Hi everybody, I have a problem after configuring dovecot to work with mysql (Debian Etch System). When i send an email from outside, i have an undelivred mail returned to sender saying : Relay access denied (in reply to RCPT TO command) In my dovecot log file i have these errors : --------------------- Nov 28 20:08:27 myhost postfix/smtpd[5087]: connect from smtp5-g21.toto.com [1.2.3.4] Nov 28 20:08:27 myhost postfix/smtpd[5087]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from smtp5-g21.toto.com [1.2.3.4]: 554 5.7.1 <mymail(a)test.com>: Relay access denied; from=<outside-mail(a)toto.com> to=<mymail(a)test.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<smtp5-g21.toto.com> Nov 28 20:08:28 myhost postfix/smtpd[5087]: disconnect from smtp5-g21.toto.com [1.2.3.4] ---------------------- What do you think is the problem ?

[Dovecot] Postfix issue but I want to fix it here...
by david＠davidwbrown.name 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Hello, Dovecot bunch and Timo. I am using Sylpheed as my Dovecot/IMAP client. At home behind my LAN Sylpheed can send email because the Postfix SMTPd views my LAN as a trusted network. No such luck when I'm away from home. I know it has something to do with configuring the relay access elements but what I have tried so far does not work. I'm sure someone has had this simple issue previously. The error condition and other particulars follow: OS: CentOS, Windows XP SMTPd: Postfix 2.3.3 IMAP: Dovecot 1.2 Mail client: Sylpheed 2.7.1 Error condition: Error occurred while sending the message: 554 5.7.1 <messages-noreply(a)linkedin.com>: Relay access denied

[Dovecot] Dovecot SSL limitations
by Thomas Hummel 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Hello Timo, I'd like to check if my understanding of dovecot-1.2.x's SSL certificate handling is correct : SSL does not provide the server any mechanism to choose which certificate it must send relatively to the name the client is using. Thus, if you want to use different certificates, you have to listen to different addresses. This is an SSL limitation, not a dovecot nor IMAP limitation. This is the reason why it's possible to use different certificates for IMAP and POP3. But it seems to work only with those two : As a matter of fact, even if you listen to different addresses, how would you tell dovecot to send this certificate for this address and that certificate for that address, since there is no IP dependent section (as in apache IP-based virtual host for instance) ? It seems the only way would be to have more than one instance of dovecot (several dovecot with different config files). The problem is that some clients may be configured with mail.my.domain, some others with imap.my.domain, ...etc... Hence the need to have different certificates with those different names as cn. -- Thomas Hummel | Institut Pasteur <hummel(a)pasteur.fr> | Pôle informatique - systèmes et réseau

Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2.x masteruser proxy problem
by Tom Mihalicek 30 Nov '09

30 Nov '09

The problem was in auth_bind=yes in dovecot-ldap.conf i didnt read thoroughly the http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers?action=show&redirect=Mas… You should also add the pass=yes setting to the master passdb if possible. It means that Dovecot verifies that the login user really exists before allowing the master user to log in. Without the setting if a non-existing login username is given, depending on the configuration, it could either return an internal login error (the userdb lookup failed) or create a whole new user (with eg. static userdb). pass=yes doesn't work with PAM or LDAP with auth_bind=yes, because both of them require knowing the user's password.

[Dovecot] /var/run/dovecot mode 750 too tight
by Frank Cusack 30 Nov '09

30 Nov '09

dovecot-1.2.8 creates /var/run/dovecot mode 750. I run postfix+dovecot in a virtual user setup. Postfix calls deliver as user vmail group vmail. Nov 29 12:53:04 imap.invalid dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.error] deliver(frank): userdb lookup: connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Permission denied (euid=500(vmail) egid=500(vmail) missing +x perm: /var/run/dovecot) I will say this: dovecot's error reporting in general is head and shoulders above the norm. Makes tracking down problems sooo much easier. Something else I noticed, should the dict-server socket really be mode 777? At least a-x I would think. -frank

[Dovecot] Everytime I start my mail client it downloads all message again!
by BeKi 28 Nov '09

28 Nov '09

Hello, I use Xdove 1.2 on my ts-409 together with IMAP/dovecot. I like to see the same folder structure on my different workstation (private/work ...). I move the mails into the folder structure I created. That works fine. But since I use Xdove with IMAP I have the problem that my mailclient loads all mails I already stored in different folders again into the INBOX (some mails also multiple with subfolders). These mails are duplicates (or multiples) because I delete them all. The mails in my folders are still there. Up to now I tried different mail clients. Thunderbird 2.x/3.x, Pegasus 4.5, Outlook Express. All behave the same way, so I think it must have something to do with the server. Maybe one of you heard about this and can give me hints where to look for. Which configuration files shall I post to help debug? Thanks, Bernd

[Dovecot] Proxy, using checkpassword
by Aaron Roberts 27 Nov '09

27 Nov '09

Hi all, I think I may be doing something wrong but, is it possible to proxy POP and IMAP users when using a checkpassword script as the passdb? I'm trying to write a perl script to handle authentication to a mix of SQL and POP3 sources whilst logging user passwords at the same time for a migration. At the moment, I'm trying to set environment variables to tell dovecot what to do: $ENV{'AUTHORIZED'} = 2; $ENV{'proxy'} = 'Y'; $ENV{'host'} = $pop_success; Dovecot is logging the following: Nov 27 10:35:01 pop3 dovecot: auth(default): client in: AUTH#0118#011PLAIN#011service=pop3#011lip=192.168.100.143#011rip=192.168.100.60#011lport=110#011rport=3051#011resp=AGFpcmJlYXIAcG9uZGFhcjM= Nov 27 10:35:01 pop3 dovecot: auth(default): checkpassword(airbear,192.168.100.60): execute: /var/run/dovecot/login/authomatic.pl /usr/libexec/dovecot/checkpassword-reply Nov 27 10:35:02 pop3 dovecot: auth(default): checkpassword(airbear,192.168.100.60): Received input: userdb_uid=0#011userdb_gid=0#011 Nov 27 10:35:02 pop3 dovecot: auth(default): checkpassword(airbear,192.168.100.60): Received no input Nov 27 10:35:02 pop3 dovecot: auth(default): checkpassword(airbear,192.168.100.60): exit_status=0 Nov 27 10:35:02 pop3 dovecot: auth(default): client out: OK#0118#011user=airbear Nov 27 10:35:02 pop3 dovecot: dovecot: User airbear is missing UID (see mail_uid setting) Nov 27 10:35:02 pop3 dovecot: auth(default): master in: REQUEST#0115#01116075#0118 Nov 27 10:35:02 pop3 dovecot: auth(default): master out: USER#0115#011airbear Nov 27 10:35:02 pop3 dovecot: pop3-login: Internal login failure (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<airbear>, method=PLAIN, rip=192.168.100.60, lip=192.168.100.143 Thanks in advance, Aaron
