Kann Plesk mit Dovecot?

Hallo,

ich verstehe Plesk noch nicht, aber vermute das Plesk mit Dovecot nicht so einfach kann. Stimmt das?
Muss man warten bis Plesk Dovecot unterstüzt?

Danke und Grüße,
stefkey
 
Warum?

Dovecot kommuniziert mit dem Mailserver über Standard-Protokolle (meist IMAP).

Wenn Du einen passenden Vhost einrichtest, sollte der mit dem von Plesk bereitgestellten IMAP-Server (Courier) ohne Probleme kommunizieren können.
 
äähm, versteh ich nicht. Dovecot würde doch Courier ersetzen oder kann beides laufen? Dann würde im Maildir ja courier und dovecot spezifische Dateien liegen. Ist das so richtig?
 
Der Hauptgrund, weshalb Dovecot schneller als Courier IMAP ist, sind seine Index-Dateien. Da beide IMAP-Server letztlich auf die Mails im Maildir-Format zugreifen, kannst du Courier einfach durch Dovecot ersetzen. Da Plesk allerdings einen laufenden Courier IMAP voraussetzt, würde ich diesen einfach an 127.0.0.1:143 und Dovecot IMAP an das externe Interface binden. So sind Plesk und du glücklich.

Die Konfiguration von Dovecot musst du natürlich so anpassen, dass er die User-Credentials von Plesk erhält.

Hi,

also irgenwie würde ich das doch gerne zum Laufen bringen.
Ich kann also Plesk schön mit Courier-IMAP werkeln lassen und zusätzlich mit Dovecot (weil schneller!) die Mailverzeichnisse verwalten (per Webmailer E-Mails verschieben, suchen, schreiben löschen...)? Ich glaube wenn ich Dovecot installiere, wird zuerst mal Courier IMAP deinstalliert und nichts geht mehr...

Kann dazu jemand was sagen?

Wie schon geschrieben: Ja, das sollte klappen. Im Prinzip würde es auch ausreichen, einfach ein "virtuelles" Paket in die Paketverwaltung zu packen, das Plesk vorspiegelt, das Courier IMAP-Paket sei installiert.

Ich glaube wenn ich Dovecot installiere, wird zuerst mal Courier IMAP deinstalliert und nichts geht mehr...
Glaube, denke, hoffe… Probier es einfach aus! Wozu hat man denn Backups und eine Testumgebung? ;)
 
okay, ich hab mich vielleicht etwa vorsichtig ausgedückt.

Wenn ich Dovecot installiere, wird vom Installer Courier-IMAP deinstalliert. Plesk hat dann ein Problem.

Ein virtuelles Paket installieren klingt interessant, aber wie soll das dedn gehen. Pakete programmieren kann ich leider nicht :-)
Da gehts aber dann schon ans eingemachte, oder?

Danke mal für die bisherigen Ideen und Tips!

In dem Fall kannst du versuchen, den Paketmanager deiner Distribution doch irgendwie zu überreden, beide Pakete zu installieren (meistens geht das mit den Low-Level-Tools, z. B. dpkg bei Debian/Ubuntu) oder du kompilierst Dovecot IMAP selbst und packst es auf dein System (z. B. nach /usr/local oder /opt).
 
na super, das versuch ich mal! Hab zwar keine Ahnung wie ich da ansetzen soll, aber deine Tips und googel helfen sicher!

Besten Dank!!!
 
Nochmal etwas ausführlicher:

Ich weiss nicht, wie das aktuell ist, aber früher(tm) waren Debians dpkg-Files einfach nur ar-Archive, die

a) die zu installierenden Dateien enthielten
b) vier Skripte, die zu bestimmten Zeitpunkten ausgeführt wurden: postinst (vor der Installation), preinst (nach der Installation), postrm (vor der Deinstallation) und prerm (nach der Deinstallation)
c) Meta-Informationen enthielten

(Ich habe mich länger nicht mehr damit beschäftigt, aber ich denke, Debian-Pakete sind inzwischen auch digital signiert, so dass Du evtl. den Paketmanager (dpkg) "überreden" musst, Dein nicht-signiertes Paket zu installieren. Oder vielleicht kannst Du es auch selbst signieren?)
Du müsstest Dir jetzt ein Paket basteln, dass dieselben Meta-Informationen wie das echte Courier-IMAP-Paket enthält! Die Teile a) und b) können und sollten einfach leer bzw. funktionslos sein.
Zum "Auseinandernehmen" des originalen Courier-Paketes von Plesk und dem neupacken Deines "Fake-Pakets" leistet Dir übrigens dpkg-deb gute Dienste.

Die einfachste Idee wäre wohl, das Originalpaket auseinander zu packen, sämtliche Skripte und Binaries zu entfernen und daraus Dein "Fake-Paket" neu zu packen.

Wie das Ganze bei RPM-basierten Linuxen ;) funktioniert, weiß ich nicht- das Prinzip wird aber ähnlich sein.
 
okay. Ich hab nun Dovecot selber compiliert und installiert.
Nun ist glaub ich mein Latein am Ende! Denn ich verstehe nicht wie ich Dovecot nun an das externe Interface bringen soll.

Da Plesk allerdings einen laufenden Courier IMAP voraussetzt, würde ich diesen einfach an 127.0.0.1:143 und Dovecot IMAP an das externe Interface binden. So sind Plesk und du glücklich.

Ich nehme mal an das das nun alles über die dovecot.conf geht.

Hier ist mal der Anfang der unveränderten dovecot.conf mal zur Ansicht, falls jemand das interessiert:
Code:
## Dovecot configuration file

# If you're in a hurry, see http://wiki.dovecot.org/QuickConfiguration

# '#' character and everything after it is treated as comments. Extra spaces
# and tabs are ignored. If you want to use either of these explicitly, put the
# value inside quotes, eg.: key = "# char and trailing whitespace  "

# Default values are shown for each setting, it's not required to uncomment
# any of the lines. Exception to this are paths, they're just examples with
# the real defaults being based on configure options. The paths listed here
# are for configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
# --with-ssldir=/etc/ssl

# Base directory where to store runtime data.
base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/

# Protocols we want to be serving: imap imaps pop3 pop3s
# If you only want to use dovecot-auth, you can set this to "none".
#protocols = imap imaps
protocols = imap pop3 imaps pop3s

# IP or host address where to listen in for connections. It's not currently
# possible to specify multiple addresses. "*" listens in all IPv4 interfaces.
# "[::]" listens in all IPv6 interfaces, but may also listen in all IPv4
# interfaces depending on the operating system.
#
# If you want to specify ports for each service, you will need to configure
# these settings inside the protocol imap/pop3 { ... } section, so you can
# specify different ports for IMAP/POP3. For example:
#   protocol imap {
#     listen = *:10143
#     ssl_listen = *:10943
#     ..
#   }
#   protocol pop3 {
#     listen = *:10100
#     ..
#   }
listen = *

# Disable LOGIN command and all other plaintext authentications unless
# SSL/TLS is used (LOGINDISABLED capability). Note that if the remote IP
# matches the local IP (ie. you're connecting from the same computer), the
# connection is considered secure and plaintext authentication is allowed.
disable_plaintext_auth = no

# Should all IMAP and POP3 processes be killed when Dovecot master process
# shuts down. Setting this to "no" means that Dovecot can be upgraded without
# forcing existing client connections to close (although that could also be
# a problem if the upgrade is eg. because of a security fix). This however
# means that after master process has died, the client processes can't write
# to log files anymore.
#shutdown_clients = yes

##
## Logging
##

# Use this logfile instead of syslog(). /dev/stderr can be used if you want to
# use stderr for logging (ONLY /dev/stderr - otherwise it is closed).
#log_path = 

# For informational messages, use this logfile instead of the default

# Prefix for each line written to log file. % codes are in strftime(3)
# format.

#verbose_ssl = no

##
## Login processes
##

# wish to run the whole Dovecot without roots.
# http://wiki.dovecot.org/Rootless
#login_chroot = yes

# User to use for the login process. Create a completely new user for this,
# and don't use it anywhere else. The user must also belong to a group where

# Note that this user is NOT used to access mails.
# http://wiki.dovecot.org/UserIds
#login_user = dovecot

# Set max. process size in megabytes. If you don't use
# login_process_per_connection you might need to grow this.
#login_process_size = 32

# Should each login be processed in it's own process (yes), or should one
# login process be allowed to process multiple connections (no)? Yes is more
# secure, espcially with SSL/TLS enabled. No is faster since there's no need
# to create processes all the time.
#login_process_per_connection = yes

# Number of login processes to keep for listening new connections.
#login_processes_count = 3

# Maximum number of login processes to create. The listening process count
# usually stays at login_processes_count, but when multiple users start logging
# in at the same time more extra processes are created. To prevent fork-bombing
# we check only once in a second if new processes should be created - if all
# of them are used at the time, we double their amount until the limit set by
# this setting is reached.
#login_max_processes_count = 128

# Maximum number of connections allowed per each login process. This setting
# is used only if login_process_per_connection=no. Once the limit is reached,

# You should make sure that the process has at least

##
## Mailbox locations and namespaces
##

# Location for users' mailboxes. This is the same as the old default_mail_env
# setting. The default is empty, which means that Dovecot tries to find the
# mailboxes automatically. This won't work if the user doesn't have any mail
# yet, so you should explicitly tell Dovecot the full location.
#
# If you're using mbox, giving a path to the INBOX file (eg. /var/mail/%u)
# isn't enough. You'll also need to tell Dovecot where the other mailboxes are
# and where Dovecot can place its index files. This is called the "root mail
# directory", and it must be the first path given in the mail_location setting.
#
# There are a few special variables you can use, eg.:
#
#   %u - username
#   %n - user part in user@domain, same as %u if there's no domain
#   %d - domain part in user@domain, empty if there's no domain
#   %h - home directory
#
# See /usr/share/doc/dovecot-common/variables.txt for full list. Some examples:
#
#   mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir
#   mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
#   mail_location = mbox:/var/mail/%d/%1n/%n:INDEX=/var/indexes/%d/%1n/%n
#
# http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation
#
#mail_location = 

# If you need to set multiple mailbox locations or want to change default
# namespace settings, you can do it by defining namespace sections:
#
# You can have private, shared and public namespaces. The only difference
# between them is how Dovecot announces them to client via NAMESPACE
# extension. Shared namespaces are meant for user-owned mailboxes which are
# shared to other users, while public namespaces are for more globally
# accessible mailboxes.
#
# REMEMBER: If you add any namespaces, the default namespace must be added
# explicitly, ie. mail_location does nothing unless you have a namespace
# without a location setting. Default namespace is simply done by having a
# namespace with empty prefix.
#namespace private {
   # Hierarchy separator to use. You should use the same separator for all
   # namespaces or some clients get confused. '/' is usually a good one.
   # The default however depends on the underlying mail storage format.
   #separator = 

   # Prefix required to access this namespace. This needs to be different for
   # all namespaces. For example "Public/".

   # prefixes "~/mail/", "~%u/mail/" and "mail/".

# Different IMAP clients work in different ways, so they benefit from
# different cached fields. Some do not benefit from them at all. Caching more
# than necessary generates useless disk I/O, so you don't want to do that
# either.
#
# Dovecot attempts to automatically figure out what client wants and it keeps

# yet figured out what client needs, so it may not perform optimally. If you
# know what fields the majority of your clients need, it may be useful to set
# these fields by hand. If client doesn't actually use them, Dovecot will
# eventually drop them.

#  flock  : May not exist in all systems. Doesn't work with NFS.
#  lockf  : May not exist in all systems. Doesn't work with NFS.
#

  #  %v - Mailbox UIDVALIDITY
  #  %u - Mail UID
  #  %m - MD5 sum of the mailbox headers in hex (mbox only)
  #  %f - filename (maildir only)

  # If you want UIDL compatibility with other POP3 servers, use:
  #  UW's ipop3d         : %08Xv%08Xu
  #  Courier version 0   : %f
  #  Courier version 1   : %u
  #  Courier version 2   : %v-%u

  #  Older Dovecots      : %v.%u
  #  tpop3d              : %Mf
  #
  # Note that Outlook 2003 seems to have problems with %v.%u format which was
  # Dovecot's default, so if you're building a new server it would be a good
  # idea to change this. %08Xu%08Xv should be pretty fail-safe.
  #
  # NOTE: Nowadays this is required to be set explicitly, since the old
  # default was bad but it couldn't be changed without breaking existing
  # installations. %08Xu%08Xv will be the new default, so use it for new
  # installations.

# If you want to specify ports for each service, you will need to configure
