I am running Thunderbird 2.0.0.14 on Windows XP. When I try to delete one of the folders I get a dialog with the following "The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: Target mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes." I am running dovecot version 1.0.13-6.fc8 under Fedora 8. The output of dovecot -n is below; [root at www knute]# dovecot -n # 1.0.13:

I'm trying to set up replication between two servers and I've hit a snag. I have two users and am using mbox files.

I'm building a new server and using a newer version of ubuntu server that uses Dovecot 2.0. I thought I would like to use Maildir instead of the mbox that was used in the previous server. What do I have to do to convert my mbox mail to Maildir? Or should I just use mbox and copy it over :-)? Thanks, -- Knute Johnson

I've currently got dovecot running on a Fedora server and I want to move all my mail to my new server running ubuntu. Both use mbox and I have IMAP working in both. Can I just copy the ~user/mail directory and /var/mail/user file and replace them in the new server?

Hi: I'm running dovecot on a Fedora 3 box and would like to be able to make a TLS connection to it with my Pegasus Mail program running on my Winblows machine. Does anybody know if it is possible? If it is I could really use some help configuring my dovecot. I have tried for several days but I really don't know what I'm doing and need a direction to start. Thanks, -- Knute

I currently have a mail server using Dovecot and sendmail. I was thinking I would like to have a backup of my mail and an additional server in case of hardware failure. Is it possible to run two identical or nearly identical server setups and sync the mail files between them? If it is possible, in general terms how would one go about this? Thanks, -- Knute Johnson

I have a new install of FC5 running dovecot 1.0.0 beta 2.7. I get my mail with POP3 but I have a user using IMAP. They both work great but I keep getting a message from dovecot in my mail saying DON'T DELETE THIS MESSAGE -- FOLDER INTERNAL DATA. I think it is there to help keep track of IMAP messages. Since I use POP3 is there any way not to have it show up all the time? I've

Hi: I get the occasional error below. Is there something I don't have configured correctly? Or should I just ignore this? It is not always this file, sometimes it is the cache.lock file or the log.newlock file. I have a mail client running on my computer and my phone at the same time, could that have something to do with it? Nov 10 08:32:59 rabbitbrush dovecot: IMAP(bob):

I just upgraded my Ubuntu server from 11.10 to 12.04.1 and that upgraded Dovecot to 2.0.19. For some reason I'm getting a lot more (5 times) disconnect in IDLE and inactivity time outs. I'm using only IMAP with two users. Both users access the server from multiple devices, phone, tablet and desktop computer. I had previously set the max_userip_connections to 20 and rarely got the

I'm about to bring up a new mail server running Ubuntu 11.10 with Dovecot 2. I've been using 1.2 all along and there are a bunch more config files in 2. In 1.2 I just edited the protocols statement but I can't find one in version 2. Is there a way to disable pop3 or do I just firewall the ports? And a related question, I've been using imaps on port 993 but I hear

Hey: When I run dovecot and retrieve any mail for a user, a mail directory is created in the users home. It has a subdirectory Inbox. No mail goes there however, it all goes to /var/spool/username. What is that directory for and how do I get it to not make it or can I? I am only using POP3. Thanks, -- Knute Johnson Molon Labe...

Hi all, I am looking for a book from which one could learn a wide range of graphics in R, from the very beginning topics to those advanced (though not necessarily concerned with a particular method or topic). I don't look for a list of such books since this is on R's web page, I am rather interested in your opinion on these books - which you would recommend. The quality of writing and
