similar to: What is your dovecot setup?

I'm running postfix + dovecot + dovecot-pigeonhole on my CentOS-7 home server. I would like spam to finish up in ~/Maildir/.Spam/ . Spam is being marked, but is not separated - it ends up with all the other email in ~/Maildir/cur/ . Evidently there is some step I have omitted to take. I give the output of "sudo doveconf -n" below. The file ~/.dovecot.sieve reads:

I'm trying to clarify the various ways in which I could set up Postfix + Dovecot + SpamAssassin under CentOS-7, and I'd welcome any comments on the following remarks. As far as I can see there are 3 standard ways of setting this up: 1. Use amavisd 2. Use dovecot + pigeonhole/sieve 3. Use spamass-milter At present I'm following (2), but am thinking of going over to (1), since

When I install the two-interfaces files in /etc/shorewall on my FC-5 system (with shorewall-3.2.3) and run "services shorewall restart" I get ------------------------------------------------------ cp -a interfaces masq policy routestopped rules zones /etc/shorewall/ ...

I finally got BackupPC working under Centos-7.1 after several hours of pain. I had been running it for several years under CentOS-6, and probably CentOS-5, but there seem to me to have been several new issues that arise with CentOS-7. In my experience, the official documentation on this, <http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html>, is more or less useless unless you have a very long

At present I get email directly on my laptop in /var/spool/mail/* through uucp. I'd like to get the email in the same directory on my desktop (alfred), and then run a mail server on the destop and collect the email on my laptop (william) (or on other computers on my two little home LANs, ethernet and WiFi). I was advised that dovecot was a good imap server for this purpose (I tried

It's not required to run backuppc as user root. I

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

We have a user who deleted IMAP folders from his account, so I simply tried to restore the folder ".FolderName" from our backup. I checked that file/folder ownership was the same as the original, but the Dovecot IMAP server is throwing errors at the client. I've tried copying the individual message files from the "cur" folders in the backup directory, but Dovecot

I have what strikes me as an odd problem with shorewall. Let me describe my setup. My desktop (alfred) is connected to the network through an ADSL modem. I am running rp-pppoe, and this works perfectly. I have a small home network, with two LANs; an Ethernet LAN (including a machine running Windows XP), and a WiFi LAN, including the laptop (william) I am using now. All the computers except for

Hello mailinglist-subscribers, i have an issue with the managesieve / sieve plugin in dovecot. We use roundcube as webmailer and if i define a new filter to move incoming mails directly into a subfolder i get the following sieve-code: require ["fileinto","imap4flags"]; # rule:[mail into folder] if allof (header :contains "from" "sender at domain.org") {

Hi all, I'm using dovecot 1.0 RC24 compiled form source on a OpenBSD 4.0, I use IMAP service with maildir storage and my mail client is Outlook 2003. If the root of the user maildir stay on the BSD filesystem everything is right. If the root of the maildir is mount on an NFS drive on Microsoft Windows 2003 server, I always have the same error when I try to move mail (under Outlook) form my

I have a CentOS-6.2 server in Italy. Every few months the server gets into a strange state and stops working after a power outage. I should say that this does not occur after every power outage; I suspect, but have no real evidence for this, that if the power comes back too quickly then the machine gets confused because it is in the middle of closing down. If I am in Italy the solution is simple;

Spamassassin seems to have become more-or-less non-functional in use with KMail on my server. It appears to be running OK, but only catches about 20% of my spam. I wonder if others have experienced this decline? I suspect that sa-learn is not performing properly. (I run sa-learn nightly on my spam, which is saved in ~/Maildir/.Spam/cur/ , through the default spamassassin installation.) Eg I

My home server is running CentOS-7.1 I'm running postfix and dovecot on it. I collect email from a few sources with fetchmail and move it to ~/Maildir/cur/ with procmail. Or at least, I did do this. For some reason procmail has stopped doing its job, and the email that I collect is finishing in /var/spool/mail/tim/ I can't work out what has caused this, or what the cure is. I haven't

I'm running dovecot version 2.0.9 under CentOS-6.5 . I want to add the following plugin: ==================== require "fileinto"; if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES" { fileinto "Spam"; } ==================== Could some kind soul tell me where exactly I should place this script (eg "anywhere in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf" or "anywhere

I have some (Thunderbird client, dovecot-1.0.13, Maildir) users who get an appalling amount of spam-with-attachment, and it's causing backups to take an inordinate amount of time. I'll implement some quota and server-side spam management when I go to dovecot-1.1, but in the meantime: What is the safest way to empty all messages within, but not delete, the following folders from the
