[Dovecot] POP3/IMAP crash signal 10
by Patrick Wood 08 Dec '11

08 Dec '11

Hi, I'm building a Postfix/Dovecot mail server and while I am able to send/receive emails using telnet, after establishing a connection to Dovecot via a client (Mail Live, Thunderbird etc) the following appears in the logs: Nov 28 14:11:02 mailserver dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.info] pop3-login: Login: user=<user(a)domain.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, mpid=282 78 Nov 28 14:11:02 mailserver dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.error] master: Error: service(pop3-login): child 28277 killed with signal 10 (core not dumped - set service pop3-log in { drop_priv_before_exec=yes }) Nov 28 14:11:02 mailserver dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.info] pop3(user(a)domain.com): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/5, size=3250 I also experience very poor connectivity to the server, with Microsoft Mail and Thunderbird regularly failing to connect (connection errors in the client and no login attempt in the dovecot logs). I assume this is related to the issue above. I am running dovecot 2.0.16 on Solaris 10 SPARC using a ZFS filesystem for mailbox storage. Here is my configuration: # 2.0.16: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: SunOS 5.10 sun4u zfs auth_mechanisms = plain login disable_plaintext_auth = no mail_location = maildir:/storage0/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir mail_plugins = quota passdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=1G } postmaster_address = root(a)domain.com sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota quota imap_quota } protocol lda { mail_plugins = quota quota } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = quota quota pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh } I'm tearing my hair out! Hopefully someone can see something I'm missing

[Dovecot] Questions about Proxy/Director (was: Re: Indexes to MLC-SSD)

Maybe all users on backend-server1 are fetching their mails causing high load while backend-server2 is idle. Is it possible to specify more than one backend-server IPs as I can do for the database hosts for userdb queries?

[Dovecot] lazy_expunge plugin and folder subscription trouble
by Jürgen Obermann 08 Dec '11

08 Dec '11

Hello, I wanted to test the lazy expunge plugin together with mdbox. It seems to me that the folder subscriptions file in the mdbox directory was overwritten with only a few folder names every time I added or removed something in the list of subscribed folders, or even if I turned the imap folder subscription feature off and on. Here is my setup: # 2.0.16: /opt/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: SunOS 5.10 sun4v mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox mail_plugins = mail_log notify quota lazy_expunge zlib mdbox_rotate_interval = 1 days mdbox_rotate_size = 16 M namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / type = private } namespace { hidden = yes list = no location = prefix = Mail/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = private } namespace { location = maildir:/var/mail/public:CONTROL=~/Maildir/public:INDEX=~/Maildir/public prefix = Public/ separator = / subscriptions = no type = public } namespace { location = mdbox:~/mdbox:MAILBOXDIR=expunged prefix = .EXPUNGED/ separator = / } plugin { autocreate = Trash autocreate2 = caughtspam autocreate3 = Sent autocreate4 = Drafts autosubscribe = Trash autosubscribe2 = caughtspam autosubscribe3 = Sent autosubscribe4 = Drafts fts = squat lazy_expunge = .EXPUNGED/ mail_log_events = delete undelete expunge copy mailbox_delete mailbox_rename mail_log_fields = uid box msgid size quota = fs:Home-Verzeichnis:noenforcing sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve zlib_save = gz zlib_save_level = 3 } protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve quota_full_tempfail = yes sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail service auth { client_limit = 11120 } service imap-login { process_min_avail = 16 service_count = 0 vsz_limit = 640 M } service imap { process_limit = 4096 vsz_limit = 1 G } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/horus.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/horus.key syslog_facility = local0 userdb { driver = passwd } version_ignore = yes protocol lda { info_log_path = log_path = mail_plugins = mail_log notify quota lazy_expunge zlib sieve } protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail tb-extra-mailbox-sep tb-lsub-flags mail_max_userip_connections = 20 mail_plugins = mail_log notify quota lazy_expunge zlib autocreate fts fts_squat imap_quota imap_zlib } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = mail_log notify quota lazy_expunge zlib sieve } protocol pop3 { pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh pop3_uidl_format = %08Xv%08Xu } -- Hochschulrechenzentrum der | Mail: Juergen.Obermann(a)hrz.uni-giessen.de Justus-Liebig-Universitaet | WWW: http://www.uni-giessen.de/obermann/ Heinrich-Buff-Ring 44 | Tel: 0641-99-13054 (0641-99-13001) D-35392 Giessen, Germany | Fax: 0641-99-13009

[Dovecot] doveadm fetch vs search+fetch
by Joseph Tam 08 Dec '11

08 Dec '11

What's the pactical difference between using "doveadm fetch" rather than using "doveadm search" in conjunction with "doveadm fetch", as the man pages suggest? It seems "doveadm fetch" functionally supercedes "doveadm search" making the latter obsolete. It can even be closely simulated with "doveadm -f tab fetch ... 'mailbox-guid uid' search-query ...".

[Dovecot] IMAP SPECIAL-USE extension
by Timo Sirainen 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

It's implemented now in dovecot-2.1 hg. It also deprecates autocreate plugin (but it still works the old way). The idea is that you can now do e.g.: mailbox Trash { auto = no special_use = \Trash } mailbox Drafts { auto = no special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe # autocreate, autosubscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox Spam { auto = create # autocreate, but don't autosubscribe special_use = \Junk } mailbox virtual/All { # if you have a virtual "All messages" mailbox auto = no special_use = \All } The mailbox names require a namespace prefix, so if you use e.g. "INBOX." prefix you'll need to use: mailbox INBOX.Trash { ..etc..

[Dovecot] master user only for sieve
by Jan-Frode Myklebust 07 Dec '11

07 Dec '11

Changes in SOGo is forcing me to define a master user, so that SOGo can disable sieve out-of-office processing on a given date. I'm not too happy about having master users that are allowed to read the users messages, so is it possible to define a master user that can only log in trough manage-sieve? -jf

But for solving the localization problem for special-use folders, it's only half the way. Are there any plans to support RFC5464 SETMETADATA, so individual users can name their "\Trash" folder "Skraldspand" in danish or what ever they prefer? /Peter
