Re: [Dovecot] lda: vacation auto-reply for a virtual address

But yes, if dovecot's LDA would honour something like .forward files, I'd be happy. Actually, the forward files functionality is mail forwarding per user, this is you setup two (independed) maildrops per recipient; it's a feature of the MTA, not of the MDA. One maildrop is the mailbox of the local user, the other one is the auto-responder. Maybe, you could also name it "aliasing", you alias the local recipient to the local recipient himself and the responder (double the mail, like if you would forward the mail to two different remote addresses). In sendmail the main difference between ".forward" and aliases is that aliases are executed with the permission of the MTA, but .forwards with the permissions of the user. I don't know postfix, so I cannot use the correct terms of it. Sendmail uses different mailers (exim calls them transports, if I remember correctly) for the two different maildrops, "scripts" are invoked by the virtual "*prog*" mailer, whereas the spooling into a local mailbox is performed by the "local" mailer, which is bound to e.g. Dovecot deliver. http://www.postfix.org/local.8.html "An alias or ~/.forward file may list any combination of external commands, destination file names, :include: directives, or mail addresses. See aliases(5) for a pre- cise description. Each line in a user's .forward file has the same syntax as the right-hand part of an alias." this paragraphe should cover what I mean (section: SYSTEM-WIDE AND USER-LEVEL ALIASING).

Re: [Dovecot] Patch: building dovecot-sieve against installed dovecot (Re: sieve discard)
Timo, is this ok with you? It allows building dovecot-sieve against an installed dovecot package (if --enable-header-install additionally installs liblib.a) including sievec and sieved (needed for pysieved).

I'm not aware of any major problems and I think I'm pretty much done with new features (except for dbox). The largest changes since alpha1: * Removed THREAD indexing. It's a bit buggy and I think there's a better chance of releasing a bugfree v1.1 soon if it's not included. I'll fix it after v1.1. * Removed THREAD=X-REFERENCES2 also because it wasn't as easy to implement with the old threading code. I might put this back though if there's enough interest. * PAM always works in blocking=yes mode now.

No, that setting doesn't do anything for IMAP. Also none of those settings affect the "unknown user" error, so maybe 0.99 is somehow lucky in not generating those.

If you had run Dovecot as IMAP server, then it wasn't such a great idea
to run the migration, because it recreates dovecot-uidlist files trying
to make them compatible with Courier's POP3 uidlist file.
Creating dovecot-uidlist then caused the UIDVALIDITY to change, which
causes IMAP clients to redownload all messages, and as you can see
Dovecot doesn't handle UIDVALIDITY changes all that nicely. v1.1 does a
better job with it though.

Well, what you just did probably did that. It just caused IMAP users to download the mails again, but that's more transparent to users because it doesn't create duplicates.

[Dovecot] HP-UX troubles
Hi there, I got dovecot compiled and running on HP-UX 11.23. It's using LDAPUX and PAM for authentication. So far, it works. But after logging in the connection is closed immediately. It looks like this: telnet 143 Connected to ... Escape character is '^]'. * OK Dovecot ready. a01 login Connection closed by foreign host. The dovecot log says: Error: imap-login: fd_send(7) failed: Bad file number Error: child 22629 (login) returned error 89 As far as I can see, the problem seems to reside in dovecot's fdpass.c... dovecot version: 1.0.3 gcc version: 2.9 Any ideas or solutions?

Re: [Dovecot] UIDL match from 0.99.13 to 1.0-1.2
Why, yes, it does. Do I need to swap them ore delete X-IMAPbase, and is there a utility to do that, or do I have to make one?

Re: [Dovecot] UIDL match from 0.99.13 to 1.0-1.2
I did that and it was not able to fix things. Additionally in my logs I get the following messages: Dovecot v1.0.rc15 starting up pop3-login: Login: user=, method=PLAIN, rip=:::128.174.124.57, lip=:::128.174.124.57, secured POP3(danield): mbox sync: UID inserted in the middle of mailbox /var/mail/danield (3093908 > 3092736, seq=1, idx_msgs=514) POP3(danield): mbox sync: UID inserted in the middle of mailbox /var/mail/danield (3094935 > 3092736, seq=1, idx_msgs=514) POP3(danield): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/514, size=4689780 Looks to me like it is looking for a higher initial uid than what it gets from the file.

If you're using system users they're the same. If you're using virtual
users $USER contains the virtual user and $RESTRICTED_USER contains the
system user.

I guess this has been asked often enough. v1.1 supports now this:
userdb passwd {
args = home=/var/mail/%u
}

So, on a hunch I ran a diff command between the default 0.99.11-8.EL4 conf file and my old, known working 0.99.11-8.EL4 conf file, restored from a backup, and I noticed that even though I was not using the POP3 protocol at all, I still have the outlook-pop3-no-nuls and the oe6- fetch-no-newmail workarounds enabled, along with the outlook-idle workaround. So, I added those two workarounds to the default config, and it is working again. No 'IMAP Server disconnected' errors all day long. In 0.99.11-8.EL4, could this outlook-pop3-no-nuls be solving this issue, even though I am using IMAP protocol, not POP3? No, that setting doesn't do anything for IMAP. Also none of those settings affect the "unknown user" error, so maybe 0.99 is somehow lucky in not generating those. Perhaps setting blocking=yes to userdb passwd args would help. Perhaps dovecot communicates with PAM in a different way from 0.99 to 1.0.2? I don't know how else to explain it. Literally, the only time I've gotten a report of Outlook's 'IMAP server disconnected' message since the downgrade is when a user who was on a remote VPN connection left Outlook open and let his computer go into hibernation for like an hour. I'd expect dovecot to close that connection in that instance. Since in 1.0.2, the workarounds are on a separate conf line for POP3 and IMAP, is there an equivalent workaround for Outlook with IMAP? The wiki mentions a workaround called 'outlook-no-nuls'. Will that one work with 1.0.2 under the IMAP workarounds line? And am I being realistic that this may be my issue? The outlook-no-nuls only fixes Outlook completely hanging in case it receives a NUL byte with POP3 protocol. There's no such problem with IMAP. Well, today, I will build by test server, and load it up with the latest stable. And see if I can get it to work properly. I'll post my results as soon as I get some.

I'd expect dovecot to close that connection in that instance. So you're using PAM + nss_ldap. I guess that can easily be the problem. http://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/Passwd signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Debugging information would have been really useful, but I did fix one bug and added some more asserts: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.0/rev/bd113e9fe67b If it still wasn't fixed, maybe with this change it gives another assert. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

[Dovecot] Crash with 1.1alpha2 when lazy_expunge is enabled?
I'm seeing a crash in 1.1alpha2 when trying to expunge a folder when
"lazy_expunge" is enabled:
namespace private {
separator = .
prefix = .EXPUNGED/
location = maildir:/mailstore/%u/Expunged
hidden = yes
}
...
lazy_expunge = .EXPUNGED/ .EXPUNGED/ .EXPUNGED/
Commenting out "lazy_expunge" prevents the crash and mail is expunged.
It happens with and without ACL's. Attached is the log output.
The messages never actually get moved to the "Expunged" directory, but
there is a "temp" file created each time:

Lazy expunge works on our production 1.0.0 systems. Anyone else seen this?
