Re: [Dovecot] TLS / Dovecot / POP3

Maybe http://wiki.dovecot.org/SSL helps understanding them (just replace imap/imaps with pop3/pop3s).

Can someone enlighten me on how to config it so he looks up

Try:
auth_username_format = %Lu
[ %Lu - %u turned to lowercase ]
%...@%d you have used produced double domain so try it without trailing
@%d.

[Dovecot] 1.2.beta1: expire-tool and 'mail_location' setting
Hi Timo, Trying 1.2.beta1 with expire plugin currently: When I set mail_location = maildir:~/.maildir the expire plugin doesn't delete messages. #: expire-tool --test Info: auth input: system_user=foo Info: auth input: uid=1000 Info: auth input: gid=1000 Info: auth input: home=/home/foo Info: foo/Trash: no messages left I also noticed that above command creates a new but empty directory 'mail' in user's home dir. However using mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir and of course moving the messages to it works. #: expire-tool --test Info: auth input: system_user=foo Info: auth input: uid=1000 Info: auth input: gid=1000 Info: auth input: home=/home/foo Info: foo/Trash: seq=1 uid=4078: Expunge . . Info: foo/Trash: seq=100 uid=4178: Expunge Info: foo/Trash: seq=101 uid=4179: Expunge Info: foo/Trash: timestamp 1235292536 - 1235325429 My guess is that mail_location is not respected by expire-tool for some reason and in second case mailbox auto-detection makes it working?

Have you tried to change username_format for passdb and userdb *TOO*?
You seem to overwrite global default in sub sections.
They both are set to %n - username with stripped domain.

My experience with dovecot is limited so treat my replies as guesses

Do you see anything in your log?
Nothing about sieve.
Interestingly enough there appear to be some values in the

dovecot -n. I must admit I'm surprised everything _seems_ to be
working as I've had some formatting issues in the dovecot.conf file

Did you defined sieve_global_path = /etc/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve?
Remeber to change ownership to default.sieve file with your vmail
user and group.
No, I didn't defined it.
And my .dovecot.sieve files are owned by vmail and mail, respectively
my vmail user and group :)
The only difference I found with this current setup and my other server
(except for the virtual user configuration on this server) is that i
compiled dovecot without pop3d on the other one, and with it on this one
(and since pop3 is currently used, i can't afford to remove it).

[Dovecot] pine vs dovecot-zlib (mbox.gz)
Hello!
Always reproducible pine vs dovecot-imap-mbox.gz scene has weird errors.
- Initial message is OK: [Folder SAVE.gz opened with 211 messages
READONLY]
- Some mails at the end are listed correctly, others are listed with
empty sender/size/subject (just numbering).
- All mails have no bodies. Full header command produces total blank
screen. Even before any error message.
Error messages appear during navigation:
[{localhost/imap/user=nil}SAVE.gz : Missing IMAP reply key: )]
[MAIL FOLDER SAVE.gz CLOSED DUE TO ACCESS ERROR]
Seamonkey works with both mbox-es and mbox.gz-s.
Mbox-es are working with both SeaMonkey and pine.

Thanks, Nil.
