[Dovecot] setacl on complete mailbox
by Tobias Hachmer 12 Sep '11

12 Sep '11

Hi List, how can I grant a user full control on another mailbox (the complete mailbox with all folder and subfolders). With the setacl command I could do this but first I have to list all folders and then I have to do one setacl command for each folder. Is there a command to this in one line? Also for new created folders? Greetz, Tobias

[Dovecot] Quota fs (ignore mount)

>> Well .. I'm not entirely sure if the current behavior is good or not, but what you need to do to get it working is to add two quota roots.

[Dovecot] sieve and pattern matching
by David Newman 11 Sep '11

11 Sep '11

Dovecot 1.2.17 What is the sieve syntax for matching text somewhere in a subject line, but not at the beginning of the line? Background: Multiple machines each send a message with the subject of "<hostname> operations run" to a mail server. The <hostname> value is different for each sender. This sieve filter does not match any message: require ["fileinto","envelope","reject","vacation","imapflags","relational","co mparator-i;ascii-numeric","regex","notify"]; require ["body", "fileinto", "regex"]; # currentops reports if header :contains "Subject" ".* operations run" { fileinto "currentops"; stop; } However, a similar filter will match if, and only if, the string occurs at the beginning of the subject line. The various sieve help pages I've found suggest that pattern matching anywhere in the subject line should work, not just at the beginning. How to achieve this? TIA dn

[Dovecot] Annoying "feature" in dovecot/pidgeonhole - include depth limitation
by Mihai Moldovan 11 Sep '11

11 Sep '11

Hi all, I'm using dovecot 2.0.14 build on Debian. The maintainers obviously patch the dovecot source so that it uses the pidgeonhole sieve system. Today I ran into a very annoying issue: I created several sieve scripts and interlinked via the include command, only to find dovecot spewing this error message at me: SWREG Newsletter: line 14: error: cannot nest includes deeper than 10 levels. As far as I could see this limitation is hardcoded to a depth of 10 and can only be changed at compile time. Why is it in place? I understand that you CAN create loops via the include command and limiting the inclusion depth is a way to circumvent loops - but ten is a very low value and the fact that you can't change it via a config file or sorta is even worse. My "fix" so far has been ignoring this, i.e. not returning false. I'm pretty sure that's not the best way to do it but it seems to be working so far. I'd really like to hear your opinion on this issue. Best regards, Mihai **

[Dovecot] Sieve, before script - Can it include "personal" scripts?
by Steve Fatula 11 Sep '11

11 Sep '11

Using sieve_before, can the script it references include a file from the personal space? I want to set some parameters (by user using the variables extension) there to control what the before script does, so, every user would have the file in their personal include space. If not, is there another way? Can the sieve_before and sieve_global_path be set from userdb extra fields?

Hi list, currently I use dovecot v1.2.15 with maildir++ mailboxes. (Debian Squeeze) I want to set up a different server with dovecot v2, also maildir++ mailboxes.

[Dovecot] debug user's message retrieval
by Костырев Александр Алекс еевич 10 Sep '11

10 Sep '11

Hi there! Is there any method to log user's activity with pop3 service? I'll try to explain situation: In maillog I saw that my dovecot lmtp saved four letters in user's mailbox. After a while I got a call from that user saying that he received nothing. Is there any method to log that that user RETR every single letter, maybe with full names of letter's id or something like that?
