Re: [Dovecot] GlusterFS

What about your experience? I'm also interested to hear how it works out? It appears that the straightline speed is high for gluster, but it's per file performance has enough overhead that it's a signficant problem for maildir type applications which manipulate lots of small files? Possibly it works very well if you go mbox though? Ed W

I then decided to patch the source so that one can pass any argument to the ntlm_auth helper by specifying at new line in dovecot.conf with the token auth_winbind_helper_args (for instance, what I wanted to do is auth_winbind_helper_args = --require-membership- of=... ) There are already too many settings, so do you think it would work ok if auth_winbind_helper_path was instead modified to support arguments? I guess it would (could you send a patch for that too? :) Let me work on that, I'll come back to the list with the patch. François --

Re: [Dovecot] Install from source of dovecot 1.1.2
Hello Guy, Guy, 10.08.2008 (d.m.y): I have what I'm sure is a stupid question. I'm trying to install Dovecot 1.1.2 from source and my command sequence is this: cd dovecot-1.1.2 ./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --with-mysql --with-storagesmaildir --sysconfdir=/etc/dovecot make make install cd ../dovecot-sieve-1.1.5 ./configure --with-dovecot=../dovecot-1.1.2 make make install I don't get any errors during either install OK, but you do make install as root, don't you? I've done the odd config on dovecot to try and keep it as close to the install dirs used by the Dovecot package included with Ubuntu. Once it's done, dovecot -n still looks in /usr/local/etc and when I try and start dovecot it looks for the libexec dir in /usr/local instead of /usr. Is there something I'm missing on the configure? Please check what you $PATH variable looks like and if there exists another dovecot in /usr/local/sbin (which maybe is mentioned in your $PATH before /usr/sbin). Or just call /usr/sbin dovecot -n.

[Dovecot] problems with sieve and lda
Okay, after reading the wiki and list archives, I am confused.
I am attemping to get the deliver LDA working on a centos 5.1 system
# rpm -qa | grep dovecot
dovecot-1.0.7-2.el5
dovecot-sieve-1.0.2-6.el5
# rpm -qa | grep postfix
postfix-2.3.3-2
so that I can use Sieve for mail filtering to imap folders, I am using the
mbox format
Following the wiki here for system users
http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix
I never get any info in the logs about cmusieve, the only way I see anything
show up is if I add the transport settings to postfix/master.cf or see below
From reading the list archives, as best as I can tell, the only time I need
to make the changes in postfix's master.cf is if I am using a virtual
environment, otherwise for local delivery, all I need is the mailbox_command
setting in postfix/main.cf
However with that setting, I get nothing! If I then run deliver from the
command line as per a couple of mailling postings,
cat /etc/hosts | /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d [EMAIL PROTECTED] -f
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I get
