[Dovecot] Multiple network interface question
Hi all, Sorry if this question has been posted before. I have dug through the archives but haven't found any relevant answers to this question. I am running Dovecot on a server that serves a number of (virtual) domains each with a number of (virtual) users. To read mail I am providing a webmail client and have configured HTTPS connections using reverse DNS so that each domain has its own IP address and that each IP address gets mapped to a different virtual host. Each virtual host presents and HTTPS connection particular to their own domain using the SSL certificate for that domain so that each user only sees his or her own domain throughout. Is it possible to configure Dovecot so that mail-clients like Thunderbird or Outlook can connect via the default port using their own domain (maybe also using reverse DNS) and be presented with an SSL connection particular to that domain (i.e. using that domains certificate)? Any comments welcome. Thanks in advance, -Mike
Re: [Dovecot] namespaces...
The SEPARATOR should just refer to the storage structure and the PREFIX should refer to the hierarchy. So if you use / as your SEPARATOR, then your storage structure will be user-directory/folder/sub-folder and if you use . as your storage structure (the default), then your storage structure will be user-directory/.folder.sub-folder . A PREFIX of INBOX. should cause all of the folders sub-folders to appear under the inbox; a PREFIX of . should cause all of the folders to appear at the top level; and a PREFIX of Mail. will should all of the folders to appear under Mail with the exception of the INBOX. Thx for your long post! ^_^ I understood that it was something like .prefixseparatorfolder1separatorfolder2 But, from my tests, it seems not to work as expected... At least not with thunderbird. By default, Tbird has allow server to override namespaces prefix=INBOX. and separator=. = no prefix and Trash system not working. prefix= and separator=. = INBOX. prefix (from tbird) and Trash system working. '/' in prefix and separator seems to be ignored (converted to '.'). I guess I will leave it to prefix= and separator=. but one user who uses apple mail complained about some prefix problems... Thx, JD
Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot 1.1.2
Ühel kenal päeval, E, 2008-08-25 kell 10:59, kirjutas CJ Keist: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Lauri, This is a known bug. You can search the dovecot mailing list for assertion. I'm running on Solaris 10 and see the same errors. So far it doesn't look to be causing my users any problems. I also did apply the patch: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/d674c05d725d I am not sure if this patch helped, but i downgraded dovecot to 1.0.15, this does not generate new problems. It seems that UID-s break in mailboxes and then thunderbird is starting to show wrong information - UID-s in it's cache do not match those which are in real mailbox and e-mail get wrong information about user and subject. -- Lauri Jesmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tartu Ülikool
[Dovecot] Custom Debian package bulding
Hi I am using Debian source packages from http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/. When downloading dependencies, I have seen that the package requires MySQL, that I don't use. How could I remove this dependency or chanage them? Is that defined in any file? However, I would like to use SQLite or Postgres to store dict data for the Expire plugin. Where should I enable these flags? Thanks.
[Dovecot] unclear alias behaviour
Hi all In /etc/aliases I have set up an alias for root pointing to david which is a unix account. Other email accounts are virtual dovecot accounts, one of them is andel. They all work fine using /etc/postfix/virtual when used with the domain name which is defined in /etc/postfix/virtual.domains. But the alias david andel in /etc/postfix/virtual does work only when sending to [EMAIL PROTECTED] but not for the local mails sent to root. And then there is another behaviour I don't understand. In my virtual mail folder /srv/vmail/domain.com dovecot made a new directory structure david which I didn't intend, for postfix should rewrite it to andel. Where is the error? Thanks for any hints, David

[Dovecot] Dovecot - T-Bird - RETR command failed
I have recently installed new untangle firewalls ( untangle.com) in Bridge mode at two office locations. Both offices collect mail from a Fedora 9, postfix,dovecot server at location #1. Since the install of the untangles i have been plagued by Thunderbird Errors while trying to POP email. The error says RETR command failed. If the user logs into the webmail (Squirrelmail) on the mail server and cleans out his inbox by deleting all existing mail, T-Bird starts operating again. This error has repeated itself without a pattern i can identify dozens of time over the last few weeks. No other email client displays errors.

[Dovecot] syncml with server push email
Any recommendations for server push email using syncml and dovecot? I am familiar with Funambol for syncing pim info, but not used it for email. Are there any recommended opensource or commercial syncml servers that are known to integrate nicely with Dovecot 1.x? Googling hasn't really turned up much in the way of useful info. To mix it up a little, I was using Funambol for the Pim stuff, but ran into a bunch of issues and switched to eGroupWare which has it's own syncml ability which works quite nicely with my pda. I stopped using Funambol as the server didn't properly deal with the conversion from vcal to ical and as a result appointments synced on the pda end, always ended up 8 hours early :-( This was going from ThunderBird to Windows Mobile, so I am hoping to avoid this happening again. -- Harondel J.

Aug 26 13:58:41 mailserver dovecot: POP3(username): Connection closed top=0/0, retr=1/6987, del=0/1, size=6970 Dovecot sees that the connection gets closed unexpectedly. Most likely by the firewall that was inspecting the POP3 traffic and found something it didn't like (or caused it to hit a bug or something). The problem probably goes away if you enable SSL. Or maybe you could configure the firewalls not to look inside the POP3 traffic. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
