Re: Permission denied UNIX perms appear ok (ACL/MAC wrong?))

[Remo Mattei]

It’s a mount partition you should check that probably it is nfs. 

Good luck.

Re: Tools to get a report of which folders have new mail?

[Remo Mattei]

Are you using maildrop or flat files In your config? If you are using maildrop 
where there is a file for each file then you could use free into the folder new 
but I do not know what config you have check tre command and see if that does 
some of what you want.

Re: SQL-AUTH driver replace for VPOPMAIL-AUTH

Hi Pablo, 
Roberto has it without PLAIN text, you could check that out

I recall I used Roberto in the past, and the pass is encrypted.

I do agree with that. It depends on what he wants to do and how to handle the

Re: sieve question

[Remo Mattei]

Well, I do not use postfix, but qmail. I would however, create an autorepond 
telling them the new address and then fwd the old address to the new one. 

But nothing to do with sieve, it’s at the SMTP level.

Re: Headsup on feature removal

[Remo Mattei]

So I am on of the many users with qmail, and using vpopmail auth, I guess 
chatting with some other guys in the other mailing list we will convert to 
mysql driver but this is a lot of work for many people. 

I do understand dropping things out but a valid solutions needs to be proposed.

 Hi!
 
 Dovecot is now a nearly 20 year old product, and during that time it has 
 accumulated many different features and plugins in its core repository.
 
 We are starting to gradually remove some of these parts, which are unused, 
 untested or deprecated.
 We will provide advance notification before removing anything.
 
 To start, the following features are likely to be removed in next few 
 releases of Dovecot.
 
 - Authentication drivers: vpopmail, checkpassword, bsdauth, shadow, sia
 - Password schemes: HMAC-MD5, RPA, SKEY, PLAIN-MD4, LANMAN, NTLM, SMD5
 - Authentication mechanisms: ntlm, rpa, skey
 - Dict drivers: memcached, memcached-ascii (use redis instead)
 - postfix postmap support
 - autocreate & autosubscribe plugins (use built-in auto=create/subscribe 
 setting instead)
 - expire plugin (use built-in autoexpunge setting)
 - fts-squat plugin
 - mailbox alias plugin
 - mail-filter plugin
 - snarf plugin
 - xz compression algorithm
 
 For the authentication drivers that are being removed, we suggest using 
 Lua as a replacement. See
 https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/authentication/lua_based_authentication/
  
 
 For information about converting between password schemes, see
 https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/ConvertPasswordSchemes
 
 If you are using any of these features, please start preparing for their 
 removal in the near
 future. Features will begin to be dropped as of v2.3.11.
 
 Additionally, the mbox format will no longer receive new development. It 
 will still be
 maintained, however its use beyond migrations and other limited use cases 
 will be discouraged.
 
 Please contact us via the mailing list if you have any questions.
 
 Regards,
 Dovecot Team

Hello some help on login users saying it's disabled

[Remo Mattei via dovecot]

Hello I am experiencing some strange issue with the dovecot, the web round cube 
works fine but when I try to connect with an iPhone over IMAP IMAPs it tells me 
that the account is disabled. 

Please advice here is what I see in the logs:

And the account does not show any mail whereas the Web shows the mail just 
fine. 

Thanks

This is what fixed mine 

 service stats {
# unix_listener stats-reader {
# group =
# mode = 0666
# user =
#   }
   unix_listener stats-writer {
 group = dovecot
 mode = 0666
 user =
   }
  }

Issues with stats-writer

[Remo Mattei]

Here is the full mail coming in:


@40005c57633625970624 starting delivery 12824: msg 1270896 to local 
ma.org-...@mattei.org 
@40005c57633625970a0c status: local 1/10 remote 0/60
@40005c57633711a138c4 delivery 12824: success: lda(y...@ma.org 
,)Error:_net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/stats-writer)_failed:_Permission_denied/did_0+0+1/
@40005c57633711a1447c status: local 0/10 remote 0/60

I am using qmail for some reasons I have the error above. I have tried the 
following: 

#service stats {
#unix_listener stats-reader {
#user = root
#group = dovecot
#mode = 0660
#}
#
#unix_listener stats-writer {
#user = root
#group = dovecot
#mode = 0660
#}
#}

But still no luck still have the same issue. 

Any tips are welcomed.

Remo
