Ownership and permissions for the index directory/filesystem
I recently upgraded from DC 1.1.15 to 1.2.6. The /var/dcindx index root
directory is:
drwxrwsrwt 3962 root sys 192512 Nov 13 11:56 ./
thus 3777.
It appears that the user index directories created under DC1.1 look like
this (here for /var/dcindx/cep):
drwx--S--- 5 cep sys 256 Nov 13 14:26 cep/
while those created under V1.2 look like:

New SSL certificate problem
Our DC has been using a Verisign certificate. Over the past year, we've
been using a Digicert Wildcard Plus certificate for almost all of our
machines, and I wanted to switched over our DC mailserver.
I used the following command to generate the CSR and key:
openssl req -new -newkey rsa:1024 -nodes -out star_bard_edu.csr -keyout star_bard_edu.key -subj "/C=US/ST=NY/L=ourtown/O=Bard

[Fwd: mulitple instance run problem]
As I explained, I want to be able to run a second instance of DC through
another port to do testing while not interrupting the users using the
primary instance in the the regular port. I was instructed to create a
second config file with different listen ports and a separate base_dir.
I did so and invoked dc with -c pointing to dovecot2.conf.

/etc/passwd authentication anomalies
I am using the base AIX Unix authentication with NIS. There is a base
/etc/password file (though the passwords are in a funny, IBM-peculiar
file, /etc/security/passed) of just 18 lines...since NIS is in use, the
last line is the standard for-anything-you-don't-find-here-try NIS

Errmsgs b4 and after migration DC V1.0.15 to V1.1.8
Last Wednesday at 12:21 I made this switch, which seemed to be
uneventful. In any case, no user has reported problems since the
migration. Not content to leave well enough alone, this morning I
scanned the syslog and maillog for dovecot related errors. What I found
was that:

multiple dovecot invocations
I need to have multiple invocations of dovecot running, one for
productions and then one or more for test/dev, doing things like trying
different authentication methods, getting quota working, etc. I knew
how to do this with inetd, but I have been convinced that direct
invocation is preferable, so I need to know how to do multiple
invocations of dovecot.
I had thought that perhaps I could

Question: contention with blackberry
My production imap is currently UWIMAP with mbox.. One of the problems
commonly observed is mailbox lock loss, which happens when:
a) a VIP has multiple secretaries accessing a single mailbox (actually,
they are professional enough to have figured the realities of
conflicting access and rarely have a problem),
b) somebody leaving their machine on at home and coming in and firing up
their work

Dot Lock probelm resolution
For the record/archive, so some other unfortunate dovecot implementer won't spend weeks figuring out this particular way dotlocks can have problems... here is what was trashing our dotlocks
Basically, I was seeing this:

AIX mail quota plugin problems
From reading the wiki for a filesystem quota, I took my shot at
1) building my binaries using the mods in AIXPluginsSupport
2) changing dovecot.conf and
3) putting the plugins in the library
But I'm getting this error message when I invoke dovecot:
Plugin imap_quota not found from directory /usr/local/lib/dovecot

locking questions
I have Dovecot 1.0 in trial use by the IT staff, and have some locking
questions
Background, the mail server runs procmail, sendmail and NFS exports the
user homedir and mailbox to a) a login shell host and b) a mailing list
services host. It runs UWIMAP on the usual ports and dovecot on a
arbitrary port number. Because of concern with NFS and file access
contention. I have the following

No authentication sockets found
Thunderbird (2.0) is all of a sudden checking mail server capabilities
and keep posting a popup saying:
"Mail Server imap.bard.edu is not an IMAP4 mail server". To the best of
my knowledge, neither Tbird nor DC have been updated, though the DC imap
host was rebooted today 3 hours ago. Any info on what this is about?
DC is currently serving out of a special port and in evaluation

Mysterious change in directory ownership and removal of the execute bit on directory
In the following sequence of commands, you can see directory /7.2.1511/
will change of ownership to another user and the execute bit is removed.
This user, lbfay, is actually my own user but I am not logged on the server
while running rsync with root.

SELinux issue?
I've recently built a new mail server with centos6.5, and decided to bite the
bullet and leave SELinux running. I've stumbled through making things work and
am mostly there.
I've got my own spam and ham corpus as mbox files in /home/user/Mail/learned.
These files came from my backup of the centos 5 server this machine is replacing.
The folder is owned by the user (the following is
