Confirmation if this is true.

I am configuring a mailserver but the guide I am following says:

Code:

Because the current state of ISPConfig 3 (3.0.4) does not support Dovecot 2.x, we need to handle Dovecot configuration ourselves.

    First confirm Dovecot version :
        mail1 server shell> dpkg -l | grep dovecot : Dovecot is version 2.0.13 on my system.
    Second confirm that Dovecot cannot start :
        mail1 server shell> nmap localhost : check to see which services are running - smtp is running but both pop3 & imap is down (you may need to install nmap).
        mail1 server shell> service dovecot start : it looks like we can start Dovecot, but ..
        mail1 server shell> service dovecot status : .. actually we cannot.
    Ok, time to reconfigure Dovecot. There are so many changes needed that it is most easy to rewrite the /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf file from scratch. Here is the full dovecot.conf file as it should look like :
        !include_try /usr/share/dovecot/protocols.d/*.protocol
        !include conf.d/*.conf.
        mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir : overwrite the default mail_location value. %d is domain, %n is account.
        (email messages to [email protected] will be stored in /home/vmail/example.com/rasmus/Maildir)
        disable_plaintext_auth = no : otherwise I cannot get Gmail POP3 integration to work.
        namespace {
            type = private : this namespace contains only the users own mailboxes. (there are also shared and public types).
            separator = . : char for separating child folders, eg. work.design or work.programming.
            prefix = INBOX.
            inbox = yes : this namespace contains the inbox (there are only one inbox).
        }
        protocol lda { : we need to overwrite the protocol lda setting in conf.d/01-mail-stack-delivery.conf
            auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master : UNIX socket path to Dovecot LDA.
            postmaster_address = root@localhost : here it may be better to use your own email address
            mail_plugins = sieve
            log_path = /var/vmail/dovecot-deliver.log : ISPConfig creates the /var/vmail base directory
            deliver_log_format = msgid=%m: %$
            rejection_reason = Your message to <%t> was automatically rejected:%n%r
        }
        auth default {
            user = root
            mechanisms = plain login
            passdb sql {
                args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf
            }
            userdb static {
                args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/var/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes
            }
            socket listen {
                master { : master socket gives access to userdb information typically so the Dovecot LDA can find mailbox locations
                    path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
                    mode = 0600
                    user = vmail
                }
                client {
                    path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth : tells Dovecot where to communicate with Postfix authentication.
                    mode = 0660 : tells Dovecot that there are read & write access.
                    user = postfix : tells Dovecot to use the postfix user for access.
                    group = postfix : tells Dovecot use the postfix group for access.
                }
            }
        }

Before I made those changes I wanted to confirm, this is the current content of that file:

Code:

nano /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf 


protocols = imap pop3
auth_mechanisms = plain login
disable_plaintext_auth = no
log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S "
mail_privileged_group = vmail
ssl_cert = </etc/postfix/smtpd.cert
ssl_key = </etc/postfix/smtpd.key
passdb {
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf
  driver = sql
}
userdb {
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf
  driver = sql
}
plugin {
  quota = dict:user::file:/var/vmail/%d/%n/.quotausage
  sieve=/var/vmail/%d/%n/.sieve
}
service auth {
  unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
    group = postfix
    mode = 0660
    user = postfix
  }
  unix_listener auth-userdb {
    group = vmail
    mode = 0600
    user = vmail
  }
  user = root
}
protocol imap {
  mail_plugins = quota imap_quota
}
protocol pop3 {
  pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv
  mail_plugins = quota
}
protocol lda {
  mail_plugins = sieve quota
}

Should I replace the code?

 

How do you fix the issue in the Server List where they always show warning: I have tried update and upgrade then a reboot, but it never fixes...
It always says something needs an update.
