I just upgraded a server from Courier-IMAP to Dovecot, and I'm seeing
some odd behavior. It's probably the result of something I did wrong
in my configuration, and I'm hoping someone will let me know the easy
fix for it.
I have rules set up in Apple Mail to move and copy messages to
different folders, some of which are IMAP folders, others on my own
system. With Courier-IMAP, the messages would get moved without a
problem. With dovecot, that's not happening.
Here's my dovecot config. I've tried changing
maildir_copy_with_hardlinks and maildir_copy_preserve_filename to
"no", but that didn't seem to help.
# 1.0.10: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf
disable_plaintext_auth: no
login_dir: /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/login
login_executable: /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login
verbose_proctitle: yes
first_valid_uid: 89
last_valid_uid: 89
first_valid_gid: 89
last_valid_gid: 89
maildir_copy_with_hardlinks: yes
maildir_copy_preserve_filename: yes
namespace:
type: private
prefix: INBOX.
inbox: yes
auth default:
mechanisms: plain login digest-md5 cram-md5
username_chars:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_@%
username_translation: %@
passdb:
driver: vpopmail
userdb:
driver: vpopmail
plugin:
quota: maildir
I haven't tried logging the IMAP session yet, but I can turn off SSL,
fire up Wireshark and monitor the session if necessary.
Is this a known problem? I'm able to move messages between folders
manually, but when Apple Mail moves the new messages it doesn't work.
