[Dovecot] Newby Question
by Troy Bull 03 Mar '05

03 Mar '05

Hello I just setup my IMAP server and everything works great, except for 1 small detail. I am upgrading from uwashington's imap server, and in theirs I had to put a directory "mail" in for the imap folder (this is on the client). The problem I have is with dovecot this makes an extra level (I think). So on my server ~/mail is where the mail folder is located, but when the client puts in the "mail" for the imap server directory dovecot looks in and creates folders in ~/.mail/mail. This is a problem for me because I have many clients and I would have to go reconfigure each one. My question is this, is there a way to make dovecot look in ~/ so that when combined with the imap folder from the client it ends up in ~/mail? I hope that is clear enough, I was thinking maybe I need to set default_mail_env, but i have no idea to what? Thanks in advance Troy

[Dovecot] Trigger getmail via mail-client action?
by Gert Brinkmann 03 Mar '05

03 Mar '05

Hello, I want to use dovecot on my private debian/unstable-system to have the advantages of an IMAP-Server (Access to mails from different computers, Simply changing the mail client). I decided to use dovecot, because I very often have read (in the web) that it should be more simple to configure than other servers. Now I have the following question: I want to use getmail to retrieve mails from my provider's pop3-server. I do have a dial-up-connection that is not online permanently (I do not have a flat rate). I could start a script on ppp's ip-up that periodically invokes getmail and on ip-down to kill it again. But I would prefer to invoke getmail only when I really want it to be run. The ideal solution for me was to invoke getmail when the "Get Mail"-Button of the mail client is pressed. Is this possible? Perhaps there is something like a connection- or refresh-trigger in dovecot? Thank you, Gert

Is anyone else starting dovecot by inetd on the list? I'm unable to get it running, stupid me. I need help by someone more experienced. Peter

Martin, we're dealing with the same problem right now. We are using dovecot 1.0 stable and we migrated last weekend. 32-bit processes in Solaris 9 have 256 filedescriptors avail- able. This seems a bit to small. Using this command to get the number of file descriptors used by dovecot: ls -1 /proc/`cat /var/run/dovecot/master.pid`/fd | wc In our enviroment this is currently around 390. You can limit the number of file descriptors per process in Solaris 9. After starting Dovecot, we issued the command: plimit -n 8192,8192 `cat /var/run/dovecot/master.pid` This gives Dovecot 8192 filedescriptors. HTH, Remy

[Dovecot] Protect some mailbox to remove
by FireFly 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

I've installed dovecot 0.99.14 (maildir, postfix, RHEL3) and I would like to create , for every user, 4 mailbox (in skel): mail-sent, spam, virus-alert and sysadm. Procmail, parsing header mail, will move mails into a specific mailbox. Every users could move, delete, read these mails but they must not delete mailbox folder (such as INBOX mail). Thanks in advance, Francesco __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

[Dovecot] APOP
by Steven Stern 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

I want to turn off POP3 and use POP3S in its place. So far, it's working well for Outlook and Thunderbird. But I'm running into problems with Agent: It supports APOP but not POP3S. Is there a way to have Dovecot support APOP authentication on a normal POP3 connection? I'm running 0.99.13 on Fedora Core 3. -- Steve

[Dovecot] A few words about NFS please?
by Jeff A. Earickson 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

Hi, Could you say a few words about Dovecot and POP/IMAP to an NFS mounted filesystem? I thought I saw on the dovecot webpage that NFS is "no way" with 0.99 and "maybe" with 1.x. I was looking for the FAQ and couldn't find it. My setup is like so: My mail server is a Solaris 9 system, running sendmail/procmail, and qpopper POP. Mail is stored in mbox format. The /var/mail filesystem is NFS exported to another Solaris 9 system that runs UW-IMAP. The user community also has login access to this second system, so there are also local email clients like Pine and emacs using the NFS /var/mail. So, POP and sendmail/procmail accesses /var/mail locally, while UW-IMAP accesses it via NFS. The user community has been warned to do either POP or IMAP, but not both. There are very few problems with this setup. I would like to use Dovecot for both POP and IMAP on the two machines. I know NFS is frowned upon, but this has worked for me. Comments and suggestions, please? Jeff Earickson Colby College
