What namespace config do you have? I got more info from the user that had this problem. He reported that he was was setting up a new Email client (Nexus4 Android) and he sent me a screenshot of his setup. Everything look ordinary except perhaps the IMAP prefix set to "mail". My setup documents inform users to leave it blank, but sometimes they use "mail/", a holdover from the uw-imapd days. I provide some aliases for that, but I don't know what would happen if you leave off the trailing "/". My namespace settings as reported by dovecot -n: namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / } (The following are aliases to keep backward compatibility) namespace { alias_for = hidden = yes list = no location = prefix = / separator = / } namespace { alias_for = hidden = yes list = no location = prefix = mail/ separator = / } namespace { alias_for = hidden = yes list = no location = prefix = ~/mail/ separator = / } namespace { alias_for = hidden = yes list = no location = prefix = ~%u/mail/ separator = / } I've asked the user to change his prefix, and he'll probably report back.

[Dovecot] Is there any way to mask or hide the INBOX label for Dovecot 1.2.x Shared Mailboxes?
by Jason Discount 13 Feb '13

13 Feb '13

Hello, I'm setting up a new Dovecot sever to replace an old Cyrus server, and need to keep things as consistent as possible. I have a couple local accounts, like junkmail and notjunkmail that users get shared access to, and can drop things in to train sa-update. However, when users share over junkmail's inbox, it's displayed in the hierarchy: • Other Users • junkmail • INBOX Is there any way to get junkmail's INBOX to just show up at Other Users/junkmail and not require that extra depth? • Other Users • junkmail I'm running Debian Squeeze and the standard dovecot package available therein: > # uname -a > Linux internet.digitalquay.com.au 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 #1 SMP Sun Sep 23 13:49:30 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux > #dovecot --version > 1.2.15 I'm running in a configuration where all mail is owned by the vmail user, due to the impression I'm under, that it's a better way if there is to be shared mailboxes.

[Dovecot] Marking messages read / retaining date with Sieve
by Bret Martin 13 Feb '13

13 Feb '13

I'm trying to mark several hundred thousand messages as read as they are delivered via dovecot-lda(1). (I'm importing some mail from another format for migration purposes.) I've been able to do this with Sieve, but it has the side effect that the messages' received and saved dates are set to the current date, and Apple Mail (at least) uses one of these to display the message date. Without the Sieve filter in place, the dates are retained based on the From_ line as I would like. Does anyone know of any way I can either - retain the date when delivering using Sieve? - systematically mark a specific set of messages as read *after* delivery instead, perhaps with doveadm(1)? (even marking *everything* read would work in this particular case. I couldn't find any way to set flags with doveadm) Thanks, --Bret

[Dovecot] POLL: v2.2 to allow one mail over quota?
by Timo Sirainen 12 Feb '13

12 Feb '13

Currently if user is 1MB under quota and someone tries to deliver mail that is over 1MB, Dovecot rejects the mail. But smaller mails aren't rejected probably for days. So user might not even realize that they didn't receive one of the mails. Also having a user "almost over quota" is a rather strange state I think. So what do you think about v2.2 allowing delivery of one last mail even if it brings the user over quota? Except add a limit that if the message size is as much as the user's entire quota limit it wouldn't be added (or 50% or ..?). Also IMAP wouldn't allow this, since user would get an error anyway. I could make this also optional, but if nobody really wants to keep the old behavior there's really no point in adding the option.

[Dovecot] Keyword Flags
by David Woodfall 11 Feb '13

11 Feb '13

I mostly use Mutt to read mail but today I fired up Thunderbird. I have a shell script that looks for new mail, which looks for files in cur/ and new/ ending with the server hostname or a comma. When I fired up TB it seems that all new mail has been given a flag of ,a which I gather means it matches a keyword. My questions are: How did this happen? Did TB do something strange to my mail when it fetched headers? If I change my search parameters to ',[a-z]' will this only catch new mail?

[Dovecot] Disabling auth caching just from one passdb
by Angel L. Mateo 11 Feb '13

11 Feb '13

Hello, I'm using various password databases (one of them is a ldap database, which is the used for users connecting with email clients, and the other with pam, using a pam module integrated with our SSO that is used from our webmail). I would like to disable password caching in my pam database (because 'passwords' provided by our SSO are single use tokens, so caching them has no benefit), but not in the ldap. As far as I know, auth_cache_size is the option to enable caching in all databases. But, is there any option I could use to disable it in a specific password database? -- Angel L.

Re: [Dovecot] Imap process crash: assertion failed: (full_fs_access)

Any guess at what would cause this? Feb 7 21:20:53 server dovecot: imap(user): Panic: file mailbox-list-fs-iter.c: line 447 (fs_list_get_roots): assertion failed: (full_fs_access) (Sorry, no core dump) According to my logs, this user couldn't start an IMAP session for a 2 hour stretch for hundreds of connections. Then the problem seemed to have went away. I logged back as that user using a master password, but couldn't recreate this problem. The backtrace is just hex numbers (stripped executables) and I didn't drop privileges, so it refused to drop core, so that's no help. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>
