Hi, I just installed dovecot 1.1.11 and am having some issues. Mail appears to be delivered to the Maildirs just fine, but when a client (Thunderbird) tries to retrieve them I get this: dovecot: IMAP(info at aedisit.com): maildir_file_do(/var/mail/ > aedisit.com/info/cur/1251566335.V14I27a91M380600.kim): Filename keeps > changing After turning on mail debug mode, I get this: Aug 29

I have been running Dovecot 1.2.5 since Sept 14. Beginning at about 03:28 on Sept 21 for no apparent (to me) reason and continuing through the present, I am seeing log messages like the following and am experiencing delays logging in. Sep 22 19:07:15 sbh16 dovecot: dovecot: Temporary failure in creating login processes, slowing down for now Sep 22 19:07:15 sbh16 dovecot: pop3-login: Fatal:

Help!! I have been trying to get Dovecot configured to allow plaintext auth with no success. After some testing with the mail system I discovered the >dovecot -a commant to dump the config file values from the program. Gee, changing the value of disable_plaintext_auth had no effect on what the program reported this value to be! To eliminate possible errors caused by other config file

Hello I got this error yesterday dovecot: Feb 11 16:07:27 Error: IMAP(dumontj): FETCH for mailbox Sent UID 7139 got too little data: 11112 vs 11160 dovecot: Feb 11 16:07:27 Error: IMAP(dumontj): Corrupted index cache file /user/dumontj/.imap/Sent/dovecot.index.cache: Broken virtual size for mail UID 7139 Does remove the cache will cure the problem ? Thanks

Dear list, I am running dovecot with LDAP. Each account has email in form abc at example.com, and messages are stored at /var/vmail/abc/Maildir. This is an external mail server, and I would like to use a cron job to fetch all messages to an internal server which has slow internet connection. It seems getmail supports multidrop retriever which might fit the bill. However I could not figure out how

hi All, I have a srange problem. Before dovecot there was a courier imap and it worked just fine. The client(s) are the same then before, so I think, this is an server side problem. I have a user with Outlook and he uses pop3 and leaves messages on server. Sometimes the messages get downloaded again, when he starts the outlook. Not all, but 7-9 hours back. uidl format is like it's

Hello, I'm having problems with expire-tool in Dovecot 1.2.6 not finding the mailboxes. I had mail_location = mbox:/var/spool/dovecotmail/%d/%n/mails:INDEX=/var/spool/dovecotmail/%d/%n/indexes in dovecot.conf, but that doesn't work with expire-tool. So I commented that out from dovecot.conf, all the data is in a database anyway. A userdb lookup returns the following for userid at

I have been trying to get the virtual domain and mailboxes working on an newly built Ubuntu 10.04 server and am stuck on this error. System is using a postgres database and PostfixAdmin.

Hello all, I am struggeling to get my Dovecot SASL to work within postfix. I have used the configuration example listed on the main-site of dovecot and it basically isn't giving me any success at all. I am probably missing something easy, but after spending a few days testing and walking through everything I could think about I thought figured it was better to ask :) Hope someone can point me

Hi all, after inserting another sieve-rule, I get the following backtrace on deliver. The mail gets delivered into the Mailbox, but as deliver does not exit with 0, postfix bounces the mail. The additional rule is the same as all others in my .dovecot-sieve: > require ["fileinto", "include"]; > > if header :contains ["From"]

Hi, i've just upgraded to dovecot-1.2.8 (from 1.2.4) and do now get the following errors when deliver gets hands on mails with some attachments. # tail -n 1 /var/log/messages Dec 14 19:00:36 mail3 dovecot: deliver(user): Panic: file istream.c: line 96 (i_stream_read): assertion failed: (stream->eof) The MTA is postfix running inside a FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE jail.

Hi, I'm fighting all weekend on with auth and pam to authenticate local system users. testuser is such local user and is in passwd and shadow. I want to have local system users (testuser is one of them) and virtual users. The virtual part works fine but I cannot get the local user to connect. Still pam fails finding the user. The suggested password mismatch at the end is, in my eyes,

Hi All, Relatively new to Dovecot - converting from courier-imap. So far, I've got it working with virtual users (postfixadmin tables), and it seems to be working. I'm trying to get sieve working. It's not, so I tried turning up the logging, and putting it into a separate log file to get it out of the syslog for now. I can get the main dovecot to log, but I cannot get any log

If I leave the "listen" value as the default in /etc/dovecot.conf I'll get a message similar to the following on each port that it tries to open during startup: # dovecot -F Fatal: listen(::, 143) failed: Address already in use If I set either: listen = * or listen = [::] then it will start up fine. Perhaps it is as though the code tries to open the port twice for both

I had recently upgraded from Dovecot 1.0.14 to 1.1.0, and then to 1.1.1. Ever since the upgrade to 1.1.0, I noticed that "plus addressing" has failed. In case I'm using a foreign phrase, this is the concept of sending an e-mail to "user+spam at domain.com", and having dovecot (dovecot LDA, specifically), deliver this to the "spam" submailbox to

Hello, I'm trying to configure the dovecot-antispam plugin. Now I've run into a problem: whenever I try to move/copy a message in/from the spam mailbox, Thunderbird (and also Sylpheed, haven't tried anything else) says: The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: Failed to read mail beginning. and in the logs I get: dovecot: Aug 07 10:41:23 Error:
