Hi All, I'm new to dovecot (coming from cyrus) and have a bit of a problem setting up postfix + dspam + dovecot. 1. postfix + dovecot: works like a charm. Using "mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver" in postfix main.cf 2. adding dspam to the equation: unable to deliver: net_connect(/usr/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: No such file or directory Using

Hi Timo, a setup like http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Autocreate seems not to work the module is loaded but no subfolder creation at login happens, sorry no log about failures with it simply Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap/lib20_autocreate_plugin.so should i try i.e autocreate = ".Trash/" or is there more info around -- Best Regards MfG Robert Schetterer

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"]

My global sieve rule is not working and do not compile. But per-user sieve is working. Here is my dovecot -n: log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log protocols: imap pop3 ssl: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_uid: 501 mail_gid:

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:

Hi, My server uses a system comprised of postfix, dovecot and dspam to filter and deliver mail. Postfix used the following flags in calling spamc and dovecot: flags=DRhu user=dovecot:secmail argv=/usr/bin/spamc -u ${recipient} -e /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d ${recipient} after an upgrade from Debian lenny to squeeze we were able to get everything working except spam filtering. Spamassassin is

Hello, We have seen a few of these panics in 1.1.6. It seems to happen when pine is being used and a POP3 check occurs at the same time (but not always), but I'm not positive this is always the case: --- Nov 22 11:10:32 lexiconn2 dovecot: Panic: POP3(techjm): file istream.c: line 76 (i_stream_read): assertion failed: (_stream-> skip != _stream->pos) Nov 22 11:10:32 lexiconn2

I dont see something special in the logs why this happens --

Hi, We have our user homedirs on nfs so I enabled nfs parameters in dovecot.conf. Everything works fine but when I want to delete a homedir of a user I can't delete it because I can't remove the .nfs files in the Maildir. I don't want to stop dovecot, remove the homedir and start dovecot. Is there another way to accomplish this. Thanks, Martijn # 1.2.12:

i'm facing a pretty hard to debug problem when trying to use dovecot LDA (deliver) from postfix. After having all configured, mail deliver fails. This is from my maillog: Feb 12 21:27:54 correio postfix/pipe[12484]: 930F9F6105: to=<solutti at domain.com.br>, relay=dovecot, delay=0.21, delays=0.03/0.01/0/0.18, dsn=4.3.0, status=SOFTBOUNCE (Command died with signal 11:

Hi, there! Well, I am new to dovecot, so please be patient with me: I have a virtual server and want to setup simple mail delivery. postfix, saslauthd and dovecot basically work fine. The only open issue is, that (I guess) dovecot doesn't remove the mail when it's retrieved via pop3 from the server. It keeps sending me the same emails again and again. (The mail client (Thunderbird) is

Hi All, I've built the dovecot-antispam-plugin from hg.dovecot.org and installed it. I've turned on debugging with "mail_debug = yes" in dovecot.conf and restarted dovecot. However, the antispam plugin module gets loaded by dovecot, but then nothing, i.e. when moving mail from Inbox to Spam and vice versa, I see nothing. How do I get debug messages from the

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

I have been running Dovecot 1.2.5 since Sept 14.

Hello Dovecot List, I am a bit of a sysadmin novice and this is my first time emailing, so please let me know if I have left some critical information out. I am supporting a small office network supported primarily by linux servers. All of my users are using dovecot as a pop3 daemon on a centOS 5 box, no IMAP users. Seven users are running outlook 2003 on windows XP, two users are running

Hi, I'm configuring postfix with dovecot and roundcube. I'm using flat files as passwdb userdb.

Hello, I am experiencing IMAP authentication delays when a client first authenticates, or after the last auth timeout. There are only a handful of clients - less than 5 - using the server. I am using a mysql database and I have verified the PAM auth is commented out. Other than that I can't figure out what might be causing the slow authentication. The first time a client authenticates
