This is how you remove the Inbox Prefix server-side when using Dovecot.
Firstly let’s create the file…
|
1 |
vi /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-prefix.conf |
Now we need to add the following to it…
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
namespace inbox { separator = . prefix = inbox = yes } |
Finally restart Dovecot…
|
1 |
service dovecot restart |
And you’re done.
This is how you can create default mailboxes automatically when using Dovecot and Plesk…
|
1 |
vi /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mailboxes.conf |
And add the following…
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 |
namespace inbox { mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts auto=subscribe } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash auto=subscribe } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent auto=subscribe } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } } |
Then restart Dovecot…
|
1 |
service dovecot restart |
Now when you add an email user in Plesk these mailboxes will be created automatically for them.
This is an update to a kb article at Plesk KB6312 on How to move the Plesk Mail Directory.
I will use the example folder /var/vmail
1. Edit psa.conf
|
1 |
vi /etc/psa/psa.conf |
Changing “PLESK_MAILNAMES_D” to the desired location…
|
1 2 |
# Location of qmail maildirs PLESK_MAILNAMES_D /var/vmail/mailnames |
2. Then run the following command which will create the new folder and copy the contents of the qmail directory to the new directory…
|
1 |
cp -a /var/qmail /var/vmail |
3. And change the maildirs in Dovecot…
|
1 |
vi /etc/dovecot/conf.d/15-maildir.conf |
Adding the following…
|
1 2 3 |
# Plesk Maildirs layout. mail_home = /var/vmail/mailnames/%Ld/%Ln mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/mailnames/%Ld/%Ln/Maildir |
4. Run…
|
1 |
/opt/psa/admin/bin/mchk --with-spam |
This will update the following configuration files
/etc/postfix/main.cf
/etc/postfix/master.cf
/etc/default/spamassassin
with the correct paths to your new Maildir.
5. We need to edit the spamtrain script…
|
1 |
vi /opt/psa/admin/sbin/spamtrain |
You will see line 8…
|
1 |
maildir="/var/qmail/mailnames" |
Simply change this to…
|
1 |
maildir="/var/vmail/mailnames" |
6. Now create the Spamassasin Home Directory…
|
1 2 3 |
cd /var/vmail/popuser mkdir .spamassassin chown -R popuser:popuser .spamassassin |
7. Lastly we need to update the default file in /etc/default/spamassassin to reflect our change…
