similar to: OT: Skins for Squirrelmail - looking for a reminder

Greetings - Work moves onward here at setting up our Dovecot IMAP service and I've got a couple more questions, I'm afraid... :-} ============================================== Q1. The UW IMAP Server supports "pre-authenticated connections" -- does Dovecot? Specifically, it is possible to create a symlink from /etc/rimapd to the UW IMAP server binary and then use rsh

Greetings - I've just built Dovecot 1.0beta8 and find it refuses to start. This under Solaris 10 on an Intel-based Sun system. The error message Dovecot displays (on standard error) in response to /usr/local/sbin/dovecot is Fatal: Protocol imaps given more than once I've checked through my configuration file and the only mention of "imaps" is here: # Protocols

Greetings - I've just discovered an oddity I didn't know I had... We have two NetApp filers: one serves people's home directories; the other their message store and control files filestores. At the moment the first of the two filers is not accessible to my Dovecot system and I assumed all would be well because, as far as I knew, I wasn't using it at all. However in

Greetings - I have been looking at Dovecot with a view to migrating us to it from the Washington IMAP server on our Sun systems. To start our testing we first of all installed the pre-built version of Dovecot from the Blastwave (www.blastwave.org) community supported packaged software site. This was Dovecot 0.99.10.4 and we successfully got it working in our test environment: at first just

Greetings - I'm having a frustrating time with mail clients not picking up Dovecot's QUOTA extension to IMAP. The problem is that the QUOTA keyword isn't advertised in Dovecot's response to a CAPABILITY enquiry until *after* the user has authenticated. Unfortunately I've yet to find a mail client that issues a CAPABILITY request after authenticating. Instead all do so

Greetings - Could someone confirm how to perform various upgrades on a live system running Dovecot please? Scenario 1: Change to dovecot.conf =================================== If I make a change to dovecot.conf am I right in thinking I can simply send a HUP signal to the main dovecot process to get it to re- read the configuration file and act on its revised content? Scenario 2:

Greetings - Now that users are beginning to pile up more on our new Dovecot-based IMAP service I'm seeing a small number of entries like this in the logfiles: Corrupted index cache file /mailstore/index/o/ozw100/.INBOX/ dovecot.index.cache : invalid record size We are using Dovecot 1.0.3 with Maildir folders served over NFS from NetApp filers, but the index files are stored on local

Greetings - I think I've just had one of my fears confirmed: not Dovecot-specific exactly, but it affects how we will use of Prayer (Webmail Software) with Dovecot... Currently our production service uses MBX-format mailboxes with the UW IMAP server; we also use the University of Cambridge "Prayer" software for Webmail. By default Prayer saves its preference settings,

Greetings - I'm having trouble working out where to alter this behaviour (so please forgive me if it turns out to be an Exim thing rather than Dovecot!)... My test service is using Exim as the MTA and Dovecot's "deliver" for the LDA. We are using Maildir mailboxes with filestore quotas. When I send a large test message to myself that cannot be delivered because I

Hi, I experimented with Dovecot a while back and our site is now taking the plunge to switch to it from the UW IMAP server when we rejig the topology of our mail store and IMAP servers. Currently we have a farm of 5 IMAP servers running the UW server. Each has locally attached disk used to store people's mailboxes. Each user is allocated to one of these five servers and can only

Greetings - I'm now in the last couple of weeks before going live with Dovecot (v1.0.3) on our revamped IMAP service. I'd like to double-check about the best mount options to use; could someone advise, please? I have three separate directory trees for the message store, the control files and the index files. These are arranged as follows: Message Store Mounted over NFS from

Greetings - I', continuing to build a test system that, at present, only I have access to. It is running Dovecot 1.0rc24. Here's the output of a "dovecot-n"... # /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf log_path: /logfiles/mail/live/dovecot protocols: imap ssl_cert_file: /usr/local/etc/ssl/certs/imapservice-bundle.crt ssl_key_file: /usr/local/etc/ssl/private/imapservice-private.key

Greetings - I've now got as far as playing with the imaptest10 test utility to see if I can stress-test our development server. imaptest10 is built against dovecot-1.0rc28 It may just be that I'm excessively heavy handed, but when I let imaptest10 rip with the command... ./imaptest10 user=test%03d host=testserver.imap.york.ac.uk clients=50 mbox=./dovecot.mbox msgs=1000 secs=30

Greetings - [SIGH: I hit the "Send" button instead of "Attach". Here's Take 2...] Whilst playing with getting quotas from NFS-mounted filestores I've just discovered a slight problem with src/lib/mountpoint.c I had things working on a Solaris 10 test machine which had the mailstore mounted 'normally' using an entry in /etc/vfstab. However when I changed

Greetings - I'm finalising the layout of our new mailstore ready for a trial service using Dovecot (switching from the UW IMAP server). This is using Maildir mailboxes, changing from our current mix of MBX and traditional Berkeley. One of the things we are often asked for is how someone can grant another access to their mailbox: eg, a Head of Department wants the Departmental

Greetings - Whilst playing with getting quotas from NFS-mounted filestores I've just discovered a slight problem with src/lib/mountpoint.c I had things working on a Solaris 10 test machine which had the mailstore mounted 'normally' using an entry in /etc/vfstab. However when I changed to use the automounter for the mailstore obtaining the quota broke. The problem lies with

Greetings - I was just wondering what the state of play was with regard to reading filestore-based quotas when the mailstore is NFS-mounted? Timo mentioned a little while ago that he'd be including it: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-May/022594.html However it isn't in 1.0.1 and isn't mentioned in the release notes for 1.0.2. Is it going to be a 1.1 feature or

Greetings - Could someone help me understand what the latest situation id with regard to ACLs and sharing mailboxes, please? Currently we are using Dovecot 1.0.x but will be moving to 1.1 when it comes out of Beta (and hopefully I'll get some time before too long to try building a test setup to play with). So I'm happy to talk only about ACLs and sharing mailboxes in 1.1... We

Firstly, I've filed a bug about this transparency issue here ( http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18144 ) as well as another bug completely unrelated to the threads in the vein of gdiplus ( http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18142 ). The bug I'm interested in for the purpose of this thread is the transparency issue displayed when Rainmeter loads a skin. Rainmeter (as well as
