We're considering a move from Courier to Dovecot.? So far, looks like it's not too bad, but the most challenging obstacle is what to do about our local delivery.? Factors: 1. we use a lot of maildrop "features" that are impossible in sieve without piping to an external program (would rather not re-write our working maildrop scripts in another language) 2. would love to try

Good Day All! I am attempting to configure deliver as our LDA. I am also configuring the server to use Postfix instead of Sendmail. I have followed the all the documentation and examples I could find. Below are my Dovecot and Postfix configs. Can someone please smack me upside the head and tell me why I am getting "user unknown" errors? If i don't use deliver as the LDA, all

Hello, I currently use procmail without the deliver LDA but would like to switch to using deliver. I also would like to get away from procmail for various reasons. Otherwise I could use the procmail-patch from http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2006-July/014656.html AFAICS. I don't want to use sieve because it's too limited and can't see a similar patch like the one for

I'm using maildrop for delivery, because I want to filter through spamassassin before delivery. Maildrop makes that trivial. It seems deliver can pipe (one way) to a command, but what is needed is to pipe: deliver -> spamd -> deliver which is what the maildrop xfilter does.

Hi Timo & Co, Is there any time frame for updating the deliver LDA's sieve plugin code to that from Cyrus IMAPd v2.3.x? I ask as I'm looking for the functionality of the sieve-body extension, as described here: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sieve-body-06.txt This requirement has come up as we're upgrading from a Courier-IMAP/maildrop configuration that has

I need some advice about replacing maildrop with the Dovecot LDA. I need to replicate a setup that uses postfix+maildrop+spamassassin. We'll be using Dovecot 1rc13. In the current setup, maildrop reads a file called .mailfilter in each user's folder, then call spamassassin according to the user's preferences. The file is simple, and looks like this -- if ( $SIZE > 20971520 ) {

I found a post in this list [0], which says sieve scripts can be used to deliver mail as read. However, can it be done somehow conditionally, I mean, with a direct or indirect switch for deliver? For a nonexistent example, it would be simply < | deliver -m path/to/maildir -r > or maybe an environment variable could be exported to deliver sieve and checked there? (Still not sure if sieve

I'm using maildrop to filter mail like: xfilter "/usr/bin/spamc" xfilter "/usr/bin/bogofilter -ep" I want to change to deliver (so I can use sieve) but can deliver do this?

Hello, I'm having some problems getting LDA to work without userdb lookups and have a few related questions. This system has all users in MySQL, each user with unique UID/GID, no local users at all.? Installation is from apt-get. 1) If LDA is invoked without lookups, is it correct to assume that the "service auth" and "service auth-worker" can be completely removed

Before switching to dovecot deliver for all local deliveries, I'm calling deliver from maildrop (yes, don't laugh). Snippet from my global /etc/maildroprc: # Store maillist & junk messages directly /^Precedence: ?list/ if ( $MATCH ) { exception { log "Bulk message: $MATCH" #to "$DEFAULT" to "|$DELIVER" } } I replaced to

Hi, recently I started using maildrop as a MDA doing lightweight filtering in a Postfix/Dovecot mail server combo. Only thing missing was the fact that maildrop couldn't perform user lookups against a user database that was already being served by Dovecot (for smtp auth in Postfix and for imap access obviously) in order to easily determinate proper mailbox location and home directory of

Hi! I tried to compile deliver from CVS (as described in the wiki), but unfortunately make stopped with the following error: In file included from sieve_interface.h:37, from script.h:31, from addr.y:34: sieve_err.h:7:24: et/com_err.h: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [addr.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory

Hi I have been able to setup postfix and dovecot using postgres as the backend store with virtual user maps on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Server. I have been following instructions from here: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/DovecotPostgresql I haven't setup postfix to use saslauthd and PAM, instead I am using dovecot for SASL authentication. Rest of the table structures and query files are the same as

Hi, I?m using a multi-storage architecture in my email environment and maildrop as deliver command at mta. But to this deliver the mx servers mount nfs partitions - we need to use maildrop because many patches we inserted. How can I insert a piece of code at maildrop allowing it to update the dovecot indexes (which lib and/or function from dovecot I need to use ?) Best Regards, Fernando

I'm currently using maildrop to do delivery, because I like to use it's xfilter to pipe through spamc. I don't see a similar option for dovecot's deliver. Is there something? It would be nice to use deliver, since I use dovecot for reading mail.

Hi all, I have the following situation: On a qmail toaster I am running (with dovecot 1.2.12 as the IMAP server), spam mail gets automatically put into a 'this might be spam' folder (per user). Now, every user has the opportunity to move that mail into either a 'learn as spam' or a 'this was ham' folder and the mail items will be treated accordingly. As a cronjob, I run

Hi there, I'm using Dovecot 2.0.9-1 under Arch Linux. Currently, I have Maildir configured, and I move all my emails into dovecot by using this sequence: 1) cron starts fetchmail periodically under user manfred to collect my mails from various email accounts. 2) In ~/.fetchmailrc I have configured /usr/bin/maildrop as MDA. 3) In ~/.mailfilter (used by maildrop) I have extensive filtering in

Hello, I just read your message about sieve and body-extension in Dovecot. Do you have news on that topic? I just have to filter mails containing a particular text fragment, and I cannot do without sieve body, I think.. Thank you for any clue you'd be able to give me ! Regards, Bruno --- Hi Timo & Co, Is there any time frame for updating the deliver LDA's sieve plugin code to

Can somebody provide maildrop syntax for using deliver-lda as final delivery program during sorting mail in user mailfilter? i mean replacement for "to" statement if ( /^(To|Cc):.*dovecot at dovecot.org/:h ) { to $MAIL/.dovecot/ }
