    Resolved How to edit Dovecot configuration

    @FuXXz, as you predicted: There isn't much spam at the moment as the server and domain are new, but this certainly confirms your diagnosis. I'm really grateful to you for pointing this out and spending the time making it clear. I will have to do some RTFM action, I think :) I'm usually quite...

    Resolved How to edit Dovecot configuration

    @FuXXz, thanks for the details. I'm using Spamassassin (Plesk Email Security and Warden are not installed). The mail directories for all the users I've set up so far have directories: and also other directories (cur, new and tmp) and several files starting dovecot, as well as maildirsize and...

    Question Mail on multiple subdomains

    In an organization (let's call its domain is "something.com" for illustration) there are several subdivisions, each wanting a different subdomain for their emails. For example, [email protected] is in the Alpha division, and [email protected] is in the Beta division. These divisions...

    Question Setting up a forwarding-only email address - why does it need a password?

    I looked at the Users page in Plesk after creating the email address, and there's no corresponding user. Is it a sort of hidden user? I would never want to log in with the forwarding email, so I don't need a user, but I'm puzzled that you say it creates a user account that I cannot see. Would...

    Question Setting up a forwarding-only email address - why does it need a password?

    I would like to set up a mail address that is only for forwarding and does not have mailboxes (inbox, sent, etc). At https:/..../smb/email-address/create/domainId/1# I can see how to switch off the mailboxes and switch on forwarding, but it's still insisting on a password - this does not make...

    Resolved How to edit Dovecot configuration

    I think the real answer to my question is: there isn't a way to edit all the Dovecot configuration in Plesk; including namespaces; file have to be created/edited using a terminal (Plesk has an SSH terminal in Tools & Settings if you're not sure how to set up remote SSH from your local machine)...

    Resolved How to edit Dovecot configuration

    I don't know whether I've done this right but I have a working solution. I created a new file In this file, I copied the namespaces, except with prefix empty: namespace inbox { separator = . prefix = inbox = yes mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe # autocreate and autosubscribe the...

    Resolved How to edit Dovecot configuration

    @Peter Debik, thanks, that is helpful because you pointed out that I made a wrong assumption. I decided to hunt for the config files and found that you're right. It is by default configured for maildir. mail_location = maildir:/var/qmail/mailnames/%Ld/%Ln/Maildir:UTF-8 So the problem must be the...

    Resolved How to edit Dovecot configuration

    I have a fairly "clean" Plesk Obsidian installation, with Mail setup using the standard clicks under Domains (Roundcube, Dovecot, Postfix). In the default configuration, Dovecot uses mbox which doesn't let me have subfolders of Inbox. Instead, all the other standard boxes are children of Inbox...
