imapc_port not working
Hi, Dovecot v2.3.7.2 on Ubuntu 18.04LTS
I have configured for imap proxy to imap.gmail.com However whilst the imapc_host setting is working, imapc_port is not - it ignores the value I set and dovecot always tries to connect to gmail on port 143 (as per error log output). I have the imapc settings in the 10-mail.conf which gets loaded by dovecoat.conf Looks like a bug. Any assistance would appreciated. Regards,David.

I have solved the port problem by specifying it in the passdb section as userdb_imapc_port=993 But:This is in the error log when I make a connection from the client: Oct 27 08:49:16 imapproxy01 dovecot: auth: Fatal: passdb imap: Cannot verify certificate without ssl_ca_dir or ssl_ca_file settingOct 27 08:49:16 imapproxy01 dovecot: master: Error: service(auth): command startup failed, throttling for 2 secs

I solved that certificate problem (temporarily) by disabling cert check. But now I get the following more obscure error: Error: Couldn't drop privileges: User is missing UID (see mail_uid setting)

You know that imapc != imap proxy.
imapc is a thin client, which is a "mail storage provider" like maildir.
imap proxy is when you proxy the connection somewhere. this is done with proxy_ settings in passdb.
You need to specify
ssl_client_ca_dir = /etc/ssl/certs
to get cert verification working with imapc. it's required.

Hi Aki, Thanks. I didn't know that about imapc - but by the way, I finally got it working. The reason why I am inserting Dovecot between my (single) client and our Exchange server (eventually - I am still testing against imap.gmail.com) is to that I can manipulate the email with Sieve due to limitations of my client (Genesys). Give the above scenario, should I use imapc or proxy ? Thanks for your help. Regards, David.

Hi Aki , I need to Sieve to match the message headers TO, CC, BCC against a list of email addresses. If it gets a match, I want Sieve to set the x-original-to header to that email address (I think I can do that with Sieve extension). Is this doable? Thanks,David.

imap proxy is a "dumb proxy", it will just pass everything to google & back after you've authenticated.
imapc allows you to use imap sieve to some extent. I'm not sure what kind of Sieve manipulations you have in mind.
