yep, originally I want Dovecot to behave exactly the same like our Cyrus environment regarding namespaces, in preparation of a migration :) The first login shows Dovecot output, second show Cyrus, for comparison...

[Dovecot] Squirrelmail + Dovecot + Maildir
by Vicki Stanfield 21 Dec '07

21 Dec '07

I have been struggling with getting my Fedora 7 box set up to use dovecot with Squirrelmail and Maildir. It works correctly with the exception of writing outgoing mail to the right folder (.Sent) or drafts (.Drafts). If I send a mail with Mutt, it writes the mail to the right place, so it has to be squirrelmail config or dovecot config. I want to use .Sent for sent-mail (~user/Maildir/.Sent) and .Drafts for drafts (~user/Maildir/.Drafts). Here is what I see in /etc/squirrelmail/config.php $optional_delimiter = '.'; [snip] $default_folder_prefix = ''; $trash_folder = 'Trash'; $sent_folder = 'Sent'; $draft_folder = 'Drafts'; $default_move_to_trash = true; $default_move_to_sent = true; $default_save_as_draft = true; The error in the browser is: * ERROR : Bad or malformed request.* Server responded: {830} BAD Error in IMAP command : Unknown command. and in the logs I see this: Dec 18 09:41:56 opus postfix/smtpd[12747]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1] Dec 18 09:41:56 opus postfix/smtpd[12747]: 4CB7329B00B2: client=localhost[127.0.0.1] Dec 18 09:41:56 opus postfix/cleanup[12750]: 4CB7329B00B2: message-id=<51150.127.0.1.1.1197988916.squirrel(a)127.0.1.1> Dec 18 09:41:56 opus postfix/qmgr[2650]: 4CB7329B00B2: from=<vic(a)thepenguin.net>, size=1015, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Dec 18 09:41:56 opus postfix/smtpd[12747]: disconnect from localhost[127.0.0.1] Dec 18 09:41:56 opus dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<vic>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:127.0.1.1, lip=::ffff:127.0.1.1, secured Dec 18 09:41:56 opus dovecot: IMAP(vic): Disconnected: Too many invalid IMAP commands.

[Dovecot] namespace problem / 1.1beta11
by ja nein 21 Dec '07

21 Dec '07

Hi all, actually I got a problem with the namespaces in dovecot 1.1 beta11. It occured after purging index files and resynch via imapsync. Dovecot complains about "Unknown namespace", though it worked with versions before. I cannot comfirm for 1.1beta10, but I surely know 1.1beta9 worked with these settings. Example: From Folder [INBOX/Trash] To Folder [___________] To Folder ___________ does not exist Creating folder [___________] Couldn't create [___________]266 NO Unknown namespace. Used imapsync command: /home/imapsync/imapsync --host1 ip.of.host.1 --user1 user1 --password1 password --host2 127.0.0.1 --user2 user2 --password2 password --authmech2 LOGIN --regextrans2 s/\./_/g --delete2 --sep1 . --sep2 . --justfolders Another run with different namespace settings shows up the folders in Thunderbird as INBOX^2002, INBOX^Trash ans so on... My goal is to keep all client settings when migrating a bigger installation of cyrus to dovecot. For know all folders in Cyrus appear as subfolders of INBOX, which I had achieved with dovecot < 1.1beta11. Any ideas? Btw., as we work in a load balanced environment, LMTP delivery would be a great feature for upcoming releases, as it would enable people to use multiple frontends of SMTP servers without the need of connecting them to a somewhat shared file system. Forwarding all mail to a SMTP server on the machine running dovecot and doing delivery there isn't the favoured option (at least for us). And a huge thx to Timo on working that hard on such a great working product!

[Dovecot] Dovecot truncating messages and/or attachments
by fp＠kraptastic.com 21 Dec '07

21 Dec '07

Hello, I am having problems with Dovecot not sending clients emails bigger then 8-12k (it varies) or attachments bigger then 8-12k. I am also getting 'Corrupted transaction log file' errors ' unexpected end of file while reading header' I have deleted the dovecot.index.log, dovecot.index.cache, and dovecot.index several dozen times. I started off using Centos 5, with their package of dovecot 1.05, after seeing that there were problems in the package in the http://wiki.dovecot.org/WhyDoesItNotWork, I went with a source install of dovecot 1.09.

So it does not appear to be a permission problem, it is reading and writing to the directory properly. The system is x86_64 centos 5, not using the standard dovecot nor postfix rpms that come with the distro. postfix from what I can tell, is working fine, but dovecot isn't. I'm going to try installing cyrus to make sure it's not postfix, but I'd really like to avoid cyrus if possible. Thanks in advance for any help.

[Dovecot] about quota_warning behavior
by naoki 21 Dec '07

Hi, We've been using v1.0.5 +quota_warning patch, however quota_warning does't seem to be working properly. For example, in order to enable 80% over for quota warning, and we configured like following: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- plugin { quota_warning = storage=80%% /usr/local/path/to/plugin } ----------------------------------------------------------------------- But it does not work. However we set quota_warning value to 20%, it seems to be working. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- plugin { quota_warning =storage=20%% /usr/local/path/to/plugin } ----------------------------------------------------------------------- If this is the case, do we always have to set quota value to what we have after subtracting the required quota warning value from 100. for example, if we want quota warning value to be 70%, we actually have to write 30% in configuration?? Will there be another patch to fix this? Thanks -- Naoki Takazawa Marino Ltd., Yokohama, JAPAN
