Hi, i have qmail + vpopmail + dovecot + squirrelmail 0.99.14 on Fedora Core 4. Qmail includes its own pop3 server, and everybody is able to access it from outside. Dovecot is used only locally by SquirrelMail - so everybody can access via webmail.
I'd like to make imap directly available from outside, but only for a few selected domains (NOT ip addresses!), while leaving everyone able to access with pop3 and/or via webmail.
Hi Francesco,
yes it is theoretically possible, but due to some problems this feature of vpopmail is not fully compatible with dovecot.
vpopmail via ~vpopmail/bin/vmoduser can set some limit to single users, example disble pop3, disable imap, disable imap except for webmail, etc ...
Dovect should move to vpopmail some parameters of the user who logged, as his address and local port connection, but unfortunately these parameters are not passed, or at least not be passed as would expect to receive vpopmail,
in particular for the connections made via imap from remote clients. (...)
Alessio, thank you for your very complete answer and evalutation of the problem. Since you have already set up a test environment, can you do me a favour and try one more thing? Specify - in dovecot.conf - the port on which imap should listen to, and see if it makes any difference to vpopmail.
Thank you again very much for your cooperation.
