zlib compressed folders

2023-06-14 Thread Michael Grant via dovecot
I’ve been playing with zlib compressed mail archives. I can’t seem to get it to work. I followed the instructions here: https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/zlib_plugin/ I’m not interested in being able to save, just read-only would be great. I have some compressed mail archives, for

imap syncing issues

2023-06-14 Thread Michael Grant via dovecot
I’m having synchronization issues in imap. I am accessing my mail from several different imap clients: K9 on Android, Windows 11 and 10 mail client, and Android Gmail app. Both desktop and laptop, tablet, phone. I know I have more than the usual number of imap connections... Often when I del

dovecot username with domain

2023-09-19 Thread Michael Grant via dovecot
I've been using dovecot using system usernames (my unix uname as my IMAP username). But today I tried New Outlook which requires the imap username match my email address. Is there some way to tell dovecot that username@host is the same as uname? (where username@host is an email address and unam

2 users who are the same user

2023-11-25 Thread Michael Grant via dovecot
I have been using system users (/etc/passwd). I recently started using, in addition, passwd-file with a separate dovecot password database so that I could have user@domainname users with a different password as their shell login password. This means I have dovecot authenticating on users in both

RE: Please do not remove replication

2024-01-25 Thread Michael Grant via dovecot
I keep seeing this come up over and over.  My understanding is it’s not getting removed, it’s just moving to the paid version of Dovecot.  What is the cost for a small user license of dovecot that incudes replication anyway?  Is the price that outrageous?  __
