antispam
by Matthew Broadhead 10 Jul '20

10 Jul '20

in dovecot/conf.d/90-plugin.conf i have plugin { # man antispam #setting_name = value antispam_debug_target = syslog antispam_verbose_debug = 1 antispam_backend = pipe antispam_signature = X-DSPAM-Signature # action to take on mails without signature # (used with any backend requiring a signature) # (we recommend only setting this to 'move' after verifying that the # whole setup is working) # antispam_signature_missing = move # move silently without training antispam_signature_missing = error antispam_trash = Trash antispam_spam = Junk antispam_pipe_program_spam_arg = --spam antispam_pipe_program_notspam_arg = --ham antispam_pipe_program = /usr/bin/sa-learn antispam_pipe_program_args = --username=%Lu } it seems to be going into the database ok but it doesn't seem to be applying anything it is learning. might there be some configuration option missing?

Ms Exchange vs dovecot
by Marc Roos 10 Jul '20

10 Jul '20

I have recently been working/testing with exchange 2016 and started thinking if I should even migrate to this platform. I assume more people here have experience with exchange and this idea. I was wondering if this is possible with a dovecot setup 1. public folder can be implemented with a public mailbox? 2. authorize users via groups access to mailboxes/folders of the public folder/mailbox. I think I saw ACL's with dovecot, does this compare to 'folder permissions' 3. is it possible with sieve to apply a rule on any mailbox/folder? Thus if I 'drag' a message to a folder, the sieve rule is activated?

Dovecot FTS with Solrcloud
by Patrik Peng 10 Jul '20

10 Jul '20

Greetings We are looking into a solution to set up full text search for our multiple Dovecot instances. According to the Dovecot Wiki, fts_solr is one of the recommended plugins to use. Since we have more than just a few hundred mailboxes, I guess one Solr instance will not suffice. So I took a look at SolrCloud and set up a small cluster with three nodes and shards. I have no preceding experience with Solr or SolrCloud and now it's not clear to me, how dovecot can interact with this cluster. Has anyone ever tried to setup dovecot FTS with a SolrCloud cluster and is willing to share his findings? Regards Patrik

BUG report: dbox movealt doesn't move reverse (to default location)
by Vitalii 09 Jul '20

Hi, Here is the problem that occured: #sudo doveadm -D altmove -u vv(a)vito.pp.ua all works properly and moves all storage to alt dir. However, to move it back to default storage I add '-r' by manual: #sudo doveadm -D altmove -u vv(a)vito.pp.ua -r all That seems behave like the original command ignoring '-r'. my dovecot conf: # 2.3.4.1 (f79e8e7e4): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.5.4 () # OS: Linux 4.19.0-9-amd64 x86_64 Debian 10.4 # Hostname: qemu7.internetguru.ca auth_mechanisms = plain login disable_plaintext_auth = no imapc_features = rfc822.size fetch-headers imapc_host = imap.gmail.com imapc_port = 993 imapc_ssl = imaps imapc_user = %u listen = *,[::] log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_attachment_dir = /wd640/mdbox-att/%d/%n mail_max_userip_connections = 100 mail_prefetch_count = 20 mail_privileged_group = vmail passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } plugin { quota = dict:user::file:/var/vmail/%d/%n/.quotausage sieve = /var/vmail/%d/%n/.sieve sieve_max_redirects = 25 } protocols = imap pop3 service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = vmail mode = 0600 user = vmail } user = root } service imap-login { client_limit = 1000 process_limit = 512 } service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } } service stats { unix_listener stats-reader { group = vmail mode = 0660 user = vmail } unix_listener stats-writer { group = vmail mode = 0660 user = vmail } } ssl_cert = </etc/postfix/smtpd.cert ssl_client_ca_dir = /etc/ssl/certs ssl_dh = # hidden, use -P to show it ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it userdb { driver = prefetch } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota imap_quota } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = quota pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } protocol lda { mail_plugins = sieve quota postmaster_address = postmaster(a)some.ca } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = quota sieve postmaster_address = postmaster(a)some.ca } I am using debian 10.

Hi All, I request your help on this. I have 2 dovecot test servers (IMAP protocol) installed with the following configuration. ============= [root@devap01 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-* Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.10 (Santiago) [root@devap01 ~]# dovecot --version 2.0.9 [root@devap01 ~]# postconf | grep mail_version mail_version = 2.6.6 =============== I have another server also "devap02" with the same configuration. Couple of points/questions/queries here. 1. I know these servers are having old dovecot versions. I would like to upgrade to the latest versions. Could you please suggest the steps for upgrading to the latest version in redhat (step by step details are helpful please) . If I upgrade to the latest version, will there be any impact on the existing configuration/setup? 2. Now I have added these 2 servers behind the Load Balancer. Enabled 110/143 ports on the Load Balancer FQDN (test.pop3.testing.com) and opened the firewall ports. Here I configured IMAP settings from microsoft outlook to see the emails. I gave the Incoming Mail Server & Outgoing mail server as "test.pop3.testing.com". It is configured without errors in Outlook. But I see these 2 types issues (shared storage & individual storage) a) individual separate storage - When I send 10 emails to LB FQDN ( test.pop3.testing.com) the emails are going to 2 backend servers. But when i see the emails from Outlook inbox, it shows 5 emails from one server for some time. After sometime it shows other 5 emails in the inbox. But, I am not able to see all 10 emails at same time in my inbox. Please suggest how to fix this issue? In this scenario, I have separate individual storage in both the servers. b) common shared storage - I have tried a different scenario also. I also have one common NFS storage. So, I have configured that storage in both the servers. So when I sent 10 emails, I see all the 10 emails from both the servers as it is common shared storage. But, I am not getting those 10 emails delivered into my Outlook. I have made all the configuration correctly. Please suggest what is the mistake here. Dovecot.conf ========================================================= [root@devap01 ~]# cat /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf disable_plaintext_auth = no listen = * log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log mail_location = maildir:/r3/mail/virtual/%d/%n/Maildir/ passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } pop3_uidl_format = %g protocols = imap pop3 ssl = yes ssl_cert = </etc/pki/dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/pki/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/r3/mail/virtual/%d/%n driver = static } mail_debug = no verbose_ssl = no ========================================================= Please help me here. Thanks, Kishore Potnuru

Hi, Our organisation has dependencies. There is a separate team/department who creates the servers for us. When they build a new RHEL system, the system will come up with various in-house softwares/tools. Those tools are not compatible as of now with RHEL8. So, our organisation is going with redhat 7.7 only as of today which is supported for all in-house tools also. This is my current situation: 1) I have 2 test servers which are loaded with the following configuration. ============= [root@devap01 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-* Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.10 (Santiago) [root@devap01 ~]# dovecot --version 2.0.9 [root@devap01 ~]# postconf | grep mail_version mail_version = 2.6.6 =============== So, I would like to install the max possible dovecot version on the above servers for the testing purpose. I would like to implement the HA/Resilience with those 2 servers. I have shared storage and individual storage in this environment. But I am seeing some issues with both of them ( I explained details in my first email thread). please see if you can help. 2) If it is successful, I will get two RHEL 7.7 servers to implement the same in LIVE environment for HA/Resilience. First I am going with compatibility issues to resolve in my environment. Once that is resolved, I will go with HA/Resilience implementation. Please let me know if you need any more details.

Whenever I hear people complain about computers and/or software. I always suggest them to use something like the abacus of 2000 bc. You should be glad for what they do for you ;) And since humans operate them, you will find annoyances as with doctors amputating the wrong limb.

Dovecot Maildirs multi language
by Luca Müller 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

Hello, I'm hosting a few customers on a dovecot Server. Most users speak german and have german as their main language. I configured the IMAP Foldernames in a Dovecot configuration file like this: ##### root@srv04:~# cat /etc/dovecot/conf.d/105-mailboxes.conf imap_capability = +XLIST namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = separator = / mailbox "Entwürfe" { auto = subscribe special_use = \Drafts auto=subscribe } mailbox Junk-E-Mail { special_use = \Junk auto=subscribe } mailbox "Gelöschte Elemente" { special_use = \Trash auto=subscribe } mailbox "Gesendete Elemente" { special_use = \Sent auto=subscribe } mailbox Archive { special_use = \Archive auto=subscribe } } ##### Dovecot Version: 2.3.10 (0da0eff44) ##### Is it possible to change this configuration for specific users or to provide multi language support somehow? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Luca
