He's been using K9 mail which seems to have a problem where it doesn't release a connection and has 1 connection per subscribed folder The reasoning behind the multiple socket communication design in the IMAP protocol is flawed, thus we end up with problems like yours, and others. It may have looked good on the white board but it doesn't seem to add benefit in production--only add problems. At least from an SA's perspective. Just about every other modern internet protocol gets by with a single socket, and many of those applications are more complex than IMAP. Multiple virtual channels are a good idea at the data link layer of WAN communications links, and work well there. They're a lousy idea at the application layer, however, as the IMAP protocol clearly demonstrates. Everything IMAP does over multiple sockets could have been accomplished over a single socket, with no noticeable decrease in performance, but with fewer SA headaches and fewer server resources consumed. I eagerly await a successor to the current version of IMAP, which will hopefully do away with this problematic, unnecessary, multiple socket nonsense. It may be a long wait, unfortunately... -- Stan
[Dovecot] Trouble getting lda to gzip incomming mails (zlib plugin)
Hi!
I've followed the guide at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Zlib to try to make
Dovecot gzip incomming mails, but it doesn't seem to work.
I've made pop/imap read gzipped files, and this seems to work perfectly, but
LDA is still saving incomming mails in plain text.
There's not too much information out there regarding the zlib module, so I'm
not sure where to start debugging the problem, and was hoping someone could
point me in the right direction.
The only mention of zlib when LDA is delivering a file:

[Dovecot] how to disable quota for second namespace?
Hi all,
I have a second namespace as archive, where no quota should be active
(work with type = shared).
But if I change the type to private the quota will allways count.
My dovecot version is the 2.0.13.
I have tried things like this:
plugin {
quota_rule = *:storage=500M
quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M
quota_rule3 = Sent:storage=+50M
quota_rule4 = ns=archiv/%u/:ignore
}
It's also doesn't work with quota_rule4 = archiv/%u/:ignore
The namespace:
namespace {
type = private
separator = /
prefix = archiv/%u/
location =
maildir:/var/data/archiv/%d/%n:INDEX=/var/data/indexes/archiv/%u:LAYOUT=fs
inbox = no
hidden = no
subscriptions = no
list = yes
}
Even if I define the namespace for quota I see the quota-value also in
the root:
plugin {
quota = maildir:User quota
quota2 = maildir:Archiv quota:ns=archiv/%u/
}
doveadm quota get -u t...@example.com
Quota name
Type Value Limit %
User quota
STORAGE 1587135 512000 309
User quota
MESSAGE 13346 - 0
Archiv quota
STORAGE 1359379 - 0
Archiv quota
MESSAGE 10577 - 0
du -ks /var/data/mail/example.com/test
234364 /var/data/mail/example.com/test
du -ks /var/data/archiv/example.com/test
1383792 /var/data/archiv/example.com/test
Now is the big question, how can I reach such an output?
doveadm quota get -u t...@example.com
Quota name
Type Value Limit %
User quota
STORAGE 227756 512000 44
User quota
MESSAGE2769 - 0
Archiv quota
STORAGE 1359379 - 0
Archiv quota
MESSAGE 10577 - 0
I can't believe that's only possible with a shared namespace, or?
Any hints are welcome.
Best regards
Udo

Re: [Dovecot] Trouble getting lda to gzip incomming mails (zlib plugin)
Well, I can't see why it would hurt either.
The reason we're using that directory is that the sieve plugin is compiled into
lda/ by default, I think. I will try to move the sieve files into dovecot/ and
remove mail_plugin_dir tomorrow, but I don't think it will help since dovecot
has no problems *loading* the library.

[Dovecot] About using Dovecot indexes with Thunderbird/kmail
I have Dovecot running well on my Mandriva mail hub, handing out IMAP to the household LAN. This is 1.2.15. Eventually I'll upgrade the OS and get 2.x, but this is working fine. So this question is really about the mail readers I use and how they make use of Dovecot. I have Thunderbird on my laptop and KMail2 on my desktop. Dovecot indexes. GOOD! The trouble is that the mail readers want their own indexes :-( I wish that Thunderbird would NOT index mail on my laptop, but it does. I wish Kmail2 would not use nepomuk/akonadi to index the mail but it does. Why can't they both believe the indexes used by Dovecot? Is this an unreasonable request? -- We stand behind all of our products, except for the manure spreader. -- Corporate motto of an equipment manufacturer

[Dovecot] Sieve: Vacation, handle and variable
Hi *,
I am adding a generic way for vacation-replies in my sieve setup. There
I set the handle and the reason using variables (see end of mail). My
simple question now is: Though variable expansion is not done for
subject and reason, is it done for the handle? Because else there seems
no way in configuring the vacation action via variables.
I tried to read the code for this extension, but ... well ... the whole
sieve implementation is way more complicated then I figured ^^. Thus I
take the question to the list.
Thanks,
René

Ok. I just learned about sieve-test. And this shows me:
* send vacation message:
= seconds : 604800
= subject: FooSubj
= from : ...

So the handle does not expand variables. Hence: Would it be possible to
add for example a non-standard :expand list option to vacation, where
'list' contains the names of the options where it is safe to do
variable-expansion?

No need. This is a violation of the standard and it was actually a long
