Re: [Discuss] Delivering mail to folders

Yes, that's why I put the word "wrong" in quotes. That's basically the procedure I use. More precisely, I use the scripts for this that came bundled with OpenVPN 2.x. I keep the keys on a separate, non-networked machine at home, on an encrypted partition that I only mount when working with keys,

Re: [Discuss] Delivering mail to folders

The important characteristic is whether or not the CA root private key is ever exposed to any servers or clients. For example, if you used a self-signed cert (no separate CA) on a server, that server requires the CA root private key in order to serve webpages, and if you installed that cert

Re: [Discuss] Delivering mail to folders

Apparently I've been doing it "wrong" all these years. I've always created my own CA and signed my certificates with it, and I thought that's what the term "self-signed" meant. On Mon, Feb 1, 2016 at 5:50 PM, Edward Ned Harvey (blu) wrote: > > From: Discuss

Dovecot can be a little quirky about the location of INBOX. You can specify it with the mail_location directive in Dovecot's local.conf file. -- Rich P. ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [Discuss] Delivering mail to folders

If I were likely to want to set up other servers, I agree some configuration management/deploy tool would make a lot of sense. I have Puppet training, etc. I'm not sure if it makes sense for one individual not getting paid for it to use it for one server. I *am* using git to record changes

Quick update: Just yesterday I contracted with Verizon for residential class triple play. Giving up static IP, but going from promised 16Mbps/? (actual 2Mbps/12Mbps) to promised 150Mbps/150Mbps and all told about $100+ less per month. I also got a server on Linode and set up Postfix/Dovecot.

Re: [Discuss] Delivering mail to folders

I thought "Inbox" was different, and even if you're using Maildir instead of mbox, incoming mail still got delivered do /var/mail/$USERNAME. So you say the problem is Postfix (or Dovecot, not even sure who is saving the mail in this arrangement) is saving to /var/mail/$USERNAME, not that

I made certain to go over the itemized costs from 0-6 months, 6-12 months, and 12 months and beyond. If the costs above and beyond that are significant you can be sure I will complain. I did get the prices for the set top boxes, etc. Part of the math I did was the cost of power and
