Dovecot >=2.2.29 + Filesystem quota = incorrect storage information
by Macka 18 Oct '17

Hi, I have problem with quota storage information in dovecot-2.2.29 (and newer versions, too - 2.2.30.2). I use FS quota backend. ............................ # 2.2.29.1 (e0b76e3): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 4.4.68-1 x86_64 mail_plugins = quota plugin { quota = fs:User quota:mount=/poczta:user quota2 = fs:Group quota:mount=/poczta:group } protocol imap { mail_max_userip_connections = 10 mail_plugins = "imap_quota mail_log notify antispam" } ................................. After upgrade from 2.2.27 to 2.2.29 (newest 2.2.30.2 too), dovecot returns incorrect informations about quota storage: # doveadm quota get -u myusername Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 10960896 100000 10960 or # ( echo "A1 GETQUOTAROOT INBOX"; echo "A2 logout" ) | /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap -u myusername * PREAUTH [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT MULTIAPPEND URL-PARTIAL CATENATE UNSELECT CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS BINARY MOVE NOTIFY SPECIAL-USE QUOTA] Logged in as myusername imap(myusername): Info: Logged out in=31 out=588 * QUOTAROOT INBOX "User quota" * QUOTA "User quota" (STORAGE 10960896 100000) A1 OK Getquotaroot completed (0.001 + 0.000 secs). * BYE Logging out A2 OK Logout completed (0.001 + 0.000 secs).

Question about ITERINDEX in 2.2.32
by María Arrea 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

Hello I have a question about the new setting ITERINDEX. This is my filesystem layout /indices_dovecot : 8 x Fast SSD drives /buzones : 32x SAS 10k rpm disks /buzones/alternativo : 24 x SAS 7.2k rpm slow disks This is my mail_location: mail_location = mdbox:/buzones/domain/%2.26Hn/%2.200Hn/%n:INDEX=/indices_dovecot/indices/%2.26Hn/%2.200Hn/%n:ALT=/buzones/alternativo/domain/%2.26Hn/%2.200Hn/%n What should I write in mail_location with the new ITERINDEX setting? Regards María

Setting up replication - First steps...
by SH Development 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

Just had my first (non-Dovecot) server failure due to dried out caps on the motherboard. Got me to thinking about my single-point-of-failure mail server. Currently running Dovecot and Postfix with no issues, but want to start taking steps just to be safe. I currently run a filesystem backup every 24 hours to a tar file over NFS to another server in our rack. I am backing up: /home/vmail /etc/dovecot /etc/postfix Unfortunately, the vmail directory has grown to 27GB and takes around 7 hours now to backup as described above. Which leads me to start thinking about how quickly I could restore the server from a backup if need be, and that time is at least 7 hours just to copy and untar the files onto another hard drive. I’m sure I could hook up a HD up directly to the backup server, then I could considerably reduce the time, but I’m making the assumption that I won’t always have quick physical access to the location. So I believe my first step is to set up another server, on another IP, different hostname, with Dovecot and Postfix, and simply use the files from the /etc directories of the existing server to configure it (changing the IP and hostname of course). Am I on the right track so far? Next steps involve setting up replication with dsync? If I have successfully setup replication between the two servers, does this mean users can then actually log into either server and have their “stuff” intact? So I could set up DNS failover in case the primary server fails? Would this make the setup acceptable for secondary MX as everything should sync to the primary server when it comes back online? Sorry for thinking out loud, but I want to make sure I’m understanding the bigger picture here. Jeff

Quota - frustrated trying to configure ...
by Garry Glendown 02 Oct '17

02 Oct '17

Hi, after fighting Dovecot almost every step of the way, I have finally gotten most of the functions configured on a customer box (used Cyrus on a previous install, but it was dropped from SLES 12 ...) The mail server setup uses LDAP for user authentication, has a central maildir tree (.../dovecot/maildir/<USER>/...) that is used for all users' mail, sieve is also running well. The users themselves are just virtual users, they do not have a local home directory or anything. I was now trying to get Quota to work ... Looking at the Wiki more or less showed the same "spotty" results of the rest of the Wiki. Fine for anybody that needs the documentation just as a reference, but somewhat lacking for someone that does not have experience in setting up Dovecot. I tried following the wiki, as well as checking on other web pages I came across. In order to keep the setup simple, and not have to jump through hoops to set up any SQL backup etc., I tried using a file-based storage of the quota entries, as in: dict { quota = file:/data/dovecot/db/quota.db } I also added quota entries in the other places I believe are necessary, and set up a rule like this: plugin { quota_rule = *:storage=1G quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M } I got through dovecot restart without errors, and IMAP still answers. But attempting to do a recalculation of the current quota usage ends up with this error: doveadm(root): Error: chdir(/root/) failed: Permission denied (euid=479(dovecot) egid=478(dovecot) missing +x perm: /root, dir owned by 0:0 mode=0700) doveadm(root): Error: chdir(/root) failed: Permission denied It looks like dovecot doesn't actually attempt to look at the central maildir, but instead seems to attempt to enter the current user's homedir (which, in this case, is root). What am I (possibly) missing here? Is this way of setting it up even viable? While I need a general per-user-quota, I also need the ability to overwrite each user's default quota ... is there any recommendable more detailed documentation on how to set up quota? Thanks, -garry

imapc and masteruser
by Computerisms Corporation 29 Sep '17

29 Sep '17

Hi, My end goal is to set up shared mailboxes on a cluster as per: https://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/ClusterSetup I was having very little luck with it, so I had been trying to break down into pieces and get individual components working. So I have things setup on a single server, with a working dovecot instance. I have no director or any thing else running yet, and I am just trying to get the imapc portion of things working. Eventually I came across a post from Sven Hartge: https://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2012-November/087046.html This is from several years ago, but I set up a separate dovecot instance on port 9993 specifically to run the shared folders as he describes, and copied his configuration suggestions pretty much verbatim. The only signficant difference is that I needed to not configure the imapc_user as he had done, and instead as the wiki suggests remove that config option entirely. With this, the imapc connection is being made from the primary instance on port 993 to the shared instance on port 9993. My problem is that it doesn't appear that the imapc_master_user is being fully acknowledged. The imapc connection must be made with the original user logging in as the master user to the shared user's account, else the ACLs can't do what they are supposed to do. It does appear the original user is being used to authenticate, maybe, at the very least it is being offered in the imapc connection, but not as a master user. To illustrate, I have two snippets of logs below. The first is from the shared folders instance on port 9993 after logging into the primary server on port 993, which triggers the imapc connection. This shows the user bob.test, who is the imapc_master_user as defined by %u, being acknowledged and then having the username changed to that of my shared user, in this case authapps. Further down, we can see that the auth_user is bob.test, but there is no master user, and the acl username at the bottom of the snipped remains that of my shared user. Below that, I have the same snippet of log, as obtained by connecting with openssl s_client to the shared instance on port 9993, with the string: a login authapps*bob.test XXXXXXX In order to get this working, I need to add to the shared instance's config file a static userdb like so: userdb { driver = static } this snippet shows the masteruser working as expected, and the acl username being that of the master user. Unfortunately, it has no apparent effect on the imapc login. So it seems master user logins work, just not through imapc. I note at the top of the first snippet, before the change in username, it appears the imapc connection is being directed to the static passdb, which I think is triggering the username change, where as the second snippet, the connection is starting with the ldap passdb. but no amount of playing "configuration file options" chairs has led me to a working solution. I am hoping someone can provide some insight as to what I am missing here. doveconf -n for both instances are pasted below the log snippets.

Securing postfix to dovecot (SASL) auth
by Raymond Sellars 29 Sep '17

29 Sep '17

Hi Is it possible to secure the Dovecot SASL auth provider for postfix? https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL I'm currently using the inet option to provide SASL auth to postfix for dovecot. Both installs are on different hosts hence the use of inet rather than unix socket. I'm looking for the best way to secure this channel (rather than just assuming the VLAN is secure ) ,e.g. TLS. It would seem even the latest versions of dovecot/postfix3 don't support encrypting this channel? Has anyone managed to implement a secure internal approach they can share? I'm wondering if Postfix with Cyrus against IMAP using STARTTLS is my best alternative. Thanks Raymond

Conditionally disabling auth policy
by Mark Moseley 29 Sep '17

29 Sep '17

I've been digging into the auth policy stuff with weakforced lately. There are cases (IP ranges, so could be wrapped up in remote {} blocks) where it'd be nice to skip the auth policy (internal hosts that I can trust, but that are hitting the same servers as the outside world). Is there any way to disable auth policy, possibly inside a remote{}? auth_policy_server_url complains that it can't be used inside a remote block, so no dice there. Anything I'm missing?
