[Dovecot] director: non standart ports at backends
by Костырев Александр Алексеевич 16 Jul '12

16 Jul '12

hello, I'm trying to figure out how to proxy pop3 and pop3s that listens on non-standart ports at backends. For example, pop3 is at 1110 and pop3s at 1995 (on backend side). is it possible? how should I separate this ports in director's config? it's easy for one port: for example lmtp - you just use passdb in protocol lmtp {}

[Dovecot] Issues with Plus addressing and detail part of subaddress.
by Sean Kamath 16 Jul '12

16 Jul '12

Hi all, So, it's been a while. I'm just ramping back up with Dovecot after a hiatus of a few years. I've been using it fine, complete with Sieve, for about a year, with little or no issues. I finally got around to setting up a second account, to start figuring out how I want to do some plus address filtering. In a nutshell, I want to put mail for foo+bar in foo's 'bar' folder. That's in the wiki. I did this: require ["fileinto", "envelope", "subaddress"]; if header :contains "subject" ["test"] { fileinto "Test"; } if envelope :detail "to" "test" { fileinto "test"; stop; } So, this fails miserably. No error message, nothing in the logs, no nothing. Yet, when I run sieve-test .dovecot.sieve /path/to/testmessage it works just fine. I even run sieve-test -e .dovecot.sieve /path/to/testmessage and it files it just fine into the folder. I tried adding some debug logging, but it looks like vnd.dovecot.debug isn't in my version. I searched the archives, and found a bit about adding (explicitly) the delimiter to the plugin section of 90-sieve.conf. So I did that. I'm running 2.0.13 of dovecot, and pigeonhole 0.2.3 on Solaris 10. Before I dive in and upgrade everything, am I missing something simple? The "test" bit works just fine (and in another account as well), so I think something's just not seeing the detail in subaddressing when mail is delivered (even though it works just fine with sieve-test). Thanks, Sean

[Dovecot] Migrating with dsync and INBOX.INBOX namespace issue
by Nikolai Schupbach 15 Jul '12

15 Jul '12

I'm working on migrating IMAP users from Mirapoint Message Servers to Dovecot servers. The Mirapoint IMAP server uses INBOX as a namespace for private mailboxes. I created the same namespace in Dovecot, but when I migrate mailboxes dsync seems to ignore/miss the namespace on Mirapoint and I end up with all mailboxes under a INBOX.INBOX hierarchy. Mirapoint Source Server ----------------------- * OK server.name Mirapoint IMAP4 3.8.3-GA server ready 1 LOGIN test(a)test.com test 1 OK User logged in 2 NAMESPACE * NAMESPACE (("INBOX." ".")) (("user." ".")) (("" ".")) 2 OK Completed 3 LIST "" * * LIST () "." "INBOX" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Draft" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Sent" * LIST () "." "INBOX.Trash" 3 OK Completed Running Dsync ------------- # doveadm -v -o imapc_host=server.name imapc_user=test(a)test.com -o imapc_password=test backup -R -u test(a)test.com imapc: dsync(test(a)test.com): Info: INBOX.INBOX.Sent: only in source (guid=7d3c7eaa71cdf47ee8a1192687cda8cd) dsync(test(a)test.com): Info: INBOX.INBOX.Draft: only in source (guid=a6a03ff3d6ec9066b46013f4affb109a) dsync(test(a)test.com): Info: INBOX.INBOX.Trash: only in source (guid=b36f688eae08506001091708006abe5a) dsync(test(a)test.com): Info: INBOX: only in source (guid=c92f64f79f0d1ed01e6d5b314f04886c) Dovecot Destination Server Post Dsync ------------------------------------- * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. 1 LOGIN test(a)test.com test 1 OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS SPECIAL-USE QUOTA ACL RIGHTS=texk] Logged in 2 NAMESPACE * NAMESPACE (("INBOX."

I noticed that Mirapoint IMAP also advertises a third empty namespace and I was wondering if this was causing it, but even if I explicitly set -n "INBOX." I still have the same issue.

[Dovecot] Maildir messages

Hi all, Hopefully, I'm sending this to the right place... Can someone guide me on changing the Maildir messages files back to the single file format I used to have instead of the dovecot.index /cur /tmp /new format my newer server currently has.

[Dovecot] imap-login: Panic: epoll_ctl(add, 6) failed: Invalid argument
by Angel L. Mateo 13 Jul '12

13 Jul '12

Hello, More problems (it seems that we won't be able to put our new servers in production). The problem now is that when we reach 1000 dovecot processes we have errors like: Jul 9 12:10:22 myotis31 dovecot: imap-login: Panic: epoll_ctl(add, 6) failed: Invalid argument Jul 9 12:10:22 myotis31 dovecot: imap-login: Fatal: master: service(imap-login): child 32251 killed with signal 6 (core dumps disabled) and server doesn't accept any new connection. Our servers are running in ubuntu 12.04 with kernel 3.2.0-24-generic kernel. I have found a similar problem at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=681578 but it is for redhat kernel of series 2.6. Could be the same problem? Any pointer to this problem for ubuntu kernels? Or for generic 3.0 kernels? Any idea? -- Angel L.

[Dovecot] mail_log plugin logs UTF-8 mailbox name
by Ewald Dieterich 11 Jul '12

11 Jul '12

A small bug in the mail_log plugin: When I copy a mail from the inbox to a mailbox with special characters, the mailbox name is logged in UTF-8: [...] copy from INBOX: box=INBOX.Euro €, [...] I guess the name should be in mUTF-7, like it is done when I copy the other way round: [...] copy from Euro &IKw-: box=INBOX, [...]

[Dovecot] more dsync problems: Error: proxy client timed out
by Jeff Gustafson 11 Jul '12

11 Jul '12

Hi all, I'm using dsync for backups. I recently upgraded to 2.1.7 due to issues with dsync mirror/backups. 2.1.7 fixed the issue with the guid conflict, but now I'm seeing this error on a couple of mailboxes: Error: proxy client timed out (waiting for output stream to flush, 0 bytes left) If there are 0 bytes left, why is it trying to flush? I'm using this command to backup the mailbox: dsync -vo mail_home=/home/users/user%domain.com backup ssh vmail(a)10.1.2.2 dsync -o mail_home=/home/.incoming_mail_migrations/users/user%adomain.com Any ideas? ...Jeff

First, this sub discussion in this thread has been dealing strictly with mechanical storage, and that was intentional. Now you've injected solid state storage, and in the process you first disagreed with my statement, then agreed with it. Apparently you didn't realize you did so. Would you please clarify what I stated that is "simply not true"? You comment WRT SSD doesn't prove anything I said to be untrue. Quite the contrary, you reinforced my statements. -- Stan

[Dovecot] recover .sieve plaintext from .sievec binary file
by Florin Andrei 10 Jul '12

10 Jul '12

Hi, I upgraded a server from an old Linux distribution to a much newer one. In the process, Dovecot got upgraded from v1 to v2. By mistake, I deleted the .sieve plaintext file with all the Sieve filters, but I still do have the .sievec compiled binary. Is there any way to dump the binary file back into plaintext format? Keep in mind, I'm running v2 now, and the binary was made on a v1 Dovecot server. Thanks. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/
