Re: [Dovecot] Problem with ldap / quotas

[Nikolaos Milas]

Thanks Timo,

In the end, I figured things out.





dovecot unix - n n - - pipe




Config file changes follow:
------------------------------
# /etc/postfix/main.cf

mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver
...
dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1
virtual_transport = dovecot

------------------------------
# /etc/postfix/master.cf

dovecot unix - n n - - pipe

------------------------------
# /etc/dovecot.conf

protocol lda {
postmaster_address = postmas...@noa.gr
sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail
auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
log_path =
info_log_path =
mail_plugins = quota
}
-----------------------------
# /etc/dovecot.conf, in listen {...

master {
path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
mode = 0660
user = vmail
group = vmail
}
-----------------------------

Thanks again,
Nick

Below are the changes to my initial configuration; now everything works fine. Just a note about a detail which took me some time to sort out: In postfix master.cf, in LDA setup documentation, the suggested configuration is: flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient} However, in my case, the working solution uses {user} rather than {recipient}, as - at the end - we just use the username for mailbox delivery and {recipient} is inappropriate in this context. I feel that this scenario is not rare in postfix/dovecot/LDAP implementations. flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${user}

deliver needs to be called by Postfix.
