Re: [Dovecot] UIDL question

Using perfect-maildir.pl from: http://perfectmaildir.home-dn.net/ i can relatively succesfully convert the mbox to a Maildir. The problem, however is that clients with "leave mail on server" set to on retrieve all email a 2nd time. I understand this must be because the email client "sees" a different UIDL and downloads the message again. Looking at the 1.0 configuration, i do not see a "pop3_uidl_format" setting. So was wondering how the UIDL is generated. Is anybody aware of a conversion script that properly maintains the UIDL? Or am I misisng something else here? Hi, Please look at http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/MailFormat There's a modified version of mb2md.pl there that will keep the existing UIDL info. As for "pop3_uidl_format", I seem to recall the source needing modification to change the format in earlier versions of Dovecot, until it was added as a configuration option. OT: I'm curious as to why you're migrating from Postfix to Qmail. Regards, Jase.

It is the CFO and CEO so if they say put it, i have to put whatever they want to put in it... Thanks So tell them it's not possible with Postfix (we don't even do it with Exim) and justify it. Then ask them (subject to your willingless to go that way and their willingness to pay for the hardware and software) to take you for M$ Exchange training, buy Exchange, buy third party software to add disclaimers and you are ready to go! They are "god" anyway, so you just want to do as they say/want:-) I don't know whether that was intended as sarcasm or not, but it certainly _is_ possible to do it with Postfix, albeit with the help of external scripts/utilities. One of the most common ways of doing it is to employ the use of AlterMIME. Googling for "postfix disclaimer" will bring up various HOWTOs detailing how to implement this with AlterMIME , along with other solutions. Regards, Jase.
[Dovecot] Problem with 'doveadm mailbox status -t' reporting cumulative vsizes after upgrading from v2.0.16 to v2.1.7
Hi, I upgraded from Dovecot v2.0.16 to v2.1.7 over night and I noticed this morning that one of my daily reports which lists summarised mailbox sizes per user has started listing nonsense for vsizes. The reporting script at its core calls : doveadm -f flow mailbox status -A -t 'messages vsize' '*' It appears that Dovecot 2.1.7 is not resetting the vsize after collating the sum total of mailboxes sizes for each user, so that vsize just constantly increases as it iterates over each user. Eg: # doveadm -f flow mailbox status -A -t 'messages vsize' '*' accou...@example.com messages=1 vsize=759 a...@example.com messages=0 vsize=759 a...@example.com messages=24 vsize=51699697 a...@example.com messages=5446 vsize=3220940815 a...@example.com messages=50 vsize=3224035563 care...@example.com messages=1 vsize=3224036311 cr...@example.com messages=2471 vsize=4421343199 creat...@example.com messages=189 vsize=4426884182 da...@example.com messages=8 vsize=4440729729 dav...@example.com messages=0 vsize=4440729729 enquir...@example.com messages=1 vsize=4440730491 ge...@example.com messages=4109 vsize=6349098844 g...@example.com messages=86 vsize=6392599904 ho...@example.com messages=2000 vsize=7200342663 i...@example.com messages=0 vsize=7200342663 i...@example.com messages=4 vsize=7200558689 jac...@example.com messages=2 vsize=7200721146 j...@example.com messages=137 vsize=7210548548 j...@example.com messages=16667 vsize=15260532446 ka...@example.com messages=1 vsize=15260533375 m...@example.com messages=0 vsize=15260533375 mik...@example.com messages=9 vsize=15261474205 mik...@example.com messages=296 vsize=15314352543 m...@example.com messages=6357 vsize=20631446344 n...@example.com messages=1184 vsize=21038046728 soc...@example.com messages=65 vsize=21038935461 w...@example.com messages=85 vsize=21057572390 [SNIP] The same occurs with -u '*@example.com' in place of -A, and also for 'all' in place of 'messages vsize'. Is this expected behaviour in 2.1.x compared to 2.0.x, or have I stumbled upon a bug? Regards, Jase Thew.

Re: [Dovecot] TLS / SSL mixed w/ plaintext auth and virtual hosting

In our case if a connection attempts to initiate TLS on any IP address except 10.0.0.2, it would respond with no TLS support. This would be ideal as we could continue running just a single dovecot instance. You could use your local flavour of firewall (iptables, ipfw, pf, whatever) with a rule to pass inbound TCP to 10.0.0.2:993 and then a following rule to drop all other inbound TCP to port 993 ?
