Re: How move vmail folder to microsoft shared folder ?

1.- we try creating access to shared folder modifying /etc/fstab
//xx.xx.xx.xx/disco11tb / disk11tb cifs user = vmail, password = vmail, dir_mode = 0755, file_mode = 0755, noexec, user, rw, nounix, uid = 2000, gid = 8, iocharset = utf8 0 0
- installing Iredmail directly in the folder /disk11tb/vmail, error appears during the installation that can not install backup files, then when trying mail solution, error when sending messages as it does not allow to save the mail in sent folder
2.- We test installing solution and store mail in srv centos (everything works), then move folder
mv /var/vmail/vmail1  /disco11tb/
ln -s /disk11tb/vmail1 /var/vmail/vmail1
error when sending messages as it does not allow saving the mail in sent folders

Check Dovecot wiki page: https://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation/SharedDisk
Quote:

Samba / CIFS

Dovecot's temporary files may include a colon character ':' in their filename, which is not a permitted character when using cifs. Dovecot also renames the temporary files whilst holding a lock in them, which generates the error 'Text file is busy'.

Cifs/smbfs is unlikely to work as a remote filesystem.

How about share the disk by NFS service on Windows server?
