[Dovecot] problem with proxy setup
by Claus 23 May '13

23 May '13

Hi all, i have some troubles in the implementation of my proxyconfiguration. i have two kind of users, the first will be proxied to a dovecot backend with masteruser-login, the other one will be proxied to another non-dovecot imapserver with nopassword. Everything looks to work if i use passwd-file like this: user1:{PLAIN}pass1:::::::proxy=y host=192.168.1.1 destuser=user1*masteruser pass=masterpass user2::::::::nopassword proxy=y host=192.168.2.2 In an second step i try the same behavior with sql (postgresql), but there are my problems. In my thinking, the sql query should return the right fields (in passwd-file) like proxy, host, .. but whats the trick, to get only the correct fields i need for the different funktions? first proxy, host, destuser, pass and on the other side nopassword, proxy and host. Maybe i have mistakes in reasoning, but in sql i get in one query always the same fields. I hope someone can give me some hints an tricks. thanks, Claus

[Dovecot] should dovecot store maildir files with CRLF or LF?
by Christoph Anton Mitterer 22 May '13

22 May '13

Hi. I've made a strange observation. When having Dovecot (at least) with maildir and moving (via IMAP) mail received by some client (Evolution 3.4) into it the following happens: Regardless of whether the mail was originally(!) set with CRLF or LF (i.e. when I use netcat to submit the plain SMTP to the relaying MTA). When the client (Evolution) had received the mail via POP3 before moving it via IMAP into Dovecot... then the maildir file within dovecot is all LF. When the client however received it via IMAP, before in turn moving it on via IMAP into Dovecot, then the maildir file is mixed CRLF and LF, i.e. the body is CRLF, the headers are terminated... Well the actually bug here is probably in Evolution (as so many others... o.O)... but I wondered... what is Dovecot expected to write files? Platform end-of-line markers (i.e. LF in case of UNIX) or always network end-of-line markers (CRLF)? Cheers, Chris.

[Dovecot] ACLs - creating new top level folders
by Ingo Rogalsky 22 May '13

22 May '13

Hi, I'm wondering, whether it's possible, to define an ACL on the mailbox itself. We use Dovecot 1.2.15 (included in Debian 6) and maildir filesystem layout: /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/new \ /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/cur Inbox /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/tmp / /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/.folder1/new \ /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/.folder1/cur folder1 /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/.folder1/tmp / ... Assigning an ACL with full access rights for user2 to the folder Inbox works as expected. user2 can create subfolders of Inbox, too. But he can't create a new folder like folder1 parallel to Inbox. Is there a possibility of defining an ACL on the mailbox of user1 itself? Or do we need to create all subfolders beneath Inbox like this is usual with other IMAP servers?

[Dovecot] dsync-2.2.2 incorrectly synchronizes subscription status of deleted mailbox
by Karol Jurak 22 May '13

22 May '13

Hi, It seems that dsync-2.2.2 doesn't correctly synchronize subscription status of a deleted mailbox. The situation is as follows. There are two servers: A and B, and a test user test_mdbox. Mailboxes (mdbox) of this user on both servers are synchronized. Specifically on both of them there is a Trash/x mailbox. Replication plugin is disabled. I delete Thrash/x mailbox on A with Thunderbird. The relevant IMAP commands issued are: 71 87.068176 10.4.0.13 10.1.107.144 IMAP Request: 9 delete "Trash/x" 72 87.072238 10.1.107.144 10.4.0.13 IMAP Response: 9 OK Delete completed. 73 87.073736 10.4.0.13 10.1.107.144 IMAP Request: 10 unsubscribe "Trash/x" 74 87.085263 10.1.107.144 10.4.0.13 IMAP Response: 10 OK Unsubscribe completed. Inspecting output of 'doveadm mailbox list' and contents of subscriptions file shows that everything is as expected, ie. mailbox was deleted and unsubscribed. Moreover in dovecot.mailbox.log on A the following records appear: #480: delete-mailbox 3f3eb117a51c9a51d8280000f671379f (2013-05-20 14:54:40) #504: delete-dir f91e44cab57821aa456b525c7a2f1d7e (2013-05-20 14:54:40) #528: unsubscribe f91e44cab57821aa456b525c7a2f1d7e (2013-05-20 14:54:40) Subsequently I run 'doveadm sync -u test_mdbox -d'. It causes an entry for Thrash/x to reappear in subscriptions file on both servers and the following records are appended to dovecot.mailbox.log on B: #2112: delete-mailbox 3f3eb117a51c9a51d8280000f671379f (2013-05-20 14:55:49) #2136: delete-dir f91e44cab57821aa456b525c7a2f1d7e (2013-05-20 14:55:49) On A this record is added: #552: subscribe f91e44cab57821aa456b525c7a2f1d7e (2013-05-20 14:55:49) So, in described situation, dsync subscribes a mailbox on a server it was deleted on instead of unsubscribing it on the other one. -- Karol Jurak
