OpenLDAP backend special

• Add enabledService=lda, required by Dovecot 2.x.
  • Note: If you're running dovecot-1.1.x, or 1.2.x, then please stay on that version, but it's still recommended to add this missing value for existing users. It won't impact current mail services.
  • Note: Dovecot-2.x is the default version on RHEL/CentOS/Scieitnfic Linux 6.x.

Dovecot-2.x requires enabledService=enablelda for receiving email for virtual mail users, so we should add it if users doesn't have it.

Steps:

• Download python script used to adding missing values.

# cd /root/
# wget http://iredmail.googlecode.com/hg/extra/update/updateLDAPValues_072_to_073.py

• Open updateLDAPValues_072_to_073.py, config LDAP server related settings in file head. e.g.

uri = 'ldap://127.0.0.1:389'
basedn = 'o=domains,dc=iredmail,dc=org'
bind_dn = 'cn=vmailadmin,dc=iredmail,dc=org'
bind_pw = 'passwd'

Tip:

• • You can find them in iRedAdmin config file or iRedMail.tips file under your iRedMail installation directory.
  • Use 'cn=Manager' instead of 'cn=vmailadmin' here is ok too.

• Execute this script, it will add missing values for mail accounts:

# python updateLDAPValues_072_to_073.py

MySQL backend special

• Add column: mailbox.enablelda, required by Dovecot 2.x, used to replace mailbox.enabledeliver.

$ mysql -uroot -p
mysql> USE vmail;
mysql> ALTER TABLE mailbox ADD COLUMN enablelda TINYINT(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT 1;
mysql> ALTER TABLE mailbox ADD INDEX enablelda (enablelda);
