[Dovecot] Unrecognized event: kevent
by Dillon 08 May '06

08 May '06

Hey guys, I just subscribed to the list about 15 minutes ago so i apologize in advance if this is something that has already been discussed. I skimmed through the web archives and I didn't see anything. I'm running FreeBSD/amd64 and after upgrading from 1.0b3 to 1.0b7 I am experiencing the following May 8 13:18:22 loveturtle dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<turtle>, method=plain, rip=216.89.228.116, lip=216.91.90.11, TLS May 8 13:18:22 loveturtle dovecot: IMAP(turtle): Unrecognized event: kevent {.ident = 2, .filter = 0xfffffffe, .flags = 0x0000, .fflags = 0x00000000, .data = 0x00004000} May 8 13:18:22 loveturtle dovecot: child 32279 (imap) killed with signal 6 Immediately after this imap respawns and then prints this again and crashes. it happens about three or four times a second until i shut down dovecot. I reverted back to 1.0b3 and everything is happy again. Cheers, Dillon

[Dovecot] kevent error (1.0.b7) - Is this a FreeBSD-only problem?
by Odhiambo WASHINGTON 08 May '06

08 May '06

Hello everyone, The problem below has been reported, but I did not see any response! <cut> | | I'm also seeing this bug while testing the forthcoming 1.0.b7 FreeBSD | | port under 6.1-PRERELEASE: | | | | Info: imap-login: Login: user=<wibble>, method=PLAIN, rip=10.0.0.2, | | lip=10.0.0.2, TLS | | dovecot: Error: IMAP(isometry): Unrecognized event: kevent {.ident = | | 2, .filter = 0xfffffffe, .flags = 0x0001, .fflags = 0x00000000, .data | | = 0x00004000} | | dovecot: Error: child 7254 (imap) killed with signal 6 </cut> So, I am wondering if this a problem applying only to FreeBSD. When I downgrade to beta5, this problem is not there at all!! -Wash http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html DISCLAIMER: See http://www.wananchi.com/bms/terms.php -- +======================================================================+ |\ _,,,---,,_ | Odhiambo Washington <wash(a)wananchi.com> Zzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ | Wananchi Online Ltd. www.wananchi.com |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-'| Tel: +254 20 313985-9 +254 20 313922 '---''(_/--' `-'\_) | GSM: +254 722 743223 +254 733 744121 +======================================================================+ On-line, adj.: The idea that a human being should always be accessible to a computer.

[Dovecot] Problem with "INDEX" in default_mail_env, and pop3
by Andrea Dell'Amico 08 May '06

08 May '06

Hello all, I've a problem with maildir, pop3 and relocated indexes. My configuration is: default_mail_env = maildir:%h/Maildir:INDEX=/var/dovecot/index/% u:CONTROL=/var/dovecot/control/%u I created the "/var/dovecot/{index,control}/%u" directories, each one have rights 700 and the ownership is assigned to the user. When the pop clients connect, they fail with the error dovecot: POP3(<username>): mkdir(/var/dovecot/index/<username>/.INBOX) failed: Permission denied I'm using dovecot 1.0.beta7, authentication is pam. I'm using the following settings, too: valid_chroot_dirs = /home:/var/spool/mail:/var/dovecot/index:/var/dovecot/control (last two directories added when i changed the "default_mail_env" setting). Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? I need to move indexes in a file system without quota. Thanks in advance, andrea -- "Thinking meat!

[Dovecot] Maildir folder hierarchy question
by Richard Leszczynski 08 May '06

08 May '06

Hello all, I am trying to set up Dovecot to use a particular maildir folder hierarchy and have a problem that relates to the inbox. the folder hierarchy I want in /.../Maildir/ is: .inbox cur new tmp .imap.index.files-for-inbox .sent-items cur new tmp .imap.index.files-for-sent-items however the hierarchy that dovecot gives me is .inbox (unused) .INBOX .imap.index.files-for-.INBOX cur new tmp .sent-items cur new tmp .imap.index.files-for-.sent-items I would like to have the (cur,new,tmp) folders associated with the the .inbox placed in the .inbox directory, not alongside it in the main maildir directory. Dovecot appears to do this automatically for other folders. I'm not too bothered if the .inbox folder has to be capitalised. Is this possible? I suspect from reading the Dovecot Q&A that it may not be as the rootdir has special significance with IMAP but I would like confirmation. I've currently set my default_mail_env as: default_mail_env = maildir:/home/%u/mail/maildir:INBOX=/home/%u/mail/maildir/.inbox which I thought should do accomplish what I want but it has no apparent effect. I'm running SUSE 10.0 with Dovecot 0.99.14-5 (as installed by Yast). KMail and Outlook are being used to access Dovecot. Can anyone help? thank you, Richard L ___________________________________________________________ 24 FIFA World Cup tickets to be won with Yahoo! Mail http://uk.mail.yahoo.com

[Dovecot] CVS forked into development/stable branches
by Timo Sirainen 08 May '06

08 May '06

New branch created to CVS: branch_1_0 It's going to stabilize into v1.0 Dovecot, hopefully somewhat soon. I'll start adding new larger features into HEAD, so you might want to switch to branch_1_0 if you're currently using Dovecot from CVS. You can do this with: cvs up -r branch_1_0 The nightly snapshots are from branch_1_0, at least for now.

[Dovecot] different login_greeting for pop3 & imap?
by Geert Hendrickx 08 May '06

08 May '06

Hi, I have a tiny feature request for Dovecot: could it optionally have different login_greetings for pop3 and imap connections? e.g. I want it to say "Dovecot on pop.mycompany.com ready" on pop3 connections and "Dovecot on imap.mycompany.com ready" on imap connections. Would that be possible? TIA, Geert

[Dovecot] configuring dovecot-lda takes forever...
by Joseba Torre 08 May '06

08 May '06

Hi, I want to try dovecot-lda, but the ./configure doesn't seem to finish... I've followed the installation instructions: cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@dovecot.org:/home/cvs co dovecot-lda cd dovecot-lda/ ./autogen.sh ./configure --with-dovecot=../dovecot (dovecot source tree -from cvs- is in ../dovecot) Everything seems to go ok but the message config.status: creating Makefile never ends. The problem seems to be in this process: sed -f ./confstatn25334/subs-3.sed (i can attach the file if needed). Any hint? Aaaaaaaaaaagur.

[Dovecot] dovecot error: unrecognized event

If you're using the FreeBSD port: Go to /usr/ports/mail/dovecot Edit Makefile Find the line: .if !defined(WITHOUT_KQUEUE) Change it into: .if defined(WITH_KQUEUE) Then: make deinstall && make install Worked for me.
