[Dovecot] Warning: SSL is disabled because global ssl=no, ignoring ssl=yes for subsection
Hi all,
This is my first message to the list.
I've been experimenting with running dovecot on my unRAID server
(basically, a parity-protected array of disks, running on a slackware
13.1 platform).
Someone on the unRAID forum had built a binary distribution of dovecot
1.1.20 and I got this up and running without too much trouble.
Today, I've been building the latest dovecot release (2.0.12) and
getting this up and running. My biggest problem has been reconstructing
the configuration file but, after a few diversions, I'm now back up and
running, with access to my mail once more.
However, I'm just a little bit miffed that I can't get rid of this warning.
My configuration:
root@Tower:~# doveconf -n
# 2.0.12: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
doveconf: Warning: SSL is disabled because global ssl=no, ignoring
ssl=yes for subsection
# OS: Linux 2.6.36.2-unRAID i686 Slackware 13.1.0 fuse.shfs
disable_plaintext_auth = no
listen = *
mail_location = maildir:/mnt/user/Maildir/%u
passdb {
args = /etc/passwd.dovecot
driver = passwd-file
}
protocols = imap
service auth {
user = root
}
service imap-login {
inet_listener imap {
port = 143
}
}
ssl = no
userdb {
args = /etc/passwd.dovecot
driver = passwd-file
}
root@Tower:~#
Can someone point me to where the (implicit?) ssl=yes is coming from?
In the meantime I will have a play at mail fetching, comparing dumping
the mails straight into maildir, with using the dovecote lda.
Thanks for any advice.

Try flushing your cache. For obvious reasons Postfix returns a 450 in this case, so the list server will attempt delivery for a few days. If you don't run your own resolver on your Postfix MX I suggest you do so. I use PowerDNS recursor on my MX MTAs. Works great. Setup takes less than 5 minutes. Caching is in memory only, not disk, so a restart clears everything. -- Stan
Re: [Dovecot] IMAP vs. POP3
On 04/28/2011 10:31 AM, Matt wrote: Does IMAP create much additional system load vs. POP3? How much is much? They do have different usage patterns. The server load also depends on how each client program is configured. Some client configurations create more of a load than others (eg how messages are cached on the client). My impression is that the client configuration can affect system load more so than the difference between IMAP and POP3. Generally speaking, IMAP is preferable to POP3 due to the accessibility it provides from multiple clients/devices. POP3 is the past, IMAP is the future. -- -Eric 'shubes'
[Dovecot] Restricting IMAP
I want to restrict IMAP use too 127.0.0.1 and to only certain usernames. Such as f...@my777domain.com would be allowed to use IMAP. How would I do that with Dovecot or can I? Basically I want webmail to work with IMAP regardless of username but I only want certain usernames allowed to use IMAP remotely.

It seems that ns.ripe.net., one of the NS hosts for 89.194.in-addr.arpa., is not returning the PTR for 45.34.89.194.in-addr.arpa. AFAICS the other NS hosts seem to be working fine, but if your resolver was unlucky enough to hit ns.ripe.net., you have a host with no PTR. It's like Russian roulette with rDNS. I suspect it might be a casualty of DNSSEC, but I get the same noerror response when querying with +dnssec and +nodnssec. At this point those who use the normally safe and reasonable reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname restriction should consider whitelisting mkentta.iki.fi[194.89.34.45] in the MTA. And Timo needs to scream louder at the ISP. ;) -- Offlist mail to this address is discarded unless /dev/rob0 or not-spam is in Subject: header
