similar to: vpopmail "last auth" question

Ever since Columbus day things have been strange with my two dovecot servers, according to my Blackberry users. We do not have a BES just the standard BIS that comes with a personal account. Several people have told me that since that Monday that they get occasional duplicate copies of messages which only appear singularly in their Maildir inboxes. I myself even called VZW and got

Hello, I'm migrating many accounts to a new server with vpopmail 5.4.33 and dovecot 2.0.11. I've already vpopmail 5.4.32 and dovecot 1.2.16 on others servers running without problems. With dovecot 2.0.11 my lastauth file is not updated. This file usually is update on any access (smtp, pop3, imap) with the client's IP, for every mailbox. Now it's updated only when a client

Hi All, I have dovecot working wonderfully on a qmail/vpopmail, but I've noticed my 'lastauth' is never filled in.. If I use vpopmail's pop, and auth to that, then 'lastauth' is updated. It just seems weird that if dovecot is using the vpopmail lib, that lastauth wouldn't be updated. Has anyone else run into this? Thanks Rick

I'm working to get Dovecot 2.0.13 working along with qmail, Vpopmail and Squirrelmail on a Debian 6.0.2 system, Dovecot compiled, not from a package. Vpopmail has a widely known assigned user/group ID of 89 and is the owner of all the mail folders. Regardless of value of first_valid_uid (1, 89, other), Dovecot denies Squirrelmail connection, saying it can't allow access to UID 89.

Hi, First, I'm not sure if dovecot should alter this, but it seems vpopmail writes the IP into the 'remote_ip' field instead of the auth type. Dovecot still writes the auth type.? I want both. So I modified my vpopmail install to write an additional field into the lastauth table.? My custom vpopmail writes the remote IP into remote_ip, and the auth type into a 'type'

Hey Guys, I'm using vpopmail, and was told here that I need to use the vchkpw passwd module to authenticate AND get my lastauth data updated. It works like a charm, but I've come across another minor issue. vchkpw sets the 'connection-type' based on the variable TCPLOCALPORT If that's not set, it defaults to pop. What this does in my environment is cause someone who is

Hi, i have qmail + vpopmail + dovecot + squirrelmail 0.99.14 on Fedora Core 4. Qmail includes its own pop3 server, and everybody is able to access it from outside. Dovecot is used only locally by SquirrelMail - so everybody can access via webmail. I'd like to make imap directly available from outside, but only for a few selected domains (NOT ip addresses!), while leaving everyone able to

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

I was just wondering how dovecot interacts with vpopmail. Does it just call the vchkpw and pass the username and password to it then wait for a it to tell dovecot weather the user is vaild or not ? Does vchkpw pass back the users homedir ? PS. My plan is to just replace vchkpw with a script/program of own. that dovecot can call to auth a user again xmail passwd file. And using "auth_passdb

Hello Does dovecot know to expand %d in default_mail_env to the default vpopmail domain in case the user logs without attaching the @domain in his login ? I last tried this on an old dovecot and this didn't work... Radu

Hi all. We've just migrated our back-end NFS mailstore from FC1 systems to CentOS4 and are experiencing problems/delays with vpopmail and user Maildirs. IMAP is fine, it's just POP access that causes us problems. Now, NFS mounts successfully, the clients can see /home/vpopmail and serve content as we would expect. IMAP works perfectly and sees new messages as soon as they're

Hi folks, I have recently installed rsync.2.6.9. on CentOS4.x boxes. That was my first backup yesterday. But I notice that some hidden (or dot files) are not copied to the other host on the network. And group and ownership of the files are changed to ?nobody? while files and folders permission are copied properly. So what am mission here can anybody shed light please? Here is the result;

Hello all, I seem to have lost my netlogon share.. I've seen scattered info about this via google.. Is there a resolution? Is there something that I am missing? We didn't have this problem in 3.0.22 (FreeBSD ports if it matters) I can open the netlogon share via \\isc # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 192.168.1.218 (192.168.1.218) # Date: 2006/11/03 08:34:30 [global]

@2.0's master.conf, there's, e.g., service config { type= config executable =config unix_listener { path = config mode = 0666 } } can someone please explain function/usage for the 'type', 'executable' & 'path' fields? and, for any file paths, are the presumed to be _relative_ to the dovecot executable? in $PATH? can they accept full/absolute

Hi, I have tried compiling the latest cvs version of dovecot on my FreeBSD 5.2.1-release box with the ports version of vpopmail: 5.4.3_1. In the configuration file I have two auth paragraphs, one for passwd authentication and one for vpopmail-auth: auth vpopmail { mechanisms = plain userdb = vpopmail passdb = vpopmail user = vpopmail } But the vpopmail dosn'nt work. I got the

I'm using dovecot 1.2.14 with vpopmail. I've enabled shared folders and the default setup was not working. The default setup being this line: location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u Going through the Archives I saw a message from Timo that said to apply a patch and use this line instead: location =
