Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot 1.1.2, index_mailbox_set_recent_seq crash again
The bug was completely elsewhere than I thought. I was just about to send a debug patch for some of you to test, but immediately after that I managed to reproduce it myself. :) So this should finally get rid of the problem: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/8cc0eaec7d0f signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Re: [Dovecot] migrating from specialized qpopper

With qpopper, we run it from inetd and use hosts.allow to call each

like this:
popper: ALL : twist (/pathto/bin/popper -d -s -T 300 -h %H -p
/pathto/www.%H/passwd -x /pathto/www.%H/spool)
This allows us to insert the domain (%H) based on what hostname the user
is connecting to and change parameters based on that.
Would their be any easy way to do this with dovecot?
I'd suggest a checkpassword script. Or I guess the only problem is that
Dovecot doesn't do a reverse lookup to the local IP address. You could
already use:
passdb passwd-file {
args = /pathto/www.%L/passwd
}
But %L expands to IP address, not the host name. Wouldn't be too
difficult to create a new variable for that though.

Because you were using external authentication. But why do the logfiles say this directory is missing? As far as i understood the Login-Process, every imap-login and pop3-login process is chrooted inside the login folder until the user is authentificated. In this case it would be necessary to have this folder. When i create it by hand it is missing the authentification socket. Is this the socket default, normally located inside the login folder? If so, why is this also not created? The directory isn't created if external authentication is used. I guess the reason for this was that in such a case Dovecot can't really know what the correct directory permissions would be. I guess it could still create the directory if completely missing, but .. well, no-one uses external auth. :) At the moment i got it up and running by using an own auth-process for every dovecot instance. But i would prefer authentification via one single process. I didn't notice this in your previous settings. Unfortunately it doesn't work like that currently, because Dovecots get confused as to who owns which auth connection. Sorry, i misspresented this. I am not using this configuration when i try to set up the single auth-process. Just recognized that it is also possible to run dovecot in that way. But that's not what i want. The configuration i posted the very first time is that what i use (now with chroot and login_dir set to default). If i absolutely do not get it running with single auth, i would use an auth-server for every dovecot instance. Currently there's no way to share the auth server. I'm not actually sure if it's ever going to work, but hopefully with v2.0 you don't have to run multiple instances because it'll be so much more configurable. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Re: [Dovecot] Problems with namespaces
Sorry, I somehow posted xx times the same message.
I don't want to select it, but it's selectable. Anyway, the last
configuration:
namespace public {
separator = /
prefix = Shared/
location = maildir:/vmail/%Ld/Shared:INDEX=/vmail/%Ld/%Ln/Shared
hidden = no
}
Works like charm. In Thunderbird it's displayed like Shared (grey,
italic) and when selected, doesn't display any errors. And in
Thunderbird the folder Shared isn't subscribed (It doesn't even a show
check box in the folders list).
In OE I have to subscribe to Shared to see the subfolders. And when
Shared is selected, OE displays an error.

Re: [Dovecot] mailbox lock
Ok, but we must lock the mailbox because we often move groups of mailbox from a file system to another. While the mailboxes are being moved, our LDA shouldn't delivery a new message at the old mailbox, and isn't able to delivery at the new one. The mailbox is unlocked after the exchange of the file system , if the dovecot locks the index files and then the mailbox exchanges of file system, what will unlock the index files of the dovecot? The dovecot process that perform the lock, will unlock the old index files. This old index files will be erased as well as the whole old mailbox, the new mailbox, that was moved to an another file system, will remains locked.

[Dovecot] Sieve fileinto a subfolder fails -- more info, possible workaround
After looking at the way Maildir represents subfolders, I changed the sieve line from fileinto Lists/NCCC; to fileinto Lists.NCCC; and now it files into the NCCC subfolder of Lists as I wanted. I'm not sure whether this is the expected behavior or just an accident that plugging that string into the file name happens to result in the right name. I haven't tried, but if it's just passing the fileinto argument along with minimal inspection, I'm afraid the answer might be use Lists/NCCC if mail is in mbox format but Lists.NCCC if mail is in Maildirs, and it certainly seems that users editing their sieve scripts shouldn't have to know that.
