Hello! When I migrans mailbox from one server to the second file subscribe "/" is replaced by a point "." the first file server subscription: & BB4EMQRJBDgENQ-& BD8EMAQ, BDoEOA-/firstname.secondname after migration to the second server: & BB4EMQRJBDgENQ-& BD8EMAQ, BDoEOA-.firstname.secondname on the second server before migration mailbox was not. After fixing the subscription file on the second server sync two mailboxes passes without problems. >From the outside for my English, I use Google Translator

[Dovecot] Dsync ignores INBOX when converting from mbox to maildir
by Jan Vítek 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

Hi, I am trying to convert email box in mbox format to maildir++. It converts all folders except INBOX. For example: dsync -D -v -f -u 'info(a)example.org' mirror 'maildir:~/Maildir' prints: dsync(info(a)example.org): Info: Sport: only in source So it converts Sport folder, but INBOX folder is ignored. dovecot.conf contains: mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u File /var/mail/info(a)example.org contains email messages. Dovecot is in version v2.0.rc3. Do you have any advice what am I doing wrong? -- Kind Regards Jan Vítek ČESKÝ WEBHOSTING s.r.o. Tel: +420 605 25 25 25 E-mail: info(a)cweb.cz http://www.cweb.cz

[Dovecot] Updating Database records from a Plugin
by John O'Brien 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

Guys, In the file /etc/dovecot-pgsql.conf I have driver = pgsql connect = host=localhost dbname=ivr.db user=ivr password=passwd default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = SELECT password FROM embedded_device WHERE username='%u' user_query = SELECT home, uid, gid FROM embedded_device WHERE username='%u' In the table embedded_device there is a field called PIN. My plugin has the "user" and the "pin_value". What I want to do from the plugin is the following: UPDATE embedded_device SET PIN=pin_value WHERE username=user; Questions: Is there a way to locate the exiting database open connection? Is there a way to use the dovecot sql API to set the value of field? I have been looking for examples and have not been very successful. Regards, John

[Dovecot] [2.0] Experience in production environment
by Luigi Rosa 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I decided to put 2.0-pre3 in a couple of production environments with about 50 users each. The configuration is what I consider my own standard: Dovecot, Postfix with authentication via Dovecot, postfixadmin, maildir, userbase on MySQL. The new configuration schema is very flexible and much better than the "monolithic" file. The configuration conversion utility is very useful. No issue to report, the logfile is clean. The only difference between 2.0 and the previous version is the RIM server. Some users have configured their blackberry to synchronize the phone with their mailbox in IMAP. Previously RIM kept a connection open, after upgrading to 2.0, RIM opens a connection and then closes it. This is not an issue, because the synchronization is ok, and I think that is better this way than to keep an oper socket. Just for curiosity: it happens only to me and why this happens?

[Dovecot] Plugin for XFS project quota
by Wessel Dankers 02 Aug '10

02 Aug '10

Hi, I just finished writing a small plugin that reports XFS project quota in de IMAP component of Dovecot (1.2, currently). It was written to fill the needs of our organization but someone else might find this useful as well. In its current form it's not suitable for inclusion in the generic quota backend (see “Drawbacks”). Features: - every mailbox/folder can have its own project ID; - every project ID is mapped to a quota “root”; - caching to ensure reasonable performance; - Debian APT repository available; - LGPL 3 (just like Dovecot itself). Drawbacks: - quota are readonly, you'll have to manage limits and project assignment yourself; - IMAP only: I tried to write a generic quota backend, but the current setup of the quota plugin does not really seem to permit this; - extremely Linux-specific: assumes devices to be available under /dev/block/<maj>:<min> (this is valid for at least Debian lenny); - received only very limited testing; - no documentation whatsoever. How to get it: Sources: https://www.non-gnu.uvt.nl/pub/dovecot-prjquota/ Subversion: https://svn.non-gnu.uvt.nl/uvt-dev/trunk/sources/dovecot-prjquota/ Debian (amd64): deb http://non-gnu.uvt.nl/debian lenny dovecot-prjquota deb-src http://non-gnu.uvt.nl/debian lenny dovecot-prjquota Configuration: protocol imap { ... mail_plugins = imap_prjquota ... } Setting up XFS project quota in general: http://blogs.cae.tntech.edu/mwr/2009/09/01/setting-up-project-quotas-under-… cheers, -- Wessel Dankers <wsl(a)fruit.je> “Sysadmins busy fighting SPAM.”
