Hello
I had to ditch the qpopper server I have been using for decades and pulled the dovecot server down with zypper. I'm having trouble setting it up.
I started it by hand but were does it log and how can I set it up to start out of the box? Is it using xinetd?

Below is my HOWTO for Dovecot 22 zypper in --no-recommends dovecot In /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf protocols = imap (I don't want pop3 and lmtp) In /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir Within namespace inbox: prefix = INBOX. (note the dot, it is needed) In /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf ssl = yes ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem zypper in ca-certificates-mozilla change /usr/share/doc/packages/dovecot/dovecot-openssl.cnf with the particulars of your system. and execute mkcert.sh in the same folder. You may need to adapt the time the certificate should be valid (the default is 365 days, I use 3653; 10 years). systemctl enable dovecot.service systemctl start dovecot.service This is all I need. -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
