[Dovecot] Stopping certain users from using IMAP, or POP3, etc.
by David Craigon 02 Mar '07

02 Mar '07

Hi there, I'm building a mail system for an ISP. We want to be able to turn on or off IMAP or POP3 access for certain customers- basically we want to be able to offer a customer POP3 access, unless they pay us some more money, in which case they get IMAP The username and password will remain the same, and are driven out of a postgres database. The best way I've though of doing this so far is by defining separate auth systems for IMAP and POP. Is this the best way? A gold star is available if you can think of a way that if they try and use IMAP but haven't paid for it it rejects them with "Give us all your money..." or some such.

[Dovecot] Doing %var-substitutions in a plugin...
by Nicolas Boullis 02 Mar '07

02 Mar '07

Hi, I'm trying to write a plugin that need to do some %var-substitution. Is there a way to get the var_expand_table used by the process? If not, I guess I could use getenv("USER") (for %u, %n and %d) and getenv("HOME") (for %h); but what for the other ones? Cheers, Nicolas

[Dovecot] Thunderbird : open() failed with index file /home/XYZ/mail/.imap/Trash/dovecot.index: Not a directory
by Charles Bueche 02 Mar '07

02 Mar '07

Hi, almost everything is in the subject. Server : Solaris 9 /SPARC, Dovecot 1.0.rc22 Client : Mac OS X 10.4.8 (8L2127) Kernel-Version: Darwin 8.8.1 Thunderbird is: german Version 1.5.0.9 (20061207) With OS X Mail.app, message deletion works. With Thunderbird, a warning popup appear on the desktop. English translation is about "command failed, internal error occurred". The server log shows : > Mar 1 10:50:35 ZZZ dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(XYZ): open > () failed with index file /home/XYZ/mail/.imap/Trash/dovecot.index: > Not a directory After checking, I see "Trash plugin was more or less broken with multiple namespaces and with multiple trash mailboxes" in rc24 release notes. Would an update to rc24 fix my user's issue ? Hints welcome, Charles -- Charles Bueche <charles(a)bueche.ch> sand, snow, wave, wind and net -surfer A-Cat SUI 192

[Dovecot] Deleting when Over Quota
by Daniel Watts 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hi All, I've read a bit about this but don't really see a full solution anywhere. Has anyone actually got a good fix for this? Telling a user they are over quota then not allowing them to delete anything does seem the height of perversion. =) Question is - is this even a problem for the IMAP server? Or should the MUA be detecting over quota problems and then issuing the right commands to delete messages WITHOUT the copy to Trash? Lastly - even if it is the MUA's responsibility - will Dovecot not still have a problem with indexes? I suspect perhaps not if: A. When using FS Quotas you store the indexes in a non quota partition B. When using other quotas (dirsize / maildir++), Dovecot does not count the index files when counting up the usage. Is B true? Best wishes, Daniel

[Dovecot] Still issues with new message count...
by Brian Taber 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

I am still having issues with new message count. When I move a message to another folder, it counts that message as new until you go into that folder. Is there a way I can solve this? Could it have something to do with NFS? I have tried all the NF workarounds with no luck... I have also tried NFSv3 and NFSv4, no difference. I store the indexes on the local drive...
