Hello!
I'm attempting to use dovecot-lda, and for whatever reason, messages that I send with it are not visible in my IMAP client.
$ dovecot --version 2.2.22 (fe789d2)
(Full "doveconf -n" output is at the bottom of this message!)
Here's the the sequence of commands that I'm using:
# su vmail
$ echo 'This is a test message.' > /tmp/test.txt
$ stat /tmp/test.txt File: '/tmp/test.txt' Size: 24 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 4096 regular file Device: fd01h/64769d Inode: 783925 Links: 2 Access: (0664/-rw-rw-r--) Uid: ( 5000/ vmail) Gid: ( 5000/ vmail) Access: 2016-08-18 20:49:38.419011552 -0400 Modify: 2016-08-18 20:49:07.178995015 -0400 Change: 2016-08-18 20:49:38.191011425 -0400 Birth: -
$ /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d "test@example.com" -p "/tmp/test.txt"
When I do this, the destination mailbox acts like there's a new message (I'm using Thunderbird, and the mailbox is highlighted in blue and bolded, which is the "new mail" behavior in this client).
But when I "check my inbox", i.e., click on the Inbox, I don't see the new message.
With regard to the filesystem, the message is present and contains the intended contents. Here's the "stat" output:
$ stat /var/vmail/example.com/ben/Maildir/cur/1471567777.M685753P32257.example.com,S=24:2, File: '/var/vmail/example.com/ben/Maildir/cur/1471567777.M685753P32257.example.com,S=24:2,' Size: 24 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 4096 regular file Device: fd01h/64769d Inode: 783925 Links: 2 Access: (0664/-rw-rw-r--) Uid: ( 5000/ vmail) Gid: ( 5000/ vmail) Access: 2016-08-18 20:51:05.647059340 -0400 Modify: 2016-08-18 20:50:58.543055378 -0400 Change: 2016-08-18 20:50:58.543055378 -0400 Birth: -
Might anyone know why I'm not "seeing" this message in my IMAP client?
Interestingly, I tried another IMAP client (Blue Mail for Android), and I can actually see the messages there, but they appear in the Inbox as:
(No subject) <Empty Message>
When I click on the messages, Blue Mail simply displays "No text", without the quotes.
Surely, I'm overlooking something simple...
Thank you for any help here!
