[Dovecot] Trouble with managesieve symbolic link creation
by Daniela Silva 09 Apr '10

09 Apr '10

Hi, I've been trying to get managesieve to work on our installation, but although almost everything works fine the symbolic link from .dovecot.sieve to the sieve dir gets created with a / in the beginning: drwx------ 4 vmail users 128 2010-04-08 18:35 . drwxr-xr-x 5 vmail users 144 2009-08-28 18:26 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 vmail users 17 2010-04-08 18:35 .dovecot.sieve -> /sieve/ingo.sieve drwx------ 20 vmail users 952 2010-04-08 16:47 maildir drwx------ 3 vmail users 104 2010-04-08 18:35 sieve Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? You can find the dovecot configuration below.

[Dovecot] Sieve scripts
by Nick Lunt 09 Apr '10

09 Apr '10

Hi I have a simple sieve script to discard email with a certain string in the subject. I now need to beef this up a bit with the following: if header :contains "subject" "A" and "B" and not "C" discard if header :contains "subject" "A" and "D" and not "C" discard else pass Maybe my google skills are failing but I can't find much info on creating sieve scripts. Can anyone point me in the right direction to achieve this please ?

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.0 and QUOTA capability
by Frode Nordahl 09 Apr '10

09 Apr '10

Hello, In Dovecot 2.0 the QUOTA capability is not announced until after the user has logged in. This breaks quota-support in some webmail clients (Roundcube, Atmail, probably more). After searching the lists, I see that this was fixed as a bug back in 1.0, but I guess it crept back in. :-) 1.0.7: * OK Dovecot ready. . CAPABILITY * CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR SORT THREAD=REFERENCES MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT LITERAL+ IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE LOGIN-REFERRALS QUOTA STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN . OK Capability completed. 2.0: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. . capability * CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN . OK Capability completed. -- Frode Nordahl

[Dovecot] Shared folders in 2.0
by B. Johannessen 09 Apr '10

09 Apr '10

Anyone using shared folders in 2.0? If so, would you care to share your configuration? I'm seeing all kinds of strangeness, and the only consistent thing so far is that my results are thoroughly inconsistent. There's a very good chance this is all because of my very limited experience with Dovecot, which is why I'd like to be able to start my experiments from a known good configuration. Anyone? Bob

[Dovecot] Incoming mails + remote backup
by minim 08 Apr '10

Hello, I have to take two copy of incoming mails on different servers(local & remote). I am using plain server without any panel on it and using sendmail, pop3 server Dovecot. Is there a way(any configurations) to take a remote backup for all incoming mails? except configuring forwarder to each mail ID !!!! Waiting for suggestions. Thanks in advance -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Incoming-mails-%2B-remote-backup-tp28137629p28137629.… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Manage mails from server
by Неворотин Вадим 08 Apr '10

08 Apr '10

I've configure Dovecot with shared namespace and IMAP ACL's to make a group mailboxes. I use maildir mailboxes, and I add dovecot-shared file to each group mailbox. So each user with access to group mailbox has their own \Seen flag. And now I need automatically delete a mail from server after 2 weeks after each user has readed email in shared mailbox. How can I from, e.g. Perl script, get \Seen flag for user and mail and then correctly delete a mail from a server? I need to create fully automatical mail system, maybe there is some HOW-TO's or examples anywhere? And will I can in 2.0 use per-user \Deleted flag, not only \Seen?

[Dovecot] dovecot upgrade problems
by Cieslak, Andreas 08 Apr '10

08 Apr '10

Hi list, i made an upgrade from dovecot 1.0RC15 to 1.1.20 the default installation was under /etc/dovecot. The upgrade installation was made under /usr/local/etc. After that i changed all the paths in the /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf and the dovecot-binary to work with the new installation. Even path-changes were made for /etc/init.d/dovecot to work with the version 1.1.20. Changes in the /etc/init.d/dovecot: #### PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin DAEMON=/usr/local/sbin/dovecot NAME=dovecot DESC="mail server" test -x $DAEMON || exit 0 set -e # The init script should do nothing if dovecot is being run from inetd for p in `sed -r "s/^ *(([^:]+|\[[^]]+]|\*):)?(pop3s?|imaps?)[ \t].*/\3/;t;d" \ /etc/inetd.conf` do for q in `sed -r "s/^ *protocols[ \t]*=[ \t]*(([^\"]*)|\"(.*)\")/\2\3/;t;d" \ /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf` do if [ $p = $q ]; then exit 0 fi done done case "$1" in start) if grep protocols /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf | sed 's/#.*$//' | tr -d '"' | \ egrep -q '[^#]*(\bpop3s?\b|\bimaps?\b)'; then if [ -x /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login -a -x /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap ] \ || [ -x /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login -a -x /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3 ] #### If I leave the DAEMON-Path to =/usr/sbin/dovecot Dovecot is running fine!!!
