Is SIS for dbox included in the 2.0.2 sources? Or only via Mercurial? -- Daniel

[Dovecot] Sieve problems - compiled script does not get updated
by aditsu 16 Sep '10

16 Sep '10

Hi, I'm using Dovecot 1.1.7 with sieve and managesieve, and Thunderbird with the sieve plugin (0.1.10). Sieve filters are generally working, but I noticed a situation where a script wrongly remains in effect. Here's how to reproduce the problem: - write 2 sieve scripts (in Thunderbird), say A and B, triggered by different things - activate script A and send an email that triggers it (so that it gets compiled) - change the active script to B (by clicking its "active" icon in the list) - send an email that triggers B; it will not work - send an email that triggers A; it will still work The only way I found to fix it is to hunt down the corresponding .dovecot.sievec file and delete it (the .dovecot.sieve symlink gets updated correctly, but .dovecot.sievec doesn't). After deleting it, the correct script is compiled and executed. Is this problem fixed in a newer version of dovecot? Thanks Adrian -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Sieve-problems---compiled-script-does-not-get-updated… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] sieve rules quiestion (deduplicate e-mails)
by Vasiliy G Tolstov 16 Sep '10

16 Sep '10

Hello. I'm successful use sieve for filtering e-mail from various subscriptions. But if i have subscription for 2 or more mailing lists and user write email to list1(a)xxx.org and list2(a)yyy.org by REPLY TO ALL or make a CC header, i'm recieve email twice, if i reply in some list to user and user REPLY TO ALL - i'm recieve email 3 times :) How can i'm eliminate this duplications? For example i want to recive all emails, but put only one in subscription folder. And other silently discard.... And second question is - i have many subsections to mailing lists, sieve rules looks like this: elsif header :contains "List-Id" ["cfe-dev.cs.uiuc.edu"] { fileinto "Subscriptions/Clang"; } elsif header :contains "List-Id" ["jabberd2-lists.xiaoka.com"] { fileinto "Subscriptions/Jabberd2"; } elsif header :contains "List-Id" ["chef.lists.opscode.com"] { fileinto "Subscriptions/Chef"; } elsif header :contains "List-Id" ["help-cfengine.cfengine.org"] { fileinto "Subscriptions/Cfengine"; } # rule:[Exherbo] elsif header :contains "List-Id" ["exherbo-dev.lists.exherbo.org","exherbo-commits.lists.exherbo.org"] { fileinto "Subscriptions/Exherbo"; } # rule:[Php] elsif header :contains "List-Id" ["highload-php-ru.googlegroups.com","highload-php-en.googlegroups.com"] { fileinto "Subscriptions/Php"; } # rule:[Btrfs] elsif header :contains ["List-Id"] ["linux-btrfs.vger.kernel.org"] { fileinto "Subscriptions/Btrfs"; How can i minimize this rules and save desired functionality? -- Vasiliy G Tolstov <v.tolstov(a)selfip.ru> Selfip.Ru

[Dovecot] Migrating mail from mbox to maildir using dovecot
by Donny Brooks 15 Sep '10

15 Sep '10

Hello, Currently our mail server is setup to use postfix and dovecot, which is fine except it is setup to use mbox format mail. That and procmail as we need to move to sieve but that is a different issue. I have searched until blue in the face and cannot find a 100% working solution that doesn't require alot of manual interaction to move the mail boxes from mbox to maildir. I have tried the mb2md.pl stuff but with over 150+ users that can get tedious having to log in as each one of them to migrate them. I also tried the convert plugin located here: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Convert but it kept erroring about not able to convert the box and exiting. We have approx 200GB of mail total that needs to be migrated. Maybe I am just simply missing something but is there a way that we can migrate all the users with minimal end user interaction and minimal administration time? We need this done asap as our backups are killing us with the large mbox style files. Thanks in advance for any and all input to this. -- Donny B.

[Dovecot] Authentication with lower case username ONLY
by Leander S. 15 Sep '10

15 Sep '10

Hi, how do you guys force your users to authenticate with lower case letters ONLY? Or convert it? Is there a SASL Option to force that - or are you using scripts i.e. a bash script in combination with the command "tr" ... or a third solution I didn't think of yet? I'm using Postfix / Dovecot combination. Postfix is told to use Dovecots SASL Service to authenticate it's users. For my outgoing eMails I already wrote a script with tr which forms upercase usernames to lowercase ones ... but it's not enough. SpamAssassin is still confused and writes uppercase letters in it's Database etc. ... So that's why I'm looking for a more universal solution. P.S. I would basically prefer a convertation - but I would also be fine with a forced lower case auth system. Thanks & Regards

[Dovecot] v2.0.0 released
by Timo Sirainen 15 Sep '10

15 Sep '10

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/dovecot-2.0.0.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/dovecot-2.0.0.tar.gz.sig As promised last Friday, here's the v2.0.0 release finally. I'm cautiously optimistic that v2.0.1 won't (have to) be released for a few weeks, since there was quite a lot of testing and fixing going on in the RC stage. Remember to read http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Upgrading/2.0 before upgrading from v1.x. Although there is automatic config conversion, it can't handle everything, so reserve some extra time for upgrading. If you find an upgrade problem that isn't listed on the wiki page, please add it there or email Dovecot mailing list about it. Pigeonhole Sieve and ManageSieve support can now be installed without patching Dovecot. Unfortunately there isn't a Pigeonhole release yet for v2.0, but its Mercurial code tree should be quite stable. See http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole There are no changes since v2.0.rc6. The largest changes since v1.2 are: * Dovecot uses two system users for internal purposes now by default: dovenull and dovecot. You need to create the dovenull user or change default_login_user setting. * Global ACLs are now looked up using namespace prefixes. For example if you previously had INBOX. namespace prefix and a global ACL for "INBOX.Sent", it's now looked up from "INBOX.Sent" file instead of "Sent" as before. * Maildir: File permissions are no longer based on dovecot-shared file, but the mailbox directory. + Redesigned master process. It's now more modular and there is less code running as root. + Configuration supports now per-local/remote ip/network settings. + dsync utility does a two-way mailbox synchronization. + LMTP server and proxying. + Added mdbox (multi-dbox) mail storage backend. + doveadm utility can be used to do all kinds of administration functions. Old dovecotpw and *view utilities now exist in its subcommands. + imap and pop3 processes can now handle multiple connections. + IMAP: COMPRESS=DEFLATE is supported by imap_zlib plugin + director service helps NFS installations to redirect users always to same server to avoid corruption

[Dovecot] sieve is broken in the latest revision
by interfaSys sàrl 15 Sep '10

15 Sep '10

All the sudden messages filtered by sieve are delivered to folders named after the recipient instead of sticking to the rules and delivering the messages to the INBOX. Is this an intended change? Instead of Maildir/.INBOX it goes to Maildir/.user(a)domain.com Cheers, Olivier
