[Dovecot] fts_squat + virtual => crash

Hi, dovecot's imap process segfaults when I search a virtual mailbox using the fts_squat plugin. Is this supposed to work, or a known bug? I've seen some changes commited to fts_solr a couple of months ago that where supposed to fix search issues on virtual mailboxes, maybe fts_squat needs to be fixed to? log === rawlog ------ 3551 SELECT "INBOX.virtual.unseen" 3552 UID SEARCH TEXT "catalyst" syslog ------ 11:34 kernel: [78583.208983] imap[29376]: segfault at 0 ip 0 sp 7fff9b3e1698 error 14 in imap[400000+f4000] 11:34 dovecot: dovecot: child 29376 (imap) killed with signal 11 (core dumps disabled) backtrace ========= As I'm using Debian's 1.2.1 package, the debugging symbols are stripped.

[Dovecot] Global ACL configuration problems: mailboxes not visible, set ACLs not honoured
by Andreas Ntaflos 01 Sep '09

01 Sep '09

Hi list, I am having trouble getting global ACLs to work correctly. This is, I assume, an issue separate from the one I reported a few days ago [1], where the imap process crashes when creating subfolders of folders with an ACL set. As you can see from my 'dovecot -n' output below I have three namespaces; two private ("Backup" and the default, empty one) and one public ("Public"). I also use the autocreate plugin to create a few standard folders. Those folders, along with some others, should have some special permissions and restrictions in place. I.e. messages must not be deletable, the mailbox itself may not be deleted, etc. I want to use global ACLs so that I don't have to put a dovecot-acl file in every folder that I want to have an ACL set. Thus, according to the wiki, if have set acl:vfile:/etc/dovecot/acls I can create files named "Sent", "Trash", "Drafts", "INBOX.Spam" and "Backup.sent", "Backup.received", "Public.Spam", "Public.Ham" in the directory /etc/dovecot/acls. These files contain the ACL, such as "owner lrp", "owner lrwsipk" and "authenticated lrwstipk". Any and all "dovecot-acl-list" files have been deleted before testing and reproducing that problem again just now. Is there anything more to it? I ask, because I can't seem to get it to work correctly using this approach with global ACLs. Problems include: - Can't get the mailboxes "Spam" and "Ham" under the "Public" namespace to show up in the mail client (Thunderbird, KMail, Horde/IMP) at all. These have the ACL "authenticated lrwstipk" set so the should be visible to authenticated clients, shouldn't they? All I see is the namespace with no mailboxes beneath it. - Deleting messages from the "Backup.sent" or "Backup.received" mailboxes is possible from Thunderbird, KMail and Horde/IMP, despite having the ACL "owner rlp" set, which, if I understand correctly, should only allow users to lookup, read and post to the mailing list via LDA/Sieve. What am I doing wrong? It seems to me that the global ACL files for namespaces other than the empty one are not at all considered? Do I have to use another notation for the ACL file names? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance! Configuration information follows.
