The correct way has to be one or the other: http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Exim are mutually exclusive with http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/DebianStable It appears that exim can either call dovecot's LDA or make the delivery itself. There may be good reasons to do it one way or the other. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Karl Schmidt

As far as I have been able to figure out, dovecot auth always works over a Unix domain socket. I believe it is not currently possible to operate dovecot auth over an Internet domain (TCP) socket. Am I correct? I want to call dovecot's exported authentication from a Java application. Java doesn't natively know how to talk to a Unix domain socket, so there are inconveniences. There

Hello All, I have built up my email server with exim + dovecot + clamv/spamassasin. I am using exim as LDA(local delivery agent). I was reading about using dovecot as LDA but I couldn't find why should I use it? Now, I am looking expert advice on "Why should I use dovecot LDA" ? Is there any benefit in terms of functionality or performance ? Any advice/suggestion/feedbacks

Hi List, I am writing some basic LCR (Least Cost Routing) AGI script for Asterisk written in Perl which I intend to GPL when it's finished and properly documented. In order to have a way to compare rates, I'd like to have some 'rule of thumb' rule - which will be overridable - and which converts, say, a 60/15 rate, or a 30/6 rate into an 'approximate average' 1/1 rate

hi all, i've exim 4.53RC2 + dovecot-cvs on OSX 10.4.2. i'm working on implementing recipient-delimiters for delivery from exim to a user's imap store using dovecot's cvs-lda. reading on the wiki (Jakob's latest comments?): " ... the part after the delimiter is passed to the lda as an additional parameter. so dovecot-lda should handle that parameter and leave the

In reading the Dovecot NFS WIKI entry: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/NFS It mentions a FreeBSD NFS client caching bug. I believe that bug only exists pre-8.x ? It seems that a patch in the PR notes was MFC'd and made it into 8.x at some point. (at least I checked the source in 8.3 and it was there). So I assume that FreeBSD 8.x mitigates the issue? Maybe not? So our deployment is multi

Hello! I setup quota and quota warnings for my mail system(dovecot+exim). By I want to reject only outgoing messages if quota exceeded. Is it possible to congi dovecot to not reject incoming messages? I use dovecot-lda for mail delivery. ldap_delivery: driver = pipe command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d "${lookup ldap{user=**********))(mai -f $sender_address -a

Hi I configured Exim with dovecot LDA and added quota (dict/mysql). It works but it seems that dovecot is not reporting situation back to exim process - it looks like Exim returns OK(accepted) to smtp sender before the message is actually delivered - if the quota is exceeded then LDA drops the mail and sends DSN. Is it possible to change that behavior to report problem immediately (within

Good day! I have a problem with mail redirection through sieve rules. I've configured sieve rule that redirects any mail coming to user to gmail mailbox (or whatever external mail system there is). But when sieve redirects any mail it puts vmail@%dovecot_hostname% into envelope address, gives it to my exim for delivery and gmail rejects my mail because user vmail@%dovecot_hostname% do not

Thank you! I disabled quota plugin and now if quota exceed I can't send any email, but I can receive new emails. 2017-10-20 8:22 GMT+03:00 Steffen Kaiser <skdovecot at smail.inf.fh-brs.de>: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Thu, 19 Oct 2017, Aidar Kamalov wrote: > > Hello!

Hello, I am trying to run exim 4.68 and dovecot 1.0.13 on Solaris 10 x86 5/08 using dovecot lda and sieve with virtual users and domains, tls and ssl. At the moment certificates are from my internal CA Exim and Dovecot, dovecot lda and dovecot sieve were downloaded and installed from Blastwave. Mail delivery (ie from Exim to dovecot via dovecot lda) is working correctly but when I try

Hi All, We are soon to migrate our mail server from one piece of hardware to another and we would like to take this opportunity to optimize things. As a result, we would like to replace "uw-imapd" and "qpopper" with "dovecot". The version we will be installing is 1.1.13-2, as this is what is available through the latest Debian stable backports. We will also be using

I have been searching all day & most of last night, but can't find any benchmarking or recommendations regarding R system requirements for very large (2-5GB) data sets to help guide our hardware configuration. If anybody has experience with this they're willing to share or could anybody point me in a direction that might be productive to research, it would be much appreciated.

Hello all, Is there a way to use LMTP (or LDA) so that maildir index and dovecot-uidlist are not updated? My setup is such that mail delivery sees user's maildir as write only. This setup works well when using postfix for mail delivery, but when I try to switch to dovecot LMTP the lmtp process wants to read the dovecot-uidlist and fails on insufficient privileges. Is there a way around this

Is there any way to pass things like "quota=" for the quota plugin to the deliver LDA via the command line or as an environment variable or whatever? I've got all the info I need in my MTA to avoid a userdb lookup in the LDA, but I still have to do the userdb query to get the per-user quota number (the default quota works fine, of course). -- bill-dovecot at carpenter.ORG
