TwitterWe've recently (otherwise succesfully) migrated from old plesk 11.* servers to up-to-date version 12 ones.
We use dovecot on the new, and used courier on the old plesks, and conversion to dovecot went nicely using http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier
- The .qmail files in users Maildir folders under /var/qmail/mailnames/ should have the line
/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d "$DELIVERED_TO"
in them, but everytime we change or add a new e-mail account, they get the line
/usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir
instead, which was in use on the old plesk server, and causes incoming mail to not be delivered. We - of course - do an automated
grep -rl '| /usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir' --include ".qmail" /var/qmail/mailnames/ | xargs sed -i 's,/usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir,/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d "$DELIVERED_TO",g'
because of that, as a cronjob, but it's quite silly to have to do that..
I think it's related to the second issue, which is:
- In Plesk panel, under Home>Tools & Settings> Server-Wide Mail Settings, it says
"Installed IMAP/POP3 server Courier-IMAP"
while via https://pleskserverx:8447/select_components.html under "Different IMAP/POP3 servers"
How do we get the entry changed under Server-wide mail settings so that it correctly states the IMAP server in use? And this would probably also get the .qmail file to be creating the correct line.
When we installed this plesk server, I don't recall setting it to use Courier ever, so either plesk has decided to pick that itself, or has taken that setting from the old server somehow (without notifying us about that by the way)..
