Timo Please have a look at this short thread[1]. That message stops appearing whenever I shutdown dovecot.

A friend of mine passed me this[1] cause I'm recommending him Dovecot. My personal experience is very different to the one in that benchmark. I will appreciate similar links from those of you who had benchmarked Dovecot against other IMAP servers. I'm conscious that my personal experience is far to be a objetive comparison. I switched from UW-Imap/Mbox to Dovecot/Maildir a box with 45k

I'm doing in-site migration of accounts from /etc/passwd to an LDAP directory. The migration should be progressive (not all users at the same time). I'm already able to check mail for accounts in /etc/passwd and accounts in LDAP. The problem is with mail delivery. I'm using Postfix + Dovecot-LDA. This is the error I get with every delivery -- dovecot: Oct 03 00:16:09 Info:

I'm using deliver (1.0.5) with Postfix (2.1.6). I made a test for a few minutes in a moderated busy server. While most mails was delivered, a lot of them failed with this error: deliver(userfoo): Oct 15 09:58:31 Error: net_connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Resource temporarily unavailable Sounds to me something like not enough auth-master to answer every concurrent deliver. Any

According to [1], Trash is a reserverd folder name. When moving a message to it, maildirsize should be update with a negative byte count. If I move a message from any folder to Trash, maildirsize gets two lines, one positive and one negative. The problem is that a user can't move messages to Trash while being overquota because the positive entry goes before the negative. I'm using

Timo Do you have plans of adding support for writing plugins in high level languages like Python? Regards maykel

I'm migrating to LDAP mi local users, there is the auth section of my dovecot.conf -- auth default { mechanisms = plain socket listen { master { path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode = 0660 user = dovecot group = nusers } } passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } passdb pam { } userdb ldap { args =

I'm using Dovecot (1.0.10) locally to test SugarCRM. When I tried to set up a mail account in Sugar, it complains with -- SECURITY PROBLEM: insecure server advertised AUTH=PLAIN Please check your settings and try again. -- don't know if that behaviour is a bug or a feature of php-imap. The case is that I'm unable to set up the mail account in Sugar. Timo answered to me on IRC about

Hi. I'm configuring LDAP auth with dovecot (cvs trunk at 14, July) as follows: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf: user_attrs = mail,homeDirectory,mailbox,,, user_global_uid = 10000 user_global_gid = 1000 But

Hola! Dovecot should serve virtual mail users. So I've set user_global_uid and user_global_gid in dovecot_ldap.conf to vmail/vmail. Also I've commented auth the user_attrs field. Still Dovecot tries to switch to the uid that is defined in the LDAP entry. It took me some time to figure out, that the only way to prevent this is to set user_attrs = foo=uid,bar=gid or something like this,

Hi to all, I am using the new beta release 1.1. I see that parameters user_global_uid and user_global_gid are no more used in dovecot-ldap.conf. That means that, as I use LDAP as backend I am obliged to se t these two fileds in LDAP for each user even if they are always the same, as I use virtual domains. I see that I can set the in dovecot.conf the parameters mail_uid and mail_gid, but

Dear list, For educational purposes I have been working with the script below. I have a observation: line 31 #CScal[i] = (amo^2) # IT IS WRONG, I KNOW, BUT IT MAKE R TO CRASHES! I'm thinking this is a possible bug in the R! And I have a couple of doubts: 1) line 51 #curve(dchisq(x, n-1), add = T, col = 'red' I think that it is correct, but the function no

Hello, My server is configured as follows: FreeBSD 6.1 OpenLDAP 2.3.27 Cyrus SASL 2.1.21 Dovecot 1.0.rc15 I have PostFix configured to use SASL for SMTP AUTH, which in turn leverages OpenLDAP to verify users in Active Directory. I do not have, nor want to in the future, local users in FreeBSD, so I've configured PostFix for Virtual Mailboxes. Everything is working and I'm getting

I'm a bit unclear on these - give me a moment to ramble on. I should mention I'm using version 1.0.3, my primary backend is LDAP, and I do NOT want to store user mail folders in my LDAP directory. I currently have the following: default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/%d/%n passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } # Instructions for deliver state a userdb is still

hi, i'm trying to set a dovecot/pop + postfix couple with ldap authentification. and i'v got a lots of troubles. hers's my dovecot.conf protocols = pop3 login = imap login = pop3 first_valid_gid = 1000 last_valid_gid = 0 mail_extra_groups = mail default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/%1u/%u/Maildir mbox_locks = dotlock flock auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = ldap

Is it possible to query LDAP differently for different protocols? I am using dovecot for both pop3/imap and lmtp deliveries and there are different enable flags in ldap for them. I tried wrapping user_filter inside the protocols in the file dovecot-ldap.conf.ext as shown below but this didn't seem to work. protocol lmtp { user_filter =

Hi Guys, I've been trying to get this to work for 3 days now, but no luck. I have Dovecot set with an Active Directory back-end. Everything is working properly but I can't get user specific quotas.I tried with both 1.0.13 and 1.0-rc7. All users have the same quota which is set in dovecot.conf dovecot -n # 1.0.13: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf Warning: mail_extra_groups setting was often

Hello all, I've been googling for a workaround for this for nearly a week to no avail and I hope someone in the list can shed some light on it. I have downloaded and compiled dovecot 1.0.5 and applied the quota-warning to it. I have configured everything and it's working wonderfully, even the lda with the sieve plugin. This is my current relevant configuration: userdb static{ args =
