Outlook Express and STARTTLS
by Robert Moskowitz 23 Nov '14

23 Nov '14

I have one user that uses Outlook Express. Not only do I not use it, I don't have any systems here that can easily use it. I bit of a challenge. I am strictly enforcing STARTTLS or TLS for SMTP/POP3/IMAP connections. SO far a google search has not shown me how to configure this for a user. Anyone have a pointer to instructions so I can talk the person through the changes?

Static build failure
by Baruch Siach 23 Nov '14

23 Nov '14

Hi dovecot list, Static build of dovecot fails because src/lib/module-dir.c refers to MODULE_SUFFIX that is undefined when building statically. This least to the following build failure: module-dir.c: In function 'module_file_get_name': module-dir.c:624:20: error: 'MODULE_SUFFIX' undeclared (first use in this function) p = strstr(fname, MODULE_SUFFIX); ^ The following somewhat inelegant patch fixes the problem. diff -Nuar dovecot-2.2.15-orig/src/lib/module-dir.c dovecot-2.2.15/src/lib/module-dir.c --- dovecot-2.2.15-orig/src/lib/module-dir.c 2014-10-18 00:10:15.000000000 +0300 +++ dovecot-2.2.15/src/lib/module-dir.c 2014-11-13 19:27:29.417786313 +0200 @@ -621,7 +621,11 @@ if (*p == '_') fname = p + 1; +#ifdef MODULE_SUFFIX p = strstr(fname, MODULE_SUFFIX); +#else + p = NULL; +#endif if (p == NULL) return fname; baruch -- http://baruch.siach.name/blog/ ~. .~ Tk Open Systems =}------------------------------------------------ooO--U--Ooo------------{= - baruch(a)tkos.co.il - tel: +972.2.679.5364, http://www.tkos.co.il -

Prevent a message from be deleted but not from be moved
by Bruno Galindro da Costa 22 Nov '14

22 Nov '14

Is it possible to prevent a message from be deleted but not from be moved to another mailbox via ACL? I need this because I'm using antispam plugin with the mailtrain backend. It calls a script every time a message is moved to/from a monitored spam mailbox. But, if the user deletes a message from the spam folder, the script is executed with the option to train the antispam to consider that excluded message as a non spam. So, what I need is to prevent the user from delete a message from the spam mailbox, but I want to permit the user to move a menssage from the spam mailbox to another mailbox. -- Att.

You have the directory entries .dovecot.sieve and .subscriptions, which is anyway a directory indeed, so that's not even a bug. Move all your maildirs to /home/mail/%d/%u/Maildir and then update mail_location accordingly. Then move out the sieve files - .dovecot.sieve, sieve/, .dovecot.sieve.log, .dovecot.svbin to the home directory. It looks like these are not system users, so you may need to set mail_home explicitly to set up the home directory to /home/mail/%d/%u See http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Maildir http://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home > > root@fastmail:/home/mail/a.com/a@a.com# l > total 108 > drwx------ 13 5000 5000 4096 Nov 20 22:19 ./ > drwx------ 3 5000 5000 4096 Nov 3 23:06 ../ > drwx------ 2 5000 5000 4096 Nov 20 22:07 cur/ > -rw------- 1 5000 5000 9920 Nov 21 03:25 dovecot.index.cache > -rw------- 1 5000 5000 12908 Nov 20 22:19 dovecot.index.log > -rw------- 1 5000 5000 202 Nov 10 22:35 .dovecot.lda-dupes > -rw------- 1 5000 5000 312 Nov 10 22:23 dovecot.mailbox.log > lrwxrwxrwx 1 5000 5000 23 Nov 9 12:21 .dovecot.sieve -> > sieve/managesieve.sieve > -rw------- 1 5000 5000 461 Nov 9 12:28 .dovecot.sieve.log > -rw------- 1 5000 5000 270 Nov 9 15:43 .dovecot.svbin > -rw------- 1 5000 5000 782 Nov 19 23:26 dovecot-uidlist > -rw------- 1 5000 5000 8 Nov 8 16:32 dovecot-uidvalidity > -r--r--r-- 1 5000 5000 0 Nov 3 23:06 dovecot-uidvalidity.54580a72 > drwx------ 5 5000 5000 4096 Nov 8 16:33 .Drafts/ > drwx------ 5 5000 5000 4096 Nov 8 16:33 .Junk/ > drwx------ 5 5000 5000 4096 Nov 8 18:50 .Junk E-mail/ > drwx------ 2 5000 5000 4096 Nov 19 23:44 new/ > drwx------ 5 5000 5000 4096 Nov 8 16:33 .ola ' aaaa \r/ > drwx------ 5 5000 5000 4096 Nov 8 16:33 .Sent Items/ > drwx------ 3 5000 5000 4096 Nov 9 15:42 sieve/ > -rw------- 1 5000 5000 69 Nov 10 22:23 subscriptions > drwx------ 5 5000 5000 4096 Nov 8 21:15 .subscriptions/ > drwx------ 2 5000 5000 4096 Nov 19 23:26 tmp/ > drwx------ 5 5000 5000 4096 Nov 8 21:15 .Trash/ > root@fastmail:/home/mail/a.com/a@a.com# > > > doveconf: > # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf > # OS: Linux 3.14.23x x86_64 Debian 7.6 ext4 > auth_mechanisms = plain login > dict { > sqlquota = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext > } > disable_plaintext_auth = no > listen = * > login_greeting = myserver > mail_location = maildir:/home/mail/%d/%u > mail_plugins = quota > 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 > namespace inbox { > inbox = yes > location = > mailbox Drafts { > special_use = \Drafts > } > mailbox Junk { > special_use = \Junk > } > mailbox Sent { > special_use = \Sent > } > mailbox "Sent Messages" { > special_use = \Sent > } > mailbox Trash { > special_use = \Trash > } > prefix = > } > passdb { > args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext > driver = sql > } > plugin { > quota = dict:User Quota::proxy::sqlquota > quota_exceeded_message = Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) / Conta > de destino cheia (o email de destino tem a caixa cheia) > quota_rule = *:storage=100M > sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve > sieve_dir = ~/sieve > sieve_max_script_size = 10M > } > postmaster_address = trash(a)email.pt > protocols = imap lmtp pop3 sieve > service dict { > unix_listener dict { > mode = 0777 > } > } > service imap { > process_limit = 1024 > } > service lmtp { > inet_listener lmtp { > address = 0.0.0.0 > port = 24 > } > process_min_avail = 10 > unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { > group = postfix > mode = 0666 > user = postfix > } > } > service pop3-login { > inet_listener pop3 { > port = 110 > } > } > service pop3 { > process_limit = 1024 > } > ssl = no > ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/dovecot.pem > ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem > userdb { > args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext > driver = sql > } > protocol lmtp { > mail_plugins = quota sieve > } > protocol imap { > mail_plugins = quota imap_quota > }

There are a number of funny things here. First of all, dovecot.sieve belongs in the *home* directory, not in Maildir. The home directory can be, typically, the parent directory of the Maildir. Like in: domains/example.com/user1/Maildir - the user1/ is the home directory and dovecot.sieve lives there. Would you please post your complete dovecot config (output of the command: dovecot -n) and also an example output of ls -la of your directory structure? See also http://dovecot.org/mailinglists.html

I am expecting better things with this new server, but I was use to some login information in logwatch that I am not seeing now.
