Hello, It has been brought to my attention that outlook users cant delete folders from their mailbox. They can move them around and erase emails, but when it comes to folders, they cant.. Any ideas..? # dovecot --version 1.1.7 # dovecot -n # 1.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.16.60-0.21-xenpae i686 SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (i586) login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login

Hello, Has anyone used GlusterFS as storage file system for dovecot or any other email system..? It says that it can be presented as a NFS, CIFS and as GlusterFS using the native client, technically using the client would allow the machine to read and write to it, therefore, I think that Dovecot would not care about it. Correct? Anyone out there used this setup?? Thanks.

Hello, I was wondering is I could use MySQL as storage only..? Meaning that no user information, other than the obvious email address associated with an specific email so that each email can be showed to the right user, will be stored in a MySQL database instead of /home/vmail/DOMAIN/<user> Would I get any advantages.? Would it be better, faster? Thanks

Hello, I got Postfix, Dovecot 1.1.7 configure to use pam and the pam.d/dovecot file is configure to use pam_krb5 module. Everything is working with no problems, but I am finding that the user must type the domain part in uppercase in order to successfully authenticate.

Hello, I am wondering if there is any way to support Gmail style conversation when using Dovecot? Someway of associating all inbound and sent emails..? I know that some clients let you display the emails in "conversation" which kinda does what Gmail does, however, it does not associate the Sent emails with it. Thanks for any information.

Hello, I've been thinking about the best way to achieve load balancing and making my mail servers highly available. So far I believe I have 2 scenarios: Scenario1: This should allow any to lose any of the servers and clients still have access to their emails (although I am not sure how the indexes would react to this and sudden disconnection) - 2 Dovecot Proxy servers, using a

Hello, I've been running dovecot for over 3 years now and it works with no problems. I have it setup so that it authenticates users against Active Directory via LDAP and so far no problems.

Hello, I am looking at the docs and I see this: Problems with deliver Namespaces are supported with v1.1 and later. With v1.0 and older versions mails can be delivered only to mailboxes specified by the mail_location setting. But in the dovecot.conf I see: # NOTE: Namespaces currently work ONLY with IMAP! POP3 and LDA currently ignore # namespaces completely, they use only the mail_location

Hello, Last Saturday i scp the vmail folder from server1 running SLES to server2 running Debian. Everything went ok and only have a few small problems, but the one to bring up is that some users cant see their new emails.

Hello again, I have change authentication to LDAP from Kerberos due to recent changes to my plans and I am having a little problem getting the malbox created in desired path.

It would be nice to have some sort of archiving feature on which dovecot can save emails older than N+1 months to either a remote Dovecot server with MySQL as storage or a separate instance of Dovecot running on the same server but storing the emails in MySQL Is any of this possible now, or in the works...? Thanks
