IMAP Servers
I'm currently using Courier-IMAP as my IMAP mail server, but the way it handles folders is a bit annoying (.FolderName/cur/ .FolderName/new/). Is this standard IMAP protocol, or do different servers handle this differently? Which other servers should I check out?

With Maildir you can have realy high load on the Server without any Locking of files, which mean, you can have incoming Messages at the same time, a client is connected and download files. Never I will change back to mailbox !

Is this the standard format? I had a lot of trouble getting this format to work well with Apple Mail. I'm pretty sure its Mail's issue as thunderbird works perfectly.

If you don't have fam setup to automatically notify clients of new mail, Mail.app will poll to look for new messages. It makes a separate IMAP connection for each folder [1]. So check your IMAPDAEMONS setting in /etc/courier/imapd (100 was recommended for 25 clients). Another factor is the max # of authdaemons. I'm pretty sure each IMAP connection generates an authentication request. If the clients obsessively check for new mail, you may need to increase the number of authdaemons you allow courier to startup.

Re: IMAP Servers
I do recall at one stage you had to create a symlink back to the base of the Maildir called INBOX for Mail.app to work: ln -s Maildir/ Maildir/.INBOX Hope that helps Ned We've experienced some issues with courier-imapd and Mail.app, specifically where certain IMAP sub-Maildir mailboxes wouldn't display within Mail.app. The mailboxes work great within Thunderbird.

Therefore it should work with IMAP, too. Although I haven't checked since I never came across a customer with a MUA that would support IMAP but fail to use SMTP-AUTH... Cheers, Marcel

Anyone know of any good way to implement IMAP before relay for those of us that left POP3 in the 80's where it belongs? ;-) FWIW, I was the original poster and I was only referring to the technique of grab mail before authentication - we use imap(s) as well. As myself and others have said, 'exact' works well for this. I'm going to look into smtp auth next, I need to find exim docs that talk about setting it up, but 'exact' is very simple and works easily enough... My original post was meant to find out what the modern way of doing this is - esmtp or smtp auth seems to be the answer. Take care, Dale -- Dale E. Martin, Clifton Labs, Inc.

IMAP automagic replication?
Hi guys, i have 2 systems up with Exim+Procmail+Courier-IMAPd serving my Maildirs.. So far, so easy and working fine. ;) Synchronization with mailsync does work ok, but takes kinda long (too long to make it run every few minutes) However, now i want to add some magic that when i read Mail on one system it's automagically synced to the other. A friend of mine proposed Cyrus and murder to setup a load balancer which would sync all imap requests altering one mailspool to the other. (and mail could be relayed to the other system thru a procmail recipe with setting an X-Loop header, so that'd be easy enough) Has anyone already gotten Courier to replicate or shall i give Cyrus a try? Thanks for your oppinion ;) -- Best regards, Kilian signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil
Re: IMAP automagic replication?
Hi again ;) maybe to clearify why not simply going NFS or whatever local filesys replication: the servers are not in one network, but the one is on 768/128 kBit DSL and shall serve for the local net it's in. I came accross the idea of using CODA for replication of the filesys even though the slow network connection, but somewhat i doubt it'll be performant over internet. Especially more performant than plain IMAP replication. Anybody having numbers on these ones? -- Best regards, Kilian signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil

Do I need to have a different instance of the server running for each protocol? i.e. one listening on each port that the three services use as standard? Is there a server that would do the job with just one instance listening on all three ports? Would there be any advantages or disadvantages to this? I'm thinking locking/concurrency/that-sorta-thing. How do you deal with this situation? Are there any gotchas I need to know about? I'm guessing that using Maildirs will alleviate many of the problems that mboxes would create ... Any pointers/suggestions/cluebats appreciated! jc What we run here, is standard uw-imap and popa3d, with stunnel. Works like a charm. I know courier could handle everything with a single hand and half the overhead, maybe someday I'll migrate every mbox into maildir and set that up, but in the mean time, it does a pretty job.

high memory problems with imap
What Debian Linux Kernel works best for High Memory ( 4GB) machines that are under heavy io loads ? I have a courier/postfix maildir IMAP mail server with 10GB of RAM. Occasionally, the memory gets all chewed up and it becomes unusable. I think it becoming unusable because of buffer bounces. However, the documentation tells me that the virtual memory allocation and bounce buffer problem was fixed in 2001. http://lwn.net/2001/0607/kernel.php3 Is anyone using high memory on servers with heavy loads ? I am running a 2.4.22 kernel on a machine with a 4GB. This machine is also under a heavy load as it servers up web-mail, but I have no problems with it. However things seem to turn experimental with more than than 4GB of RAM. -- -- Ted Knab Chester, MD 21619 -- 940216d6021602a41607166696c656c202778696368602d65616e637 02940226c696e646c69702c6f667560256675627478696e67602a416 0716e6563756e2a0 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: [IMAP] [Courier] Change the folder separator?
The courier-imap IMAP server uses the dot ('.') as a separator for
IMAP folders and not the slash ('/'). So, IMAP subfolders are not nice
Unix subdirectories.
I thought that you just had to have, for example:
Maildir/.folder1
Maildir/.folder2
Maildir/.folder3
I.e. the folders are subdirectories, but their names begin with a .. Has
it changed since woody or something?

perdition - squirrelmail (pop3 and imap)
Hi Guys We have squirrelmail running on our mail gateway for remote users to access their mail from, however sometimes the users mailboxes reside on other mailservers throughout the WAN. Is there a way to configure squirrelmail to use something like perhaps perdition to point to the users /var/mail/mbox on another mail server ? At the moment we are having to creating accounts on the gateway mail server when the user travels and then re-route their mail once they are back again.

courier imap + ldap + virtual mail domains
Hello, Hopefully someone can help me. I'm trying to put together a nice Exim4 + LDAP + Courier IMAP with Maildir mail server. I've got Exim4 delivering mail properly to Maildirs for virtual domains with the domains existing in LDAP and all virtual mail accounts in LDAP. Now I need to be able to retrieve the messages. Does anyone have an example of Courier IMAP that will work with LDAP and virtual domains? If you don't have that, Courier IMAP + LDAP (non virtual) or Courier IMAP without LDAP but handling virtual domains would at least get me going in the right direction. Or should I use a different IMAP server? Any help that can be given would be great. Thanks, -Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I have tried the following as sergested by the faq and in
mailing list...
CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/ssl/include
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib
export CPPFLAGS
export LDFLAGS
./configure \
--with-mysql-libs=/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql \
--with-mysql-includes=/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql \
--with-authmysql \ --with-authmysql=yes ...
and i still get .
configure: error: --with-authmysql specified but no mysqlclient.so
configure: error: /bin/sh ' .configure' failed for authlib
You need libmysqlclient10-dev to compile packages using the mysql client.
You also have to specify --with-mysql-{libs,includes} to point to
/usr/include/mysql and /usr/lib respectively.
I also think that there's no need to compile it yourself, since courier-imap
and authmysql are in stable (Woody). If you realyy want to compile your own,
then get the debianized sources with build dependencies and satisfy them. In
most cases backporting to woody is easier than building from un-debianized
sources.
In general, me (and most debian using people I know of) prefer to (in this
order):
- use the maintainer debs (from woody or sarge)
- backport (or use) debs from sid
- build own debs (merge fresh mainstream sources and the debianized stuff
from the maintainer)
- use mainstream sources only
Most of us are in the ISP business or work for medium to large sized
companies, and IMHO in this position it's wise to benefit from a packet
maintainer's work. If you need a software with no deb maintainer, give back
to the community and actually _become_ a maintainer for that software
package.
Just my 0.02 Euros.

Many thanks greg
Re: PLEASE HELP compiling courier-imap on woody
try this: remove all sources that you are downloaded and trying to compile. apt-get update apt-cache show courier - select your packages - example : apt-get install courier-authdaemon courier-pop - this will add you courier auth daemon and courier pop3 daemon edit the courer auth daemon config file and select your primary auth metod: vi /etc/courier/authdaemonrc Please advise me on where i can tell the ./configure where to find the libraries it requires ...

I use uw-imap on one of my servers, it works nice with mboxes. On another box i had to install imap with mysql users database, I tried courier-imap. It should work with mboxes, but it didn't, so i converted mboxes to Maildirs and made changes in db. It works fine for now... bye, /yanek -- Andrzej Dalasiski | We are Microsoft. http://www.ocelotl.eu.org | What you are experiencing JID:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | is not a problem; ICQ:149147731 GG:2327061| it is an undocumented feature.
Courier-IMAP+Postfix+LDAP
Hi all, Next week, we have to install a new server with Courier IMAP, Postfix and OpenLDAP for 200 users. Are there any site with documentation about this ?? And another question: How can I migrate mailbox accounts to Maildir boxes ??? Thank you very much for your help and sorry for my bad english. ___ Yahoo!
