Since my old config had this: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s ssl_cert_file = /usr/share/ssl/certs/imapd.pem ssl_key_file = /usr/share/ssl/certs/imapd.pem then the convert script should have added ssl = yes Just trying to document all the little issues as I find them.

The sample dovecot-example.conf contains these lines: > # PEM encoded X.509 SSL/TLS certificate and private key. They're opened before > # dropping root privileges, so keep the key file unreadable by anyone but > # root. Included doc/mkcert.sh can be used to easily generate self-signed > # certificate, just make sure to update the domains in dovecot-openssl.cnf > #ssl_cert_file

I can set up and access a dovecot pop3 account using outlook express fine. I can telnet into it fine. However, GFI FaxMaker is failing to log in. I assisted a client in switching his web site, including email from one server (FreeBSD) which was using Cyrus to a Redhat 4.0 server using dovecot version 0.99.11 Here's the listing of dovecot -n: dovecot -n Usage: dovecot [-F] [-c <config

Hi, today I have built dovecot from cvs sources, and upgraded server from beta-7 to this newer version. Then i got problems with opening INBOX using thunderbird 1.5.0.2. The client says "Opening folder...", then, after about half a minute, blinking "connecting to the server" and returning to "Opening folder..." /var/log/maillog gets the messages: --- Jun 22

Hi! Sorry if this has been covered. I've just started using dovecot and I've searched via google and I've downloaded the maillist archives, but I haven't found a solution. I'm using Fedora Core 1, with dovecot-0.99.10-6. When I'm at work, I access my home mail server using Outlook Express (I know, I know, but it's the only client I'm allowed to use at work).

I'm having problems with the iPhone client in the 1.1.1 version of the iPhone software. Things with other clients work fine, and the iPhone worked fine before it was upgraded to 1.1.1. Other phones on 1.1.1 failed. I'm still working on testing against the client with the iPhone 1.0.2 software on it. The problem is that the client simply doesn't connect to dovecot. I can see the

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, occasionally Dovecot stops to accept new connections. Already existing ones do function properly. Strace'ing dovecot-auth reveals that it is running and is authentificating users, the logfile logs new connections. However, lots of other connects just stall, before the IMAP server responds with the greeting. My user backend is a LDAP

Getting an error on POP only - "Authentication Server Isn't Connected" IMAP works fine. This used to work. not sure what changed.

Hi, I use dovecot (pop) with gentoo but it's not securize. I would like to use pops but i don't how to do this. I think i have to use certificates...

Is it possible to setup dovecot to have it presented different SSL certificates to connections coming at different ports. I don't see it in the docs. It seems, dovecot would present the same certificate to all connecting ports. Thanks.

Hi, I've just started trying allow_nets on one of my servers. I have auth_debug and auth_verbose both enabled and the output is as follows: Oct 28 13:05:48 mink dovecot: auth-worker(default): auth(user at domain.net,x.x.x.x): allow_nets: Matching for network 127.0.0.1/8 Oct 28 13:05:48 mink dovecot: auth-worker(default): auth(user at domain.net,x.x.x.x): allow_nets: Matching for network

Hi all, Ok, been wanting to do this for a while, and I after the Heartbleed fiasco, the boss finally agreed to let me buy some real certs... Until now, we've been using self-signed certs with the following dovecot config: ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/ourCerts/imap.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/ourCerts/imap_key.pem Now, I've created new keys/certs and the CSR, got the new

well, with some help I've made a fair amount of progress on my box. It's working out much easier than I had anticipated and perhaps my notes will be useful some day. I have two questions... Here is where I am: cling:~# egrep -v "^($|\#)" /etc/dovecot.conf protocols = imap imaps login = imap login_max_processes_count = 16 login = pop3 max_mail_processes = 512

Hello, I want to use a different certificate for a different port(protocol). I searched http://wiki.dovecot.org/ and the mail archives. But such mechanism were not found. Could you implement a such mechanism? Or already implemented it, please teach how to do. I am assuming the following situations. MailAddress: [users]@example.com SMTP Server: smtp.example.com POP3 Server: pop3.example.com

Hello, In our configuration, we are using a "passdb passwd-file", with "user=" directives in each username, and a separate "userdb passwd-file" which contains the target usernames for the "user=" directives. This works fine, for normal logins via POP and IMAP. For customer support testing purposes, we also set up a temporary "master=yes"

First of all, let me say that I'm really impressed with Dovecot. It is great. Problem description =================== Now I've got a possible bug I'd like to report. I've been learning about the IMAP protocol recently, and have started playing with the IDLE command. The problem is that Dovecot doesn't always notify the client when there is new mail available.
