dovecot 1.0.15 upgrading to dovecot 1.1.x or 1.2.x, and POP3 UIDL issue
Hi,
We're upgrading a cluster of servers from v1.0.15 to
v1.1.x or v1.2.x. It appears that the UIDL generation mechanism
has changed, and thus we'll be getting POP3 dups with users
that leave mail on server (which is a nasty practice, I know).
From checking the sources, and performing a number of controlled
tests in various scenarios, here is the outcome:
upgrade from 1.0.15 to

migrating POP3 from UW IMAP: X-UIDL and X-UID
With a INBOX mbox created by UW IMAP
the messages in INBOX mbox contains the X-UIDL field
When I use Dovecot POP3 with
pop3_uidl_format = %08Xv%08Xu
on the first run, X-UID is inserted, but all messages are downloaded again.
What am I missing, I don't want the clients to download the
read messages again.
Thanks

Problems with POP3 UIDL when migrating from MBOX to Maildir
Hello,
I am in the process of migrating a hosting setup from UW-IMAP to
Dovecot. The protocols available to mail clients are IMAP and POP3
both before and after migration. I also wanted to change the mail
storage format from MBOX to Maildir. However, at this point I hit a
major snag with Dovecot and POP3 UIDL (unique identification listing
for POP3 mailboxes).

Small change to make dovecot pop3 uw-imap migration friendly
Hi,
today I've finished migration from uw-imap daemons to shiny and fast
dovecot. With thanks of dovecot my mail server load average drops by factor
of ten even with ancient unix mailboxes. ;-)
So, the only thing I've discovered is what POP3 uidls are different than
ones used in the uw-imap. Luckily, the difference are only in the format
string used in uidl response. So, I've

dovecot-example.conf error with POP3 UIDL format?
I just installed dovecot 1.0alpha4 on a very busy RHEL4 server with
about 1300 users. So far so good, except for the dreaded duplicate
emails in outlook for users who use POP3 and have "leave message on
server" selected. After searching the archives I found that this is
usually related to the UIDL format. The example in the .conf file is this:

POP3 extension to accept UIDL ranges?
Greetings,
is anybody aware of an extension to POP3 that supports UIDL ranges?
It would be very useful for keep-messages-on-server setups (yes, I know,
IMAP4 domain) to be able to do UIDL 21-42 to obtain just these 22 UIDs
(this would always have to be a multi-line reply, just like UIDL without
argument).
If such a thing does not exist yet, perhaps a keyword such as
"[X]UIDLRANGES" in

Dovecots pop3-UIDL command impl. not RFC compliant ?
Hi !
POP3-RFC (1939) speaks about UIDL command:
The unique-id of a message is an arbitrary server-determined
string, consisting of one to 70 characters in the range 0x21
to 0x7E, which uniquely identifies a message within a maildrop and which
persists across sessions.
When I issue an UIDL command (dovecot 0.99.10.9)
I get replies like
1 1093990148.1
2 1093990148.2
3 1093990148.3

POP3 UIDL
I have installed rc22 and tried it with my mbox-based mail - fine.
Then I converted that mbox to Maildir to see if new feature (saving
state without QUIT) works -
first run - I get time out. Second run - I get rest of the Maildir
scanned and get into mailbox. Fine.

Fatal: Can't finish POP3 UIDL command
I have been setting up a new mail server and copied our client's old mail to
it. The old server has Courier (under Plesk), we're using Dovecot on the new
server.
Most accounts seem to work fine (under IMAP or POP3), but for a few we're
getting the following in the /var/log/mail.err.
Error: Message ordering changed unexpectedly (msg #1: storage seq 140 -> 1)

courier-dovecot-migrate.pl maintaining order of pop3 uidl's
Hi there,
I've just been experimenting with the latest courier-dovecot-migrate.pl
script and I notice that it favours keeping pop3 UIDL ordering rather
than IMAP UID preservation. There is this comment (line 312):
# POP3 clients may want to get POP3 UIDLs in the same order always.
# Preserve the order even if it causes IMAP UIDs to change.
Does anyone have details as to which

sendmail + dovecot + vpopmail + virtual users, problem with pop3 uidl
Hi,
I just migrated a server running qmail+vpopmail+maildir to
sendmail+dovecot+maildir+vpopmail
The migrating is working great thanks to the help from the list and the
wiki.
I'm now running the infamous problem about duplicating emails, because
of pop3 UIDL mismatch.
My question is: anyone knows that the pop3_uidl_format string for
a vpopmail server?

POP3 UIDLs with virtual INBOX and migration from maildir->mdbox
Hi,
Considering the scenario, where you have some old account with a
different POP3 UIDL format and you migrate them to dovecot.
So these old UIDLs would be saved to dovecot-uidlist.
At some later time you want to introduce a virtual POP3 INBOX like
described on:
http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual
So you decide to make the new UIDL format "%f" - to make them unique

Online filesystem check
Hi all,
a while ago one of my work colleagues attended a seminar with Ted Tso, and
at the time Ted was talking about a way to perform online ext3 filesystem
checks. I can't find any information on it by googling, is it implemented in
current versions of the filesystem utilities? Either way, does anyone know
where I can find more information on it?

Dovecot returns the same UIDL for another message
Hello,
I have a serious problem with dovecot and mbox format.
dovecot returns the same UIDL for new messages and as result some MUAs don't
retrieve new mail.
UIDs returned by UIDL command look like 000000*1c*49006cec
And there is a moment when dovecot stops incrementing marked digits.
In other words when new message arrive to mbox, UIDL command returns used UID.
I'll show with example:

dovecot tpop3d UIDL mbox
Hello All!
I am new to this list so I hope I'm not in the wrong list with my question.
First, I have to say that dovecot is (in my opinion) one of the best POP3/IMAP
servers arround. I especialy like its' simplicity (configuration) and
powerfullness (speed, auth mechs).
In my production environment I would like to cange from tpop3d to dovecot, but I
have only one little problem :).

X-UIDL Ignored?
Hello!
I am trying to migrate from Teapop to Dovecot.
I'm using Dovecot 1.1.14.
I need to make use of the X-UIDL header so clients don't download
messages they've already received.
I have the X-UIDL head in the message.
I have pop3_reuse_xuidl(pop3): yes
My problem is the X-UIDL in the message is being ignored and Dovecot is
still generating it's own.
The INBOX is an mbx
