I'm setting up a new box with Dovecot 1.0 beta1 and vpopmail. Normal operations works like a charm, i.e. vpopmail virtual can log in sucessfully using TLS. However, when trying to test dovecot-lda out of CVS, it is not locating the user: > *** Starting dovecot-imapd service... > dovecot: Info: Dovecot v1.0.beta1 starting up > dovecot: Info: auth(default): master in: USER 1

Hi, I'm building dovecot.src.rpm with vpopmail support and I get this error: if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../src/lib -I../../src/lib-sql -I../../src/lib-settings -I../../src/lib-ntlm -DAUTH_MODULE_DIR=\""/usr/lib/dovecot/auth"\" -DPKG_LIBEXECDIR=\""/usr/libexec/dovecot"\" -I/home/vpopmail/include -std=gnu99 -O2 -g -march=i686 -Wall

I'm in the final stages of testing my e-mail server to come and I seem to have hit a roadblock. One option of current vpopmail is to store all aliases in a valias table, that looks like this: +-------------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra | +-------------+----------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | alias | char(32) |

does anybody have a working config they can send me .. I just cannot seem to get this working. alternativly how can I set the debug so I can see where my config is wrong ? thanks Henti

I'll probably release 1.0.rc28 in a few days. Would be nice to get some testing for it first. http://dovecot.org/nightly/dovecot-latest.tar.gz contains pretty much what it's supposed to be. I've now replied to all the mails I was planning on replying, excluding the few patches that are v1.1 material. If you think I forgot to reply to some mail, please resend it. I think the

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, Got a situation where I have a couple of mailing list subscriptions as well as system generated e-mails from my clients' computers sending me warning messages. (Along with my normal load of personal e-mail). Does it make sense to set up virtual mailboxes (maildirs) one for each mailing list or group? Then using an IMAP client to subscribed only to the lists that I *want* to read? My

Hi, I'm still trying to migrate a running qmail + vpopmail to sendmail + dovecot. I need the milter stuff from sendmail. I got sendmail + dovecot running using the migrated tables from the vpopmail DB, but I'm facing the UID problem in pop3. So, now I'm following the vpopmail authdb path. My questions are: - what do I need, a running vpopmail server (lib + binary, etc)? - or only

hello, I follow your suggestions : _cyrus timsieved installed on the two LDA server _the sieve script stored in the /var/home (which is the virtual home directory) and in /var/mail/user/ for testing purposes But nothing happened when the user receive a email.

I have just moved our corporate e-mail over to qmail/dovecot and am very happy with the performance. However, I have had two reports of messages going missing which may or may not be directly related to Dovecot. I was able to observe this in action this morning: 1) I got the user out of their e-mail client (Mozilla 1.7.2) and forced an email to be delivered. It showed up in Maildir/new. 2)

Hi, I'm very fond of maildirs, they are simple, I like that. But I've never really understood the significance of maildir/new/. The only use I can see is that (for example in the case of dovecot), you'd move a message from new to cur and then update the index-file, that's it. So to make put it more direct, you'd know when and with what to update the index-file, based on

Hi all, I'm going to be out of office for the next week (starting in the next hour or so) and I need to unsubscribe (I'm sure you don't want my out of office replies really) Can anyone help me by saving me the time it'll take to lookup the unsubscribe/resubscribe details?

I have dovecot-0.99.11-1FC3.4. I use Pine on the server and Outlook 2003 on remote computers to access IMAP and POP3 to access via my blackberry 7100t. It seems that after using IMAP and then going back to pine it somehow refreshes everything and all the messages are picked up on my blackberry once again as if the emails are new. So everything that is in my inbox is now pushed or grabbed

http://dovecot.org/test/ Possibly fixes the mail-cache-transaction assert. Passdb and userdb configuration changed. New format is: passdb sql { args = /etc/dovecot-sql.conf } passdb pam?{ } userdb passwd { } The above would first try to authenticate from SQL database, if it failed because user wasn't found, or password was wrong, it would then try PAM. The same is done for userdbs.

Hi, I upgraded my MySQL installation on my FC2 machine from the 3.23 version to the newest 5.0 version. Now dovecot won't start. It gives me the error : 'dovecot dead but subsys locked'. I am using dovecot-0.99-14. Here's the output of 'ldd /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-auth: --- libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x00a6d000) libcrypto.so.4 =>
