by Joy 28 Aug '12

28 Aug '12

Dear Experts, I have configured virtual plugin for my setup which is working as expected but after this dovecot lda is unable to deliver message to any mailbox and showing following error:- Error: user XXXXX: Initialization failed: Namespace 'virtual.': Unknown mail storage driver virtual Aug 28 12:46:27 lda(XXXXX): Fatal: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information. Here is Namespace setting on my server:- namespace { type = private separator = . prefix = inbox = yes } namespace { prefix = virtual. separator = . location = virtual:~/Maildir/virtual:LAYOUT=maildir++ } Please let me know what could be the issue..

I've looked at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Mailbox and there a few features I like which javax.mail just doesn't have. Is there maybe a Java driver for doveadm? thanks, Thufir

[Dovecot] plugin development: retrieve username -d -f inside plugins
by Alano Conraz 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

Hello, i don't know if it a the right place to ask my question related to the development of dovecot plugins, please correct me if it is not. I'm trying some dovecot plugin development. I did a little plugin that suit my needs but i'd like to go further now... I would like to know if there is a kind of "getenv" function that I could call to retrieve in my plugin the username of the mailbox being delivered by dovecot-lda or served by imap server. For example, when I use the deliver with "cat file.txt | deliver -d " user(a)domain.net" -f "me(a)domain.net" I would like to call a function that could return for me the argument of "-d" or "-f". i'm working with dovecot 2.0.17 by now. Thank you

Is there a way for setting up dovecot in such a way that a user can "jump back in time" to an old mailbox "state" in order to retrieve his accidentially deleted mail? -- Ralf Hildebrandt Geschäftsbereich IT | Abteilung Netzwerk Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin Campus Benjamin Franklin Hindenburgdamm 30 | D-12203 Berlin Tel. +49 30 450 570 155 | Fax: +49 30 450 570 962 ralf.hildebrandt(a)charite.de | http://www.charite.de

[Dovecot] How to configure dovecot for specific mailboxes only?
by Alex 27 Aug '12

27 Aug '12

Hi, is it possible to configure dovecot so that it only serves mailboxes of specified users? All other users should be completely ignored so that no indexing of messages or other resource consuming actions take place. Thanks in advance, Alex

[Dovecot] UIDPLUS for Maildir?
by Martin Rabl 25 Aug '12

25 Aug '12

Hi, I found the following comment in the documentation (http://wiki.dovecot.org/FeatUIDPLUS) last edited on 2009-03-15 > Dovecot already supported UIDPLUS at one point for mbox, but implementing it > for Maildir has to be done differently (UIDs are allocated later with Maildir). > So currently the UIDPLUS code is removed until it can be made to > work with Maildir. My question: does this extension now run with maildir? Thank you, Martin

[Dovecot] dsync replication available for testing
by Timo Sirainen 25 Aug '12

25 Aug '12

In dovecot-2.1 hg you can now test dsync-based replication. Everything isn't finished yet, but it appears to work and I've enabled it for my @dovecot.fi mails. Some issues: - public namespace isn't replicated at all - shared namespace is replicated, but not private mail flags - I've only tested SSH replication setup now, not director replication setup (and director setup is still missing many things) - SSH replication setup uses aggregator process, which isn't really necessary and can probably be avoided in future Below is a configuration for virtual user setup. System user configuration works pretty much the same, except doveadm/ssh is run as root. Try first that dsync works successfully with ssh in host1: doveadm sync -u user@domain remote:vmail@host2.example.com and also in host2: doveadm sync -u user@domain remote:vmail@host1.example.com ------ mail_plugins = $mail_plugins notify replication service aggregator { # give enough permissions for mail processes fifo_listener replication-notify-fifo { user = vmail mode = 0600 } unix_listener replication-notify { user = vmail mode = 0600 } } service replicator { # start replication at startup process_min_avail = 1 } plugin { # host1 replicates to host2 mail_replica = remote:vmail@host2.example.com # host2 replicates to host1 #mail_replica = remote:vmail@host1.example.com } #dsync_remote_cmd = ssh -l%{login} %{host} doveadm dsync-server -u%u -l%{lock_timeout} -n%{namespace} service doveadm { # if you're using a single virtual user, set this to # start ssh as vmail (not root) user = vmail }

[Dovecot] Shared mdboxes
by Wagner Michel Martins de Azevedo 24 Aug '12

24 Aug '12

Hi Timo, I'm trying to share two folders. The first one it's public and the other is per user based, using acl's to control access etc . Dovecot create the folders, but when I'll subscribe using ThunderBird client both of them seens like watermarked and has a "mailboxes" folder inside. I can set up the acl's rules using Thunderbird. Log files like mail.log don't show nothing in special and mail.err has nothing. Here is the config. # 2.1.8 (b4cd382b6606): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf# OS: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 x86_64 Debian 6.0.5 /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10.mail.conf namespace { type = public separator = . prefix = public. location = mdbox:/var/mail_shares/public:INDEX=/var/mail_shares/public subscriptions = no}namespace { type = shared separator = . prefix = %h/shared location = mdbox:%h/shared:INDEX=%h/shared subscriptions = no list = children} Thanks, Wagner Azevedo
