Email domain not delivering to shared folder

Bug
, ,
1

NethServer Version: 7.4
Module: dovecot

I’ve set up my email domain in the web config, and selected “accept unknown recipients”. If I select an email address in the down box, unsorted mail is delivered to that user. If I select a shared folder then email is not delivered to that folder.

Here is the catch-all entry in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

override_fields = uid=983 gid=979 home=/var/lib/nethserver/vmail/vmail+testmailfolder

Why can’t I get unsorted mail delivered to a shared folder?

Thanks
Bob

Hello @bobtskutter,

I tested it, created a shared mailbox with domain admins as owner group, set catch all and select shared folder, wrote some mails to not existing users. Then I used roundcube to check for the mails so I logged in as admin (as only domain admins have access), I had to add (subscribe) the public folder and in this folder I can see my shared mailbox and the mails I sent.

Did you edit the config file and enter the line? I have two override_fields lines in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:

override_fields = uid=987 gid=983 home=/var/lib/nethserver/vmail/%Ln
...
override_fields = uid=987 gid=983 home=/var/lib/nethserver/vmail/%u

@mrmarkuz, thank you for the reply (and the detailed testing).
I used the web interface to create the catch-all. there is only 1 entry in the dovecot config file.

What does the %Ln and %u refer to?
My entry has a real folder name (vmail+testmailfolder)

thanks
bob

Sorry, I tested on Email 2 (Beta) but there it just works. On default mail I have the same line and the same problem you have.

The mails are there:

[root@testserver ~]# ls /var/lib/nethserver/vmail/vmail+testmailbox/Maildir/new

My /var/log/maillog:

@mrmarkuz

Yup…that’s what happening on my system.
Thank you for confirming the issue.
Is there a fix? (other than switching to email2, which is beta)

I reproduced the issue, both with mail and mail2.
Would you mind opening the issue on github?
