I'd like to download a complete mail archive so that I can browse for problems concerning Mulberry. Is this possible, or can I only get them in monthly gulps? Cheers, Terry. --

I have some public mailboxes setup in 1.0.0, location = maildir:/egr/mail/shared/org:CONTROL=%h/Maildir/dovecot/public/control/org:INDEX=%h/Maildir/dovecot/public/indexes/org I also have a dovecot-shared file in the maildir folders so messages that are added to the inbox get a decent set of default permissions. However, I think dovecot is also trying to fchown the index files (stored in a user

Hi, I just yesterday played around and installed dovecot. I like it a lot (except for the lack of mysql support), but I have one issue I can't seem to fix. I am using mutt as my mailclient and mutt will alert me whenever new mail has arrived in any mailfolder I have configured. The thing is, that mutt continously signals me of new mail in all my folders, when in reality nothing has entered

Is there a way to limit the number of folders a user can have open simultaneously? I seem to remember a config option which would only permit one imap process per user, and would share this between his folders, but I cant find anything relevant in the docs now. Am I talking nonsense here? I'm new to Dovecot. Cheers, Terry.

Hello, try to use the new 2.1rc and don't get any data in the searchindex. Tried first lucene, and switched than back so solr.

Hello there, I'm pretty sure I found a bug in latest Dovecot 2.2.5.5 (EE) when playing with the doveadm command. Naturally renaming a users mail folder should be done via "doveadm es consistent. So when using "doveadm rename" trying to rename a folder with special characters e.g. german umlauts like "??" it seems to create the folder wrongly in the filesystem.

Dear Mailing List, (version and dovecot -n at the bottom) (Sorry for the bad English in this mail :) ) I'm new to dovecot and wanted to build my own mailserver using dovecot+postfix. I currently have a Problem with Permissions with my mailfolder. I could solve it easily if i set it with chmod to 777. but thats no real solution. While reading my log files i see a lot messages like: Oct 10

dovecot 0.99 still (RHEL4), I'm sorry to say. The config is for mbox's to live on the user's home disk. If the user tries to make an imap connection when his home disk is unmounted, various permission denied messages are logged, as expected, but then the imap process seems to hang around instead of aborting. The result is that eventually the imap process limit is reached, and even

Hi, The dovecot docs say that support for the automatic appending of /var/spool/mail to a ~user/mbox (as is done by UW-IMAP) may be implemented in the near future. Is this still the case? And if so, is it far off? Cheers, Terry.

Is there a document anywhere offering guidance on the optimum use of ext3 filesystems? Googling shows nothing useful and the Linux ext3 FAQ is not very forthcoming. I'm particularly interested in: 1. The effect on performance of large numbers of (generally) small files One of my ext3 filesystems has 750K files on a 36GB disk, and backup with tar takes forever. Even 'find /fs -type

The dovecot wiki says: The only way to implement shared folders with Dovecot 0.99.x is to create a "shared userid" which all of the users log in to read mail. Does this mean that folders owned by that shared uid can be *simultaneously* manipulated by multiple users logged in to that shared uid? This doesnt seem to be the case on my dovecot-0.99.11-4.EL4 system, and before

We are using Dovecot 1.2.12, FreeBSD 8.1 Stable, & SquirrelMail 1.4.21 Our problem is that SquirrelMail works fine inside our Network, but from the outside SquirrelMail times out before it can display the inbox contents. SquirrelMail times out for everyone, all of the time. In troubleshooting we have observed the following: >From the inside, if I telnet into Dovecot IMAP and issue ?

Hi, I'am using a Maildir++ based quota setting which creates a maildirsize file in every Maildir. The first two lines of this file are the maximum quota in bytes then the actual consumption in bytes and number of messages, like so : 1073741824S 379317999 5169 This means this user has a quota of 1Gb and he is using ~ 379 Mb (you have to divide by 1024 to be more precise) Since the

Hello Community, My dovecot setup works fine with quotas and quota-warning. I have a questions though: when running the warning script, the example foundis it possible to pass the *quota size *as argument also? This would be useful with per-user quota. e.g. /some/script xx% username *xxxbytes* (order is not relevant of course) Thank you for your help. Cheers

Hi Martin, Thanks for the reply. I got the error below, but when I changed the prefix in 4archives to Archive/ I am getting indeed something that is looking ok, I still have to test with a few clients. Why did you call the namespace 4archives? Because it would load before inbox? Or does this not matter at all. Error: namespace configuration error: Duplicate namespace prefix: ""

Hi, this setting might work. The default namespace "inbox" is managing INBOX and defines Special-Use folders on the same hierarchic level as INBOX. There is an extra namespace "4archives" which defines Archive as a mailbox on the same level as INBOX but stored on a different location. Set mailbox attribute auto to your liking. namespace inbox { type = private disabled = no hid

Hello, I current using dovecot 2.0.11 and with all other 2x versions occurring the same problem.
