I apologise, because I'm sure this subject has been done to death, but I want to migrate from Courier to Dovecot. I think my main question is whether there's any reason I shouldn't just rsync the maildirs across from the old mail server to the new one? There aren't many clients using this server, so I don't care if clients have to redownload all their messages (in fact, I

I tried to disable courier-pop3 today in favour of dovecot pop3. Prior to that I ran: find /home -maxdepth 1 -type d | xargs --replace /usr/local/scripts/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl --overwrite --recursive --convert {} ( /home is hashed two levels deep: /home/a/a/aanton/Maildir/ ) After that, I got lots of errors like: Aug 9 13:02:40 postamt dovecot: IMAP(azenclu): Maildir

My recent migration from Courier-IMAP to Dovecot has been marred by these errors: Oct 24 12:12:40 server dovecot: IMAP(juha): Fixed index file ~user/Maildir/.Geekzone/dovecot.index: first_recent_uid_lowwater 431 -> 430 Oct 24 12:12:40 server dovecot: IMAP(juha): Corrupted index file ~user/Maildir/.Geekzone/dovecot.index: Duplicate header extension keywords Oct 24 12:12:40 server dovecot: child

Hi, i've set up a little mailserver for my homeoffice, and after some problems everything works fine for me, I've some virtual users which get their mail delivered via getmail, and I can access my mails from my windows mailclient. The only issue I'm still facing is, that I don't like to run getmail as a cronjob that connects to my online mailboxes every minute or so,

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

Hi all. I am currently gathering information about migration of Maildir/ structures from Courier to Dovecot. What do you think about http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier ? For each courier Maildir account I want to use http://www.dovecot.org/tools/courier-dovecot-migrate.pl to produce dovecot-uidlist file mv courierimapsubscribed subscriptions sed sed -i 's/INBOX\.//' subscriptions

All, This is slightly OT, but I figure a bunch of folks running IMAP servers should have some strong opinions on the topic. While working on a migration to Dovecot, I had the opportunity to move one account to a server running same. This is an in-house billing department box that 3-4 people share. In theory, this should work well - all the billing folks see the same email, save sent mail

For testing purposes, on a small set of users, we've run the courier-dovecot-migrate.pl script. We are converting from Courier 0.43 to Dovecot 1.2.9. For the most part, things seem to be ok. However, an iPhone IMAP client user is reporting a problem where some of her messages don't show up. Even stranger is the fact that these same messages do appear when using Outlook 2k7 for

Hello - I've combed the wiki and archives a bit and can't seem to find what I am lookng for. It seems that BlackBerry Internet server has an issue with IMAP accounts along with IDLE and concurrent connections. Please see the following link (sorry it's fairly long):

Greetings all... Can we delete maildir files directly from the file system? Basically, we use dovecot to train spam, and we want to delete messages that are older than 30 days, using a simple "find /maildirs -cname +30 -name *imap-server* -exec rm {} \;" I have seen a post a while ago saying that dovecot can rebuild the indexes, but I don't remember if it's when the index is

HI I don't know if this is a dovecot issue or a client one. But as Dovecot is the most recent change, I'll start here. I have a server that's been running Courier for about 6 years and in all that time I think I've only ever had 1 issues where an entire mail box was repopped by a webmail client. However, since moving to a new server and dovecot 4 weeks ago, I've now had the

Hello, I am trying to migrate users form courier to dovecot 1.2.6. The main configuration parameters are as follows : ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # 1.2.6: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf Warning: fd limit 1024 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load (more than 2304). Either grow the limit or change

Hi Dovecot People, i have switched my system from courier-imap to dovecot and iam quite happy with it, the performance is well and i had nearly no problems. One little feature iam missing is in Courier i had a folder called "Outbox" there i could paste mails which i want to sent out. In some networks its not always available to sent mails via port 21, i know i could just set up my

Hello, I?m in the process of migrating a mail server to new hardware. At the same time, I?ve made the decision to switch from courier to dovecot (v2.2.13) and from what I have seen so far I?m pretty happy. I have two questions for the list. I?d like my users mailboxes (Maildir format) to look like this: Inbox UserCreatedSubFolder1 UserCreatedSubFolder2 ? Sent

I've been goofing with this all day with 2.0.15 and I'm starting to realize that either a) I'm not that smart, b) it's been so long since I messed with namespaces that I'm going about it completely wrong, or c) it's just not possible. I haven't posted 'doveconf -n' and other details, because mainly I'm just looking for 'yes, this is possible' or

We're running a huge imapc-Migration from an old Courier-IMAP to Dovecot. Courier always uses "INBOX."-prefix for his folders, so we set namespace inbox { [...] separator = . prefix = INBOX. [...] } on our new Dovecot 2.2.20 system. And also we added: imapc_list_prefix=INBOX to avoid the dublication of the INBOX prefix. At the end, doveadm/dsync/imapc see

Hi everyone Been spending the whole day on the wiki and in the list archives on using dovecot for POP3 mail. I'd like to present my findings and ask for some feedback. Our current software setup: * Courier-IMAP running POP3/IMAP * Postfix MTA * MySQL backend for user and login info As for the system layout, it looks like this: * NFS server which is the same server that houses single
