I have to keep the original mails since the server I'm using is still only in test phase. If I download all the mails and the server needs to be reinstalled that wouldn't be a good thing. :) Plus the mailboxes are important like sh*t.... :) I'll let you know if it works.

32
What if.....

I make a batchfile that runs fetchmail for all users ( line by line after each other ) and fetches all emails. If I'm not doing this with the daemon it should do this only once am I right?
IF that has been done and all mails have arrived, then I can start the daemon but to recieve only the new messages. Then it wouldn't spam the mailbox with duplicated mails ( since the old ones were downloaded once and it wasn't made with the daemon ) and would still download all newly recieved messages. Right?

33
Getting there. :)

It does fetch all email and keeps them on the source server as well. Magnificant, thank you. Now, ther is still one problem. :D It keeps fetching it non-stop and now in my test account I have 2 messages but each 20 times ( before I stopped fetchmail ). I don't know if there is any way of forcing the fetchmail to compare the mails and see if it already exists. If there is not, then I'll try to solfe it like this:

1stly on Friday I'll reset all users password so I can add them all to the fetchmailrc and start fetchmail so by Monday morning it will finnish with all users .( thinking about it, it is not a good idea because if it finnishes in 10 hours, then all users will have all their emails but 4 times.... ) damn, need to rethink again....

*Bert is brainstorming.........

Sounds very easy to do it with webmin. I'll give it a go, but ATM I'm very close to make fetchmail working as it is. There are 2 things I need to solve still. Oh and this is only a mail server. Nobody is going to log in directly, only the sysadmin.
1; Use IMAP and not POP3. I think this is why it grabs down the mails now correctly but deleting it as well from the original server
2; I want to enable this for multiple users

+1; I need to download the already opened messages as well once. Basicly copy the whole profile with subfolders and all messages inside it. Any tipp?

Here is my fetchmailrc:
Code: [Select]
set syslog;
set daemon 10;
set postmaster "postmaster@***.hu";
set logfile /home/rendszergazda/fetchmail.log;

defaults
   proto imap
   keep

poll i**e.be***an@***.hu
   via mail.t****e.hu
   user "i**e.be***an@***.hu"
   pass "********";
smtphost "z****l.****.hu smtpname "i**e.be****an@***.hu";

I know it is messed up, but I've found soooooooo many variations. I don't know wich one to use or wich is better, etc....

You gave me a very good and detailed example of fetchmail, thank you for it. However I have an issue. I'm using OpenChange ( can't use Zarafa, must use OpenChange ). I've made a simple set up for one account but I don't know where to set the time how often should it download new messages. That would be needed. Google-in it right now. :) I think it will work cause I've recieved ONE email to my original mail address and THAT has appeared in the newly created one. But that was on the weekend. I haven't recieved anything that was sent today. Damn, why did Zentyal remove this? Along with the old virtualization. That was very useful and awsome. I'm affraid that Zentyal is beginning to look like a very plain server system with purchaseable modules. Am I alone with this feeling?

36
Question: Can I ( or is it adviceable to ) set up the fetchmail with IMAP instead of POP3 because I wish to keep the mails on the external accounts server as well. I don't want to download it and delete.

37
Jesus, god damn it. Why did they remove it? I'm using Zentyal because it is user friendly and I can learn ubuntu server and setting slowly while still operating it as a "noob". Are they gonna bring it back somewhen? BTW: I have to use OpenChange, so it will be 2x more problematic for me. Thanks for the link, I'm observing and studying them.

Installation and Upgrades / Where did External mail recieve go?

Hey Guys!

I've just noticed that the external mail recieve is missing from the Mail module in Zentyal 3.5! Where did it go? I've read a few words that sais fetchmaili is still in and working, but how and where?

Cheers!

the hidden attribute examples are in Zentyal as well? Can you specify me a few hidden attribute for a user with mail address and OpenChange? Because I think I've found a way to view them in the LDAP Administrator.

I see your point Stuart and I'm gonna try it as soon as it is possible for me, but right now I needed an ASAP sollution and the trial version of the LDAP Administrator did the trick. It was as simple as I wrote it. I just made a filter to export all the users who had the mail=*@#####.## in LDIF. I checked the file with Notepad++ and looked pretty nice. Imported the file to the server with the same app and suprisingly it was a 99,99% success. If the export is only to have a backup and you're gonna import the users to a server with the same setup, I think it works fine.

But I'm deffinetly going to try the bulk user thingy. THanks a lot! Shall I mark the topic solved?

Hophophop!

I've found a 3rd party that works like a charm.
Softterra LDAP Administrator can easily export and later import the users without errors.

Upside is:
It will save the OpenChange status + mail address + home directory path as well

Downside:
Passwords has to be reset to all users
home folders has to be created in advance ( tho I didn't tested it yet with exporting from 1 server and importing to another )
Softterra is not a free software... U have to buy it

Didn't think this topic will be so "crowded", but I'm glad we are trying to solve it. :)
I'm also trying the import/export with Apaches directory studio and somehow the export is fine ( I think ), but non-stop getting the following error message at import:
"Error while importing LDIF. The primary group isn't settable on add operations."

Did you experience this error if yes, what was the sollution to it?

Damn, I'M using 3.5 since it is based on the 14.04 and not the 13.10. I'm searching for a good 3rd party software ATM.

Installation and Upgrades / Import/Export users at reinstall
« on: July 07, 2014, 09:29:14 am »
Hy,

THe question is obvious. I'm planing to install a server with around 50-60 users. When I add all of them then I would like to make a kind of backup in case if I have to re install it. I saw a few topics about it, but haven't tried them yet. Can you please provide me the best way to export, then later import the users? Obviously the domain name / mail address would stay the same. I just don't want hours to be taken only by adding the users one by one all the time when I have to. A nice script to add them from a cvs file would be very nice for example. But please excuse me and my newbieness. I'm not that familiar with servers and server methods yet.

Bert

Are you connecting Outlook to the server as Exchange or with IMAP/POP3 ?
