配置dovecot1.0 beta3使支持pop3s和imaps

anstan

# wget
http://www.dovecot.org/releases/dovecot-1.0.beta3.tar.gz
# tar zxvf dovecot-1.0.beta3.tar.gz
# cd dovecot-1.0.beta3
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/dovecot --sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc/ --with-mysql --with-ssl=openssl --disable-ipv6
# make
# make install
# cp /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-example.conf /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

# useradd -s/sbin/nologin -d/dev/null dovecot

生成证书(for pop3s and imaps)
用dovecot自带的mkcert.sh脚本生成证书会出错，所以手动生成
先修改dovecot-openssl.cnf，改成你自己的信息，其中Common Name必须填fqdn(Fully Qualified Domain Name)
# openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -config doc/dovecot-openssl.cnf -out /etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem -keyout /etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem -days 3650

配置dovecot

编辑/usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf
# vi /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf
protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s
listen = *
ssl_cert_file = /etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem
ssl_key_file = /etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem
disable_plaintext_auth = no
default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mailbox/%d/%n
protocol pop3 {
  pop3_uidl_format = %u
}
auth default {
  mechanisms = plain
  passdb sql {
    args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot.passdb.mysql
    }
  userdb prefetch {
  }
}

建立/usr/local/etc/dovecot.passdb.mysql文件
# vi /usr/local/etc/dovecot.passdb.mysql
driver = mysql
connect = host=localhost dbname=postfix user=postfix password=postfix
default_pass_scheme = PLAIN
password_query = SELECT  password, maildir as userdb_home, 1001 as userdb_uid, 1001 as userdb_gid FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u'
