Hello to all members. I am using Dovecot for 5 years, but this is my first post here. I am aware of the various autoresponder scripts for vacation autoreplies (I am using Virtual Vacation 3.1 by Mischa Peters). I have an issue with auto-replies - it is vulnerable to spamming with forged email address. Forging can be prevented with several Postfix settings, which I did in the past - but was forced

I have had the same email address since 1997 (when microsoft stole bob.com from me thanks to network solutions...) In the early days I of course was free with my email and used it everwhere. Fast forward to 2012, some 15 years later. woof..the amount of spam sent to me has always just kept getting worse and worse. On my centos 5 server I just used sendmail with spamassassin and it killed a

Hi Buddies, I have 2 servers running dovecot + postfix for pop/imap users. The users mailbox are in a Nfs storage. The load of server is ranging at 3.0 to 15.0. I really dont know what happened.. I read a lot about tuning of dovecot, and the changes are applied, how you can see. The Hardware of server is really good! The host have 8GB of mem and 2 sockets with 2 cores anyone.

Hidy-ho, I'm having a difficult time getting catch-all working when using Dovecot LMTP. I would like *@example.com (everything) to go to virtual at example.com, where virtual is a valid virtual user. It seems that things are getting as far as LMTP, but then the mail gets bounced. To wit: Aug 21 08:02:50 hostname postfix/lmtp[4914]: 8DF8E9AFE6: to=<test at example.com>,

I am used to sendmail and am using Postfix now and am uncertain of some features. I typically would comment out the line in sendmail.mc that went something like 'accept unresolvable domains' I tried using smtpd_sender_restrictions = reject_unverified_sender reject_unverified_smtp and this seems a bit too restrictive and got some bounces on legitimate senders so I'm

Hi, I come back with my problem: On debian lenny, using dovecot 1.1.13-2~bpo50+1 I try to configure my setup (with Postfix virtual domains) to use dovecot as lda but nothing happens, as if postfix not delegate to dovecot I am using the contreol panel alternc (http://www.alternc.org).

I have recently installed dovecot on a FreeBSD mailserver running postfix. But when I try to login with imap/pop3, I always get an error "stat failed: Not a directory". I guess it is something wrong with the mail format postfix uses to store the message, but I don't seem to find the correct solution. Here's the postfix log with the successful delivery: Feb 17 08:58:24 mailsrv2

Hi all, I have a problem with my dovecot/postfix configuration: here is my dovecot -n # 1.2.16: /etc/dovecot.conf Warning: fd limit 128 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load (more than 768). Either grow the limit or change login_max_processes_count and max_mail_processes settings # OS: OpenBSD 4.9 i386 nfs base_dir: /var/dovecot/ log_path: /var/log/dovecot protocols: imaps pop3s

I wanted to pass this along. I'm sure it may be nothing new to most of you, but it has greatly reduced sasl attacks and spam. I found most of it here: https://scottlinux.com/2011/05/26/prevent-postfix-brute-force/ I added the fail2ban rule and modified my postfix main.cf as follows: smtpd_client_connection_rate_limit = 3 smtpd_delay_reject = yes smtpd_helo_required = yes

Following this guide: http://sys4.de/en/blog/2013/04/08/postfix-dovecot-mailbox-quota/ I can't seem to get it to work, as soon as I add the smtpd_recipient_restrictions setting to postfix I can no longer send mail at all. I get the message SMTP Error (450): Failed to add recipient "postmaster at example.com" (4.7.1 : Recipient address rejected: Internal error occurred. Refer to
