I have a strange problems with quota on v2.0.14. We have an ldap user directory, and all users should have a mailQuota defined there. My problem is that some users gets the quota enforced, while others don't, and "doveadm user" doesn't seem to agree with "doveadm quota ge gett" Ref: $ doveadm user janfrode at example.net userdb: janfrode at example.net home

Hi List, This is my first post to this list so please be gentle :-). First of all, kudos to the developers of dovecot! Im trying to implement quota, and I followed the instructions in the wiki. My problem is the quota specified per user is not being honored, only the global quota setting. I do have an "quota = maildir:storage=204800" in the plugin area and enabled quota in the

Hi, all. I use dovecot-1.1.1 with OpenLDAP as userdb. but i failed to convert quota value as expect. I set '10' as mail quota, and it should be '10M' as expect, but it's not effect, dovecot always uses 'quota_rule' setting in dovecot.conf. How can i fix this issue? 10*1047576? I have 'mailQuota' attr in ldap schema, such as: ----8<---- mailQuota: 10 #

Hi, all. I have OpenLDAP(+qmail.schema), Dovecot, Postfix installed on RHEL 5.1 (x86_64), and they works fine with mbox format. The problem is if i set 'mailQuota=0' in LDAP, postfix can't send mail to recipient user. But it works fine with 'mailQuota != 0', such as '10240'(10M). What's wrong with my mail server setting? How can i solved this issue? Thanks very

I've tried having the ldap quota in an ldap attribute, which still doesn't work. /etc/dovecot.conf protocols = imap pop3 mail_location = maildir:/data/mail/%u/Maildir protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota imapquota } plugin { quota = maildir:ignore=Trash } the rest are defaults added an attribute 'mailQuota' with value '10240' kbytes or 10Mbytes as for

Hi, all. I use dovecot-1.1.11 with OpenLDAP backend. but i found the mail_location is not correct. How can i override mail_location setting in dovecot.conf? LDAP user data and dovecot config are attached below. in dovecot config, mail_location is: ---- mail_location = maildir:/%Lh/%Ld/%Ln/:INDEX=/%Lh/%Ld/%Ln/ ---- but the correct maildir should be 'homeDirectory' +

Hi, We recentlty upgraded our dovecot from v1.0.2 to v1.1ahpha1 under CentOS 4.4. Also, we are using Postfix 2.4.3 and OpenLDAP 2.3.35. We've been using LDAP for our POP/IAMP user authentication, however after upgrading to v1.1alpha1, LDAP authentication does't seem to be working properly. We re-examined the source code, and made a few modification. We are suspecting that... (1)

The Dovecot version is 1.2.8 and i am using an LDAP for a user database. The problem is following... i would like to use a quota dictionary backend from file rather than sql proxy for some reasons. Is it possible to get the full path for dovecot-quota file location from LDAP like from mail variable (/mailboxes/storage_01/domain.org/u/us/use/user/dbox/dovecot-quota)? /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf

I?m considering moving from maildir to mdbox, but don?t quite see how I should do the conversion with minimal downtime. Our userdb is ldap, and the we use this setting to point to the users maildirectory: user_attrs = mailMessageStore=mail=maildir:%$:INDEX=/indexes/%1u/%1.1u/%u,mailQuota=quota_rule=*:storage=%$ i.e. every user has a "mailMessageStore" attribute in LDAP that points to

Hi All, I have the Dovecot quota value coming from LDAP using the line below but my values are stored in MB, not bytes. What can I put in the line to set quotas in MB? user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,mailUID=uid,mailGID=gid,mailQuota=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$ Thanks Murray

Hello, dovecot users. I'm trying to cope with following problem I have single computer which will be going to be final destination for several virtual domains. Domains are stored in LDAP catalog. Dovecot will be working together with Postfix MTA running on same computer. I'm a bit confused how to achieve following thing: I want Postfix to use Dovecot LMTP server for mail delivery. All

It's long over due, but now I finally plan on upgrading from v1.0.15 to v1.2.16 on our servers. Would appreciate any comments! We have 7 servers, all running of the same GPFS filesystem. Both maildirs and indexes are stored here. We use dovecot for POP/IMAP and deliver. Currently we're using mysql as authentication source, but want to move to using ldap instead. Can we upgrade one server

Hi, I'm trying to run samba 2.2.6 + OpenLDAP as user/group database ( not /etc/passwd). nss_ldap+pam_ldap is installed and working OK, as I can login using ssh, or trough console with one of ldap user. But trying to connect to samba, when samba is ran as #samba -d 2 -i I get: ... init_sam_from_ldap: User [ldapuser] does not ave a uid! pass_check_smb failed - invalid password for user

This patch allows the dovecot proxy processes to lookup the destination host by name instead of IP address. Tested agains 1.2.10, expected to work against 1.2.11. The patch is pretty straightforward, it's making it work within the restrictions of the login process that's more interesting. I have made some changes to the wiki (pending approval) to - enhance the discussion of proxy

Hi all, I'm using dovecot 2.0.9 and I have a config like this: dovecot.conf: passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/conf.d/passwd-ldap.conf driver = ldap } mail_plugins = $mail_plugins quota plugin { autocreate = INBOX.SPAM autocreate2 = INBOX.NoSPAM autosubscribe = INBOX.SPAM autosubscribe2 = INBOX.NoSPAM quota = maildir } protocol imap { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_quota

How do I get IMAP+POP3 vs. LDA to use different user_query statements? The problem is that the input fields are different. IMAP/POP3 is an email address LDA is a username I have written a long statement to try and cater for both however it still only works 99% of the time, and the remaining 1% fails. The 1% that fails sees the mail being delivered to the wrong mbox. In this particular case

Hi all, I just configured Dovecot 2.0.14 for "virtual" (i.e. non-system-) users: passdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/conf.d/ldap-passdb.ext } userdb { driver = static args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/maildir/%u } Works fine so far - thanks for this great piece of software, Timo!!! Now I'd like to add per-user quotas that will also be stored in the LDAP

I am trying to tell Dovecot deliver to use $mail_location as the location to store mail for system users. From the docs I've read <http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation> I believe this is possible, but mail to my system users always gets delivered to their /home/<USERNAME> homedirectory. Here's what I've done so far: # Postfix main.cf mailbox_command =

Hi everybody, I'm currently working on the quota limits in dovecot, and Maildir quota is working fine, it reports the correct numbers. But our users also have additional space where they can put files, and I would like both to have the same quota of 2 GB. So mails + files should not exceed 2 GB. What is the best way to solve this? I already tried the following: - I put the files in
