[Dovecot] Problem with namespaces
by Tim Bishop 16 Oct '08

16 Oct '08

[1.1.4 with http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/b61424a50786 applied] I'm trying to use namespaces as described here for UW-IMAP compatibility: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces But I'm getting a problem with the hidden namespaces showing up in the LIST output. Here is a simplified transcript. The ~/Mail folder contains just two folders. The config given to imapd is as follows: MAIL=mbox:/home/cut/jru2/Mail:INBOX=/home/cut/jru2/.mail:INDEX=/var/state/dovecot-indexes/jru2 NAMESPACE_1=mbox:/home/cut/jru2/Mail:INBOX=/home/cut/jru2/.mail:INDEX=/var/state/dovecot-indexes/jru2 NAMESPACE_1_INBOX=1 NAMESPACE_1_LIST=1 NAMESPACE_1_PREFIX= NAMESPACE_1_SEP=/ NAMESPACE_1_SUBSCRIPTIONS=1 NAMESPACE_1_TYPE=private NAMESPACE_2=mbox:/home/cut/jru2/Mail:INBOX=/home/cut/jru2/.mail:INDEX=/var/state/dovecot-indexes/jru2 NAMESPACE_2_HIDDEN=1 NAMESPACE_2_LIST=0 NAMESPACE_2_PREFIX=mail/ NAMESPACE_2_SEP=/ NAMESPACE_2_SUBSCRIPTIONS=0 NAMESPACE_2_TYPE=private I would expect the second namespace not to be listed. But it is: in: 2 LIST "" "*" 3 LOGOUT out: * OK [RAWLOG TIMESTAMP] 2008-10-16 15:41:40 * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "folder" * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "test" * LIST (\NoInferiors \Marked) "/" "INBOX" * LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "mail" * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "mail/folder" * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "mail/test" 2 OK List completed. * BYE Logging out 3 OK Logout completed. That's with hidden turned on, and the list option turned off. Am I missing something with my config? Tim. -- Tim Bishop http://www.bishnet.net/tim/ PGP Key: 0x5AE7D984

[Dovecot] Virtual Domains and Master Users

Can I have a master users list for each virtual domain? I'm not sure from what I read on the page: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers auth default { mechanisms = plain login CRAM-MD5 passdb passwd-file { args = /var/mail/vhosts/%d/passwd.masterusers master = yes pass = yes } passdb passwd-file { args = username_format=%n /var/mail/vhosts/%d/passwd } userdb passwd-file { args = username_format=%n /var/mail/vhosts/%d/passwd } ... } TIA, Rod --

[Dovecot] dovecot 1.2: dict no longer really support DICT_ITERATE_FLAG_RECURSE
by Bernhard Herzog 16 Oct '08

16 Oct '08

Hi, In dovecot 1.1, I could use DICT_ITERATE_FLAG_RECURSE when iterating over a dict to retrieve all entries that start with a given prefix. This doesn't seem to work anymore in the new dict implementation in dovecot 1.2. Looking at the SQL queries actually generated, it seems as if dovecot 1.1 used to generate queries that use pattern matching (key LIKE "my/prefix/%") whereas dovecot 1.2 does not, so it's no wonder that it doesn't work in 1.2. This probably has to do with the pattern matching for dict keys in the config file. It would be enough for my purposes at the moment -- i.e. getting the metadata plugin to work with dovecot 1.2 -- if recursion were only possible for the last of fields in the pattern.

[Dovecot] dovecot 1.1.4 maildir imap segfault in message_parse_header_next
by Diego Liziero 16 Oct '08

16 Oct '08

I've tried to stress test dovecot 1.1.4 with imaptest for days without any assertion failure or crash. Just some "got too little data" messages. So far it's the most stable 1.1.x version.

[Dovecot] deliver does not work with new shared namespaces in dovecot 1.2

Hi Timo, checking my new userdb-checkpassword back end is stumbled across the fact, that the new shared namespace definitions possible in dovecot stop deliver from working. The log says: Oct 15 14:37:43 burlywood3 <info> deliver(2(a)burlywood3.rgb)[24502]: Namespace: type=shared, prefix=users/%%u/, sep=/, inbox=no, hidden=no, list=no, subscriptions=no Oct 15 14:37:43 burlywood3 <error> deliver(2(a)burlywood3.rgb)[24502]: Namespace 'users/': shared: Shared namespace prefix contains unknown variables Oct 15 14:37:43 burlywood3 <critical> deliver(2(a)burlywood3.rgb)[24502]: Fatal: Namespace initialization failed I guess the primary (only?) case where these shared namespaces are needed for delivery is the use of sieve. cheers sascha -- Sascha Wilde OpenPGP key: 4BB86568 http://www.intevation.de/~wilde/ http://www.intevation.de/ Intevation GmbH, Neuer Graben 17, 49074 Osnabrück; AG Osnabrück, HR B 18998 Geschäftsführer: Frank Koormann, Bernhard Reiter, Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner

[Dovecot] Ignore prefix given by client?
by Tim Bishop 15 Oct '08

15 Oct '08

Hi all, I'm new to Dovecot, but so far I've been really impressed with what I've seen. I hope someone can help with the following question. We're migrating from a setup where some of our users use mbox with UW imap. The problem is we've never enforced a folder prefix, so some have their folders in ~/, others in ~/mail and others in ~/Mail. We've also got some users using maildir with Courier imap. I decided the easiest way to get this working transparently for the users was to use the post-login scripting approach. My script manages to locate the user's mail and sets MAIL accordingly. This all works a treat. The problem is when a user specifies their own prefix in their mail client (if it's blank there are no problems). If they have ~/Mail none of the folders show up. I've had a play with namespaces in an attempt to fix that, but it doesn't seem to be doing what I want. So my question is: is it possible for Dovecot to simply ignore the folder prefix given by the client? Thanks, Tim. -- Tim Bishop http://www.bishnet.net/tim/ PGP Key: 0x5AE7D984

[Dovecot] Multiple IMAP connections.
by Roderick A. Anderson 15 Oct '08

15 Oct '08

There is a project (catmail) to build a webmail front end using the Catalyst Framework and the question came up about multiple connections per user. Specifically the question was: "The IMAP server can support multiple connections, but do you think the backend should support multiple connections for separate folders or one IMAP connection for one session?" Since my servers are too low volume to have hit any kind of resource limits, and I believe Thunderbird mostly does the "Right Thing", I'm asking how you, that have higher volume systems, would prefer connections handled. Also I believe there was a thread, or two :-), on the way some of the other webmail programs handle connections. Not good? Thanks for all insights and suggestions. Rod --

[Dovecot] Bug: MODSEQ FETCH return (?)
by Michael M. Slusarz 15 Oct '08

15 Oct '08

Hi Timo - hope things are well :) Playing around with the CONDSTORE (RFC 4551) stuff while testing the IMAP lib I am writing and I think I have found a bug in Dovecot 1.2. RFC 4551 [4] identifies the FETCH response to a MODSEQ request as follows: fetch-mod-resp = "MODSEQ" SP "(" permsg-modsequence ")" with 'permsg-modsequence' defined as: permsg-modsequence = mod-sequence-value ;; per message mod-sequence Unfortunately, Dovecot 1.2 is returning as follows: S: * 1 FETCH (UID 1 MODSEQ 3 FLAGS (\Flagged \Deleted \Recent)) Where, under the RFC, I believe it should be: S: * 1 FETCH (UID 1 MODSEQ (3) FLAGS (\Flagged \Deleted \Recent)) Here is a proposed patch (WARNING: my C skills = zero): # HG changeset patch # User root(a)bigworm.curecanti.org # Date 1224040830 21600 # Branch HEAD # Node ID 0c0615bc6bf74ccf109049e251a30b8ab5f8ea67 # Parent 40df4d4cced09fa72d37581d0c526416d2c6e3de per RFC 4551, MODSEQ FETCH responses need to be wrapped in (). diff -r 40df4d4cced0 -r 0c0615bc6bf7 src/imap/imap-fetch.c --- a/src/imap/imap-fetch.c Tue Oct 14 14:52:44 2008 +0300 +++ b/src/imap/imap-fetch.c Tue Oct 14 21:20:30 2008 -0600 @@ -749,7 +749,7 @@ modseq = mail_get_modseq(mail); if (ctx->client->highest_fetch_modseq < modseq) ctx->client->highest_fetch_modseq = modseq; - str_printfa(ctx->cur_str, "MODSEQ %llu ", + str_printfa(ctx->cur_str, "MODSEQ (%llu) ", (unsigned long long)modseq); return 1; } Hope this helps/is correct. michael

[Dovecot] Search results as virtual folders
by Daniel L. Miller 15 Oct '08

15 Oct '08

This may have been asked before - if so I apologize. Some mail clients - like Thunderbird - can provide a virtual folder or "saved search" to provide a list of mails that match certain criteria. Obviously, unless special client-side caching is implemented - which Thunderbird (my own client of choice) - does not, generation of these folders take time. Does Dovecot have any provision for generating such virtual folders? Possibly as the result of a sieve script? -- Daniel

14 Oct '08

Greetings, I'm building a new 1.1.x-series Dovecot installation, and I have a problem setting up compatibility namespaces intended to handle old client-side settings. (See also: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces#head-0f3ab5ecab632eb517866c3508021e0605d…) I have produced a slightly cut-down example configuration which demonstrates the problem: # dovecot -n # 1.1.3: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf protocols: imap imaps pop3 pop3s ssl_cert_file(default): /etc/ssl/certs/imap.pem ssl_cert_file(imap): /etc/ssl/certs/imap.pem ssl_cert_file(pop3): /etc/ssl/certs/pop.pem ssl_key_file(default): /etc/ssl/private/imap.key ssl_key_file(imap): /etc/ssl/private/imap.key ssl_key_file(pop3): /etc/ssl/private/pop.key disable_plaintext_auth(default): yes disable_plaintext_auth(imap): yes disable_plaintext_auth(pop3): no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3-login login_max_processes_count: 1024 max_mail_processes: 32768 verbose_proctitle: yes first_valid_uid: 100 mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: mbox:~/IMAP:INBOX=~/.email:INDEX=/data/dovecot-indexes/%1u/%u mmap_disable: yes mail_nfs_storage: yes mail_nfs_index: yes mail_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugins(default): zlib quota imap_quota mail_plugins(imap): zlib quota imap_quota mail_plugins(pop3): mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/pop3 imap_client_workarounds(default): delay-newmail outlook-idle tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(imap): delay-newmail outlook-idle tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(pop3): pop3_uidl_format(default): %08Xu%08Xv pop3_uidl_format(imap): %08Xu%08Xv pop3_uidl_format(pop3): %08Xv%08Xu namespace: type: private separator: / inbox: yes list: yes subscriptions: yes namespace: type: private separator: / prefix: Mail/ location: mbox:~/Mail:INDEX=/data/dovecot-indexes/%1u/%u hidden: yes subscriptions: yes namespace: type: private separator: / prefix: ~/Mail/ location: mbox:~/Mail:INDEX=/data/dovecot-indexes/%1u/%u hidden: yes subscriptions: yes auth default: mechanisms: gssapi gss-spnego plain passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd plugin: quota: fs:Disk Quota Given this configuration, a Thunderbird client using a folder prefix of Mail/ is successfully able to enumerate (and access) non-INBOX folders: 5 list "" "Mail/%" * LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "Mail/archive"^M * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "Mail/Trash"^M 5 OK List completed.^M 6 list "" "Mail/%/%" * LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "Mail/archive/"^M * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "Mail/archive/INBOX-2008-10"^M * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "Mail/archive/INBOX-2008-09"^M [...] 6 OK List completed.^M 7 list "" "INBOX" * LIST (\NoInferiors \UnMarked) "/" "INBOX"^M 7 OK List completed.^M 8 list "" "Mail/archive" * LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" "Mail/archive"^M 8 OK List completed.^M ...

Through experimentation, it appears that Dovecot 1.1.x doesn't correctly handle namespaces that *begin* with the character '~'; using ~ in the middle of a prefix, e.g. "flibble~/Mail", worked as documented, leading me to suspect a bug in the ~-expansion handling of Dovecot. (Dovecot 1.0.x worked as expected in this configuration.) Unfortunately, an hg bisect run on recent Dovecot-1.1 versions didn't expose the offending commit that introduced this problem, so this bug (assuming it is a bug) was probably inadvertently introduced during the 1.1-development series. Can anyone suggest where in the source tree I should start looking to correct this behaviour? Cheers, David -- David McBride <dwm(a)tastycake.net>

[Dovecot] Get an extra_field in login process
by Alexandre Estanislau 14 Oct '08

14 Oct '08

Hi. I have an auth plugin where an extra_field is filled. Somewhere, in login process I need to log the authentication command and the extra_field, I was trying to do it in login-common/client-common.c, adding a new variable to login_log_format_elements and trying to get the fileld from environment, but, I could not find any way to do it, the getenv returns null everytime. Anyone can suggest something to do it ? Is there a way that I get the extra_fields from request in login process ?

[Dovecot] Multiple mailboxes per user
by spam＠wilysloth.com 13 Oct '08

13 Oct '08

My users currently have mail delivered to mulitple MailDir locations via procmail. ~/mail/inbox/ ~/mail/graph/ ~/mail/spam/ I would like all these mailboxes to be exported via dovecot IMAP and appear as folders. However, I can't anything beyond the INBOX working. My approach is via 'namespaces'.

However, selecting 'graph' I see: y:Exit c:Chdir m:Mask ?:Help 1 IMAP ../ ...I would have expected it to open the 'graph' MailDir mailbox and display the mail.

[Dovecot] client certs with godaddy ssl cert
by Harondel J. Sibble 13 Oct '08

13 Oct '08

I've read the client ssl cert section in the wiki and it talks about using a self signed cert, if I am using a commercial cert, in this case godaddy, how do I implement a self signed cert for the client side and have dovecot make use of this? I know the mechanics of setting up the self signed ca, the question is more what configuration changes do I need to make in dovecot to handle both godaddy and the self signed ca functionality?

[Dovecot] Can I translate the userid to match the UW-POP3 server?
by Albert E. Whale 12 Oct '08

12 Oct '08

OK, I have been running the UW-POP3 server which currently translates all login ids as lowercase (i.e. Anthony becomes anthony). Now the Dovecot server is very flexible and currently I have not found how to translate the upper case characters to lowercase. What configuration setting will translate the userids to lowercase? -- Albert E.

[Dovecot] Different authentication for pop3 and imap
by sh1ny 12 Oct '08

12 Oct '08

Is it possible to run different authentications for pop3 and imap ? What i need is to give access to some clients to pop3 only and to other to imap only. I'm using postgres as a backend. What i actually need is 2 separate queries for userdb, one to select with "WHERE imap_access = 1" and the other one with "WHERE pop3_access = 1" ( that's just an example ). I'm using 1.1.2 but i plan on upgrading to either 1.1.4 or 1.2.

[Dovecot] Password scheme module thoughts?
by Ian R. Justman 11 Oct '08

11 Oct '08

Hi, all. I have successfully deployed the code I wrote to handle Post.Office password hashes. However, I had to implement it as a hack to password-scheme.c. I'd like to implement it as a module so I don't have to hack Dovecot whenever a new release comes out. However, I had a few thoughts: 1. I used Dovecot's own MD5 routines in my implementation because I know how they behave. However, would it make sense to distribute the C sources for the MD5 routines, or would it make far more sense to have a Dovecot build tree already (so I can use Dovecot's function library)? 2. Is there good documentation for Dovecot's plugin API? I need it so I can figure out how to write the parts which the main program call so then the code can be used as a plugin. Thanks! --Ian. -- Ian R. Justman UNIX hacker. Anime fan. Any questions? ianj (at) ian-justman.com

Dear sirs Thank you and congratulations for creating Dovecot. When a message header is split along several lines, it seems only the first one is parsed by sieve. The following header: From: "=?iso-8859-1?Q?Cotiatododia=20-=20O=20Jornal=20de=20Not=EDcias=20a=20Se?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?rvi=E7o=20de=20Cotia=20e=20Regi=E3o=2E?=" <newsletter(a)cotiatododia.com.br> was not discarded by the following rule (when it should have been due to "cotiatododia"): if anyof (header :contains ["From", "Reply-To", "To", "Cc"] ["cotiatododia", "ganhedinheiro.com", "1000deaths.com", "ione.correia", "nsbezerra", "estudenoexterior.com", "pestana(a)mauriciopestana.com.br", "institutojairmoura2(a)gmail.com", "webmaster(a)ie.org.br", "jahgor(a)jahgor.com.br", "marketing(a)mirostur.com.br"], header :contains "Subject" "E ai!, Essa voce Tem que Ver!") { discard; } Thank you, Dennis

[Dovecot] Switching Servers now can't retrieve mail

10 Oct '08

I have just switched my mail server. I have copied (I think) the config files from the old to new. Exim is work fine on the new machine as I can see email file showing up in /var/mail/lists/new . However, dovecot reports nothing when I check mail . I am have turn on logging on both machines and I do not see anything that looks like an error. I have also looked to see if the dovecot.conf file is compatible between 1.0.14 and 1.1.2 and have found little. I am guessing this is a simple problem, can someone tell me what I have done wrong here. I have provided Working dovecot -n from both machines and the log output from a mail fetch.

Hello I have a user that experience troubles with it's pop3 client (eudora) at random time/hour the dovecot server refuse the connection to his machine during several minutes then it restart normally to download its emails ... the message is like the following : dovecot: Oct 09 15:36:35 Info: pop3-login: Internal login failure (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<xxxxxxx>, method=PLAIN, rip=147.215.50.48, lip=147.215.1.3, TLS dovecot: Oct 09 15:41:35 Info: pop3-login: Internal login failure (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<xxxxxxx>, method=PLAIN, rip=147.215.50.48, lip=147.215.1.3, TLS dovecot: Oct 09 15:46:35 Info: pop3-login: Internal login failure (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<xxxxxxx>, method=PLAIN, rip=147.215.50.48, lip=147.215.1.3, TLS dovecot: Oct 09 15:51:35 Info: pop3-login: Internal login failure (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<xxxxxxx>, method=PLAIN, rip=147.215.50.48, lip=147.215.1.3, TLS dovecot: Oct 09 15:56:35 Info: pop3-login: Internal login failure (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<xxxxxxx>, method=PLAIN, rip=147.215.50.48, lip=147.215.1.3, TLS I run dovecot 1.1.4 (compiled on the machine) onto a debian etch 64 bits machine (IBM X3650) The passwd is memorized by the client so it is not a typo error of my (experienced) user who is a Computer science professor.

[Dovecot] maildri++ quota
by Ralf Hildebrandt 10 Oct '08

When is the maildir quota usages recalculated and written to the second line of the "maildirsize" file? I'm using 1.1.4, and I reset the quotas for my users by just taking the first line of their maildirsize file and deleting the rest. -- Ralf Hildebrandt (Ralf.Hildebrandt(a)charite.de) snickebo(a)charite.de Postfix - Einrichtung, Betrieb und Wartung Tel. +49 (0)30-450 570-155 http://www.arschkrebs.de I'm looking for a job "A man who won't die for something is not fit to live." -Martin Luther King, Jr.

[Dovecot] Test environment question
by Stewart Dean 09 Oct '08

09 Oct '08

My production DC machine owns the mail filesystems and is running DC V1.0.15 and mbox folder format. I am looking to test V1.1.3 on another machine, which NFS mounts the mail filesystems, but has its own local index FS. I have made this test environment my default connection in TBird, and it seems to work just fine. Also, I have made sure that my TBird client isn't connecting to the production server (it has multiple accounts but I have turned off the cehck for mail when starting and check for new mail every N minutes functions, and then check the ps table to make sure there are no imap connections) However, I'm seeing two errmsgs in the maillog on the test machine: > Sep 22 11:54:13 egg mail:err|error dovecot: IMAP(sdean): posix_fallocate() faile > d: Protocol not available > Sep 22 11:54:13 egg mail:err|error dovecot: IMAP(sdean): file_set_size() failed > with mbox file /var/spool/mail/sdean: Protocol not available which appear to happen AFTER mail arrives at the production server....it seems to happen on my test server the next time my client goes to access mail AFTER mail has arrived at the production server. Subsequent client requests of the test server execute without error until AFTER the next time mail arrives at and my inbox is updated with it. Again, if I hadn't looked at the logs, I wouldn't know there was a problem...I can see my new mail just fine from the test server. The questions: Is this anything I should be concerned about? Is this a bug or a legit problem coming from my improper use of two servers against the same data. FWIW, I am using fcntl for both mbox read and write locks. procmail in the MDA on the production server, and its locking hierarchy <dotlock,fcntl>, which Timo previously approved. Thanks!

[Dovecot] shared mailboxes in 1.2 question
by Robert Schetterer 09 Oct '08

09 Oct '08

Hi Timo, i tried a littel bit playing with shared mailboxes namespace shared { separator = / # %%u gets expanded to the remote user. Instead of %%u you can # also use %%n and %%d. prefix = "shared/" location = maildir:/usr/local/virtual/%d:CONTROL=/usr/local/virtual/%d:INDEX=/usr/local/virtual/%d inbox = no list = yes subscriptions = yes hidden = no } should at last show all other users mailboxes when .DEFAULT acl is authenticated lr and dovecot-acl in /usr/local/virtual/%d is authenticated lr too but instead only shared is shown in thunderbird playing with %%u etc in combinations does not lead to working results too (sometimes shared^^ was shown, might be user(a)domain.de isnt working for shared maildirs, @ could be a problem to maildir....?) your example was namespace shared { separator = / # %%u gets expanded to the remote user. Instead of %%u you can # also use %%n and %%d. prefix = shared/%%u/ location = Maildir:/home/%%u/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u } so something with acl might not working in 1.2 and i think i need more explanation ( examples ...) in using %%u %%d ... to test shared mailboxes there were no usefull log entries which would give some more advice during testing...so it might be my fault and it only config stuff i didnt understand -- Best Regards MfG Robert Schetterer Germany/Munich/Bavaria

[Dovecot] Maildir size report for imap?
by Mark Zealey 09 Oct '08

09 Oct '08

Hi guys, It would be really nice if there were an easy way to see how much space an individual imap account used when a user logged out; something like pop3_logout_format = size=%s. I appreciate that this isn't so easy in imap though - I was thinking of using the quota plugin with no limit or something like that.

[Dovecot] 1.1.4 and trouble over NFS
by Igor Colombi 09 Oct '08

09 Oct '08

Hello, I have some trouble with the current setup (it's a testing environment): 2 server with Dovecot 1.1.4 from source (OS Debian testing 2.6.26) (name: "exim" and "exim2") 1 NFS server (OS Debian testing 2.6.26) I use NFS v.4, indexes shared over NFS. The relavant part of Dovecot configuration: dotlock_use_excl = yes mail_nfs_storage = yes mail_nfs_index = yes mmap_disable = yes lock_method = dotlock Maildir format. /etc/exports on NFS server: /mnt 192.168.0.0/24(rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,fsid=0) /mnt/vexim 192.168.0.0/24(rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check) /etc/fstab on the clients: 192.168.0.71:/vexim /mnt/nfs1 nfs4 rw 0 0 When I access a mailbox with 2 different clients (for example Outlook Express that uses "exim" and Thunderbird that uses "exim2") and in the same time some message is delivered to the mailbox (the smtp is served by Exim 4.69) Dovecot has some trouble as you can see: *** Log from machine "exim" Oct 7 20:00:20 exim dovecot: IMAP(postmaster(a)minnie.tld):

safe. I can try to move indexes on the local disk, the trouble with dovecot.index disappear but I have again problem with dovecot-uidlist. I can reproduce this kind of problem easly: 2 clients on the same mailbox connected to two different imap server and a simple bash script that send 2 email every 1 second to the mailbox. There is some option/configuration that I can try to change?

[Dovecot] zlib plugin
by Luuk 09 Oct '08

09 Oct '08

hi, Could anyone give some info on this plugin? When i read the wiki (http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Zlib) i'm still left with some questions... I use Maildir to store my mails, if i enable this zlib-plugin, should i 'manually' compress all messages? or wil the uncompressed messages still be accessible by dovecot? wil new messages be compressed automagically? how should the compressed messages be named? a message now has the name '1223224520.2783_1.opensuse:2,S' how would a compressed message be named? ['1223224520.2783_1.opensuse:2,SZ' or '1223224520.2783_1.opensuse:2,S,Z' or ???] Last but not least, what gain will i have by using this plugin in combination with Maildir, or will it have more impact when mails are stored in mbox. -- Luuk $ dovecot --version dovecot version 1.1.1 $ uname -srpmio Linux 2.6.18.8-0.10-default x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

So now "Disable non webmail IMAP access" in vpopmail works fine!

[Dovecot] Folders within folders?
by ed beers 09 Oct '08

09 Oct '08

I'm trying to migrate my emails from an existing server (University of Washington IMAP toolkit) to dovecot. My clients are all using Thunderbird. I'm moving to a new Ubuntu based server (old one was Centos4) and selected dovecot solely because it was the default option. I'm not committed to it if it isn't the right tool for my application. My existing server allows hierarchical folders and these are used to organize 20 years worth of carefully sorted emails. I can create a new folders on the dovecot server but Thunderbird doesn't allow me to create new sub-folders within them. I think T-bird is configured OK since this works on the old server. Is this a dovecot limitation or have I configured it incorrectly?

[Dovecot] postfix/dovecot/mysql quotas not working, default dovecot.conf does.
by dovecot＠corwyn.net 08 Oct '08

08 Oct '08

I'm having problems getting dovecot to set imap quotas that are defined as individual quotas for virtual users using mysql. I'm using postfix/dovecot 1.1.3, just built from source about a week ago. I've been testing using telnet and getquotaroot. when I define the quota in dovecot.conf quota = dirsize quota_rule = *:storage=102400 I get the following response from Dovecot: # telnet 127.0.0.1 143 Connected to 127.0.0.1. * OK Dovecot ready. . login test222(a)example.com password . OK Logged in. . getquotaroot inbox * QUOTAROOT "inbox" "" * QUOTA "" (STORAGE 276273 102400) All is good (the mailbox IS currently very full as part of my testing). However, when I define that data in the dovecot-sql.conf file, it doesn't appear to pick the data up, either as an override, or, if I delete quota_rule = *:storage=102400 from dovecot.conf, I get no quota at all . getquotaroot inbox . OK No quota. # grep -v '^ *$#.*$\?$' dovecot-sql.conf driver = mysql connect = host=localhost dbname=postfix user=postfix password=password default_pass_scheme = MD5-CRYPT password_query = \ SELECT username, domain, password \ FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND domain = '%d' AND active = '1' user_query = \ SELECT 1015 as uid, 105 as gid, '/var/spool/mail/%d/%n' as home, \ 'maildir:/var/spool/mail/%d/%n/Maildir' as mail, \ 'dirsize' as quota, \ concat('*:storage=', quota, 'B') as quota_rule, \ FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND domain = '%d' and active = '1' the results remain the same in telnet. Any assistance would be appreciated. I've done a fair amount of digging, and have no idea why it's not working. ASsociated other configuration below. Thanks!

[Dovecot] Dovecot-sieve processing optimizations
by Roderick A. Anderson 08 Oct '08

08 Oct '08

I'm working at the next part of the virtual domains mail server. I'm moving this account (raanders(a)acm.org is a forwarder) which has a bunch of procmail rules to file into folders. My question is if it is more efficient is use? if { ... } elsif { ... } elsif { ... } else This seems to be the way many of the example scripts do it but I found at least one that used if { ... } if { ... } Which is more procmail like and for me reads easier. If not here where should I ask? Thanks, Rod --

So it's a bit less readable, I've to remember to disable sender restrictions in the content filter return transport to avoid filter loops, there will be one more line for each mail in the log stating that the filter is triggered, but apart from that it should work as I need. Thank you to everyone that helped me, tomorrow I'm going to test both methods. Regards, Diego.

[Dovecot] Virtual domain aliases
by Roderick A. Anderson 07 Oct '08

07 Oct '08

As I said in a previous reply the server is going great. In fact I can even send mail via it. (On the really old server I'm moving from I couldn't get authentication for outbound to work.) I now have a couple of small issues to deal with before moving completely off the old system. Virtual domains aliases? My reading seems to indicate that Postfix only handles aliases in one place/file. Ie., I can't use a /var/mail/vhosts/domain.tld/aliases. This is probably a Postfix question but I'm asking anyway. I am pretty sure there are some Postfix people-of-significance hanging out here. :-) Thanks, Rod --

[Dovecot] IMAP and SMTP Authentication

07 Oct '08

I'm a bit further along but haven't figured out why Authentication is still failing. I've tried a telnet to port 143 and openssl connection to 993. The command I issued, per the debugging page on the wiki, is: a login info(a)aesoft-sbcs.com crap Here is a snapshot from my logs (yup second try and blank lines to make it easier for me to read). Oct 7 08:17:20 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): client in: AUTH 2 PLAIN service=imap secured lip=216.64.180.226 rip=66.193.34.88 lport=993 rport=65026 resp=AGluZm9AYWVzb2Z0LXNiY3MuY29tAGNyYXA= Oct 7 08:17:20 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): passwd-file /var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/passwd: Read 3 users Oct 7 08:17:20 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): passwd-file(info(a)aesoft-sbcs.com,66.193.34.88): lookup: user=info(a)aesoft-sbcs.com file=/var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/passwd Oct 7 08:17:20 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): passwd-file(info(a)aesoft-sbcs.com,66.193.34.88): unknown user Oct 7 08:17:22 mx0 dovecot: auth(default): client out: FAIL 2 user=info(a)aesoft-sbcs.com And here is the relevant line from /var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/passwd info:{PLAIN}crap:5000:5000::/var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/info Yes there are three users in the file. What is puzzling me is why the source connection's IP is showing up in the /lookup/. I did not create the directory /var/mail/vhosts/aesoft-sbcs.com/info/Maildir Should I? I've attached the out put from postconf -n and dovecot -n since I'm pretty sure I've got some setting wrong. Thanks for any ideas or clues.
