similar to: Dovecot LDAP schema?

Hi! Running Dovecot 2.2.36 and authenticating against an OpenLDAP 2.4.45 server. Now since some update of dovecot it will not be able to authenticate your logins after a restart of the LDAP service is restarted without a reboot of the dovecot server. Anything new here that I should be aware of? Best Regards Dag

I am trying to set up Dovecot so that it uses LDAP, but I keep getting this error message in /var/log/syslog: Dec 12 03:38:17 mydomain dovecot-auth: LDAP: ldap_search() failed (filter user_filter = (mail=user at mydomain.tld)): Bad search filter Relevant configuration files: /etc/dovecot-ldap.conf: hosts = localhost dn = cn=dovecot,ou=sysAccounts,dc=mydomain,dc=tld dnpass = password

Hello, Dovecot 2.2.25 CentOS 7 I setup ldap (FreeIPA) to have a user for dovecot that can (read search compare) all attributes that I need for dovecot.

Hello, I am trying to switch from LDA to LMTP on a Postfix/Dovecot setup, but something is going wrong. I have followed the directions at: https://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixDovecotLMTP Here is a session from dovecot.log: Aug 4 12:19:42 vmail2 dovecot: lmtp(3152): Connect from local Aug 4 12:19:42 vmail2 dovecot: auth: ldap(imaptester at noa.gr): unknown user Aug 4 12:19:42 vmail2

> Sounds more like you just introduced a new self-created problem that would require yet another workaround.. ;-) Definitely wrong. Appending .dir to directories and .folder to folder files keeps files completely distinct and name collissions are not possible. > But what was not clear from your mail, is what exactly you identified as "the problems" with standard Maildir++

Hi, I need some help I am currently setting up my FC5 box with ldap + samba + postfix + dovecot support as prescribed in howto http://wanderingbarque.com/howtos/mailserver/mailserver.html My problem is in starting the dovecot server. I get the following error Starting Dovecot Imap: Error: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot.conf line 16: Unknown setting: passdb My dovcot.conf file:

Hi, I am trying to deal with the problem, that under regular mbox format a path can lead to either a file or a directory, but not both, while under IMAP, a path is usually both, a message folder containing subfolders. I found dovecot's approach to this problem, the Maildir++ layout described under http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MboxChildFolders , and was astonished to see, what problems come with

Hi, it becomes more and more common to have machines with dynamically assigned IP addresses online (e.g. DSL), which can be found through dynamic DNS entries. Unfortunately, the "Known Hosts" mechanism doesn't work for these machines: Since the entry is made for the IP address, there's a new entry every time the address changes. Therefore, an option should be invented

Hello, I am trying to setup samba4/openchange and dovecot. Does anyone has experiences concering dovecot connecting to samba4 ??

Hi, just a simple question about dovecot: The mbox file format contains the SMTP envelope sender and transmission date in a FROM ... line preceding the RFC822 mail header and body. As far as I see at the moment, the IMAP protocol does not support transmission of that SMTP envelope data in either way, but confusingly uses the term ?envelope? for a structure describing the RFC822 mail header.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi! Is there a solution to auth dovecot against an windows active directory? i've tried this config: - --- # Space separated list of LDAP hosts to use. host:port is allowed too. hosts = dc.foo.bar # Distinguished Name - the username used to login to the LDAP server dn = cn=oh,cn=Users,dc=foo,dc=bar # Password for LDAP server dnpass = password

All, I recently did a fresh install/setup on centos 5 to replace my older courier-imap and all seemed to go well until today I started to notice that it simply hangs. I use thunderbird and squirrel mail and after a while it seems like I"m simply rejected. I'm almost guessing that it has to do with the session timing out and then dovecot is unwilling or unable to renew the session. I

I'm trying Dovecot v1.0-test43 with ldap authentication but can't seem to make it work.

Hi, I'd like to suggest a new feature to rsync. Problem: Currently, rsync generates a recursive list of file existing a the source directory, modifies this list by includes and excludes, and then copies these files. That's pretty good in most, but not all cases. I am mirroring a debian archive, but unfortunately, debian mixes all files of several distributions in a subtree /pool.

Hi, just a question: I know that dovecot supports SASL authentication and supports LDAP. Which means that dovecot performs the SASL methods itself and stores the plaintext secret on LDAP. But it is also possible to have the LDAP do the SASL work and dovecot just pass SASL messages through? Even when the LDAP server uses a proprietary SASL method not supported by dovecot? regards Hadmut

Hi, dovecot provides POP and IMAP services. Proposal: Would be nice if it also could offer an RSS-Feed for a mailbox, giving a summery of sender/subject/date and maybe the first lines of text. regards Hadmut
