Re: [Dovecot] live and backup auth database
John Lyons wrote: Is there a way of setting dovecot to use two mysql authentication databases, either in a live/failover format or a round robin method. Yes, just provide as many MySQL hosts as you wish in "sql.conf" "connect = host=mysql1 host=mysql2 dbname=mail user=dovecot .." MySQL hosts are queried in round-robin fashion. Tomi

Re: [Dovecot] corrupted index?
Gary Funck wrote: On 02/02/08 12:27:14, Ronald MacDonald wrote: Where does Dovecot put the INDEX? My problem disappeared as soon as I set INDEX=MEMORY. Does this mean that as long as the dovecot server is long-running that it will cache indexes into local memory? Or is the index kept in memory only for the per-client connection? Only for per connection. Store indexes on local disk if you wish to have persistent indexes but avoid problems with NFS. Do something like this mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/var/lib/dovecot/%u Tomi

Thanks a lot Ronald.
Is there any issue I must consider about dovecot indexes?
Dovecot will log an warning but nothing much else, so it is pretty safe.

Hi all.
I'm looking for a way to empty user's trash folder.
Can message deletion or folder purging be scheduled?
Thanks in advance.
-Pietro.
Of course. Run a cron job to search, for example, for files older than
a certain date.
Delete all files in /cur which are older than 30 days:
/usr/bin/find /home/vmail/*/.Junk/cur -mtime +30 -type f -daystart
-exec rm '{}' \;
Hope that helps.
Kind regards,
Ronald.

Re: [Dovecot] v1.1.rc1 released
Timo Sirainen wrote: Finally the first v1.1 release candidate. Please test so we can have a fully stable v1.1.0 release. v1.1.betas are already running in a few large installations, so I don't expect there to be many bugs left. So far it's been smooth ride for me, upgraded from 1.0.10 last night. Quick specs of my setup * Solaris 10 x86 * Compiled with Sun Studio 12 * Maildir storage on ZFS * Dovecot indexes on compressed ZFS * MySQL 5 as user data backend * Postfix with Dovecot SASL and Dovecot Deliver * Plugins in use: quota, imap quota, fts, fts squat * Users ~30 * Clients in use: Thunderbird, RoundCube Webmail, Nokia smartphones Tomi

Re: [Dovecot] 1.0.rc29 released
Jeff A. Earickson wrote: My one concern about dovecot is the "feeping creaturism" in the code. Why does it have to be an LDA? That is what procmail is for. And designing your own mailbox format (dbox?) seems dangerous too. Both features were done for paying customer. Dovecot LDA is lot more than procmail is, for example, how would you implement a proper out of office reply only using procmail? You also have great performance benefits when using Dovecot LDA over procmail, indexing for both Maildir and mbox and header padding for mbox. Tomi

I tried compiling the source file that calculates the ioloop timeout using "-O" instead of "-fast" but that didn't make any difference. If you are using Sun Studio 12 compile all with "-xtarget=native -xO3" and see if it helps for your high CPU usage, for me it did. Tomi
