Please note that 2.3.17 release will be the last one to support Debian/Stretch since Bullseye is now supported. https://dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3.17.tar.gz https://dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3.17.tar.gz.sig Binary packages in https://repo.dovecot.org/ Docker images in https://hub.docker.com/r/dovecot/dovecot Regards Aki Tuomi Open-Xchange oy --- * Dovecot now logs a warning if time seems to jump forward at least 100 milliseconds. * dict: Lines logged by the dict process now contain the dict name as the prefix. * lib-index: mail_cache_fields, mail_always_cache_fields and mail_never_cache_fields now verifies that the listed header names are valid. Especially the UTF8 "–" character has sometimes been wrongly used instead of the ASCII "-". + *-login: Added login_proxy_rawlog_dir setting to capture rawlogs between proxy and backend. + dict: The server process now keeps the last 10 idle dict backends cached for maximum of 30 seconds. Practically this acts as a connection pool for dict-redis and dict-ldap. Note that this doesn't affect dict-sql, because it already had its own internal cache. + doveadm: New stats add/remove commands added to support changing the metrics configuration on runtime. + lazy_expunge: Added lazy_expunge_exclude settings to disable lazy_expunge for specific folders. \Special-use flags can be used as folder names. + lib-lua: Added a new helper function dovecot.restrict_global_variables() to disable or enable defining new global variables. - LAYOUT=index List index rebuild was missing. - LAYOUT=index: Duplicate GUIDs were not detected. - acl: When using acl_ignore_namespace Dovecot attempted to access or create dovecot-acl-list even when the namespace should have been ignored. For virtual namespaces this could have yielded errors about "Read-only file system" or "Permission denied". - auth: Setting the "master" passdb field to empty value would cause proxying to fail with an authentication error. Now an empty "master" field is ignored. - doveadm-server: Duplicate error lines were sent for failed commands. This didn't normally cause visible problems, except when using wildcards in usernames or -A parameter to go through multiple users. - doveadm-server: Logs written by doveadm-server were often missing log prefixes, especially mail_log_prefix for mail commands. Logs sent to doveadm TCP client were also missing log prefixes. - doveadm: v2.3 regression: batch command always crashes. - doveadm: v2.3.11 regression: Commands failed if ssl_cert or ssl_key files weren't readable by the user running doveadm, even though doveadm didn't actually use these settings - imap-hibernate: Process may crash at deinit: Panic: file ioloop.c: line 928 (io_loop_destroy): assertion failed: (ioloop->cur_ctx == NULL). - imap: Using imap_fetch_failure=no-after can cause assert-crash with some IMAP commands if reading the mail fails (e.g. wrong cached mail size). Fixes: Panic: file index-mail-headers.c: line 198 (index_mail_parse_header_init): assertion failed: (!mail->data.header_parser_initialized) - imap: v2.3.10 regression: When using INDEXPVT to enable private \Seen flags (for shared or public namespaces) the STORE command did not send untagged replies for the \Seen flag changes. - imap: v2.3.15 regression: If PREVIEW/SNIPPET is not the final FETCH option in the command, the IMAP FETCH response is broken. - imap: v2.3.15 regression: MOVE command leaks mailbox if it can't be opened and crashes at deinit: Panic: file mail-user.c: line 229 (mail_user_deinit): assertion failed: ((*user)->refcount == 1). - imapc: Copying nonexistent mail via imapc could have crashed. Fixes: Panic: file mail-storage.c: line 2385 (mailbox_transaction_commit_get_changes): assertion failed: (ret saved_uids) == save_count || array_count(&changes_r->saved_uids) == 0). - indexer: v2.3.15 regression: Process crashes if indexer-client disconnects while it's waiting for command reply. This happened for example if IMAP SEARCH triggered long fts indexing and the IMAP client disconnected while waiting for the reply. - indexer: v2.3.15 regression: Process may have crashed in some situations. - indexer: v2.3.15 regression: indexer-worker processes may not have reached the process_limit in some situations, possibly even using just one indexer-worker process even though there were many indexing requests queued. - lib-compression: Reading lz4 compressed mdbox mails may crash. Fixes: Panic: file istream.c: line 345 (i_stream_read_memarea): assertion failed: (!stream->blocking). - lib-compression: bench-compress crashes due to xz being read-only. - lib-lua: Fix linking libdict_lua for non-GNU linkers when Lua support is disabled. - lib-mail: There was no limit on how large an email header name could be. Processable header names are now limited to 1000 bytes. - lib-oauth2: Dovecot disallowed JWT tokens if their validity time was older than token creation time (nbf
