[Dovecot] Running sieve manually
by Fredrik Staxeng 23 May '12

23 May '12

I would like use sieve to split up my saved mail into different folders. I have tried to find out how to do that, but failed. The IMAP server is dovecot 1.2.15 on ubuntu 11.04. The mail is stored in mbox folders. I have shell access. -- Fredrik Stax\"ang | rot13: sfgk(a)hcqngr.hh.fr This is all you need to know about vi: ESC : q ! RET

[Dovecot] Berkeley DB with Dovecot
by Jerry 23 May '12

23 May '12

I have a friend who is preparing to set up a small Postfix/Dovecot mail system. There are only approximately 25 users. He wants to use Berkeley DB in a similar fashion to the way Postfix does. I told him I do not believe Dovecot supports that. I could not find any documentation relating to it. 1) Does Dovecot support Berkeley DB? 2) Are their any plans to incorporate that feature into Dovecot? It seems like it could potentially be a very useful feature. I have used it myself when a full blown MySQL configuration seemed like over-kill on other small projects. -- Jerry ♔ Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.

[Dovecot] sieve
by upen 22 May '12

Hi, I'd like to keep all emails coming from alom-alert@anydomain and not forward those but rest of the emails will be kept and forwarded as well. I put following in the .dovecot.sieve if header :contains "Sender" "alom-alert@" { keep; if not header :contains "Sender" "alom-alert@" { redirect "my@emailid on server"; redirect "xyz(a)gmail.com"; redirect "abc(a)tbc.edu"; stop; } } Is this correct? Thanks, UG

[Dovecot] dovecot fts_lucene indexes not being updated
by Joe Beaubien 21 May '12

21 May '12

Hi everyone, I have a dovecot 2.1.6 setup with fts_lucene. The lucene indexes get created/updated fine when I do a manual search thru telnet. However, if I run a webapp that uses the php::imap_search function, the index never gets created/updated. I run indo the same problem with thunderbird and full-body search. Anyone has some insight into this? Regards, -Joe

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2 fails after correct login
by Frank Walter 20 May '12

20 May '12

Hello I installed dovecot 2.0.9 (and dovecot-mysql!) on my Ubuntu 12.04 LTS root-server to work together with Postfix 2.9.1-4 After some struggle, I got Postfix's auth working, using dovecot for smtp-authentification with mysql. But dovecot himself is not working properly. When I connect, after giving plaintext password I read the error in the client (I connect for debug reasons with a dos-box on windows): telnet example.org 110 +OK Dovecot ready.
