[Dovecot] Public (Shared Folders) ACL Questions
I'm trying to set up a public namespace so that a set of IMAP folders are available to all staff - similar to MS Exchange Public Folders. I've managed to set up the namespace correctly but I'm having trouble with the ACLs. The global ACL file is the only method I can get to work. All I want to do is to allow 1 user admin privileges to create & delete anything but all other users should only be able to create not delete. Reading through the mailing list I thought a /etc/dovecot-acls/.DEFAULT file would be suitable but what should be put in here to achieve what I want? Are you able to use wildcards somehow within this file, i.e.: owner lrwstiekxa [EMAIL PROTECTED] lrwstiekxa [EMAIL PROTECTED] lrw Does this .DEFAULT file only apply to the public (shared) namespace or will it effect private mailboxes also? If I was to create a specific global acl file for a specific folder which would take precedence, the .DEFAULT acls or the specific folder acls? Also an "INBOX" is shown within the public folders namespace but no folder exists in the public folders maildir hierarchy - any ideas how I can stop this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Gavin
[Dovecot] Sieve problem with 1.1.2
Hello,
I am new here, so excuse me if i am asking something already asked. I am
using dovecot 1.1.2 along with postfix 2.6 and a pgsql backend. So far
everything is great, until i wanted to try out the sieve implementation.
I am using dovecot for deliver and i have set
global_script_path = /home/vmail/globalsieverc
The script IS working until a given user defines his own sieve script (
for example ) :
require ["fileinto"];
# Move mail from my gmail account to gmail folder
if header :contains "From" ["[EMAIL PROTECTED]"] {
fileinto "gmail";
}
This ( or any other script for all i know ) breaks up the global one,
and it stops working. The global script looks like this :
require ["fileinto"];
# Move spam to spam folder
if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" ["YES"] {
fileinto "spam";
stop;
}
Am i missing something, or this is the desired behaviour ?

Using Alpine, if a user deletes their postponed-messages IMAP folder, and then attempts to postpone a message, the IMAP process will crash shortly after the postponed-messages folder is recreated.)

It is the documented behavior. (If this is desirable or not, that is
another question.) From http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sieve :

Any suggestions on how to disable this ? I'd like to be able to filter
all spam by default with sieve, and still allow users to have their own
rules.

[Dovecot] Integrating Dovecot SASL into Postfix
Hello. I have a linux system (Ubuntu 7.04 server edition) running as a mail server with Postfix. SMTP authentication is not configured so users have to be connected to the lan to download/send mails. I´m considering on enabling SMTP authentication and i have heard that by installing Dovecot i can do this pretty straight forward. First of all, some details about how the mail server is configured: - Running Linux OS Ubuntu 7.04 - Currently running Postfix version 2.3.8 - No virtual users or domains . Every system user has a mail account (to create a new mail account i have to create a new system user. I belive this is called PAM, right?). According to postfix´s website the version of postfix i have supports Dovecot 1.0 SASL protocol. What would happen if i try to install Dovecot through apt-get?. I mean, i most definitely get a version of Dovecot above 1.0. Would my postfix still support it?. Before posting this i have posted on the postifx mailing list and they have to told me that after installing Dovecot i don´t need to configure it as a pop/iamp server. How would i accomplish this?. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Diego.

Just so you know, I used to do this on my server running Mac OS X with Postfix 2.3 and Dovecot 1.0.7. Last weekend, I upgraded my server to a new machine running FreeBSD, Postfix 2.5, and Dovecot 1.0.x and then 1.1. My config files moved over with no hitches. The Dovecot upgrade required me to change one parameter name in the config file, but once I found that on the wiki, it was all flawless. I would be more informative if I'd ever done it on Linux.

[Dovecot] antispam plugin problem with dspam
I'm trying to use the dovecot antispam plugin with dspam. I'm running dovecot 1.1.2. Using thunderbird and IMAP, when I drag a spam message from the inbox into the SPAM folder, I get a popup saying "The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: antispam signature not found. When I look at the message in the maildir folder, I see the dspam signature both in the header of the message and at the end of the body. What's a good way to debug this situation and figure things out? I'm not seeing anything in any log files, and I'm not seeing much in the way of debug capability in the dovecot antispam plugin.

Would it be better if the antispam plugin logged whatever stderr output came from the dspam invocation? H
[Dovecot] filename format question
Hello, Is it possible to configure the filename format in dovecot? For example, to change from "unique,W=size:2,FLAGS" to "unique,size.hostname:2,FLAGS_unique2"? Thanks in advance.
Re: [Dovecot] filename format question
On Thursday, September 4 at 06:51 PM, quoth Giorgenes Gelatti: Is it possible to configure the filename format in dovecot? For example, to change from "unique,W=size:2,FLAGS" to "unique,size.hostname:2,FLAGS_unique2"? There's no config option for it, but it's theoretically possible to do just about anything. Generally, though, the format of those filenames is defined by the Maildir standard. Changing the filename as you suggest would likely break other mail programs that might access those Maildir folders. I suppose the question is: why would you want to change that? ~Kyle -- It is better to dwell in the wilderness than with a contentious and an angry woman. -- Proverbs 21:19 pgp9LUZYYAhRX.pgp Description: PGP signature

[Dovecot] Time Moved Backwards Error Keeps Happening
Hi all, I am running dovecot version 1.1.1 (dovecot --version) and keeps to have time moved backwards problem. I first found dovecot dead without obvious error message, but see the following when restart dovecot service by # service dovecot restart >Stopping Dovecot Imap: [FAILED] >Starting Dovecot Imap: Warning: Last died with error (see error log for more information): Time just moved backwards by 4398 seconds. This might cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now. http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards [ OK ] I followed the above official wiki link and apply the ntpd service for adjusting the server timestamp. After running the ntpd service, I found the server timestamp drift is only 14.333 microsecond, I think which would be reasonable. But I still get the captioned error. Does anyone have the same experience? BTW, I couldn't find the error log message even I confirmed the info, error and debug log file by visiting this wiki document http://wiki.dovecot.org/Logging, does it really not log at the log file? I can just keep monitoring the log and use the following command to determine whether dovecot is running or not. # service dovecot status Thank you very much! Yours Sincerely, Jacky, Hoi Kei Chan,

That is reasonable, but dovecot (when it dies), does not think it's true. Just check more carefully to make sure there aren't any other scripts or programs changing the time more drastically. -- Sahil Tandon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
