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

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

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

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. :)

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.

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)
tries to retrieve them I get this:

> aedisit.com/info/cur/1251566335.V14I27a91M380600.kim): Filename keeps

Segfault on antispam plugin
Hi Johanners Berg,
I put the antispam plugin to work (some days ago) and now my imap

I don't have nothing (wrong) in logs, just a lot of segfaults...

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

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.

Panic: file maildir-uidlist.c: line 1242 (maildir_uidlist_records_drop_expunges): assertion failed
Hi all,
after inserting another sieve-rule, I get the following backtrace on
deliver.
The mail gets delivered into the Mailbox, but as deliver does not exit
with 0, postfix bounces the mail.
The additional rule is the same as all others in my .dovecot-sieve:
> require ["fileinto", "include"];
>
> if header :contains ["From"]

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.
(using Dovecot 1.1 rc3.)

Released Sieve v0.1.7 and ManageSieve v0.11.6 for Dovecot v1.2.0
Hello Dovecot users,
I hereby release new versions of the Sieve packages for the recently
released Dovecot v1.2.0 (Congrats Timo!). Apart from small changes to
make things compile with Dovecot again, a few other bugs were fixed as
well.
Unfortunately, the (FreeBSD-specific) 8kb script truncation bug remains.
Although it is reported for Dovecot v1.1.16, I see no reason why it
should not

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"

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:
