[Dovecot] Feature Requests
by Jonathan Vanasco 16 Aug '05

16 Aug '05

I put them on the wiki page, but I'm not sure if they're read often or whatever. a - Sqlite support I know its been talked about, but it wasn't on the request/todo page until i threw it on there, so i wanted chime in for it as well b - User configurable ports ports are hardcoded in the c source file. it would be nice if these were the defaults, and could be overwritten on the configure file. this way we can run dovecot to test on the same machine as an active imap server, or just have more control over how we run it

And please keep list-traffic on the list.

[Dovecot] Wrong dates in Outlook
by Alexander Tamm 16 Aug '05

16 Aug '05

Hello, We're migrating from Ipswitch Imail to Dovecot. There seems to be a problem with Outlook after converting the emails with mb2md and whole bunch of perl scripts to correct all the idiotic mistakes that Imail has made. Outlook will display the date and time of the conversion as the date of the message, rather than using the Date: header. The same does not occur in Thunderbird or Horde/IMP. Any ideas? Alex

[Dovecot] test80: in production, occasional assert
by Jeff A. Earickson 16 Aug '05

16 Aug '05

Timo, Test-80, running on our production IMAP server. Setup: Solaris 9, compiled with gcc 4.0.1, mbox format, configured like so: VERSION=test80 CC=gcc CFLAGS="-g -O" CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/openssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/opt/openssl/lib \ ./configure --prefix=/opt/dovecot.$VERSION --with-ssl=openssl \ --with-ssldir=/opt/openssl/ssl --with-rawlog --enable-debug > configure.out Still seeing occasional assert messages in the syslog: IMAP(username): file mbox-sync-update.c: line 442 (mbox_sync_update_header_from): assertion failed: (ctx->mail.uid == 0 || ctx->mail.uid_broken || ctx->mail.uid == mail->uid) How do I give you useful debug info? Run the offending mailbox thru mboxcrypt.pl, try to reproduce with the mailbox, send the mailbox in? Otherwise test-80 is working great... Jeff Earickson Colby College

[Dovecot] postfix+dovecot+sieve?
by Jon Salz 15 Aug '05

15 Aug '05

Quick newbie question... is anybody using postfix+dovecot+sieve? Postfix doesn't natively support Sieve, and neither does Dovecot, so I'm not quite sure how to simply add Sieve to my configuration. Thanks in advance... - Jon
