[Dovecot] traffic statistics

[Martin Waschbüsch]

Hi all,

Does anyone know a good tool to gather traffic statistics for imap? And what 
level of logging would I need to set for dovecot to make it happen.
Ideally this would be able to filter per domain, too. ;-)

Thanks a lot,

Martin

 How about collectd ( http://collectd.org/ ) ?
 
Looks like a good package, but I could not find a dovecot plugin? If you know 
of such an extension, that'd be awesome!

changed behavior for dovecot-lda in 2.3.x

[Martin Waschbüsch]

Hi all,

Hey all, I upgraded to dovecot 2.3.1 (from 2.2.34) and noticed that the 
behavior for dovecot-lda changed. Apparently it no longer accepts -f "" or -f 
"<>?
With 2.2.34, both were accepted now I get:

root@mail:~# /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f "<>"
lda(root): Fatal: Invalid -f parameter: Null path not allowed

or

root@mail:~# /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f ""
lda(root): Fatal: Invalid -f parameter: Path is empty string

I guess this must be a bug? I mean, envelope sender *must* be empty for bounces.

Thanks,

Martin

In the list-archive, I saw at least one other person seemed to have had the 
same problem.
Anyway, I fixed my immediate problem and created a pull-request which seems 
like the right thing to do:

https://github.com/dovecot/core/pull/73 
<https://github.com/dovecot/core/pull/73>

perhaps this helps someone else, too.

Thx,

Martin
