similar to: RFE: please include quota waning patch

Greetings - [SIGH: I hit the "Send" button instead of "Attach". Here's Take 2...] Whilst playing with getting quotas from NFS-mounted filestores I've just discovered a slight problem with src/lib/mountpoint.c I had things working on a Solaris 10 test machine which had the mailstore mounted 'normally' using an entry in /etc/vfstab. However when I changed

Greetings - I've just discovered an oddity I didn't know I had... We have two NetApp filers: one serves people's home directories; the other their message store and control files filestores. At the moment the first of the two filers is not accessible to my Dovecot system and I assumed all would be well because, as far as I knew, I wasn't using it at all. However in

Greetings - I'm now in the last couple of weeks before going live with Dovecot (v1.0.3) on our revamped IMAP service. I'd like to double-check about the best mount options to use; could someone advise, please? I have three separate directory trees for the message store, the control files and the index files. These are arranged as follows: Message Store Mounted over NFS from

Hi, I experimented with Dovecot a while back and our site is now taking the plunge to switch to it from the UW IMAP server when we rejig the topology of our mail store and IMAP servers. Currently we have a farm of 5 IMAP servers running the UW server. Each has locally attached disk used to store people's mailboxes. Each user is allocated to one of these five servers and can only

Greetings - Work moves onward here at setting up our Dovecot IMAP service and I've got a couple more questions, I'm afraid... :-} ============================================== Q1. The UW IMAP Server supports "pre-authenticated connections" -- does Dovecot? Specifically, it is possible to create a symlink from /etc/rimapd to the UW IMAP server binary and then use rsh

Greetings - I'm having trouble working out where to alter this behaviour (so please forgive me if it turns out to be an Exim thing rather than Dovecot!)... My test service is using Exim as the MTA and Dovecot's "deliver" for the LDA. We are using Maildir mailboxes with filestore quotas. When I send a large test message to myself that cannot be delivered because I

Greetings - I've just built Dovecot 1.0beta8 and find it refuses to start. This under Solaris 10 on an Intel-based Sun system. The error message Dovecot displays (on standard error) in response to /usr/local/sbin/dovecot is Fatal: Protocol imaps given more than once I've checked through my configuration file and the only mention of "imaps" is here: # Protocols

Greetings - Could someone confirm how to perform various upgrades on a live system running Dovecot please? Scenario 1: Change to dovecot.conf =================================== If I make a change to dovecot.conf am I right in thinking I can simply send a HUP signal to the main dovecot process to get it to re- read the configuration file and act on its revised content? Scenario 2:

Is problem with CPU load solved? I have same problem - dovecot-auth eats one of my cores. I'm using dovecot 1.0.7 on Solaris 10 Sparc. I tried to use auth-bind and standard scheme with separate user for bind and have same result. Problem occupts only with LDAP authentication, on some other systems I use PostgreQSL and MySQL authentication and doesn't have this problem. Using PAM

Greetings - I've now got as far as playing with the imaptest10 test utility to see if I can stress-test our development server. imaptest10 is built against dovecot-1.0rc28 It may just be that I'm excessively heavy handed, but when I let imaptest10 rip with the command... ./imaptest10 user=test%03d host=testserver.imap.york.ac.uk clients=50 mbox=./dovecot.mbox msgs=1000 secs=30

I'm currently runing UW-IMAP (compiled vanilla) with procmail and mbox and am making my usual careful crawl (at turtle speed) through figuring out DC config. Some questions: a) I have something like 3-4 root imapd sessions so I presume that the default *login_processes_count* = 3 will be OK. I'm less clear about login_max_processes_count and login_max_connections = 256. A common

I have a little tricky issue around here. First some background: Every user is assigned their own ZFS filesystem, and it's mounted as /home/USER with a Maildir inside it. The there is a filesystem snapshot (read-only) taken automatically every day by the system. The idea is to allow users easy access to backup copies of their mail so that they can restore things themself.. For example this

Greetings - I', continuing to build a test system that, at present, only I have access to. It is running Dovecot 1.0rc24. Here's the output of a "dovecot-n"... # /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf log_path: /logfiles/mail/live/dovecot protocols: imap ssl_cert_file: /usr/local/etc/ssl/certs/imapservice-bundle.crt ssl_key_file: /usr/local/etc/ssl/private/imapservice-private.key

Hi all, I've read so much information on this that I'm a little confused as to what to follow. Here's what's going on: We just migrated away from our AIX machines which were running Postfix and UW-IMAP. We're now running Postfix with Dovecot. I already converted everyone's mbox file to maildir, but now I'm having a little troubles with how to exactly populate

Hello, I am getting this kind of Warning in the Asterisk console, but i don't know why.

Thanks in advice. Ismael.

Hi, I hope someone could help me, or at least give me a hint about this error.

Greetings - I'm finalising the layout of our new mailstore ready for a trial service using Dovecot (switching from the UW IMAP server). This is using Maildir mailboxes, changing from our current mix of MBX and traditional Berkeley. One of the things we are often asked for is how someone can grant another access to their mailbox: eg, a Head of Department wants the Departmental

Greetings - I was just wondering what the state of play was with regard to reading filestore-based quotas when the mailstore is NFS-mounted? Timo mentioned a little while ago that he'd be including it: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-May/022594.html However it isn't in 1.0.1 and isn't mentioned in the release notes for 1.0.2. Is it going to be a 1.1 feature or

This has been bugging me for years but never got around to spending a lot of time on it until I now want/need to use it for work stuff. Problem is simple I get access denied when trying to create a file in a directory that is not owned by me or my primary group that doesn't have world writable permissions. Ive also had similar issues with NFS mounts where I can't move/create/delete files
