similar to: Data loss from removing dovecot.index* files?

The problem is the file glob on line 344 in convert_subscriptions() # read updates from the directory my %updates; foreach (<$keyword_dir/*>) { This isn't going to pick up any files beginning with a dot, so most of the update files in the courierimapkeywords directory are going to be skipped.

It looks like the build problems with the flexible array members in Dovecot 1.1 and GCC 2.95 has been raised several times already on this list, but no one mentioned out that autoconf 2.61+ provides a macro to deal with these. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Hello Dovecot users, Not much Sieve development was done in the last five weeks, but some important platform-dependent bugs were found and repaired. The main new feature is the addition of a custom Sieve language extension for debugging in the Sieve command line tools. Changelog Sieve v0.1.4: * Started work on the sieve-filter tool. With this command line tool it will be possible to

Im trying to clarify if I understand correctly about authorizing users. "The simplest login method is sending the user login info in plain text and allowing access only to users that already have UNIX access (ie. in /etc/passwd) to the machine dovecot is running on." Im using fetchmail postfix dovecot on my own personal computer to get my mail from two servers. What Im wanting to

This may have been asked before - if so I apologize. Some mail clients - like Thunderbird - can provide a virtual folder or "saved search" to provide a list of mails that match certain criteria. Obviously, unless special client-side caching is implemented - which Thunderbird (my own client of choice) - does not, generation of these folders take time. Does Dovecot have any

Custom imap flags (like $label1, $label2 in mozilla TB) don't saved in maildir after upgrade to 1.1.10. In logs no errors obout this. With mailbox custom flags works OK. -- Anton Yuzhaninov

At this point I don't think I can do anymore damage to my mail server but I'd like to know if anyone else is using the pre-built RPM files from ATrpms before I install them? http://dl.atrpms.net/all/dovecot-1.1.11-0_90.el5.i386.rpm http://dl.atrpms.net/all/dovecot-sieve-1.1.6-9.el5.i386.rpm Or is there a dovecot-sieve for 1.0.7 from the rpmforge repo? I haven't found it yet but

Hello fellow dovecot users! I have a question for you guys. I have a server running dovecot/exim and I allow both pop/pops and imap/imaps. When I look at the running processes, I see a lot of imap processes that look like the following: imap [user at domain.tld USER_IP] Sometimes, there are duplicates imap [user at domain.tld USER_IP] processes. I was wondering, how come those processes

Hi there, I was having lots of trouble with the normal expire plugin so I decided to try and come up with a plugin that handles the trash directory in the same way as Courier (when the user logs out it should clean messages from the trash that have been there for more than X days.) I used the expire and trash plugins as a guide but there are probably a number of things done wrong here

Hello, Currently, on our new test server, I am offering IMAP on 143 and POP3 on 110. We would like to enable security on both of these protocols to attempt to eliminate the risk from an internal password-grabbing/content-grabbing attack. I presume this would mean enabling SSL, and a more securure authentication, right? Or are plain text passwords just sent over the SSL, and therefore perfectly

Hello people, I used primarily mutt and sendmail for many years. (And elm before mutt.) All my mail was saved into ~/Mail. Messages from, say, smith at foo.ber were stored in ~/Mail/smith; all mail from smith was catenated into one file, and if I wanted to find something that smith had written, I would just cd to ~/Mail and grep or egrep on a likely word or phrase. Is there a script

Hi, We are using gmail (google apps) across our company with most users using outlook (windoze) or evolution (linux) and imap/pop based on user preference. We are having issues in that our internet links are fairly slow and when users download mails they get frustrated with the time it takes and often get timeouts and issues where outlook fails to fetch a mail yet gmail thinks it was retrieved -

Hi All, I'm running Dovecot 1.2.9 and have noticed the IMAP list command does not appear to send a sorted list of folders with list command. For example on our Cyrus server I get a sorted list of folders (with INBOX listed first): 2 list "" "*" * LIST (\Noinferiors) "/" "INBOX" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "CalProject" * LIST

I'm looking for a way to set the \Seen flag on certain mail no matter what. Currently I'm using a global sieve script to do this. From what I've read, there is no way to enforce the global script if the user creates their own sieve script. More details: I have a postfix transport that along with sender_bcc_maps and recipient_bcc_maps uses deliver to create a read only archive of

Hi, We run 1.1.3 and I use Outlook to connect to my IMAP box and a couple of times per day (randomly) when I click certain folders IMAP will start retrieving ALL headers for that folder again ('retrieving new headers')! I don't understand this. What triggers IMAP to do so, why not just retrieve only the NEW headers? Is it Dovecot or Outlook (probably) and what can be done

Hi, I have been experimenting with the Virtual mailboxes plugin [1] recently. This is my setup: the following dovecot-virtual file exists in a virtual mailbox called "todo": ------ dovecot-virtual ------ * -Trash -Trash/* -Spam -Spam/* OR KEYWORD $TODO KEYWORD todo ----------------------------- so if any mail in any mailbox except Trash+Spam has the keyword "$TODO"

Hi, on my small Xen-virtualised server with 48 MiB RAM I use Postfix and Dovecot, because the Debian administrators dislike qmail [1], which is in my opinion despite some maintainability and code quality issues a quite well designed software, because it mostly follows the UNIX principles. Postfix is not able to sort my E-Mail into different Maildir folders and after I looked at procmail's

Hi, I'm a long term dovecot user, packager and believer, but on the other side of the wire I've been a mutt user for longer than I can think. Which modern email client under Linux is working best with dovecot? I just did a grep on User-Agent:/X-Mailer: on my dovecot archive (which goes back to 2004) and found that the top ten are: 28% Thunderbird 25% Evolution 9% Apple Mail 9% Mutt

Hello, I'm a developer on the Orbited project (http://www.orbited.org), which provides a TCPSocket interface in javascript (emulated over HTTP using ajax and comet.) This TCPSocket allows true bi-directional communication between a web browser and an arbitrary tcp server. One of the other developers pointed me to a recent dovecot thread about webmail. Sorry for the new thread (I just joined
