovecot on my desktop with imap but before doing the real migration I have some (very simple) questions: - Is there any way to log in with imap automatically ? That is, from localhost without any passwords. - Can Dovecot work with only readable maildirs? I want to avoid accidental e-mail loss, therefore on some maildir folder I have only read permissions.

Hi, i hve a requirement of setting up two folders which should be shared only to selected users only.

Hello Community, I have implemented shared folders/acl using the 'file' driver sucessfully. Now, I want to move the shared folders information to my sql DB where I have moved all user/nets/quota information. I have read carefully the documentation (https://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared), but, as far as I can see, only the $to and $from (+ dummy) are handled in the DB? I

Hi, I'm trying to set up two shared folder hierarchies on my Dovecot installation for two groups of employees, all of whom should only have access to their own hierarchy. Any employee should be able to create sub-folders and generally have full access to the hierarchy. My initial setup was to create two public namespaces, Shared-One and Shared-Two. Each is a Maildir under /var/mail. The

I'm running dovecot 2.2.16 on my FreeBSD mail server. I've read information on the wiki about setting up shared mailboxes, but I want to do something that isn't really coved by the instructions I was reading there. My son (now 7 years old) has an account on the system, but doesn't use it directly. But, for things he's interested in like Minecraft, and/or the local zoo, we

Hi there, is it possible in any way to have private seen flags for users in a shared mailbox? http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared says no, but i'm not sure, if newer mailbox formats can do this... like mdbox oder something like that. thanks for your help Tobi --

The main reason is that I don't want to provide backup user with unnecessary write permissions within maildirs and mail user within backup logs dir. I was talking about mail_user:mail_group 0750 on dirs and 0640 on files. (Or, possibly, mail_user:backup_group 2750 and 2640.) 26.12.2014, 11:19, "Tobi" <tobster at brain-force.ch>: > Whats the reason you do not want to use
