Hi, just subscribed after successfully (?) migrating from a somewhat old linuxconf/vimap config. dovecot-1.1.7, x86
A few issues: The index files seem to be created with the wrong permissions. I get numerous ``Dec 24 15:36:29 mail dovecot: POP3(user@domain): stat(/var/run/dovecot/imap-index/domain/user/.imap/INBOX) failed: Permission denied (euid=60107 egid=231 missing +x perm: /var/run/dovecot/imap-index/domain)'' errors. the directory /var/run/dovecot/imap-index is drwxrwxrwt 29 dovecot dovecot 4.0k Dec 24 15:57 imap-index but the directories inside it are created as drwx------ 15 60107 popusers 4.0k Dec 24 15:50 domain
Questions:
- Why is POP3 interested in the imap indices ?
- IMAP clients do not complain all that much, as far as I can see, but what happens to POP3 ?
- Is there something to configure to get rid of this ?
Also, I have written a somewhat sloppy patch to determine the domain from the server's IP. That way it is not necessary to persuade all users to switch to logging in as ``user@domain'' (which I've tried with very limited success). Would this be the correct place to post the patch and discuss ?
