Hello Dovecot users,
Here's the definitive 0.4.17 release. There were no changes since the
release candidate.
Changelog v0.4.17:
- LDA Sieve plugin: Fixed handling of an early explicit keep during
multiscript execution. Action side-effects and the message snapshot
would be lost at the final stage where the implicit keep is
evaluated. This could result in the IMAP flags assigned to the
message to be forgotten or that headers modified by the "editheader"
extension would revert to their original state.
- file script storage: Amended the up-to-date time stamp comparison for
on-disk binaries to include nanoseconds. This will fix problems
occurring when both binary and script are saved within the same
second. This fix is ineffective on older systems that have no support
for nanoseconds in stat() timestamps, which should be pretty rare
nowadays.
- file script storage: Improve saving and listing permission error to
include more details.
- imapsieve plugin: Make sure "INBOX" is upper case in static mailbox
rules. Otherwise, the mailbox name would never match, since matching
is performed case-sensitively and Dovecot only returns the
upper-cased "INBOX".
- imapsieve plugin: Fixed assert failure occurring when used with
virtual mailboxes.
- doveadm sieve plugin: Fixed crash when setting Sieve script via
attribute's string value.
The release is available as follows:

Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot v2.x wiki for
more information. Have fun testing this release and don't
hesitate to notify me when there are any problems.

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.28.tar.gzhttp://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.28.tar.gz.sig
* director: "doveadm director move" to same host now refreshes user's
timeout. This allows keeping user constantly in the same backend by
just periodically moving the user there.
* When new mailbox is created, use initially INBOX's
dovecot.index.cache caching decisions.
* Expunging mails writes GUID to dovecot.index.log now only if the
GUID is quickly available from index/cache.
* pop3c: Increase timeout for PASS command to 5 minutes.
* Mail access errors are no longer ignored when searching or sorting.
With IMAP the untagged SEARCH/SORT reply is still sent the same as
before, but NO reply is returned instead of OK.
+ Make dovecot.list.index's filename configurable. This is needed when
there are multiple namespaces pointing to the same mail root
(e.g. lazy_expunge namespace for mdbox).
+ Add size.virtual to dovecot.index when folder vsizes are accessed
(e.g. quota=count). This is mainly a workaround to avoid slow quota
recalculation performance when message sizes get lost from
dovecot.index.cache due to corruption or some other reason.
+ auth: Support OAUTHBEARER and XOAUTH2 mechanisms. Also support them
in lib-dsasl for client side.
+ auth: Support filtering by SASL mechanism: passdb { mechanisms }
+ Shrink the mail processes' memory usage by not storing settings
duplicated unnecessarily many times.
+ imap: Add imap_fetch_failure setting to control what happens when
FETCH fails for some mails (see example-config).
+ imap: Include info about last command in disconnection log line.
+ imap: Created new SEARCH=X-MIMEPART extension. It's currently not
advertised by default, since it's not fully implemented.
+ fts-solr: Add support for basic authentication.
+ Cassandra: Support automatically retrying failed queries if
execution_retry_interval and execution_retry_times are set.
+ doveadm: Added "mailbox path" command.
+ mail_log plugin: If plugin { mail_log_cached_only=yes }, log the
wanted fields only if it doesn't require opening the email.
+ mail_vsize_bg_after_count setting added (see example-config).
+ mail_sort_max_read_count setting added (see example-config).
+ pop3c: Added pop3c_features=no-pipelining setting to prevent using
PIPELINING extension even though it's advertised.
- Index files: day_first_uid wasn't updated correctly since v2.2.26.
This caused dovecot.index.cache to be non-optimal.
- imap: SEARCH/SORT may have assert-crashed in
client_check_command_hangs
- imap: FETCH X-MAILBOX may have assert-crashed in virtual mailboxes.
- imap: Running time in tagged command reply was often wrongly 0.
- search: Using NOT n:* or NOT UID n:* wasn't handled correctly
- director: doveadm director kick was broken
- director: Fix crash when using director_flush_socket
- director: Fix some bugs when moving users between backends
- imapc: Various error handling fixes and improvements
- master: doveadm process status output had a lot of duplicates.
- autoexpunge: If mailbox's rename timestamp is newer than mail's
save-timestamp, use it instead. This is useful when autoexpunging
e.g. Trash/* and an entire mailbox is deleted by renaming it under
Trash to prevent it from being autoexpunged too early.
- autoexpunge: Multiple processes may have been trying to expunge the
same mails simultaneously. This was problematic especially with
lazy_expunge plugin.
- auth: %{passdb:*} was empty in auth-worker processes
- auth-policy: hashed_password was always sent empty.
- dict-sql: Merge multiple UPDATEs to a single statement if possible.
- fts-solr: Escape {} chars when sending queries
- fts: fts_autoindex_exclude = \Special-use caused crashes
- doveadm-server: Fix leaks and other problems when process is reused
for multiple requests (service_count != 1)
- sdbox: Fix assert-crash on mailbox create race
- lda/lmtp: deliver_log_format values weren't entirely correct if Sieve
was used. especially %{storage_id} was broken.
- lmtp_user_concurrency_limit didn't work if userdb changed username
http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2.28.rc2.tar.gzhttp://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2.28.rc2.tar.gz.sig
I'm assuming that most of the bugs are now found and fixed, so the final 2.2.28 should be out in a day or two.
Changes since rc1:
* Reverted [UNKNOWN-CTE] -> [PARSE] change
+ pop3c: Added pop3c_features=no-pipelining setting to prevent using PIPELINING extension even though it's advertised.
- lmtp_user_concurrency_limit didn't work if userdb changed username
- Fixed various bugs that were introduced in rc1
Here's the full list of changes again:
* director: "doveadm director move" to same host now refreshes user's
timeout. This allows keeping user constantly in the same backend by
just periodically moving the user there.

dovecot.index.cache caching decisions.

Hello Dovecot users,
Several bugs were found in the course of the last few months, but no new
features were created. So, this will be strictly a bug-fixing release.
The previous Pigeonhole release should still work with the new Dovecot
release, which means you are not required to upgrade. However, my advice
would be to upgrade once this release candidate matures into a final
release, since at least the first bug listed below is pretty severe.
Changelog v0.4.17:
- LDA Sieve plugin: Fixed handling of an early explicit keep during
multiscript execution. Action side-effects and the message snapshot
would be lost at the final stage where the implicit keep is
evaluated. This could result in the IMAP flags assigned to the
message to be forgotten or that headers modified by the "editheader"
extension would revert to their original state.
- file script storage: Amended the up-to-date time stamp comparison for
on-disk binaries to include nanoseconds. This will fix problems
occurring when both binary and script are saved within the same
second. This fix is ineffective on older systems that have no support
for nanoseconds in stat() timestamps, which should be pretty rare
nowadays.
- file script storage: Improve saving and listing permission error to
include more details.

rules. Otherwise, the mailbox name would never match, since matching
is performed case-sensitively and Dovecot only returns the
upper-cased "INBOX".

virtual mailboxes.
- doveadm sieve plugin: Fixed crash when setting Sieve script via
attribute's string value.

Pretty large release. Please test before the final v2.2.28, which should be out in a few days.
BTW. Our plan is to start making new releases approximately every month from now on.

GUID is quickly available from index/cache.

instead of [UNKNOWNCTE] (which is now used only for actually unknown
Content-Transfer-Encoding headers).
