[Dovecot] Lucene index not updated when one saves a message from one folder to the other
I'm running 1.1 rc8, and I enabled the Lucene indexes. I find that if a bunch of messages arrive in INBOX and I then move them to archive, the next time I do an X-TEXT-FAST search, Dovecot has to re-index the mails that I think it had indexed when they were in INBOX. This seems silly, since Dovecot was the one copying them (and then deleting, since that's what I mean by move). Will this change? -- Asheesh. -- Elliptic paraboloids for sale.

[Dovecot] Multiple SSL certificates with dovecot.
Hello all, By advance, I hope you'll excuse my probably not perfect English, which is not my mother tongue. I have always appreciated dovecot for this simplicity to setup and lightweight, but today, after many installations, I cannot find how to setup dovecot for my configuration. - I use only IMAPS to retrieve the mails. - I manage two domain names - I use CA-Cert certificates So,the question is : how to setup dovecot to select the appropriate certificate, according to the domain name I use when I retrieve mails using the IMAPS protocol ? Thanks. Andre Rodier.

Well, it is NOT possible, unless you use two different ways to connect to the IMAP server - which basically means you need two IP addresses or two port numbers. Unfortunately, IMAP (and most other protocols out there) do not have the capability of Virtual Hosting as HTTP (with the Host attribute). That means: variant 1) IMAP over SSL the client resolves the symbolic IMAP server name via DNS, then connects to a port on the numerical IP, then SSL handshake takes place: There is no way for the server, with cert to use, because there is no domain name transferred to it. Then the user authentificates. variant 2) IMAP with STARTTLS the client resolves the symbolic IMAP server name via DNS, then connects to a port on the numerical IP, Dovecot returns the greeting, the client issues STARTTLS, then SSL handshake takes place: There is no way for the server, with cert to use, because there is no domain name transferred to it. Then the user authentificates. At least in variant 2) the IMAP standard could implement a way to pass the original host, but it isn't. So the server must pick a certificate for its own. Therefore, you cannot host virtual IMAPS servers, but need physically separated ones.

Re: [Dovecot] Multiple SSL certificates with dovecot.
Hello all, Thanks a lot for your answers, I was not sure it was possible, anyway, Thanks Steffen, to have take the time to detail to me the IMAP protocol, and Daniel for your advices about CSR and vhost task force, I'll try them later. André Rodier.

You should enable outlook-idle workaround with IMAP.
You should enable outlook-no-nuls workaround with POP3.
Outlook 2003 has problems with older Dovecot's default POP3 UIDL
format, which causes it to download the same mails over and over again
if leave mails to server option is enabled. See pop3_uidl_format
setting.
Outlook Express 6
Using Headers only synchronization is buggy and can cause Message
is no longer available on this server error when opening a mail. This
isn't Dovecot specific problem, and I'm not aware of any possible
workarounds at the moment for this in server side.
You should enable outlook-idle and delay-newmail workarounds for IMAP.
You should enable outlook-no-nuls and oe-ns-eoh workarounds for POP3.

Self-signed certs have always been a problem in OL (and I guess OE, but I don't use it or support it much)... There is no way to permanently save one via the pop-up... Meaning, the client will get the warning and have to accept it every tim they connect for the first time. Nothing dovecot can do about that... That said - it will work...

Re: [Dovecot] Auto creating client folders on the IMAP server after installing client.
So, what did you end up changing to make it work where it didn't before? :) Nothing! I'm telling you! I was tired and disgusted, so i quit for the day (I was the last guy out) and first thing in the morning (first guy in, only because I was a bit worried about what would happen when I told him TBird was kaput) after checking mail (web mail), xkcd, and general goofing off, I start TBird, and Hey! Presto! it works. Maybe my manager did something, but I checked last and there were no signs of tampering (Umm.. shouldn't have said that I'd hurl umm.. configs in his err.. proverbial face. He isn't such a bad fellow in general, but he likes doling out work with a free and liberal hand and that gets in the way of what I want to learn.) Oh well.. I'll keep you guys posted if I do find a solution to it (assuming it rears its ugly rear). To: Rob, You are a Coward, sir and that's all I need say! *turns tail, and flees Dovecot*
