[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.0.10 <- IMAP -> Nokia N95 ?
by Patrick 27 Feb '08

27 Feb '08

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has IMAP working between Dovecot 1.0.10 and a Nokia N95 (8GB version with firmware 15.x.x.x)? I've been trying to make it work using a default Dovecot config but the N95 just hangs when updating the folder list which has a bunch of nested folders. So I made a new test user and started from there. That works but the moment I add a folder in Evolution and a subfolder in that one then the N95 seems to fall apart. In wireshark all I see are a bunch of TCP transmissions over and over from the Dovecot server to the N95 and the N95 just sits there. I also configured Dovecot with a basic private namespace but that did not make any difference: namespace private { separator = / prefix = location = maildir:/var/spool/mail/%u/ inbox = yes } Any tips much appreciated. Thanks and regards, Patrick

[Dovecot] Multiple password schemes
by Jan van den Berg 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

Hi, right now I have default_pass_scheme = MD5-CRYPT in my dovecot-sql-auth.conf file. This works; however I noticed because of history a lot of my users still have a CRYPT password (not a MD5-CRYPT password). Now I get these errors: dovecot: Feb 26 13:08:17 Info: auth-worker(default): sql(***, *******): MD5-CRYPT(0lifant) != 'i3/S6ZswGSfbk' Any way to make Dovecot use another (fallback) password scheme when the default scheme isn't working? Cheers, Jan

[Dovecot] dovecot 1.0 + postfix quota warning
by Vusi 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

Hello, I need to know how to make a quota warning message from Dovecot or Postfix. I'm using Dovecot 1.0.rc15 and Postfix 2.3.3. I didn't installed the quota-warning patch cause i read that it doesn't work with dovecot filesystem quotas (as i'm using). What else can i use for this? I wanna warn users when they reach ..let's say 90% of their quota by sending an e-mail to their address. I'm using maildir format. Thanks, Radu ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your home page. http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs

[Dovecot] Crash on malformed ldap user_filter
by Anders 26 Feb '08

26 Feb '08

I did a little too much copy/paste, and ended up with an ldap config file containing a line of the form user_filter = user_filter = (&objectClass=... (with "user_filter =" repeated). This caused the auth process to segfault (v1.1.rc1). I suppose that I can reproduce this problem if more information is needed. Anders. 11:56:33 localhost dovecot: auth(default): ldap(a(a)invalid,127.0.0.1): user search: base=o=hosting,dc=invalid, dc=dk scope=subtree filter=user_filter = (&(objectClass=JammMailAccount)(mail=a@invalid)(accountActive=TRUE)(delete=FALSE)) fields=mail 11:56:33 localhost dovecot: child 21296 (auth) killed with signal 11 11:56:33 localhost dovecot: pop3-login: Internal login failure: user=<a@invalid>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured (addresses are edited)

[Dovecot] Redundant timers
by Anders 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

Hello. I am on an irrational crusade against unneeded timers (it started as a well-meaining power saving exercise), and I have now started removing polling in Dovecot. Attached is a patch with the work I did on this the other night. Would something like that be acceptable, or should I make it in a different way? There seems to be no one-shot timer support, right? Is there a Dovecot coding style document? (I did notice that there appears to be an 80 char width that I exceeded) Cheers, Anders

Is it true that if a user reaches quota limit he isn't be able to delete his messages to free his mailbox space?

[Dovecot] Authentication using multiple password schemes
by hever＠web.de 25 Feb '08

25 Feb '08

Hi there, I tried to patch the actual Dovecot 1.1 rc1 with the http://dovecot.org/patches/1.1/auth-multi-password.diff. The patch doesn't work for this version and I don't want to get an old version. Is this patch perhaps in the 1.1 rc1version included? I'm not sure because I don't really know how it's to use. I thought about returning some password fields from a database. If not could someone provide a working patch ? I need this patch because I'm going to provide NTLM and CRAM-MD5 POP/IMAP authentication because Outlook doesn't support CRAM-MD5 as non-plaintext authentication and I don't want store plaintext passwords. _______________________________________________________________________ Jetzt neu!
