[Dovecot] Dovecot IMAP INBOX Namespace iPhone
by Andrew Goldschmidt 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Hi Guys, Our ISP who is hosting our email, recently moved our domain's email onto a new mail server, which is apparently running Dovecot, and has support for IMAP. * OK Dovecot ready. Most of the email clients have not had a problem moving from the old server to the new server. But some have! Including the iPhone users. The problem is that the INBOX is not directly accessible through the email client. (The following work perfectly: Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird - even though the INBOX is NOT specifically returned in the list of subscribed folders, it is there, with emails in it) 006 SELECT INBOX * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft $Forwarded $MDNSent Junk NonJunk) * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft $Forwarded $MDNSent Junk NonJunk \*)] Flags permitted. * 49 EXISTS * 0 RECENT * OK [UIDVALIDITY 1211291159] UIDs valid * OK [UIDNEXT 458] Predicted next UID 006 OK [READ-WRITE] Select completed. The iPhone simply refuses to allow access into the INBOX, but children folders work 100%. http://img395.imageshack.us/img395/891/img0003ui8.png I think that it has something to do with this: 006 LIST "" "*" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Junk E-mail" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Deleted Items" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Drafts" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Sent" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Work" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Friends" 006 OK List completed. There is NO INBOX specifically returned ... Zimbra Desktop Client refuses to even load any messages from the Inbox. Is this a problem at all? Is this something that my ISP should be able to fix? Is this a problem that can be fixed? http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/6793/thunderbirdmi8.jpg http://img365.imageshack.us/img365/1165/outlookul6.jpg Any ideas ??? Andrew

[Dovecot] migrating from specialized qpopper
by Cruzio Research 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

I'm hoping to migrate to dovecot from qpopper, with the eventual goal of enabling IMAP. However, my qpopper installation is fairly specialized, so I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone could get me headed down the best path. Here's the situation. I'm running FreeBSD and have a virtual domains setup with an extremely hacked LDA to do delivery to mailboxes within hashed directories under each virtual domain. Each domain also has a separate password file. This is NOT any virtual domain setup that you'd be familiar with, as it is an in-house creation that is about 9 years old now. I have 8000 users utilizing mailboxes on these domains, so having them reconfigure to use realms/domains in their login isn't really an option. With qpopper, we run it from inetd and use hosts.allow to call each instance with special information about the password file location, etc, like this: popper: ALL : twist (/pathto/bin/popper -d -s -T 300 -h %H -p /pathto/www.%H/passwd -x /pathto/www.%H/spool) This allows us to insert the domain (%H) based on what hostname the user is connecting to and change parameters based on that. Would their be any easy way to do this with dovecot? Thanks in advance for your help. Mark

[Dovecot] Problem with namespaces
by Toms Trankalis (SZ) 28 Aug '08

Hi, I'm trying to create Shared folder with subfolders "SPAM" and "NOT_Spam". Configuration: namespace public { separator = / prefix = Shared/ location = maildir:/vmail/%Ld/Shared:INDEX=/vmail/%Ld/%Ln/Shared hidden = no } Result I get (is exactly what I want): Inbox Drafts Sent Trash Shared --NOT_Spam --SPAM I can select SPAM and NOT_Spam, delete messages etc, but when I select "Shared", it shows: "Mailbox doesn't exist: Shared." As a client I used OE and Thunderbird. How to get rid of that message? I'm running latest Dovecot release 1.1.2 /Tom

[Dovecot] Dovecot and "deliver" disagree on character encodings
by Björn Persson 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Hi, I have a problem where Dovecot and its LDA seem to disagree on what character encoding should be used in Maildir names. I use Dovecot and Postfix on a Debian server. Mail is delivered by Dovecot LDA (called from .forward) and sorted according to a Sieve script into a number of Maildir folders in my home directory. Dovecot serves the mail over IMAP and I read it in Kmail. I originally created the mail folders with Kmail, and Dovecot created the directories with their names encoded in modified UTF-7, like in IMAP. The Sieve script is encoded in UTF-8, in accordance with RFC 3028. When the Sieve script specifies a mail folder with non-English letters in the name, the LDA doesn't put the messages in the corresponding modified-UTF-7-encoded directory. Instead it creates a new directory with the same name but encoded in UTF-8. That directory doesn't show up as a mail folder in Kmail, presumably because Dovecot considers the UTF-8-encoded name invalid. The Dovecot I got with Debian isn't exactly the most recent version. I searched for "Maildir", "deliver" and "Sieve" in the changelog, and didn't find anything about this. Should I consider upgrading anyway, abandoning the Debian package? Here are the details: Debian Etch (4.0) Dovecot 1.0.rc15 I don't know how to find out the version number of the Sieve plugin but it's the one that came with Dovecot in the Debian package.

[Dovecot] multiple password schemes and sql?
by R A 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Hello all. Just about to migrate from courier to dovecot, and figured I would as well try and get this working so I could use non plaintext mechanisms as well. I would like to offer at least: plain login digest-md5 cram-md5 and maybe more Everything works but this and have a testdb in sql with passwords like userid, password But get "Password query returned multiple matches" which indicates it doesnt try using any prefix and just get a hit on all "passwords" for that user. Is there any variable I can use in the sql query to use an extra field that contains the password type? plain and login should be stored in some crypted form, probably as md5 or sha256 hashes. Thankful for any insight into this...

[Dovecot] syncml with server push email
by Harondel J. Sibble 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Any recommendations for server push email using syncml and dovecot? I am familiar with Funambol for syncing pim info, but not used it for email. Are there any recommended opensource or commercial syncml servers that are known to integrate nicely with Dovecot 1.x? Googling hasn't really turned up much in the way of useful info. To mix it up a little, I was using Funambol for the Pim stuff, but ran into a bunch of issues and switched to eGroupWare which has it's own syncml ability which works quite nicely with my pda. I stopped using Funambol as the server didn't properly deal with the conversion from vcal to ical and as a result appointments synced on the pda end, always ended up 8 hours early :-( This was going from ThunderBird to Windows Mobile, so I am hoping to avoid this happening again. -- Harondel J.

[Dovecot] Multiple network interface question
by Mike Henry 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Hi all, Sorry if this question has been posted before. I have dug through the archives but haven't found any relevant answers to this question. I am running Dovecot on a server that serves a number of (virtual) domains each with a number of (virtual) users. To read mail I am providing a webmail client and have configured HTTPS connections using reverse DNS so that each domain has its own IP address and that each IP address gets mapped to a different virtual host. Each virtual host presents and HTTPS connection particular to their own domain using the SSL certificate for that domain so that each user only sees his or her own domain throughout. Is it possible to configure Dovecot so that mail-clients like Thunderbird or Outlook can connect via the default port using their own domain (maybe also using reverse DNS) and be presented with an SSL connection particular to that domain (i.e. using that domains certificate)? Any comments welcome. Thanks in advance, -Mike
