[Dovecot] mail directory in user home?
by Knute Johnson 14 Jun '05

14 Jun '05

Hey: When I run dovecot and retrieve any mail for a user, a mail directory is created in the users home. It has a subdirectory Inbox. No mail goes there however, it all goes to /var/spool/username. What is that directory for and how do I get it to not make it or can I? I am only using POP3. Thanks, -- Knute Johnson Molon Labe...

[Dovecot] Problem with configure.in in dovecot-stable CVS
by Brian T Glenn 09 Jun '05

09 Jun '05

I am having trouble with using dovecot-stable from CVS. I get the following error when running autogen.sh: configure.in: 4: required file `./[config.h].in' not found I see the config.h.in file in the root dir, but I cannot figure out what the brackets are for. If I modify the file and remove the brackets, it works properly and I can compile dovecot. What are the brackets in the name for? Am I breaking something by removing them? Thanks, -- Brian T Glenn delink.net Internet Services

by Alex 09 Jun '05

09 Jun '05

Hello, I tried the v1.0 test of dovecot, because it should make the directories for me. I configured it and installed it. The old one is still there, but I shut it down to test the other version. When I start the new v1.0 test of dovecot i get the following message in my log: Jun 6 13:33:08 APOLLO dovecot: Dovecot v1.0-test72 starting up Jun 6 13:33:09 APOLLO dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting down Jun 6 13:33:09 APOLLO dovecot: auth(default): dovecot-auth: Fatal: USERDB environment is unset Jun 6 13:33:09 APOLLO dovecot: child 18610 (auth) returned error 89 What does that mean? How can I set this? Thanks in advance, Greetings, Alex

[Dovecot] blank line at the top of mbox
by Chris Barnes 08 Jun '05

08 Jun '05

On Sat, Mar 13, 2004, somone posted a note which read: It seems dovecop pop3 server sometimes inserts a blank line at the top of the mbox. It only happens for certain users not all. I'm not sure why it's doing that. Looking back into the mailing list, I saw the same post in Oct 6, 2003 but there was no reply to it. Is there a patch or fix that i can use to get around the blank line? I did not see any replies to this post. I am having the same issue... + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Chris Barnes AOL IM: CNBarnes chris(a)txbarnes.com (also MSN IM) Yahoo IM: chrisnbarnes

[Dovecot] maildirmake
by Renzetti Federico 08 Jun '05

08 Jun '05

It is possibile to call maildirmake at login-time? My final goal is to create maildir at login time (like courier-imapd) or at least to create .INBOX.Trash, .INBOX.Drafts, .INBOX.Sent dir for virtual user /home/vmail/domains/$virtual_domain/$virtual_user/ .... with already exsistant Maildir (created by postfix) Thanks in advance
