Following up my earlier mail, perhaps I am being obtuse here; I've changed the permissions of auth-userdb to 666, although I have no idea what these files in /var/run/dovecot are. These appears to solve the problem above.

[Dovecot] sieve filters not being invoked
by Colin Brace 09 May '11

09 May '11

Hi all, Similar to someone who posted here yesterday, I am having trouble getting sieve filters working. I have installed pigeonhole. I can create, edit, and save scripts from both the Thunderbird sieve extension as well as the Roundcube sieve plugin via managesieve running on port 4190. The .sieve file is properly saved in ~/sieve with a symlink from ~/.dovecot.sieve. But the filters are not being invoked on incoming mail. I have mail_debug enabled, but I don't see anything useful in /var/log/dovecot. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks $ dovecot -n # 2.0.11: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE amd64 ufs auth_verbose = yes base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ disable_plaintext_auth = no first_valid_gid = 0 info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot log_path = /var/log/dovecot mail_access_groups = mail mail_debug = yes mail_location = maildir:/home/colin/vmail/%d/%n managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date passdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-passwd driver = passwd-file } plugin/sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve plugin/sieve_dir = ~/sieve plugin/sieve_global_dir = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/global/ plugin/sieve_global_path = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve protocols = imap sieve service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-master { group = mail mode = 0660 user = vmail } user = root } service imap-login { executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login vsz_limit = 64 M } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } service pop3-login { executable = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login vsz_limit = 64 M } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/venus.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/venus.key userdb { driver = passwd } userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/colin/vmail/%d/%n driver = static } verbose_proctitle = yes protocol lda { mail_plugins = sieve } ----- Colin Brace Amsterdam http://lim.nl -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/sieve-filters-not-being-invoked-tp31569757p31569757.h… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] mbox/maildir mixed setup with system/virtual mixed users
by Victor TARHON-ONU 09 May '11

09 May '11

Hello Everyone, I'm using dovecot 1.0.7 (not sure how relevant it is though) configured to handle both sytem users and virtual users. The system users are handled by default (PAM), while the virtual users are handled pretty much like this: passdb passwd-file { args = /var/spool/vmail/%d/auth/%n } ...And mailbox and folder location settings: userdb static { args = uid=mail gid=mail home=/var/spool/vmail/%d/mail/%n mail=mbox:/var/spool/vmail/%d/imap/%n:INBOX=mbox:/var/spool/vmail/%d/mail/%n } Everything works perfectly with the inbox and mail foder in mbox format. Now, what I'm trying to accomplish is to reconfigure dovecot to create and handle the secondary mail folders (/home/user/mail for system users and /var/spool/vmail/domainname/imap/user/imap for virtual users) in maildir format. I tried to define some name spaces to make this happen, but whatever I to do make one work (either the virtual users or the system users) would make the other non-functional. By example, I have these name space definitions and the virtual users work fine with maildir: namespace private { separator = / prefix = "#mbox/" location = mbox:/var/spool/vmail/%d/imap/%n:INBOX=/var/spool/vmail/%d/mail/%n inbox = yes hidden = yes } namespace private { separator = / prefix = location = maildir:/var/spool/vmail/%d/imap/%n hidden = yes } Maybe I didn't fully understand the namespace concept, but I was unable to make them apply only to one location of the imap folders locations or another. Can anyone give me a hand with this, if this setup is even possible? --

[Dovecot] Restricting IMAP
by Matt 09 May '11

09 May '11

I want to restrict IMAP use too 127.0.0.1 and to only certain usernames. Such as fred(a)my777domain.com would be allowed to use IMAP. How would I do that with Dovecot or can I? Basically I want webmail to work with IMAP regardless of username but I only want certain usernames allowed to use IMAP remotely.

Hello, dovecot-2.0.12/doc/example-config/conf.d/10-logging.conf contains # mail_log plugin provides more event logging for mail processes. plugin { # Events to log.
