[Dovecot] New error messages
I was glancing at my logwatch report when I noticed: dovecot: IMAP(robinmail): fchown(/home/robinmail/mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.log.newlock, -1, 10(wheel)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=100(users), group based on /var/mail/robinmail): 1 Time(s) dovecot: IMAP(robinmail): fchown(/home/robinmail/mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.tmp, -1, 10(wheel)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=100(users), group based on /var/mail/robinmail): 3 Time(s) So what's going on here? :) I am fairly sure I never had them before. Running dovecot 1.2.6. TIA -Robin -- -- Robin Atwood.

In fact, the problem was, as I thought, with the phone software. It got so confused it deleted the email account and when I recreated it everything worked again. I suspect something with the IMAP indices getting out of sync. Cheers... -Robin -- -- Robin Atwood.

Home directory is correct.
Dovecot is running as a root
service so it should have access. Setting mail_debug=yes produces no
clues, so what should I be looking at?
Sieve is used only by deliver binary, which isn't running as root.
Sounds like you're never even calling it?
That was my impression! Since mail delivery is already working, I assumed I do
not have to customise sendmail.cf. Is that not the case? I am not sure I
understand this deliver thing, I thought in my case it actually meant
sendmail.

Re: [Dovecot] How to logoff a session with dovecot?

The trouble is the GPRS account remains logged on and I get the mail in both inboxes. There is no option in the email client on the phone to disconnect, so is there any trick to forcing a disconnect from the mail server? I guess you could do something with post-login scripting (http://wiki.dovecot.org/PostLoginScripting). For example track GPRS vs. non-GPRS connections based on $IP. When non-GPRS connection logs in, kill all imap processes using GPRS IP. Timo - Thanks for the suggestion, that hook looks very useful. I tried killing the imap-login processes manually and it seemed to do the trick! Cheers... -Robin -- -- Robin Atwood.

[Dovecot] Compiling drac.c on a 64 bit system
