similar to: 1.1.alpha2 error in logs

I'd like a separate feature for setting umask for index and cache files differently from email files. The reason is that I'm putting indexes in a separate location and I need group create rights in directories. Otherwise what happens is that the first user creates the directories, but the second user for the domain that has a different UID gets an error. default_mail_env =

Hi, We are currently moving from linuxconf/dovecot to a dovecot setup with sql support, the problem we currently facing is having a message sent to a aliase delivered to the user email inbox with dovecot-lda, i have created cedrict at mail.vdl and a alias test at mail.vdl, when i send to cedrict at mail.vdl the message is included in the user inbox file, but when i send to test at mail.vdl

I'm running rsync version 3.0.6 in order to migrate a set of objects from an old server to a new one. The set of object to migrate is basically composed of mail dirs which follow a well-defined name pattern, such that I believe it should be easily handled by the --filter option. I'm infact attempting to use the following rsync command in the new server: rsync -auEAXDSvz --delete-after

OK - here's whay I need to make it work for my Linuxconf compatible authentication system. First - a question: Will this work? I can find docs on "virtualfile. auth virtualfile { mechanisms = plain digest-md5 userdb = passwd-file /etc/vmail/passwd.%d passdb = passwd-file /etc/vmail/shadow.%d user = root } Then - since the dmain name selects the passwd file, if there were a

This would make my life a lot easier in migrating to Dovecot. And it should be really easy to implement. Here's how linuxconf does it: Password files are placed in the /etc/vmail directory as follows: /etc/vmail/passwd.domain1 /etc/vmail/shadow.domain1 /etc/vmail/passwd.domain2 /etc/vmail/shadow.domain2 The password and shadow files are exactly the same format as the /etc/password and

We have a cross platform environment with a Windows 2008 server running Active Directory and many of our workstations are running ubuntu 10.10 using winbind for user authentication. The version of samba running on these boxes is 3.5.4 We are looking to upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04 which runs samba 3.6.3 I am able to connect to the DC, and am able to see the users running the wbinfo -u command, but

I've noticed that a lot of people are using e.g.: mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n Then either they don't have home directory set, or their home directory is the same as the maildir. http://wiki.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home explains all the problems of not separate home and mail directories. Also whenever I try to suggest using a separate home and mail directory, the answer is

Running rc24 and with one user in particular they are getting "(auth) killed with signal 11" when trying to pop email. IMAP works.

Trying to do a little (cosmetic) tweak to my configuration and just don't seem to be able to come up with a set of options that works. My POP/IMAP configuration is working just fine in terms of mail retrieval, etc. What I'm seeing in the logs now is...

OK - I thought this was going to be easy. Maybe it is. I'm just not that good at reading directions. Trying to use dsync. Getting this error: Mail locations must use the same virtual mailbox hierarchy separator (specify separator for the default namespace) Currently using maildir. The setup is as follows: mail_uid = mail mail_gid = mail mail_location =

Getting an error on POP only - "Authentication Server Isn't Connected" IMAP works fine. This used to work. not sure what changed.

Trying to figure out how to convert an existing mbox system to maildir Below is my dovecot.conf file. Tried adding this at the bottom of the file and nothing happens. plugin { convert_mail = mbox:/vhome/%d/home/%n:INBOX=/vhome/%d/home/%n/INBOX convert_skip_broken_mailboxes=yes } What am I doing wrong? ## Dovecot 1.0 configuration file # '#' character and everything after it is

I am running Ubuntu 12.04 using winbind to connect to an Windows 2008 AD server. I use autofs to map the home directories, the only problem is the owner is reading nobody nogroup. Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? This worked in 10.10 Here are my config files. Let me know if you want to look at anything else. smb.conf ------- [global] security = ads realm = domain.com password

I've been having this problem for a long time now. It started when I first began to use Dovecot (0.9x) and seems to have been occurring more and more frequently as we've progressed through the betas and now into RC7. I have been kind of chaulking it up to a "user issue" since the problem only seems to occur for one user (who has one machine at his office, and one at his weekend

I have both 1.0 alpha1 and alpha2 installed on my test mail server. SSL/TLS does not work on alpha2. I'm using the same config file for both. No errrors in dovecot.log either. Is there a way to increase debugging info without recompiling?

I'm not aware of any major problems and I think I'm pretty much done with new features (except for dbox). The largest changes since alpha1: * Removed THREAD indexing. It's a bit buggy and I think

Bonjour a tous, In Dovecot v1.0.alpha2, authentication according domain seems not working passdb = passwd-file /etc/vmail/test.%d %d is not resolved as "domain.name" I browsed on mailing list post and found the problem already reported... What I can't figure out is the answer about it... > Timo Sirainen tss at iki.fi > Fri Jul 22 15:44:02 EEST 2005 > >

I had run alpha1 pretty uneventfully for several weeks. I upgraded to alpha2 a couple of days ago and have since suffered two incidents of "Lost transaction log", resulting in the client being unable to access the mailbox until I "rm dovecot.index.log*" Sep 14 10:48:35 caddy dovecot: imap(jberry): Lost transaction log file /Users/jberry/Maildir/dovecot.index.log seq 1
