Re: [Dovecot] Support for Kmail maildir format

Then we have Evolution, which also uses maildirs but with yet another subfolder naming format (subfolders are created right beside the cur, new and tmp directories). In both cases, the folder names are not UTF-7 encoded on disk, which is worth noticing. -- Magnus Holmgren

At the moment when a project finishes we have to move it to another store so that it's not clogging up everyone's public folder list. Allowing people to only see the folders they want is one of the features that has attracted us to shared namespaces. > Unfortunately I don't think it's easy to currently make namespace's > subscriptions exist in another namespace.

Don't add it in the TODO - you've already done it (basically). I'd cobbled together a real kludge to use the dovecot-shared permissions on the subscriptions file (kinda - only the group permissions, not the user) and was about to post it to the list when I came across the way you'd already handled it. The subscriptions file is stored in the folder pointed to with the "CONTROL" directive - I just put this to a separate place for every user and it works fine. The only thing that's left is getting this added to the Wiki - I don't think anyone's done that yet.

[Dovecot] sig11 with 1.0.beta3 on openbsd-i386
by David Gwynne 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

i recently helped a friend of mine migrate from imap-uw using mboxes to dovecot on top of Maildirs and came up against two issues. this is quite embarrassing as ive been claiming dovecot is Solid As A Rock(tm) and hasn't ever given me any issues. 1. if dovecot runs out of file descriptors it will loop forever trying to open new logging pipes. the code in question is at line 624 of src/master/login-process.c 2. we get a sig11 in the imap process. heres the bt: dlg@mail dlg$ gdb -c imap.core /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap GNU gdb 6.3 Copyright 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

[Dovecot] Realm Stripping
by Michael Baird 29 Mar '06

29 Mar '06

I saw some discussion on this from the middle of last year. Looking through the archives, there didn't seem to be a full solution using a standard dovecot configuration. Did this issue get resolved within dovecot? Will it strip domains from the login presented by the customer. I currently am using dovecot for imap with a webmail system (I strip the domain there before it hits dovecot), but I'd like to replace qpopper with dovecot's pop3, just need to work out the domain stripping bit.

[Dovecot] Solution to Dovecot-lda configure problem on RHEL4/FC4
by Tomi Hakala 29 Mar '06

29 Mar '06

Hello, After a long break from Dovecot I finally managed to compile Dovecot-lda on RHEL 4 x86_64 platfrom. For some reason $LIBICONV translates to a @LIBICONV@ on config.status which generates loop for sed. Solution is to manually edit "configure" after autogen.sh. In configure change line s,@LIBICONV@,$LIBICONV,;t t to s,@LIBICONV@,,;t t After this configure finishes succesfully. Tomi
