Hi all, I'm working to convert from a bincIMAP setup to a Dovecot setup. I've tried messing around with namespaces to make the conversion transparent, but I'm getting nowhere. Are namespaces necessary? Or can I proceed by recursively renaming the folders on the server? A transparent solution would be wonderful, but I can't get it to work for me.. Any help would be

Hi there, I'm working on converting my server from using bincimap to dovecot. I seem to be having some trouble with folders, however. Binc was set up like this : depot = "IMAPdir", /* Use Maildir++ style type = "Maildir", /* only Maildir path = "Maildir", /* default

Hi there, After being extremely impressed from implementing it in some customer installations, I've decided to migrate our mail infrastructure to dovecot. Being able to have /bin/checkpassword support across the board for pop, imap, and smtp authentication, as well as being able to ditch stunnel for the SSL layer...where were you in 2001?!? :) I have two concerns, the first is about the

Hello all I am using Freebsd 4.10stable, postfix 2.1.5 with SASL and TLS, procmail version 3.22 and binc IMAP 1.2.8 binc uses IMAPdir style mail boxes, Spam assassin, and ClamAV. Wish to convert to dovecot but your program does not support IMAPdir does it??? also i have many user accounts that i wish to use untouched if possible. I guess this is a migration question for the most part i am

Hello, So, I'm migrating from Binc to Dovecot, and one of my users has run into an odd complaint/issue. I don't know that it's a Dovecot issue necessarily, but maybe the people here know a fix anyway... The problem is that pine tab-completion now appends a "." to the end of folders that have sub-folders. In other words, say the user has these folders: INBOX

Hi, I'm fresh starting to use dovecot. Before this I used bincimap, mainly because it was very simple to config. I've tried to find the FAQ's and tried searching the archives, but little came up. My current config: server FreeBSD i386, postfix 2.4 dovecot 1.0.10 client: windows 2000 thunderbird 2.0.0.12 after some inital config this starts up, and I even have the

Hi, does anyone have at working Perl example of how to use the auth protocol with Perl (I'm planing on making a dovecot auth plugin for qpsmtpd but it would a lot easier to reuse somebody elses code :)) tia, -- Allan Joergensen - http://nowhere.dk/ "All right, so it's impossible.

Hourly I have an rsync job backup /home to /home/backup.

I am using dovecot and trying to make it compatible with my a BincIMAP installation. BincIMAP uses a scheme similar to Courier-IMAP, so I set up this default_mail_env: default_mail_env = maildir:~/Maildir And this namespace: namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes } Which mostly works as expected, but I now see an "INBOX" subfolder of "INBOX" in

Hi, I'm in the process of migrating several years worth of mail to be accessible via an IMAP server. Some time ago, I evaluated both Binc IMAP and Dovecot and found Dovecot to be much faster on large folders, which is quite important to me. One thing I did not however manage to determine from the documentation on namespaces is whether or not it is possible to implement what Binc IMAP calls

hi all 2 Questions : - how not using the authentication bind feature of ldap server ? i rewrite checkpassword-ldap recently to use in bincimap server, and it take 3 lines to do this, so i don't understand how you don't use it. it is more powerful and more secure than retrieve pasword from the base and use crypto api to compare it. - is the dovecot server support the IMAPdir feature like

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks, I've installed dovecot 0.99.14 (last port on my freebsd system), and now I've to migrate from bincimap. My system uses qmail with vpopmail (uid/gid 89) and Maildir format. Well, now the authentication is ok, but when I try to connect to mailbox I receive an error like "IMAP command SELECT failed". My dovecot.conf:

Hello! I've tried to set up dovecot in conjuction with vpopmail, and running it under djb's tcpserver instead of (x)inetd. Btw - there was no reference to setting dovecot up using (x)inetd either in the manuals/faqs i read, though I didn't search all that hard. Anyway, back to my Q: vpopmail uses vchkpw as an authentication mechanism, and with tcpserver I can do relaycontrol (based

Hi list, hi Johannes, I'm trying to use the dovecot-dspam plugin ( http://johannes.sipsolutions.net/Projects/dovecot-dspam-integration ) with vpopmail's virtual users.

I have a really weird problem. To whit: I compiled dovecot 0.99.10 on two different systems: a linux-ppc box running Debian, and a Mac OS X Server v. 10.2.8. It compiled fine on both. The same Maildir's are being served up on both -- the OS X server exports home directories to the clients via NFS. BUT the OS X box orders mailboxes this way: INBOX Deleted Items Sent Items . . . And the

(this is a resend, sorry if duplicate but my first post didn't get through). I was wondering what plans dovecot has for text and body search? This is one of those issues that *no* imap implementation ever seems to document :(. Not cyrus, courier, bincimap, or dovecot.... i speed-read some of the sources and found src/lib-mail/message-body-search.c After a quick scan, it seems: - it uses no
