We are running Postfix 2.3.3 and Dovecot 1.0-RC27 on a Solaris 10 server. We use the Dovecot LDA for local delivery. Problems arise with looping mail whenever a user's .forward contains a reference to themselves. This most frequently occurs when a user sets up a vacation since it then puts this in their .forward file: \username, "|/usr/bin/vacation username" The vacation program

Okay, to convince myself that quota handling was working okay with Dovecot 1.0-rc27 on Solaris 10, I tested sending a message to an account that was purposely over-quota. The account in question had a vacation message set up. For the first test, there was no $HOME/.imap directory at all. I received the vacation message, but the message which was supposed to be delivered locally queued in Postfix

We have been increasing our user count and have only run across these errors so far (dovecot-1.0.rc27): Mar 18 02:50:14 myhost.mydomain dovecot: pop3-login: Can't connect to auth server at default: Connection refused Mar 18 04:07:13 myhost.mydomain dovecot: imap-login: Can't connect to auth server at default: Connection refused Mar 18 05:43:14 myhost.mydomain dovecot: pop3-login:

Running Dovecot 1.0-rc27 on Solaris 10.. We have been noticing intermittent messages of this sort and wondered if this indicates whether we need to add more dovecot-auth worker processes: Mar 28 03:15:41 myhost dovecot: pop3-login: Can't connect to auth server at default: Connection refused Mar 28 08:10:20 myhost dovecot: imap-login: Can't connect to auth server at default: Connection

Under Dovecot 1.0-rc27 on Solaris 10 we noticed this error today affecting one of our users repeatedly: Mar 28 14:02:01 myhost dovecot: IMAP(myuser): file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 423 (mbox_sync_read_and_move): assertion failed: (need_space == (uoff_t)-mails[idx].space) Mar 28 14:02:01 myhost dovecot: IMAP(myuser): Raw backtrace: 0x7ac54 -> 0x42cd4 -> 0x3e968 -> 0x3f54c -> 0x3f980

Hi folks. We're moving users from rc24 and 27 to 1.0.0. On four mailboxes so far we've seen these errors after the move (quick and dirty anonymizing follows): Apr 23 13:22:41 server.umn.edu dovecot: [ID 107833 local6.info] imap-login: Login: user=<USER>, pid=<9046>, method=PLAIN, rip=***.***.***.***, lip=***.***.***.***, TLS Apr 23 13:22:41 server.umn.edu dovecot: [ID

HI Timo & all. We're an mbox environment, inboxes in /var/mail/$USER (I'll include dovecot -n output at the bottom of this mail). mail_location is set accordingly for deliver. I'd assumed that if the /var/mail/$USER file doesn't exist, dovecot would create it, but we've discovered from experience (and I verified it in mbox-storage.c) that if access(path, R_OK|W_OK)

I just upgraded our test server from rc6 to rc10... ISSUE #1 I noticed that we no longer are getting two "From_" lines. However, the one that was good (had the original sender e-mail address) is now gone. The one with "dovecot.deliver" remains. I attempted to add "-d test" to the mailbox_command line in main.cf as follows: mailbox_command =

Help! I just noticed this error this morning, we have been getting a lot of these in rc28 and rc29, not in rc27 or before: Apr 6 07:22:52 karst dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(jaearick): mbox file /var/mail/j/jaearick was modified while we were syncing, check your locking settings Pine coughed up an internal error, no core dump, and dovecot basically doubled the size of my mailbox by

Hi, We're having some issues with certain messages not being able to be read by Dovecot. Can anyone tell me under what conditions the error messages below could be caused?

We are running Dovecot 1.0-rc27 and have run across what seems to be a fatal error (SIGSEGV) in the past few days (4 times total in past 6 days). It appears to have been 5 separate users, 5 separate remote IP addresses. Two of these have this format: Mar 26 15:13:10 myhostname dovecot: imap-login: Authenticate PLAIN failed: Don't send unrequested data: user=<rmtuser>, method=PLAIN,

Hi. I'm still facing troubles on my way.

Recently I've made the post about "double homedir" problem, but I couldn't recreate it later. Here're the exact steps to make it happen (configuration is at the bottom): 1) set configuration as below with passwd-files 2) clean testms dir (not necessary though) 3) reload dovecot (HUP is enough) 4) access the server with any client using testms user (make sure no other

We've seen two issues come up with Dovecot LDA, both of which have caused us problems: 1) If the user's home directory does not exist, or is not owned by them, deliver fails and causes the mail message to bounce back to the originator. In our environment this happens when our user is moved to another server (where we move their files, but for up to 24 hours afterwards,

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, my last tests left me with a mailbox with > 80'000 messages in Maildir. Dovecot served them fine. No problem. I usually use IMAP's "Mark messages a deleted" function and expunge later. Because the "Move to Trash" is default in many MUAs, I decided to try it on this mailbox. I do think that it is hard to

Originally I've thought that this is related to INBOX field, but it turned out it happens only when you specify mbox. Consider following passwd-file: testms::10000:10000:imap,,,:/home/vmail/ppgk.com.pl/testms/./::userdb_mail=mbox:~/Mail:INBOX=/home/vmail/ppgk.com.pl/%u/inbox or following line from userdb static: args = uid=10000 gid=10000 home=/home/vmail/ppgk.com.pl/%u/./
