[Dovecot] var_expand and pop3_logout_format

Hi. -alpha2 broke the retr-byte-count field of the pop3_logout_format with the following change: -Added %R (reverse string) and %H (hash string) variable modifiers. %R as modifier conflicts on expand with %R as retr-byte-count in pop3_logout_format resulting in expanded strings like: top=0/0, retr=1/ del=0/1, size=431 seen in -alpha3 -alpha4 cvs as of 04.11.2005 FreeBSD 5.4-R, both i386 and amd64 -- ./lxnt

[Dovecot] Fedora 4: x86_64 different build options than i386?
by fishgills＠fishgills.net 01 Apr '06

01 Apr '06

After successful testing on our 32-bit machine using the rpm, I'm installing dovecot on our Fedora 64-bit machine using that rpm. In the log file I get: dovecot: Mar 31 15:34:16 Error: auth(default): Unknown database driver 'mysql' I see this: # dovecot --build-options Build options: ioloop=poll dnotify ipv6 openssl Passdb: checkpassword pam passwd passwd-file shadow Userdb: checkpassword passwd passwd-file static and dovecot is in: /usr/local/sbin/dovecot But on my 32-bit Fedora machine, also installed from the rpm, I get this: # dovecot --build-options Build options: ioloop=poll dnotify ipv6 openssl mysql postgresql sqlite Passdb: checkpassword ldap pam passwd passwd-file shadow sql Userdb: checkpassword ldap passwd passwd-file sql static and dovecot is in: /usr/sbin Shouldn't the 64-bit machine have the same build-options? What can I do to make it right? Do I *have* to build it from a tarball? Charlie Davis

Yeah, I got your latest from your website. Google's top return for you was an older release. Using your .5 I believe it is. For x86_64 of course. It works fine now. ----- On Friday, March 31, 2006 ivazquez(a)ivazquez.net wrote: > On Fri, 2006-03-31 at 16:32 -0800, fishgills(a)fishgills.net wrote: >> After successful testing on our 32-bit machine using the rpm, I'm >> installing dovecot on our Fedora 64-bit machine using that rpm.

[Dovecot] Quick question. Thunderbird/Outlook = no love.
by Charlie Davis 01 Apr '06

01 Apr '06

Are there any how-tos or documentation on getting dovecot to be thunderbird/outlook friendly? Thunderbird can connect about 20% of the time, the other 80% of the time, I Get the error: "You may need to connect via SSL or TLS. Please check the account settings for your mail server." I have my thunderbird setup to do TLS. I've put it on the TLS if available as well, still no love. Dovecot logfile contains: dovecot: Mar 31 17:25:19 Info: imap-login: Aborted login: rip=10.0.0.4, lip=10.0.0.208, TLS dovecot: Mar 31 17:25:24 Info: imap-login: Aborted login: rip=10.0.0.4, lip=10.0.0.208, TLS Nothing else. Thanks in advance! -Charlie

Oh, I forgot to mention that if I turn on plain text authentication, it works fine. But I'd to do TLS over the net. -Charlie ----- On Friday, March 31, 2006 fishgills(a)fishgills.net wrote: > Are there any how-tos or documentation on getting dovecot to be > thunderbird/outlook friendly? > > Thunderbird can connect about 20% of the time, the other 80% of the time, I > Get the error: > > "You may need to connect via SSL or TLS.

Fixed this by getting the latest x86_64 rpm from Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams' repository. Sorry for the email. :D -Charlie Davis ----- On Friday, March 31, 2006 fishgills(a)fishgills.net wrote: > After successful testing on our 32-bit machine using the rpm, I'm > installing dovecot on our Fedora 64-bit machine using that rpm.
