I'm running rc31 and I've come across a weird little error in creating subfolders that's only apparent in a specific situation. I recently moved our entire campus from UW to dovecot, and as part of that migration, and following the wiki, I have some namespaces: ##default namespace namespace private { separator = / prefix = inbox = yes } #for

I am using dovecot 1.0.rc15 (a similar problem occurred in rc10) on Solaris 9 (sparc). When working with a user who's home dir is on a local disk everything seems fine. But when that home is on an NFS-mounted disk things are very badly awry. Both the indices and the subscriptions file are being destroyed and what is left behind are files with names of the form .nfs72C034 etc. These files are

Help! I've broken something on my NT box - when I try to connect to my Samba server through the nethood I get an error popup that says: "<servername> is not accessible The storage control blocks were destroyed" I can connect to another samba server with no problem, other users from other machines can connect to the above server with no problem either. I can connect with net

Dear R users, I came up with some simple functions to give me the standard betas and tolerance values from a predefined lm() model. I have been trying to insert the results from these functions into the coefficients matrix in a modified summary.lm function that I'm calling summary2 (I'd never edit the summary.lm function directly!!). I managed to get the results inserted into the

Hi, I am using Dovecot to manage a complex virtual mailbox setup. It's all working splendidly, thanks to the Dovecot LDA. This morning, however, I needed to create a vacation-style autoreply for one of the virtual addresses. I made use of cmusieve, authored a little sieve script, and had it working in no time... until I discovered how limited sieve's vacation module is. Most importantly:

Hi all, I have a postfix+procmail+dovecot installation, now running basicaly on pop3 hence mailbox format, with few thousand users and less than twenty gigabytes mail. I need to move all of them to maildir, to take advantage of IMAP subfolders that do not work with mbox format (so I'm told :). Of course I cannot safely stop the service for more than a bunch of seconds... What I'm about

I have one box, a 3.x box, that has a problem finding procmailrc files. For instance, if I have a .procmailrc file in /var/www/user/homes/username it finds it and it works. If I have a .procmailrc file under /var/www/user it doesn't. Where the heck is the setting for where procmail looks for user procmailrc files? Thanks, John Hinton

So I'm confused as to why you're piping back from procmail to dovecot LDA, rather than having procmail be the final LDA. Why not use: :0 w * ^List-ID:.*jenkinsci-dev.googlegroups.com mailing-lists/jenkinsci-dev/ (The trailing slash tells procmail that jenkinssci-dev is a maildir, not an mbox) Also, procmail is way out of date, no longer maintained, and there are "semi" known

Hi all, I recently migrated my system (postfix/Dovecot)from mbox to Maildir. Almost everything is working (phone and thunderbird show all my mail and folders with mail) However I am stuck on my .procmailrc rules # cat /etc/procmailrc SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail SENDMAILFLAGS=-oi LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail.log ORGMAIL=${HOME}/Maildir/ DEFAULT=${ORGMAIL}

Hello all, I've a working dovecot installation on my machine, using exim3, virtual users and maildirs. I would like to add procmailrc rules for these (virtual) users, but i've not succeeded with that. The authentication is done with a passwd-file looking like this : testuser:password:uid:gid::/home/mail/testuser::chroot:maildir:/home/mail/testuser/Maildir/ i've put .procmailrc files

I've figured out a work-around to the problem of "winbind use default domain = yes" not working on the AD/DC. As mention below, in my specific case procmail does not see HPRS\charmaine as the actual owner 'charmaine' and I get a "Suspicious rcfile "/home/HPRS/charmaine/.procmailrc" message in maillog and the mail does not get delivered to her $HOME/Maildir

I could use some help here - As I use Dovecot I started here when trying to figure out why I could not add new mail folders under my Mac's Mail program, but could under Thunderbird. It was quickly pointed out that my system was set up to use MBOX and not MAILDIR, and some helpful links and notes were sent back and forth giving me a good clue as to how to perform the conversion

What is the trick to get Postfix's local command to pipe mail through procmail? I have: -bash-4.1$ grep allow_mail_to_commands /etc/postfix/main.cf allow_mail_to_commands = alias, forward and -bash-4.1$ cat .forward |/usr/bin/procmail and a .procmailrc file: -bash-4.1$ cat .procmailrc PATH=/usr/bsd:/bin:/usr/bin:/exp/rcf/share/bin MAILDIR=/var/lib/amanda/Mail #you'd better

I have a 6.5 machine that had everything set up and working correctly (fetchmail, sendmail w/ starttls, procmail, spamassassin) but the MB cratered. I bought a new machine, and installed Centos 6.6 and all is not well. I used the config from the previous incarnation (via backups) for fetchmail (works fine), sendmail (works fine for sending via relay and tls), but procmail now refuses to pick up

Hi, I have site w. around 7000 users, most of which have some procmail rules (theres even .procmailrc in /etc/skel with rule to put spam into spam folder). Afaik dovecot's deliver doesnt understand procmail rules, so i'd like to ask if its possible to configure procmail so it saves mail using deliver, without modifying users .procmailrc Thanks for any pointers, Vaclav Hula

Hi, I am using dovecot 2.0.16, and assigend globally procmailrc (/etc/procmailrc) which delivers mails to user's home directory in maildir formate. Also I assined quota to User through setquota (edquota) command, If the quota excedded then this case user's mail store to /var/spool/mail/user. After incresing quota how to delivered these mails to user's home dir in maildir formate

I wasn't implying that anyone do anything about it, just that's it a real problem. Unfortunately, most of the crappy sound cards are the ones that ship with your typical PC, so it's just something that people should be aware of. The solution is pretty straightforward -- just resample the audio data in real time using a reference clock. -----Original Message----- From: Jean-Marc

Hi all. I'm relatively new to Dovecot, but I really like what I'm seeing so far. I have one problem that I was hoping you could help me with though. I use Postfix for my mail server, then pass that on to procmail for filtering, and finally to deliver to put the mail in the appropriate Maildir folder. However, this isn't working. Postfix passes the mail to procmail correctly, but
