(Like Apache VirtualHosts) I doubt it; the virtual name is not part of the IMAP protocol as it is in HTTP. The IMAP server is not told which hostname was mapped to its IP. You'll either have to add the @domain, or perhaps multi-home your host, remap one of your domains to the new IP, and add another running instance of dovecot to listen on that interface.

[Dovecot] Full text search in attachments
by Mailing 20 Aug '12

20 Aug '12

Hello, is it possible to use the Solr full text search plugin for indexing mail attachments? I found a very old patch and some hints regarding a fts_decoder script that I don't understand. Making Solr indexing PDF or Office files shouldn't be that difficult, but how can I enable the plugin to transfer the attachments to Solr? Best regards, Sebastian

[Dovecot] case insensitive acl
by Andre Rodier 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

Hello, I have notice that when I use ACL, the name of the user in the dovec-acl-list file is case sensitive. Because I use LDAP, the name of the users is case insensitive. Would it be possible to have an option in Dovecot, to ignore the case of the ACL ? This would be useful with some ACL managers, like roundcube ACL plugin, that uses an LDAP query to autocomplete the user name for the ACL. Kind regards, André

[Dovecot] Mdbox corruption
by 3.listas＠adminlinux.com.br 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

Hi, I have a "ubuntu10.04 + ext4-filesystem + dovecot-2.0.13 +mdbox" configuration in my server. It works fine with ~50k accounts. Recently happened a filesystem corruption in a device of StMailLocation and I fix with fsck.ext4. After this crash, one account began to show access timeout and errors like this on force-resync: # doveadm force-resync -u account INBOX doveadm(account): Warning: mdbox /path-to-mdbox/storage: rebuilding indexes doveadm(account): Error: Corrupted dbox file /path-to-mdbox/storage/m.83 (around offset=16): EOF reading msg header (got 0/30 bytes) doveadm(account): Warning: dbox: Copy of the broken file saved to /path-to-mdbox/storage/m.83.broken doveadm(account): Error: Corrupted dbox file /path-to-mdbox/storage/m.83 (around offset=16): EOF reading msg header (got 0/30 bytes) doveadm(account): Error: mdbox rebuild: Failed to fix file /path-to-mdbox/storage/m.83 doveadm(account): Error: Corrupted dbox file /path-to-mdbox/storage/m.92 (around offset=7): Invalid dbox version ... Should I worry about the m.X.broken files ? How I fix these broken mdboxes ? Thanks. -- Thiago Henrique adminlinux.com.br

[Dovecot] dsync \noselect on INBOX.INBOX skips sync of INBOX
by Nikolai Schupbach 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

Hi Timo, We have encountered an issue today with a number of migrations. Some customers have mailboxes on the source IMAP server that look like this: 3 LIST "" * * LIST () "." "INBOX" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Statements" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Draft" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Drafts" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Invoices" * LIST (\Noselect) "." "INBOX.INBOX" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Jokes" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Payslips" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Personal" When we run dsync it skips the INBOX presumably because of the Noselect on INBOX.INBOX. and the "imapc_list_prefix = INBOX" setting. Regards, Nikolai.

[Dovecot] maildir to sdbox offline conversion
by _ET_ 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

Hi all. I've just installed dovecot v2.1 in a multihomed, multiinstance setup, It took me two days to convert the old v1.1 configs, now everything works like charm! But. :) I have several maildir mailboxes, I decided to use the sdbox storage type instead. I ran into difficoulties using the dsync util. My virtual users are in an OpenLDAP DB on a differnet machine, and I do not have access to the database (I can authenticate the users from ldap, but cannot change or see anything) So it's not easy to do an "online" conversion and follow the instructions at dsync's wiki. Do you know a way how to simply tell dsync or a similar util the following dsync convert maildir:/data/vmail/domain/user sdbox:/newdata/vmail/domain/user without touching the ldap database, only the files on the disk. I can run this command as root on this mail server, if it is needed, I can run the command for each and every maildir. That's not a problem. any ideas, how this wouléd be the simpliest? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/maildir-to-sdbox-offline-conversion-tp34274589p342745… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Dsync and SIS
by Alex Crow 19 Aug '12

19 Aug '12

Hi all, Just to clarify, if we back up a dovecot 2 server with SIS for attachments and ALT storage by rsyncing it (including the SIS and ALT storage) to a remote server when it's idle (or at least almost entirely so), and run dovecot on that machine, would it seem feasible to restore backups from that server by using dysnc - specifically for the scenario where someone accidentally deletes emails/folders etc.? I've seen queries about SIS before but nothing specifically about this scenario. Cheers Alex -- This message is intended only for the addressee and may contain confidential information.
