[Dovecot] Problem with pop3 and alpha3
by Alfonso Sparano 16 Oct '05

I don't know. I'm not tried with a real client but only with telnet. I would like to be sure that everything is correct before try with outlook/Eudora/thunderbird at all. -----Messaggio originale----- Da: dovecot-bounces(a)dovecot.org [mailto:dovecot-bounces@dovecot.org] Per conto di Andrew Hutchings Inviato: domenica 16 ottobre 2005 10.21 A: dovecot(a)dovecot.org Oggetto: Re: [Dovecot] Problem with pop3 and alpha3 On Sun, 2005-10-16 at 10:06 +0200, aspar(a)unisa.it wrote: > Hi all, I have a problem with dovecot-alpha3 and pop3 protocol (on a tru64 > 5.1a...) > > In my Maildir/cur there are 8144 mails and if I use pop3 protocol I receive in > the output 8146 line instead of 8144.

[Dovecot] new to dovecot
by John O'Loughlin 15 Oct '05

15 Oct '05

Hello all I'm new to dovecot (and imap in general!) having installed only only today. My current set up is exim as MTA with procmail delivering /var/spool/mail/%user (which gets nfs exported). We also have a pop3 server running as well. I'm moving to new machine and though I'd look at dovecot and squirrelmail. In /etc/dovecot.conf I'm confused by the default_mail_env, what exactly are we trying to set here? We have $MAIL set already, so for example what does the line: default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u try to set Cheers John

[Dovecot] Same email recieved
by Bob Hope 14 Oct '05

14 Oct '05

Some of my users seem to be receiving the same e-mail over and over. This doesn't happen all the time, just once in a while it seems to get stuck in a loop. Is it possible that dovecot is the culprit here or is this a problem with something else? I'm running Postfix/amavisd/dovecot on Slackware 10.1. Regards, Savage

[Dovecot] 1.0a3: assert and core dump

Timo, A rare assert and core dump out of 1.0alpha3. My setup: Solaris 9, mbox format, using imap only. Built dovecot with gcc 4.0.1.

[Dovecot] Message not
by Andrew Hutchings 12 Oct '05

12 Oct '05

Hi, I'm sure this is a bug fixed in CVS or something stupid I did in the config but here goes: I am getting at least one complaint a day about POP login customers getting 'Message not found' errors while getting their mail. The only thing I can find in the messages that could be related is: Oct 12 15:40:18 svr21 dovecot: pop3(user): Mailbox init failed top=0/0, retr=0/ del=0/0, size=0 It doesn't happen on a very high percentage of logins which makes me think its a locking problem of some kind. Any ideas?

[Dovecot] dovecot won't launch
by Chad Cunningham 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

Hi, I downloaded the latest dovecot (1.0 alpha 3) and tried numerous installs which get me nothing. No errors, no crashes, no segfaults and no running dovecot. It just seems to silently exit. I was trying to build with mysql support but I've also tried a plain old install, just configure, make install, etc. I get nada. strace doesn't show anything, at least as far as I can tell. No messages are logged. No output to the console. Any ideas? My only guess, no idea if it matters, is that dovecot doesn't like the fact that this is a VPS (User Mode Linux, Fedora Core 3). But I don't see any reason why not, other mail servers are pretty happy... Here's the strace: -bash-3.00# strace dovecot execve("/usr/local/sbin/dovecot", ["dovecot"], [/* 17 vars */]) = 0 uname({sys="Linux", node="monkey", ...}) = 0 set_tid_address(0) = -1 ENOSYS (Function

[Dovecot] Building dovecot with SSL support on Solaris
by Christian Schmidt 10 Oct '05

10 Oct '05

Hi all, I'm just trying to build dovecot-1.0.alpha3 on a Solaris 9 machine with SSL support. No matter which options I call ./configure with - it always results in: Install prefix ...................... : /usr/local File offsets ........................ : 64bit I/O loop method ..................... : poll File change notification method ..... : none Building with SSL support ........... : no <-- ! Building with IPv6 support .......... : yes Building with pop3 server ........... : yes Building with mail delivery agent .. : yes Building with user database modules . : static passdb passwd passwd-file checkpassword (modules) Building with password lookup modules : passwd passwd-file shadow pam checkpassword (modules) Some more details: $ uname -a SunOS ns 5.9 Generic_117171-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-280R $ /usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl version OpenSSL 0.9.7e 25 Oct 2004 On another system, the build succeeds - including SSL support: $ uname -a SunOS excalibur 5.9 Generic_117171-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-100 $ /usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl version OpenSSL 0.9.7d 17 Mar 2004 I have tried lots of hints Google found in the mailing list archives, but none of them succeeded. I'm looking forward to getting any further hints. If you need some further information, I will post it. Regards & thanks in advance, Christian -- Alle Dinge geschehen aus Notwendigkeit.

[Dovecot] Backup Maildir
by Gabe Granger 09 Oct '05

09 Oct '05

Hi All, I'm currently doing nightly full backups of /home. I'm not sure if a full back up is the best way to do backups. I know with my fileserver i do weekly full backup and daily incremental which would file on those type of files. I guess my question to the group is, how do you guys backup Maildir? whats the best way of doing it? -- Gabe Granger Pancentric results-driven communications and e-solutions +44 (0) 20 8877 0230 http://www.pancentric.com
