[Dovecot] Convert to DBox
I am thinking of trying out dbox format. I am currently using maildir. Is it possible for me to switch just one user account to dbox while keeping all of my other users on maildir? If so, how would I go about doing that? Here is a copy of my dovecot -n: # 1.2.5: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.30-1-amd64 x86_64 Debian squeeze/sid ext3 base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ protocols: imap imaps pop3 pop3s ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/certs/stikman-godaddy.crt ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/private/stikman-godaddy.key disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot//login login_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_location: maildir:/home/vmail/%u mail_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/pop3 lda: postmaster_address: postmas...@stikman.com mail_plugins: cmusieve sendmail_path: /usr/sbin/sendmail auth_socket_path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master auth default: mechanisms: plain login username_format: %Lu passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd args: uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/vmail/%u socket: type: listen master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 384 user: vmail group: vmail plugin: sieve: sieve Thanks, Jeff

Okay, I made the change to using mailbox_transport instead of

change one thing. Line 5.1 was wrong. I needed it to say "-d
${user}" instead of recipient. It was looking for u...@domain instead
of just user which is was exists in my userdb file. I decided against
putting everything in "/home/vmail/domain/user" because when I would
log in via IMAP it didn't know my domain name. I am assuming that is
once again because my userdb only has user names and not domains.
Just I just went with "/home/vmail/user" and it is working. I don't
think I will be using more than one domain, so it should be fine.
Thanks for everybody's help with this. Rather painless. The only
problem I had was with the user name but I got it resolved.

I have come across my more problem. If somebody sends mail to JEFF

Oh, sorry, /home/vmail/%u of course.

Right.

Re: [Dovecot] Setup Question
Thank you. I like that suggestion. I will probably do that.
Any recommendation on moving the mail over from the old location to the
new location without messing up any of the date/time stamps on the
messages? I use maildir format.

Looks about right... I have a very similar setup, but i authenticate

If you have or may get more domains i would set up mail_location to
something like this: /home/vmail/%d/%u that way you are ready for
growth and everything is kept organized by domains. Just a thought.

I guess I need to figure something else out. So, if I was create virtual users I would be able to use the +ext filter method?
[Dovecot] Address Extensions with System Users
I am using Dovecot 1.2RC2 with Postfix 2.5.5. Everything is running fine. I would like to start using address extensions and have e-mail automatically filtered into folders based on the folder name after the "+" in the e-mail address. I only use system users, no virtual users. I have Deliver configured in main.cf as: mailbox_command = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver Everything I can find about setting this up applies to virtual users which I do not have.

The expire database is empty, so it has nothing to do. Expire plugin updates the database while messages are being saved/copied to the expire mailboxes. So if I understand correctly (obviously not *sigh*) :-) I have Trash and Spam defined as expire databases, I sent a number of messages, and then deleted them. They were then in Trash. I manually moved a bunch of messages to Spam as well. The Spam messages were > 14 days old. I then reran dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool I still get no events in /var/log/messages, and my Spam messages from Jan 22 are still there. On the bright side I do have an expire.db file now with data in it, tho I can't quite figure out what makes it update. shouldn't the messages > 14 days old (the date I have set in.conf) go away? It is not based on the message date, it is based on the date those messages got moved into the expire folders. You will have to wait 14 days from the date they got moved into Spam or Trash. Jeff

Re: [Dovecot] download IMAP folders via POP3
Sahil Tandon wrote: Jakob Grie?mann wrote: I know my question might sound a little bit strange, but is it possible to download IMAP folders via POP3? I have clients who use POP3 on their main machines and IMAP on their "on the road" notebooks. It would be good to download all folders created on the notebook via POP3 to the main desktop. POP3 should download the newly created folders, unless there are some other idiosyncrasies of which we're not aware. But as a matter of practice, why the mismatch? Better to have users on IMAP from desktop and notebook. Unless this is a mandate "from above" or a legacy issue, move everyone to IMAP! Are you sure about that? I was always under the impression that POP3 was only able to download the INBOX. You need to use IMAP to see any other folders that are created on the server. Jeff

AFAIR you have to write message rules to move it. OE does. In the server configuration options you can select to save Drafts, Sent Items, and Deleted Items on the server. It then lets you select which folders for each of those settings. Jeff

I fail to see a contradiction. Frank described one very useful method of testing a beta product derived from an existing FBSD port. I use tinderbox myself, but that is irrelevant. If the OP had asked that question on the FBSD forum, he might well have received a satisfactory response also. The OP, whom obviously is not fully aware of the build intricacies on a FBSD system -- not that I claim to be either -- wanted Timo to invest his time in building a custom product for him to test. Now that I consider absurd. I disagree with that statement. I think the OP was stating that the build instructions on the wiki never mention anything about possibly having to use gmake instead of make in a FreeBSD system. I think it was very usual information that should be added to the wiki for anybody who uses FreeBSD to build that might have the same setup as the OP. This mailing list and the wiki are support tools for Dovecot and I think we need to use them that way. Jeff

two columns Received Date and Date in Thunderbird 3.0a1pre were the same.
I did a test with Squirrelmail and here is what I see:

It appears the client is asking for the Received Date, which is the
INTERNALDATE and it gets the header date field. But, what is
interesting is that Squirrelmail will always show that e-mail as 9:23
for me if I select the "Sort By Received Date" setting in the options.
Oh, now reading the setting, it will only change the sort and not change
what time is displayed. I guess it will only show the time from the
Date header and not from the Received header.

[Dovecot] Received Date vs Date Header
I am trying to figure out why my mail clients are not correctly showing
me the received date versus the date header date. I am using Dovecot
1.1B9. Here is a copy of the rawlog from Dovecot when I started up the
client. Is Dovecot supposed to be sending the received date and the
date header during this conversation?

I am using Maildir and the date and time of those files from "ls -l" are
"2007-11-30 16:48" and "2007-11-30 16:49". The mail client
(Thunderbird) showed the received date/time and date date/time as
"2007-11-30 3:24" and "2007-11-30 3:25"
Thanks for any help you can offer me.

[Dovecot] 1.1Beta5 Issue
I installed 1.1Beta 5 this weekend. I had no problems at all yesterday using Thunderbird. I started reading my mail with Squirrelmail this morning and everything was going pretty smooth. I tried to delete a daily e-mail I receive from careerbuilder.com and the IMAP process shot up to 99.9% and I was not able to do anything in Squirrelmail. I killed that process and tried it again just to be sure what it was. And it did it again. I can delete any other message with no problems, just that one causes me issues. I am not sure if Thunderbird is the same, I will have to wait until I get home tonight. If there is any troubleshooting you would like me to do, please let me know. Jeff

[Dovecot] Squirrelmail Problem with 1.1 Beta 3
I just installed 1.1 beta 3 and noticed a problem when sending an e-mail with Squirrelmail. When I hit send, I get the following error in my log: Oct 16 11:35:54 apple dovecot: IMAP(jeff): Disconnected: EOF while appending bytes=1851/5926 Oct 16 11:35:54 apple imapproxyd[9132]: Raw_Proxy(): IMAP server unexpectedly closed the connection on sd 9 I am also using imapproxy. I wasn't sure if that line would help also. In Squirrelmail I get a LOGOUT message when it tries to redisplay the INBOX listing. The message does get sent correctly, but it does not get copied to my Sent Items folder. I went and deleted all of the dovecot.index* files and now I don't get that error anymore, but I now get the following error. The message is now copied to the Sent Items folder. Oct 16 11:44:45 apple dovecot: IMAP(jeff): Cache file /home/jeff/.maildir/.Sent Items/dovecot.index.cache: Newly added field got lost unexpectedly Jeff
[Dovecot] OT: Cron Output When Deleting Files
I have a Dovecot setup for a personal e-mail server. I have a cron job setup each evening which runs the following command to delete old messages from my Deleted Items folder. find ./ -type f -ctime +14 | xargs rm I don't know that much about bash scripting. I would like the output to tell me how many files were deleted. Can anybody share with me how can I get that done, or point in the correct direction? Thanks, Jeff

Here is the first .in file from the rawlog A6 NAMESPACE A7 SELECT "Inbox" A8 SEARCH SINCE 6-Sep-2007 OK, this finds the messages based on their INTERNALDATE. With maildir that means the files' mtime. Are all the mtimes older than 6 Sep? If not, try deleting dovecot.index.cache file to see if it helps. Out of 13 messages in my inbox, 12 of them are newer than 6 Sep. I deleted the dovecot.index.cache file and it still will not display any messages in my inbox when I have the setting to only display the most current 30 days worth of mail. Jeff

Just to throw in one more comment. In the dovecot.conf file it also
mentions that you should use the same separator between namespaces.
Otherwise you might confuse the client.

Can somebody help me with setting that up in Dovecot? Thanks, Jeff Okay, I feel pretty stupid now. It was not a problem with namespaces at all. But, I think there is a problem somewhere. I had the phone setup to display the last 30 days of messages. When I would sync it up, it did not display any messages. That is why I thought something was messed up with the namespaces. So, I changed the setting to display All messages and then they appeared. I currently have 20 messages in my inbox, of which 17 of those are in the past 30 days. So, what would have changed between version 1.0.5 and 1.1beta2 to somehow make the phone think all of the messages are older than 30 days? On a side note, none of my folders were displaying. That is also why I thought the namespaces were messed up. It turns out I needed to select Show All Folders. Once I did that all of my folders appeared. I apologize for wasting anybody's time on the namespace problem. But, I do think there is a problem with the date being sent over the IMAP connection. Jeff

[Dovecot] Namespace Question
I installed 1.1Beta2 over 1.0.5 last night. My 1.0.5 setup was running with no problems at all. Stupid me overwrote my dovecot.conf file with a vanilla one. I know I know, backup!!! I am pretty sure my old dovecot.conf file did not specify any namespaces, but I could be mistaken. My Thunderbird and Squirrelmail are working fine on the new 1.1Beta2 setup. But, my smartphone running Windows Mobile 5.0 does not see the inbox or my folders. Does anybody know what might be different between 1.0.5 and 1.1Beta2 in regards to pocket outlook? This is on a Gentoo system. Here is my dovecot-n output. apple dovecot # dovecot -n # 1.1.beta2: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf protocols: imap imaps pop3 pop3s listen: [::] ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/dovecot/server.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/dovecot/server.key ssl_cipher_list: ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2 disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_location: maildir:%h/.maildir mail_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 auth default: passdb: driver: pam args: * userdb: driver: passwd Thanks, Jeff
