similar to: Dovecot login failing

I've been hunting around for a webmail application other than squirrelmail for reasons that really don't matter. But I'm seeing that a lot of these applications tend to sometimes access servers via IMAP, but they always seem to have a touch more information needed than might be for an IMAP session. An example is openwebmail. It authenticates very similar to how dovecot

Hello, this is a follow-up to the thread "Fetchmail can't talk to dovecot" http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2006-September/016477.html Increasing the log level I get this in the log filed: Sep 30 15:04:19 fm dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.rc7 starting up Sep 30 15:04:22 fm dovecot: auth(default): passwd-file /etc/dovecot_user_file: Read 1 users Sep 30 15:05:05 fm dovecot: auth(default):

I have been struggling with getting my Fedora 7 box set up to use dovecot with Squirrelmail and Maildir. It works correctly with the exception of writing outgoing mail to the right folder (.Sent) or drafts (.Drafts). If I send a mail with Mutt, it writes the mail to the right place, so it has to be squirrelmail config or dovecot config. I want to use .Sent for sent-mail (~user/Maildir/.Sent) and

Hello All, I have a Dovecot v2.2.12 installation running on a Fedora 20 box which is the mailserver for my family. This means that it is serving only 4 accounts. I use fetchmail->procmail to feed Dovecot and I read my mail on clients such as Evolution on (another) Fedora 20 machine, iPad/iPhone or squirrelmail on the web (running on the same Fedora 20 server). The average mail throughput for

Hello, I'm just setting up a new server and wanting to use MySQL for user authentication. Here is what I have: Fedora Core 5: 2.6.17-1.2145_FC5 Dovecot v1.0.rc2 (RPM install from atrpms.net) MySQL v5.0.22 SquirrelMail v 1.4.6-7.fc5 ...Running on a Dual XEON machine I've added the following to dovecot.conf: auth default { passdb sql { args =

Hello, I want to use dovecot on my private debian/unstable-system to have the advantages of an IMAP-Server (Access to mails from different computers, Simply changing the mail client). I decided to use dovecot, because I very often have read (in the web) that it should be more simple to configure than other servers. Now I have the following question: I want to use getmail to retrieve mails

hello, do you mind if I ask before I start poking about ? suddenly I notice that gmail is ignoring or because there is an error getmail is not sending the delete request. Mails are sent and received but not deleted gmail so I keep getting them. mick at rapunzel:~/.getmail$ getmail --rcfile getmailrc1 Delivery error (command deliver 1363 wrote to stderr: lda(mick,)Error:

Hello everyone, I'm using getmail to fetch some external mails from POP3 into a dovecot mailbox (providing IMAP). Getmail seems to have some serious problems keeping track of mails already fetched. I have every Mail exactly twice in my Mailbox delivered by Dovecot. Of course they are not in the original external POP3 Inbox. I hope I'm in right place here. I think the problem is not

Hello, my first post in this list. Hope it's the right place.:-) I'm having a problem running getmail together with Dovecot LDA for virtual users. To achive this I let getmail run under the user that owns the virtual email accounts-root. The problem is that getmail is running under the user vmail and therefore the emails received will be put into vmail's mailbox. But the emails

Hi there, I put together a mail server with postfix+dovecot+mysql with virtual users and it works just fine as internal mail server, but when i put ir under a multidrop email server it sends ok but so far coulnd make getmail to deliver mails correctly. the use of getmail + dovecot downloads email via pop3 but then put all the emails in the same inbox. my maildir is /var/vmail/[domain] getmalirc

Hi I'm changing from fetchmail to getmail, in order to fetch my mail from several mail servers and deliver it to my local dovecot server. Fetchmail supports LMTP, getmail doesn't. So I'm making getmail call dovecot-lda for delivering the mail. But now, the incoming mail doesn't get filtered through sieve any longer. However, this command works: sieve-filter -v -u v

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear dovecot developers, first: thanks for this really cool imapd, on my server it serves some hundred domains, all in all some thousand users, some having hundred thousand mails in their Maildirs (their spam boxes mostly). Since I put this installation in an FreeBSD geli encrypted disc image I had no choice but to choose an imapd with clever

Hey All, Id just like to start by thanking Timo Sirainen and any others that helped produce such a great IMAP server, it was a breeze to set up with no previous experience in mail servers. What I am trying to do is setup a spare computer to run Dovecot and that It stores all my email from my accounts which are all accessed through POP. This way instead of being tied to one mail client (and

I 'm using potfix-dovcote as an internal mail server(local.myco.com) and wan to run another potfix-dovcote as an external mail server (myco.com) on Internet.75% of my users should only work internally(no external mail) but the rest of users (25%)should be able to send mail to external network! These users have the same username on myco.com. I use smtp_generic_maps to map int username of these

Just re-tried this, and it doesn't seem to fire getmail on access for me. My incrontab is as follows: /home/user/Maildir/cur/ IN_ALL_EVENTS,IN_ONESHOT /home/user/bin/mvmail.sh The incrontab rule does work, but only if I make a physical change in /home/user/Maildir/cur/ e.g. by moving a mail from another folder in there. Just accessing the particular inbox doesn't seem to trigger

Hi, I'm currently running getmail in a cron job every 2 minutes, so I was quite intrigued by this on the wiki: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/TriggerGetmailOnIMAPAccess Thing is - I couldn't see how it would work and, when I tried it, it didn't work (at least not for me). It details using incrontab to monitor /home/username/.maildir/cur in order to trigger getmail. However,

I'm trying to phase out procmail and move to dovecot-sieve instead. It ain't proving easy. I'll describe my setup: - Centos 5.2 box with dovecot 1.1.4 and dovecot-sieve 1.1.6 from ATrpms. - A single user account is used to store all our email (the account is called maildb). - Getmail is being used to fetch the email from various ISP mailboxes. I want to deliver mail to different

hi all i'm using fedora core 4, with postfix and dovecot (0.99) installed via yum i can send mail from the server (using mail), and i can receive mail in my user mailbox on the server but i can't send email using a client like thunderbird (it won't connect to the smtp server) and i can't download email from pop3 using thunderbird it always says authentication failed when i

Hello, I've got a problem fetching my emails using getmail. First question is, of course, what's causing the problems. I'm going to think that getmail get's an error code from dovecot when trying to connect and just signals the most common error, so it seems to be a problem with dovecot. Sorry but I cannot upload any files with the silly web interface of my provider, so I cannot
