Hi all,
Preparing for a replication setup, I read (at the bottom of
<http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication>) that `dovecot --hostdomain`
should
give a different output on the two servers. This is not the case for
me: both
give "localhost". I'm trying to change my configuration to set the
hostdomain
to another value, but I can't find how to do this.
I tried:
• setting the environment variable DOVECOT_HOSTDOMAIN=mydomain in
/etc/default/dovecot (which is read by the init script);
• adding the line
import_environment = TZ DOVECOT_HOSTDOMAIN=mydomain
to dovecot.conf;
• the combination of both of the above.
However, after restarting dovecot none of these changes seem to have
any
effect: `dovecot --hostdomain` still returns "localhost".
whats the output of 'hostname -f'
whats in your /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts?
there was a thead a few weeks ago on how to have dovecot use a different
hostname than the system hostname see
http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2016-August/105284.html
This is with dovecot version 2.2.13.
How should one change this setting?
Thanks,
Arie
