Or was it that you wanted to do it for maildir, and then figured you should for mbox as well? The implementation seems to work ok. The instructions just seem a bit...thin. :) >> This bit of the wiki caused me some confusion as well: >> "Compressed mbox files can be accessed only as read-only" >> >> Thus I chmod'ed the .gz file to read-only.

When I enabled zlib I created a 2nd mail_plugins line. So 'mail_plugins fts fts_squat' got ignored. Didn't realize all plugins had to be declared in a single line directive. I did this as part of my troubleshooting when zlib wasn't working, thinking putting it on it's own line may help--not. -- Stan

In the example dovecot.conf there's a protocols setting. If you don't
see any, you can just add your own wherever. "protocols=imap" should
work.
And a related question, I've been using imaps on port 993 but I
hear that's not the best solution anymore, I should be using imap
with STARTTLS? How do I disable imaps?
Well, http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SSL explains this more. I don't think
you really need to disable imaps, but if you want to, you can do it
with:
service imap-login { inet_listener imaps { port = 0 } }
Thanks for that. The service imap-login line above is in the file
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf. I don't know if that is standard
for version 2 or something that Ubuntu created.
The Ubuntu installation has this line in the /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf file;
!include_try /usr/share/dovecot/protocols.d/*.protocol
That directory contains one file;
dovecot-imapd.protocol
and it contains one line;
protocols = $protocols imap
So I am assuming that it is adding imap to the protocols in the
environment variable $protocols somehow?
dovecot -n yields;
protocols = " imap"
I did get TBird to retrieve mail from port 993 using SSL however. Will
it work without a protocols = imaps?
Thanks,

[Dovecot] 1.2.15 can't get zlib working
Following these instructions: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Zlib I enabled zlib and restarted Dovecot. I made a backup copy of a 68MB mbox file and moved it to a non mail directory. The mbox file is an existing TBird IMAP folder in my UNIX user mail directory. It is an archive of a defunct mailing list. It was a regular IMAP folder prior to attempting this. I was able to access all emails in the folder. It worked fine. I gzipped the original mbox file down to 14MB and removed the write flag with chmod. I launched TBird and received the following error in Activity Manager when accessing this IMAP folder: The current operation on '1-Spam-l' did not succeed. The mail server for account s...@hardwarefreak.com responded: Mailbox doesn't exist: 1-Spam-l I deleted the Dovecot index files and the TBird 1-Spam-l.msf file which didn't help. Curiously, there are no entries in either dovecot.err or dovecot.log, giving not even the slightest hint as to where I should troubleshoot. Kinda sucks when one follows instructions exactly, simple instructions at that, and it doesn't work, and generates zero log errors. A bit frustrating...

Ah, then Timo's reply was right. He suggested you do the lmtp-deliveries to the same server that you would send you imap-user to. You can do this trough dovecot director and lmtp-proxying. So instead of: lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp you should use: lmtp:tcp:1.2.3.4:24 where 1.2.3.4 would be the Dovecot LMTP proxy that proxies to the same machine as you would use for imap for this particular recipient. -jf

AFAIU it picks that up from the /var/run/dovecot/auth-master socket. No. I want to know if dovecot writes to the indexes if it receives a mail via lmtp. Someone proposed to store the index files on a locally installed SSD on a frontend (imap) machine and stick the users to that machine but if the lmtp-service writes to the indexes (and I think he does), that machine needs access to the indexes too which will bring us back to shared storage.

But > from what I know and tried this is not way mdbox used to work, right? sdbox would work like that. The reason mdbox doesn't work like that is because copying messages would be rather slow then. The idea with mdbox is anyway that you'd use Dovecot's tools to manage the mailboxes rather than access them directly through filesystem. So if you want to copy one IMAP folder, you'd use either dsync or doveadm import to do it.

[Dovecot] No duplicates on imap copy?
Hello, when from my script I try to copy messages from one imap folder into another own (within the same imap mailbox). That works perfectly, but... If I copy the same message N times from one folder into another one, in the destination folder I see N copies of the same message, each with its own UID. I wonder if there any way to deduplicate folder content (so in the destination folder I'll get only one copy of each message)? I'd implement something like that myself in my script but I just don't know which part of the messages should I compare - probably md5 of headers? Thank you in advance! Yours, Alexander Chekalin
