[Dovecot] ACL plugin, public namespace, erroneous \HasNoChildren

Hi, dovecot 1.2.2 with a second namespace called "Public", mapped to "/export/vmailboxes/public", LIST returning \HasNoChildren: root@testvm06:~# cat /export/vmailboxes/public/dovecot-acl user=cite lrwstiekxa authenticated lrs anyone lrs root@testvm06:~# ls -l /export/vmailboxes/public/.announcements/dovecot-acl lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Aug 6 03:50 /export/vmailboxes/public/.announcements/dovecot-acl -> ../dovecot-acl With ACL plugin enabled (notice the \HasNoChildren): root@testvm06:~# telnet localhost 143 Trying 127.0.0.1...

[Dovecot] Dovecot deliver uidlist issues
by Mark Zealey 07 Aug '09

07 Aug '09

Hi all, Lets say I have a maildir which doesn't contain any dovecot files but has some emails lying around in it. If I add a message to this mailbox using deliver, dovecot creates the uidlist file with a single entry (the message that was just delivered). When I then log in to the mailbox, all the other messages are added into the uidlist file in the normal order (directory list order I believe). Then, the mailbox is in a situation where anything that was delivered into the mailbox before the user logs in is at the very top of a uidlist. Unfortunately many webmail clients seem to order the mailbox by reverse uidl, so we get the situation where people log into webmail (we use @mail) after their mailboxes have been migrated to dovecot and any messages delivered between the time of migration and the time of login are put to the very end of the list. This could presumably be fixed by ordering the mailbox according to date but certainly @mail doesn't really do this very well. I've only tested this on v1.1 (1.1.17 from atrpms), but I didn't see anything in the changelog to indicate that this deliver behaviour has changed in v1.2. Perhaps there should be a deliver option to recreate the uidlist file by doing a full scan if it doesn't exist (as a login via pop/imap would do), although I'm not sure why this shouldn't be the default? (apart from deliever potentially causing a high amount of io). My current work-around is to use postlogin to remove the uidlist file when someone logs in to the mailbox for the first time which then forces it to be created in the correct order; but this is a very messy solution.

[Dovecot] connect to IMAP
by jolan D 07 Aug '09

07 Aug '09

hi, I am trying to get a webbased IMAP mail module to work. http://nocc.sourceforge.net/ But it seems it doesn't connect to it. When i try to login it says: "login is not allowed for connection" i guess it has to do with the settings of the conf file. I have dovecot installed on Centos and installed it with yum. All (basic)settings are usually set correctly during install. After trying hard still no login. So i am hoping you guys can help me out.

[Dovecot] sieve rules processing
by Nikita Koshikov 06 Aug '09

06 Aug '09

Hello list, My question: is sieve support some kind of "continue" action, to explicit tell server processing rules below current one(if current has triged)? Situation: I have few rules, which fileinto's to different directories. All is working fine, but if I want redirect all my mail for some period of time to another mailbox, I'm adding rule like this, to be processing first. if anyof (true) { redirect "koshikov(a)gmail.com"; keep; } Mail redirecting, but keep state store messages to INBOX. All I want - to process other rules, which will move message to the right imap directory. This situation also happens with vacation sieve-action. In sieve rfc I didn't find any workaround to that actions. Maybe someone know how to make sieve working in described way?

[Dovecot] deliver is curious
by Sven Strickroth 06 Aug '09

Hi, Im' using deliver with postfix (mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -n -m "$EXTENSION"). In dovecot.conf I've set mail_location to maildir:/var/spool/imap/users/%u/Maildir It works, but not for ONE "special" email. If I send mail to e.g. th(a)trg-oha.de it gets correctly delivered (see noerror.txt), but I have one mail with an attachment (i cannot provide it because of privacy reasons) where i get the attached error. How comes that deliver doesn't use the mail_location but the real home-directory (from ldap, it doesn't exist on the mailserver) of that user in this case? -- Best regards, Sven mailto:sven@clamav.net ClamAV, a GPL anti-virus toolkit http://www.clamav.net Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv postfix/qmgr[15624]: 4C8582024C: from=<kt(a)gmx.de>, size=1436493, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): Home dir not found: /home/daten/user/lehrer/th Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): Namespace: type=private, prefix=, sep=., inbox=yes, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): maildir: data=/var/spool/imap/users/th/Maildir Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): maildir++: root=/var/spool/imap/users/th/Maildir, index=, control=, inbox=/var/spool/imap/users/th/Maildir Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): Namespace: type=shared, prefix=users.%n., sep=., inbox=no, hidden=no, list=(null), subscriptions=no Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): shared: root=, index=, control=, inbox= Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): Namespace: type=public, prefix=shared., sep=., inbox=no, hidden=no, list=(null), subscriptions=no Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): maildir: data=/var/spool/imap/shared Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): maildir++: root=/var/spool/imap/shared, index=, control=, inbox= Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): Namespace : Using permissions from /var/spool/imap/users/th/Maildir: mode=0700 gid=-1 Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): mkdir_parents_chown(/home/daten/user/lehrer/th) failed: Permission denied (euid=2684(th) egid=12(mail) missing +w perm: /home) Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): copy: i_stream_read() failed: Permission denied Aug 3 00:57:40 mailsrv dovecot: deliver(th): msgid=<F915DEB780CD459A93FA6A3E9B4564BA@EeeTh>: save failed to INBOX: Internal error occurred.

[Dovecot] Deliver LDA versus vdelivermail
by Wouter van der Schagt 05 Aug '09

05 Aug '09

Good morning all, I have a question. Due to my interest in the Sieve plug-in. I'm considering to change the LDA on my production servers from 'vdelivermail' from vpopmail to 'deliver' from Dovecot. However I'm not sure how to go about doing this or whether there are any conversion issues that I should be aware of. Currently my /var/qmail/control/defaultdelivery is set to "./Maildir/". I am assuming I have to set that to: "|/var/qmail/bin/preline -f /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d $EXT@$USER" Does it also mean I have to recreate all .qmail and .qmail-default files? Am I missing anything else? Does anybody have any experience in changing LDA on production servers? Sincerely, - Wouter van der Schagt
