Lots of problems with Dovecot 2.4
by sev+dovecot＠sev.monster 06 Oct '25

06 Oct '25

Hello all, I am trying to get Dovecot 2.4 running on Alpine Edge x86-64. But a myriad of problems have occurred that make it impossible to do so. First of all was the recent off-by-one bug that was recently fixed, which caused an unavoidable segfault on start under musl libc, which Alpine uses: https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/17050 Then, I saw that the shadow driver was removed, which necessitated the installation of PAM and my learning about it... I haven't needed it before, so I'd never used it. I guess I understand why the decision was made to use PAM, though I still don't like it. After resolving those issue, I've run into new ones: 1. The passwd userdb does not seem to work correctly. It is able to get the first user and its information correctly, but any attempts to look up any user after that will seemingly always use the information from the first matched user. Setting max auths to 1 so that the auth process is discarded afterwards does not seem to help. For example, if the first user to log in to Dovecot is bob, and then user joe logs in, the information returned from the passwd userdb will all be that of user bob, not joe. This continues for all subsequent userdb lookups until Dovecot is restarted, and a new userdb lookup is persisted. Changing to passwd-file instead works and does not experience this problem. 2. Why is the only available username field for the passwd driver %{passwd:system_groups_user}? I understand what the purpose of the field is based on the docs, but shouldn't more than this be exposed? The fields available through passwd are also not documented, and I had to read the source to find them out. This should either be documented or a more standard username field be additionally exposed as with other drivers. Can this field even be relied on to use as the username, if the driver otherwise worked? 3. It seems the Exim auth driver is no longer able to successfully authenticate with Dovecot 2.4 against Exim 4.98.2. It works fine in the last version of 2.3.21.1. Has the authentication framework changed along with the other modifications that 2.4 underwent? Has any effort been made with the Exim team to resolve any incompatibilities? Can I somehow diagnose this issue if it's otherwise supposed to work? 4. The ldap driver can no longer look up missing fields from LDAP users. Some (but not all) of my users have the rfc2307bis schema posixAccount supplemental objectClass, and as such contain the posixHome, uidNumber, and gidNumber attributes—but even if I specify a default value, if one of the attributes is not queryable for the returned user, the lookup errors out and the login fails. This is a regression/undocumented change from 2.3.x, where instead of erroring out, the default_fields value would be used. Based on my interpretation of the design goals for 2.4, I would imagine the default filter would ignore the missing attribute error and set the default value like default_fields used to, no? Or am I missing something? 5. passdb_ldap_filter is always required for the ldap passdb driver, even if passdb_ldap_bind is enabled. Not only does this go against the docs, but the value is unused and it doesn't matter what it's set to. This is a regression from 2.3.x. Overall I am very unimpressed by 2.4. It clearly needed a lot more time in the oven and much more thorough testing. Relevant minimal config from my working 2.3.21.1 install: auth_username_format = %Ln auth_mechanisms = plain login passdb { driver = shadow } userdb { driver = passwd override_fields = gid=mail home=/var/mail/%Ln } passdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/ldap-passdb.conf.ext #uris = ldapi://%2frun%2fopenldap%2fslapd.sock #base = ou=accounts,dc=ldap #auth_bind = yes #auth_bind_userdn = uid=%Ln,ou=accounts,dc=ldap } userdb { driver = ldap default_fields = uid=mail gid=mail home=/var/mail/%Ln args = /etc/dovecot/ldap-userdb.conf.ext #uris = ldapi://%2frun%2fopenldap%2fslapd.sock #dn = cn=dovecot,dc=ldap #dnpass = "some pw" #base = ou=accounts,dc=ldap #iterate_filter = (objectClass=inetOrgPerson) #iterate_attrs = uid=username #user_filter = (&(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)(uid=%Ln)) #user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uidNumber=uid,gidNumber=gid } mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/%Ln mail_plugins = $mail_plugins virtual namespace inbox { inbox = yes mailbox INBOX { auto = subscribe } } namespace virtual { type = private separator = . prefix = "Search Folders." location = virtual:/etc/dovecot/virtual:INDEX=~/dovecot-virtual.cache:CONTROL=~/dovecot-virtual.cache:VOLATILEDIR=~/dovecot-virtual.cache # virtual/All/dovecot-virtual: #!INBOX #* #-Junk #-Junk* #-Spam #-Spam* #-Trash #-Trash* #-Deleted #-Deleted* #-Deleted Items #-Deleted Items* # all hidden = yes list = children subscriptions = no mailbox All { auto = subscribe special_use = \All comment = All messages, excluding Junk and Trash } } namespace virtual-user { type = private separator = . prefix = "User Search Folders." location = virtual:~/.virtual:INDEX=~/dovecot-virtual-user.cache:CONTROL=~/dovecot-virtual-user.cache:VOLATILEDIR=~/dovecot-virtual-user.cache:LAYOUT=maildir++ hidden = yes list = children subscriptions = no } service auth { unix_listener auth-userdb { # restrict userdb to dovecot user/group only instead of world read/write mode = 0660 user = $default_internal_user group = $default_internal_group } unix_listener auth-client { # give Exim access to native authentication mode = 0660 group = exim } } service auth-worker { # no need to run as root user = $default_internal_user # allow pam passdb to read /etc/shadow group = shadow } !include_try /usr/share/dovecot/protocols.d/*.conf protocol imap { mail_max_userip_connections = 25 } protocol pop3 { mail_max_userip_connections = 25 } Converted config for 2.4: dovecot_config_version = 2.4.1 dovecot_storage_version = 2.4.1 mail_home = /var/mail/%{user | username | lower } mail_driver = maildir mail_path = $SET:mail_home mail_plugins = virtual auth_username_format = %{user | username | lower } auth_mechanisms = plain login passdb pam { failure_show_msg = yes max_requests = 1 } userdb passwd-file { passwd_file_path = /etc/passwd fields { gid = mail } } # BUG: doesn't work right #userdb passwd { # fields { # gid = mail # } #} passdb ldap { ldap_uris = ldapi://%2frun%2fopenldap%2fslapd.sock ldap_connection_group = login ldap_base = ou=accounts,dc=ldap ldap_bind = yes ldap_bind_userdn = uid=%{user | username | lower },ou=accounts,dc=ldap # XXX: thought this wasnt needed with bind?

Crash in dovecot snippet when using imapc

Hello, I've found a crash in a very specific setup. A dovecot server with imapc connection needs to receive an email with no body contents for the intent of generating a preview/snippet. It crashes somewhere deep in the jungle of istream and snapshots. I've included a script which sets up the systems to reproduce the crash.

For me it produces a traceback like this, using the ubuntu version from here: https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/dovecot-core (gdb) bt #0 __pthread_kill_implementation (no_tid=0, signo=6, threadid=140530132887360) at ./nptl/pthread_kill.c:44 #1 __pthread_kill_internal (signo=6, threadid=140530132887360) at ./nptl/ pthread_kill.c:78 #2 __GI___pthread_kill (threadid=140530132887360, signo=signo@entry=6) at ./ nptl/pthread_kill.c:89 #3 0x00007fcfb8842476 in __GI_raise (sig=sig@entry=6) at ../sysdeps/posix/ raise.c:26 #4 0x00007fcfb88287f3 in __GI_abort () at ./stdlib/abort.c:79 #5 0x00007fcfb8b37fe5 in default_fatal_finish (status=0, type=LOG_TYPE_PANIC) at ../lib/failures.c:465 #6 fatal_handler_real (ctx=<optimized out>, format=<optimized out>, args=<optimized out>) at ../lib/failures.c:477 #7 0x00007fcfb8be50d7 in i_internal_fatal_handler (ctx=<optimized out>, format=<optimized out>, args=<optimized out>) at ../lib/failures.c:879 #8 0x00007fcfb8b37eea in i_panic (format=0x7fcfb8c29020 "file %s: line %d (%s): assertion failed: (%s)") at ../lib/failures.c:530 #9 0x00007fcfb8b3387b in i_stream_header_filter_snapshot_free (_snapshot=<optimized out>) at ../lib-mail/istream-header-filter.c:663 #10 i_stream_header_filter_snapshot_free (_snapshot=0x55dabe297a60) at ../lib- mail/istream-header-filter.c:655 #11 0x00007fcfb8bf25ac in i_stream_snapshot_free (_snapshot=_snapshot@entry=0x55dabe29b0d0) at ../lib/istream.c:253 #12 0x00007fcfb8bf2654 in i_stream_unref (stream=0x7ffc16cc7fa0) at ../lib/ istream.c:66 #13 0x00007fcfb8d96baa in index_mail_write_body_snippet (mail=0x55dabe292058) at index/index-mail.c:1151 #14 0x00007fcfb8d97e48 in index_mail_parse_bodystructure (mail=0x55dabe292058, field=MAIL_CACHE_BODY_SNIPPET) at index/index-mail.c:1551 #15 0x00007fcfb8d97fe2 in index_mail_fetch_body_snippet (value_r=0x7ffc16cc8050, mail=0x55dabe292058) at index/index-mail.c:1602 #16 index_mail_get_special (_mail=0x55dabe292058, field=<optimized out>, value_r=0x7ffc16cc8050) at index/index-mail.c:1730 #17 0x00007fcfb8d16ffe in mail_get_special (mail=mail@entry=0x55dabe292058, field=field@entry=MAIL_FETCH_BODY_SNIPPET, value_r=value_r@entry=0x7ffc16cc8050) at /home/ubuntu/dovecot/new/dovecot-2.3.21+dfsg1/src/lib-storage/mail.c:418 #18 0x000055dabc52645c in fetch_snippet (ctx=0x55dabe26e050, mail=0x55dabe292058, preview=0x55dabe28f1f8) at ./src/imap/imap-fetch-body.c: 615 #19 0x000055dabc52b5cc in imap_fetch_more_int (ctx=0x55dabe26e050, cancel=false) at ./src/imap/imap-fetch.c:562 #20 0x000055dabc52b8ad in imap_fetch_more (ctx=0x55dabe26e050, cmd=0x55dabe26de98) at ./src/imap/imap-fetch.c:617 #21 0x000055dabc51fd07 in cmd_fetch (cmd=0x55dabe26de98) at ./src/imap/cmd- fetch.c:382 #22 0x000055dabc528af4 in command_exec (cmd=0x55dabe26de98) at ./src/imap/imap- commands.c:201 #23 0x000055dabc52e9e2 in client_command_input (cmd=<optimized out>) at ./src/ imap/imap-client.c:1237 #24 0x000055dabc52ea96 in client_command_input (cmd=<optimized out>) at ./src/ imap/imap-client.c:1307 #25 0x000055dabc52eeed in client_handle_next_command (remove_io_r=<synthetic pointer>, client=0x55dabe26d2c8) at ./src/imap/imap-client.c:1349 #26 client_handle_input (client=0x55dabe26d2c8) at ./src/imap/imap-client.c: 1363 #27 0x000055dabc52f2c4 in client_input (client=0x55dabe26d2c8) at ./src/imap/ imap-client.c:1407 #28 0x00007fcfb8bfe27d in io_loop_call_io (io=0x55dabe26e660) at ../lib/ ioloop.c:737 #29 0x00007fcfb8bff81a in io_loop_handler_run_internal (ioloop=0x55dabe243fd0) at ../lib/ioloop-epoll.c:222 #30 0x00007fcfb8bff8d4 in io_loop_handler_run (ioloop=0x55dabe243fd0) at ../ lib/ioloop.c:789 #31 0x00007fcfb8bffa90 in io_loop_run (ioloop=0x55dabe243fd0) at ../lib/ ioloop.c:762 #32 0x00007fcfb8b6ce57 in master_service_run (service=0x55dabe243e20, callback=callback@entry=0x55dabc533210 <client_connected>) at ../lib-master/ master-service.c:878 #33 0x000055dabc51ad37 in main (argc=<optimized out>, argv=<optimized out>) at ./src/imap/main.c:575 John

Missing IMAP METADATA Plugin
by Adam Miller 23 Aug '25

23 Aug '25

OS: Ubuntu 22.04.1 Dovecot: 2.3.16 (7e2e900c1a) When trying to enable the “imap_metadata” plugin, I get the following error: Plugin 'imap_metadata' not found from directory /usr/lib/dovecot/modules I have searched high and low via Google, StackOverflow and even ChatGPT (haha) but I cannot seem to find the package that provides the plugin. Does Dovecot have to be built from source for this plugin to be included? Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

[Patch] Allow sieve redirects to specified domains only
by Kadlecsik József 10 Aug '25

10 Aug '25

Hello, The use case is simple: we have to forbid sieve redirects to outside, but should be able to redirect inside. The patch below adds a new sieve configuration option sieve_allowed_redirects to list the domains to which redirects are permitted and otherwise are not allowed.

sievec fails when run as non-root - bug?
by Genes Lists 30 Jun '25

30 Jun '25

1) With 2.4.1, when a non-root user runs sievec on their own sieve scripts it fails to run due to permission denied on the dovecot certificate key (which is only readable by root). Specifically: sievec active.sieve doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10- ssl.conf line 10: cert_file: open(/etc/.../fullchain.pem) failed: Permission denied What is recommended way to deal with this? 2) Separate question: Might this explain why users sieve scripts are not running? I assume not as there are no 'sieve' items reported by lmtp in the logs. Config has: protocol lmtp { postmaster_address = postmaster@<domain>.com mail_plugins { sieve = yes } hostname = imap.<domain>.com } sieve_script before { driver = file path = /etc/dovecot/sieve/global active_path = remove_dup.sieve } sieve_script personal { driver = file path = ~/sieve active_path = ~/.dovecot.sieve } sieve_script after { driver = file path = /etc/dovecot/sieve active_path = default.sieve } thanks. -- Gene

Identifying spamd problems

Hi, I have use Dovecot, Spamassassin and Roundcube. My spam assassin is configured to use SQL. I have noticed that when I move a message to the junk folder, it increases the number of spam on the database. But when I move it out of the junk folder, it doesn’t increase the ham nor decreases the spam count. When running sa-learn manually, it does everything right.
