Dovecot Setup using webmin Rumi, July 10, 2008July 10, 2008 Step 1 Networking and Protocols In “Server mail protocols”- select IMAP and POP3 You can also select IMAP (SSL) and POP3 (SSL) if you plan to server through SSL Step 2 Mail Files I decided not to store mail in the default location which is /var/mail In my earlier postfix set up I mentioned that I was planning to store user’s mail in /home/mail locaiton For this a short-cut path was created too using ln -s /home/mail /var/spool/mail (don’t worry you don’t have to do all these steps unless you did not follow the postfix set up section) So, now we need to tell Dovecot from where he’s going to serve mails to the users. Let’s start- Mail Files > Mail File Location > Other Dovecot Location > mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/home/mail/%u Now telnet from your windows command prompt to- telnet SERVER_IP 110 then enter user XXXX then enter pass ***** then enter retr 1 Guess it will show the first mail in the box in command prompt 🙂 That’s it! BTW, there’s also a good Mail_locaiton text for Dovecost available on their website too! Here it is- http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation Related Configurations (Linux)
