[Dovecot] Syslog debug messages
by Bruno Galindro da Costa 05 Dec '13

05 Dec '13

Is there a way to configure dovecot to register in syslog the debug messages enabled by mail_debug=yes as a debug not as information? I need this because I want to send this kind of information only to a remote server. I've configured rsyslog to do this, but dovecot is registering those debug messages as information not as debug (as I expected). This is my rsyslog config: mail.info;\ mail.warning;\ mail.err;\ mail.crit -/var/log/mail.log mail.* :omrelp:192.168.2.162:2514 root@imap:~# dovecot -n # 1.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf Warning: fd limit 1024 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load (more than 4748).

[Dovecot] FTS solr issue with second private namespace
by Andreas Oster 05 Dec '13

05 Dec '13

Hi all, I have just stumbled over an issue with the FTS plugin of dovecot. For our primary namespace, INBOX and its subfolders, searching works without any problems but in a second namespace, which I have created for old/archived mails, searching of the mail text/body does not work. I can see the search request in the tomcat log but no result is created and the mail client (Thunderbird) keeps displaying the serach message without returning any results. Tomcat6 catalina.out: Dez 02, 2013 11:58:00 AM org.apache.solr.core.SolrCore execute INFO: [] webapp=/solr path=/select params={fl=uid,score&sort=uid+asc&q=body:"schiller"&fq=%2Bbox:1b4de60d0a6287522d0c00004424cda4+%2Buser:"testuser"&rows=2} hits=0 status=0 QTime=1 I am currently using Dovecot 2.2.9 and do not have any special FTS config: mail_plugins = quota mailbox_alias fts fts_solr plugin { fts = solr fts_solr = break-imap-search url=http://localhost:8080/solr/ fts_autoindex = yes } Thank you for your kind help best regards Andreas

[Dovecot] Full text search improvements
by Timo Sirainen 05 Dec '13

05 Dec '13

FTS indexing is something I hear quite often nowadays. I’ve added some hacks to make it work better for some installations, but it’s about time to think about the whole design and how it could be improved for everyone in future. Here are some of my initial thoughts. Currently Dovecot supports 3 full text search engines: Solr, CLucene and Dovecot Squat. CLucene plugin has various features built in, which should have been built in a generic way to work with all the engines (although Solr has most of those already built-in). Squat was abandoned a few years ago in favor of Solr/CLucene, but perhaps it could be brought back to life, since it looks like its index sizes could be smaller than Lucene's. Here's a list of things that should be added to generic Dovecot FTS code to improve all the backends: 1. Support for multiple languages. Use textcat while indexing to guess the language of the indexed data. (Perhaps run it separately for each paragraph to handle multi-language mails? Or at least many emails begin/end with different language than the text in the middle, e.g. "Foo Bar wrote:" is often in various languages.) Index the data using the detected language's stemming and other features. Keep track of which languages have been used in the index, and when searching stem the search words to all the used languages. Since each added language requires additional searches and there's the possibility of wrong detection, the list of allowed languages could be configurable. See also http://ntextcat.codeplex.com/ or at least change textcat to use UTF8. 2. Word stemming. This can be done for many languages with Snowball library. Solr has also implemented several other languages, perhaps its code can be somehow automatically translated to C(++) for use with Dovecot? 3. Don't index language-specific stopwords. We can get the word lists from e.g. Solr. 4. Try to detect compound words and index each part separately for languages that use them. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/LanguageAnalysis#Decompounding suggests two possible ways to do it. 5. Normalize words (e.g. drop diacritics). libicu can be used for this. 6. Drop (Unicode) characters that don't belong to the language? Or especially don't index most of the weird Unicode characters. This would avoid filling the index with unnecessary garbage. 7. Don't index non-text data? For example if there is large block of base64 data or something else that definitely doesn't look like text, it's pretty useless to index it. Then again, we do want to index all kinds of IDs that someone might want to search. This could be a bit difficult to implement well. 8. Index attachments separately, so it would be possible to search only attachments. (Should "SEARCH BODY word1 BODY word2" return matches if word1 and word2 are in different attachments?) 9. Attachments can be translated to indexable UTF-8 text already with fts_decoder setting by doing it via a conversion script. This could also support Apache Tika server directly. 10. It should be configurable which fields are indexed. Body and header would always be separately indexed. Optionally there could be also at least: attachments, From, To, Cc, Bcc and Subject. The From/To/Cc/Bcc could also be indexed together in one "addresses" field. The more fields there are, the larger the index, but better/faster search results. 11. Each indexed mail should have metadata: Mailbox GUID, mail UID and the language the mail was indexed with. For attachments there should also be the MIME part number. When matching results, drop results if returned language doesn't match the query language. Squat ----- Currently Squat index consists of a trie containing all the words and pointer to a file listing all the message UIDs that contain them. Each node in the trie has a pointer to the UIDs, so e.g. with "abc" the "a" node will contain UIDs of all mails that contain the "a" letter (e.g. 1,3-5,10). "ab" node will contain mails that have the "ab" substring. Since the "ab" is a subset of "a", the "ab" won't contain UIDs directly but instead it contains indexes to the "a" list to get a better compression (e.g. UID 3-5,10 -> 2-4 indexes in the "1,3-5,10" list). The "abc" node then similarly refers to the "ab" node's indexes. It's configurable how long words Squat will index. Also substring matching is configurable. By default both are 4 letters, so words longer than 4 letters will be split to 4 letter pieces which are indexed (e.g. "dovecot" -> "dove", "ovec", "veco", "ecot"). When searching these pieces are looked up and the results are merged. It's pretty pointless to do a search for 1-2 letter substrings. Most likely the user wants to find 1-2 letter word instead. Perhaps this is true also for 3 letters? The Squat index could be changed to only add results for the first 1-2 (or 1-3?) letters only for full words, not to word prefixes. This of course would mean that the "ab" referring to "a" UID list would no longer work for the first nodes. Substring searching likely wouldn't work very nicely for stemmed words. So Squat should probably index the full stemmed word and then also index the unstemmed word in the small 4 letter pieces. It should be possible to also disable substring searching entirely. Squat already attempts to reduce disk space by encoding the common characters with less bits than other characters. This is hardcoded for English language though. Each index compression could analyze the most common letters and dynamically use those. Perhaps different languages could even use separate Squat index files to get the most advantage of this? Although if there are a lot of languages it's a bit annoying to have many different index files. Squat currently indexes each Unicode character as one letter, so there can be quite a huge number of different 4 letter words. This substring indexing should probably be disabled for words that contain letters not used by the current language. The UID lists are not compressed very efficiently. See http://www2009.eprints.org/41/1/p401.pdf for alternatives. There is currently one Squat index per mailbox. There should be one per user. This requires adding a separate ID -> { mailbox GUID, UID, language, mime part } mapping file. Squat indexes should be updated in two parts. For old mails there are the large trie+uidlist base files in optimized format. For new mails there are small trie+uidlist files in a format where they are just appended to. When the trie or uidlist becomes large enough, it's first internally sorted/optimized, and then merged with the base files by recreating new optimized base files. This fixes the scalability problem with current large Squat indexes where with large unsorted indexes the sorting could have taken forever. Since substring searches in Squat produce only "maybe matches" UID lists, the mails still need to be opened and searched through. This step could probably also do the same language detection + stemming as is done during indexing to improve the search results. (And this feature could be enabled even if no FTS index is enabled.)

[Dovecot] Ubuntu packages and broken link in docs
by Alan McGinlay - SICS 04 Dec '13

04 Dec '13

Hi, Two things: 1. Does anyone know of a good PPA with updated packages of Dovecot for Ubuntu? "For the latest Dovecot for latest Ubuntu LTS see Xiaoka APT Repository. (Outdated. Could someone provide a ppa for latest stable Dovecot, please?)" 2. On the http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PrebuiltBinaries#Ubuntu page there is a link to a supposedly outdated PPA, the ppa page now redirects to an ad for the guys services so should probably be removed. /Alan

[Dovecot] Different settings for SSL/non-SSL protocols
by Алексей Прокопчук 04 Dec '13

04 Dec '13

Good time of the day! It is possible to setup dovecot with different requirements for SSL and non-SSL protocols? What would I like to do: pop3/imap non-SSL = allowed plain text authentication. pop3/imap with SSL = allowed plain text authentication with required valid SSL certificates. I need to allow access from any IP address for first group of users, which have valid SSL certificates. And allow access from only local IP addresses for second group of users which doesn't have SSL certificates at all. I tried to setup dovecot for such task. SSL and non-SSL pop3/imap works together fine, but without require valid SSL certificates. If I set auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes, non-SSL pop3/imap refuses authentication without valid SSL certificate. I tried to use different sections for protocol pop3 {} and protocol pop3s {} (and imap/imaps) but this seems doesn't work. Is there any way to solve this? Thanks for attention, with best regards, Alexey Prokopchuk (AP8686-RIPE)

[Dovecot] Complete migration from Cyrus on remote server
by Alan McGinlay - SICS 04 Dec '13

04 Dec '13

Hi All! I am working on a complete migration from an old solaris machine running Cyrus IMAP v2.3.14 and wish to migrate all users to a new ubuntu vm running Dovecot 2.0.19. What I have so far is a fully functional dovecot installation with LDAP / Dovecot SASL auth using Maildir++. My plan is to use Perdition IMAP proxy on a third host and migrate users a few at a time (see attached picture of my whiteboard). The proxy is in place and already used by webmail clients to connect to the old server, shortly I will change the dns to point smtp.domain.com and imap.domain.com etc to the proxy instead of the old server but I haven't finished testing yet. Once that is done it is a simple matter of changing the proxy configuration per user to make them hit the new server instead. The problem I am having with this is that I am using Imapsync (http://imapsync.lamiral.info) to perform the initial synchronization (i have scripted it to maintain sync every 10 minutes with the addtion of "--maxage 1" option) using the following command line options: /usr/local/bin/imapsync --noreleasecheck --useheader ALL --delete2 --expunge2 --tmpdir /var/vmail/cache --subscribe --subscribed --tls1 --tls2 --usecache --nofoldersizes --nocheckmessageexists --host1 oldserver.domain.com --authuser1 adminuser --user1 testuser(a)domain.com --authmech1 PLAIN --password1 <HIDDEN> --host2 newserver.domain.com --authuser2 adminuser --user2 testuser(a)domain.com --authmech2 PLAIN --password2 <HIDDEN> All email is copied over and stored in dovecot as you would expect. Then I switch the user to the new server on the imapproxy and restart the client (thunderbird or whatever). This is where all email headers are downloaded again as if they were new! There are *Many* users here who would complain intensely if this happened and I was really wanting the migration to be as invisible as possible. Is there a way to do what I have described without the clients redownloading headers / full messages? I have been working on this for some time now but have hit a roadblock and don't know where to turn, any help would be really appreciated! Notes: * The proxy is not used during imapsync. * Some users have 20 years worth of mail running into 10's of GB * I have looked at dsync but the docs state that the mailbox should not be accessed during sync, this is not possible for me (it doesn't say why this is the case however)

[Dovecot] Possible managesieve bug.
by Pedro R. Benito da Rocha 04 Dec '13

04 Dec '13

Hi, I'm migrating from from 1.1 to 2.2. Currently I am doing test to ensure I'm doing it right. On the old server the managesieve config says: sieve = /correo/%d/%u/dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = /correo/%d/%u/Sieve and is working fine. But the same config on the new server is not working. I have activated verbose logging and this is the result: Dec 3 09:59:41 imap-01 dovecot: managesieve-login: Login: user=<xxxx(a)ubu.es>, method=LOGIN, rip=10.145.4.65, lip=10.145.4.45, mpid=29855, session=<T7hfhJ3s+QAKkQRB> Dec 3 09:59:41 imap-01 dovecot: managesieve(xxxx(a)ubu.es): Error: sieve-storage: Performing readlink() on active sieve symlink '/correo/ubu.es/xxxx(a)ubu.es/dovecot.sieve' failed: Permission denied Dec 3 09:59:41 imap-01 dovecot: managesieve(xxxx(a)ubu.es): Error: sieve-storage: Failed to stat active sieve script symlink (/correo/ubu.es/xxxx(a)ubu.es/dovecot.sieve) Permission denied.

I modified the permissions using 0777 but the error message is the same. I have made other tests to see if I can find the problem, and I made it work if I delete "%d" from config, this way: sieve = /correo/%u/dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = /correo/%u/Sieve I have copied all filters preserving permissions, and with the same file permissions is working. If I add the '%d' to the path error comes again. Can anyone tell me if this is the normal behavior or is a bug?
