Good eye, that was it. </p> <p>I hand cranked the files versus a copy 'n paste and clearly missed that piece. What's interesting is the primary domain mail was delivered with no issues (the unit has been in service for a year an a half) - it wasn't until using a second domain that it was evident there was a problem.</p> <p>Thanks Richard. </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/postfix-delivers-to-dovecot-but-user-mail-not-showing#post-926 Mon, 07 Feb 2011 19:11:57 +0000 Richard 926@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Erich, from this piece of the logfile it shows that you are not using dovecot but are using the virtual maildir config of postfix itself.</p> <p><code>Feb 7 11:47:00 s1 postfix/virtual[25171]: D0290337F0C: to=&lt;erich@bpisys-tx.com&gt;, orig_to=&lt;eprinz@bpisys-tx.com&gt;, relay=virtual, delay=0.53, delays=0.52/0.01/0/0, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to maildir)</code></p> <p>Should look like:<br /> <code>Feb 7 20:09:10 iMac27i7 postfix/pipe[84744]: A5F4E77F39E: to=&lt;info@richard5.tld&gt;, relay=dovecot, delay=0.84, delays=0.05/0.01/0/0.77, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered via dovecot service)</code></p> <p>So I think you missed something in your postfix configuration. Do you have the line: <code>virtual_transport = dovecot</code> in main.cf ? </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/postfix-delivers-to-dovecot-but-user-mail-not-showing#post-925 Mon, 07 Feb 2011 16:57:22 +0000 erich.dys@bpisys.com 925@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Yes, the directories exist. I've double checked ownership and rights and these match with the directory where mail IS being delivered successfully.</p> <p>Here's a snippet of the mail.log showing inbound mail being handled correctly by Postfix:</p> <p>Feb 7 11:46:59 s1 postfix/smtpd[25167]: connect from asp.reflexion.net[69.84.129.233]<br /> Feb 7 11:46:59 s1 postfix/smtpd[25167]: setting up TLS connection from asp.reflexion.net[69.84.129.233]<br /> Feb 7 11:46:59 s1 postfix/smtpd[25167]: Anonymous TLS connection established from asp.reflexion.net[69.84.129.233]: TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)<br /> Feb 7 11:46:59 s1 postfix/smtpd[25167]: D0290337F0C: client=asp.reflexion.net[69.84.129.233]<br /> Feb 7 11:46:59 s1 postfix/cleanup[25170]: D0290337F0C: message-id=&lt;0699B874-3A6B-4353-9E3E-A91B5BCE2173@bpisys.com&gt;<br /> Feb 7 11:47:00 s1 postfix/qmgr[25097]: D0290337F0C: from=&lt;erich@bpisys.com&gt;, size=43858, nrcpt=1 (queue active)<br /> Feb 7 11:47:00 s1 postfix/virtual[25171]: D0290337F0C: to=&lt;erich@bpisys-tx.com&gt;, orig_to=&lt;eprinz@bpisys-tx.com&gt;, relay=virtual, delay=0.53, delays=0.52/0.01/0/0, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to maildir)<br /> Feb 7 11:47:00 s1 postfix/qmgr[25097]: D0290337F0C: removed<br /> Feb 7 11:47:00 s1 postfix/smtpd[25167]: disconnect from asp.reflexion.net[69.84.129.233]</p> <p>Then .... nothing. </p> <p>What's the appropriate debug setting in Postfix so we can see the details of where this might be breaking? </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/postfix-delivers-to-dovecot-but-user-mail-not-showing#post-918 Tue, 01 Feb 2011 20:08:26 +0000 Richard 918@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Do you see the directories appear in /usr/local/virtual for those new domains? And can you see the new emails appear on the filesystem in the sub directories of the users. </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/postfix-delivers-to-dovecot-but-user-mail-not-showing#post-917 Mon, 31 Jan 2011 22:41:42 +0000 erich.dys@bpisys.com 917@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>This is on a 10.5 install per the documentation (64 bit).</p> <p>The primary domain functions normally for mail delivery service, however, 2nd and subsequent virtual domain users inbox mail are not visible via IMAP.</p> <p>The log files show Postfix handing mail off to Dovecot:</p> <p> relay=virtual, delay=0.56, delays=0.54/0/0/0.02, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to maildir) </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/whats-the-minimal-simplest-config#post-700 Thu, 03 Sep 2009 11:27:57 +0000 Richard 700@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>The simplest mail setup for more than one domain is the basic mailserver setup with postfix, dovecot, postfixadmin and roundcube. Look at the doc pages and start from there. However I'm still testing the setup on Snow Leopard so you might be better of waiting for another week till I have tested and got everythign working under snow leopard.</p> <p>For DNS you can use Bind, is installed but you need to be an expert to configure it. If someone else knows a better solution I would like to know as well! </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/whats-the-minimal-simplest-config#post-699 Wed, 02 Sep 2009 18:50:45 +0000 RobLewis 699@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>I'm getting ready to migrate from Tiger Server on a G4 to Snow Leopard (not server) on a Mac Mini. </p> <p>I want mail service for a few Macs, a PC, and a couple of "Audrey" internet appliances on my local domain. Except for the Audreys, which are POP-only, I could use an all-IMAP system. </p> <p>What do I need to install? I only need to handle one domain (though I'd like the ability to handle others). Thanks for any tips. </p> <p>Also: what's a good setup for running a local DNS to replace OS X Server's? </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/imap-ssl-connection-refused#post-440 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 19:41:58 +0000 john 440@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>No problems - everything is working great. Thanks again for your awesome guide!</p> <p>john </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/imap-ssl-connection-refused#post-439 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 12:52:42 +0000 Richard 439@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Please change the entry to <code>TLS_PROTOCOL=SSL23</code> which means to use SSL3 when possible and fall back to SSL2 when SSL3 isn't working. The cause of this is that not every mail client implemented the SSL3 protocol as it should be. I will update the documentation to reflect this change. Sorry I forgot to do it earlier, my apologies! </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/imap-ssl-connection-refused#post-438 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 11:51:22 +0000 john 438@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>hey richard - </p> <p>Thanks for the reply. I changed my /Library/StartupItems/CourierIMAP/CourierIMAP to use imapd-ssl.rc and I was able to connect. Thanks! However, then I started getting an ssl error that, in the mail log file, looked like:</p> <p>imapd-ssl[427]: couriertls: connect: error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number</p> <p>Google told me to change the line in /usr/local/etc/imapd-ssl from what you had:</p> <p>TLS_PROTOCOL=SSL3</p> <p>to </p> <p>TLS_PROTOCOL=SSL2</p> <p>and it is now working. So now my question is, is this a big deal? Should i try to get it working with ssl3, or is ssl2 "secure enough"? Thanks for your help.</p> <p>john </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/imap-ssl-connection-refused#post-437 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 10:46:42 +0000 Richard 437@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Did you start up the imap server with the ssl script, so that is <code>/usr/local/libexec/imapd-ssl.rc</code> instead of the normal <code>/usr/local/libexec/imapd.rc</code>.</p> <p>Otherwise it could be a firewall blocking access ? </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/imap-ssl-connection-refused#post-436 Sun, 13 Jan 2008 07:21:46 +0000 john 436@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>hi all - </p> <p>i set up the postfix ssl and imap ssl accourding to the article in the docs, and the postfix is working great, but i'm getting a connection refused if i try to connect to the server on port 993. is there a startup script or something that i need to add to get imap-ssl working? </p> <p>thanks for this great guide!</p> <p>john </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/imap-idle#post-375 Sun, 06 May 2007 18:43:44 +0000 Richard 375@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Thanks for the explanation on FAM, don't know why &lt;br&gt; doesn't work.

So today I'll give another shot at installing this. I noticed you have several guides, and they differ a little - is the guide on this site (diymacserver.com) the most recent one? </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/cannot-install-courier-imap-properly#post-358 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 21:58:19 +0000 Richard 358@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>You might have missed something during the configure phase, still good to know you've got it working. </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/cannot-install-courier-imap-properly#post-355 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 16:55:53 +0000 j416 355@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>How strange, I tried reinstalling courier-imap from scratch and this time it worked.

Everything went fine until I came to the point where I run this:</p> <pre><code> mini:~/Desktop/courier-imap-4.1.2 j$ sudo make install-configure make install-configure-local DESTDIR= /usr/local/etc/imapd.dist: No such file or directory /usr/local/etc/imapd-ssl.dist: No such file or directory /usr/local/etc/pop3d.dist: No such file or directory /usr/local/etc/pop3d-ssl.dist: No such file or directory </code></pre> <p>I guess I must somehow tell it to look in ./ for these files? What has gone wrong? I believe I have followed your guide down to the last detail..</p> <p>thank you</p> <p>Johan </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/transferring-from-another-imap-server#post-353 Sat, 14 Apr 2007 20:23:07 +0000 Richard 353@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Thanks, let us know how it works out or when you envounter other issues ! </p> http://diymacserver.com/forum/topic/transferring-from-another-imap-server#post-352 Fri, 13 Apr 2007 13:13:06 +0000 j416 352@http://diymacserver.com/forum/ <p>Thank you for your quick response.</p> <p>As for the mail file format, I really do not know which format it is using. I am at present quite unfamiliar with the differences between these two. I will try to move my mail using my mail client, if that doesn't work for one reason or another I will try another approach - I will post my results here. </p>
