[Dovecot] IMAP folders' codepages problem ?

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.7.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.7.tar.gz.sig * IMAP: IDLE now sends "Still here" notifications to same user's connections at the same time. This hopefully reduces power usage of some mobile clients that use multiple IDLEing connections. * IMAP: If imap_capability is set, show it in the login banner. + IMAP: Implemented SORT=DISPLAY extension. - Login process creation could have sometimes failed with epoll_ctl() errors or without epoll probably some other strange things could have happened. - Maildir: Fixed some performance issues - Maildir: Fixed crash when using a lot of keywords. - Several fixes to QRESYNC extension and modseq handling - mbox: Make sure failed saves get rolled back with NFS. - dbox: Several fixes.

[Dovecot] Ownership and permissions for the index directory/filesystem
by Stewart Dean 14 Nov '09

14 Nov '09

I recently upgraded from DC 1.1.15 to 1.2.6. The /var/dcindx index root directory is: drwxrwsrwt 3962 root sys 192512 Nov 13 11:56 ./ thus 3777. It appears that the user index directories created under DC1.1 look like this (here for /var/dcindx/cep): drwx--S--- 5 cep sys 256 Nov 13 14:26 cep/ while those created under V1.2 look like: drwx------ 3 lrenart sys 256 Nov 12 14:59 lrenart/ It seems that the first time that DC goes to do indexing, I now see this error msg: Nov 12 11:45:15 mercury mail:err|error dovecot: IMAP(bpyi): open(/var/spool/mail/bpyi) failed: Permission denied (euid=2586(bpyi) egid=2000(bard2) missing +w perm: /var/spool/mail) ...but never again... Questions: 1) Are the ownership and permissions on the /var/dcindx index root directory ideal or should they be something else? 2) Ideally what should the ownership and permissions be for individual user subdirs? I create the user mail directories when creating a new account, so it would be little extra trouble to create and set the ownership and permissions. I am currently using mbox mailbox format but will be migrating to maildir over the next some months.

[Dovecot] Index file (date timestamp) issue on OS X 10.6.2 Server
by Darren Latter 14 Nov '09

14 Nov '09

Hi, I've run into a bit of a problem and exhausted my knowledge and research. I'm hoping that I've overlooked something very obvious! I moved from a single Apple OS X 10.6.2 server Dovecot environment to a NFS clustered environment, currently with two servers. Both servers are identical hardware, software. Currently both the Dovecot index and data files are on the NFS RAID array. Both servers are configured to work with NFS per the Dovecot guides. The index and data files are accessed via a target link to the NFS mount via /var/spool/imap/dovecot. Email can be sent and received via either server and there are no errors being reported (both platforms are in debug mode). In essence everything appears to be working fine. The issue is that after the index is initially built (all email timestamps are correct) however any new incoming email is timestamped: 8 July 2037 23:53 I checked the index files: drwx------ 5 XXXX mail 4096 Nov 12 20:41 .UND -rw------- 1 XXXX staff 1472 Nov 13 12:30 .nfs.2005105c.0583 -rw------- 2 XXXX mail 56668 Nov 13 15:44 .nfs.200514ff.0583 -rw------- 2 XXXX mail 1364 Nov 13 15:44 .nfs.20051500.0583 drwx------ 2 XXXX mail 12288 Nov 13 15:44 cur -rw------- 1 XXXX mail 118 Nov 13 10:04 dovecot-keywords -rw------- 1 XXXX staff 5359 Nov 13 15:44 dovecot-uidlist -rw------- 1 XXXX staff 8 Nov 12 21:12 dovecot-uidvalidity -rw------- 1 XXXX mail 0 Jul 8 2037 dovecot-uidvalidity.4afc7a3a -rw------- 1 XXXX staff 1472 Nov 13 15:44 dovecot.index -rw------- 2 XXXX mail 56668 Nov 13 15:44 dovecot.index.cache -rw------- 2 XXXX mail 1364 Nov 13 15:44 dovecot.index.log -rw------- 1 XXXX mail 3859 Nov 13 15:47 maildirsize drwx------ 2 XXXX mail 4096 Nov 13 15:44 new -rw------- 1 XXXX mail 902 Nov 1 14:07 subscriptions drwx------ 2 XXXX mail 4096 Nov 13 15:44 tmp When checking the "stand alone" old data - the files are all correctly dated.
