similar to: deliver to subfolder with dovecot's LDA

Hi, I have site w. around 7000 users, most of which have some procmail rules (theres even .procmailrc in /etc/skel with rule to put spam into spam folder). Afaik dovecot's deliver doesnt understand procmail rules, so i'd like to ask if its possible to configure procmail so it saves mail using deliver, without modifying users .procmailrc Thanks for any pointers, Vaclav Hula

We are seeing some poor performance recently that is focused around users with large mailboxes (100,000 message /INBOX, 80,000 message subfolders, etc). The performance problem manifests as very high system% utilization - basically iowait for NFS. There are two imap servers with plenty of horsepower/memory/etc. They are connected to a 3050c cluster via gig-e. Here are the mount options:

Can dovecot's deliver deliver a mail to a certain subfolder within a user's mailbox? I was thinking of something along the lines of: deliver -m subfolder But what is the correct syntax to deliver to "spam", subfolder of INBOX? deliver -m spam < message.txt deliver -m INBOX.spam < message.txt -- Ralf Hildebrandt (Ralf.Hildebrandt at charite.de) plonk at

Hi all... The prefetch entry in the wiki says: "If you're using Dovecot's local delivery agent, you'll still need a valid userdb which it can use to locate the users. You can do this by adding a normal sql/ldap userdb after userdb prefetch." (http://wiki.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/Prefetch) My question is: Does it need to be a SQL/LDAP userdb? How about static or passwd?

Hello, we are currently using sendmail, procmail, uwimap and qpopper. We are planing to replace uwimap and qpopper with dovecot. Which seems to be a very good idea :-) But: Sendmail and Procmail will not be replaced. Now I've realized that deliver rewrites existing "From <....> ..." header lines to ">From <...> ..." and adds it's own "From

Hallo, I try to migrate existing imap server to dovecot 1.2 in debian squeeze if I connect to imap://user at host/INBOX Inbox works as expected and I get the content of Maildir/{cur,new,tmp} Maildir/.subfolder already exists if I connect to imap://user at host/INBOX.subfolder I get "folder not found" if I do a imap directory listing (raw mutt config, no subscriptions)

Hello! Currently I'm trying to integrate dovecot's deliver program into procmail. So basically I'd write a patch for procmail to deliver not directly into the mbox file but delivering with the dovecot deliver program. Do you think this is a good concept? For testing I use the commands discussed below. Currently I'm having a problem that deliver doesn't recognize the

(Using dovecot 1.0 RC7 on Fedora Core 5) <scene set> Hitherto we have used UW-IMAP on a "farm" of Linux machines mounting NFS from a NetApp. (The UW-IMAP author doesn't like use of NFS, but with careful use of NFS mount arguments ('noac,actimeo=0' etc.) and trying to ensure that all activity for a given user takes place within one machine in the farm, we seem to

hello, I'm using dovecot 2.0.16 and i would like to use acl for subfolder.

Hi, I am trying to map a network drive on a Windows 7 client. It is possible to map the shared folder, but as soon as I try to map a subfolder, Windows shows an access denied message and prompts for another username and password. The user has full control over the subfolder (configured via the Windows security tab). The samba.log shows: Aug 22 10:25:19 FILESERVER smbd[5409]: Could not close

Hello folks, I'm trying to set NTFS permissions from command line using smbcacls , does anyone here know the flags for both subfolder and file permission inheritance ?

Hello, We have installed a brand new Dovecot because it seems very interesting as an IMAP server. We created a mailbox for a test user and we succeeded in copying some mails into it. However making subfolders does not work. The only folders we can create are in the root, next to the INBOX that is. We thought Maildir does support subfolders (as opposed to mbox), are we wrong here? Our Dovecot

Hi, I have this setup: recipient_delimiter = + mail_location = sdbox:~/sdbox namespace { type = public prefix = public/ location = sdbox:/home/vmail/shared/sdbox subscriptions = no } Postfix delivers via dovecot-lda: dovecot_shared unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/bin/env HOME=/home/vmail/shared /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f

Hi all, when I create a subfolder in a public mailbox the dovecot-shared file is copied for the newly created subfolder and all mails get the owner, group and permissions from the file. Unfortunately the cur, new and tmp folders only get the permissions from the file but owner and group are set according to the creator. This effectivly makes the folder private to the creator. Is this the

After looking at the way Maildir represents subfolders, I changed the sieve line from fileinto "Lists/NCCC"; to fileinto "Lists.NCCC"; and now it files into the NCCC subfolder of Lists as I wanted. I'm not sure whether this is the expected behavior or just an accident that plugging that string into the file name happens to result in the right name. I

Hi, I'm currently using the following smb.conf file so that everyone can browse any subfolder without a login prompt under /engineering. (I have neither AD-based nor Winbind-based authentication now) Even, as long as the UNIX permission is 777, anyone can write onto some folders somewhere down under this folder. [global] workgroup = Engineering netbios name = smb1 security = share

I'm using Dovecot 1.0.10 on Ubuntu 8.04, using the packages from the distro; exim4 is my MTA and it's configured according to the instructions in the wiki, everything is working fine for delivery into the Maildir INBOX via Dovecot's LDA and reading mail via IMAP using Thunderbird. My habit on previous mail systems was to create a Lists folder and subfolders under Lists for each
