I re-read the original... are you sure you are using Dovecot deliver? I didn't
think it created mailboxes for non-existent users? I mean is "+spam" a
user? If not then why is a directory being created? Just seems weird but
maybe deliver does that.
My only thought is make sure these lines (or something appropriate for your
setup) is in Postfix's main.cf.
recipient_delimiter = +
dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1
virtual_mailbox_domains = your.domain.here
virtual_transport = dovecot
Re: [Dovecot] plus-address delivery
Hmm... but it says "if the mailbox doesn't exist, it's created (unless -n is used)". The mailbox does exist. UNLESS, let me ask you this. I notice that the mailboxes are created with a "." before them. For example, if I "ls -la" in the users INBOX, I see user-created mailboxes, but they all start with a "." The mailbox that I'm trying to deliver is named ".spam" by the filesystem. I'm calling it "spam" in the amavisd-new config. Might that be the problem? Should I be calling it ".spam"? Would it actually be "+.spam"? - Jon On Jan 22, 2008, at 4:51 AM, Steffen Kaiser wrote: http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA - -m : Destination mailbox (default is INBOX).

Re: [Dovecot] plus-address delivery
I'm sorry I didn't clarify that. Yes, I am using Dovecot deliver as my
LDA. Here's the line I have in Postfix's master.cf:
dovecotunix - n n - - pipe
flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -f $
{sender} -d ${u
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -n -m ${extension}
I didn't think I had the "-m ${extension}", but it turns out I did.
Any other thoughts?

It is unclear if you are using Dovecot deliver or Postfix as your LDA.
The solution might be simply adding
recipient_delimiter = +
to Postfix's main.cf.
On the other hand, we are calling Dovecot deliver from Postfix from
the
master.cf file. deliver puts the mail into the extension folder or
INBOX if
the extension does not exist.
dovecot unix- n n - - pipe
flags=DOR user=vuser:vuser argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -n -m ${extension}
If you are using Dovecot deliver, I think you can do the same thing
using
sieve filters but from memory we ruled that out because it requires
every
user to have a sieve script. There was talk of implementing a global
sieve
script but that would only work from an include (which could get
deleted) and
every user would still need a sieve script.

[Dovecot] Create IMAP folders on first login?
Hello list, I am currently playing around with a virtual domain/virtual user setup and thanks to the documentation on both the Dovecot and the Postfix websites things are going swimmingly (apart from an oddity I will post separately about). On trying things out with different newly created virtual users I wondered if it was possible for Dovecot to create certain IMAP folders on the first login of the user? So that folders such "Drafts", "Sent" and "Trash" are created automatically for each new user (upon login). Or is this a job for the mail client, or for the admin who creates the new users? TIA!

Thanks for the reply. However, when I make the change, %d (domain) is

But I get:

In the sql auth file what is

And the query I use in the logs returns:

Where does Dovecot get the %d value when it tries to expand it?

Re: [Dovecot] Problem downloading mail with "large" attachment using Thunderbird....
Bazy, on 1/22/2008 5:09 AM, said the following: We have a user that is using Thunderbird on Windows to read mail over IMAP and it works ok, except for downloading mail with "large" attachment.. When opening a mail with a attachment with a size of 14-15MB, TB downloads the attachment seemingly ok, but TB stops when reaching 99%. After TB has stopped, if the user tries to select another mail, TB just hangs and it has to be closed and started again to work again... I have checked the dovecot log, but I can't find anything there... We have also tried to create a log in TB but everything looks ok there also... Is there a known problem with TB and "large" attachment or does anyone know how to fix this, if possible? v1.0.8 fixed this for maildir, v1.0.9 for mbox. We are still having this problem. (running v1.0.9) Did v1.0.10 fix it? It's not a dovecot issue, TB does that, try downloading atachaments with Sylpheed or with a webmail client. Balderdash. We use TBird on all 55+ machines in our office, and regularly deal with large attachments - some as large as 50MB... Of course, there is the *occasional* issue where someone tries to open an attachment before the message is finished downloading - this can confuse TBird (and probably other clients), and you have to force TBird to redownload it again (by deleting the local cache - or by forwarding it to yourself as an attachment)... But this is a USER issue - tell your users not to try to open the attachment before TBird is finished downloading it (the status bar is finished). -- Best regards, Charles

The directory structures for the virtual mailboxes are:

/var/spool/virtual_mailbox/domain2.com/user1
And the entire tree from virtual_mailbox down is owned by
vuser:vuser. The directories have permissions 700.
What I believe is happening is that Dovecot is trying to use the uid
and gid of user1, who doesn't have a system account, rather than
vuser's when writing to the virtual_mailbox folders. I'm not sure how
I can configure Dovecot to use the vuser information.
if vuser has uid and gid of 5000
