Timo, Running v1.1.1 on OS X. What is dovecot trying to tell me here? Jun 24 15:03:50 G518X2 dovecot: IMAP(jjohnson): Sort IDs 4 broken in mailbox INBOX, reseting Thank you! G518X2:~ root# dovecot -n # 1.1.1: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf Warning: fd limit 256 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load (more than 768). Either grow the limit or change login_max_processes_count

The Dovecot Wiki is quite clear regarding its vacation auto-reply mechanism http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sieve and under what circumstances the automatic replies will NOT be sent. However, is it possible to manually add a list of envelope senders that the script will not respond to? Thank you, B. Bodger

I see these errors more often than I'd like from Dovecot-1.1.2 on Mac OS X 10.5.4 (names and numbers elided): Corrupted index cache file %s: Corrupted virtual size for uid=%d: %d ! = %d Corrupted index cache file %s: Broken virtual size for mail UID %d Corrupted index cache file %s: used_file_size too large How bad are these? What should I look for to find out why they happen? Other

People who have had "duplicate header extension" and whatever other random index file corruption problems, please see if this fixes anything: http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2006-December/007315.html The change is also in the latest nightly snapshot (http://dovecot.org/ nightly/dovecot-latest.tar.gz). You could in general treat the latest snapshot as "pretty much the

Read this in the dovecot sieve wiki: "The envelope sender is taken from a Return-Path: header in the message. The envelope recipient is taken from -d option passed to deliver." Is "-d" still a valid deliver switch? When I configure postfix's main.cf like so... mailbox_command = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d -e ..it sqwaks with, "Jun 18 18:44:50

Hi, I've run into a bit of a problem and exhausted my knowledge and research. I'm hoping that I've overlooked something very obvious! I moved from a single Apple OS X 10.6.2 server Dovecot environment to a NFS clustered environment, currently with two servers. Both servers are identical hardware, software. Currently both the Dovecot index and data files are on the NFS RAID array.

I've figured this one out... Just wanted to get it into the dovecot mailing list archive so that somebody in the future might find it if they need it. Running Dovecot on Mac OS X 10.4.11 and using LaunchDaemon to start. Following a system crash, dovecot failed to restart with this in the system log...

Timo, Running v1.0.0 The convert plugin works pretty damn good! No need to mess with external utilities. One comment, though: Running here on OS X, I configured it with this convert_mail line: convert_mail = mbox:~/Library/Mail/IMAP/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u and mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir The IMAP directory was renamed to IMAP-converted after the process but the inbox (in

Heya, I am expiriencing compiling issues on Solaris 8 and Solaris 10 boxes with dovecot 1.2.6. On Solaris 8 the compiler is gcc 64bit 3.2.2, on Solaris 10 gcc 3.4.3. On both systems the compiling fails with: /bin/bash ../../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -std=gnu99 -g -O2 -Wall -W -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wpointer-arith -Wchar-subscripts -Wformat=2

Hi all, Trying to mount an FW800 6TB volumes. The logs say; cannot find hfs+ superblock and volumes larger then 2TB are not supported yet Is my case really because of the >2TB volume? Thanks in advance, - aurf

Hi. Several months ago, I posted my first pass at a patch to transfer Mac OS X HFS+ metadata (resource forks and Finder metadata) to non-HFS+ filesystems (Linux, Solaris, etc). I finally got a chance to update the patch to reflect suggestions offered on the list. Thanks for the ideas, this version should be a big improvement. The diff and a binary (and a fuller explanation) can be found at:

As you all know, rsync doesn't have any special handling for Mac OS X HFS+ resource forks. Kevin Boyd made RsyncX and rsync_hfs, to address this gap, but they only work when the destination filesystem is also HFS+. I haven't been able to find any references to an rsync that is capable of syncing from HFS+ to UFS (etc). The only solutions I've seen involve lots of preprocessing

Hi folks, years ago I had no problem installing CentOS7 on my iMac workstation (iMac Late 2015). The installation worked out of the box. Today I wanted to upgrade to CentOS8 and while configuring the partitions I get an error that the installation can not start because: "HFS+ ESP needed and mounted on /boot/efi". In fact they are the same partition as for CentOS7. Is this a regression

I will be deploying Dovecot on OS X shortly. I am looking for clarification on the limits imposed by OS X and sysctl [kern.maxproc]. I understand that it is defaulting to 532, but can be raised to 2500. I believe the OS uses around 100 or so, plus I will have other processes and shells at times. Does Dovecot use one process per user logged in? I find Apple Mail uses about 4 IMAP

While trying to dodge issues with case-sensitivity, I stumbled on a somewhat effective solution: the old Mac OS Hierarchical File System (HFS). HFS is case insensitive and supports symlinks, making it very useful for Wine. The drawbacks are that it's slow compared to modern file systems, the max file size is 2GB and filenames are limited to 31 bytes. It will likely have problems running
