[Dovecot] Dovecot and user's quota
Hi, We are planning to use Dovecot-2.0.5 (Maildir format) as IMAP server. Currently, we are using Postfix+UW-Imap (mbox format) with the following configuration: - Postfix: Sends new messages to /var/mail/user - UW-IMAP: Reads mails from /var/mail/user and moves them to ~/nsmail/mbox Using that configuration, when a user overtakes his HOME’s quota, the MTA is still able to send new messages to the user, although he cannot read it until he frees HOME space. Can we configure Dovecot to work in the same way? I mean… 1)Postfix must use /var/mail partition for new mails. 2)Dovecot must move these mails to user’s HOME. 3)User’s HOME must be in Maildir format. If that is not possible, how can we achieve an equivalent solution? Thanks in advance. Oriol.

[Dovecot] dovecot2.0+ldap auth problems
I'm using a config from dovecot 1.2 adapted to 2.0 After update config, and restart dovecot service: If I do a doveadm user user1 then it is found correctly. If I do a doveadm auth user1 then it is ask for the password user, and it's running correctly. But if I tray to login by telnet using IMAP then I get: . login user1 pass1 Connection closed by foreign host. I can see at logs a Info line with: Internal login failre with auth failed It's very odd that with doveadm runs ok and but not with IMAP.

Here is the dovecot entry from master.cf:
dovecot unix - n n - - pipe

Maybe the problem is that you run deliver as user dovecot. You
should use another user/group for deliver. Also you should make sure
that this user/group has correct permissions on /usr/vmail.

And this script NOT working:

Re: [Dovecot] Occasional fchown errors?
as a reminder if you didn't follow the thread. this only avoids
inheritance assumption. if you have shared folders, they should be g+s
to delegate (group) ownership. also, this is for 2.x

Well, you could check if list-ns-type is NAMESPACE_PRIVATE or something else. But then again, some people have created shared mailboxes by symlinking them into private namespace, and then it's pretty much impossible to know if it's shared or not.

yes, my mind has been churning on path dereference resolution and efficiency since i made this version of the patch. thank you. -david On 11/10/2010 02:13 PM, Timo Sirainen wrote: On Wed, 2010-11-10 at 14:01 -0500, David Ford wrote: Timo, i'm stuck with no time for studying code at the moment. is there a quick/easy way to check if this is a personal or shared mailbox we are working under? i can then update my patch so it works for both cases.

[Dovecot] Phantom email message
Got sort of a strange problem on one email account. Everything works fine with Thunderbird/IMAP showing the correct unread message count. But on my DroidX smartphone one of my email accounts always shows one unread message, but I can't bring any unread messages up. It's like there's something there making it think there's a message when there isn't. The email client is K-9 mail Anyone have any ideas?

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.0.7 Virtual plugin
Well, it seens the virtual plugins is not working correctly or i miss
undertood how to configurate it.
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual
as this wiki says,
I should be possible to make an ndeamespace
namespace {
prefix = virtual/
separator = /
location = virtual:~/Maildir/virtual
}
And in side of ~/Maildir/virtual create virtual folders and inside of those
folders create dovecot-vitual.
But it does not work.
Right if i make this conf, on my imap client it shows a folder called
virtual ( the prefix, or whtever i put in there ) and show nothing, only
shows something if i create a dovecot-virtual inside of ~/Maildir/virtual/
i would appreciate if someone explain what i am doind wrong.
Thanks!

[Dovecot] dovecot dictionary attacks
Hi, I been using dovecot for awhile and its been solid, however I been having some issues with dictionary attacks. I installed fail2ban and for the most part is working fine. However today I got another spammer relaying through my server.

Increases the number of connections that anvil process can handle before it

As it turns out, i seens to be a client problem, and an miss understando problem. Using only one namespace this folder ABCD will be under folder virtual right ? I guess for each virtual folder i have to create an namespace so it does not apear under any folder righ ? i mean this. ABCD ad EFGH will be virtual so for achive this setup need to be 2 namespaces with prefix ABCD and EFGH right ? Inbox Spam ABCD EFGH Other wise would turns out like this: right ? if i use only one namespace with prefix vrtual and create both folder in it.. Inbox Spam virtual -ABCD -EFGH so, folders ABCD and EFGH will be inside folder virtual correct ?
