Charles, I am new to this v2.* I was used to a different layout for v1.* and that is why I am here.
Basically, I am starting from scratch. I have untarred v2.0.2, ran *./configure --with-sql=yes --with-mysql* , * make* , *make install*. Before after that, I could find my files in /usr/local/etc/ which is not the case now. The files are in /usr/local/etc/dovecot/ and /usr/local/share/doc/dovecot/ I have copied the *example-config*s to /usr/local/etc/dovecot/ but literally every change I make as of v1.* is not valid. I wish to use protocals IMAP & POP3 then authenticate with shadow and passwd for system users and mysql for the virtual users. There is not much I can do or lie to you. # Edmonds On Tue, Sep 21, 2010 at 3:32 PM, Charles Marcus <cmar...@media-brokers.com>wrote: > On 2010-09-21 5:50 AM, Edmonds Namasenda <namase...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I have unzipped Dovecot v2.0.2 > > Well, you should at least start out with the latest version (2.0.3)... > > > The last I tried dovecot was with v1.0.13 and I would like help to > achieve > > the set-up as described below. > > All you provided was an extremely general description of what you want > to do. > > This is a great list to get help with specific issues/questions/problems > with dovecot, but your general description was way too vague for any > kind of sensible answers... > > Using postfixadmin+mysql to manage user accounts is definitely a good > thing though, getting both postfix and dovecot to use your mysql backend > should be fairly easy... the postfix list is the place to ask for help > with postfix, and this is the place to ask *specific* questions about > dovecot related issues. > > -- > > Best regards, > > Charles > -- Thank you and kind regards, I.P.N Edmonds ICT Practitioner & Consultant Cel: +256 (71/70) 227 3374 (Uganda) +257 79 11 2998 (Burundi) P.O.
