similar to: Postfix & Dovecot LDA

Just a comment about the documentation for postfix integration when using receipient delimiter and delivery of user+foo at domain.ext to user at domain: http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix I had some issues to get this working, so thought I'd share my experience. Dovecot version 1.2.rc3. Postfix version postfix-2.7-20090511. I have no local (unix) mailboxes, everything is delivered to

Hi, before I start to write a lengthy email about something that isn't really possible anyway: can I make Postfix use Dovecot's LDA and start it with different user IDs? My scenario: Dovecot authenticates users for Postfix and itself using Postgresql. Mails for two domains should be stored under /srv/<domain>/<user> (which is the location returned by my user_sql query and

Hi list, I have 7 virtual users in a sql database. I don't want any systemusers or local delivery using postfix. On the postfix side everything works fine as long as I use the 'local' delivery agent. But since I want to use dovecot's sieve functionality I set local_transport to dovecot. From now on Postfix seems to ignore local_* settings like local_recipient_maps. Here is my

I do not know if this is a help request to solve a problem but to understand what is going on. I am going to start with the problem description as I see it and we will go from there. I have postfix setup to use dovecot for tls/sasl in addition to its normal imap/pop3 functions. Postfix is also setup to do virtual domains, getting its information from the files valias, vmaps, and vhosts which are

Dear all i've got many SMTP front-end that filter the mail and do some custom stuff... then when i've decided the final destination i'd like to call /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda to deliver the mail.

Guys , 1. What is the benefit of using Dovecot' LDA as compared to postfix's LDA? Will there be better performance? And along the same vein, 2. What is the benefit of using Dovecot's SASL as compared to Cyrus SASL? Is there better performance? 3. Quota Management ( Creating, enforcing, notifying ) - is it done thru dovecot or postfix or are both needed? Regards, mgomez

I saw another thread about this topic, but I did not understand the solution. . . I recently discovered my bounced messages were not getting delivered. Obviously since I was not getting any messages, I thought everything was fine. Anyway, my maillog has entries similar to below for bounced messages: Mar 29 10:48:09 firewall postfix/pipe[9089]: 19565807: to=<myuser at my.domain>,

Hi, I'm setting up dovecot pop3 deamon for a small set of mailbox. I want to be able to set a small set of mailbox simply, so I've used "passdb passwd-file" + virtual mailboxes with "userdb static". My problem is that it seems that postfix accept and create mailbox for every address I post. It is configured to use local delivery through dovecot's deliver. How

Hi, I've been trying to follow the documentation that I am finding, but am running into trouble getting things set up correctly for postfix + virtual domains (using ldap) with dovecot LDA.

Hello everyone. I'm running dovecot (1.2.9) with postfix (2.7.0) on an ubuntu 10.04.1. I'm hosting mail for several domains and using the dovecot local delivery agent.

However, when looking at the
