27 Jul '09

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.2.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.2.tar.gz.sig Found and fixes several v1.2-specific bugs.

Hopefully good now. * lazy_expunge plugin: Drop \Deleted flag when moving message. + dovecot -n/-a now outputs also lda settings. + dovecot.conf !include now supports globs (e.g. !include /etc/dovecot/*.conf). Based on patch by Thomas Guthmann. + acl: Support spaces in user/group identifiers. + shared mailboxes: If only %%n is specified in prefix, default to current user's domain. - Dovecot master process could hang if it received signals too rapidly. - Fixed "corrupted index cache file" errors (and perhaps others) caused by e.g. IMAP's FETCH BODY[] command. - IMAP: When QRESYNC is enabled, don't crash when a new mail is received while IDLEing. - IMAP: FETCH X-* parameters weren't working. - Maildir++ quota: Quota was sometimes updated wrong when it was being recalculated. - Searching quoted-printable message body internally converted "_" characters to spaces and didn't match search keys with "_". - Messages in year's first/last day may have had broken timezones with OSes not having struct tm->tm_gmtoff (e.g. Solaris). - virtual plugin: If another session adds a new mailbox to index, don't crash.

Released Sieve v0.1.9 for Dovecot v1.2.1
by Stephan Bosch 22 Jul '09

22 Jul '09

Hello Dovecot users, Relatively many bugs and problems were reported recently in a short period of time. Apparently, now that Dovecot v1.2 is finally stable, the new Sieve plugin is also starting to get used much more. No known bugs remain. Let's hope I didn't spawn any new ones. Apart from the bugfixes I made the deprecated notify plugin implementation compatible with CMUSieve. You can use it, but keep in mind that the (rather stupid) denotify command is not (yet) implemented and that the $text$ substitution does not work (yes, there is a world of differences compared to enotify). Changelog Sieve v0.1.9: * Removed the unfinished sieve-filter tool from the default build. It is now only built when the --with-unfinished-features switch is supplied during configure. + Started building support for the ereject version of the reject action, which has a preference to use an SMTP/LMTP protocol error in stead of a bounce message. This is to be used to make the Sieve plugin honour Deliver's -e parameter. This is not yet finished and not built by default. + Improved 'Permission denied' error messages just like Dovecot does, precisely specifying what permission is missing to access or create a file. + Added additional headers to the list of allowed headers for the address test. The restrictive nature of the address test is not always appropriate. Still thinking of a better, less restrictive implementation. + Made the deprecated notify extension compatible with the old CMUSieve plugin. However, the denotify command and the $text$ substitution are not yet supported. + Made the discard action log a message to avoid confusion about disappearing messages. - Fixed behavior of fileinto when delivering into a namespace prefix. It now uses silent delivery into INBOX as fallback. - Fixed logging of folder namespace prefix upon delivery into a prefixed namespace. Formerly it only logged the bare folder name. - Fixed a potential segfault in the argument validation. It didn't surface because no command could have a :tag followed by an associated parameter as last argument. - Fixed segfault bug occuring in envelope test when performed on null (<>) envelope path. The fix involves a rather large restructuring of the code to make sure envelope addresses are properly handled everywhere (bug reported by Nikita Koshikov) - Envelope: fixed bug in application of address parts; failure to obtain the part would cause inappropriate match success (bug reported by Ron Lee) - Fixed extension conflict checks during validation. It could sometimes produce useless errormessages. This is currently only used by the deprecated extensions. - Forgot to remove old explicit storage library dependency (patch by Arkadiusz Miskiewicz). - Fixed compiler warnings on certain platforms regarding the use fwrite for outgoing message construction -- The releases are available as follows: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.9.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.9.tar.gz.sig -- Have fun testing the new releases and don't hesitate to notify me when there are problems.

by Stephan Bosch 13 Jul '09

13 Jul '09

Hello Dovecot users, This release is entirely composed of bug fixes, most of which were found and fixed earlier in the implementation for Dovecot v1.2. Changelog ManageSieve v0.10.7: - Fixed generation of core dumps. - Fixed panic occurring when many errors are produced by the Sieve compiler (bug found by Pascal Volk). - Fixed potential memory leak in the PUTSCRIPT command. - Fixed CRLF line breaks in compile errors. - Improved handling of script truncation bugs: connection is now closed. (ManageSieve patch) - Forgot to add the managesieve_logout_format setting to the config file. Now it works (bug reported by Pascal Volk). -- The releases are available as follows: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.1/dovecot-1.1-managesieve-0.10.7.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.1/dovecot-1.1-managesieve-0.10.7.tar.gz.s… http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.1/dovecot-1.1.17-managesieve-0.10.7.diff.… http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.1/dovecot-1.1.17-managesieve-0.10.7.diff.… -- Have fun testing the new releases and don't hesitate to notify me when there are problems.

Released Sieve v0.1.8 and ManageSieve v0.11.7 for Dovecot v1.2.1
by Stephan Bosch 13 Jul '09

13 Jul '09

Hello Dovecot users, The recent Dovecot v1.2.1 release broke ManageSieve compilation. Today, I release new packages to fix this and additionally a few bugs are resolved. Changelog Sieve v0.1.8: - Fixed AIX compile problem. For portability, the typeof operator is not used anymore. + Added partial support for the deprecated notify extension. However, it turns out that the implementation provided by cmusieve is even older (2001), meaning that this is currently not backwards compatible with cmusieve. Should be fixed in next release. Changelog ManageSieve v0.11.7: * Adjusted to changes in the Dovecot login API. This release now depends on Dovecot v1.2.1 or newer. * Incorporated various small changes in IMAP into ManageSieve. This includes properly enabling the generation of core dumps. - The previous release implicitly resolved the FreeBSD script truncation error. This release adds a small correction to the code that detects the truncation. - Fixed panic occurring when many errors are produced by the Sieve compiler (bug found by Pascal Volk). - Fixed memory leak in the PUTSCRIPT command. (ManageSieve patch) - Forgot to add the managesieve_logout_format setting to the config file. Now it works (bug reported by Pascal Volk). -- The releases are available as follows: Sieve: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.8.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.8.tar.gz.sig ManageSieve (package + patch): http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.7.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.7.tar.gz.s… http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.1-managesieve-0.11.7.diff.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.1-managesieve-0.11.7.diff.g… -- Have fun testing the new releases and don't hesitate to notify me when there are problems.

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.1.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.1.tar.gz.sig Mainly fixes to some issues found by people when upgrading to v1.2.0. * GSSAPI: Changed logging levels and improved the messages. Changed the way cross-realm authentication handling is done, hopefully it's working now for everyone. * imap/pop3 logins now fail if home directory path is relative. v1.2.0 deliver was already failing with these and they could have caused problems even with v1.1. * IMAP: Custom authentication failure messages are now prefixed with [ALERT] to get more clients to actually show them. + Improved some error messages. - pop3: AUTH PLAIN was broken when SASL initial response wasn't given. - mbox: New mailboxes were created with UIDVALIDITY 1. - quota-fs was defaulting to group quota instead of user quota. - Fixed ACLs to work with mbox. - Fixed fchmod(-1, -1) errors with BSDs - convert plugin / convert-tool: Fixed changing hierarchy separators in mailbox names when alt_hierarchy_char isn't set.

Released Sieve v0.1.7 and ManageSieve v0.11.6 for Dovecot v1.2.0
by Stephan Bosch 05 Jul '09

05 Jul '09

Hello Dovecot users, I hereby release new versions of the Sieve packages for the recently released Dovecot v1.2.0 (Congrats Timo!). Apart from small changes to make things compile with Dovecot again, a few other bugs were fixed as well. Unfortunately, the (FreeBSD-specific) 8kb script truncation bug remains. Although it is reported for Dovecot v1.1.16, I see no reason why it should not surface in v1.2.0 as well. Any help is appreciated. Changelog Sieve v0.1.7: + Improved consistency of sieve tool documentation and fixed missing parameters in internal tool help output. + Enhanced extensions configuration, allowing to specify the enabled extensions relatively to the default (patch by Steffen Kaiser). - Forgot to initialize script execution status in Sieve plugin, causing segfaults on compile errors in specific conditions. - Fixed logging in Sieve plugin for execution of default main script (went to STDERR). Changelog ManageSieve v0.11.6: * Adjusted to changes in Dovecot regarding client idle timeout vs authentication timeout. This release now depends on Dovecot v1.2.rc6 or newer. - Fixed CRLF line breaks in compile errors (bug reported by Pascal Volk). - Corrected directory/file creation behavior with respect to mode bits and gid (bug reported by Pascal Volk). - Improved handling of script truncation bugs: connection is now closed and and error is logged (bug itself not fixed yet). - Prevented temp script name from showing up in error output. -- The releases are available as follows: Sieve: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.7.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.7.tar.gz.sig ManageSieve (package + patch): http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.6.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.6.tar.gz.s… http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.0-managesieve-0.11.6.diff.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.0-managesieve-0.11.6.diff.g… -- Have fun testing the new releases and don't hesitate to notify me when there are problems.

v1.2.0 released
by Timo Sirainen 01 Jul '09

01 Jul '09

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.0.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.0.tar.gz.sig As promised. No changes since v1.2.rc8 (except packaged in OS X, since CentOS 5 autotools didn't add support for configure --docdir). Below are the largest changes since v1.1: * When creating files or directories to mailboxes, Dovecot now uses the mailbox directory's permissions and GID for them. Previous versions simply used 0600 mode always. For backwards compatibility dovecot-shared file's permissions still override these with Maildir. * SQL dictionary (quota) configuration file is different than in v1.1. See doc/dovecot-dict-sql-example.conf for the new format. * deliver -m: Mailbox name is now assumed to be in UTF-8 format, not modified-UTF7. Stephan Bosch's new Sieve implementation also assumes UTF-8 format in fileinto parameters. + Full support for shared mailboxes and IMAP ACL extension. The code is mainly from Sascha Wilde and Bernhard Herzog. + IMAP: Added support for extensions: CONDSTORE, QRESYNC, ESEARCH, ESORT, SEARCHRES, WITHIN, ID and CONTEXT=SEARCH. + SEARCH supports INTHREAD search key, but the rest of the INTHREAD draft isn't implemented yet so it's not advertised in capability. + THREAD REFS algorithm where threads are sorted by their latest message instead of the thread root message. There is also no base subject merging. + IMAP: Implemented imap-response-codes draft. + Thread indexes for optimizing IMAP THREAD command and INTHREAD search key. + Added userdb checkpassword (by Sascha Wilde) + Virtual mailboxes: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual + Autocreate plugin: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Autocreate + Listescape plugin: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Listescape
