Dovecot virtual and SASL with Postfix
This is my first attempt to set up virtual users and sasl with Postfix.
Can I use a regular password file in this format:
user:{plain}password
user2:{plain}password2
or do I need to use a different format? I have been trying to find an example
of a virtual user SASL file, but without any luck. I suck at Googling too.
All of the mail will be delivered to :/var/mail/vmail/domain/user

How does forwarding to another domain work at the deliver process?
:copy seems not to be supported, right?
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples#Mail_filtering_by_various_headers
if header :contains subject [order, buy] {
redirect recipi...@example.org;
}
Dovecot/Pigeonhole simply uses the sendmail executable or SMTP to
reinject the redirected/forwarded mail:
See Dovecot Options
* sendmail_path (to send mail via pipe)
* submission_host (to send mail via smtp)

Okay, bear with me now. I assume I should be using a file in this format:
user:{plain}pass:1000:1000::/home/user::userdb_mail=maildir:~/Maildir
user2:{plain}pass2:1001:1001::/home/user2
Since all of the mail is going to be delivered as I showed above, how do I
configure the line?
user:{PLAIN}secret:1002:1002:userdb_mail=maildir:/var/mail/vmail/%d/%u
The virtual user vmail is 1002:1002 on my system.

postfix alias and dovecot quota
Hello, Can someone tell me if it’s possible to configure dovecot to answer quota information about real mailbox when I query a postfix alias mailbox (this information is actually in a mysql database) ? Example : doveadm quota get - u al...@domain.com doveadm(al...@domain.com): Fatal: User doesn't exist doveadm quota get - u realmail...@domain.com Quota name Type Value Limit % user STORAGE 2048853 2048000 100 user MESSAGE6783 - 0 I’d like to have this result : doveadm quota get - u al...@domain.com Quota name Type Value Limit % user STORAGE 2048853 2048000 100 user MESSAGE6783 - 0 doveadm quota get - u realmail...@domain.com Quota name Type Value Limit % user STORAGE 2048853 2048000 100 user MESSAGE6783 - 0 Thanks for your help. Alexandre.
Any issues with dsync between 2.1.7 and 2.2.9 ?
My current production system is running dovecot 2.1.7-7ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 13.04, and I'm building a new setup based on Ubuntu 14.04 with dovecot 2.2.9-1ubuntu2.1 - current standard in the repos. I'd like to use replication to get the mailstore from the old system to the new. Are there any caveats or gotchas to be aware of ? Is it possible to make it a one-way replication ? So problems or glitches on the new setup don't propagate to the old production ? Thanks - D.
Re: postfix alias and dovecot quota
it is the job of postfix to do this, aliases are just that, aliases of the real mail account, they do not exist in real storage, else, they would not be aliaes.

Dovecot and remote SASL Client via TLS
Hello, Is it possible to configure Dovecot as SASL client for central authentication (also remotely via TCP/TLS)? Following use case: IMAP server (host 1) = Windows Domain Controller and /etc/shadow authenticator via pam (host2) Should work as: IMAP server (host 1) = SASL Client via TLS = Network = SASL Server via TLS = Local SASL via pam = Windows Domain Controller and /etc/shadow authenticator via pam (host2) Thank you.
