Hi, are there any known issues with symlinked-shared-mailboxes and kmail? I use virtual users (LDAP), so there are no unix-permissions related problems here: all mailboxes are owned by the local user vmail. Each user maildir has some symlinks to shared mailboxes. This works fine if I use squirrelmail as a MUA. kmail instead seems to have some problems: if I save a mail into the

Has anyone looked into providing support in dovecot for Kmail folders? I would like to make my Kmail folders (on my main desktop system) available to my other systems (including over a VPN when I am travelling). Kmail is my main mail program and I have a lot of mail in a lot of folders, so I don't want to set up a separate IMAP service and move all the mail and folders. Kmail's use

Any hope of KMail (and Kontact) coming to CentOS-7? What exactly is the problem? KMail seems to work on other Linux OS's. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

Is anyone running docecot on a home LAN. to give an IMAP feed to other machines on the LAN? I am running dovecot on my desktop, alfred. I want to collect email on my laptop, william, using KMail. As far as I can tell, dovecot is running perfectly. I can bring email from /var/spool/mail/tim on alfred to the same directory on william by running "fetchmail alfred" on william. I can then

Hi I have just upgraded a mail server from dovecot-0.99 to stable (dovecot-1.0.59). My normal desktop email client, kmail is working fine, but outlook keeps producing PLAIN authentication errors, and refusing to authenticate. From dovecot.log, I can see dovecot: Mar 13 10:57:30 Error: auth(default): sql(<xxxxxxxMy Detailsxxxxxxxxxxx>): Password query must return a field named

I'm running a dovecot/IMAP server under CentOS-5.3 on my desktop, reading the mail with KMail on my laptop. I have what seems a venerable and well-documented problem/bug; when I click on "Check Mail" I get an error message "Error while getting folder information" ... Actually, this doesn't appear to have the slightest effect on kmail, which works perfectly if one just

I finally decided to move from CentOS 6 to CentOS 7, but was surprised to see that kmail is no longer included: Red Hat deliberately decided to omit it. How can I ask that kmail be added to EPEL? The information on EPEL's site basically says to submit it myself, but that's above my capabilities. -- Yves Bellefeuille <yan at storm.ca>

I just installed Dovecot and squirrelmail to read my email when I'm away from home. I subscribed to all the folders in my mail directory but I can't actually see any email. Is this a dovecot issue or a squirrelmail issue? I'm running KMail from KDE 3.1.2 and use Debian (Testing) on a Digital Alpha and installed both squirrelmail and dovecot using apt-get. I had to set

I am using exim via dovecot_deliver to store messages in Maildir in my $HOME. I am using kmail to retrieve stuff. Unfortunately, something in my data crashes dovecot. I was using 1.0.rc14 from opensuse, but downloaded and installed 1.0.8 from the site. Here is the crash: Dec 5 18:05:09 h743107 dovecot: IMAP(kris): file mail-index-transaction.c: line 629 (mail_index_update_flags_range):

Hey everyone - is anyone else having problems with Dovecot and KMail? I'm having trouble seeing my INBOX using KMail (Maildir format on the server), though all subfolders show up as normal. I suspect the problem is with KMail as all the other mail clients I've tested seem to have no such problems, they see INBOX *and* subfolders just fine, just wanted to see if anyone could confirm this

Hi, I have dovecot with Maildir installed and running. No problems. I use kmail on both desktop and laptop with cachedimap configuration. kmail is configured to look for new mail every two minutes. Now my question: When both maschines are running and kmail is started then two clients access the same Maildir on the server at the same time. Is this possible or can this corrupt the Maildir

Hi, After setting up a maildir tree with :LAYOUT=fs and accessing it with KMail and Thunderbird, various mail client-specific problems appeared, but, as I didn't try with maildir++, I would like to confirm here: does that matter for an IMAP client much if I store mail on server as ":LAYOUT=fs" or maildir++? Can it see differences? I would like to think, that IMAP protocol

Well, I updated my system late last week, and just thought to look: yes, I'm on t-bird 10.0.1, and I pull up the search messages window, and click on the dropdown... and there is NO OPTION to search the content of the messages. Maybe kmail, or maybe mutt.... mark

I wasn't able to get DIGEST-MD5 authentication working with passwords stored as plaintext until I tweaked password_generate() to make it not use the domain portion of user at domain.com as the realm. Both evolution and kmail send the email address as the username with no realm; when dovecot tries to convert the username to user + realm, the hash is different and so DIGEST-MD5

Hello, For some reason KMail is all but coming to a stand still when I open messages with any kind of signature. So I goto the configuration page of KMail Security Crypo Back ends and I see nothing is checked off. So I hit rescan and get the error that is listed in the attachment. Anyone else having this issue? -- Regards Robert Smile... it increases your face value! Linux User

Hi all, When I send a message to trash, without previously reading it (just with the subject is enough to say I do not want to read it), it remains as "unread". Then, clients (I am using Kmail) report there are unread message, when all of them are in Trash. The question, then is: Is there any way to automatically mark a message as read, when that message is moved to Trash? Thank you!

For some time now I have been trying to get IMAP resources working on KMail. I have followed the docs from kde, but they tell how to configure cyrus IMAP, so I've had to learn as I went along. After a lot of help from the postfix list I now have a working sasl. The ability of the user 'groupware' to log in with PLAIN has been checked in a telnet session. Everything in KMail has

I'm running dovecot on my desktop with kmail as IMAP client on my laptop. When I start kmail on the laptop it sometimes takes several minutes to "calm down". The number of messages listed in the IMAP inbox increases greatly - maybe from 2500 to 3000 - and then slowly decreases. There are sometimes a large number of duplicate messages, which kmail allows one to delete. I don't
