And I don't like to enable pop for the outside world. a) Firewall. Probably a better idea. b) Fail authentication if non-secure authentication comes from outside world. If you're using SQL as passdb this would be easy.

I > checked on the machine acting as a server and the folder is created and > the subscriptions file is updated, and the dot at the beginning is > indeed absent. So I see no reason why this should not work. First you could try manually the same thing. Check that all mailboxes really are listed: 1 LIST "" * Try creating + subscribing: 2 CREATE mailbox 3 SUBSCRIBE mailbox Check that it's found from subscriptions: 4 LSUB "" * And might as well check that LIST also finds it: 5 LIST "" * If none of that showed anything broken, you could check what Thunderbird and Dovecot talk with each others and see if there's something wrong with that. For example use rawlog. http://dovecot.org/bugreport.html#sniffing Also if you do this, it might be a good idea to change Dovecot's internal files to begin with a dot so that user is allowed to create e.g. "dovecot" mailbox. #define SUBSCRIPTION_FILE_NAME "subscriptions" #define MAILDIR_INDEX_PREFIX "dovecot.index" You should also check that deleting mailboxes works right. There's this: #define MAILDIR_UNLINK_DIRNAME MAILDIR_FS_SEP_S"DOVECOT-TRASHED" I'm not sure how it works if you delete the separators. If LIST sees such a directory it goes and deletes it. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

This also explains the rest of the errors, Dovecot v1.0 doesn't handle very nicely these UIDVALIDITY changes (v1.1 does better). For this to happen: 1. The index files have to be created. 2. dovecot-uidlist file has to be recreated without seeing the existing index. 3. Accessing mailbox again with the new dovecot-uidlist and old indexes causes this error. So the real reasons for these could include temporarily using different index file paths, restoring indexes/uidlists from backups, temporarily using index files for accessing other mailbox. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

It's a per-user setting, and it's possible to override the global quota by having userdb return a quota field.

If you want to enforce quota, use Dovecot's deliver or some other MDA that supports Maildir++ quota. Postfix's internal MDA doesn't. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

[Dovecot] Tbird-DC state problem
A experienced sysadmin who's doing some guinea-pig use of DC just ran into the following situation: 1) He brings up SeaMonkey 2) About 30 minutes later, he's in the middle of some involved messaging, mistakenly hits the redX in the top right of the SeaMonkey window, knocking himself out of SeaMonkey. 3) He immediately reinvokes SeaMonkey, all appeared to be OK Viewed some e-mail and some web page references, tries to send a message and then the Send hung for a time with a message "Sending Authenticate Info"..after some minutes, a new E-mail window appeared stating the "Server reported a timeout". As far as the message, it was apparently sent successfully, and saved in the Sent folder successfully. 4) He calls me in. I look through the syslog logging. There is nothing in the syslog critical stuff...and everything in the maillog looks normal. 5) He starts another message, tries to save it to Drafts and that hangs 6) I look more closely at the maillog and see a lot of logins (one a minute in some cases, but all appear to have been cleanly executed) plus one bunch of disconnected messages with one disconnected in idle in the period when the write to the Drafts would have been hung. Could it be that DC was in the middle of clean up in the initial disconnect/reconnect and SeaMonkey came back in the middle of it and one or the other's state tables got messed up (or both of them)? Shutting out of SeaMonkey, waiting a minute and reconnecting seems to have gotten things working again. Any comments? Anything I should be looking for?

Is there an override on a per mailbox setting in the mailbox folder?
Do Postfix and PostfixAdmin also have their custom settings?
The problem doesn't appear to apply at the delivery stage, so it
