[Dovecot] VZW Blackberry BIS problems?
by B. Cook 22 Oct '09

22 Oct '09

Ever since Columbus day things have been strange with my two dovecot servers, according to my Blackberry users. We do not have a BES just the standard BIS that comes with a personal account. Several people have told me that since that Monday that they get occasional duplicate copies of messages which only appear singularly in their Maildir inboxes. I myself even called VZW and got transferred to RIM themselves where they 'reset' my account; (same as me going into the BIS server and … [View More]deleting and adding again) only to have the same thing happen; again occasionally.. Below is relevant dovecot info.. -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 164064 Oct 1 17:16 /usr/local/sbin/dovecot (date it was built; prior to any problems.. *whew*) ;) 1 # 1.2.4: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf 2 # OS: FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p3 i386 3 ssl_cert_file: /usr/local/etc/lighttpd/ssl/mail.poughkeepsieschools.org.pem 4 ssl_key_file: /usr/local/etc/lighttpd/ssl/mail.poughkeepsieschools.org.pem 5 disable_plaintext_auth: no 6 verbose_ssl: yes 7 login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login 8 login_executable: /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login 9 login_greeting: mail.poughkeepsieschools.org OK 10 first_valid_uid: 89 11 last_valid_uid: 89 12 first_valid_gid: 89 13 last_valid_gid: 89 14 maildir_copy_preserve_filename: yes 15 mail_plugins: quota imap_quota 16 imap_client_workarounds: delay-newmail outlook-idle tb-extra-mailbox-sep 17 auth default: 18 mechanisms: plain login 19 user: vpopmail 20 passdb: 21 driver: vpopmail 22 userdb: 23 driver: vpopmail 24 socket: 25 type: listen 26 client: 27 path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-client 28 mode: 438 29 plugin: 30 quota: maildir:User quota 31 expire: Trash 7 Spam 30 Now what does not show here is something that I put in that it looked like it was supposed to help but didn't.. mailbox_idle_check_interval = 30 after looking around at other people complaining about BIS and possible dovecot issues it seemed that that entry was the 'magic' the BIS was missing; except I never had it and never had troubles. I'm assuming this is a BIS issue of some sort, but I can't tell. After looking on the wiki I didn't see anything that says "BIS users look here for tips.. " So I'm assuming there aren't any; I think it should just work with the IMAP server.. Any help would be appreciated as everyone thinks this is 'our problem' and "if we had an exchange server we wouldn't be having these problems.." Thanks in advance.. [View Less]

Hi All I'm trying to implement public folders. My dovecot -n readout is at the bottom.

[Dovecot] NFS random redirects
by Thomas Hummel 22 Oct '09

22 Oct '09

Hello, Dovecot documentation states that the "random redirects to multiple servers" NFS solution is to be avoided and I'm investigation the actual risks of it and a way to put it to test. I'm running dovecot-1.2.6 with Maildir (indexes, mailboxes and control files are all on NFS) and I'm using procmail instead of deliver as the LDA. 1. Documentation says : "Dovecot locks the maildir while doing modifications to it or while looking for new messages in it" and then mention the "… [View More]

[Dovecot] deliver+sieve: Destination address (-a) parsing changes
by Frank Behrens 21 Oct '09

21 Oct '09

When I upgraded my old, long running dovecot 1.1 to newer dovecot-1.2.4 + doevecot-sieve- 0.1.12 I observed a change in destination address (-a) parsing. Old behaviour: When Timo introduced this feature (http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-September/025813.html) it was possible to hand over only the detail part. In my sendmail configuration I used "-a +$h", where $h contains the detail part and may be empty. By default sendmail can call the delivery agent with the following information: … [View More]
