Hello Community, My dovecot setup works fine with quotas and quota-warning. I have a questions though: when running the warning script, the example foundis it possible to pass the *quota size *as argument also? This would be useful with per-user quota. e.g. /some/script xx% username *xxxbytes* (order is not relevant of course) Thank you for your help. Cheers

dovecot 2.2.x listening on multiple interfaces
by David Mehler 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hello, I'm wondering if it's possible to get dovecot to listen on multiple interfaces without designating * for everything? I've got a machine with three interfaces going to three different networks. I'm not wanting to let dovecot listen on all interfaces * just two of them, standard ports. Is this doable? Thanks. Dave.

Upgrade from 2.0. to 2.2
by Jakob Curdes 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hello, we have a centos 6 server running dovecot 2.0 provided with the OS, currently 2.0.9. We would like to upgrade to the 2.2.19 package provided by the mailserver.guru repo. I read the upgrading docs for 2.1 and 2.2 and found the following issues: 2.0 - 2.1: - define namespace inbox or delete 15-mailboxes.conf (we do not "care about special use mailboxes") - plugins and UTF-8: we do not use one of the listed plugins - to allow mixed usernames set auth_username_format to "nothing" - solr … [View More]

welcome plugin
by David Mehler 06 Mar '17

06 Mar '17

Hello, Is anyone using the welcome plugin? I'm trying to utilize it to send a message when a user first logs in to the system, containing important information for them to know. The plugin loads, I don't have a configuration problem, but the message never gets sent. What can I provide to more easily troubleshoot this? Thanks. Dave.

[enhancement] fts-solr low performance
by azurit＠pobox.sk 05 Mar '17

05 Mar '17

Hi, we have activated fts-solr about a week ago and immediately started to experience really *low* performance with MOVE and EXPUNGE commands. After several days of googling, tcpdumping and straceing i was able to find and resolve the problem. We are using Dovecot 2.2.27 from Debian Jessie (jessie-backports), which is doing a soft commit in solr after every MOVE or EXPUNGE command - this behavior cannot be, currently, changed. The problem is that this was causing every MOVE/… [View More]

Hi, I am trying to get fts_solr working and my index server is available via HTTPS only. Dovecot is running on a Debian Jessie system and the Solr server has a letsencrypt certificate.

mdbox Inconsistency in map index
by bOnK 04 Mar '17

04 Mar '17

After a (power)crash two accounts have been corrupted. I tried to rescue things by running force-resync multiple times, but that didn't work out. Searching the archives, I found a recent suggestion (by Timo) to delete the index files, but I'm not sure which files to delete and what the consequences will be. When I deleted ``storage/dovecot.map.index'' in an unimportant account of my own, things only grew worse and I decided to delete the account and start fresh... Something I obviously … [View More]don't want to do with the other account as it belongs to a client with about 2.5G mails (856 m.* files), which we don't want to lose.

letsencrypt

Hello, I know some users here are using letsencrypt for their CA. If this is to off topic write me privately. I'm wanting letsencrypt to take over as my CA, replacing existing self signed certificates. I've got web working, a certificate for https sites and one for webmail as they have different names. What I'm now wanting to do is get letsencrypt going for my email setup, the smtp handled by postfix, but mail, and imap I believe are handled by dovecot. With the web it was easy just let … [View More]

I'm getting this list in digest mode, so it's possible by the time this gets to you, I will have repeated someone else' suggestion. In this situation, where your dovecot server lives on the same host as a web server (wembail?), and this web server is already going certificate renewal, then just change the certificate to use SNI extension and add all LS services that … [View More]
