used_file_size too large
Hi.
Just got this error (1.1.rc4), is it something to worry about?
Corrupted index cache file /.../Maildir/.Sent/dovecot.index.cache:
used_file_size too large
This is a shared mailbox with concurrent access. In general, can that
usage pattern mess up the index? I am guessing "no", which is why I worry
slightly about the warning.
Cheers,
Anders.

Corrupted index cache file
Hello
I got this error yesterday
dovecot: Feb 11 16:07:27 Error: IMAP(dumontj): FETCH for mailbox Sent UID 7139 got too little data: 11112 vs 11160
dovecot: Feb 11 16:07:27 Error: IMAP(dumontj): Corrupted index cache file /user/dumontj/.imap/Sent/dovecot.index.cache: Broken virtual size for mail UID 7139
Does remove the cache will cure the problem ?
Thanks

Postfix and Dovecot SASL
Hello all,
I am struggeling to get my Dovecot SASL to work within postfix. I have used
the configuration example listed on the main-site of dovecot and it
basically isn't giving me any success at all. I am probably missing
something easy, but after spending a few days testing and walking through
everything I could think about I thought figured it was better to ask :)
Hope someone can point me

How to deal with mail to unknown virtual recipients?
Hello list,
I am not quite sure whether this is a questions for Dovecot or Postfix. I have
set up, virtual hosting for one domain (for test purposes) using a
passwd-file as passdb and a static userdb (see dovecot -n at the end) along
with Postfix in a manner described in [1], i.e. a non-Postfix mail store.
Other than that I also do hosting for the canonical domain which is for users

Sieve, and logging.
Hi All,
Relatively new to Dovecot - converting from courier-imap. So far, I've
got it working with virtual users (postfixadmin tables), and it seems to
be working. I'm trying to get sieve working. It's not, so I tried
turning up the logging, and putting it into a separate log file to get
it out of the syslog for now. I can get the main dovecot to log, but
I cannot get any log

Index file (date timestamp) issue on OS X 10.6.2 Server
Hi,
I've run into a bit of a problem and exhausted my knowledge and research. I'm hoping that I've overlooked something very obvious!
I moved from a single Apple OS X 10.6.2 server Dovecot environment to a NFS clustered environment, currently with two servers. Both servers are identical hardware, software. Currently both the Dovecot index and data files are on the NFS RAID array.

is it possible to fetch messages for multiple users using a single account?
Dear list,
I am running dovecot with LDAP. Each account has email in form
abc at example.com, and messages are stored at /var/vmail/abc/Maildir.
This is an external mail server, and I would like to use a cron job to
fetch all messages to an internal server which has slow internet
connection.
It seems getmail supports multidrop retriever which might fit the
bill. However I could not figure out how

IMAP Directory Issues (brand new install)
Hi,
I just installed dovecot 1.1.11 and am having some issues. Mail appears to
be delivered to the Maildirs just fine, but when a client (Thunderbird)

symlink() failure in 1.2 managesieve
I've been simultaneously learning about dovecot and experimenting with
the 1.2.alpha4. To start I built an rpm under CentOS 5.2 from:
dovecot-1.2.alpha4.tar.gz
dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.2.tar.gz
dovecot-1.2.alpha4-managesieve-0.11.2.diff.gz
dovecot-1.2.alpha4.tar.gz
dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.2.tar.gz
and then setup with mysql to use virtual users. Mail-wise, it all
works. :)

1.1 master auth not expanding static userdb variables
Can dovecot-1.1 deliver work with static userdb? I'm currently running
dovecot-1.0.12 and postfix-2.4.6, with virtual users' maildirs all owned
by vmail and mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/%Lu. The following
definition of the dovecot transport in postfix/master.conf works fine with
dovecot-1.0:

Master user and missing folders
Hello again.
I am trying to use a master user. The login works. However, a LIST
command gives me only the INBOX. Is this to be expected? When logging in
normally, I do get the full list of folders.

plus addressing bug in dovecot 1.1.x?
I had recently upgraded from Dovecot 1.0.14 to 1.1.0, and then to
1.1.1. Ever since the upgrade to 1.1.0, I noticed that "plus
addressing" has failed. In case I'm using a foreign phrase, this is
the concept of sending an e-mail to "user+spam at domain.com", and having
dovecot (dovecot LDA, specifically), deliver this to the "spam"

NFS Maildirs
Hi,
We have our user homedirs on nfs so I enabled nfs parameters in dovecot.conf. Everything works fine but when I want to delete a homedir of a user I can't delete it because I can't remove the .nfs files in the Maildir. I don't want to stop dovecot, remove the homedir and start dovecot. Is there another way to accomplish this.
Thanks,
Martijn

Problem with opening ports in alpha5 ?
If I leave the "listen" value as the default in /etc/dovecot.conf I'll
get a message similar to the following on each port that it tries to
open during startup:
# dovecot -F
Fatal: listen(::, 143) failed: Address already in use
If I set either:
listen = *
or
listen = [::]
then it will start up fine. Perhaps it is as though the code tries to
open the port twice for both

Problem with managesieve (and virtual users?)
Hello,
I use the debian packages from http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/
version 1.1.7-0~auto+17
If I put a sieve script into /home/vmail/sieve-scripts/test.de/test.sieve
it is used, so cmusieve works.
But if I activate managesieve I get in the log:

Postfix with Deliver (LDA) - user unknown
Good Day All! I am attempting to configure deliver as our LDA. I am
also configuring the server to use Postfix instead of Sendmail. I
have followed the all the documentation and examples I could find.
Below are my Dovecot and Postfix configs. Can someone please smack me
upside the head and tell me why I am getting "user unknown" errors?

Why dovecot does not want to read my acl file?
Hi,
Simple Scenario: Shared namespace and a specific UNIX group should have
access to it. System is Debian lenny (stable).

separator = .
prefix = Shared.
location = maildir:/var/mail/shared
