[Dovecot] Some questions about Shared mailboxes
by Mihajlin Evgenij 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

Hi, again. 1. Can somebody explain me about dovecot's shared mailboxes? 2. What does it do while searching shared mailboxes (debug_log cannot explain it)? What files is it looking for? 3. Need i set dovecot-shared file into directory which are shared (if i want to have separate flags for separate users)? 4. Some errors are hard to understand. For example, # pwd /var/spool/vmail/domains/badmltd.dn.ua # ls -l drwx------ 3 mailnull mail 4096 Авг 27 09:24 admin drwx------ 3 mailnull mail 4096 Июн 3 10:51 exim drwx------ 3 mailnull mail 4096 Мар 26 15:08 iif drwx-w---- 3 mailnull mail 4096 Мар 11 15:53 jack drwx------ 2 mailnull mail 4096 Авг 27 09:28 Maildir drwx-w---- 3 mailnull mail 4096 Авг 27 09:25 test Why did dovecot create Maildir folder??? And what mean this lines at the end of debug.log.

Hi, first of all for forgive me for my english. I have several questions. 1. There are 2 user/passwd databases in my setup - ldap and mysql. when i login into one user with telnet 127.0.0.1 143 and share inbox to some users - records in dict-file apears? but if i delete some acls - records indict-file stays same. 2. I see in error.log such errors. can somebody explain what do dovecot list shared folder (what files is looking for, how it see variables %u and %%u, ...)

[Dovecot] (no subject)

Hi, I'd like to use Global ACLs to limit user's access to individual folders (e.g. read only). The dovecot-acl file limiting my user "test": user=test lr works fine when I put it into the user's mailbox /home/vmail/test/Maildir/.Records but gets ignored in /etc/dovecot/acls/Records Bellow is my dovecot -n output: # 2.0.0: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-194.11.1.el5 i686 CentOS release 5.5 (Final) auth_master_user_separator = * auth_mechanisms = plain ntlm disable_plaintext_auth = no mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_plugins = acl passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } plugin { acl = vfile:/etc/dovecot/acls } protocols = imap userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/vmail/%u allow_all_users=yes driver = static } protocol imap { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_acl } Any help will be appreciated.

[Dovecot] configure forgets to add -lgcc_s under Solaris 10
by Stephan Schulz 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

Hi all! I built dovecot-1.2.14 on Solaris 10 with gcc as well as cc and had reproducible crashes of imap-login: Aug 31 19:00:05 dovecot: Info: Dovecot v1.2.14 starting up Aug 31 19:00:10 imap-login: Info: Login: user=<someuser>, method=PLAIN, rip=<remote_ip>, lip=<local_ip> Aug 31 19:00:10 IMAP(someuser): Error: ld.so.1: imap: fatal: libgcc_s.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory Aug 31 19:00:10 dovecot: Error: child 26222 (imap) killed with signal 9 To solution was to set the environment variable LIBS to "-lgcc_s" before running configure. I think this is a bug as this library should be added automatically by configure to the Makefile when considered necessary. The same problem applies to Dovecot-2.0.1 also, which gave the same error message. regards, Stephan P.S. I found a similar message of this issue for version 1.0.rc27 but the suggestions didn't help (i.e. /usr/sfw/lib is already in the RPATH).

[Dovecot] Static passdb support?
by Brad Davidson 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

Timo, Do you have any plans to add a static passdb? I'm essentially emulating one with sqlite on my director - have it connect to /dev/null and return three static fields for all queries. Works fine, but it would seem a little cleaner to me if I could just do: passdb { driver = static args = password='' nopasswd='Y' proxy='Y' } -Brad

[Dovecot] doveadm quota get -u someone@ourdomains.com
by Jerrale G 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

With the expire running from mysql, on 2.0.1, we get no errors with: " doveadm expunge -A mailbox Trash savedbefore 7d" we have the mail_plugins defined differently for each protocol ({imap=quota,expire,imap_quota} {pop3=quota,expire} {lda=quota,expire,sieve}). When trying "doveadm quota get -u someone(a)ourdomains.com" the output is: "doveadm(root): Fatal: Unknown command 'quota', but plugin quota exists. Try to set mail_plugins=quota" When adding an additional, global mail_plugins=quota, we get: "Segmentation fault" Is there a specific, proper way beyond the way I read of 1.2.x for defining the plugins. Please let me know how and what plugins I should define Jerrale G -- Jerrale G. SC Senior Admin

Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot creating aditional folders?

Thank you again. Yes, you're on the way :-) Problem was that in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf was: mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%u/ instead of my new line: mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%u/ I think it's all right now. Well...not all right, I see no mails with a client (it's on the mailserver filesystem) but it's another history ;-) Thanks in advance! 2010/9/1 <spamvoll(a)googlemail.com>: > mail_location: maildir:/home/vmail/%u/ > > check if there is the correct home in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf > > maybe that is different, but not sure > > 2010/9/1 Pablo <boinker(a)gmail.com>: >> Thank you for your response. >> >> Yes, I know that I'm using maildir, but when we create an account, >> file sistem look likes: >> >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/new >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/cur >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user1/tmp >> >> My problem is that dovecot is creating additional folders: >> >> /home/vmail/user1/new >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user/cur >> /home/vmail/domain.com/user/tmp >> >> Mail are received in first directories, second ones are created but not used. >> >> What's the problem?
