I installed Courier on Ubuntu (Gutsy) today. After making very few changes to the configuration via the web management interface (and then to iptables) I succesfully got mail delivered, but as a single flat file of concatenated email messages in the user's home directory named Maildir. I want it delivered as maildirs.
I have tried unsuccessfully to find solutions to this problem in the courier documentation, FAQs, and elsewhere. I would greatly appreciate any help with this problem. How is the choice of delivery method made? What does maildrop (I don't think I'm using maildrop) do when there is not a filter file either in /etc or $HOME (this is absent from the maildrop man page, which should probably be rectified). Thanks, Cedric Here's every reference to Maildir in my configuration. courierd:# Default deliveries to $HOME/Maildir courierd:# DEFAULTDELIVERY=./Maildir courierd:# ./Maildir" courierd:# any default local mail delivery instruction in place of ./Maildir. courierd:DEFAULTDELIVERY="./Maildir" courierd:MAILDROPDEFAULT=./Maildir imapd:##NAME: MAILDIRPATH:0 imapd:# MAILDIRPATH - directory name of the maildir directory. imapd:MAILDIRPATH=Maildir imapd-ssl:##NAME: MAILDIRPATH:0 imapd-ssl:# MAILDIRPATH - directory name of the maildir directory. imapd-ssl:MAILDIRPATH=Maildir maildirfilterconfig:MAILDIRFILTER=../.mailfilter maildirfilterconfig:MAILDIR=./Maildir pop3d:##NAME: MAILDIRPATH:0 pop3d:# MAILDIRPATH - directory name of the maildir directory. pop3d:MAILDIRPATH=Maildir pop3d-ssl:##NAME: MAILDIRPATH:0 pop3d-ssl:# MAILDIRPATH - directory name of the maildir directory. pop3d-ssl:MAILDIRPATH=Maildir sqwebmaild:##NAME: MAILDIRPATH:0 sqwebmaild:# MAILDIRPATH - directory name of the maildir directory. sqwebmaild:MAILDIRPATH=Maildir Here's my entire courierd: prefix="/usr" exec_prefix="/usr" PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin SHELL=/bin/bash DSNTOAUTHADDR=0 DYNAMICDELIVERIES=1 DEFAULTDELIVERY="./Maildir" MAILDROPDEFAULT=./Maildir ESMTP_CORK=1 ESMTP_BLOCKBACKSCATTER=smtp/dsn UUXFLAGS="-j -g C" ESMTP_USE_STARTTLS=1 LC_ALL=C COURIERTLS=/usr/bin/couriertls ESMTP_TLS_VERIFY_DOMAIN=0 TLS_PROTOCOL=SSL3 TLS_TRUSTCERTS=/usr/lib/courier/rootcerts TLS_VERIFYPEER=NONE -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web.com What can On Demand Business Solutions do for you? http://link.mail2web.com/Business/SharePoint ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
