dsync with vurtial folder leads to mess of msg ID
by Kirill A. Korinsky 25 Sep '24

25 Sep '24

Greetings, I have a setup with two dovecot servers and dsync replication between them. On both of them I have a virtual folders, forexample All with config: mx1# cat /etc/dovecot/virtual/All/dovecot-virtual * -Trash -Trash/* -Junk -Junk/* all All virtual folders are excluded from replication because it leads to broken replication with errors like: virtual.All can't be created. So, I have. replication_dsync_parameters = -d -l 30 -U -x virtual. Unfortently, after a couple of weeks I've noticed that msg id for the same message on the different servers aren't match. For example: mx1# doveadm fetch -u kirill(a)korins.ky 'uid' mailbox virtual.All header Message-ID 'macports/macports-ports/pull/22284/c1901369454(a)github.com' uid: 157786 mx1# doveadm fetch -u kirill(a)korins.ky 'uid' mailbox INBOX header Message-ID 'macports/macports-ports/pull/22284/c1901369454(a)github.com' uid: 5561 mx1# vs mx2# doveadm fetch -u kirill(a)korins.ky 'uid' mailbox virtual.All header Message-ID 'macports/macports-ports/pull/22284/c1901369454(a)github.com' uid: 157766 mx2# doveadm fetch -u kirill(a)korins.ky 'uid' mailbox INBOX header Message-ID 'macports/macports-ports/pull/22284/c1901369454(a)github.com' uid: 5561 mx2# as you may see msgid at INBOX are matched, but it isn't true for virtual.All, here 157786 vs 157766 So, here the question: how can I sync msg id inside virtual folder on this setup? -- wbr, Kirill

trigger/event on mailbox create / acl create possible?
by Marc 24 Sep '24

I was wondering if it is possible to execute some trigger after a mailbox is being shared so the user is automatically subscribed to it?

I am trying to modify the body of message with a global sieve script. It looks like that sieve-test does not generate this error, however I am not really able to verify the output. There does not seem to be an option to catch the output (new message) trace log 00000008: 3: finishing match with result: matched 00000029: 3: jump if result is false 00000029: 3: not jumping 0000002e: 5: filter action 0000002e: 5: execute program `sieve-command' 0000002e: 5: filter action: program indicated false result 0000005f: ## Finished executing script 'commands' require ["vnd.dovecot.execute","vnd.dovecot.filter","vnd.dovecot.debug"]; #if true if header :contains "Subject" "xxxx" { filter "sieve-command" ["-task","xxxx"]; } dovecot log (1166226): Terminated with non-zero exit code 2

bug dir copy group permissions?
by Marc 23 Sep '24

23 Sep '24

I am not sure if this page is correct, looks at least like this g+s not ok https://doc.dovecot.org/2.3/admin_manual/filesystem_permission/ work-around is to manually create dirs mdbox mdbox/storage mdbox/mailboxes. I would think this is a bug as files seem to be created correctly. group rights are not copied on directories, resulting in getfacl #effective:--- for the acl groups just testing with rm -R -f everything below usertest6 [@ shared]# ls -ln total 4 drwxr-xr-x 4 0 0 34 Sep 23 11:50 bak drwxrwx---+ 4 10001 10001 34 Sep 23 12:18 usertest drwxrwx---+ 3 10002 10002 19 Sep 23 11:51 usertest2 drwxrwx---+ 3 10006 10006 19 Sep 23 12:37 usertest6 -rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 121 Sep 23 11:46 README where are the group rights on mdbox?

Mail Backup from IMAP to POP3
by Reprobus 23 Sep '24

23 Sep '24

Hi, I'm in a situation whereas I need to backup my email from an IMAP server to a POP3 email client of my choosing. I'm hoping Dovecot can do such a task and is there a container to which I can run to set this up from ? My IMAP email server is maxed and I need to dump all the emails off the IMAP to POP3 as to clear it up. Thank You

shared mailbox not visible, acl_shared_dict stays empty
by Marc 22 Sep '24

22 Sep '24

I am creating the mailbox like this: doveadm -o mail_gid=testgroup2 mailbox create -u usertest shared/sharedtest1 I can set acl's (I think), at least the acl get produces the same. doveadm acl set -u usertest shared/sharedtest1 user=usertest6 lookup read write write-seen insert post doveadm acl get -u usertest shared/sharedtest1 However this file stays empty, I have read somewhere it should automatically be updated? acl_shared_dict = file:/tmp/shared-mailboxes.db How should I add entries manually there with: doveadm dict set file:/tmp/shared-mailboxes.db shared/sharedtest2 kempotest6 or with this syntax still???? https://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2009-April/038922.html
