[Dovecot] Override config in deliver command line
Hi all In dovecot deliver LDA, is there a way to override some configuration settings for particular users? Tha full story is: I have a simple postfix/dovecot setup. No virtual users, delivery is done in /home/mail/%u. For a specific user, I would like to deliver to a maildir. Since mail_location is not explicitly configured, I simply created ~/Maildir for that user, relying on the default automatic mailbox location procedure used by dovecot. But I would like to be able to override this setting: for example if I wanted to use a name different from Maildir, this trick would not be sufficient. So it would be nice to have some way to change mail_location (and why not, other config parameters) only for particular users (and for me, doing this on the command line would be good: something like Postfix where you can override config parameters simply writing the new settings in master.cf on the daemon's command line). I noticed the -c command line switch, but I would prefer not to have entirely different configuration files for my users, where a single change must be manually propagated on all the files. I use dovecot-1.0.15 on CentOS5. Maybe this question can be read as a feature request too. Thanks Luigi
Re: [Dovecot] Override config in deliver command line
In dovecot deliver LDA, is there a way to override some configuration settings for particular users? No, I don't believe there is a way to do that at present. And yes, it would be a very useful and probably simple feature to add. I'll add my voice to the feature request for this. I also needed to do this. I ended up working around it by writing a script to create a new temporary config file, with the settings replaced. It's not pretty, but it works. Andrew.
[Dovecot] LOCALSTATEDIR
Hi I'm doing a network install of Dovecot 1.1.2. All is fine apart from a little annoying mistake I've found: I do this: ./configure --prefix=/appli/tools_Linux/dovecot/1.1.2 --localstatedir=/var make make install however, since the --localstatedir is equal to a default value, it is still being constructed as PREFIX/var for some reason and in effect produces binary with following strings being built-in: strings dovecot | grep var /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/lib/dovecot /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/run/dovecot /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/lib/dovecot/ssl-parameters.dat /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/lib/dovecot/ssl-parameters.dat var-expand.c var_expand_table_build So, the question is, is this a bug or my understanding wrong? I just need a network install, using local /var directiories for runtime data. Imagine that I have no write permissions to the installation (--prefix) folder. If you can reproduce it, this should be it, if you can't let me know to email you all the environment details.

Hello, I upgraded dovecot to 1.1.2 this weekend and i get those errors: grep dovecot /var/log/net/maillog |grep Panic | cut -d -f 11-100| sort | uniq -c | sort -rn 7547 file index-sync.c: line 39: assertion failed: (seq_range_exists(ibox-recent_flags, uid)) 89 file index-mail.c: line 1091: assertion failed: (! mail-data.destroying_stream) 18 file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 590: assertion failed: (mails[idx].from_offset == start_offset) 5 file ostream-file.c: line 533: assertion failed: ((size_t)ret == total_size || !fstream-file) 5 file mbox-lock.c: line 675: assertion failed: (lock_type == F_RDLCK || mbox-mbox_lock_type != F_RDLCK) 1 file message-parser.c: line 684: assertion failed: (ctx-part-physical_pos = ctx-input-v_offset) My setup is this: 3 servers, all Solaris, running dovecot, share home directiories via NFS, mbox format mailboxes in home directories.

When old indexes (1.0.15) were present, mailboxes with UID validity problems did not fix themselves, but after i removed index directories in all machines, seems like it started to repair uid validity problems. The first panic seems to be tied to UID validity problems. Some locking problems may be, because i renamed index directory and created new while dovecot was running. -- Lauri Jesmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tartu Ülikool

Initially we though of do that but optioned out because as we understand
it, :contains would allow a 'substring match'.

Re: [Dovecot] Proxy logging destuser
Hi Timo The patch you provided to allow Dovecot-as-proxy's login processes to log the destuser only does so for successful authentications/logins. What is the possibility that this information could additionally be logged for successful lookups, but failed authentication, e.g. valid user-name/invalid password?

[Dovecot] multiple password schemes and sql?
Hello all. Just about to migrate from courier to dovecot, and figured I would as well try and get this working so I could use non plaintext mechanisms as well. I would like to offer at least: plain login digest-md5 cram-md5 and maybe more Everything works but this and have a testdb in sql with passwords like userid, password But get Password query returned multiple matches which indicates it doesnt try using any prefix and just get a hit on all passwords for that user. Is there any variable I can use in the sql query to use an extra field that contains the password type? plain and login should be stored in some crypted form, probably as md5 or sha256 hashes. Thankful for any insight into this...
