This is not a dovecot problem. Please do not send replies only to me but instead to the appropriate mailing list. I would try the Postfix mailing list for starters. -- Sahil Tandon <sahil(a)tandon.net>

It's not clear from your response that you understand why it's failing. It would seem clear that postfix doesn't see this as a local domain. Instead, it thinks you're trying to relay to somewhere else. Check your virtual_mailbox_domains file (or database) and make sure it has an entry for the new domain.

Does the log show that the incoming messages are actually received? If not, it sounds like you're missing an MX record in DNS. If you are seeing the message come in, what does the log say it did with it? - Jon On Nov 2, 2008, at 1:45 PM, mailing wrote: > > I am using Postfix and /var/logs/mail.log does not have any errors > when > sending to lemcoe.com > > Thanks for quick response. > > On Sun, 2 Nov 2008 13:41:31 -0700, Jon Fullmer <jon(a)jonfullmer.com> > wrote: >> What are you using as your MTA (i.e., which server is listening for >> the incoming SMTP message)?

[Dovecot] Issue with domains
by David M Lemcoe Jr. 02 Nov '08

I am running Dovecot 1.0.10 and have it working great on ender.ath.cx (my free DynDNS.com subdomain), but recently I registered lemcoe.com and pointed it to the same IP address as ender.ath.cx. The problem is, only e-mail sent to the @ender.ath.cx works. If it is send it to @lemcoe.com, I don't know where it goes. I get no errors either. How can I get Dovecot to recognize both domains? TIA.

[Dovecot] v1.2.alpha1 released
by Timo Sirainen 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/alpha/dovecot-1.2.alpha1.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/alpha/dovecot-1.2.alpha1.tar.gz.sig This is the only v1.2.alpha announcement I'm going to send to dovecot-news list. Next announcement will be for either v1.2.beta1 or v1.2.rc1. I'm hoping that v1.2 stabilizes pretty soon. There are no huge changes like there were in 0.99->1.0 or 1.0->1.1, so most of the bugs are probably related to new features. I'm already running v1.2 myself and it's gone through heavy stress testing with my imaptest tool, so I'm expecting it to be stable enough for real world testing with not-all-that-important servers. It's safe to jump between v1.1 and v1.2 at any time or even have them concurrently accessing the same mailboxes. Dovecot v1.2 has a lot of new IMAP extensions implemented. The biggest change comes from CONDSTORE extension which adds a new concept of "modification sequences" (modseq for short). Each message has a modseq that increases whenever a flag is changed or when the message is expunged. The client can keep track of the highest seen modseq and request only changes done since the modseq. See QRESYNC (RFC 5162) for more information. Dovecot starts keeping track of the modseqs only when the first "CONDSTORE/QRESYNC enabling command" is executed. Before that no disk space is used for modseqs. When modseqs are enabled dovecot.index file uses 8 bytes per message more space. Other implemented IMAP extensions are: ESEARCH, SEARCHRES, WITHIN, ID and CONTEXT=SEARCH. Added thread indexes to optimize IMAP THREAD command. Only the first half of threading is currently optimized, the rest will hopefully follow later. Added a non-standard X-REFERENCES2 threading algorithm where threads are sorted by their latest message instead of the thread root message. There is also no base subject merging. This may be renamed and become part of SEARCH=INTHREAD extension some day. SEARCH=INTHREAD is still a draft, but the INTHREAD search key is already implemented by Dovecot v1.2. This is mostly useful with virtual mailboxes. Virtual mailboxes: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual Then there are also some internal API changes which will make some things easier. For example lib-storage now allows handling multiple different users at the same time.

[Dovecot] pam_dovecotpw anybody?
by Steinar Bang 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

Samba has pam_smbpass which is a PAM module that hooks into password changing, and changes the users' samba password (presumably used for NTLM auth?), when the users change their ordinary unix/linux password. http://gitweb.samba.org/?p=samba.git;a=tree;f=source3/pam_smbpass;h=c230a1b… It shouldn't bee too hard to take the code from here, combine it with dovecotpw and create a PAM module that changes the dovecot password in a way that can be used for cram-md5. Ideally it should read the /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf (whereever it is), and find the path of the passwd-file and use that. Has anyone else looked into doing something like this?

What is the best way to do a (server-side) backup of all mail in a user's mail?
