[Dovecot] Cassandra support
Hi, I've read some previous threads about Cassandra support. In a message at April 2012 it was written that it would take a few hours after doing some internal stuff. http://dovecot.markmail.org/search/?q=cassandra#query:cassandra%20order%3Adate-backward+page:1+mid:emfxwl4fdrnrhkn7+state:results I wonder if there have been a progress since then? Or a better alternative came up? -- Goktug
[Dovecot] Restoring Mails via DSync
Greetings, Can anyone give me a quick pointer to the right command to use for restoring backups made by dsync? I have our whole mail server backed up with it, but not sure how to restore... Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- --Asai
Re: [Dovecot] Postfix/Dovecot/lmtp with virtual and local users
I'm interested in this as well, and having looked over the wiki2 pages on LDA and LMTP, and the files conf.d/15-lda.conf and conf.d/20-lmtp.conf to which they refer, I still don't see how the lmtpd knows a given user@domain is a system user. For virtual domains, I guess the assumption is that the Dovecot username is user@domain. (Even that assumption is not necessarily valid; there is no requirement to format virtual usernames that way.) The closest I can find is "hostname" in 15-lda.conf, but that does not really say anything about it being used to identify a system user. -- http://rob0.nodns4.us/ -- system administration and consulting Offlist GMX mail is seen only if "/dev/rob0" is in the Subject:

Dovecot needs to know if the user exists and where the mails should be
saved. You can use a dedicated user lookup query like
SELECT home, uid, gid FROM users WHERE userid = '%u'
or you can use a static userdb. See:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/Static
But it's also possible to combine passdb and userdb into a single
lookup. This is explained here: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/Prefetch
Because you're using virtual users you'll find other useful
informations here: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers
I guess you could start with a static userdb like
userdb {
driver = static
args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/mail/%d/%n
}
In this example, mails are saved in /var/mail/domain/username.

I would have thought you want to use exactly the dsync command you used to take the backup, but with -R (or without it, if you were using it before). Ben

[Dovecot] Custom Headers/Flags Support in dovecot
I am currently trying to evaluate if I can use dovecot to be used for my imap server like application. This is not an email application but a generic storage server that uses IMAP protocol to save and retrieve messages. The messages have standard From/To/Date headers and a lot of custom headers for threading conversations e.t.c. As a part of my application requirements I also need to support custom flags and have ability to set/change/retrieve them via IMAP. 1) Does Dovecot support custom flags to be set/changed/retrieved? 2) I understand dovecot optimizes standard RFC822 headers and flags in cache/index files for faster lookups and searches. Does custom headers and flags fall into this optimization algorithm? 3) I am planning to support multiple users and each mailbox may have upto 1000 folders. Each folder may have an average of 20 MIME encoded messages. I am planning to use local storage with single-dbox format. Do you see any issues with this? thanks Ramesh
