[Dovecot] Help with Public Folder Configuration
by Joy 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

Dear All, I am trying to use Public Folder feature of dovecot but having some confusion with the configuration part as well as understanding the same. Here is output of doveconf -n which i think required to help me - mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = . type = private } namespace { list = children location = maildir:/var/mail/public prefix = Public. separator = . subscriptions = no type = public } plugin { acl = vfile:/usr/local/dovecot/dovecot-acl/acl } after making this configuration i also created subfolder inside /var/mail/public which looks like following:- mail1:~# less /var/mail/public/ dovecot-acl-list .Public/ mail1:~# less /var/mail/public/.Public/Maildir/ cur/ new/ tmp/ I have changed default permission to [ chown -R vmail:vmail /var/mail ] on base public folder. Now I am able to see the public folder from webmail as well as from thunderbird but no display for .Public folder. I am expecting that .Public folder will be visible to all but no one will be allowed to delete and make any change in that folder, I am also using global ACL in my configuration. Please let me know what i am doing wrong because not getting any error in log, Correct me if i am understanding wrong. Thanks

[Dovecot] Broken SELECT ""/EXAMINE ""
by Michael M. Slusarz 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

a EXAMINE INBOX [...] a OK [READ-ONLY] Select completed. a EXAMINE "" a NO Empty mailbox name. [Should be in authenticated mode with no active mailbox. But...] a STATUS INBOX (UIDVALIDITY) * STATUS "INBOX" (UIDVALIDITY 1255685337) a OK [CLIENTBUG] Status on selected mailbox completed. a UNSELECT a OK Unselect completed. a STATUS INBOX (UIDVALIDITY) * STATUS "INBOX" (UIDVALIDITY 1255685337) a OK Status completed. Seeing a whole bunch of the CLIENTBUGs in the logs since IMP uses imapproxy and relies on the proxy to unselect the mailbox when a LOGOUT is caught. Thus, when we rebuild the connection on the next page connection, we assume that there is no active mailbox (we actually use LIST-STATUS to do folder polling, but we still use STATUS when we only need data on a single mailbox). imapproxy *should* really be using UNSELECT, but that looks like a different (imapproxy) bug. michael

[Dovecot] 2.0 migration weirdnesses: logs and hang
by Kyle Wheeler 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

Hello, I'm testing out an upgrade to dovecot 2.0 from 1.2.11, and I've stumbled across two weirdnesses that I need help with. First, I'm only getting one log message: master: Info: Dovecot v2.0.0 starting up After that, while I can connect, log in, read mail, etc., no further log messages are created. I have log_path set to /dev/stderr, and no syslog_facility setting, so... what could be going wrong? Second, when I create a new mailbox and copy messages across namespaces, dovecot hangs. The mailbox is created and the messages are copied successfully, but dovecot simply stops responding. I can't even logout! I'm attaching my config file, if it helps. ~Kyle -- The effect of liberty to individuals is, that they may do what they please; we ought to see what it will please them to do, before we risk congratulations. -- Edmund Burke

[Dovecot] Some questions about Shared mailboxes
by Mihajlin Evgenij 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

Hi, again. 1. Can somebody explain me about dovecot's shared mailboxes? 2. What does it do while searching shared mailboxes (debug_log cannot explain it)? What files is it looking for? 3. Need i set dovecot-shared file into directory which are shared (if i want to have separate flags for separate users)? 4. Some errors are hard to understand. For example, # pwd /var/spool/vmail/domains/badmltd.dn.ua # ls -l drwx------ 3 mailnull mail 4096 Авг 27 09:24 admin drwx------ 3 mailnull mail 4096 Июн 3 10:51 exim drwx------ 3 mailnull mail 4096 Мар 26 15:08 iif drwx-w---- 3 mailnull mail 4096 Мар 11 15:53 jack drwx------ 2 mailnull mail 4096 Авг 27 09:28 Maildir drwx-w---- 3 mailnull mail 4096 Авг 27 09:25 test Why did dovecot create Maildir folder???

Hi all! I built dovecot-1.2.14 on Solaris 10 with gcc as well as cc and had reproducible crashes of imap-login: Aug 31 19:00:05 dovecot: Info: Dovecot v1.2.14 starting up Aug 31 19:00:10 imap-login: Info: Login: user=<someuser>, method=PLAIN, rip=<remote_ip>, lip=<local_ip> Aug 31 19:00:10 IMAP(someuser): Error: ld.so.1: imap: fatal: libgcc_s.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory Aug 31 19:00:10 dovecot: Error: child 26222 (imap) killed with signal 9 To solution was to set the environment variable LIBS to "-lgcc_s" before running configure. I think this is a bug as this library should be added automatically by configure to the Makefile when considered necessary. The same problem applies to Dovecot-2.0.1 also, which gave the same error message. regards, Stephan P.S. I found a similar message of this issue for version 1.0.rc27 but the suggestions didn't help (i.e. /usr/sfw/lib is already in the RPATH).
