[Dovecot] expire_dict - Folder names with spaces
by michael＠euroinfissi.eu 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Hi! How to deal with IMAP foldernames that include spaces when setting up the expire tool for them? I have the folder Elementy usuni&ARk-te but expire: Wiadomo&AVs-ci-&AVo-mieci 7 Elementy?usuni&ARk-te 7 INBOX 365 does not work... and expire: Wiadomo&AVs-ci-&AVo-mieci 7 Elementy usuni&ARk-te 7 INBOX 365 produces the following: Stopping Dovecot Imap: [ OK ] Starting Dovecot Imap: ☺ILoading modules from directory: /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap ☺IModule loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap/lib10_quota_plugin.so ☺IModule loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap/lib11_imap_quota_plugin.so ☺IModule loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap/lib20_autocreate_plugin.so ☺IModule loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap/lib20_expire_plugin.so ☺IEffective uid=99, gid=99, home=/tmp ☺IQuota root: name=user backend=dict args=:proxy::quota ☺IQuota rule: root=user mailbox=* bytes=1073741824 messages=0 ☺IQuota warning: bytes=1020054732 (95%) messages=0 command=/usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 95 ☺IQuota warning: bytes=858993459 (80%) messages=0 command=/usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 80 ☺Iexpire: pattern=Wiadomo&AVs-ci-&AVo-mieci type=expunge secs=604800 ☺Iexpire: pattern=Elementy type=expunge secs=0 ☺Iexpire: pattern=7 type=expunge secs=0 ☺Fexpire: Missing expire days for mailbox '365' Error: imap dump-capability process returned 89 Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot.conf [FAILED] My conf: # OS: Linux 2.6.30.9-96.fc11.x86_64 x86_64 Fedora release 11 (Leonidas) info_log_path: /var/log/maillog protocols: imaps ssl_listen: * ssl: required ssl_cert_file: /etc/pki/certs/dovecot/dovecot.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/pki/certs/dovecot/dovecot_key.pem ssl_cipher_list: ALL:!ADH!LOW:!SSLv2:!EXP:+HIGH:+MEDIUM disable_plaintext_auth: yes verbose_ssl: yes login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: dovecot_mail mail_debug: yes mail_plugins: autocreate quota imap_quota expire lda: postmaster_address: root@localhost auth default: passdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot-sql.conf userdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot-sql.conf plugin: quota: dict:user::proxy::quota quota_rule: *:storage=1048576 quota_warning: storage=95%% /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 95 quota_warning2: storage=80%% /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 80 expire: Wiadomo&AVs-ci-&AVo-mieci 7 Elementy?usuni&ARk-te 7 INBOX 365 expire_dict: proxy::expire dict: quota: mysql:/etc/dovecot-dict-quota.conf expire: mysql:/etc/dovecot-dict-expire.conf Thanks!

[Dovecot] Patch: event port-based ioloop and notify
by Emanuele Pucciarelli 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Greetings, thanks to all of you who work on Dovecot! I have prepared a small patch to support Solaris 10 and Opensolaris' event port mechanism for both the ioloop and the notify subsystems. It seems to work fine for me, but I haven't conducted any extensive testing. It would be great if someone could review and/or test it (and if it could eventually enter the code base). I have uploaded a copy at http://cr.opensolaris.org/~e.p/dovecot/dovecot-01-fen.diff . Thanks! -- Emanuele

[Dovecot] Mail.app + dovecot 1.2 + POP3
by Rodolfo Gonzalez Gonzalez 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Hello all, I have an user with MacOS X 10.5 Mail.app 3.5, which is connecting using POP3 to a dovecot 1.2 server. He has a 512 kbps link, which he saturates downloading large files. While the bandwidth is saturated, Mail.app shows the POP3 account as "offline" (I haven't used that client, but it seems that it doesn't retry the connection if it fails at some moment). He argues that he has some other POP3 and IMAP4 accounts configured in the same app, and those accounts never go "offline" even if the bw usage is at 100% (those other accounts are not on my servers and I don't know which sw are they using). My question is, could dovecot be somehow involved in this "offline" issue? (something like the past IDLE issues with Outlook 2007?) Thanks in advanced.

Re: [Dovecot] After upgrading to 1.2 - absolute path questions
by Richard Stockton 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Hi Timo, Okay, I'm confused now... Here is what we are using with 1.1.19: password_query = SELECT password, home as userdb_home, 5000 as userdb_uid, 5000 as userdb_gid FROM mailbox where userid = '%n' mail_location = maildir:/mail/%h:INDEX=MEMORY The "/mail/" dir contains 26 NFS mounted partitions. Will this still work in 1.2? I have been holding off upgrading because it sounded like I would have to add the "/mail/" prefix to all the "home" directories in my user DB, and with 5 instances of Dovecot running off the same DB, I would have to shut down the pop/imap servers for the upgrade, something that would NOT make my boss happy. However, if I can leave the configs and the database as they are, the update will not be a big problem. Please let me know if I can use the old configs with Dovecot 1.2.x, I would love to be using the latest and greatest. And BTW, thanks again for all your hard work, Dovecot is a wonderful piece of software, and we really appreciate it! - Richard

[Dovecot] v2.0.alpha3 released
by Timo Sirainen 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/alpha/dovecot-2.0.alpha3.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/alpha/dovecot-2.0.alpha3.tar.gz.sig Nothing horribly exciting since alpha2, but since I did other releases I thought I might as well release this one too. - Most of the stuff in master.conf is now built into binaries so the file itself is small. dovecot -n also doesn't show the defaults anymore. - Settings now have size and time types. So instead of always wondering if the units are bytes or kilobytes or megabytes, you can just use e.g. 100k, 100M values. And the same for 100 secs, 100 mins, 100 hours, etc. - verbose_proctitle=yes was pretty useless in alpha2 after the pre/post-login changes. I've now enabled Linux proctitle hack that allows changing process title (in ps). It now shows e.g. the current command being executed by imap process. There is also some hope of getting a proper setproctitle() function to Linux, the patch just got to -mm code tree today! - anvil process now stays alive across SIGHUPs. So "doveadm who" no longer forgets users after SIGHUP. - remote_ip IP {} and local_ip IP {} changed to remote host|IP {} and local host|IP {}, i.e. if it's not an IP Dovecot does host name lookup. - Using host names is also important to get TLS SNI working. With TLS SNI support if client supports it, you can serve multiple certificates with a single IP address. - LMTP server adds now Received: header - Fixes to LMTP server - Fixes to dsync Some of the larger changes left: - plugin API probably needs to be changed, so that it's possible to handle multiple users by same process but with different plugins - config process is too slow - rawlog no longer works because of how pre/post-login works now. it probably needs to be changed into a service and configured something like: service imap-rawlog { executable = rawlog imap-real /home/%u unix_listener imap { } } service imap { unix_listener imap-real { } } The point would be that when imap-login connects to imap, it actually connects to rawlog which then connects to imap-real and starts proxying the connection. A few problems: 1) userdb lookup is done by imap process, so rawlog doesn't know user's home directory. Perhaps more code could be added so that rawlog requests imap process to send it back, but maybe that's too much trouble. That's why I thought just adding a 3rd /home/%u parameter, where rawlog expands %u to username since that's at least known. 2) Currently it's not possible to remove default internal unix_listeners, so the above config wouldn't actually work anyway. I guess there needs to be some new syntax like "!unix_listener imap" or something that removes it.. Then again, a nice thing about this is that the rawlog will work with all types of services, even imap-logins, although that's going to be almost useless for SSL connections.

[Dovecot] How do i translate the old default_mail_env setting?
by Gary Kline 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Hi, First, I am new to dovecot. Before my Jan '08 meltdown, sendmail was sufficient. A friend set up dovecot and since things just-worked, I was happy with that. Now I have a new mailserver and what was installed nearly two years ago fails. My pal installed things in dovecot.conf this way: default_mail_env = maildir:~/Maildir but the new mail environment is too different to be readily understood. --At least for me!-- The "%u" variable is confusing; so in the "%h" ($HOME [?]) variable... Would the following edit work on my old conf file: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir ? tia, gary kline -- Gary Kline kline(a)thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org The 7.31a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php

I debugged and realized that patched plugin generates - for search "xxx yyy": q=body:"XXX YYY*" It should be: q=body:XXX* +body:YYY* (not q=body:"XXX*" +body:"YYY*" - quotation does matter) But this does not work as expected. Prefix searches (with asterisk) are case-sensitive. I googled around and found this post - http://michaelkimsal.com/blog/solr-case-sensitivty/comment-page-1/#comment-… . It is old - 2007, but it looks SOLR is still case-sensitive for *. Because of dovecot capitalizes query (and this is right, I think), the search will never find a thing. I played with Solr admin for 3 evenings and I have to say - its behaviour is strange. For example, if I send several emails with body of 2 words: "xxx yyy", "yyy xxx", "xxX yYY" etc. - different case and different word order - it does not find "xxx" in all emails. Maybe Solr 1.4 is not production-ready yet and 1.3 is better. But it is enough for me, maybe I will return to it in next year. Now I will try to apply your changeset (fts-squat: Fixed searching multi-byte characters) to dovecot 1.2.4 (debian stable). If you think 1.2.8 is better, I will follow your recommendation.

[Dovecot] LDA: handling non-existent mail dirs
by Edgar Fuß 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

We have users existing in LDAP but not supposed to receive mail. We used to handle that (somewhat ungracefully) by simply not creating the top mail directory for those accounts. Since switching to Dovecots LDA, these non-existing dirs are considered temporary failures and so the junk mails pile up in postfix' queue Would it be possible for deliver to optionally treat this as a permanent error? I know the clean solution woud be checking for an LDAP attribute in postfix before even accepting the mail.

[Dovecot] dovecot v 1.28 and virtual folders
by Jim Richard 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

I haven't been able to make this work. I've experimented with different settings in my dovecot.conf for hours. I have a simple single user ubuntu setup, nothing fancy and would just like to have a virtual "unread" folder of my main INBOX, for use with Squirrelmail So, with just this, all good... subfolders look like .INBOX.duplicates for example in the file system namespace private { separator = . location = maildir:~/Maildir inbox = yes } now, when I try to add a virtual namespace namespace private { subscriptions = yes list = yes inbox = no prefix = virtual. separator = . location = virtual:~/Maildir/virtual } ~/Maildir/virtual does exist in the filesystem, I can "subscribe" to virtual but if I try to create a sub folder of it I get ERROR: Could not complete request. Query: CREATE "virtual.test" Reason Given: [CANNOT] Can't create virtual mailboxes Squirrelmail is great because it has some nice IMAP testing tools, so for example, with my current dovecot config I can test the NAMESPACE command, is that the correct response? Request: A003 NAMESPACE Response: * NAMESPACE (("" ".")("virtual." ".")) NIL NIL Namespace completed. I'm sure the issue is a fundamental lack of understanding of a concept here ... Any help would be appreciated. thank you, -Jim

[Dovecot] mailboxcasecmp()
by Frank Cusack 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

I remember way back, i'd modified the dspam training plugin to compare mailbox names case-insensitively. that patch wasn't accepted. i didn't understand why since it was obviously correct and had no negative impact, at least i didn't think so. Now I've hit another case where case-insensitive mailbox names would be useful: +addressing. If I have a mailbox 'Ext' and I send mail to frank+Ext@, the LHS is lowercased to 'frank+ext' and the +extension delivery doesn't find the 'Ext' mailbox. If the +extension is going to be lowercased, then the mailbox names should be lowercased when looking for them. Or, since 'ext' and 'Ext' can co-exist, the +extension shouldn't be lowercased when looking for the mailbox. I prefer the former (lowercase everything), since it's unlikely a user would create both 'mailbox' and 'Mailbox', however I can envision plenty of times where users would try to use '+ext' yet create the '+Ext" mailbox and never be able to figure out why it doesn't work. I know the latter solution (case sensitive extensions and case sensitive mailboxes) is more correct but really it will be harder to debug user problems. -frank

[Dovecot] different views of a imap account
by Ajaxster 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Hi, I've looked around a few times to see if I could figure the answer to this question but I think I may not know the right question to ask... The scenario I have is that I'm running dovecot, exim and procmail on one server (using maildir storage) and also have apache on another server. I can run squirrel mail, roundcube, etc. all on the web server and access all my email just fine. I can run outlook or thunderbird or other imap clients just fine too. I have some smart phones that support imap mail servers, but when I set them up to connect to my server, the client seems to have to sync up data on all the mailboxes (lots of headers to download). All I really want on my remote (phone based) imap clients is to view my inbox. I believe that the subscriptions are done globally in that every client sees the same subscriptions, so that doesn't seem like the way to narrow down what my phone imap clients see. Does what I'd like to do make sense? Is there a way to configure dovecot to support this? Could I just run two servers on the same machine at different ports to support this? I'd love to hear about how others have approached this or similar problems. I've seen a lite email client that can be run on an apache server that wap browsers can access to view mail. That works okay, but with phones having built in imap clients, that seems like a more streamlined way to go ;-) Thanks for you thoughts! -- Jay

[Dovecot] rquota in dovecot-1.2.8-0_103.el5.x86_64.rpm
by David Warden 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Is rquota purposefully not present in the RPM at http://atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot/dovecot-1.2.8-0_103.el5.x86_64.rpm.html ? On a test machine I decided to give dovecot 1.2 a go with that RPM and everything went great except I was getting the following error in the dovecot log (and quota was not working): Dec 9 10:50:43 webmailtest2 dovecot: IMAP(auser) rip=127.0.0.1: quotactl(Q_GETQUOTA, nfsserver.geneseo.edu:/vol/email/users) failed: No such file or directory I had seen some messages on the mailing list talking about making sure you build with HAVE_RQUOTA defined at compile time. I wasn't able to determine if the RPM on the aforementioned page was simply missing the rquota code, but upon building the SRPM from the same place (http://atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot/, SRPM itself is http://dl.atrpms.net/all/dovecot-1.2.8-0_103.src.rpm) I saw HAVE_RQUOTA fly by and the rquota source files get built and linked, and when using those binaries rquota started working. I scanned the changelog for the binary RPM for something indicating that rquota support had been taken out but didn't see anything. Apologies if this is better sent to the package maintainer; I'm hoping he checks this list or someone has already run into this and can set me (and anyone else who may run in to this problem) straight. -David Warden

[Dovecot] Different Formats Per User?

For migration possibilities, we're considering whether it's possible to have Dovecot run some users using standard Maildir format, while other users would be using filesystem (LAYOUT=fs) format? We could determine which one's users have, but is there a way to tell Dovecot this information, and is it even part of the Dovecot design to deal with this scenario? Thanks, Tony

[Dovecot] permission issue when moving / copying a message
by Jean-Christophe Baptiste 08 Dec '09

08 Dec '09

Hi all, I am having an issue with permission that may be a bug. The issue happens when moving / copying a message from a folder to another : sometimes the message gets the wrong permission (umask). The typical use case is, inside a maildir box and within imap, moving a spam message to the spam folder. Then a cron script is supposed to access to it to feed the antispam database. I wish the message file to be created with umask 0002 but sometimes it creates it with 0022. There is an example in my maildir : # ls -la /home/vmail/domain.com/contact/.spam/cur total 84 drwxrwx--- 2 vmail vmail 4096 déc. 7 23:19 . drwxrwx--- 5 vmail vmail 4096 déc. 7 23:19 .. -rw------- 2 vmail vmail 1303 déc. 7 14:37 1260211373.M462708P12977.genki:2,S -rw-rw---- 2 vmail vmail 73090 juin 8 14:57 1260224357.M884229P14370.genki:2,S As you can see, one file is OK and the other one not. Parents directories have the correct permissions, which should be pushed to the children (according to the doc). With my current configuration, it is something I can reproduce it often but I could not find what exactly triggers it. Thank you in advance for looking at this case and for your help, Regards, -- Jean-Christophe Baptiste <jc(a)phocean.net>

[Dovecot] Mbox corruption
by Erinn Looney-Triggs 07 Dec '09

07 Dec '09

I am trying to track down an mbox corruption issue that has been happening for one of our users. It appears that the mbox file is getting truncated and the all important From line no longer exists which then leads to the mbox being useless. It also appears, as in most truncations, that parts of the mbox are being lost. I am not sure how to debug this to find out whether this is a client or server issue and any pointers would be appreciated. Here are the facts as I have them: Server: RHEL5 x64/ Dovecot 1.2.8 Client: Win/ Thunderbird 2.0.0.23 This appears to only be happening for one user out of several hundred across 30 or so Dovecot servers, so I am leaning towards this being a client issue, but I don't know a great deal about the low level working of IMAP to debug. For example, I assume that the client issues a request to the server on the order of delete message 34 and the server then overwrites the mbox file (this then would point to it being a server issue)? The corruption occurs in a random assortment of this users files, so sometimes the inbox, others the Trash or one of many other folders this user has. The user also reports that before the corruption occurs duplicates of e-mail will start to appear in folders, even folders that have been unused for a long period of time. Oh I suppose I should also mention that this is about the third or fourth time this has happened to this user and it seems to happen about every 2-3 weeks. Does any of this sound familiar to anyone? Any suggestions as to how to root this out? Thanks, -Erinn

They are all running version 1.2.8 and are all configured identically minus compile differences for RHEL4 or 5 and x86 vs. x86_64. So the user is always accessing the same server. It is extremely odd that this issue is happening only to this one user on this one system which still make me lean toward it being a client issue but I am unsure of how to determine that. -Erinn

[Dovecot] 1.1 -> 1.2 upgrade?
by Dave McGuire 07 Dec '09

07 Dec '09

Hey folks. I'm currently running Dovecot v1.1.6, and would like to move to 1.2.x soon. I'm using MySQL-backed LDA and fully virtualized mailboxes. Are there any upgrade gotchas I should be aware of? How much config file hacking should I expect? Thanks, -Dave -- Dave McGuire Port Charlotte, FL

[Dovecot] forbid some users and machines ?
by Frank Bonnet 07 Dec '09

07 Dec '09

Hello 1 - Is there a way to forbid log in of some Dovecot's users ? I use NIS as authentication mechanism. 2 - Is it possible to forbid some machines (IP addresses ) to connect to Dovecot server ? Thank you

[Dovecot] virtual domains and SSL certificates
by Dick Middleton 07 Dec '09

07 Dec '09

Hi, This topic has been discussed before e.g: <QUOTE> On 2008-08-07, at 1143, Kacper Wysocki wrote: The problem is that the configuration file specifies only one certificate file for dovecot, which means only one Common Name, which means one cannot provide one server cert that will match mail.foo.com AND mail.bar.com, and either ma...(a)foo.com or bo...(a)bar.com will get a "Security Error: Domain Name Mismatch" in their mail client when connecting through IMAPS. </QUOTE> I bring it up again because I've just been trying the release candidate for Thunderbird 3. This has a config wizard which derives from ones email address the mail server address etc. It doesn't handle SSL virtual mail servers very well because of this problem. I have encountered a web server called Cherokee (http://www.cherokee-project.com) which has virtual server capability that *demands* a different certificate for each virtual server. How can that be I thought? This is what Cherokee documentation says: <QUOTE> SSL Virtual Hosts You might have been told elsewhere that named virtual hosts in SSL cannot be supported without SNI (Server Name Indication) because a web server cannot see the hostname header when the SSL request is being processed. Technically this might have been correct in the past. The first thing that the server has to do is to connect with the other end by using SSL/TLS. The user entered host part of the URI must match the Common Name (CN) provided by the certificate. Since virtual hosts are in use, the CN of the first available certificate may or may not match the one specified in the early stages of TLS negotiation. Cherokee supports the clean and standard method of dealing with this issue called Server Name Indication (SNI) that sends the name of the virtual host during the TLS negotiation. If SNI is supported by your SSL/TLS library, the SSL layer does not need to be restarted. Since the host info can be put in the SSL handshake, things will simply work as long as there is a web browser with SNI support at the other side. Currently every modern web browser supports this, and Cherokee has TLS SNI support for the OpenSSL backends. Note that for SNI to work, client support is required. Web browsers known to support it are Mozilla Firefox 2.0+, Opera 8.0+, Internet Explorer 7 (Vista, not XP) or later and Google Chrome. </QUOTE> If Cherokee can do it why not dovecot? Is this something that is, or could be, being considered? It does assume that TB3 and other mail clients support SNI but whatever, I suspect that once TB3 is released the subject will pop-up more frequently. I'm curious to know the latest thinking. Dick

[Dovecot] Manual files moving and index files
by Kārlis Repsons 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

Hello all! My first question about dovecot turns out to be: what if I have something outside of dovecot, which sometimes moves messages out of a mail folder and other times into it? Does that make any problem for dovecot or indexing?

[Dovecot] dovecot-shared Problem
by Darius Bohni 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Hi, first, sorry for my english, i hope u understand me :-/ I try to set up dovecot with imap and maildir. I run into a permission problem. I need to have read and execute rights of all folders and mails for the group (needed by the backup deamon). first I tried with umask, but this only affect folders and no mails. Then I read about dovecot-shared and tried this. Permissions are now ok but and this is a big but., I have troubles with thunderbird. I copied a folder from an pop3 account to the imap account (Inbox->subfolder). Now all mails are unread. OK i mark all as read. Now I move a message to the inbox and back to the subfolder an wonder, the mail is now marked as unreaded again. When i set up the mailboxes without the dovecot-shared file, the behaviour above is gone!! But my permission problem is back :-( Permissions of dovecot-shared is 750 and the mainfolder is 750 with g+s can anybody help me? thank u alot grz. fr3ak4l

[Dovecot] Excluding ALT maildir from showing in main INBOX
by Tomasz Przewlucki 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Hi, I've setup dovecot 1.2.7 with dbox mail storage and ALTernative (additional) mail directory + expire plugin and expire_altmove working properly. grep from .conf: ( dbox:/var/spool/mail/%n/MAIL:INDEX=/var/spool/mail/%n/INDEX:ALT=/var/spool/mailarchive/%n/MAIL ) What i would need now is excluding all folders and messages from "ALT" maildir from default view (so they will not show in INBOX and other standard folders. I would like to create namespace or virtual folder and include those ALT maildirs as so called Archive (f.e. prefix). Is that (excluding ALT from default view) possible ? Best Regards, Tomasz Przewlucki

[Dovecot] Light "bug" in authtest, sockets path
by Andre 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Hi to all! I’ve changed position to client auth socket to enable postfix authentication. The socket is now created in /var/spool/postfix/private/auth. authtest do not catch up the change. Reading source I’ve seen that path to auth sockets is written explicitly in function authtest_passdb in util/authtest.c to: if (auth_socket_path == NULL) auth_socket_path = PKG_RUNDIR"/auth-client”; I know I can launch authtest specifing path to socket, but I think it would be better if authtest would parse dovecot.conf and find out where sockets are. I’ve tried to code it by myself, but I’ve had no time to go deep in the code. Is it possible to have this “feature” added??? TIA Andrea

[Dovecot] busy / developers documentation
by Timo Sirainen 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Just thought I'd mention that I probably won't be answering mails very actively this week while I'm in San Antonio (and I was kind of busy last week too). Hopefully I'll get back to answering/bugfixing next week.. I also started writing developers documentation to http://wiki.dovecot.org/Design. Comments welcome. Some things I had planned next: - istream internals - lib-storage API docs - ..?

[Dovecot] Vacation message with Sieve
by Rene Bakkum 02 Dec '09

02 Dec '09

Hello all, I am trying to get my vacation messages to work correctly. In general it works like how I want, and replies when a message is arived to for example info(a)domain.com, but I have some problems to get my vacation message to work on catch-all boxes. Is there an option to for example auto-reply on every mail that is sendto @domain.com? I am using Ubuntu 9.10 default packages, which are the following versions: dovecot -n # 1.1.11: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.31-14-server x86_64 Ubuntu 9.10 ext4 mail_plugins = cmusieve My example file of the vacation message I use is: require ["vacation"]; vacation # Reply at most once a day to a same sender :days [vacationmessage_delay_days] :subject "Autorespond: [vacationmessage_subject]" # List of recipient addresses which are included in the auto replying. # If a mail's recipient is not on this list, no vacation reply is sent for it. :addresses ["[username]@[domain]"] "[vacationmessage_message]"; I tried changing [username]@[domain] into @[domain] or *@[domain], but that is giving me errors. Anyone has any pointers how to achieve this (if its possible at all)... Regards, Rene

[Dovecot] Can't start dovecot from heartbeat
by John Gray 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

I get the following error: Fatal: epoll_create(): Too many open files (you may need to increase /proc/sys/fs/epoll/max_user_instances) Works fine if I start it by hand, I'm guessing it has to due with the environment heart starts it in? My first thought was to do exactly what the message suggests, but my kernel doesn't appear to define max_user_instances, but there is a max_user_watches. I'm running 1.2.8, by the way. But I had a similar problem with earlier version too. John

Hi everybody, I have a problem after configuring dovecot to work with mysql (Debian Etch System). When i send an email from outside, i have an undelivred mail returned to sender saying : Relay access denied (in reply to RCPT TO command) In my dovecot log file i have these errors : --------------------- Nov 28 20:08:27 myhost postfix/smtpd[5087]: connect from smtp5-g21.toto.com [1.2.3.4] Nov 28 20:08:27 myhost postfix/smtpd[5087]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from smtp5-g21.toto.com [1.2.3.4]: 554 5.7.1 <mymail(a)test.com>: Relay access denied; from=<outside-mail(a)toto.com> to=<mymail(a)test.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<smtp5-g21.toto.com> Nov 28 20:08:28 myhost postfix/smtpd[5087]: disconnect from smtp5-g21.toto.com [1.2.3.4] ---------------------- What do you think is the problem ?

[Dovecot] Postfix issue but I want to fix it here...
by david＠davidwbrown.name 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Hello, Dovecot bunch and Timo. I am using Sylpheed as my Dovecot/IMAP client. At home behind my LAN Sylpheed can send email because the Postfix SMTPd views my LAN as a trusted network. No such luck when I'm away from home. I know it has something to do with configuring the relay access elements but what I have tried so far does not work. I'm sure someone has had this simple issue previously. The error condition and other particulars follow: OS: CentOS, Windows XP SMTPd: Postfix 2.3.3 IMAP: Dovecot 1.2 Mail client: Sylpheed 2.7.1 Error condition: Error occurred while sending the message: 554 5.7.1 <messages-noreply(a)linkedin.com>: Relay access denied

[Dovecot] Dovecot SSL limitations
by Thomas Hummel 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Hello Timo, I'd like to check if my understanding of dovecot-1.2.x's SSL certificate handling is correct : SSL does not provide the server any mechanism to choose which certificate it must send relatively to the name the client is using. Thus, if you want to use different certificates, you have to listen to different addresses. This is an SSL limitation, not a dovecot nor IMAP limitation. This is the reason why it's possible to use different certificates for IMAP and POP3. But it seems to work only with those two : As a matter of fact, even if you listen to different addresses, how would you tell dovecot to send this certificate for this address and that certificate for that address, since there is no IP dependent section (as in apache IP-based virtual host for instance) ? It seems the only way would be to have more than one instance of dovecot (several dovecot with different config files). The problem is that some clients may be configured with mail.my.domain, some others with imap.my.domain, ...etc... Hence the need to have different certificates with those different names as cn. -- Thomas Hummel | Institut Pasteur <hummel(a)pasteur.fr> | Pôle informatique - systèmes et réseau

Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2.x masteruser proxy problem
by Tom Mihalicek 30 Nov '09

The problem was in auth_bind=yes in dovecot-ldap.conf i didnt read thoroughly the http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers?action=show&redirect=Mas… You should also add the pass=yes setting to the master passdb if possible. It means that Dovecot verifies that the login user really exists before allowing the master user to log in. Without the setting if a non-existing login username is given, depending on the configuration, it could either return an internal login error (the userdb lookup failed) or create a whole new user (with eg. static userdb). pass=yes doesn't work with PAM or LDAP with auth_bind=yes, because both of them require knowing the user's password.

[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2.x masteruser proxy problem
by Tom Mihalicek 30 Nov '09

30 Nov '09

Greetings to all I need a masteruser/proxy account for some applications to be implemented and i am having some problems. Normal users are proxyied through ldap queries to the remote machine and this is working like it sopose to, but i can't make the master user to work. Below are both the dovecot.conf and dovecot-ldap.conf and verbose logs on the proxy machine.

[Dovecot] /var/run/dovecot mode 750 too tight
by Frank Cusack 30 Nov '09

dovecot-1.2.8 creates /var/run/dovecot mode 750. I run postfix+dovecot in a virtual user setup. Postfix calls deliver as user vmail group vmail. Nov 29 12:53:04 imap.invalid dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.error] deliver(frank): userdb lookup: connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Permission denied (euid=500(vmail) egid=500(vmail) missing +x perm: /var/run/dovecot) I will say this: dovecot's error reporting in general is head and shoulders above the norm. Makes tracking down problems sooo much easier. Something else I noticed, should the dict-server socket really be mode 777? At least a-x I would think. -frank

[Dovecot] Everytime I start my mail client it downloads all message again!
by BeKi 28 Nov '09

Hello, I use Xdove 1.2 on my ts-409 together with IMAP/dovecot. I like to see the same folder structure on my different workstation (private/work ...). I move the mails into the folder structure I created. That works fine. But since I use Xdove with IMAP I have the problem that my mailclient loads all mails I already stored in different folders again into the INBOX (some mails also multiple with subfolders). These mails are duplicates (or multiples) because I delete them all. The mails in my folders are still there. Up to now I tried different mail clients. Thunderbird 2.x/3.x, Pegasus 4.5, Outlook Express. All behave the same way, so I think it must have something to do with the server. Maybe one of you heard about this and can give me hints where to look for. Which configuration files shall I post to help debug? Thanks, Bernd
