In Postfix+Postfixadmin+Dovecot+SASL+MySQL case what is the best and compact MySQL database structure for storing all configuration? What will you suggest me guys? I've already installed postfixadmin and I'm confusing (actually my experience is not enough) extending and organizing my database for postfix+dovecot. Please give me some quick tips. -- Best regards, Erdenebat Guntomor/ /mailto:RkLogin@gmail.com

[Dovecot] Dovecot Convert
by Marc Perkel 12 Mar '07

Trying to figure out how to convert an existing mbox system to maildir Below is my dovecot.conf file. Tried adding this at the bottom of the file and nothing happens. plugin { convert_mail = mbox:/vhome/%d/home/%n:INBOX=/vhome/%d/home/%n/INBOX convert_skip_broken_mailboxes=yes } What am I doing wrong? ## Dovecot 1.0 configuration file # '#' character and everything after it is treated as comments.

If you want to use either of these explicitly, put the # value inside quotes, eg.: key = "# char and trailing whitespace " # Default values are shown after each value, it's not required to uncomment # any of the lines.

The only difference # between them is how Dovecot announces them to client via NAMESPACE # extension. Shared namespaces are meant for user-owned mailboxes which are # shared to other users, while public namespaces are for more globally # accessible mailboxes. # # REMEMBER: If you add any namespaces, the default namespace must be added # explicitly, ie. default_mail_env does nothing unless you have a namespace # without a location setting. Default namespace is simply done by having a # namespace with empty prefix. #namespace private { # Hierarchy separator to use. You should use the same separator for all # namespaces or some clients get confused. '/' is usually a good one. #separator = / # Prefix required to access this namespace. This needs to be different for # all namespaces. For example "Public/". #prefix = # Physical location of the mailbox. This is in same format as # default_mail_env, which is also the default for it. #location = # There can be only one INBOX, and this setting defines which namespace # has it. #inbox = yes # If namespace is hidden, it's not advertised to clients via NAMESPACE # extension or shown in LIST replies. This is mostly useful when converting # from another server with different namespaces which you want to depricate # but still keep working.

Some do not benefit from them at all. Caching more # than necessary generates useless disk I/O, so you don't want to do that # either. # # Dovecot attempts to automatically figure out what client wants and it keeps # only that. However the first few times a mailbox is opened, Dovecot hasn't # yet figured out what client needs, so it may not perform optimally. If you # know what fields the majority of your clients need, it may be useful to set # these fields by hand. If client doesn't actually use them, Dovecot will # eventually drop them. # # Usually you should just leave this field alone. The potential benefits are # typically unnoticeable. #mail_cache_fields = # Space-separated list of fields that Dovecot should never save to cache file. # Useful if you want to save disk space at the cost of more I/O when the fields # needed. #mail_never_cache_fields = # Like mailbox_check_interval, but used for IDLE command. #mailbox_idle_check_interval = 30 # Allow full filesystem access to clients. There's no access checks other than # what the operating system does for the active UID/GID. It works with both # maildir and mboxes, allowing you to prefix mailboxes names with eg. /path/ # or ~user/. #mail_full_filesystem_access = no # Maximum allowed length for mail keyword name. It's only forced when trying # to create new keywords. #mail_max_keyword_length = 50 # Save mails with CR+LF instead of plain LF. This makes sending those mails # take less CPU, especially with sendfile() syscall with Linux and FreeBSD. # But it also creates a bit more disk I/O which may just make it slower. #mail_save_crlf = no # Use mmap() instead of read() to read mail files. read() seems to be a bit # faster with my Linux/x86 and it's better with NFS, so that's the default. # Note that OpenBSD 3.3 and older don't work right with mail_read_mmaped = yes. #mail_read_mmaped = no # Don't use mmap() at all. This is required if you store indexes in remote # filesystems (NFS or clustered filesystem). #mmap_disable = no # Don't write() to mmaped files. This is required for some operating systems # which use separate caches for them, such as OpenBSD. #mmap_no_write = no # Locking method for index files. Alternatives are fcntl, flock and dotlock. # Dotlocking uses some tricks which may create more disk I/O than other locking # methods. #lock_method = fcntl # By default LIST command returns all entries in maildir beginning with dot. # Enabling this option makes Dovecot return only entries which are directories. # This is done by stat()ing each entry, so it causes more disk I/O. # (For systems setting struct dirent->d_type, this check is free and it's # done always regardless of this setting) #maildir_stat_dirs = no # Copy mail to another folders using hard links. This is much faster than # actually copying the file. This is problematic only if something modifies # the mail in one folder but doesn't want it modified in the others.

There's four available: # dotlock: Create <mailbox>.lock file. This is the oldest and most NFS-safe # solution.

Works with NFS too if lockd is used. # flock : May not exist in all systems. Doesn't work with NFS. # lockf : May not exist in all systems. Doesn't work with NFS. # # You can use multiple locking methods; if you do the order they're declared # in is important to avoid deadlocks if other MTAs/MUAs are using multiple # locking methods as well. Some operating systems don't allow using some of # them simultaneously. #mbox_read_locks = fcntl #mbox_write_locks = dotlock fcntl # Maximum time in seconds to wait for lock (all of them) before aborting. #mbox_lock_timeout = 300 # If dotlock exists but the mailbox isn't modified in any way, override the # lock file after this many seconds. #mbox_dotlock_change_timeout = 30 # When mbox changes unexpectedly we have to fully read it to find out what # changed. If the mbox is large this can take a long time. Since the change # is usually just a newly appended mail, it'd be faster to simply read the # new mails. If this setting is enabled, Dovecot does this but still safely # fallbacks to re-reading the whole mbox file whenever something in mbox isn't # how it's expected to be. The only real downside to this setting is that if # some other MUA changes message flags, Dovecot doesn't notice it immediately. # Note that a full sync is done with SELECT, EXAMINE, EXPUNGE and CHECK # commands. #mbox_dirty_syncs = yes # Like mbox_dirty_syncs, but don't do full syncs even with SELECT, EXAMINE, # EXPUNGE or CHECK commands. If this is set, mbox_dirty_syncs is ignored. #mbox_very_dirty_syncs = no # Delay writing mbox headers until doing a full write sync (EXPUNGE and CHECK # commands and when closing the mailbox).

[Dovecot] Time moving backwards error
by Matthew Ward 12 Mar '07

12 Mar '07

I'm currently running a VPS which has the NTP daemon running on neither my CentOS installation nor on the hardware node itself, so as far as I am aware the server time shouldn't be being resynched by anything, and the time should be consistent. However, since r25 my Dovecot service is complaining that time is moving backwards (was being killed only a few moments after being started with r25, same problems as Emmett with r26) quite consistently, and always by one second. Could this simply be an error or something within Dovecot itself, as to have nothing physically updating the system time on my machine at all and to have Dovecot complaining that it's being resynched by one second all the time seems a bit odd?

[Dovecot] Upgrade from 0.99 to 1.0
by Láďa 11 Mar '07

11 Mar '07

Hi, I have just noticed that one our box is still running ancient 0.99 version (shame on me). Is there anything what I have to take care about during update? I am completely aware about changes in configuration files so my question is mainly about existing maildirs. Láďa

[Dovecot] separate partition for index/uidlist
by Daniel 11 Mar '07

11 Mar '07

Hi! What's a safe place for the separate index and uidlist files? I am planning to configure Quota/FS. Can they reside under dovecot's basedir? Is this a good idea? Does it have any significance where I put those files? Thanks, Daniel
