[Dovecot] Documentation for ACL support
by Michael Renner 02 May '06

02 May '06

Hi, the changelog of beta4 suggested that ACL support was added but I couldn't find any documentation for it neither in the tarball nor in the wiki. Timo, do you already have some writeups regarding the ACLs or do I have to RTFS? best regards, Michael

[Dovecot] Dovecot LDA troubles (input in flex scanner failed)
by Mark Moses 01 May '06

01 May '06

Hi all, I'm running fedora core 5 with postfix 2.2.8 (modified rpm version) and dovecot 1.0 beta7 and dovecot-lda nighly cvs snapshot from 14-04-2006 I might need to add that amavisd-new is configured as a content-filter. I have postfix running using virtual users in an mysql database and I have setup dovecot lda in postfix like the wiki says here: http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA#head-dacb9b9a1f19c3ea86bb6f8caa3d64e3ddad9ef8 When I sent an email using this setup I get the following error in my maillog: May 1 20:41:29 calimero postfix/pipe[15760]: 8337934FABB: to=< mark(a)mydomain.com>, relay=dovecot, delay=0, status=bounced (Command died with status 2: "/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver". Command output: input in flex scanner failed ) I really don't know if this is a configuration problem or a bug and how I can get more information about the error note: I haven't included config-files, but if they are needed I will provide those of course Hope someone can point me in the right direction. Sincerely, Mark

Building a newer version of Dovecot on Fedora is dead simple: ./configure --with-mysql make make install And you absolutely DO NOT want to run Dovecot with MySQL authentication using the 0.99 builds. There are many many bugs. Go get yourself the latest 1.0 beta version instead. -- Roger J.

Hello! Noone has running a sendmail/Mailscanner/procmail/mbox environment? Ciao, Gerhard ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2006 20:27:56 +0200 (CEST) From: Gerhard Wiesinger <lists(a)wiesinger.com> To: dovecot(a)dovecot.org Subject: [Dovecot] Dovecot LDA with sendmail/Mailscanner Hello! I'm running dovecot in a sendmail/Mailscanner/procmail/mbox environment. I want to use dovecot lda because index files aren't updated when using sendmail as lda. Has someone this combination running and some configuration hints so that sendmail, Mailscanner and procmail ist working well. Does procmail work with lda, too? Thank you for the answer. Ciao, Gerhard
