[Dovecot] (userdb/ldap) Set home dovecot variable - How?
by k bah 27 Mar '08

27 Mar '08

Dovecot version dovecot-1.0.rc14-7 (opensuse) Postfix is using Dovecot LDA. I'm getting this error message, and I guess it's going to be a problem on my next task, which is to set up sieve scripts. Is there something wrong/contraditory on my config or I forgot something? I want: /var/dovecot-tests/: where user's inbox resides /var/dovecot-tests/home/: home dir (users will not be system users, this home is for sieve) /var/dovecot-tests/data/: mbox --- error msg --- ---

[Dovecot] Moving main inbox file from /var/mail to ~/mail
by Romain 26 Mar '08

26 Mar '08

Hi list, I am using Dovecot version 1.0.10 in a Debian package. At the moment, i have the main INBOX of each user in /var/mail/%u and others mboxes in ~/mail/. Here is the line coming from my /etc/dovecot/dovecont.conf mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u I would like to move the main inbox in each home folder with the rest of the others mboxes. What should be the process ? Should i only tkahe the network down, update my conf file and move the inbox of every user ? Or do I have to do something different ? Thanks Regards Romain romain(at)abakila(dot)net

[Dovecot] Changing the order of plugin execution.
by "Fábio M. Catunda" 25 Mar '08

25 Mar '08

Hi! I'm using an acl to avoid deletion of .Trash messages, but I also have mail_log plugin enabled, but I found out some logs of deletion on info.log: deleted: uid=218, msgid=<200802150943.25163.alessio(a)skye.it>, box=Trash The message is still there, but maillog logged that it have been deleted. I believe that this issue is related to the order that plugins are executes, is there a way to change it? dovecot version 1.0.13-1 debian package. Thanks!
