Dovecot + SAMBA4
by doys 04 Oct '16

04 Oct '16

hello, I'm new to this forum:) I couldn't found any topic with the same problem and I'm sorry for the inconvenience if there is already one. I'd like to use Dovecot with an authentification from Samba4 via Kerberos. I've followed this procedure : http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/Kerberos but I cannot connect to the domain. I have not met any difficulty with Samba ; I have others servers that are connected to the samba4 domain via samba/winbind wbinfo -u / -g et getent passwod / group works fine. I don't find the error and the logs are fruitless : Oct 4 09:03:46 mail dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=MY_IP, lip=IP_SERVER, session=<4ilrqQQ+2AAKaBFq> Oct 4 09:03:46 mail dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=MY_IP, lip=IP_SERVER, session=<7SprqQQ+2QAKaBFq> Oct 4 09:03:55 mail dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=MY_IP, lip=IP_SERVER, session=<JmjtqQQ+2gAKaBFq> Oct 4 09:03:55 mail dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=MY_IP, lip=IP_SERVER, session=<UyHuqQQ+2wAKaBFq> This is my docevot -n # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 8.6 auth_default_realm = DOMAIN.COM auth_gssapi_hostname = $ALL auth_mechanisms = gssapi auth_realms = DOMAIN.COM auth_username_translation = /@ mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir 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 = } plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = " imap pop3" ssl = no userdb { driver = static } I wish to use maildir and I wish not to have multidomain.

I think this is still the case: when I exported NFSv4, I also turned on both r/w delegation as well. The exported filesystem exhibited weird locking or slow write operations on NFS clients (e.g. "touch newfile" would take a second to complete). This went away when I turned off write delegation.

doveadm backup fails (compromised single attachment storage)
by Webert de Souza Lima 03 Oct '16

03 Oct '16

Hi, A couple of months ago I had a problem with Single Attachment Storage after infrastructure migration; All mailboxes were rsynced to another filesystem, and that may have broken Single Attachment Storage. Many, many (if not all) mailboxes show the below logs on dovecot: imap(foo(a)bar.com): Error: read(attachments-connector(zlib(/dovecotdir/mail/ bar.com/foo/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails/u.26426))) failed: read(/dovecotdir/attach/ bar.com/de/86/de8673894d6fb3f4460e3c26436eefa9a73517fa0f000452f553822367220… b/l]) failed: open(/dovecotdir/attach/ bar.com/de/86/de8673894d6fb3f4460e3c26436eefa9a73517fa0f000452f553822367220…) failed: No such file or directory When that happens, the MUA keeps syncing forever. Now, I need to migrate all mailboxes (again) to another dovecot instance (with no SAS), which works perfectly for new users but when I try to migrate users from my current dovecot server for this new server, I get such errors again, and I can't migrate: 2016-09-29T12:20:50.995934059Z Sep 29 12:20:50 dsync-server(foo(a)bar.com): Error: dsync(cf7d091311eb): read(attachments-connector(zlib(/dovecotdir/mdbox/bar.com/foo/storage/m.1))) failed: read(/dovecotdir/attach/ bar.com/0c/df/0cdf86b1920938fe3a043f87e2ee9e63dda276bd5b9fba687e4a0c63d181c… b/l]) failed: open(/dovecotdir/attach/ bar.com/0c/df/0cdf86b1920938fe3a043f87e2ee9e63dda276bd5b9fba687e4a0c63d181c…) failed: No such file or directory (last sent=mail, last recv=mail_request (EOL)) Is there a way to fix the attachments problem? (I know I can't recover such files, that's Ok) Is there a way to migrate (dsync backup) ignoring such problems? Thanks in advance.

Hi, i am stuck. Try to install shared folders - dovecot is running fine. ACL is working. But i can't get running the shared folders. Maybe someone can help. This are the relevant conf. I think i have some mistake there - perhaps in location - changed try and error - stuck: mail_home = /var/vmail/mailboxes/%d/%n mail_location = maildir:~/mail:LAYOUT=fs namespace { hidden = no ignore_on_failure = no list = children location = maildir:%%h/mail:INDEX=%h/mail/shared/%%u:CONTROL=%h/mail/shared/%%u prefix = shared/%%u/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = shared } namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Archives { auto = subscribe special_use = \Archive } mailbox Drafts { auto = subscribe special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Notes { auto = subscribe } mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox Spam { auto = subscribe special_use = \Junk } mailbox Trash { auto = subscribe special_use = \Trash } prefix = } plugin { # global acl - prevent expunche for some folder acl = vfile:/var/vmail/dovecot-acl acl_shared_dict = file:/var/vmail/db/shared-mailboxes.db } protocol imap { imap_idle_notify_interval = 15 mins mail_max_userip_connections = 30 mail_plugins = " acl imap_acl" } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " acl" } Need some hint.

Shared folder in a sharded cluster setup
by Peer Heinlein 03 Oct '16

03 Oct '16

Hi! With Dovecot Director and Proxy or the new (great!) TAG-feature from Dovecot it's easy to set up a shared IMAP-Cluster with individual local filesystems. But I'm unsure if it's possible to build a setup where shared mailboxes still can work. If user A is on Cluster (1) and user B is on (2), and Cluster (1) does not have access to the mail-home from B on (2), then user A can not reach the shared folders provided from User B on (2). I hope that there is a kind of backend-proxy-mechanism, so that the imap process of A on (1) can imap-proxy the requests for the shared folder to a node from cluster shard (2). And: To be exact, the imap process on (1) should forward the request to cluster (2) by the director system to make sure, that the connection will terminate on the right active backend of User B. This sounds like a special problem if local filesystems with mdbox are used and I now the great features of using Dovecot on Object Store, where every node can check out all mail-locations from all users. But especially on obox-systems it is very important that requests for a user are always terminated on the same backend. So how can shared folders work there?! Node (1) can not checkout the shared folders from User B if his obox storage is already active on another host (2)!

Requiring client certificate on only one interface
by Braden Thomas 02 Oct '16

02 Oct '16

Hi, I'm trying to require client certificates on only one interface. I'm running dovecot 2.1.7. There have been a couple of recent threads about this kind of configuration: http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2016-August/105244.html (Aug 2016) http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2016-February/103067.html (Feb 2016) However, these threads recommend an approach that no longer works. Specifically, the "-l" or "-P" arguments to imap-login no longer work. Is there currently a recommended way to configure dovecot like this? Braden

Bug: Shared Mailbox - Case Sensitivity
by Leander Schäfer 01 Oct '16

01 Oct '16

Hi, unfortunately I found a bug in Dovecot's ACL handling for shared mailboxes. It turns out Dovecot doesn't enforce lower casing the privileged username to whom the mailbox should be shared to. This results in a invalid configuration. Users get confused, since they passed on a valid email address in their ACL setup. /usr/local/www/default/mail/test(a)mydomain.localdomain/maildir/.Spam/dovecot-acl user=leander(a)mydomain.localdomain eilrwts ^^ works /usr/local/www/default/mail/leander(a)mydomain.localdomain/maildir/dovecot-acl user=test(a)mydomain.localdomain eilrwts ^^ works /usr/local/www/default/mail/test(a)mydomain.localdomain/maildir/.Drafts/dovecot-acl user=Leander(a)MyDomain.LocalDomain eilrwts ^^ Doesn't work Best regards Leander Schäfer
