[Dovecot] Dovecot under Virtual Host environment??
by sparkietm 10 Jan '12

10 Jan '12

Hi all, Could anyone point me to a walk-through of setting up Dovecot for multiple domains under a Virtual Host environment? I'd like to offer clients their own email domain for each virtual host e.g john(a)client_1.com, sue(a)client_2.com. I'm guessing this is fairly common set-up, but a search on "multiple domains" didn't bring much back. Also, would it be possible to offer each client webmail? Many thanks in advance Mark -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Dovecot-under-Virtual-Host-environment---tp33114381p3… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] A small bug and a question about CONTEXT=SEARCH
by Anders 10 Jan '12

10 Jan '12

Hi, I have been looking at search and sorting with dovecot and have run into some things. The first one I think may be a minor bug because a set of commands result in the socket connection being closed without warning: UID SEARCH RETURN (SAVE COUNT) CHARSET UTF-8 (UNDELETED TEXT "foo") UID SEARCH RETURN (COUNT MIN) CHARSET UTF-8 () $ The empty paranthesis before the reference to the previous search result ($) is not legal IMAP, but should not cause the socket to be closed I think. Then I have question about RFC5267 and the announcement of CONTEXT=SEARCH in the capabilities. I think this RFC is supported by dovecot, or maybe just part of the RFC is supported? At least when I include the CONTEXT ADDTO or REMOVEFROM keywords I get an error, but UPDATE and CANCELUPDATE seem to be supported. The RFC has been updated by the RFC describing the NOTIFY extension to IMAP so maybe it has been decided to not add these keywords until a later time? I am using dovecot version 2.0.15 (with patches from Apple). Best Regards Anders

[Dovecot] rewriting mail_location
by Burckhard Schmidt 10 Jan '12

10 Jan '12

Hello, I have LDAP as userdb. Entries containing attributes mail=alias.user1(a)some.domain.de and uid=user1 Mail to alias.user1(a)some.domain.de gets delivered into /datatest/user/alias.user1 instead of /datatest/user/user1 by lda. I have userdb { args = /usr/dovecot/etc/ldapuser.conf driver = ldap } with a ldapuser.conf: hosts ... base ... user_filter = (&(|(mail=%u)(mail=%n(a)some.domain) (uid=%u))(objectClass=posixAccount)) user_attrs = uid=mail_location=maildir:/datatest/user/%$, uidNumber=29,gidNumber=133 I hoped local part of attribute mail could be replaced by uid for local delivery with dovecots lda? Any hints how to do that? (With postfix I could rewrite the address to uid@host and use local_transport = dovecot.) postfix has virtual_transport = dovecot.

[Dovecot] Proxy login failures

Hi, I'm using two dovecot pop3/imap proxies in front of our dovecot servers. Since some days I see many of the following errors in the logs of the two proxy-servers: ... dovecot: pop3-login: Error: proxy: Remote "IPV6-IP":110 disconnected: Connection closed: Connection reset by peer (state=0): user=<myuser>, method=PLAIN, rip=remote-ip, lip=localip ... dovecot: imap-login: Error: proxy: Remote "IPV6-IP":143 disconnected: Connection closed: Connection reset by peer (state=0): user=<myuser>, method=PLAIN, rip=remote-ip, lip=localip ... When this happens the Client gets the following error from the proxy: -ERR [IN-USE] Account is temporarily unavailable.

[Dovecot] Postfix user map
by Timo Sirainen 10 Jan '12

10 Jan '12

http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.1/rev/f562bcaca215 implements "postmap" type sockets, which follow Postfix's tcp_table(5) protocol. So you can ask: get user@domain and Dovecot answers one of: - 200 1 - 500 User not found - 400 Internal failure So you can use this with Postfix: virtual_mailbox_maps = tcp:127.0.0.1:1234 With Dovecot you can enable it with: service auth { inet_listener postmap { listen = 127.0.0.1 port = 1234 } } Anyone have ideas if this could be improved, or used for some other purposes?
