Hi, is there a *simple* HOWTO that explains a simple postfix+dovecot setup? Up to now, I used postfix+cyrus, worked fine. But I do not get postfix+dovecot to work. Currently, all emails go to /dev/null. What really would help me is a dovecot lmtp server. Is there any?

Hello: In the process of migration from version 1.2 to 2.0 have tried to use lmtp instead of lda as delivery agent. But unfortunately througput we get is poor with lmtp compared to lda. In peak times with lda we are able to deliver over 1800 messages/minute (high I/O but not affecting service) but if we switch to lmtp cannot deliver more than 300 mess/minute (very low I/O). This is enough

Hi there, I'm using Dovecot together with Postfix; as I understand it, there are two ways to transfer the mail from Postfix to Dovecot. 1.) by using LDA with mailbox_command = /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f "$SENDER" -a "$RECIPIENT" 2.) by using LMTP with mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp (currently using number 1) I'm interessted in the

Hi, I'm trying to use dovecot-lmtp so that I can filter messages with sieve, however it doesn't appear to be working. I followed the instructions on wiki2.dovecot.org. I'm running Debian Wheezy. I've got runit configured to execute postfix and dovecot, which may be the source of the problem (runit executes /usr/sbin/dovecot -F). I've got mail_debug turned on and there is

:-) I'm using postfix for mail delivery and dovecot for mailbox access imaps pop3s. Postfix resolves, verifies and overwrites users' addresses by numerous subtle LDAP queries. However users are visible as local ones (openldap, pam, nss) in the sense I can run `id' or `finger' queries and receive replies. Dovecot handles all mailboxes over imap/pop correctly with no

I am setting up a new system that will be using Dovecot with Postifx. I am planning on using LMTP. I read the wiki and and found the settings I need to make in Dovecot and the Postfix main.cf file. However, I saw nothing about the Postfix master.cf file. Do I need to make and changes to it also? Thanks -- Jerry

Hi all after lots of trial and error and the help of THIS mail list, finally my dovecot-postfix combination seems to work yet the dovecot mail spool always is empty all mail forwarded to my main mail server - but i have no mail relay configured. why is the mail NOT in the dovecot inbox but forwarded to another mail server ?? and why does postconf -A show cyrus and NOT dovecot ?? below some

Hello we are using version 2.2.13 on debian. currently imap runs on the same system as postfix , spamassassin and other mail related software. I'd like to move dovecot imapd and mail storage to its own system. I've search google and wiki and could not see how to do so. could someone please point me in the direction to that done? I like reading documentation.. here is more

Hello Reindl, thank you for the response. I want to make sure that the postfix delivery does not give up trying to get the email delivered when the lmtp host is not reachable. I do not just want to assume that the default settings are correct for us. Are there postfix or other settings which can be checked and adjusted?

Hi All, I'm new to dovecot (coming from cyrus) and have a bit of a problem setting up postfix + dspam + dovecot. 1. postfix + dovecot: works like a charm. Using "mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver" in postfix main.cf 2. adding dspam to the equation: unable to deliver: net_connect(/usr/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: No such file or directory Using

I'm running postfix + dovecot on my CentOS-7 home server. When I send myself a message I get this error message in /var/log/maillog: Aug 9 12:59:57 alfred postfix/lmtp[31336]: B0D02220748: to=<tim at localhost.gayleard.eu>, orig_to=<tim at localhost>, relay=alfred.gayleard.eu[private/dovecot-lmtp], delay=475, delays=474/0.03/0.02/0.09, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred

OK I got delivery from postfix to lmtp working , by changing from unix_listener to inet_listener . Reindl wrote "don't open the port for any other machine as the postfix server" I see that is important.. I assume that just a firewall setting? Or does the 'address' line in inet_listener lmtp have something to do with it? On Wed, Feb 18, 2015 at 12:37 PM,

I really want to try and get this plus addressing working correctly with Dovecot and Postfix. After doing some reading I think I am going to change my Postfix setup from mailbox_command to mailbox_transport. I have a few questions to make sure I am thinking correctly. All of my users are system users. Their mail is delivered directly to their "/home/<user>/Maildir"

The port is currently only available to a few trusted machines, but having auth available would have been a nice benefit in case the firewall

I am wondering if it's possible to have a tcp listener for LMTP do authentication and not accept any unauthenticated mail. My configuration looks like the following: service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { address = 192.168.0.1 127.0.0.1 port = 24 } } This gives me a network reachable lmtp socket, but of course no autentication. When reading the docs, it seems though that only
