Importing mbox archives into a inbox?
by Paul Hoffman 27 Jul '15

27 Jul '15

Greetings from a dovecot newbie. I have a bunch of mailing list archives (in mbox) format that I want to dump into the inbox for a particular account on the system. I want them to retain all of their information, particularly the date. I'm not seeing how to do this, but I could be missing it. Is this LDA or LMTP with some command-line options I'm not seeing? --Paul Hoffman

POP3 getting previously delivered messages.
by Jas Reehal 24 Jul '15

24 Jul '15

Hi All, This is my first post to this list. I have recently upgraded to dovecot version 2.2.10. 1. I have one POP3 user who does not want to delete his email on the server. 2. He has accumulated over 19000 messages, and the 'dovecot.uidlist' file has more than 19000 lines! 3. Occasionally now when he has received one or more new emails, and his email client does a 'get new mail' operation (POP3) he begins to receive email he has already received previously. last time … [View More]this happened all 19000+ messages were delivered again, leaning to duplicate entries in all his mailboxes. I have reproduced this issue with a dummy email account with a POP3 client, leaving all messages on the server. I have delivered 20000 messages to this email account, each about 1.3k ins size and each with .... Subject: Message number <n> Body containing "Message number <n>" where <n> is 1 to 20000 now occasionally if I send another message to this email account, and then check for new messages using a POP3 client I get more messages downloaded than I expect! The 'dovecot.uidlist' file is not corrupt, but I beleive due ti it's size (number of lines) the is an issue on compiling a ' POP3 drop-list'. I have attached a file 'dovecot-a.txt' which shows the 'dovecot -a' output from my server. Based on what I have investigated I believe that this issue may not be correlated with a migration to version 2.2.10, but more to do with the number of messages retained on the server. Is there anyone who has any insight into what is happening and if there is any remedy, perhaps a "pop3_client_workarounds =" or other POP3 or UIDL directive in the conf files? The user is stubbornly resisting migration to IMAP, because of the time and effort he says will be required to replicate his organised filing/storage of messages on the server.

Authenticate system user with alternate password
by AC 23 Jul '15

23 Jul '15

Is there a way to configure Dovecot to authenticate a system user against a different password list? I want to give my own personal account on my machine a password for IMAP and have that be different from the password I use to log into the system for maintenance purposes. I currently do this for outbound email by having the MTA authenticate against a SASL database during the initial SMTP connection (STARTTLS).

dovecot proxy/director and high availability design

I'm trying to determine which dovecot components to use and how to order them in the network path from client to mail store. If I have say 1,000 users, all stored in MySQL (or LDAP) and have 4 mail stores, configured into 2, 2 node pods. MS1 and MS2 are pod1 and are configured with replication (dsync) and host users 0-500. MS3 and MS4 are pod2 and are configured with replication between them and host users 501-1000. Ideally the active connections in pod1 would be split 50/50 between MS1 … [View More]

[Dovecot Antispam] Can't seem to load plugin
by James Lott 21 Jul '15

21 Jul '15

Hello list, I'm hoping there is a user of the antispam plugin out there who might be able to lend a pointer or two. I am running dovecot 2.2.18 on FreeBSD 10 (doveconf -n attached), where I have installed the binary dovecot2-antispam-plugin package. I have put together what should, in my estimation, be a working configuration for the plugin. I have reviewed the man page and the online documentation, and I think at the *very least* I should be seeing errors for something not working … [View More]

Problems with IMAP/POP and dovecot director on backend (director_proxy_maybe)
by dominik 20 Jul '15

20 Jul '15

Hello dovecot community, first of all: dovecot ist great! ;) ...nevertheless I´ve got some problems to get my director scenario running as needed/expected :( My scenario: I´d like to configure two dovecot backends, without the need for multiple dovecot instances. Both backend servers are active/active and act on top of a glusterfs storage, which implies the need for dovecot director. As described in release notes (v2.2.17) this should be possible by setting the extra field "… [View More]director_proxy_maybe=yes".: "+ director: Implemented director_proxy_maybe passdb extra field to be able to run director and backend in the same Dovecot instance. (LMTP doesn't support mixed proxy/non-proxy destinations currently.)" My setup: * 1 LMTP client (SLES11p3 with postfix) * 1 IMAP/POP3 client (Debian8 with thunderbird 31.6.0): 10.0.0.26. The client connects through a dovecot mailproxy or direct. * 1 dovecot mailproxy: 10.0.1.151 * 2 mailbox backends running dovecot v2.2.18 on SLES11p3 with mail_location pointing to a glusterfs-mountpoint (GlusterFS: v3.6.3) * mailbox01.example.de: 10.0.2.21 * mailbox02.example.de: 10.0.2.22 * mailbox-gluster.example.de points as an A-RR to 10.0.2.21 and 10.0.2.22. My problem: With LMTP everything works fine (thanks for this!). The director sets the "host" field correctly and all delivery attempts work fine to the estimated backend servers. But when I try to connect via IMAP-/POP3-client (through proxy or direct) it fails with following log messages. It seems, that the director doesn´t set the host field within IMAP/POP sessions before proxying!? auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=46359) imap-login: ID sent: x-session-id=V3iJmU4biAAK/BAa, x-originating-ip=10.0.0.26, x-originating-port=54408, x-connected-ip=10.0.1.151, x-connected-port=143, x-proxy-ttl=4: user=<>, rip=10.0.1.151, lip=10.0.2.21, session=<RVnAm04bzwAK/FCX> auth: Debug: client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=imap session=RVnAm04bzwAK/FCX lip=10.0.2.21 rip=10.0.1.151 lport=143 rport=54735 resp=<hidden> auth: Debug: ldap(tester(a)example.de,10.0.1.151,<RVnAm04bzwAK/FCX>): bind search: base=o=example,c=de filter=(&(|(uid=tester@example.de)(mail=tester@example.de))(!(<cut-cut-cut>)) [...] auth: Debug: client passdb out: OK 1 user=tester(a)example.de director_proxy_maybe=yes lip=10.0.2.21 lport=143 proxy pass=<hidden> imap-login: Debug: Ignoring unknown passdb extra field: director_proxy_maybe imap-login: Debug: Ignoring unknown passdb extra field: lip imap-login: Debug: Ignoring unknown passdb extra field: lport imap-login: Error: proxy: host not given: user=<tester(a)example.de>, method=PLAIN, rip=10.0.2.151, lip=10.0.2.21, session=<RVnAm04bzwAK/FCX> imap-login: Disconnected (internal failure, 1 successful auths): user=<tester(a)example.de>, method=PLAIN, rip=10.0.2.151, lip=10.0.2.21, session=<RVnAm04bzwAK/FCX> Finally the output of "doveadm proxy list" is empty!

Dovecot-EE repository for Debian 8 (Jessie/stable)
by Bernhard Schmidt 17 Jul '15

17 Jul '15

Hi, are there plans to support Debian 8 (alias stable, alias jessie) in the dovecot-ee repository? Currently there are only squeeze and wheezy repos. The wheezy repo is uninstallable due to an unsatisfyable dependency on libicu48. Of course you can install libicu48 from Wheezy on a Jessie system, but this will break security updates and might not be the best idea for a library like that. Bernhard

Quota policy service not rejecting messages when user over quota
by james＠lottspot.com 17 Jul '15

For some very odd reason, the quota-status service is failing to enforce quotas. Every other aspect of my configuration is working with absolutely no problems. When I attempt delivery via LTMP, the message is, as expected, rejected due to the user's inbox being full. root@smtp:/usr/local/etc/mail-config # nc -U /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp < 220 mx0.lottspot.com Dovecot ready. > LHLO localhost < 250-mx0.lottspot.com < 250-8BITMIME < 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES < … [View More]

question on Dovecot replication
by Arnold Wang 17 Jul '15

17 Jul '15

I'm running Dovecot 2.2.x and have a question on its replication capability. I plan to run Dovecot in two different sites with two nodes at each site. My question is how many replication partners can each Dovecot node have? Can I define three "mail_replica" entries in every node so any message received by one node will be replicated to three other nodes automatically? Thanks in advance for your help.

Admin access to sieve filters with managesieve
by Christian Theune 15 Jul '15

15 Jul '15

Hi, I’ve been a long-time user of Cyrus and started using sieve with Dovecot recently. A question that came up is: how do I access a users’s sieve scripts through managesieve without their credentials? Managesieve allows separating authentation and the corresponding mailbox identification, right? That’s what I used with cyrus sieve all the time. :) I didn’t find documentation in the wiki or googling where to configure someone as admin in Dovecot so he can access foreign sieve scripts through … [View More]

doveadm search -A problem with dropped privileges
by Sebastian Kricner 14 Jul '15

14 Jul '15

Hello, if you want to answer to this mail, please send it directly to me. I have found a big issue with the following command "doveadm -search -A". It whatsoever works by setting doveadm_worker_count = 0 in the dovecot.conf configuration file. The problem is that doveadm-server or something similar uses privileges of "nobody" and so it fails searching e-mails. Instead also the process tries to create a maildir for "nobody": Debug: Namespace : /var/mail/nobody doesn't exist yet, using … [View More]default permissions Debug: Namespace : Using permissions from /var/mail/nobody: mode=0700 gid=default Error: User initialization failed: Namespace '': mkdir(/var/mail/nobody) failed: Permission denied (euid=65534(nobody) egid=65534(nobody) missing +w perm: /var/mail, we're not in group 12(mail), dir owned by 0:12 mode=0775) Error: search: User init failed Error: userdb lookup: connect(/var/run/dovecot//auth-userdb) failed: Permission denied (euid=65534(nobody) egid=65534(nobody) missing +r perm: /var/run/dovecot//auth-userdb, we're not in group 12(mail), dir owned by 0:0 mode=0755) Error: search: User lookup failed: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. Even after setting permissions, so that the process can create a maildir for "nobody" in the /var/mail location, it fails to "setresgid" to the particular user to be scanned. It can´t work because it is not possible to gain other user privileges from another user. # 2.2.16: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.7 # OS: Linux Gentoo Base System release 2.2 auth_cache_negative_ttl = xx mins auth_cache_size = xx M auth_cache_ttl = xx mins auth_mechanisms = xx xx auth_worker_max_count = xx base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ default_process_limit = xx dict { expire = sqlite:/xx } doveadm_worker_count = 1 first_valid_gid = xx first_valid_uid = xx login_greeting = xx.xx mail_location = maildir:/xx/xx/%u mail_privileged_group = xx managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate passdb { args = scheme=SHA512 /xx/xx/xx.xx driver = passwd-file } plugin { expire = xx expire2 = xx expire_dict = proxy::expire sieve = ~/.xx.xx sieve_dir = ~/.xx } protocols = imap sieve service auth { unix_listener auth-client { group = xx mode = 0660 } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = xx mode = 0660 } } service dict { unix_listener dict { mode = 0666 } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } process_limit = 6 service_count = 1 } ssl_cert = </xx/xx/xx/xx.xx.xx ssl_key = </xx/xx/xx/xx.xx.xx ssl_parameters_regenerate = xx days userdb { driver = passwd } protocol lda { mail_plugins = sieve expire } protocol imap { imap_idle_notify_interval = xx mins mail_max_userip_connections = xx mail_plugins = expire } Regards Sebastian Kricner -- http://tuxwave.net -- the difference to think makes it real!

Hi, in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf I have restricted IMAP to localhost only: service imap-login { inet_listener imap { address = 127.0.0.1 #port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { #port = 993 #ssl = yes } } However, /lib/systemd/system/dovecot.socket make it listen on 0.0.0.0:143 and [::]:143 causing the service being available to the public which it should not. - IMHO this is a security issue. PS: When starting dovecot I got: Jul 6 22:52:14 srv1 dovecot[19921]: … [View More]

ESEARCH multiple folders
by Peter Chiochetti 08 Jul '15

08 Jul '15

FTS-Solr is blazingly fast; yet searching e.g. an archive with subfolders still is slow; I learned, that this is a feature/bug of the imap protocol. So I'd like to ask: Does or will dovecot support the "IMAP4 Multimailbox SEARCH Extension" specified in RFC 7377? -- Kind regards Peter

Scalability with high density servers and proxies, TCP port limits
by Christian Balzer 08 Jul '15

08 Jul '15

Hello, first post in 3 years, kinda shows how painless Dovecot is. ^o^ Also this isn't really a dovecot issue, alas it's involved and since there are some large scale implementations of it I hope somebody here has some insights I might have missed. Currently we're running this setup: 1. LVS (DR mode) in a HA configuration (2 node cluster) 2. Dovecot in proxy mode on a 2 node cluster 3. Dovecot on actual mailbox servers (dual node DRBD clusters) There are about 500k users, but most of them … [View More]use POP3, so there are usually less than 6k IMAP sesions at any given time. This is about to change, I'm looking at potentially millions of users who will have all semi-permanent IMAP sessions. We already have a pure SSD based mailbox cluster and based on the experiences with that another one is on order that will be able to easily handle about 500k users with regards to IOPS and other needs. However there's the issue of having all these concurrent IMAP sessions. Namely, running out of ephemeral ports. Lets assume 2 million users and 50k ports per IP and revisit the setup above. 1. LVS should have no problem, from experience and tests I expect a well tuned and spec'ed machine to handle millions of connections. This is in DR mode, in NAT mode I assume things would run into a wall a lot quicker. But even if LVS should run out of steam, there's a wide selection of high capacity load balancers available. 2. Here is where the fun starts. Each IMAP session that gets proxied to the real mailbox server needs a port for the outgoing connection. So to support 2 million sessions we need 40 IP addresses here. Ouch. And from a brief test having multiple IP addresses per server won't help either (Dovecot unsurprisingly picks the main IP when establishing a proxy session to the real mailbox), at least not with just one default GW. 3. All of this gets repeated on the actual mailbox servers, by either having a lot of low density servers or (preferably) high density servers with multiple IP addresses. Am I on track so far or missing something obvious? How many concurrent connections do you (hello Timo) think dovecot in proxy mode can handle? High performance mode of course in this case. I'm interested in internal limitations, assume that CPU and RAM are amply supplied. Any and all feedback is appreciated.

HELP: wrinting dovecot-sql.conf to authenticate to an existing database
by Filippo Zeus 08 Jul '15

hi all, can anyone help me with dovecot-sql.conf please ? I'm not a mysql expert and I'am trying to authenticate dovecot2 to an existing database. I have a database "egroupware" with table "egw_accounts". The field "account_lid" is the full email address and "account_pwd" is the password in Blowfish format.

Hi, I have Dovecot 2.1 deployed running about 65k mailboxes. We need to create a specific folder for all users with specific permissions. I mean, the user could not delete or rename the folder. To create the folder automatically I have used the autocreate, but is there any way to set specific permissions on those folders? My best regards.

Large jumps in dovecot-uidlist
by Mark 07 Jul '15

07 Jul '15

Since upgrading to Debian Wheezy I have been observing large jumps in the value stored in dovecot-uidlist. The effect of these jumps is to confuse some mail clients (Thunderbird, Opera Mail) causing them not to display messages from a (random?) point in time onwards in the affected folder. I have been unable to determine the root cause of these jumps. What I do know: 1. I never observed the problem while running Debian Squeeze. 2. The only way I have found to fix the issue is to remove all … [View More]the dovecot* files from the affected folder and restart dovecot. I have tried removing various subsets of the dovecot* files but haven't yet found a subset that works. 3. I first tried upgrading from Squeeze to Wheezy within a few weeks of the Wheezy release. At that point the problem occurred so frequently that I couldn't sync my mail client with my mail box. Multiple folders exhibited this problem and while I was fixing them the problem appeared in other folders. I was unable to reach a point where the system was stable so I reverted back to Squeeze. 4. Some time later (I think a year but I am not sure) I tried the upgrade to Wheezy again. This time the system was stable. After a few days I noticed that the problem was still occurring but less frequently. Since then I have been fixing the problem as I notice it and experimenting with various settings (mainly locking related) without success. I now have a cron job that looks for problematic folders and fixes them when found. 5. I have updated Dovecot packages to those from Jessie via wheezy-backports and the problem still occurs. 6. Dovecot is installed along with postfix, amavisd-new, clamav-daemon, procmail and fetchmail. 7. The mail server is running on a eSATA SheevaPlug that boots of an external USB drive. All user home dirs (and associated mailboxes) are located on a LUKS/ext3 encrypted partition. 8. The output of dovecot -n may be found at the end of this mail. 9. Uid values for the three most recent instances of this problem are: 3801596527, 3371927249, 3443181615 10. Some folders seem more susceptible to this problem but I have not been able to identify any common factors/triggers. 11. The problem occurs - on average - once a day. I am happy to provide any further information, configure any debug logging and/or test suggested configuration settings that may help track down the root cause of this problem. Any help gratefully appreciated.

Each user has a unique UID but they all have 1 GID (800) My MTA is sendmail I am using dovecot-lmtp for local delivery Mailbox format is mbox Configured managesieve plugin to listen on 4190. (not sure if this is even related but it might) The problem I see is that lmtp(user1) tries to access the home directory /home/user2 and I cannot figure out the reason why. This only happens when sending mails to multiple recipients. I see the that lmtp complains that it doesn't have execute permissions. But I don't want to place execute permissions for others on the entire /home/* dir structure. Also, 700 are the default creation permissions. So new users would have to be chmod'ed manually. (unless there is a setting in dovecot) I used "mailx" to send a test email to multiple recipients `echo "test message" | mailx -s "subject" -r vader at dhcp90.##### han.solo at dhcp90.##### vader at dhcp90.##### tester at dhcp90.#####` The only one who actually receives the message is han.solo at dhcp90.##### and The same happens with aliases in /etc/aliases. `echo "group test" | mailx -s "subject" -r vader at dhcp90.##### grouplist at dhcp90.#####` "grouplist" is defined in /etc/aliases and contains the same users as in the log Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

hi centos 6 with qmail toaster and dovecot 2.2.7 for pop3 and imap i have a strange issue which happens on all 4 of my servers for POP3 users -- on any random day ie once in a while users spread across multiple domains will face a problem of outlook re-downloading ALL the emails in the inbox -- not just a few duplicate emails but the entire inbox.

Dovecot auth username mapping
by Laz C. Peterson 02 Jul '15

02 Jul '15

I have an interesting case here … Virtual mailboxes, domain/username/aliases stored in MySQL, authentication done using PAM.

All of this works just fine. But what I want to do is allow the users to log in using their email address and not … [View More]

Hi all, Dovecot 2.2.10 CentOS 6 64 bit. We are having terrible synchronization issues with Outlook 2013 (all updates) on Windows 7 SP1 and 8.1 hosts (all updates). Scenario: 1. Emails were sent since user closed Outlook 2. Next day: start computer, open outlook 3.
