[Dovecot] Info about sharing mail folder
by Gianluca Calloni 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hi to all. First of all.. I'm new on the mailing list.. So.. Sorry in advance for any mistake or error on posting here.. The question (or doubt..) is about sharing mail folder. I use a test mail server. Is not the production server (always dovecot + postfix + spamassassin + clamav) Well.. In test mail server i can use the share folder, follow the conf istruction on wiki dovecot. And work fine. But i need to know if is possible for user_a(a)mydomain.com to share only 1 or 2 subfolder (E.g. .INBOX.FOLDER_A and .INBOX.FOLDER_B shared, .INBOX_FOLDER_C not shared) When i do some test sharing folder, the user with wich user_a(a)mydomain.com share the mailbox can view all the subfolder of user_a(a)mydomain.com Following my dovecot versione e config. Thank's in advance My dovecot version is 2.0.19 My dovecot conf is : # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf doveconf: Fatal: open(/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf) failed: Permission denied calloni@dovecot:~$ sudo -i [sudo] password for calloni: root@dovecot:~# dovecot -n # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.5.0-49-generic i686 Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS ext4 dict { acl = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext } disable_plaintext_auth = no first_valid_uid = 150 last_valid_uid = 150 mail_gid = mail mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%u mail_plugins = acl mail_uid = vmail namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / type = private } namespace { list = yes location = maildir:%%h:INDEX=~/shared/%%u prefix = shared/%%u/ separator = / subscriptions = no type = shared } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { acl = vfile acl_shared_dict = proxy::acl } postmaster_address = postmaster(a)jodovit.local protocols = " imap pop3" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = mail mode = 0600 user = vmail } } service dict { unix_listener dict { group = mail mode = 0600 user = vmail } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } Thi

Thanks for the suggestion, we have had another occurrence of the wrong ownership on the dovecot-uid today.

Not offhand, but if you want a remote tool, it ought to be simple to cobble together some feeder script and netcat (or openssl s_client). It will also be simpler if you configure the master password feature so you don't have access to all user passwords. So something like this for dumping the INBOX contents #!/bin/sh master-user=masteru master-password=masterp while read user server; do netcat --ssl $server 993 <<_EOF_ >${user}.report 1 LOGIN ${user}*${master-user} ${master-password) 2 SELECT INBOX 3 ... 4 LOGOUT _EOF_ done I don't know enough IMAP to fill in "3 ..." to dump all headers, but I'm sure it's not hard to find out. It's even simpler if you don't need to do it remotely: just use doveadm fetch -A hdr MAILBOX '*' Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[Dovecot] list all emails from command line?
by Tomasz Chmielewski 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

This is not strictly Dovecot question, but a more general IMAP one. I'm running a Dovecot server and have a user who is claiming that some email sent to him, say, on 30 May, showed up in his mailbox on 02 Jun. I've checked Postfix logs, and the message was correctly received on 30 May and passed to Dovecot. A similar issue happens every few days. This leaves me with two possibilities: 1) Dovecot is somehow not presenting the new mail to the user in a "timely manner" 2) user's email program is broken Therefore, I wanted to do some kind of "IMAP list" of the account, with a command line tool: - specify username, pass and server, - the tool would return a list of all email in their folders (message ID, From, To, Date, Subject). I would run it i.e. daily and this would let me verify when the mail was really visible in the account. Is anyone aware of a tool I could use to achieve that? -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://www.sslrack.com

[Dovecot] dovecot: lda(foo): Error: User foo doesn't have home dir set, disabling duplicate database
by Christian Hoffmann 02 Jun '14

02 Jun '14

Hello everyone, I have a small problem with dovecot installed on ubuntu-13.10. I use dovcot as LDA with a LDAP-passdb and a pam-passdb. The userdb is static. A mail to LDAP-user 'foo' is delivered with the error-message dovecot: lda(foo): Error: User foo doesn't have home dir set, disabling duplicate database A mail to the pam-user 'bar' will deliverd without this error. But both users should work with the static-userdb. Where is my mistake?

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2 | Creating message rules
by Jos Chrispijn 02 Jun '14

02 Jun '14

Can someone explain how I can create message rules to use with this version of Dovecot? I specially switched to this version because it supports then Pigeonhole Sieve. I would like to volunteer to contribute as a volunteer when someone would like to create a html driven user interface that provides a user friendly configuration interface and would make such configuration a piece of cake. -- Best regards, Jos Chrispijn --- Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.1.13: some questions about the mail-filter plugin
by Axel Luttgens 02 Jun '14

02 Jun '14

Looking at mail_filter_mailbox_allocated() of src/plugins/mail-filter/mail-filter-plugin.c: if ((class_flags & MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_OPEN_STREAMS) == 0 && (class_flags & MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_BINARY_DATA) != 0 && muser->out_socket_path != NULL) v->save_begin = mail_filter_mail_save_begin; it seems that a backend with MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_OPEN_STREAMS unset and MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_BINARY_DATA set is expected by the plugin. Technically, this would thus exclude the mbox backend, since its flag configuration seems to be exactly the opposite: struct mail_storage mbox_storage = { .name = MBOX_STORAGE_NAME, .class_flags = MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_MAILBOX_IS_FILE | MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_OPEN_STREAMS | MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_HAVE_MAIL_GUIDS, [...] Is this a correct interpretation? If yes, what is the rationale? I couldn't find any info related to such a limitation in the docs; the README file of http://dovecot.org/patches/2.2/mail-filter.tar.gz even says: "Mail filter plugin can read an email from any storage supported by Dovecot and modify the mail in some way"... All of this stems from my attempts to have working mail filters when I was trying to better understand the behaviors Stanislas was describing in a recent thread... Hence another question; in sdbox-storage.c, the definition of the "alias" for sdbox comes with: struct mail_storage dbox_storage = { .name = "dbox", /* alias */ .class_flags = MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_FILE_PER_MSG, [...] The initialization of member class_flags seems to be incomplete, when compared to the one for the name "sdbox". A typo? On the other hand, Stanislas showed a configuration with mail_location = dbox:/mailboxes/%Ld/%Ln and seemed to have a working mail filter. If above interpretation is correct, this would mean that the "alias" definition isn't used, but that the one for "sdbox" is used instead. Out of curiosity, how/where is that substitution achieved? Regards, Axel
