I am following the steps listed in: http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/ActiveDirectoryNtlm My goal is to have single sign-on for Microsoft Outlook applications. I working and I have some doubts since I never set up an imap server, hope I can help :). The version that I have installed is devecot 2.0.9. "dovecot -n" shows the following: # 2.0.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS release 6.4 (Final) auth_use_winbind = yes mbox_write_locks = fcntl passdb { driver = pam } protocols = imap pop3 ssl = no userdb { args = uid=10000 gid=10000 home=/mail/%d/%n driver = static } I show what I have in /etc/samba/smb.conf [global] workgroup = EJEMPLO realm = EJEMPLO.COM.UY server string = %h (Samba %v) security = ADS password server = ad.domain.dom username map = /etc/samba/mapeousuarios map untrusted to domain = Yes syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 name resolve order = wins host bcast local master = No domain master = No dns proxy = No wins server = here active directory ip panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d winbind separator = + winbind use default domain = Yes winbind rpc only = Yes idmap config * : range = 1200-3000 idmap config * : backend = tdb [usuarios3] path = /exports/archivos-usuarios read only = No map acl inherit = Yes store dos attributes = Yes "wbinfo -g" and "wbinfo -u" work well. kinit Administrator work well also. Some steps of the configuration in dovecot.conf does not recognize: 1) "protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s". 2) "mechanisms = plain ntlm login". 3) "allow_all_users=yes" y "mail=maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%1Ln/%Ln:INBOX=/home/vmail/%d/%1Ln/%Ln". I'm not sure I should put in place. I also have some doubts: 1) I have to create a keytab file containing the principal for imap and pop?, as it would indicate Dovecot?. 2) That should indicate values uid y el gid? 3) I have to set something in pam? if I make "telnet localhost imap" shows the following: OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready NTLM not appears in the options. I hope I can shed some light on the subject :) Thanks and greetings. -- Maria José

[Dovecot] dovecot-lmtp does not work
by He Shiming 01 Jun '13

01 Jun '13

Dear Community, I've got a weird problem regarding lmtp setup with dovecot 2.0.19 on ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. My reference of the configuration is at https://library.linode.com/email/postfix/postfix2.9.6-dovecot2.0.19-mysql , and my configuration is identical to it with the exception of opening the 110 pop3 port, and enabling plain text auth. Everything from imap, smtp, pop3 (including auth) works except for lmtp. I saw thousands of the following messages in /var/log/mail.log: May 31 09:05:24 postfix/lmtp[3664]: 2FD80321F4: to=<myaddress(a)me.com>, relay=none, delay=0.41, delays=0.41/0/0/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to me.com[private/dovecot-lmtp]: No such file or directory) And it happens when an incoming email is received. Here's the output of configuration: root@prosp:/etc/dovecot/conf.d# dovecot -n # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.8.4-linode50 i686 Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS ext3 auth_mechanisms = plain login disable_plaintext_auth = no mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n mail_privileged_group = mail managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = imap pop3 sieve service auth-worker { user = vmail } service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { mode = 0600 user = vmail } user = dovecot } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } } service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 110 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_cipher_list = ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2:ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n driver = static } protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail mail_max_userip_connections = 10 } protocol pop3 { mail_max_userip_connections = 10 pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh } protocol lda { deliver_log_format = msgid=%m: %$ mail_plugins = sieve postmaster_address = postmaster quota_full_tempfail = yes rejection_reason = Your message to <%t> was automatically rejected:%n%r } This problem has been discussed here: http://serverfault.com/questions/512219/dovecot-lmtp-does-not-exist . I've then tried switching from unix socket to inet listener, and still got the same result. I cannot get lmtp service to start. I'm also seeing no errors in the log when dovecot is restarted (see the above link for the log). I'm wondering how do I go about troubleshooting this problem? What might be the possible cause? Is it possible for dovecot to output verbose logs regarding service startups? Thank you. -- Best regards, He Shiming *Kaoya.me <http://kaoya.me> | Goals.io<http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/goals.io-realize-your-dreams/id496228828?ls=…> | Toppin'Wiper <https://itunes.apple.com/app/toppinwiper/id553527232?mt=8> | MediaMan <http://www.imediaman.com>*

[Dovecot] LDA/LMTP - saving to INBOX fallback on tempfail?
by Timo Sirainen 31 May '13

31 May '13

Currently if saving to mailbox fails for any reason, the mail is saved to INBOX instead. Same if a Sieve redirect fails, the mail is saved to INBOX. I'm wondering if anyone actually prefers this behavior when the error is temporary? For example if some index file corruption was detected, the save will most likely succeed the next time it's attempted. Or if the redirect fails because the SMTP server can't be connected to at the moment. So I was thinking about changing v2.2 LDA/LMTP to simply return temporary failure instead of saving the mail to INBOX.

Check out the "slurp" plugin and let your MTA deliver mails to, say, /var/mail/<uid> . You will have no Sieve rules then, I think. However, some sort of quota enforcing you will need there, too. - -- Steffen Kaiser ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.

[Dovecot] Sieve/pigeonhole with Exim and Dovecot LDA
by Sebastian Arcus 30 May '13

30 May '13

I am trying to configure my Dovecot installation to provide Vacation/Out-of-the-office emails using the Sieve plugin. My setup is a little bit peculiar: Internet Internet | ^ V | Provider's POP3 server Provider's SMTP server | ^ V | -------------- getmail | my server | | V | Dovecot LDA ---> Sieve/vacation -----> Exim | V Dovecot my server --------------- Sorry for the ASCII art above - I thought it would be quicker than trying to explain. The trouble I'm having is getting the Dovecot LDA to send successfully through the local exim instance out-of-office replies back to the provider's smtp server - when receiving fresh email from the provider (through getmail). Dovecot LDA tries to send the replies - but Exim freezes them because they don't contain the sender data in the format Exim wants it. Exim can either receive sender info: 1. On the command line, after the "-f" command line switch (but only when called by root or other users passed under "trusted_users" in exim.conf). 2. In the header of the email - in the "From:" field - but only, apparently, if it was called with the "-t" switch. Full exim command line documentation here: http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_exim_comman… I can't figure out what command line options the Dovecot LDA is using when calling exim. I also couldn't find a way to get Dovecot LDA to pass extra options to exim, when trying to send email. The exim log has the following: 2013-05-20 15:35:15 1UeRBB-0001xc-Ar Frozen (message created with -f <>) I've inspected the frozen message - and it has the correct sender in the "From:" field - but it seems that exim isn't using that, because it wasn't called with the "-t" option. In dovecot.conf, I have the following for Dovecot LDA and sieve: protocols = imap sieve protocol lda { log_path = /var/log/dovecot/dovecot-deliver.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/dovecot-deliver-info.log postmaster_address = admin(a)mydomain.co.uk hostname = mydomain.co.uk mail_plugins = sieve mail_plugin_dir = /usr/lib/dovecot sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/exim } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } Dovecot LDA is called by getmail using the vmail user - and using the same user it is trying to call exim to deliver the out-of-office replies. I'm using Dovecot 2.2.1 with pigeonhole 0.4.0. I can post the rest of dovecot.conf if it would help. I've read through the stuff at dovecot.org - but all the Dovecot LDA and exim info refers to Exim passing email to Dovecot using Dovecot LDA - not Dovecot LDA sending email out using Exim.
