EXT4/LVM recommendations for 3TB of mdbox ?
by Nicolas C. 25 Jun '15

25 Jun '15

Hello, Do you have recommendations on EXT4 and LVM options for a 3TB file-system for mdbox? We currently use the mbox format on a XFS with poor performances since the update in v2.1 (Debian). We will switch to EXT4 to have the possibility of shrinking the file-system if needed (which is not possible with XFS), we currently have LVM partitions but with mdbox we will use LVM snapshots to backup the server in a consistent state. So, - any particular options to use with mkfs.ext4 for the creation of the FS ? - do you recommend a «thin» logical volume ? Our storage (IBM Storwize v7000) already have thin provisioning capabilities. The server will be a VMware virtual machine running Debian with RDM LUNs of 500GB. Data blocks will be automatically spread across several RAID disk (SSD, SAS, SATA) by the v7000. The «mdbox_rotate_size» will be configured around 10MB. Thanks, Nicolas C.

why would replicated to server ask for extra fs permissions?
by lejeczek 24 Jun '15

24 Jun '15

I think I'm near getting a simple replication, but on server which is still "empty" I get: Initialization failed: Namespace '': mkdir(/var/spool/mail/ccnr.biotechnology/nr412/Maildir) failed: Permission denied (euid=1187(nr412) egid=513(Domain Users) missing +w perm: /var/spool/mail, we're not in group 12(mail), dir owned by 0:12 mode=0775 but repl from server runs just fine and their configs are virtually identical. What I missed? many thanks

is it safe to have two backed used for the same user?
by lejeczek 24 Jun '15

24 Jun '15

hi everybody I wonder if it is safe (and wise) to have two passw-user databases for the same one user. I'm thinking, mail to me via pam mail to me(a)this.domain via ldap whole Maildir would be essentially the same one storage target, I see permissions have to be mangled, available to write for both vmail and actual uid. what do you think? Is it how it's done? regards

Quota question
by Ralf Hildebrandt 24 Jun '15

24 Jun '15

http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration says: concat('*:bytes=', quota_limit_bytes) AS quota_rule and concat('*:bytes=', quota_limit_bytes) AS userdb_quota_rule but a generic quota_rule on the same page says: plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=1G quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M } Are "bytes=" and "storage=" equivalent? http://wiki2.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/ExtraFields also shows "storage=": user_query = SELECT home, uid, gid, \ '*:storage=100M' as quota_rule, mail_plugins, \ 'gz' as `plugin/zlib_save` FROM users WHERE userid = '%u' -- [*] sys4 AG http://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Franziskanerstraße 15, 81669 München Sitz der Gesellschaft: München, Amtsgericht München: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Marc Schiffbauer Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Florian Kirstein

Assert test not compatible with s390(x) and ppc64 architectures
by Michal Hlavinka 23 Jun '15

23 Jun '15

Hi, we have found that assert test fails on some architectures: test-net.c:59: Assert failed: net_addr2ip("127.0.0.1", &ip) == 0 && ip.family == AF_INET && ip.u.ip4.s_addr == (127 | (1 << 24)) It seems as bug in test suit as test is expecting IPv4 address in LE format (0x0100007f), but it gets address in BE format(0x7f000001). Patch in attachment should fix this issue. Regards Michal Hlavinka

passdb pam and args/format
by lejeczek 23 Jun '15

23 Jun '15

I wonder if queries to/via pam are formatable? What I'm thinking I'd like to try is to use pam with users(a)local.domain. And I guess I'd have to loose domain part somehow. many thanks

a temporary failure
by lejeczek 23 Jun '15

23 Jun '15

dear all I have a postfix relaying to dovecot's lda but "strangely" it does not work, I mean I imaging it's me doing something wrong, yet I cannot figure out what. postfix logs: to=<me(a)my.domain>,orig_to=<root@localhost>, relay=dovecot, delay=39296, delays=39294/2.2/0/0.27, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure) and dovecot logs no error, despite having debug to yes in couple of places, it shows: auth: Debug: master in: USER 1 me(a)my.domain service=lda auth-worker(25343): Debug: passwd(me(a)my.domain): lookup auth-worker(25343): passwd(me(a)my.domain): unknown user auth: Debug: ldap(me(a)my.domain): user search: base=ou=People,dc=my,dc=domain scope=subtree filter=(&(objectClass=person)(uid=me)) fields= auth: Debug: ldap(me(a)my.domain): result: objectClass=top,top,top,top, ... here goes the whole lot of ldap atrribs, and at the end: unused. For passdb & userdb in the configs I only configure ldap backed, nothing else. Ldap works, I can query it without failling. I believe it's very simple set up but I must be wrong somewhere. pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%n)) pass_attrs = uid=user=%n,userPassword=password user_attrs = =home=/var/spool/mail/%d/%n,=mail=maildir:/var/spool/mail/%d/%n/Maildir:INDEX=/var/spool/mail/%d/%n:CONTROL=/var/spool/mail/%d/%n user_filter = (&(objectClass=person)(uid=%n)) Any suggestions very appreciated. thanks

Proxy to more Servers
by Luca Bertoncello 23 Jun '15

23 Jun '15

Hi list! Finally I got the LDAP-Authentication work (it was a problem of the OU-Path... :( ). Now I can authenticate the user against the AD and forwarding the IMAP-Connection to the Exchange Server. Wow! My next problem: we have TWO ADs and TWO Exchange-Servers. The first AD has the users for the first Exchange, and the second AD for the second Exchange. I defined two files so: auth-ldap-OLDAD.conf.ext: passdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-OLDAD.conf.ext } userdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-OLDAD.conf.ext default_fields = imapc_user=%u imapc_password=%w imapc_ssl=imaps imapc_host=sphinx.company.local imapc_port=993 driver=imap uid=imapproxy gid=imapproxy home=/home/imapproxy } auth-ldap-NEWAD.conf.ext: passdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-NEWAD.conf.ext } userdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-NEWAD.conf.ext default_fields = imapc_user=%u imapc_password=%w imapc_ssl=imaps imapc_host=exchange01.ad.company.org imapc_port=993 driver=imap uid=imapproxy gid=imapproxy home=/home/imapproxy } Well, the authentication works as expected, but when a user of the second AD/Exchanges tries to log in, after a SUCCESSFULLY authentication can't speak with the new Exchange server... :( In the log of Dovecot I see: Jun 23 15:07:58 proxy01 dovecot: imap(chorris): Error: User initialization failed: Namespace '': Mailbox list driver imapc: missing imapc_host Jun 23 15:07:58 proxy01 dovecot: imap(chorris): Error: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information. Could someone explain me, why the configuration for imapc_host in the second file are ignored? Thanks Luca Bertoncello (lucabert(a)lucabert.de)

allowing shell users to change passwords
by dave＠661.org 23 Jun '15

23 Jun '15

Does anyone else here have a need to allow shell users to change their imap/pop3 passwords? I came up with a little thing that works similarly to regular passwd(1), dovepasswd, which can be found at https://github.com/DavidGriffith/dovepasswd. It does the job for me and I'd love for other people to take a look and give me some feedback. -- David Griffith dave(a)661.org A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?

Problem with LDAP... again...

LDAP authentication

This is my configuration: hosts = my.server.local auth_bind = yes ldap_version = 3 base = CN=Person,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=company,DC=local scope = subtree user_attrs = \ =home=/home/imapproxy/%u, \ =mail=maildir:/home/imapproxy/%u pass_attrs = uid=%u, userPassword=%w pass_filter = (&(objectClass=user)(sAMAccountName=%u)) auth_bind_userdn = company\%u If I try to login on the LDAP-Server using ldapsearch it works, but with Dovecot not...

To say that disabling the use of index files solved your problems is akin to saying amputating your foot solved your bunion problems. Ordinarily, indices ought to be a benefit -- it will help with I/O bottlenecks when mailboxes or number of users get huge. I can't tell from your list of problems whether they are the result of one or many causes, but fixing the index consistency problem would go a long way toward clearing up most of your problems. If INDEX=MEMORY is working for you and you don't see performance degradation, there's no harm in using it, but in my opinion, it may benefit you in the future to get to the bottom of the indexing problem rather than to lop it off altogether. > I am curious if setting INDEX=MEMORY "disables the index completely" as > per http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation: "If you really want to, you > can also disable the index files completely by appending > :INDEX=MEMORY." Or if there are index files in memory as one might > assume taking the directive literally, and if so, if these are > functionally equivalent to, say, Courier IMAP's caching model. The latter I believe. The important words in the wiki sentence is "index files", not "indexing". Dovecot is still indexing, exept that it builds it from scratch each and every time a worker process accesses a mailbox, so incurs a fixed overhead that cannot be used for the next session.

Dovecot as Proxy for __MORE__ Exchange-Servers
by Luca Bertoncello 22 Jun '15

22 Jun '15

Hi list! I'm trying to configure Dovecot 2.2.18 to act as proxy. Dovecot has to authentificate the users against an LDAP-Server (AD) and then act as IMAP-Proxy to an Exchange Server. Now the problem is, that we have TWO Exchange servers (and two ADs, too). How can I say to Dovecot that it has to search for the user in the first AD (and if found proxy to the first Exchange server) and if the user was not found, to search in the second AD (and if found proxy to the second Exchange server)? Thanks a lot Luca Bertoncello (lucabert(a)lucabert.de)

Quota SQL separate queries?
by Akos Vandra 22 Jun '15

22 Jun '15

Hello, We are trying to enforce per-domain quotas. Currently my quota-sql.conf looks like this: connect = host=/var/run/postgresql dbname=mail user=mailreader map { pattern = priv/quota/storage table = quota username_field = username value_field = bytes } map { pattern = priv/quota/messages table = quota username_field = username value_field = messages } With quota = dict:Domain:%d:proxy::sqlquota This works with a trigger by updating and , however I am unable to show the administrators a list of which of their users are using the most space. That is to be purely informative, and is not to be enforced. I would appreciate if there was a documented way to specify exact SQL queries to run for inserting, updating and selecting from the quota storage, something like this: -- CREATE VIEW quota_domain AS SELECT domain, sum(bytes), sum(messages) FROM quotas GROUP BY domain INSERT/UPDATE INTO quotas(username, domain, bytes, messages) SELECT bytes, messages from quota_domain WHERE domain = %d Is there such a possibility? If not, can you suggest a workaround to have a list of per-user quota usages as well as enforced per-domain quotas? Thanks, Akos Vandra

Mailbox aliases problem
by azurIt 22 Jun '15

22 Jun '15

Hi, i'm trying to implement malbox aliases but it's not fully working as i expected. This is my configuration: mail_plugins = acl mailbox_alias plugin { mailbox_alias_old = INBOX/Odoslane mailbox_alias_new = INBOX/SentTest } That 'INBOX/' must be there because of this (we were moving from Courier IMAP): namespace inbox { type = private prefix = INBOX/ separator = / inbox = yes list = yes } All of this is working fine, if i create folder SentTest, the link to folder Odoslane is correctly created on filesystem. The problem is that folder SentTest is invisible even after creation: 1 CREATE "INBOX/SentTest" 1 OK Create completed. 2 LIST "" "*" <all folders except SentTest are listed> 2 OK List completed. 3 LIST "INBOX/SentTest" "*" 3 OK List completed. 4 LIST "INBOX/Odoslane" "*" 4 LIST (\HasNoChildren \Sent) "/" INBOX/Odoslane 4 OK List completed. 5 CREATE "INBOX/SentTest" 5 NO [ALREADYEXISTS] Mailbox already exists 6 DELETE "INBOX/SentTest" 6 OK Delete completed. None of the e-mail clients i tried can see the folder. I'm using Dovecot 2.2.13 from Debian Wheezy (wheezy-backports). Any hints? azur

setting quota through IMAP
by Daniel Tröder 22 Jun '15

22 Jun '15

I'd like to set the quota of a user through the IMAP protocol. I use Pythons imaplib: imap.setquota("test1m(a)uni.dtr", "(storage 8192)") ('NO', ['Quota can be changed only by admin.']) So... which user is the "admin" user in a virtual user setting (passwd: PAM, userdb: LDAP)? Greetings Daniel

how do I conceptualize system & virtual users?
by lejeczek 22 Jun '15

22 Jun '15

I guess this would be a common case, I am hoping for some final clarification. a few Linux boxes share ldap (multi-master) backend that PAM/SSSD uses to authenticated users, and these LDAPs are also is used by Samba, users start @ uid 1000. Boxes are in the same both DNS and Samba domains. Do I treat these users as system or virtual users from postfix/dovecot perspective? If it can be a matter of choice then which is better/best? many thanks.

Dovecot 2.2.16: disappearing messages, mismatched summaries, duplicated messages, excessive full re-downloads
by David Gessel 20 Jun '15

20 Jun '15

My Dovecot 2.2.16 server is interacting poorly with a variety of mail clients. The symptoms include disappearing messages, mismatched summaries, duplicated messages, and excessive full re-downloads. Dovecot 2.2.16 on FreeBSD 10.1-release r280247M ZFS is interacting suboptimally with various email clients. Output of "dovecot -n" further down. *Client Artifacts* Thunderbird 31.6 Win 7 Ultimate SP1: - messages disappear and reappear with checks somewhat randomly. - Sometimes full re-download of folders is triggered, also seems random - Copies of messages appear, sometimes multiplying with each mail check up to about 5-8 or so of each message. - The summary information in the list pane doesn't match the message headers in the preview pane - quit and restart always cleans it up. - sometimes changing folders cleans it up, but not always - sometimes instigating a manual mail check cleans it up but not always Mulberry 4.08 Win 7 Ultimate SP1: - messages disappear and reappear - full re-scans of entire folders triggered occasionally when changing folders, but not always - message list filled with semi-blank entries (message number, status flags, and dates are listed, but no sender, subject, or body is available). The time stamps do not appear to be correct "date received". - message list fills with duplicates - the last of the set of duplicates, which are not necessarily sequentially numbered, has load-able body text and headers, but the others do not. There may be 3-5 copies, only one of which is the real message. The inbox is sequentially numbered by "message number" (the "natural order of the mailbox") and duplicates have unique numbers. - If there's a deleted message left, the "expunge" button is enabled and this also restores normal mailbox view. - disconnecting and reconnecting usually fixes the issues - changing mailboxes while connected sometimes fixes the issues. Claws 3.10.1 Win 7 Ultimate SP1 - initial load is correct, but once claws tries to sync mail, it locks up and never releases (even after days). Claws is weird like that. Sylpheed 3.4.2 Win 7 Ultimate SP1 - mail list always looks fine, but sometimes clicking a message shows "can't display" in the preview pane - "get messages" restores access to messages. Thunderbird 31.5 Linux Mint 17 Qaina 3.13.0-24-generic - messages disappear and reappear with checks somewhat randomly. - Sometimes full redownload of folders is triggered, also seems random - Copies of messages appear, sometimes multiplying with each mail check - The summary information in the list pane doesn't match the message headers in the preview pane - wrong message total (every other client agrees on 2576 but TB-linux says 3242, perhaps counting dups) Claws 3.9.3 Linux Mint 17 Qaina 3.13.0-24-generic - Occasionally shows "this message can't be displayed" - executing a "get mail" fixes the error K-9 5.004 Android 4.3 - messages appear and then disappear on the next check - message body is occasionally blank (only subject and arrival time appear, no body preview line, clicking on the message shows "no text" *Server artifacts:* dovecot.log shows runs of this error: Apr 15 09:02:37 imap(user(a)domain.com): Warning: Maildir /mail/domain.com/user//.Sent: Expunged message reappeared, giving a new UID (old uid=306286, file=1429102024.M826331P1156.host,S=1678,W=1724:2,S) or this error: Apr 15 10:04:00 indexer-worker(user(a)domain.com): Warning: Maildir /mail/domain.com/user//.Sent: Expunged message reappeared, giving a new UID (old uid=306803, file=1428785463.M645546P27215.host,S=5389,W=5442:2,S) # grep -c "Expunged message reappeared" dovecot.log.0 8981 The first entry in dovecot.log.0 is at Apr 15 10:00:12, and the last entry at Apr 15 12:00:13; Dovecot is logging 4,490 expunged message reappeared messages per hour.

I tried removing most of my customizations one by one and testing, but the problem has not been improved. I strongly suspect that the index files are getting thrashed or otherwise abused. I have no idea what's triggering whatever event is resulting in the thousands of expunged messages reappearing, but the client artifacts suggest a mismatch between cache or index files and files on disk: UID, keywords, and set date appear as if from cache but the body of the message does not. It seems as if the UID doesn't match a message on disk any more, which soon gets automatically fixed and everything syncs again until something re-triggers - a false expunge perhaps? Or perhaps the transaction log is suffering some sort of ongoing abuse? *dovecot -n* # dovecot -n # 2.2.16: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.7 # OS: FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE

I think reason was a damaged Index in ~username/mail/.imap/INBOX/ I removed this folder and immediately errors are gone and Mailbox was readable again. Never noticed this kind of errors for years on 2.1.17, maybe this helps to find a Bug in Code. Thanks, Hajo

hi everybody I've barely started reading on dsync and I wonder.. would you know if it is possible to sync/replicate only specific domain(users)? or it's always the whole lot? many thanks P.

Dovecot 2.1.9 shared folder deletion causes fault
by JT 19 Jun '15

19 Jun '15

Hey all, I'm getting a fault in dovecot (see below) using shared folders. I have a mailbox that receives new mail (Account X/INBOX). Another account (Account A) has access to the other account (Account X/INBOX) with ACL below. The ACL directory (.DEFAULT) contains: user=AccountA lrwst I removed a test email from Account A/INBOX, which is supposed to remove the email from Account X/INBOX. A fault occurs whenever my client (Thunderbird) attempts to connect and complete the deletion. Other actions complete successfully. It only appears to happen when using Thunderbird. Mac Mail does not cause the fault. I'm not getting a core dump so all I have is what the log outputs. I can reproduce this regularly so let me know if you need any additional information.

maildir, how to always add size tags to filename (,S=).
by Sergei Franco 19 Jun '15

19 Jun '15

Hi There, I have thoroughly read through documentation and wiki and I simply cannot find how to force dovecot to always add the size tag to the filename when using maildir format. We are using dovecot 2.2.9 (whatever comes from ubuntu 14.04 LTS). We are using dovecot in conjunction with exim with maidirsize file enabled and maildir quotas. For example exim has following configuration: maildir_tag = ,S=$message_size Which adds the size to the filename of the message. This has enormous (orders of magnitude) performance benefit as to calculate quota one does not need to stat every single file (only getents for each directory). I have wrote a script that adds the size tag retrospectively to files it didn't had it, and rebuild the dovecot index/cache if changes where made. This worked fine. Behaviour of dovecot is very peculiar: it generally adds the ,S= tag (along with ,W= tag) but occasionally it does not (I wander if it depends on the IMAP client). Is there anyway to force dovecot to add size tag to the files (like with exim example above)? Thank you very much. Sergei.

Best practices for mailbox network file storage?
by Andy Csillag 18 Jun '15

18 Jun '15

Is there a current best practice for a shared filesystem backend for mailboxes (in my case, all virtual accounts)? NFS 3/4, GFS2, GlusterFS, other? In the case of the latter ones, is the use of Director necessary? Any specific anti-recommendations? Also, if it matters, I *think* I want to use BackBlaze racks for storage. Also, I've seen recommendations for the filesystem underneath like XFS or ext4 or whatever. Is there a best practice? Thanks, Drew

LMTP with Postfix Problem
by Steve Matzura 18 Jun '15

18 Jun '15

Here's a maillog entry that's one of many I receive when I try sending a test message to my system. The recipient is a virtual user in /etc/virtual. The way I'm expecting it to work is that my message from me to this Postfix virtual user will be sent back to me. Every time the message delivery is attempted, Dovecot says the LMTP directory doesn't exist. I thought it was created automatically as messages arrive. Jun 18 01:48:27 <machine-name> postfix/lmtp[30644]: 4CA5B8CB6: to=<postmaster@<my-domain>>, orig_to=<postmaster>, relay=none, delay=0.02, delays=0.02/0/0/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to <my-FQDN>[private/dovecot-lmtp]: No such file or directory)

Pigeonhole vacation from alias address
by Dino Blazeka 18 Jun '15

18 Jun '15

Hi everyone. I've set up my instance not to check recipient address with sieve_vacation_dont_check_recipient=yes to enable users to set up their vacation script without listing addresses (there are to many). Only problem remaining is that when they receive an e-mail sent to their alias, the vacation response comes from their original mail address. Is there a setting or workaround that would enable vacation extension to send response with from field set to whichever address the original message was addressed to. Thank you in advance, Dino P. S. This is my first message to the list so I apologize in advance if I have broken any rules. It was not done intentionally

privilege of process executed by extprograms plugin
by Takahiro Yakoh 18 Jun '15

18 Jun '15

Hi, I'm just a beginner of extprograms plugin of sieve. When I execute a process via execute or pipe command, the process start with "root" privilege. Why? I believe the process must be executed with recipient privilege. Give me some checkpoints, or hints, please. My setup is as follows: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS 64bit + dovecot-core, dovecot-sieve plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve sieve_execute_bin_dir = /some/where sieve_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.execute +vnd.dovecot.pipe sieve_pipe_bin_dir = /some/where sieve_plugins = sieve_extprograms } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " sieve" postmaster_address = postmaster(a)some.where } Yakoh

bug in indexer/indexer-worker
by Infoomatic 18 Jun '15

18 Jun '15

Hi, I have already mentioned this in http://www.dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2014-November/098592.html I could reproduce the errors above in a self-compiled v2.2.18 and the prebuilt packages from xi.rename-it.nl (in addition to version 2.2.15 mentioned in the link) The problem occurs when enabling fts_tika in the plugins (tried tika 1.6, 1.7 and 1.8). I tried to move a folder of my mailbox with about 2000 mails to my server (no users, modern hardware). At some point I get an error and from this time on dovecot keeps repeating the last lines with every mail that comes in ... see [1] I then get kernel syslog messages like in [2]. when I try to index all users (had another testuser) mailboxes with "doveadm index" I get the errors of [3]. The mailfolder does contain mails with attachments of all sorts, videos, office documents etc. When disabling fts_tika it works. dovecot -n output is [4] Could someone of the devs please have a look? best regards, infoomatic [1] Then comes the panic which produces loads of errormessages below the "Raw backtrace" part: Jun 16 10:11:08 testhost dovecot: indexer-worker(user1): Warning: I/O leak:

FTS lucene and english + german mails
by Felix Zielcke 17 Jun '15

17 Jun '15

Hi, I'm currently looking over the FTS pages to enable it in my dovecot. But I'm unsure what the best settings of the lucene plugin are, if you receive german and english mails. Wiki says: textcat_conf=<path> textcat_dir=<path>: If specified, enable guessing the stemming language for emails and search keywords. This is a little bit problematic in practice, since indexing and searching languages may differ and may not find even exact words because they stem differently. On Debian libstemmer is included in the debian-lucene package. So what settings are the best to have not the problem that exact words can't be found?

SOLR 5
by Robert Gierzinger 17 Jun '15

17 Jun '15

Hello, I just wanted to give SOLR 5 a try, however there probably have changed quite some bits in the config files, did not even manage to create a core with various solrconfig.xml and schema.xml files, but I am absolutely no expert in solr. Has anybody given it a try or are there some tips on how to get it running? regards, Robert

dsync userdb and required fields?
by lejeczek 17 Jun '15

17 Jun '15

hi, I'm fiddling with dsync and get these in the logs: auth: Error: password(ps655@): Password data is not valid for scheme SSHA: Input isn't valid base64 encoded data .. auth: Error: ldap(ns580(a),172.25.12.215): ldap_search(base=ou=,ou=mail,dc=virtual,dc=hosting filter=(&(objectclass=person) .... This is on a dovecot that I'd call second, to which I'd like to replicate, first dovecot which is already populated with users, etc. does not show these errors. and I also have seen complains about possixAccunt I think. Do these mean that there is a base minimum required from dovecot/dsync in order to deem/find a user as a valid user? Also I can tell that those users do belong to different domain (not even this RDN) than the one in which the second dovecot is trying to look. These fields/attributes are nowhere defined/mentioned in my configs thus I wonder. many thanks

Mail to nowhere
by Steve Matzura 17 Jun '15

17 Jun '15

The next phase of my testing procedure involves the simple act of delivering mail to my test box. When I send a message to either a valid or relayed user at my remote machine's address, it never gets there. I know this virtually for sure because I'm tailing /var/log/maillog and nothing new has been added for the past hour. I'm thinking eventually my ISP will send the message back to me as undeliverable, and in that bounced message there may be some information about why it was undeliverable, but maybe someone has a thought as to why I'm not even seeing anything attempt to connect?

A 4xx indicates a transient error (i.e., within configured limits, delivery retries will be attempted), 5xx is permanent (immediate reject, no retries), otherwise the specific number isn't all that telling. >From everything you've indicated, this is an MTA issue.

replication of a big mailbox
by Tim Kuijsten 16 Jun '15

16 Jun '15

I'm running dovecots replicator successfully on 33 mailboxes. There is only one mailbox (the biggest one, 167000 mails) that is not replicating successfully. After 10 minutes the "source" starts logging these messages: dovecot: dsync-local(foo(a)example.com): Error: dsync(imap.netsend.nl): I/O has stalled, no activity for 600 seconds dovecot: dsync-local(foo(a)example.com): Error: Timeout during state=sync_mails (send=mail_requests recv=changes) dovecot: dsync-local(foo(a)example.com): Error: Remote command process isn't dying, killing it dovecot: dsync-local(foo(a)example.com): Error: kill(17459, SIGKILL) failed: Operation not permitted dovecot: doveadm: Error: Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal. dovecot: doveadm: Error: dsync-remote(foo(a)example.com): Error: Couldn't lock //.dovecot-sync.lock: Timed out after 30 seconds dovecot: doveadm: Error: Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal. dovecot: doveadm: Error: dsync-remote(foo(a)example.com): Error: Couldn't lock //.dovecot-sync.lock: Timed out after 30 seconds The 30 seconds timeout keeps repeating, while the doveadm process on the destination keeps on going for hours and hours. Destination imap.netsend.nl is creating a lot of hardlinks (at least one hardlink per message) in .temp.... files. This takes about 1,5 hour, after that the number of hardlinks decline again. But it looks like the connection with source is already lost. I've patched the source to overcome the timeout by changing it from 10 minutes to 3 hours[1] but now I'm running into a memory error: dovecot: dsync-local(foo(a)example.com): Error: dsync(imap.netsend.nl): I/O has stalled, no activity for 10800 seconds dovecot: dsync-local(foo(a)example.com): Error: Timeout during state=sync_mails (send=done recv=mails) dovecot: dsync-local(foo(a)example.com): Error: mremap_anon(211677184) failed: Cannot allocate memory The allocate memory error shows up every 10 seconds. Next I'll try to look into the memory allocation code, but maybe someone already has a better idea?

Problem logging in during testing
by Steve Matzura 16 Jun '15

16 Jun '15

Instructions at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/BasicConfiguration say the next thing to test after getting IMAP and Telnet working is to create a dummy user file with the following command: echo "$USER:{PLAIN}password:$UID:$GID::$HOME" > users And place it in /etc/dovecot and protect it appropriately. It was also edited to change the plain-text password from `password' to what it really is. The next section describes changes to 10-auth.conf and other things: If you used the example configuration files, switch to passwd-file by modifying conf.d/10-auth.conf: # Add '#' to comment out the system user login for now: #!include auth-system.conf.ext # Remove '#' to use passwd-file: !include auth-passwdfile.conf.ext In conf.d/auth-passwdfile.conf.ext you should have: passdb { driver = passwd-file args = scheme=CRYPT username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users } userdb { driver = passwd-file args = username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users } Verify with doveconf -n passdb userdb that the output looks like above (and there are no other passdbs or userdbs). All done successfully. Now, when I telnet 127.0.0.1 143 and attempt to log in with the string: a login <any username> <any password> whether it's one in my users file or not, I get: a NO [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Authentication failed.

What became of dovecot.passwd?
by Steve Matzura 15 Jun '15

15 Jun '15

Since I've decided to go to version 2, which is a lot more difficult to set up because I have to look in a lot more places than I did with version 1.0.15, what do I do with the old dovecot/passwd or its contents? I see no references to it in any of the stuff in conf.d or doc/dovecot/wiki. As always, thanks in advance.
