[Dovecot] Driving quota out of a database.
by David Craigon 06 Mar '07

06 Mar '07

Hi there, I'm using postgres as a userdb for dovecot. I'm am trying to get the quota plugin to work. I have a column in my table that returns the quota in KB. I am using the postgres expression "('maildir:storage=' || mailstore_control.mailbox.quota) AS quota" as recommended in the manuals. This expression is NULL to start with, which I take to mean unlimited quota. Trouble is, if I change it to a value, and then change it back to null, I don't seem to go back to unlimited quota. I'm … [View More]

[Dovecot] Replacing qmail + vpopmail with: sendmail + dovecot
by Oliver Schulze L. 06 Mar '07

06 Mar '07

Hi, I wonder if it posible to replace qmail + vpopmail with sendmail + dovecot? The idea is like this: - use sendmail + milter API to filter spam/virus and deliver the email to the dovevot MDA (LDA) - dovecot should save the email to the directory as specified in the vpopmail DB - maintain the vpopmail BD (users + passwd) - use dovecot pop3/imap for the clients - use sendmail again to receive the email from the pop3/imap users and deliver the email to the internet as usual. Anyone has … [View More]

[Dovecot] MBOX to MAILDIR conversion
by Marc Perkel 05 Mar '07

05 Mar '07

Thinking about going from mbox to maildir. Started with mbox way back when but thinking about making the conversion. The main reason is that I use rsync for backups and when these huge mailboxes are touched I have to copy the whole thing. With maildir I only copy the files that change. So - my questions is - what's the easiest way to make this happan. I assume there are conversion utilities. I'm using Exim as an MTA. Also - using Ext3 for the file system on a Raid 10 array.

[Dovecot] Dovecot ignoring Quotas
by Frank Doege 03 Mar '07

03 Mar '07

Hi, i have installed the dovecot 1.0rc25 and everything is working well. I have connected it to a postgresql database. Now to my little problem: Postfix is delivering into a maildir folder with active maildirquota patches, and this is working well. The problem is only that dovecot is not recognizing the maildirquota file at all. I have configured it as in the documentation with Plugin { Quota=maildir } Anyone any idea ? maybe this is a bug ? Thanks

[Dovecot] automaticly move expunded emails to trash Folder
by Wilfried BARNAVON (Perso) 03 Mar '07

03 Mar '07

Hi I try to migrate from courier to Dovecot. Is there a way to get the same behaviour of Courier-imap with dovecot, about expunged emails ? I though about using the Lazy-Expunge plugin. The problem with this plugin is the following: messages are moved and set to be deleted in the Trash Folder. I would like they weren't set to be deleted. Is there a way to mitigate the behaviour of this plugin, or is there another plugin having this task in charge ? Thanks Wilfried BARNAVON

[Dovecot] Struggle with Postfix/Dovecot-auth and SASL
by Ingo Reimann 03 Mar '07

03 Mar '07

Hi List, I just updated an old sendmail installation to a modern postfix/dovecot system with mysql backend. Everything works fine but SMTP-AUTH fails with some clients. The problem is, that with PLAIN (old) clients send the base64 coded form: USERNAME\0USERNAME\0PASSWORD which, as i understand dovecot interprets as MASTERUSER\0USERNAME\PASSWORD. New clients send \0USERNAME\0PASSWORD which works fine. I don`t like to use masterusers, because then everyone would be able to log in as someone … [View More]

[Dovecot] Stopping certain users from using IMAP, or POP3, etc.
by David Craigon 02 Mar '07

Hi there, I'm building a mail system for an ISP. We want to be able to turn on or off IMAP or POP3 access for certain customers- basically we want to be able to offer a customer POP3 access, unless they pay us some more money, in which case they get IMAP The username and password will remain the same, and are driven out of a postgres database. The best way I've though of doing this so far is by defining separate auth systems for IMAP and POP. Is this the best way? A gold star is … [View More]

[Dovecot] Deleting when Over Quota

Hi All, I've read a bit about this but don't really see a full solution anywhere. Has anyone actually got a good fix for this? Telling a user they are over quota then not allowing them to delete anything does seem the height of perversion. =) Question is - is this even a problem for the IMAP server? Or should the MUA be detecting over quota problems and then issuing the right commands to delete messages WITHOUT the copy to Trash? Lastly - even if it is the MUA's responsibility - will … [View More]

I am still having issues with new message count. When I move a message to another folder, it counts that message as new until you go into that folder. Is there a way I can solve this? Could it have something to do with NFS? I have tried all the NF workarounds with no luck... I have also tried NFSv3 and NFSv4, no difference. I store the indexes on the local drive...

[Dovecot] Event on Logout

Hi, @all! Is it possible, with Dovecot, to do something (eg: an SQL-Query) when the User logs out (POP3) or do some action (IMAP)? My problem is to notify a DB when the user logs out or delete E-Mail (in this case, just for IMAP). Thanks for your answer!

[Dovecot] How to Prevent IMAP Folders being moved, deleted or renamed
by FreeStyle 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Hello I use exim/dovecot combination for mail delivery and pickup and I'm wondering how I can prevent users from moving, deleting or renaming particular IMAP folders. I use the MailDir mailbox format. The reason for doing this is that I have some special exim filters which deliver mail to specified directories. I don't want users to be able to change these folders because it will mess up the filtering. Also my mail client (Thunderbird) doesn't check the filter folders automatically is … [View More]

[Dovecot] Force "lower case" Folder Creation?
by Rich, Whidbey Telecom 28 Feb '07

28 Feb '07

We're exploring the use of "plus addressing" in our MTA (Exim), which delivers "user+topic(a)domain.com" to a user's "topic" folder. However, the case-sensitive nature of our ext3 filesystem means that a message destined to "topic" won't deliver to a user's "Topic" folder. For example, if a user creates a "Topic" folder, and gives "user+Topic(a)domain.com" to a web form that lower-cases it, delivery is deferred. Although we're checking to see if Exim can workaround this, is there … [View More]

Is there a way to have messages marked to be deleted move to the trash folder automatically? I have moved from courier-imap (which dovecot performs muck better) but the one feature I really need is move to trash. Is there any plugins available for this?

Dovecot's end of the bargain requires a dirty little script to set TCPREMOTEIP based on the arguments passed from imap-login: #!/bin/sh TCPREMOTEIP=`echo "$@" | sed -e 's|.* ||' -e 's|]$||'` export TCPREMOTEIP exec "$@" And this (long) line in dovecot.conf: mail_executable: envdir /etc/relay-ctrl /usr/local/bin/relay-ctrl- chdir /usr/local/bin/dovecot-settcpremoteip /usr/local/bin/relay-ctrl- allow /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/… [View More]

[Dovecot] stability?
by K. Clair 28 Feb '07

28 Feb '07

Hi, I'm having trouble figuring this out from any of the documentation or website pages: is dovecot v1.0 considered to be stable, or is it still testing/beta? If the latter, is there any timeline for a "stable" release? Thanks, Kristina

[Dovecot] Migrating to dovecot: non-empty mboxes
by Alexander Shikoff 28 Feb '07

28 Feb '07

Hello, I migrate from cucipop to dovecot. Thus I move users' mailboxes (mbox format) to another location. Some POP3 client (for example Outlook or TheBat!) use flag 'Do not delete messages from server'. After the user's mailbox have been moved to a new location all old messages is retrieved again and user get duplicates. Is there a way to avoid such issue? Thanks a lot! -- Kind Regards, Alexander Shikoff minotaur(a)crete.org.ua

I don't think this was touched from 23 to 24... Also, 24 hasn't hit the FreeBSD ports tree yet, so I'm not certain what would break if I built it manually... --J > On Tue, 27 Feb 2007 14:19:45 -0800 (PST) > chandler.lists(a)chapman.edu wrote: > >> Anyone have a suggestion of what >> to adjust? > > rc24? > > -- > > Brian Morrison > > bdm at fenrir dot org dot uk > > "Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in the mud; > … [View More]

[Dovecot] dovecot-auth (1.0rc24) on Solaris seems broken.
by Stephen Usher 28 Feb '07

28 Feb '07

I've trying to get dovecot-auth to talk to exim and have been running debugging on both sides. I've added the line: i_info("auth_client_input: client disconnected: %s", strerror(errno)); just after the "case -1" in the first switch statement in: auth-client-connection.c: auth_client_input() and get this in the logs: dovecot: Feb 27 13:35:09 Info: auth(default): auth_client_input: client disconnected: Illegal seek Now, on the exim end if I don't have the i_info() call in the routine … [View More]

[Dovecot] Capability dropping support patch
by David 28 Feb '07

28 Feb '07

Hi, A week ago I submitted an early patch, please ignore it. The patch attached to this email has been tested and seems to work for me. I have also attached instead of inline to solve problems with spaces/tabs. The patch will, on systems that have libcap support, drop capabilities that Dovecot doesn't need. For example there is no need for CAP_SYS_MODULE, which enables module loading or CAP_SYS_PTRACE/CAP_SYS_ADMIN/etc. If libcap isn't installed then nothing will change, this … [View More]

[Dovecot] Dovecot rc23 and rc24 freeze after authentication
by Garret Huntress 27 Feb '07

27 Feb '07

I had our production systems running on rc23, however we ran into problems when the server was under heavy load. Eventually, the server would begin to freeze all imap connection after authentication (according to the logs). A user would connect, authentication would succeed, and then the connection would sit until timing out. No error logs were produced. Upgrading to rc24 did not resolve the issue, but reverting to rc22 has. -Garret -- Garret W. Huntress System Administrator / … [View More]

Re: [Dovecot] Solaris problem & exim. Please ignore it.
by Stephen Usher 27 Feb '07

27 Feb '07

Please ignore my previous question.. as it turns out it's a bug/feature of fprintf(3C) and sockets under Solaris. Exim was using fprintf to output the AUTH string and for some unknown reason it was hanging, possibly because the input buffer on the file stream wasn't empty or something. After modifying the Exim's dovecot authentication plug-in to use write(2) instead of fprintf(3C) it miraculously worked!

[Dovecot] lstats on all files in Maildir when opening an e-mail.
by Tan Shao Yi 27 Feb '07

27 Feb '07

Hi, I'm running RC19 on a Solaris 10 SPARC box. It seems that whenever I open an e-mail in any folder via IMAP, dovecot appears to scan every other folder in the Maildir. A truss reveals that it is lstat-ing every e-mail in every directory. I'm sorry I am sending only a fragment of the truss, it's really too long... but is this behaviour expected? Cheers, Tan Shao Yi lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/new/1170337156.M209211P18431V025055F0I0000DAF0_0.… [View More]recess1,S=2596", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/new/1170337594.M159985P18549V025055F0I0001891B_0.recess1,S=4111", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/new/1170338379.M564254P18933V025055F0I000196A3_0.recess1,S=3630", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/new/1170344035.M859029P24106V025055F0I000198E4_0.recess1,S=4254", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/new/1170344816.M69242P24829V025055F0I000199CB_0.recess1,S=3810", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/new/1170347789.M408186P27905V025055F0I00019A8F_0.recess1,S=3922", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/new/1170378895.M589722P25748V025055F0I00019279_0.recess1,S=2782", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/new/1170380726.M524353P29456V025055F0I0001AEE1_0.recess1,S=3619", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/new/1170381420.M702545P517V025055F0I0001B208_0.recess1,S=3028", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 getdents64(8, 0xFEE72000, 8192) = 0 close(8) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test(a)pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/maildirfolder", 0xFFBFF148) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test(a)pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/cur", 0xFFBFF148) = 0 openat(-3041965, "/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test(a)pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/cur", O_RDONLY|O_NDELAY|O_LARGEFILE) = 8 fcntl(8, F_SETFD, 0x00000001) = 0 fstat64(8, 0xFFBFEEE8) = 0 getdents64(8, 0xFEE72000, 8192) = 1088 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/cur/1169092926.M656431P6118V04010002I000023E9_0.recess1,S=4701:2,S", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 lstat64("/var/qmail/maildirs/AA/AA/test@pacific.net.sg/Maildir/.qmail/cur/1168983168.M76366P8906V04010002I000027AB_0.recess1,S=2345:2,S", 0xFFBFF040) = 0 [View Less]
