Hello, I'm new on this mailing list. I run a Dovecot imaps server since several month on a Debian server.

I have begun havening a problem when sending or when Thunderbird tries to write copy to .Draft. Usually only happens when the message is longer. While in the Thunderbird editor will say "Copying message to Draft folder". It will try indefinitely. The copy is successful but it looks like it is believed to have failed so its retried.

Hi! I've got dovecot 1.0.rc15. I want dovecot to listen only on localhost for imap, and on any interfaces for imaps. So I put the following into my config: protocol imap { listen = 127.0.0.1:143 ssl_listen = *:10993 .. } dovecot -n correctly reports: listen: 127.0.0.1:143 ssl_listen: *:10993 But I can still do a 'telnet MY_HOST 143' from the outside, and 'netstat -pltn |

Greetings, I recently upgraded our server from Dovecot 1.0.14 to 1.1.1.

Hi, I have installed dovecot v1.1.beta2 with the sieve plugin v.1.1.2.

Hi, we are facing some weird performance issues after we upgraded on of our mail servers to a new Opteron 64bit machine. The problem we are facing is that mail retrieval from external clients is incredibly slow. Fetching a mail with say a size of 3MB takes 7 minutes vs. sending exactly the same mail back to our postmaster account is only a question of seconds. I've verified this with

Hi I have a virtual users system using postfix / mysql / dovecot. Everything is working like a charm except for the quota display on webmail systems.

Recently I have upgraded my primary workstation to a Mac Pro - and that of course has
