[Dovecot] v2.0.beta1
by Pascal Volk 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi Timo, the imap_client_workarounds are not always parsed. There was on situation, in which cmd->client->set->parsed_workarounds was set to WORKAROUND_TB_EXTRA_MAILBOX_SEP. Sorry, I can't remember what I have done. But when I try to delete a mailbox with Thunderbird imap_client_workarounds are not parsed: (gdb) print cmd->client->set->imap_client_workarounds $7 = 0x1422de0 "tb-extra-mailbox-sep" (gdb) print cmd->client->set->parsed_workarounds $8 = 0 And therefor the command 'x delete box_with_trailing_slash/' fails.

[Dovecot] CRAM-MD5 in Python
by Andre 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi to all! I’m writing a python module (python+sqlalchemy) to manage user and domain configuration on my system (I hope to get a CLI tool, a Web app and even a native Mac app, via PyObjc, from my lib). I’m implementing password crypto, but I have some problem in generating CRAM-MD5 password, dovecot style. I’ve found an old discussion on this mailing list and a piece of Perl that works, but I need to implement it in Python; I’ve even read code (hmac-md5.c), but before start hard coding (hard from my POV at least, since I’ve never worked with crypto algorithms in a deep way), is there anyone that have had solved the problem or has any idea on how to approach it? TIA Andre

Hi All, I'm new to the list and have a quota question.

[Dovecot] S=xxx missing in new messages
by Andre 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi to all! I’m setting up dovecot 1.2.8 on my system to substitute an older IMAP server and I’m testing all features of Dovecot. Yesterday I was testing support for zlib, for compressed messages, to set up a new namespace for old mails and I read that it is safe to compress only mails that have the field “S=XXX” in their name (XXX being the original size of message) and to leave uncompressed the ones that don’t have S=XXX in their name. Testing and searching I discovered that only new mail, mail that used to arrive in mailbox via SMTP have S=XXX, mail copied from another mailbox loose S=XXX. Later I’ve found that this not work anymore, even directly delivered mail messages do not have S=XXX anymore. I use dovecot-lda as delivery program and postfix as SMTP server, but I’ve not touched postfix configuration since one month ago. What can it be? How can I have S=XXX again in my messages file name? TIA Andrea

[Dovecot] Kerberos Cross-Real username
by Nikolay Shopik 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi List, Is anyone is running Dovecot with Kerberos and tried to authenticate user from different REALM and have same user principal with default domain. Currently Dovecot only logs user principal w/o REALM. So before I go in production maybe somebody already run into this using Dovecot? If not I just create virtual machines and see how it behaves.

[Dovecot] mail_max_userip_connections
by Richard Stockton 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

What is the appropriate setting for mail_max_userip_connections ? My POP3 connections seem to be mostly 1 at a time, but my IMAP connections are often 3 per user per IP. Is this appropriate? If I change the IMAP setting to mail_max_userip_connections=1 will it break things for the user? I am trying to improve this situation: > ps auxwww | grep "imap " | wc 237 3080 22400 TIA, - Richard

[Dovecot] Dovecot truncating Inboxes?
by Harald Strack 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi, Environment: >10000 Users (LDAP) Solaris 10 / sparc imap: dovecot-1.1.10 (pam-unix, no direct LDAP access) pop: dovecot-1.0.14 on another server (pam-unix, no direct LDAP access) mta: postfix (pam-unix, no direct LDAP access) procmail (pam-unix, no direct LDAP access) Filesystems: Inboxes and IMAP-home are on two different SAM-FS volumes. Problem description: Inboxes of users are disappearing / are truncated. we are using dovecot-1.1.0 since two month as main IMAP server. It replaced our long running but old version of UW-IMAP. Till the last week we had no problems and it worked quite well and the whole mail system worked in this configuration since several years. But since a week we receive more and more complaints regarding truncated/deleted mailboxes. First, we assumed user/client errors, but as such messages arrive more frequently, we did a deep analysis of the issue. The only common component of our mail system (postfix (local), procmail, pop, imap) that all concerned users have accessed, was dovecot-imap v. 1.1.10. We have no locking problems, we use fcntl(), dotlock for all mail components. We tested this with a small perl script and locking works fine (no delivery to a locked mailbox and so on...) Finally, all indications point to a bug in dovecot. Google and searches in this mailing list did not come up with any valuable results. Are there any known bugs / configuration problems concerned to the described problem? I greatly appreciate any help! Thx in advance Harald Strack

[Dovecot] Configure deliver to add ', S=<size>' to maildir message name
by alhashash-lists＠cilantrocafe.net 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi, I want to use the zlib plugin to compress my mail storage. According to the wiki, only messages with size attribute in the message id should by compressed. If I added the size part, dovecot assumes it is a new message. While dovecot undertands the ',S=<size>' attribute (IMAP shows that size), I could not configure deliver to add the size to message name. I'm using dovecot v1.0.13 Regards, M. Alhashash

[Dovecot] Sieve mails with decoded subject
by Johannes Bauer 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Dear all, I accidently posted this message to dovecot-news and want to apologize for any trouble I may have caused. Here it is again to the correct mailing list: Recently I'm getting a ton of porn/viagra/diet/casino spam mails which I tried to filter with sieve: if header :contains "Subject" [ "[SPAM]", "Bett", "Schlafzimmer", "Spielen", "Luder", "abhenmen", "poppen", "Casino", "Bonus", "abnehmen", "Gewinn", "Potenz" ] { addflag "\\seen"; fileinto "Spam"; stop; } Sadly, this didn't work - taking a closer look upon one of the spam mails, it seems the spamming rats have encoded the subject: Subject: =?US-ASCII?B?RW5kbGljaCBtZWhyIGVuZ2FnZW1lbnQgaW0gQmV0dGNoZW4=?= (reads: "Endlich mehr engagement im Bettchen") I'm thinking about filtering all such encoded subjects (as there's no reason to encode them US-ASCII), but suppose it were UTF-8 or something: how can I filter on the actual content, not the encoded subject? Surely someone has solved that problem already? Kind regards, Johannes

[Dovecot] commercial help

Contact info * Author: Timo Sirainen, tss(a)iki.fi <mailto:tss@iki.fi>. * Please use the Dovecot mailing list <http://www.dovecot.org/mailinglists.html> for questions about Dovecot. You don't have to subscribe to it. * Depending on your needs, commercial support may be available. Send a mail if you're interested. according to the above (from the dovecot.org webpage), "commercial support may be available". After spending the better part of today trying unsuccessfully, I am ready to "Send a mail if you're interested". But I do not know WHO to send it to. Likely Timo, but I do not want to be presumptuous. I am on FreeBSD with Dovecot 1.2.4 I need to have both POP3 & IMAP working to replace vm-pop3d (which was POP3 only). Local users are: mbox:/home/%u/mail/:INBOX=/mail/%u with password in /etc/passwd Virtual users (which vm-pop3d handled readily) are mbox:/home/VIRTUAL/%d/%u:INBOX/mail/VIRTUAL/%d/%u with password in /exim/etc/VIRTUAL/%d/passwd It is worth it to me to pay a knowledgeable person to create the correct conf file to make this happen. Who should I contact? Thanks, Jim Pazarena

[Dovecot] User friendly vacation service
by Raymond Lillard 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Dear Dovecot list, I maintain a few small sendmail/dovecot/procmail based mail servers with system users only (no virtual domains or virtual users) on OpenBSD. I have been able to get a vacation system working with both with the native vacation program from OpenBSD and with procmail. I've been looking into dovecot sieve, but it doesn't appear to solve the bigger user complaint which is, they want to be able to control the vacation feature w/o my involvement. What is wanted is a system where the users can send a control mail message to themselves with the reply body in the message or failing that perhaps a secure web page to control the vacation function. Mail administration is NOT a full time job for me. I'm looking for simple, low overhead solutions. Any suggestions? Thanks for your time. Ray

[Dovecot] Doubts about namespace && thunderbird.
by Beto Moreno 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Hi people. I ask this because I'm confuse about the namespace stuff. I setup a server with Centos 5.4(updated)+dovecot 1.0.7+postfix 2.3.3. We use thunderbird 2.0.x as our default email client. I want to use courier-imap inbox layout: Inbox-- sent junk trash draft The inbox as father of the tree, other post say something about a namespace like this: separator = . prefix = Inbox. inbox = yes If I make this, thunderbird go crazy and tell me each time I try to access a user mail that :server respond-->unknown namespace, with this my layout is: Inbox Trash But if I try to access Trash, is went he send me that error and none of my users could access those folders. What is the problem with this? Now if I comment the namespace, my folders goes below the father(Inbox) u could not see the different. Last thing, how can I setup a global layout where each user the first time they log-in thunderbird could make: Trash, Draft, Sent? Thanks!!!

[Dovecot] expire-tool and userdb returned mail location
by Tapio Sokura 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Hello, I'm having problems with expire-tool in Dovecot 1.2.6 not finding the mailboxes. I had mail_location = mbox:/var/spool/dovecotmail/%d/%n/mails:INDEX=/var/spool/dovecotmail/%d/%n/indexes in dovecot.conf, but that doesn't work with expire-tool. So I commented that out from dovecot.conf, all the data is in a database anyway. A userdb lookup returns the following for userid@domain: home = /var/spool/dovecotmail/domain/userid/ mail = mbox:/var/spool/dovecotmail/domain/userid/mails:INDEX=/var/spool/dovecotmail/domain/userid/indexes Now when running expire-tool --test, I get this: Error: Namespace '': Mail storage autodetection failed with home=/var/spool/dovecotmail/domain/userid/ Info: User lookup failed: userid@domain When I run expire-tool under strace, I can see that it is indeed looking for the mails in the typical autodetect locations (Maildir, mail, Mail) under user's home directory. So it appers that expire-tool takes the home directory from userdb, but ignores mail location returned by userdb? Tapio

The whole problem lies in a desire to use these two things in the same time: 1. maildrop filters file for all users messages (to place sent mail right); 2. store / access mails from mailserver, which is also a relayhost. Maybe there are some suggestions in this list on how should I solve the problem?

[Dovecot] outlook 2007 mailbox sort order
by Frank Cusack 12 Dec '09

12 Dec '09

What are people doing to affect the sort order of mailboxes in outlook? Apple Mail and MS Outlook similarly suck in that they do not sort '~' correctly -- mailboxes starting with '~' are first instead of last. At least I think this is the fault of the client, since Mulberry sorts correctly. At least with Apple Mail I can drag and drop mailboxes into any display order I like, so at least after the fact it can be "corrected". I want to provide shared, virtual and lazy_expunge mailboxes. I'd like these to be last in the list of mailboxes. This doesn't seem possible with Outlook unless I prefix the names with 'zz' or similar. yuk. -frank

[Dovecot] v2.0 post-login scripts
by Timo Sirainen 12 Dec '09

12 Dec '09

Post-login scripts work a bit differently in v2.0, because the old way just couldn't work anymore. I suppose at some point I should fork the wiki to v1.x and v2.x and start writing these things there, but for now I'll just write it here: First you'll need to tell imap service that it should connect to postlogin service: service imap { executable = imap imap-postlogin } Then you'll need the imap-postlogin service: # The service name below doesn't actually matter. service imap-postlogin { executable = script rawlog /tmp/test.sh unix_listener imap-postlogin { } } The "script" executable does all the magic. If you want multiple scripts, just make them a chain, like above script first executes rawlog, and rawlog then executes /tmp/test.sh: #!/bin/sh echo "* OK Hello $USER ($IP -> $LOCAL_IP)" export MAIL=maildir:/tmp/test export USERDB_KEYS="$USERDB_KEYS mail" exec $* So it's pretty similar to how it works before, except now you'll also need to update $USERDB_KEYS to contain all environments that you want to pass to imap process.

[Dovecot] shared virtual (plugin) mailboxes?

With the virtual plugin is it possible to create shared virtual mailboxes? It seems to work (I created them under /etc/dovecot/virtual) but I wanted to make sure it is supported. -frank

[Dovecot] id/permissions question
by Kārlis Repsons 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

People, There is an imap client, which runs with user1 uid, but when its accessed to watch a maildir, whose (and its contents) ownership is user1:user1, this error occurs: dovecot: IMAP(user1): fchown(/path/user1/dovecot-uidlist.tmp, -1, 12(mail)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=1000(user1), group based on /path/user1) dovecot.conf contains this line: mail_privileged_group = mail authentication happens through passwd-file, where for user1 its uid and gid are specified as in /etc/passwd and /etc/group. So how should dovecot be told to use user1 group instead of mail group? (or it needs some other solution?)

[Dovecot] Problem using LDAP generating Userhome
by Thorsten Habich 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

Hi there, I'm trying to let dovecot generate the userhome directory dynamicly via user_attr. If "uid" is returned from LDAP before "mail" everything is fine, but if "mail" is delivered before "uid" the localpart of the mailaddress is used in home path. e.g.: Mail: testuser(a)domain.de UID : test123 sometimes home is /mail/store/testuser and sometimes /mail/store/test123 depending on the order the ldap server replies. I'm currently using version 1.2.7 of dovecot in testing and 1.1.6 in production. Both have the same "bug". Mails are stored on nfs, indexes are stored local. This is my dovecot-ldap.conf configuration: pass_filter = (|(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(mail=%u))(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(mailalternateAddress=%u))(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(uid=%n))) pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,mailMessageStore=home=%$/telefonica.de/%Ln,mailFilterStore=sieve_dir=%$/telefonica.de/%Ln user_filter = (|(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(mail=%u))(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(mailalternateAddress=%u))(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(uid=%n))) user_attrs = uid=user,mailMessageStore=home=%$/telefonica.de/%Ln,mailFilterStore=sieve_dir=%$/telefonica.de/%Ln The filter needs to be that way, because you need to be able to authenticate by uid or mailaddress. And the dovecot -n output: # 1.2.7: /etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-92.1.13.el5 x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2 (Tikanga) base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot-info.log log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S syslog_facility: local1 protocols: imap managesieve listen(default): *:143 listen(imap): *:143 listen(managesieve): *, [::] ssl: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(managesieve): /usr/libexec/dovecot/managesieve-login login_greeting: IMAP mail server ready. max_mail_processes: 200 mail_max_userip_connections(default): 50 mail_max_userip_connections(imap): 50 mail_max_userip_connections(managesieve): 10 verbose_proctitle: yes first_valid_uid: 1 mail_privileged_group: vmail mail_uid: 500 mail_gid: 500 mail_location: maildir:~/:INDEX=/mail/index/%Ln/ mailbox_idle_check_interval: 10 mail_debug: yes mmap_disable: yes mail_nfs_storage: yes mail_nfs_index: yes lock_method: flock mbox_write_locks: dotlock fcntl mail_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(managesieve): /usr/libexec/dovecot/managesieve mail_plugins(default): expire autocreate mail_plugins(imap): expire autocreate mail_plugins(managesieve): mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(managesieve): /usr/lib64/dovecot/managesieve imap_client_workarounds(default): delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(imap): delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(managesieve): managesieve_implementation_string(default): dovecot managesieve_implementation_string(imap): dovecot managesieve_implementation_string(managesieve): Cyrus timsieved v2.2.13 namespace: type: private separator: . prefix: INBOX. inbox: yes list: yes subscriptions: yes namespace: type: public separator: . prefix: Public. location: maildir:/mail/store/a.backend/shared list: yes subscriptions: yes lda: hostname: xxx mail_plugins: sieve expire mail_plugin_dir: /usr/lib64/dovecot/lda auth_socket_path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master postmaster_address: xxx(a)telefonica.de sieve_global_dir: /mail/store/backend/sieve/ auth default: mechanisms: plain login username_format: %Lu verbose: yes debug: yes process_size: 512 passdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf userdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf socket: type: listen client: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-client mode: 432 user: postfix group: vmail master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 384 user: vmail group: vmail plugin: sieve: ~/%Ln.sieve sieve_dir: ~/sieve sieve_storage: ~/ expire: Trash 7 Trash/* 7 Junk 30 expire_dict: proxy::expire autocreate: INBOX.Trash autocreate2: INBOX.Drafts autocreate3: INBOX.Sent autosubscribe: INBOX.Trash autosubscribe2: INBOX.Drafts autosubscribe3: INBOX.Sent dict: expire: db:/var/lib/dovecot/expire.db Thanks in advanced.

[Dovecot] Dovecot Sieve some rules not working
by tobi 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

Hope this list is the right place for a question about dovecot sieve. I have some rules of which some are working and some are not. I cannot understand why two rules wont work. }elsif header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "from" "EMAILADDRESS" { fileinto "Computer &- Security.Foren &- Maillists.Synology.Forum"; stop; } elsif header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "from" "EMAILADDRESS" { fileinto "Computer &- Security.Foren &- Maillists.PHP-Resource"; stop; } elsif header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "subject" "*****SPAM*****" { fileinto "Junk E-mail"; stop; } else { keep; } The first one works as expected. But the second and third one don't work and emails matching those rules remain in INBOX. There are not errors in the errorfile in users home directory. The only thing I changed was to move the Folder "Computer &- Security" and changed the fileinto destinations accordingly. The folder "Junk E-mail" was not moved but the rule that worked before is not working anymore. I have no clue why only part of the rules work and where I could check what the problem coud be. Thanks for any help/hints Cheers tobi

[Dovecot] Problems with listescape and mutt
by Daniel Spannbauer 11 Dec '09

Hello, we are using Dovecot 1.2.6 with activated listescape-Plugin. Mutt mutt seems to have a problem with listescape (or my configuration [1] is screwed). When I log in with mutt over imap an press "c", I see al the folders, .Trash, .Drafts etc. But when I try to change to .Drafts (for example), mutt gives me the error the he can't find the folder "\2eDrafts". Is this a Problem with the listescape-Plugin or a Problem mith the mutt-Configuration? Any hints are welcome.

[Dovecot] Account Migration Tool
by dmiller＠amfes.com 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

I don't know if this tool already exists, or if not how difficult it would be to implement, but the following is an excerpt from the man page the developer needs to write ;) - "imapcopy", a command-line utility that connects to a given IMAP account and copies the mails to a second IMAP account. This is accomplished using only IMAP commands and may be used with any IMAP compliant server - and may be used to copy mails between servers. Command line options include the ability to delete the messages after the copy (resulting in a move operation), selectively filter mail folders, and auto-folder creation. -- Daniel

[Dovecot] dovecot: Fatal: Time just moved backwards by 3909 seconds.
by Udo Rader 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Hi, after setting up a KVM based virtual guest on one of our virtualization servers, we see dovecot die on that virtual guest regularly because of an alleged time shift. The virtual guest is Centos 5.4 based with dovecot 1.2.8 (at first we also tried with the original 1.0.7 (?) dovecot shipped with Centos). I wrote "alleged time shift" because there is no timeshift whatsoever, or at least I don't notice it anywhere else. ntp is - of course ;-) - up and running and no other applications have time troubles and I've even disabled the local clock as a time reference. As a proof that the time did not shift see this log excerpt: ------CUT------- Nov 29 14:02:22 athesia dovecot: IMAP(atester): Connection closed Nov 29 14:04:11 athesia dovecot: imap-login: Time just moved backwards by 4397 seconds. This might cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now. http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards ------CUT------- So as you see, dovecot successfully logged a message on 14:02 and then complained about the time having shifted 4397 seconds on 14:04 ... Thanks in advance -- Udo Rader, CTO http://www.bestsolution.at http://riaschissl.blogspot.com

[Dovecot] Overriding Default Subscription Behavior
by Tony Rutherford 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

The subscription files we're migrating from have a "." for folder separation. We will be using Dovecot's maildir with LAYOUT=fs. It's looking for "/" as the separator in the subscription file. So, obviously we could simply write a script to swap the two characters. However, just curious if there are any options for doing this within a plugin (since we're already doing some things in a plugin) by overriding some of the subscription code.something like the "next_line()" in subscriptions.c. I don't see any vfuncs in this area, aside from set_subscribed() I believe.but maybe there's a better spot I'm not thinking of? One thing I've learned with Dovecot is that it somehow supports things I didn't believe it could/would, so I thought I'd ask. Tony

[Dovecot] PostgreSQL connection bug
by Daniel Howard 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Hello, There seems to be a bug which can affect systems using PostgreSQL as a user or password database. Usually there is just one postgres connection, but if the query fails for any reason, the failed connection is left open and dovecot will keep opening new connections for each auth attempt. I discovered this with a setup using PAM, AND a database to authenticate. Most users login with an account number (integer) which is looked up in the postgres database. Some users have a unix system account, and use their system username to log in (string). Dovecot was set up to check the database first, then try PAM. When a system user logged in, the SQL query failed because it couldn't coerce the system user's username into an integer. In these cases, Dovecot would still fall back to PAM authentication, and the user would log in, but the postgres connection would remain stuck. Gradually the number of connections would increase until postgres failed. I worked around this by converting the account numbers in the database from integers to strings. Now the query never fails and there's only ever 1 dovecot connection. Hopefully this will help someone. dovecot --version 1.0.15 dovecot -n # 1.0.15: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir auth default: passdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd userdb: driver: prefetch cat dovecot-sql.conf | egrep -v "^#" driver = pgsql connect = host=localhost dbname=rapidgroup user=dovecot password=********* default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = SELECT userid as user, password, userdb_mail, userdb_uid, userdb_gid FROM dovecotview WHERE userid='%u' Cheers, Dan

i'll guess the solution to my problem will be something simple and obvious, because i know i ain't the first person to do this and it ain't all that complicated, but i've been staring at it for days and can't see what's wrong. new installation; os x snow leopard server; postfix 2.5.5; dovecot 1.1.17apple0.5 i'm trying to get SMTP auth working via SASL. using a plain password scheme and plain auth scheme over SSL. client is apple mail. deliveries are working, and dovecot's pop3s and imaps are working just fine. my configuration is the same simple config that is well documented on both the postfix and dovecot sites. when i attempt to use smtp auth from a mail client, postfix says SASL plain authentication failed unable to lookup user record smtp authentication also fails if i use the usual command line method: # telnet localhost 25 Escape character is '^]'. 220 osx-106.example.com ESMTP Postfix EHLO foobie.example.com 250-osx-106.example.com 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 10485760 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5 250-STARTTLS 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-8BITMIME 250 DSN AUTH PLAIN blah blah blah 535 Error: authentication failed i've scoured months worth of postfix and dovecot list archives and although there are many sasl related issues i didn't see anything specific to this. as expected, the socket is srw-rw---- 1 _postfix _postfix 0 Dec 4 08:51 /var/spool/postfix/private/auth lsof shows the socket is open by dovecot-auth (which is running as root): dovecot-a 63614 root 5u unix 0x0888b990 0t0 /var/spool/postfix/private/auth i have not seen the socket opened by postfix, but i'm assuming that is a transient event and would be difficult to capture (at least with lsof). so both postfix and dovecot have read/write access to the socket. the credentials sent are the same whether they're sent via a true pop3 client or via the command line. when sent via the command line, they're generated via perl -MMIME::Base64 -e 'print encode_base64("\0username\0password");'and i've verified they're correct via decode_base64 config stuff: # postconf -n biff = no command_directory = /usr/sbin config_directory = /etc/postfix content_filter = smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024 daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix debug_peer_level = 2 enable_server_options = yes header_checks = pcre:/etc/postfix/custom_header_checks html_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix/html inet_interfaces = all mail_owner = _postfix mailbox_size_limit = 0 mailbox_transport = dovecot mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq manpage_directory = /usr/share/man message_size_limit = 10485760 mydomain = example.com mydomain_fallback = localhost mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8,192.168.61.0/24 newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases queue_directory = /private/var/spool/postfix readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix recipient_delimiter = + relayhost = sample_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix/examples sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail setgid_group = _postdrop smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated reject smtpd_enforce_tls = no smtpd_helo_required = yes smtpd_helo_restrictions = reject_invalid_helo_hostname reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname smtpd_pw_server_security_options = plain, login cram-md5 smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated permit_mynetworks reject_unauth_destination check_policy_service unix:private/policy reject smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/certificates/osx-106.example.com.E2FA6EFB8203E2E09C605D30A179669E4B4F69EB.chain.pem smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/certificates/osx-106.example.com.E2FA6EFB8203E2E09C605D30A179669E4B4F69EB.cert.pem smtpd_tls_exclude_ciphers = SSLv2, aNULL, ADH, eNULL smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/certificates/osx-106.example.com.E2FA6EFB8203E2E09C605D30A179669E4B4F69EB.key.pem smtpd_use_pw_server = yes smtpd_use_tls = yes unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 virtual_alias_maps = virtual_gid_maps = static:5000 virtual_mailbox_base = /etc/postfix/datastore virtual_mailbox_domains = osx.example.com virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/datausers virtual_minimum_uid = 100 virtual_uid_maps = static:5000 # dovecotd -n # 1.1.17apple0.5: /private/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf Warning: fd limit 256 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load (more than 456).

[Dovecot] Cannot read mdir inbox.
by Marc Dufour 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Problem: Dovecot is totally and merrily oblivious to maildir INBOX installed in the usual /var/spool/mail/%u Software/system: Dovecot 1.2.8 running under Fedora 12 with 1.9 gig RAM + AMD Athlon LE-1640 CPU on a ASUS M3A78-EM motherboard (uname -a = Linux 2.6.31.6-162.fc12.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Dec 4 00:06:26 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ) Dovecot has been installed from the Fedora repositories, not recompiled from scratch. System has only one hard disk and is on one ext4 LVM partition. My configurations are http://emdx.org/Dovecot/dovecot.confA.txt for "dovecot -a" http://emdx.org/Dovecot/dovecot.confN.txt for "dovecot -n" The mail is properly delivered by Exim in the proper place. Using a client (Thunderbird 3), if I copy some messages in the INBOX, they stay there, but they are nowhere to be found in the /var/spool/mail/%u directory. User mail is in ~/Maildir. I tried to make a symlink pointing to /var/spool/mail/%u and, of course, it does not work. I also tried giving chmod 666 to all files in /var/spool/mail/%u (and chmod 777 for the directories), this makes no difference. Otherwise, Dovecot works flawlessly and without no problems whatsoever in ~/Maildir. I can transfer huge volumes of email from the future old server and everything is rock solid. I just can’t get the INBOX. I would rather not fiddle with Exim and have it deliver the mail into ~/Maildir Google has been stellarly inefficient in helping me find solutions.

[Dovecot] Virtual mailboxes not always up to date?
by Patrick Nagel 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Hi, I have been experimenting with the Virtual mailboxes plugin [1] recently. This is my setup: the following dovecot-virtual file exists in a virtual mailbox called "todo": ------ dovecot-virtual ------ * -Trash -Trash/* -Spam -Spam/* OR KEYWORD $TODO KEYWORD todo ----------------------------- so if any mail in any mailbox except Trash+Spam has the keyword "$TODO" (that's what KMail sets when you mark a message as "action item") or "todo" (that's what Thunderbird sets when you put the Todo tag on a message), it should be shown in that 'todo' virtual mailbox. This works for the first time after I edit the dovecot-virtual file and then access the virtual mailbox (all mails I expect to be shown in the todo mailbox are there) - but further accesses always show the same content, even though I removed the keyword from one of the mails (and I can confirm that the keyword has actually been removed by dovecot, since the filename doesn't contain the letter corresponding to the keyword anymore). It seems that changing the dovecot-virtual file triggers the execution of the "search program" - but shouldn't simply accessing the virtual mailbox also trigger it? Or is there a (undocumented?) timeout between search program executions? Patrick.
