Hi, I am relatively new to linux, and have set up my first lamp server around a month ago. The server is housed in a data centre a few miles from my house, and is working as a web server (with apache, tomcat, mysql) just fine. I have now been trying for a week to get Postfix and Dovecot working with postfixadmin and mysql. (below I have replaced my test domain name with [***domain_name***]) The

I'm calling 'deliver' from Postfix and in some cases from Procmail. I set this system up more than six months ago and it's been working flawlessly until yesterday (16:52:19 local time) when it, without any apparent reason, just stopped delivering mails! Lots of checking and googling (I've forgot how exacly I setup the system :), I made 'deliver' SUID and it worked

Hi All, I've recently recompiled Postifx & Dovecot and I'm hitting an error I can't seem to chase down. Running dovecot version 1.0.3 (dovecot -n is below) Here's the error in my error log: Sep 10 12:58:22 lishost postfix/smtpd[13726]: xsasl_dovecot_server_create: SASL service=smtp, realm=example.com Sep 10 12:58:22 lishost postfix/smtpd[13726]: xsasl_dovecot_server_connect:

Okay .. have dovecot set up with following settings : userdb static { args = uid=97 gid=97 home=/export/dovecot/mail/%d/%u mail=mbox:/export/dovecot/mbox/%d/%u/ } passdb passwd-file { # Path for passwd-file args = /etc/dovecot-passdb } Passdb works I think in the sense that I can log into dovecot using a regular mail client. The real issue is when I try to deliver

Hello everybody, I have a server with CentOS 6.5 (kernel version 2.6.32-431.5.1.el6.x86_64) and Samba version 4.2.0pre1-GIT-4daf7d4. I am using this server as a PDC and so far everything is working quite alright. However, I have a problem with permissions of files I want to share. Mostly it is working well. Samba respects group memberships, including supplementary groups, ownership, etc. The

Hi OpenSSH developers, I'm using OpenSSH on a daily basis and I'm very pleased with the work you've done.

Hi, I'm getting errors with my IMAP setup. Basically, everything seems to work. Mail is delivered nicely from Postfix to Dovecot via LMTP. Dovecot does the authentication to LDAP (also for Postfix). Users are able to send mail via authenticated submission (Postfix) and login into IMAP and POP. However, IMAP connections are dropped frequently with an "ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP

Hello all, I'm trying to get the expire plugin working, but still having issues even with 1.1RC5.

Hi all Trying to setup dovecot with mysql and postfix, I have configured it as given below. thecot user has the dovecot group as primary, and is also a member of mail and dovecot-users. Still, it can't setgid to dovecot-users. I tried changing the shell for the dovecot user to something useful and chmod'ing a file to dovecot-users, and it work well. Still, no mail comes through

Hello, I'm trying to get deliver LDA working with postfix in a virtual domain configuration. I'm using dovecot v1.0.rc10. My setup is pretty much exactly as in the wiki (only the path to deliver and auth-master socket are different). I'm having a little problem with permissions and this occurred which I think is undesirable: syslog: Feb 8 13:09:35

version: rsync v2.6.1 (+ a minor, unrelated patch). I'm rsyncing files (not as root) and am happy (indeed, for what I want, delighted) that the files at the target side end up owned by the account doing the rsync. However, I've found that if I have a setuid/setgid file on the source side, the target file ends up setuid/setgid too (but under a different id!). This happens whether

Hello all, I have a little problem. I'm trying to set up Dovecot deliver (1.0 beta 3) as the LDA for Exim4 on Ubuntu 6.06 with MBOX, and I'm running into permissions problems. Exim typically wants to run pipes as the user to whom the mail is being delivered (as per the "check_local_user"). deliver needs access to the auth socket and needs to be able to create files in /var/mail.

Sorry if this is a nubbie question, but I?m getting: lda(jlbrown at bordo.com.au)<4444><QFg5KRHVBBxcEQAAYBwt+A>: Fatal: setgid(102 from userdb lookup) failed with euid=501(jlbrown), gid=20(staff), egid=20(staff): Operation not permitted (This binary should probably be called with process group set to 102 instead of 20(staff)) How can I fix this? (macOS Mojave, Dovecot 2.3.4)

thanks for suggestion, in other words you use only ACLs for users denying all for groups, unfortunately we had many group such as domain users, secretary, finance, etc belonging to users for which we need to apply at least 770 in order to gain a simplified permission management using groups the actual dirty workaround I applied was to track new files/dir by tailing with follow ( tail -f ) a

Hello ALL, I got errors on a new installation, maybe I forgot something. The system is Solaris, Dovecot 1.2.10, Postfix 2.7.0, MySQL 5.1.25. Can send mail with dovecot imap, but can`t retrieve the messages. Strange, I can save and retrieve draft messages ok, files are always with postfix:postfix ownership. Sorry if this is newbie question, but can`t find a solution. Syslog info: Apr 19
