[Dovecot] UIDPLUS Status?
by Chris Alexander 25 Aug '04

25 Aug '04

I saw in the archives that UIDPLUS had been removed from dovecot back in June. Are there any plans to re-implement? I have a Windows/Eudora user that wants UIDPLUS so the client side spam filtering works. Thanks. -- Chris Alexander UNIX Network Administrator, Information Networks and Systems Division Communications Research Centre [ http://www.crc.ca ] Government of Canada [ http://www.gc.ca ]

[Dovecot] Problem with emails larger than 10k
by Peter Hessler 25 Aug '04

25 Aug '04

I cannot download emails that are larger than 10k. I can download them fine with test32. I am running test35 on OpenBSD/macppc -current. I am downloading the files with Sylpheed-Claws 0.9.9claws on OpenBSD/macppc -current (different machines), over pop3-ssl on IPv6. Problem still occurs with IPv4. On the large files, the download hangs at 4.0k. Multiple small emails work fine. -- A day for firm decisions!!!!! Or is it?

[Dovecot] [PATCH] move highest_fd calculations to ioloop-select.c
by Andrey Panin 25 Aug '04

25 Aug '04

Hello, ioloop->highest_fd is used by ioloop-select.c only, so its handling can be moved out of generic ioloop code. Attached patch (agains -test35) does exactly this. Please consider applying. Best regards. -- Andrey Panin | Linux and UNIX system administrator pazke(a)donpac.ru | PGP key: wwwkeys.pgp.net

I guess ssl_ca_file is newer than 0.99. I have the same settings (debian -sarge) and i am using ssl_cert_file and ssl_key_file to get the certificate working. I checked ssl_ca_file and i got the same error, nevertheless it's in the recent dovecot.conf file from 1.x.testing, therefore it should be newer than 0.99.

[Dovecot] Unknown setting: ssl_ca_file
by Jacob Elder 24 Aug '04

24 Aug '04

I am using 0.99.10.7-1 on Debian, and I'm having some trouble with SSL. I purchased a certificate from Thawte and I can't figure out how to tell dovecot about the CA cert. Adding ssl_ca_file to my configuration produces "Unknown setting: ssl_ca_file" on dovecot startup. Postfix has a smtpd_tls_CAfile argument and that part is working fine. Is this a Debian-specific problem or is ssl_ca_file newer than 0.99.10.7? -- Jacob Elder

[Dovecot] Underquoted macros in aclocal (was: MIME structure intermittently lost)

(Seems to be working well for us.) I just built this and it has a lot of complaints about underquoted macros in aclocal.

[Dovecot] Newbie: dovecot not running.
by Simon Waters 23 Aug '04

23 Aug '04

Okay, sure it must be trivial.... I have old Redhat box, want a quick and dirty IMAP server, thought good time to try out dovecot (I'd rather it had Debian on too ;). Downloaded and compiled from source - no options to configure. Auth data is in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow (as well as NIS). vi /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf as expected. Disable ssl in conf. Basically email is in mbox format in /var/spool/mail/%u Should go somewhere ~%u/mail is fine, as would be ~%u/Mail (I don't care at the moment). created a user "dovecot..." to run as and edited conf file. If I run /usr/local/sbin/dovecot it terminates without errors, the fork is completing I think, and the main program returns as expect. Running imap-auth from xinetd gets me a greeting banner, but then the connection is closed. Trying to run "imap" directly just dies in a blizarrd of "dot locking" errors and the like, where it seems to ignore the locking directives (should I set an env or some such?), but I think that it is basically running (it creates indexes in ~/mail/...mumble) but complains about the dotlocking, and then spews an internal error (which it claims is logged to server log?). I'm off to try auth_verbose, but any tips or hints appreciated. I'm assuming /usr/local/sbin/dovecot is what was called "master" given it is in the master src directory. Simon

[Dovecot] 1.0-test33
by Timo Sirainen 23 Aug '04

23 Aug '04

http://dovecot.org/test/ I think I found and fixed the last bug that was giving me problems. Now that Dovecot has been successfully working for a few hours, time for a new test release :) This release has major changes, so there might still be some bugs left. Be careful. If you're upgrading from previous 1.0-test release, you must delete all existing dovecot.index.log files or you will get errors. So, the changes are: - All network sockets are nonblocking now and all the waiting is done in a single event loop. This required tons of changes all over the code. - Transaction log file doesn't use locks for reading anymore - Some mbox fixes - search text was broken

[Dovecot] MIME structure intermittently lost
by Kenneth Porter 23 Aug '04

I'm using Dovecot-0.99.10.5-0.FC2 on Fedora Core 2 on the server, and Mulberry 3.1.6 over Win2kSP4 on the client. Intermittently messages with multiple parts show up as a single text part. I'm not sure if it's Mulberry or Dovecot. I just turned on IMAP logging and restarted Mulberry and a message with two text/plain parts that wasn't showing the 2nd part is now displaying it correctly. I hate heisenbugs!
