Restoring mailboxes from backup duplicates messages in POP clients

Hello I had a disk problem and had to reformat it. All mailboxes were backed up using rsync. After I restored the mailboxes, the POP clients (Thunderbird) that were configured to leave the messages on the mailserver for, let's say, 30 days, didn't understand that some messages were already transfered and the users got duplicated messages in their Inbox. How can we avoid this? -- Thanks Luís F. Gomes IT Manager (55)(21) 3527-1220 Departamento de Engenharia Elétrica PUC-Rio R. Marques de S. Vicente 225/401L 22451-900 - Rio de Janeiro/RJ

Trying to track down source of duplicate messages
by Alex 02 Apr '19

Hi, I have a fedora28 system with dovecot-2.3.5 and I'm trying to figure out why I'm increasingly receiving duplicate emails. The message IDs are exactly the same. It's always two of the same messages. I don't think it's ever occurred in the inbox. It doesn't happen with every message or seemingly in every folder. I've read about dovecot deduplicate, but of course I want to prevent them from being duplicated in the first place. It's also happening much more frequently now. Could something in my configuration cause this problem? Below is the contents of my doveconf # 2.3.5 (513208660): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.5.5 (2483b085) # OS: Linux 4.20.11-100.fc28.x86_64 x86_64 Fedora release 28 (Twenty Eight) #

mail_crypt not working on incoming messages?
by Dave 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

[Dovecot v2.2.33.2] I'm testing out mail_crypt on a fresh Dovecot install to get a feel for how it works, but I'm running into something unexpected. The mail_crypt plugin does seem to be working, but NOT on incoming email. What I mean is, if I send a test email to the server that has Dovecot installed, the message correctly arrives in the user's Maildir folder (I'm using Maildir format, not mbox), as I can see the mail message file appear. However, the message file is in plaintext and is not encrypted. But, if, using my Thunderbird email client connected to that account via IMAP, I move that message out of the inbox of that account to a folder on another account, and then move it back in to the original inbox, the file that appears in the Maildir folder structure IS encrypted. I have confirmed that mail_crypt is active in 10-mail.conf, 20-imap.conf, and 20-pop3.conf. The global public and private keys are working because (a) there are no errors and (b) it DOES encrypt -- just not on incoming email. mail_crypt_save_version is set 2, as per the docs for Dovecot 2 instruct. What am I missing? Does anyone have any thoughts as to why JUST incoming messages aren't encrypted, but that messages moved into the IMAP account DO get encrypted? Did I set up something incorrectly? I'm using sendmail as the MTA, if that matters, and messages are routed to the user's Maildir folder structure using a .procmailrc in that user's home folder. -Dave

dovecot ssl error message from my own connections
by Esteban L 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

Hello all, Just a minor thing. Not a big deal, because everything works fine, and I feel secure with my setup. But, I get this error message pretty much throughout the day/night, which appears to come from my own mail clients (desktop or mobile). I would like to resolve it, because it must me something (that is not good--that I may not understand), that may have other ramifications. So, here it is. date time myserver dovecot: imap-login: Debug: SSL error: SSL_read() syscall failed: Connection reset by peer Anyone have a suggestion of what this might hint to, other than obvious SSL. I tried parsing through various logs, but the most I find is just this single line. I can produce it, whenever I close my email client. Thanks in advance.

Attachment indicator

Hi, if i use 'doveadm rebuild attachments' command with maildir mailboxes, will anything happen to files with emails? For example, will file name change? Or better, will anything, which could trigger data backup, happen to files containing emails? Thanks. azur

Purges now happen 5 times faster
by Steve Litt 29 Mar '19

29 Mar '19

Hi all, I use Claws-Mail to look inside my local (same metal) Dovecot server. All incoming mail is dumped into Dovecot folders via procmail. All of a sudden today, mass purges of "marked for delete" happen about 5 times faster. The process used to be a significant productivity destroyer, but now is easy to work with. In other words, it's a good thing, but until I know why this happened, I'll have that little voice inside telling me there's some evil side effect somewhere. Does anybody know any reason this should have happened? I'm using Dovecot 2.3.5 (513208660) and Claws-Mail 3.17.3. Thanks, SteveT
