[Dovecot] Extension for sorting mails by Displayname
by Michael Kliewe 18 Aug '10

18 Aug '10

Hi everybody, first of all, thanks Timo for version 2.0. Currently I want to sort mails server-side by displayname of FROM and TO. There is an extension for it, but I think dovecot does not support it at the moment. It is defined in RFC 5957: https://www.tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5957 Is there an dovecot extension for it, how can I get that running? Michael

You could create a plugin that triggers getmail every time IMAP's STATUS command is sent. Or probably best to do it on mailbox_opened hook (in v2.0).

Upgrade to 1.1.x or 1.2.x? I believe that many people consider 1.0.x to be hideously ancient. I believe that many people on this list will be significantly reluctant to help you with anything before 1.2.x. Version 2.0.0 was declared the current release version last Monday (16 Aug 2010), with the previous current release version before that being 1.2.13. I believe that many people on this will not consider "But My Distro Provides Version X!" to be a valid excuse. Find a more up-to-date binary package, upgrade your distro, install from source; there is always a way. Bill

[Dovecot] wake up getamail on imap request
by Peter Dungel 18 Aug '10

18 Aug '10

Hi, i've set up a little mailserver for my homeoffice, and after some problems everything works fine for me, I've some virtual users which get their mail delivered via getmail, and I can access my mails from my windows mailclient. The only issue I'm still facing is, that I don't like to run getmail as a cronjob that connects to my online mailboxes every minute or so, I'd rather want it to do so every thirty minutes and whenever I request so by fetching my mails at my mailclient (e.g. outlook), I've font the Fetchmail Wakeup plugin, but according to the description this only works for version 1.1.x and 1.2.x but I'm running 1.0.13. Anyone has any idea how to solve this or has a workaround? Thanks Petr

Hello, I'm testing Dovecot 2.0. I plan to use Dovecot 2.0 with thousands of domains per server. My user base is under virtual MySQL. when I add a user in the database, it is automatically created in the structure of Dovecot at first login. Is there a easy way to delete a user ? Thank you. -- Atenciosamente, Thiago Henrique (21)2233-5950 ramal 27 Infra Estrutura Linux Hostnet Internet - www.hostnet.com.br Digirati Telecomunicações - www.digirati.com.br

[Dovecot] reverting back to 1.2.12
by Dennis Clarke 18 Aug '10

18 Aug '10

ver 1.2.13 is also tossing these : Aug 18 03:37:49 dovecot: Warning: I/O leak: 805c600 (27) Aug 18 03:37:49 dovecot: Warning: I/O leak: 805c600 (25) Aug 18 03:37:49 dovecot: Warning: I/O leak: 805c600 (23) I have reverted back to 1.2.12 which "just works". I will go back and recompile 1.2.13 and 2.0.0 again. Maybe the addition of postgressql libs linked in or the use of GCC is the issue on Solaris. Not sure but 1.2.12 to 1.2.13 did not go smoothly at all. Dennis

[Dovecot] 2.0 and vpopmail

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, Does 2.0 require a specific version of vpopmail? I'm getting this on my build attempt : /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/dovecot-2.0.0/src/auth/passdb-vpopmail.c:185: undefined reference to `vauth_load_module' Yes, it's an RPM, that's how I roll. I'm not finding vauth_load_module anywhere on my system.. I'm running vpopmail 5.4.30 which is, I believe the latest stable release..
