[Dovecot] fchown error on tmp files
by Kim Bisgaard 12 Jul '09

12 Jul '09

Hi, After upgrading to 1.2 I started getting fchown errors in the log. They look like: Jul 12 18:32:54 jukebox dovecot: deliver(kim): fchown(/data/mail/kim/.lists.mythtv-users/tmp/1247416373.M857540P19162.jukebox.alleroedderne.adsl.dk, -1, 500(k im)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=12(mail), group based on /data/mail/kim/.lists.mythtv-users) I have tried to get rid of the by changing the group of the files to "mail" but that does not help. I can not find a dovecot option that is documented to set the group to %u which would seem ideal. Any advice? Thanks in advance, Kim % dovecot -n # 1.2.0: /etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.27.25-170.2.72.fc10.i686 i686 Fedora release 10 (Cambridge) ext3 protocols: imaps listen: * login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_location: maildir:/data/mail/%u auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd plugin: sieve: ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir: ~/sieve

[Dovecot] Dovecot and ACL
by Daniel Spannbauer 11 Jul '09

11 Jul '09

Hello, I try to get per-mailbox-ACLs on dovecot. So, I've modded dovecot.conf: protocol imap { mail_plugins = acl } and plugin { acl = vfile } When I telnet to dovecot an try the command "capability" there is nothing about acl. I need acl for "open-xchange" so I can share Mailboxes over the webinterface. Do I have to create the acl-file manually or does dovecot this automaticly? reagrds Daniel -- Daniel Spannbauer Software Entwicklung marco Systemanalyse und Entwicklung GmbH Tel +49 8333 9233-27 Fax -11 Rechbergstr. 4 - 6, D 87727 Babenhausen Mobil +49 171 4033220 http://www.marco.de/ Email ds(a)marco.de Geschäftsführer Martin Reuter HRB 171775 Amtsgericht München

by Anton Dollmaier 11 Jul '09

11 Jul '09

Hi, I downloaded the debian-src-package of dovecot 1.2.1 from xi.rename-it.nl, and built the package myself - no errors present. after the upgrade, dovecot complains about an error with imap_quota, startup fails: Restarting IMAP/POP3 mail server: dovecotEdlopen(/usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap/lib10_quota_plugin.so) failed: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap/lib10_quota_plugin.so: undefined symbol: xdr_ext_getquota_args FCouldn't load required plugins Error: imap dump-capability process returned 89 Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf failed! I downgraded back to 1.2.0, which works normally. Any hints? Best regards, Anton

[Dovecot] problem with convert-tool: "Invalid mailbox name"
by Ezequiel Alfíe 11 Jul '09

11 Jul '09

Hello everyone. I'm having a problem with convert-tool while trying to convert mbox folders to maildir. I'm running dovecot-1.1.16 on Centos 5.3 If the user has subfolders, convert-tool fails saying: "Mailbox conversion: Couldn't create mailbox sub/folder3: Invalid mailbox name" However, if I ran the convert-tool with the same arguments and same folders with dovecot 1.1.11 on Ubuntu 9.04 it works fine. Any pointers for troubleshooting this? Thanks in advance, Ezequiel

[Dovecot] Can expire-tool skip folders with "expire time in future" errors?
by Ralph Seichter 10 Jul '09

10 Jul '09

Hi folks, when I run expire-tool, I often see messages like the following: # dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool Info: user/Trash: stop, expire time in future: Fri May 22 17:42:23 2009 the server's dovecot.conf contains the following line: expire = Trash 2 Junk 7 */News 30 */Reports 7 >From what I observe, an error of "expire time in future" in one of the Trash folders stops expire-tool alltogether, meaning that remaining folders like News or Reports don't get processed at all? Is this interpretation correct? If so, can I convince expire-tool to skip errors and continue processing other folders? -R
