[Dovecot] Strange Error in RC19
by Jay Chandler 02 Feb '07

02 Feb '07

Drops IMAP connection when a particular user's "Sent" folder is opened. Does this mean that the sent folder is potentially corrupted?

[Dovecot] namespace subscription problem
by Nate Sanders 02 Feb '07

02 Feb '07

Greetings, I am trying to setup a private namespace in dovecot and running in to some troubles. Here is my setup: > default_mail_env = maildir:~/Maildir > > # default namespace > namespace private { > separator = . > prefix = > inbox = yes > } > namespace private { > separator = . > prefix = maillog. > location = maildir:/var/maildir/maillog/Maildir/ > #inbox = yes > hidden = no > } So far it's working to a degree. When I load my imap folder and go to Subscribe, I can see the master "maillog" folder, and expand it to see all the subfolders. The problem is, I cannot subscribe to the master "maillog" folder. Only it's sub folders. When I check dovecot.info it says this: > dovecot: 2007-01-31 13:27:42 Info: imap(nate): Namespace: > type=private, prefix=maillog., sep=., inbox=no, hidden=no, > subscriptions=no I see there "subscriptions=no". Is it possible to change this to yes? Would changing this to yes allow me to subscribe to the actual namespace folder? I tried adding "subscriptions=yes" and "subscription=yes" to dovecot.conf but both entries resulted in failed starts and errors. How is it possible allow subscriptions directly to this namespace? Thanks. -- Nate Sanders nate(a)ima.umn.edu Associate Systems Manager (612) 624 - 4353 Institute for Mathematics and its Applications

[Dovecot] periodic problems with dovecot-1.0rc19 (No authentication sockets found)
by Mikhail Teterin 02 Feb '07

02 Feb '07

Hi, Timo! On the new server running 1.0rc19 people stop being able to login every once in a while. The log messages on the server side are: Jan 30 12:18:50 bonkers dovecot: pop3-login: No authentication sockets found Jan 30 12:18:50 bonkers dovecot: pop3-login: No authentication sockets found Jan 30 12:18:59 bonkers dovecot: pop3-login: No authentication sockets found Jan 30 12:19:01 bonkers dovecot: imap-login: No authentication sockets found Jan 30 12:19:06 bonkers dovecot: pop3-login: No authentication sockets found Restarting dovecot helps for a while, but then the problem reappears... The config-file was copied from an older server running 1.0.r15, where we never saw this problem... The old server ran FreeBSD-4.10/i386. The new one runs FreeBSD-6.2/amd64. Thanks for any hints! Yours, -mi

[Dovecot] dspam plugin
by Tom Bombadil 02 Feb '07

02 Feb '07

Hi all... I was looking into the dspam plugin, and it looks very interesting. I saw two version of it around: - one that forks and call dspam - one that calls a store procedure in mysql. I was wondering if we can just log signature and classification into a flat file, instead. The problem is that calling spam can be expensive; And eventhough the myslq solution is brilliant, I dont want to rely on mysql to be alive in order to move the files to/from spam box. Plus, the plugin would be much lighter wihtout libmysqlclient. Any ideas?

[Dovecot] Dovecot mailing list page down
by Dotan Cohen 02 Feb '07

02 Feb '07

As I've decided not to manage my own mail server, I'm trying to unsubscribe from the dovecot list. However, the page at http://www.dovecot.org/mailinglists.html is down. Does anybody have the welcome email, so that they could tell me to what address to send the unsubscribe command to? Thanks in advance.

[Dovecot] Query: LSUB "" "*" still on rc19
by Gavin Henry 02 Feb '07

02 Feb '07

Hi all, We've downgraded to rc17 for the past week or so, as when we upgraded to rc19, this error did go, but came back again. ERROR: Could not complete request. Query: LSUB "" "*" Reason Given: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. Looks like it never helped us in rc19. Back on rc17 just now, which we still have to restart a few times a day, do to the LDAP stuff (which was fixed in rc18/19), but at least we can get in ;-) Which logs settings/debug do you need to get more info? Thanks. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry. Managing Director. T +44 (0) 1224 279484 M +44 (0) 7930 323266 F +44 (0) 1224 824887 E ghenry(a)suretecsystems.com Open Source.

[Dovecot] Multiple Trash patch for DSPAM plugin
by Hugo Monteiro 01 Feb '07

01 Feb '07

Hello all, First of all my respects to Johannes for the nice dspam plugin he created. Unfortunatly i got stuck with a problem in that same plugin since it didn't allow the use of more than one Trash folder. That can be an issue if you have a wide variety of clients working in a wide variety of languages. Not all use the english "Trash" for that folder. I've written a small patch to accomodate that situation and it's working just fine for me. I'm submitting it in the hope that it can be usefull to others. Hope it's usefull for others too.
