[Dovecot] get username of logged in user
by Stefan Jurisch 15 Jan '09

15 Jan '09

Hello, can I anywhere get the name of the currently logged in user? I'm still implementing a custom ACL plugin (IMAP commands MYRIGHTS, GETACL, SETACL, DELETEACL), and for some functions (for example storing the current folder's ACL in combination with this username) I need to obtain the currently logged in IMAP user. Is this possible? If yes - how? Thanks in advance.

[Dovecot] ImapTest Wiki
by Justin Krejci 15 Jan '09

15 Jan '09

On this page http://imapwiki.org/ImapTest/Running It gives command line parameters to define. One of them is "password=pass" but this resulted in an "Unknown arg" response for me on a fresh install. I then looked at some examples and they give the argument as "pass=pass" which works for me. Was the argument name changed recently or something?

[Dovecot] Personal dovecot
by Andrzej Adam Filip 15 Jan '09

15 Jan '09

Do you think it wold be worthwhile to add command line options to "deliver" and "imap" to make them ignore "system wide" configuration file and use ~/.dovecotrc instead? I would like to use "imap via fetchmail ssh plugin" and "deliver via ~/.forward (to get sieve support)". Such options would allow "cleaner" configuration. -- [pl>en: Andrew] Andrzej Adam Filip : anfi(a)onet.eu : anfi(a)xl.wp.pl Nice boy, but about as sharp as a sack of wet mice. -- Foghorn Leghorn

[Dovecot] ldap performance?
by Jan-Frode Myklebust 15 Jan '09

15 Jan '09

We're looking at replacing our mysql auth and userdb, with a set of Red Hat Directory servers, and I see dovecot supports either authentication binds, or "password lookups": http://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP I'm curious if anybody can give any insight as to what kind of performance to expect from authentication binds ? How many POP3s/second should we expect from it ? Our directory servers will be 2 blades with 4 cores of 2GHz each, and we expect to keep the full directory in memory on both servers. -jf

[Dovecot] Apple patch 9
by Mike Abbott 15 Jan '09

15 Jan '09

Patch #9 adds support for Open Directory and an encrypted SSL keystore. Notes about this patch: It adds --enable-apple and --with-od options to configure (after running autoconf). It depends on patch #7 (hash_table_create/destroy). Automake wipes out this patch's changes to Makefile.in. The - framework options should come from Makefile.am but the author didn't do that. It uses a tab-stops-every-4 indentation style. It may compile and run only on Mac OS X 10.6, currently available via Apple Developer Connection. This code is stable but Apple is still verifying its robustness. This is the patch that needs the user name as extra_fields[0] in deliver, to handle user name aliases. More patches to come, probably after the holidays.

[Dovecot] Maildir++ quota: When is it recalculated?
by Ulrich Zehl 14 Jan '09

14 Jan '09

We use Maildir++ quota, with the rules taken from our LDAP backend. We also have an old expunge script that's not quota-aware; it removes old messages from the maildir by simply deleting the files. Sometimes, a mailbox is over quota before the script runs, but well under quota after the old messages are deleted. This change does not seem to be picked up, however: When I try to deliver a new message (using Dovecot's deliver), the attempt fails with an "over quota" error. I tried finding out from the source code whether this is intended behavior, but unfortunately, I'm not enough of a programmer, so I have to ask here: Should I be able to delete mails from a maildir, and expect the quota plugin to notice the change? We use Dovecot 1.1.8, by the way. Ulrich
