[Dovecot] Errors with NFS root filesystem?
by Nate Carlson 11 Sep '04

11 Sep '04

Hey all, I've been testing out Dovecot, and it works nicely. However, when I tried to roll it to my production server, I'm getting the following error: Sep 10 17:14:22 tungsten imap-login: opendir(".") failed when trying to get list of authentication servers: Stale NFS file handle Any ideas on what I can do for this? I am running on a NFS root filesystem on the production server, so that's likely where this error is coming from. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | nate carlson | natecars(a)natecarlson.com | http://www.natecarlson.com | | depriving some poor village of its idiot since 1981 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------

The result is this: Request: A00099 LIST "" INBOX Response: * LIST (\NoInferiors) "/" INBOX Request: A00100 LIST "" {7+} Response: * LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "INBOX/" Which makes Evolution think INBOX is unreadable. :) Thanks for looking at this. -s

[Dovecot] pop/imap & smtp auth installation with just one userdb
by Christoph Steigmeier 10 Sep '04

10 Sep '04

Hi First of all thanks to the authors of dovecot. It's a pleasure to work with it. I would like to ask, if somebody has an idea about how I can combine all mailusers (dovecot pop/imap & sendmail smtp) into one db, given that I'd like to use sasl with CRAM-MD5 as authentication mechanism to ensure security. The idea behind my question is, that it is easier to administer all mail users, which in my case are mostly non-interactive users, into one db, instead of creating native unix accounts for them. Any input appreciated. Thanks and Kind regards Chris

[Dovecot] Re: 0.99 mail env - mbox to maildir

Greetings ... > I'm all sorted now, anyway... but it has inspired me to build > a mailbox conversion tool using the dovecot mail handling > code.... watch this space. mbox to maildir converter ... There are a few perl scripts which could do this ... But I like the idea of mbox to maildir in dovecot ... But I wonder if that is the right place to put it ... Mailed Lee P.S. If anybody has scripts or a system that moves mail from mbox to maildir, I would be happy to use them ... I run FC2, with procmailrc setting maildir, but it seems when the system is busy or something, my mail is still put into mbox ...

[Dovecot] blank line at the top of mbox
by Brad.Allen＠edwardjones.com 09 Sep '04

I am having this same problem. We are running on a Solaris 8 server and Dovecot puts a blank line at the top of the mailbox and can no longer process until the line is deleted. Any idea how to fix this? Brad Allen IS EMS Projects and Planning

[Dovecot] Internal login failure
by Brian Hechinger 09 Sep '04

ok, so, dovecot 0.99.11, Solaris 9. i have: auth_userdb = passwd auth_passdb = shadow in my dovecot.conf, which gets me logged into dovecot in the first place, but then i get: Sep 9 09:52:41 ford.4amlunch.net imap-login: [ID 457029 mail.info] Internal login failure: wonko [10.0.1.6] in /var/log/syslog how do i track down exactly what the problem is so i can fix it? i would love to add SSL to my imap service, and don't care to mess with cyrus seeing how dovecot seems to be so nice. thanks!! -brian -- "The cats tend to administer themselves, and contrary to the expected facts, the house and everything in it was installed for their benefit." -- Nic Clews

Re: [Dovecot] 100% CPU utilisation

Probably because one of the lines in it is larger then 4096 bytes? Header parser doesn't really like that. I should get that fixed in 1.0-tests..

[Dovecot] Problem with mysql...
by Jacek Osiecki 08 Sep '04

08 Sep '04

Hello, I am trying to run dovecot on my Linux. I am using an exim 3.30 as the MTA with vmail-sql virtual users. I have installed latest dovecot release and ran through the config file. Some options seemed unclear to me, but generally I think it is OK. The problem is, that MySQL authentication does not work. It even does not try to authenticate! Dovecot connects correctly with MySQL database, but then no activity is shown in MySQL logs - but when I try to login manually with the telnet, i get: [root@mainframe root]# telnet localhost 143 Trying 127.0.0.1.143... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. * OK dovecot ready. 1 login [my_email] [my_password] 1 NO Authentication failed. Maybe I am doing something wrong? I have spent two days with this problem, even modifying source files could not help me localize the source of my troubles :( Here are the important (I think) entries from /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: ------- # Authentication process name. auth = default # Space separated list of wanted authentication mechanisms: # plain digest-md5 anonymous auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = mysql /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf auth_passdb = mysql /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf ------- Any suggestions?

[Dovecot] Mail cut on CR character
by Tom Mraz 08 Sep '04

08 Sep '04

Hi all, when I move the attached mail from local folder in Mozilla to an IMAP folder on dovecot, it is cut just before the ... characters. There is an extra CR character. I have setup the dovecot to use Maildirs. When I copy the file with the message manualy to one of the Maildir folders it is shown correctly in Mozilla however it if I move it using Mozilla to another IMAP folder the mail is cut again. Thanks for any reply, Tomas Mraz P.S.
