mbox bug in 1.0.0
Hi folks. We're moving users from rc24 and 27 to 1.0.0. On four mailboxes
so far we've seen these errors after the move (quick and dirty anonymizing
follows):

namespaces and creation of folders that contain folders...
Hi Timo and all. imap/cmd-create.c contains the following bit of code:
len = strlen(full_mailbox);
if (len == 0 || full_mailbox[len-1] != ns->sep)
directory = FALSE;
else {
/* name ends with hierarchy separator - client is just
informing us that it wants to create children under this
mailbox. */

mbox inbox default
HI Timo & all.
We're an mbox environment, inboxes in /var/mail/$USER (I'll include dovecot
-n output at the bottom of this mail). mail_location is set accordingly for
deliver.
I'd assumed that if the /var/mail/$USER file doesn't exist, dovecot would
create it, but we've discovered from experience (and I verified it in
mbox-storage.c) that if access(path, R_OK|W_OK)

LSUB/SUBSCRIBE under namespaces
Hi folks.
Here's our situation: Migrating from UW-IMAP. Have lots (as in, tens of
thousands) of clients set up using '~/mail' as the IMAP root, and using
subscriptions.
Dovecot mail_location is using '~' for mbox storage. We've disabled full
filesystem access in Dovecot in order to use ACLs for shared folders. Hence
we have a hidden namespace for backwards

odd behavior with Dovecot LDA
Okay, to convince myself that quota handling was working okay with
Dovecot 1.0-rc27 on Solaris 10, I tested sending a message to an
account that was purposely over-quota. The account in question had
a vacation message set up.
For the first test, there was no $HOME/.imap directory at all.
I received the vacation message, but the message which was supposed
to be delivered locally queued in Postfix

mail looping
We are running Postfix 2.3.3 and Dovecot 1.0-RC27 on a Solaris 10 server.
We use the Dovecot LDA for local delivery. Problems arise with looping mail
whenever a user's .forward contains a reference to themselves. This most
frequently occurs when a user sets up a vacation since it then puts this in
their .forward file:
\username, "|/usr/bin/vacation username"

Problem with rc10
I just upgraded our test server from rc6 to rc10...
ISSUE #1
I noticed that we no longer are getting two "From_" lines. However, the
one that was good (had the original sender e-mail address) is now gone.
The one with "dovecot.deliver" remains.
I attempted to add "-d test" to the mailbox_command line in main.cf as follows:

Dovecot LDA munging INBOX access times?
We are running Dovecot 1.0.0 using mbox format (currently in the midst
of conversion from UW IMAP). We discovered today that the Dovecot LDA
is accessing the user's INBOX at delivery time! Not only do our users
rely on this access time being when they last accessed their e-mail,
we also rely on it to migrate "inactive" users to cheaper disk.
I consider this a major bug for us and

Dovecot LDA issues
We've seen two issues come up with Dovecot LDA, both of which have
caused us problems:
1) If the user's home directory does not exist, or is not owned by them,
deliver fails and causes the mail message to bounce back to the
originator. In our environment this happens when our user is moved
to another server (where we move their files, but for up to 24 hours

Shared folders using mbox format
Hi,
I'd like to create a shared folder to be used with an Outlook client
and a Thunderbird client. We're currently using mboxes.
I've read the documentation here about creating a shared folder:
https://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared
It doesn't make reference to how to do this using mbox format. Is it
possible? Should we convert to Maildir? Perhaps there's a way to

PAM authentication problem: MD5 vs crypt
Here's a strange one. I have Dovecot set up on Solaris 9. The auth portion
of the config is straight out of the box. Using PAM. We have most users in
a dbm file which is just a series of key/value pairs: key is a username,
and value is a string equivalent to a shadow entry. nsswitch.conf entry:
passwd files dbm.
For historical reasons, some users have a classic 13-character Unix crypt

pid stamp on log entries?
Hi folks. Is there a way to modify the log stamp to include pid as well as
time? Preferably for all logging, but at least for imap and pop. I took a
look at the mail-login plugin, but that seems to associate operations with
uid, still no pid.
Am I missing something? Thanks for any info,
