migrate courier to dovecot and forward mail like maildrop does it
by Markus Rosjat 07 Sep '17

07 Sep '17

Hi there, I was wondering what's the way to go if I want to migrate my courier/maildrop setup to dovecot/sieve? Is it even possible or do I need something else? The approach of using maildrop with postfix just hit the fan because I'm to dumb to configure it :( so with maildrop I have a .mailfilter file with cc "!some_email(a)some_domain.tld" and this just works like a charm with courier and maildrop but whats the equivalent in dovecote and the sieve plugin ? regards -- Markus Rosjat fon: +49 351 8107223 mail: rosjat(a)ghweb.de G+H Webservice GbR Gorzolla, Herrmann Königsbrücker Str. 70, 01099 Dresden http://www.ghweb.de fon: +49 351 8107220 fax: +49 351 8107227 Bitte prüfen Sie, ob diese Mail wirklich ausgedruckt werden muss!

Hi all :) I will try to use /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver instead of postfix. I'd like automatically move email to junk folder. I use debian 9. cat /etc/postfix/master.cf [...] spamassassin unix - n n - - pipe user=debian-spamd argv=/usr/bin/spamc -f -e /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient} with this line dovecot works perfectly but only with virtual users, my system has also system users /etc/passwd How to tell dovecot to deliver email also to real system users?

Improve dovecot logging
by Slobodan Zdravkovic 06 Sep '17

06 Sep '17

In case when user login with pop3 and only download only mail headers (partial download), but not email body, there is nothing in mail.log Is it possible to configure one of the existing dovecot plugins to log actions like TOP and LIST or is it possible to write new plugin for dovecot which can fetch this actions ?

pam authentication
by Pol Hallen 05 Sep '17

Hello all I use debian 9 with dovecot 2.x: real system users and virtual users: almost all works perfectly ;) Virtual users can connect via imap and pop using name + domain name: user00(a)domain1.org, etc. pam (real system users) users can connect via imap and pop ONLY without domain name It's a problem with pam authentication because linux make users authentication with only username (and not with also domain name) but I'd like user full email like test00(a)realdomain.org cat /etc/dovecot/conf.d/auth-passwdfile.conf.ext passdb { driver = passwd-file args = scheme=SHA256 username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users } userdb { driver = passwd-file args = scheme=SHA256 username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users } cat /etc/dovecot/conf.d/auth-system.conf.ext passdb { driver = pam } userdb { driver = passwd } inside /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf [...] #auth_username_format = %n is commented because I've multiple domains cat /var/log/dovecot.debug Sep 05 01:49:51 auth: Debug: Read auth token secret from /var/run/dovecot/auth-token-secret.dat Sep 05 01:49:51 auth: Debug: passwd-file /etc/dovecot/users: Read 4 users in 0 secs Sep 05 01:49:51 auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=23412) Sep 05 01:49:51 auth: Debug: client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=imap secured session=hjdhgfghhg lip=192.168.1.100 rip=192.168.1.100 lport=143 rport=39356 resp=hsdfhsfddfjk jklsdfkljkdlskfljsdkjlfds== (previous base64 data may contain sensitive data) Sep 05 01:49:51 auth-worker(23414): Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth Sep 05 01:49:51 auth-worker(23414): Debug: passwd-file /etc/dovecot/users: Read 4 users in 0 secs Sep 05 01:49:51 auth-worker(23414): Debug: pam(test(a)realdomain.org,192.168.1.100,<PitAxGVYvJnAqAFk>): lookup service=dovecot Sep 05 01:49:51 auth-worker(23414): Debug: pam(test(a)realdomain.org,192.168.1.100,<PitAxGVYvJnAqAFk>): #1/1 style=1 msg=Password: Sep 05 01:49:53 auth: Debug: passwd-file(test(a)realdomain.org,192.168.1.100,<PitAxGVYvJnAqAFk>): lookup: user=test(a)realdomain.org file=/etc/dovecot/users Sep 05 01:49:55 auth: Debug: client passdb out: FAIL 1 user=test(a)realdomain.com Sep 05 01:51:15 auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth Sep 05 01:51:15 auth: Debug: Read auth token secret from /var/run/dovecot/auth-token-secret.dat Sep 05 01:51:15 auth: Debug: passwd-file /etc/dovecot/users: Read 4 users in 0 secs Sep 05 01:51:15 auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=23461) Sep 05 01:51:26 auth: Debug: client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=imap secured session=ycnxyWVYQYokInmi lip=192.168.0.2 rip=36.34.121.162 lport=993 rport=35393 Sep 05 0 any idea? thanks for help!

AW: problem with shared folders and acls - only able to share INBOX

Hi, i found the solution for my problem (RTFM) doveadm acl debug => Folder \.Subfolder cannot be accessed => dots in maildir format I added a 'Layout=fs' to the namespace definition. Thanks and cheers Christian -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Christian Eisert [mailto:christian.eisert@gmx.net] Gesendet: Freitag, 1.

The ACLs seem to be set right. I have the suspicion that the dictionary ( /var/lib/dovecot/db/shared-mailboxes.db ) is not updated - there are no entries for the sub folders I just cannot find the problem within my configuration.

questions concerning dovecot
by Rajesh M 04 Sep '17

04 Sep '17

hello all had some basic questions 1) what is the logic behind the numbering of files in the conf.d folder ... is this to define the sequence of execution of the config files ? 2) Concerning global scripts, is the default.sieve, before i understand that they get executed when the user does not have his private sieve script. are sieve_before, sieve_after and sieve_global_path all globalscripts ? thanks rajesh

After a filesystem crash dovecot isn't able to repair some of the m-Files. That's okay in general -- but I wonder why he's complaining about "wrong dsync version" if I execute "doveadm force-resync" locally: doveadm(user(a)mailbox.org): Warning: mdbox /mail-mailbox/mailbox.org/1846405//mdbox/storage: rebuilding indexes doveadm(user(a)mailbox.org): Error: Corrupted dbox file /xxxx//mdbox/storage/m.340 (around offset=154): Invalid dbox version I would accept every log that it's too broken to be repaired, but "Invalid dbox version"?
