[Dovecot] pop3 retr error
by Marten Lehmann 28 Jun '05

28 Jun '05

Hello, I'm getting the following error while Mozilla Mail is downloading >4000 emails: The RETR command did not succeed. Error retrieving message. Mail server xxx responded: Message is deleted. So what's the error? Can't I retrieve a message, that has been marked as deleted before? If the Mesage-ID wouldn't exist, the error message would be different. I don't know what Mozilla Mail is doing and on which message id it is failing. Also, there's no output in the logfiles. Any ideas? Regards Marten

[Dovecot] quetion about duplicate messages
by Michiel van Es 28 Jun '05

28 Jun '05

Hi, we recently switched from Imap-Uw to Dovecot as a pop3 server. I was wondering why people who have the flag 'Leave messages on server' in their email client (Outlook, Outlook Expres) that they receive duplicates of their stored mail? Is it because Dovecot doesn't know that the messages has already been popped by Imap Uw or is the email client which thinks there are new messages on the server and if so..how can I avoid this behaviour? Thanks in advance for any help. -- Kind Regards, Michiel

[Dovecot] [newbie question]to receive mail
by neo anderson 23 Jun '05

23 Jun '05

hi, i'm newbie to dovecot. lately i install postfix on a server for providing mail service. however, i encounter a problem in receiving mail, i.e., to get mail download to the remote client. (i'm able to send mail through mozilla client, but can't get the sent mail download to the client). what reasons may cause such problem? check several points that i suppose it may have problem, yet can't figure out where the problem may be resulted from. for instance, ========== telnet beg telnet target-server-ip 143 ... * OK dovecot ready. telnet target-server-ip 25 ... 220 host-name.domain.com ESMTP Postfix (ehlo localhost) <---------- hidden command i enter 250-host-name.domain.com 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 20971520 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-AUTH LOGIN GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250-AUTH=LOGIN GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 PLAIN 250 8BITMIME (quit) <---------- hidden command i enter 221 Bye telnet target-server-ip 110 .... +OK dovecot ready ========== telnet end btw, i'm able to read and write mail through mail program in the target server; simply can't get the mail downloaded to the other client with mozilla mail client (out look also doesn't work). mozilla mail client is version 1.7 . target server using centos 4.0. postfix 2.1.5 dovecot-0.99.11-2.EL4.1 i appreciate any help, sincerely. ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?

[Dovecot] miugrating mail to new server
by Gabe Granger 22 Jun '05

22 Jun '05

Hi All, I've just a new server to help with migration of our email, the old email server is using mbox and the new is using Maildir. I've managed to some user mail migrated fine. The new server is only a temp server as I have too many users to migrate easily in one go(Also I want to nuke the current mailserver, remove SuSE and install Debian on it). So what i'm doing it moving users one by one to temp server and converting to Maildir. My question is. I notice that all email files in maildir format end with .<host> when I go to migrate everything to back over to the original server is this going to cause me problem? Ie will the original server now have to be named the same as the temp server so that the maildir format files end with the same .<host> or does that not matter? Any help, advise would be great. Gabe

Hi, I am running Dovecot (dovecot-0.99.11-2.EL4.1 on centos 4) and we are switching from newer machines. I copied all usernames from /etc/passwd,/etc/group and /etc/shadow to the new machine.

[Dovecot] test73 not compiling with iconv?
by Sean Porter 22 Jun '05

22 Jun '05

I've recently upgraded from test53 to test73 from a source compile on FreeBSD 5.3, and am getting some [BADCHARSET] errors in 73 that I wasn't getting in 53 (specifically with Squirrelmail). When I run one of Squirrelmail's built-in filters, I get the following error: ERROR: Could not complete request. Query: SEARCH CHARSET ISO-8859-1 UNSEEN Subject {14} *****SPAM***** Reason Given: [BADCHARSET] Unknown charset Googling around, I found the admonition on the wiki about chrooted environments: http://wiki.dovecot.fi/moin.cgi/QuestionsAndAnswers#head- e146cada4e103a4a93a736998c64f23b1a8cd312 so I disabled all chroot directives in my config and ran as root, just to see if that was the error. No luck. When running configure with "./configure --with-mysql --with- storages=maildir --with-ssl=openssl", I noticed that I got this error regarding iconv: checking for iconv... no, consider installing GNU libiconv Oddly enough, I do have libiconv-1.9.2 installed in /usr/local: /usr/local/lib/libiconv.a /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so@ -> libiconv.so.3 /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.3 /usr/local/include/iconv.h and an iconv -l shows support for the charset in question. I tried adding the prefix directive to configure: ./configure --with-mysql --with-storages=maildir --with-ssl=openssl -- with-libiconv-prefix=/usr/local and got the same message. I presume that 53 picked up iconv headers and libraries from LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and now 73 isn't getting it even set explicitly -- I see some ChangeLog entries for iconv files in dovecot source in May, but nothing more. How can I verify that dovecot compiled with libiconv support? Anyone else see the same thing? Thanks, Sean

[Dovecot] GSSAPI support status
by Fredrik Tolf 20 Jun '05

20 Jun '05

Hi list! I'm wondering, what is the current status of GSSAPI (krb5) support in Dovecot? I know from googling that there used to be a patch for it around a year ago, but I haven't seen a trace of that patch ever since, and GSSAPI doesn't even seem to be mentioned in the Dovecot source tree (at least not according to "grep -irl"). Is GSSAPI planned at all, as it stands? If not, is there a way for me to get my hands on the original patch, so that I can fix it up for the current version of Dovecot? I'm eagerly waiting for the day that I can switch from UW-IMAP to Dovecot, but I don't want to until I can get GSSAPI authentication. Thanks for reading! Fredrik Tolf

[Dovecot] "Angle" address with empty "display name"
by Chris Wakelin 20 Jun '05

20 Jun '05

Some clients are sending from addresses like <someone(a)somewhere.org> i.e. without a "friendly" name. It seems to me from RFC2822 that you should either have "Display Name <someone(a)somewhere.org>" or just "someone(a)somewhere.org" (both without the quotes). Dovecot, not unreasonably, treats "<someone(a)somewhere.org>" as having an empty Display Name, but this seems to confuse at least one client - our webmail ;) - which then displays "?" for the "from" address. The patch below tries to make dovecot treat empty display name as non-existent display name (so that the IMAP "ENVELOPE" command responds with "NIL" instead of "" in the relevant places).

[Dovecot] MySQL user_query ignored

20 Jun '05

Hi all, i installed Dovecot 0.99.14. Everything works fine except that the mysql setup directive "user_query" seems to be ignored - however the password_query works. Instead the default user query in db-mysql.c always takes effect. Might this be a bug or is something worng wit my setup below? (To keep on working i changed the default query in db-mysql.c..) Helmut dovecot-mysql.conf: db_host = localhost #db_port = 3306 db_unix_socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock db = mail db_user = mail db_passwd = db_client_flags = 0 default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = SELECT password FROM users WHERE login = '%n' and domain='%d' user_query = SELECT '/var/mail/%d/%n' as home, 506 as uid, 100 as gid FROM users WHERE login = '%n' and domain='%d'

[Dovecot] dovecot.index.cache 1/3rd of INBOX size
by Chris Wakelin 17 Jun '05

17 Jun '05

I've noticed that my dovecot.index.cache file has got very large (24MB, which is more than 1/3 of my INBOX size). I've tried deleting (well, renaming) the dovecot.index.* files, and re-opening my INBOX, and the new dovecot.index.cache is only 90KB so far. I'm using dovecot-1.0-stable and mbox format. My mail_cache_fields and mail_never_cache_fields are set to the default. Looking back in the list archives, I found a message from Timo that suggested the cache entries are created for each message when the indexes are created, rather than when each message is accessed, so it ought not to grow? What happens when a message is deleted? I "strings/grep" ed through the dovecot.index.cache file and it looks like it's not caching any headers it shouldn't (like Received, X-Spam-XYZ etc.), but they seem to occur multiple times for each message. None of my other dovecot testers seem to have huge cache files (yet!). Anybody else seen this?

[Dovecot] Compressed maildir
by Curtis Maloney 17 Jun '05

17 Jun '05

Greetings, I noticed a while back someone posted a patch/plugin that allowed Dovecot to use compressed mbox files. I'm now wondering how far that would put us from having compressed maildir? I have a server with more CPU than disk space, and while I can buy more HDD space, my backup solution doesn't make that practical. It seems to me that when looking for a message file, if it ends in .gz unpack it, and otherwise everything acts as normal. Worst case, this is one strcat() and a stat() slower to find. Newly delivered messages could remain unpacked, and a cron job could come by whenever to compress old/large/un-looked-at-for-months messages. So, new and frequently referenced messages would be as fast as ever, and older messages would be slower. I would love to dive in an do this myself, but 1- my time is very very limited, working two jobs, and 2- I'm not running 1.0 yet, as it apparently still doesn't support my Thunderbird users tagging their messages (am I wrong? please tell me I'm wrong... I want to upgrade! :) -- Curtis Maloney cmaloney(a)cardgate.net

[Dovecot] small dovecot problem
by Cor Bosman 16 Jun '05

16 Jun '05

Hi all, just noticed a small problem in test70. If you have an mail in your maildir 'new' directory, and use another method to delete that email (for instance pop it through another pop server), dovecot will continue to report that email as being on the server. So if you had 1 email, delete it through pop, dovecot will continue to say that 1 email is on the server, even if you disconnect/reconnect.

[Dovecot] Dovecot and openmailadmin ?
by albi＠scii.nl 16 Jun '05

16 Jun '05

hi, wondered whether some people tried dovecot and openmailadmin ? http://www.openmailadmin.org "openMailAdmin is a little administration interface to IMAP mailservers." "openMailAdmin works with most of the popular MTAs, such as Postfix or Sendmail, and with almost every complete IMAP-server, i.e. Cyrus or Courier" a google-search didn't show any useful results so far, i'm just curious whether some people already tried it with dovecot (of course i can try it myself, but quite busy currently)

[Dovecot] customflags and keywords
by Curtis Maloney 16 Jun '05

16 Jun '05

OK. After checking the 0.99->1.0 migration documentation, it seems I've been a little confused between customflags and keywords. (Though this is partly due to my repeated requests for clarification being ignored.) The page (http://wiki.dovecot.org/moin.cgi/UpgradingDovecot) says 1.0 does not use .customflags any more. Now, I'm hoping they're still supported, in which case I'm curious to know where those details ARE stored? If 1.0 does support custom flags in a usable way, I'll migrate next week (with Andrey's gzip patch applied :) -- Curtis Maloney cmaloney(a)cardgate.net

Hmm. I remembered PAM wouldn't allow that, but looks like it does. Changed CVS version to support that now (non-tested though, but doesn't at least break the normal behavior).

[Dovecot] strip realms and force lowercasing of usernames?
by Dan Hollis 15 Jun '05

15 Jun '05

Is it possible for dovecot to strip realms and force lowercasing of usernames? We have a lot of dumb customers who try logging in to pop3 with crap like UsERNAmE and bla(a)nonexistentdomain.com. All our usernames are lowercase and we have no realms. Trying to get hundreds of customers to fix this is hard and is a significant and costly support burden. It would be nice if dovecot could handle this in some way. -Dan

[Dovecot] 1.0-test73
by Timo Sirainen 15 Jun '05

15 Jun '05

http://dovecot.org/test/ Two potentially dangerous changes: - mbox parser should now be able to handle CR+LF linefeeds. Hopefully doesn't break anything. - Some mail header parser changes. Hopefully doesn't break anything. And other stuff: - COPY shouldn't crash anymore with 64bit systems - If PAM modifies username, keep it - When auth workers died they leaked file descriptors in dovecot-auth - Auth workers were leaking memory for each request - Make MySQL connect abort in 10 seconds if it can't connect - 32bit UID/GIDs were truncated to 31bit value - dovecot-auth reports cache hits and misses on SIGUSR2

[Dovecot] master/config rewrite
by Timo Sirainen 15 Jun '05

15 Jun '05

I've finally got it to work, kind of .. It should allow you to log in, but several settings don't work yet and there are probably many bugs. Anyway, I thought I'd show this already in case someone is interested of looking how it works :) One thing I'm still wondering a bit is if I should show process names as: 32602 pts/19 S 0:00 dovecot/config 32603 pts/19 S 0:00 dovecot/log 32604 ? Ss 0:00 dovecot 32606 ? S 0:00 dovecot/imap-login 32607 ? S 0:00 dovecot/auth -s 3 Or if I should name the binaries all as dovecot-config, dovecot-log, etc. One nice thing with the above is that it also shows imap and imap-login processes while grepping for dovecot. You can get the tarball from http://dovecot.org/tmp/dovecot-1.0-test67-mrewrite.tar.gz (it has all the test73 changes despite the name..) Example configuration file (with bare minimals) is at http://dovecot.org/tmp/dovecot.conf I think I'll create a separate dovecot-master.conf for those service-blocks in the above config file (after I add include-directive to config file parser code). After the code is working better, I'll commit it to CVS and it'll be in future -test releases.

[Dovecot] Dovecot stable slow
by Loren M. Lang 15 Jun '05

15 Jun '05

A few days ago I installed dovecot stable to replace uw-imap. The install went well and all boxes were converted ok. When accessing the new imap server though, certain operations seem much slower, in particular, moving mail between boxes is very slow, and I have received several complaints from users that the mail server has slowed down. I can't figure out what the slow point is as maildir should be faster than mbox. -- I sense much NT in you. NT leads to Bluescreen. Bluescreen leads to downtime. Downtime leads to suffering.

[Dovecot] Pop-before-smtp issue
by Rob Kettle 14 Jun '05

14 Jun '05

Hi, I'm trying to use pop-before-smtp with Dovecot IMAP (not running pop3). Pop-before-smtp has fixes to work with the fact that Thunderbird holds the Dovecot Imap connection open and therefore doesn't record regular 'login' entries in maillog. Problem is that pop-before-smtp relies on Dovecot recording a disconnect in the maillog when an Imap client disconnects. Dovecot doesn't seem log disconnects. How can I get it to do this please ? Regards Rob -- This message has been scanned for viruses and other dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

[Dovecot] Quota

We're getting ready to set up a new mail server running dovecot 0.99.11 (CentOS 4) with maildir and filesystem quotas. I saw on the Dovecot web site that "hard filesystem quota can also be problematic." How problematic? What problems might we anticipate? Thanks. Josh Kelley

[Dovecot] Can't see existing mail folders
by Chris Green 14 Jun '05

14 Jun '05

I have installed dovecot version 0.99.11 on my Slackware 10.1 system recently and it basically works as expected. However I can't get it to 'see' existing mbox hierarchies. I have the following in dovecot.conf:- default_mail_env = mbox:/home/%u/Mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u (I also originally tried with %h/Mail) IMAP MUAs can see the INBOX OK but I can't get them to see any of the mail in $HOME/Mail. There certainly is lots of mail there, 250Mb or so of it, and a local mutt can see it without problems. Am I missing something obvious or will dovecot only see mail and folders that it's created itself? -- Chris Green (chris(a)areti.co.uk) "Never ascribe to malice that which can be explained by incompetence."

[Dovecot] Question regarding dovecot 0.99.14 & 1.0 stable
by Sebastiaan de Vogel 14 Jun '05

14 Jun '05

Hi all, For several day's now I've been attempting to get Dovecot working, but without much success so far. I've compiled both 0.99.14 and the latest 1.0 stable version with mysql support, which seems to be working for the 0.99.14. Unfortunately version 1.0 stable wont start and quits with this: dovecot: Jun 13 16:44:47 Error: child 27346 (auth) killed with signal 11 dovecot: Jun 13 16:44:48 Error: Auth process died too early - shutting down Version 0.99.14 starts though! I've not included my dovecot.conf and dovecot-mysql conf here because of their size, if you need them please ask me by email. This version seems to work, I can see the databse getting queried, and can get authenticated. After authentication it just says this: dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: MySQL: Performing query: SELECT clear FROM users,domains WHERE users.username = 'sebastiaan(a)**.**' AND users.enabled = '1' AND users.type='local' and domains.enabled='1' and domains.domain_id = users.domain_id; dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: MySQL: Performing query: SELECT maildir||'/sebastiaan' as home, uid, gid FROM domains WHERE domain = '**.**'; pop3-login: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Internal login failure: sebastiaan(a)**.** [**.**.215.237] dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: MySQL: connected to localhost dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 8 connected dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 8 sent handshake: PID 15133 dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 9 connected dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 9 sent handshake: PID 15149 dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 10 connected dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 10 sent handshake: PID 15124 dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 11 connected dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 11 sent handshake: PID 15126 dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 12 connected dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 12 sent handshake: PID 15127 dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 13 connected dovecot-auth: Jun 13 19:16:49 Info: Login process 13 sent handshake: PID 15129 The client gets disconnected and just says this: +OK dovecot ready. user sebastiaan(a)**.** +OK pass blabla +OK Logged in.

[Dovecot] chroot directory question
by Lisa C Boyd 14 Jun '05

14 Jun '05

I am setting up dovecot for imap on a new Fedora 3 box. Through SquirrelMail I can access my email - no problem. However my other users are getting this error message: ERROR : Connection dropped by imap-server. Query: CAPABILITY Looking in the maillog file for further error details gives me this: dovecot: chroot directory no included in valid_chroot_dirs: /home/user Looking through the dovecot.conf file I see where it says not to add in home directories under valid_chroot_dirs if the users have access to those directories. So I'm stuck now as to what I need to add to the conf file and I'm a little confused as to why it works for my email account and not the other users. Everything with these user accounts is setup the same (same maildir format, etc.). Thanks for any help :) Lisa B.

Since it was in real life, I hadn't time to get a gdb backtrace. Notes : . that user had restarted her client (Eudora). . my messages moves from one IMAP mbox to another did work. . the assertion failed occured with the version of 2005-06-04 as well (which I tried since the ChangLog mentionned some similar problems).
