similar to: POP3 UIDL

Hello, I'm sure there is no good answer to my question, but it doesn't take much to ask, so I will. I am about to migrate my current Dovecot IMAP + Popa3d mailbox server to Maildir. I need to keep both protocols (IMAP and POP3) and will be switching to Dovecot on both. The question is simple - is there any way to keep POP3 UIDs through migration, so people won't get duplicates

convert_mail = mbox:%h/mail Convert plugin. If set, specifies the source storage path which is converted to destination storage (mail_location) when the user logs in. The existing mail directory is renamed to <dir>-converted. I'm not entirely clear on what this does. If someone can clarify for me, I'll update the Wiki. I'm hoping it'll allow me to convert

hi! all, i'm using oidentd-2.0.8 installed through /usr/ports/security/oidentd for ident authentication what puzzled me is when im starting the daemon using the script provided at /usr/local/etc/rc.d/oidentd.sh it will create a lot of process ID and my system will become slow CPU resources will turn upside down rapidly from 90+% idle to always 0% idle this is the PIDs while querying daemon

How can be sure of the current POP3 UIDL? Below my current config (to be migrated to 2.0.x ASAP).

I finally got my aging FC2 box retired and moved all email to my new CentOS 5 box. My site is all-IMAP, no POP3. I have one user who downloads all email to Thunderbird on his laptop so that he can work offline while away from a network connection (eg. on an airplane). I forgot to change the pop3_uidl_format setting as described here: <http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.0> So he was

Hi I run a small mail server with Dovecot and postfix. Several of the accounts are popped by an external email provide I use, mostly out habit and also for a bit of redundancy. I have no details on that external server except that it uses exim. Lately, it's been repopping mail from accounts (mail is left on the server so I can use IMAP) at fairly frequent, but undetermined, intervals. Before

Hi all, attached is a patch against 0.99.10.4 that fixes the STAT, LIST and UIDL POP3 command output in the case that they're issued after one or more messages have been deleted. Examples of incorrect behavior (bad spots marked with '***') C: STAT S: +OK 2 806 C: LIST S: +OK 2 messages: S: 1 403 S: 2 403 S: . C: UIDL S: +OK S: 1 1076749908.12

Hi I have Redhat ES4.0 with dovecot-0.99.11-2.EL4.1 installed. Reading a post Outlook Duplicates issue is still killing me, there seems to be asolution to this, I was wondering when this will be available on redhat es40? # Note that Outlook 2003 seems to have problems with %v.%u format which is # Dovecot's default, so if you're building a new server it would be a good # idea to

I just installed dovecot 1.0alpha4 on a very busy RHEL4 server with about 1300 users. So far so good, except for the dreaded duplicate emails in outlook for users who use POP3 and have "leave message on server" selected. After searching the archives I found that this is usually related to the UIDL format. The example in the .conf file is this: / # If you want UIDL compatibility

With a INBOX mbox created by UW IMAP the messages in INBOX mbox contains the X-UIDL field When I use Dovecot POP3 with pop3_uidl_format = %08Xv%08Xu on the first run, X-UID is inserted, but all messages are downloaded again. What am I missing, I don't want the clients to download the read messages again. Thanks Bertrand Leboeuf leboeuf at emt.inrs.ca

Greetings, is anybody aware of an extension to POP3 that supports UIDL ranges? It would be very useful for keep-messages-on-server setups (yes, I know, IMAP4 domain) to be able to do UIDL 21-42 to obtain just these 22 UIDs (this would always have to be a multi-line reply, just like UIDL without argument). If such a thing does not exist yet, perhaps a keyword such as "[X]UIDLRANGES" in

Hi, Here is an updated patch which allows to use tpop3d compatible UIDL in dovecot (it's against 1.0rc1): http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/SOURCES/dovecot-tpop3d-uidl.patch?rev=1.2 which is based on: http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2006-March/012080.html Please consider merging it. -- Arkadiusz Mi?kiewicz PLD/Linux Team arekm / maven.pl

Hello All! I am new to this list so I hope I'm not in the wrong list with my question. First, I have to say that dovecot is (in my opinion) one of the best POP3/IMAP servers arround. I especialy like its' simplicity (configuration) and powerfullness (speed, auth mechs). In my production environment I would like to cange from tpop3d to dovecot, but I have only one little problem :).

Thank you for the reply of my previous post (http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-March/020716.html) now it works, but I have another question about migrating pop3 account (with leave mail on server) to maildir. On this post -> http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2006-February/011464.html you explain how to create dovecot-uidlist preserving UIDVALIDITY. Is there someone that have

Hi, I just migrated a server running qmail+vpopmail+maildir to sendmail+dovecot+maildir+vpopmail The migrating is working great thanks to the help from the list and the wiki. I'm now running the infamous problem about duplicating emails, because of pop3 UIDL mismatch. My question is: anyone knows that the pop3_uidl_format string for a vpopmail server? I'm using vpopmail auth and

Hi, we're trying to migrate from UW imap 2001a-10, which doesn't seem to use the UIDL format documented in the wiki. It seems to use a 16 character long MD5 hash of something. I've tried configuring Dovecot to do the same but the value comes out differently. The main thing that I can see is getting in the way is that the UIDL format is not documented sufficiently. There is no

Hi, i've few problem with uidl with some mailbox.

Hello, I'm in the process of migrating accounts between two dovecot servers. An old server running ancient 1.0.15 and a new server running 1.2.15. Account migration is going to be gradual and so i would like to use imapsync to move messages and subscriptions from one server to the other. The only problem so far is with POP users. After doing an account migration with imapsync, and

I have been setting up a new mail server and copied our client's old mail to it. The old server has Courier (under Plesk), we're using Dovecot on the new server. Most accounts seem to work fine (under IMAP or POP3), but for a few we're getting the following in the /var/log/mail.err. Error: Message ordering changed unexpectedly (msg #1: storage seq 140 -> 1) Fatal: Can't
