similar to: namespace subscription problem

Greetings all, I'm trying to get an understanding of a problem we are facing here. We're currently running dovecot 1.0-beta3 and have a long standing issue of system crashes on our mail server (Debian Linux 2.4.27-2-k7-smp). Here's what is happening: The machine hangs and the system load climbs as high as 80.0+. Yet, the system response is not effected. Command line is still

When logs (e.g. /var/log/maillog) are rotated (e.g. to /var/log/maillog-YYYYMDD) is there a way via systemd or whatever to assign read permission to a specific group? Right now, for example - ls -l maillog* -rw------- 1 root root 3105240 Mar 13 22:04 maillog -rw------- 1 root root 1079031 Feb 24 04:39 maillog-20190224 -rw------- 1 root root 7237640 Mar 1 12:59 maillog-20190228 -rw------- 1

Hello, I use dovecot + dspam and a very simple global sieve script : require "fileinto"; if header :contains "X-DSPAM-Result" "Spam" { fileinto "SPAM"; stop; } with dovecot 1.0 all run fine, but moving to 1.1 I experience this in maillog : Oct 13 10:31:52 h8h1 deliver(ml at sd2i.com): msgid=<8a24c15885037554724ff966f5458592 at

Hi, I'm trying to figure out which process is rotating my maillog every Sunday at 4:03 am. This happens on all of my centos 4 boxes. AFAICT, logrotate is not running. This is from a fairly minimal install, so I'm assuming this is a default process. --- [root at penguin ~]# ls -l /var/log/maill* -rw------- 1 root root 230603836 Sep 27 16:30 /var/log/maillog -rw------- 1 root

I'm a little confused about how public namespaces work with subscriptions. If I set subscriptions=no and subscribe to the folders, the subscription entries go into the user's private subscription file and that's fine. However, I am unable to pull their status with the LIST-EXTENDED extension. Normal listing works OK: A0004 LIST "" "*" RETURN (STATUS (MESSAGES

Hi all, my problem seems to be a cosmetic one (again). According to the docs: subscriptions: "yes" (default) if this namespace should handle its own subscriptions. If "no", then the first parent namespace with subscriptions=yes will handle it. Therefore is no way to create the following scenario: three namespaces (private, shared, public) the private namespace has to

The current documentation makes mention of a "special" subscription namespace. The example given: namespace subscriptions { subscriptions = yes prefix = "" list = no hidden = yes } namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = subscriptions = no [...] results in a startup error as both namespaces have the same prefix. Was the intent for the

I have configured an public namespace "Test" for a group of users: | namespace public { | separator = . | prefix = Test. | location = maildir:/mailroot/public/Test | hidden = no | list = yes | subscriptions = yes | } Using each users own subscription file for a public mailbox doesn't make sense when the mailbox is heavily used. Every directory operation

My /var/log/maillog was getting pretty big because of lots of testing and re-configuring I've been doing lately with both Dovecot and Postfix. I figured just remove /var/log/maillog and it would be re-created. It wasn't--not by Dovecot, not by Postfix. I had to manually create a new one, put one character in it, save it, properly secure it with chmod, and then Dovecot (and postfix)

Hello, what this message means? "NO Unknown subscription namespace." the shared namespace is visible and I can fetch messages from it, but subscription fails with the above message.

Hi all I just ran these tests on my network and came up with these results. I found it interesting and thought I would share. In all test the same 2.5 Gig logfile was used for transfer (2719312019 Nov 12 11:42 maillog.back) (2.5G Nov 12 11:42 maillog.back) The transfer was done over two Gigabit nic's one onboard broadcom on IBM X440 server, Other Intel on standard selfbuilt dual P3 880

Hi, I'm new to the list and to dovecot. I'm having a strange situation that provides no errors, so I'm having a little problem diagnosing what's going on. I've been running a Centos 3 mail server with sendmail for our company for quite a few years. I finally got approval for new servers this year and put Centos 6.2 on it. I'm sticking with sendmail, but that's not

Hi, I been using dovecot for awhile and its been solid, however I been having some issues with dictionary attacks. I installed fail2ban and for the most part is working fine. However today I got another spammer relaying through my server. Looking at the logs I see the following dictonary attack from 94.242.206.37 Nov 10 03:04:38 pop dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected: rip=94.242.206.37,

Hello, I have a curious phenomenon. Dovecot logs normally to /var/log/maillog. If I restart my server, dovecot loggs to /var/log/audit/audit.log. If I restart dovecot, dovecot loggs to /var/log/maillog again. And I think, wenn logrotate is restarting, dovecot logs to audit.log. But I don't know why. Any Ideas? greetings Ralf

Hello, no sieve SCRIPT. in the maillog say "Stored to INBOX". I don't have the maillog plugin, I install it now to track future problems. But If I backup the inbox all email (also that I cannot see) is in the mbox file.

Background: I am wanting to create shared folders (public namespace) with access control lists on the sub directories. Our implementation of dovecot (v1.0b7) uses many virtual users and domains and 1 actual user (vmail), all using maildir. So far I have successfully created the public namespace (Public_Folders) which every user can access but I'm having difficulty restricting access using

Just set up postfix & it's running on my RHES 4.2 box. Immediately after postfix is up, I test sending emails from a permitted domain (ahhh, on this postfix server's domain firewall, we even have a firewall rule which permits Tcp25 from those few sending domains' SMTP servers) using an email client to sender_id@[IP_address_of_the_postfix_server] & the /var/log/maillog on

How can I disable PostFix maillog ( /var/log/maillog ) ?

Hi hoping someone can help me a little with this one. I have 2 mail servers, the incoming mail server runs dovecot and the outgoing mail server runs postfix with sasl. Lately I noticed a lot of spammers are running dictionary attacks on my incoming server and then using that user/password for sasl on the outgoing server. The weird thing is I never see on the logs the guessed
