Hello guys, I chose Dovecot to run on an RHEL 5, comunicating with an AD server for users query over LDAP. Any tips ? What version you suggest could fit the best on that distro ?

[Dovecot] OT: Cron Output When Deleting Files
by Jeff Grossman 17 Oct '07

17 Oct '07

I have a Dovecot setup for a personal e-mail server. I have a cron job setup each evening which runs the following command to delete old messages from my Deleted Items folder. find ./ -type f -ctime +14 | xargs rm I don't know that much about bash scripting. I would like the output to tell me how many files were deleted. Can anybody share with me how can I get that done, or point in the correct direction? Thanks, Jeff

[Dovecot] Squirrelmail Problem with 1.1 Beta 3
by Jeff Grossman 16 Oct '07

16 Oct '07

I just installed 1.1 beta 3 and noticed a problem when sending an e-mail with Squirrelmail. When I hit send, I get the following error in my log: Oct 16 11:35:54 apple dovecot: IMAP(jeff): Disconnected: EOF while appending bytes=1851/5926 Oct 16 11:35:54 apple imapproxyd[9132]: Raw_Proxy(): IMAP server unexpectedly closed the connection on sd 9 I am also using imapproxy. I wasn't sure if that line would help also. In Squirrelmail I get a LOGOUT message when it tries to redisplay the INBOX listing. The message does get sent correctly, but it does not get copied to my Sent Items folder. I went and deleted all of the dovecot.index* files and now I don't get that error anymore, but I now get the following error. The message is now copied to the Sent Items folder. Oct 16 11:44:45 apple dovecot: IMAP(jeff): Cache file /home/jeff/.maildir/.Sent Items/dovecot.index.cache: Newly added field got lost unexpectedly Jeff

[Dovecot] namespace prefix issue with avelsieve and dovecot v1.1beta2
by Martin Konopka 16 Oct '07

16 Oct '07

Hi, I have installed dovecot v1.1.beta2 with the sieve plugin v.1.1.2. I have configured the following namespace: namespace: type: private separator: . prefix: INBOX. location: inbox: yes hidden: no list: yes When I create a rule which should move messages into the subfolder "Junk", Dovecot's deliver seems to ignore the namespace and creates a new folder .INBOX.Junk . I think I read somewhere that in Dovecot v1.1+ deliver supports namespaces? Or have I misconfigured something? Thank you! Martin dovecot -n output: # 1.1.beta2: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imap imaps pop3 pop3s ssl_listen(default): *:993 ssl_listen(imap): *:993 ssl_listen(pop3): *:995 ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/certs/server.crt ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/certs/server.key verbose_ssl: yes login_dir: /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_extra_groups: mail mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir mail_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugins(default): quota imap_quota mail_plugins(imap): quota imap_quota mail_plugins(pop3): mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/pop3 namespace: type: private separator: . prefix: INBOX. inbox: yes list: yes auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd plugin: quota: fs

[Dovecot] Error: net_connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Resource temporarily unavailable
by Maykel Moya 16 Oct '07

16 Oct '07

I'm using deliver (1.0.5) with Postfix (2.1.6). I made a test for a few minutes in a moderated busy server. While most mails was delivered, a lot of them failed with this error: deliver(userfoo): Oct 15 09:58:31 Error: net_connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Resource temporarily unavailable Sounds to me something like not enough auth-master to answer every concurrent deliver. Any hint? Regards, maykel PD: If there any other info I could give let me know.

[Dovecot] assertion failure when appending
by Johannes Berg 15 Oct '07

15 Oct '07

I get this assertion failure: file maildir-save.c: line 456 (maildir_save_finish): assertion failed: (ctx->seq != 0) once a while when I APPEND messages to a folder. My plugin doesn't touch the ctx, especially not the internal maildir one, but I have no idea where to start looking. Any hints? johannes

Version: 1.0.beta8 Is it possible to listen on just specific IP addresses as opposed a single IP or just all IPs on the same server? Thanks, LDB
