[Dovecot] v1.2.3 release candidate
by Timo Sirainen 03 Aug '09

03 Aug '09

http://dovecot.org/tmp/dovecot-1.2.3.rc.tar.gz I thought about doing v1.2.3 release immediately, but I think I'll wait about 10-24h first. So until then, testing this RC is appreciated and hopefully we'll have a good release this time. :) + Allow namespace prefix to be opened as mailbox, if a mailbox already exists in the root dir. - Maildir: dovecot-uidlist was being recreated every time a mailbox was accessed, even if nothing changed. - listescape plugin was somewhat broken - Compiling fixes for non-Linux/BSDs

[Dovecot] Performance problem with STATUS after upgrade (1.0.15 -> 1.2.2)
by Stefan Förster 03 Aug '09

03 Aug '09

Hello list, after upgrading dovecot from 1.0.15 to 1.2.2 (and carefully reading through the upgrading notes in the wiki), I got sieve, quota and fts up and running, but I'm now suffering some kind of performance problem with the STATUS command. Symptoms: Reading mail on the IMAP server itself with "mutt", no TLS/SSL, connected through loopback interface. Whenever I idle a bit and then hit any key thereafter, for example to change into another mailbox, mutt will send a number of "STATUS" commands: # T 127.0.0.1:53604 -> 127.0.0.1:143 [AP] DONE..a0070 STATUS "postfix-buch" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0071 STATUS "postfix-users" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0072 STATUS "Trash" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0073 STATUS "Sent" (UIDNEXT UIDVALID ITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0074 STATUS "mailman-users" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0075 STATUS "mailman-developers" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0076 STATUS "de-postfix-users" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0077 STATUS "amavis-users" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0078 STATUS "spam" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0079 STATUS "localreports" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT)..a0080 STATUS "Drafts" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN R ECENT)..a0081 STATUS "exim-users" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY UNSEEN RECENT).. # (The whole conversation is available as: http://www.incertum.net/~cite/dovecot-snoop.log) Those commands take almost one(!) second to complete. I've used strace to capture what happens and made the results available at http://www.incertum.net/~cite/imap.log. With 1.0.15, I never noticed this kind of delay, and reading mail feels really sluggish at the moment. Is there any way to improve performance?

[Dovecot] Subfolders not listed in Dovecot-1.2.2 with listescape
by Petter Urkedal 03 Aug '09

03 Aug '09

After upgrading to Dovecot-1.2.2 from 1.1* subfolders disappeared, though it was possible to access them directly, e.g. with "mutt -f =lists/dovecot". The problem only occurs if the listescape plugin is enabled. Some relevant bits from the configuration: namespace private { # The only namespace. separator = / prefix = inbox = yes } protocol imap { mail_plugins = fts fts_squat listescape }

[Dovecot] Best way to get login protocol (pop3/imap) in post-login script
by Zhang Huangbin 03 Aug '09

03 Aug '09

Hi, all. I found doc here: http://wiki.dovecot.org/PostLoginScripting and use ${USER}, ${IP} to track last-login username and remote ip address, but how can i track the mail protocol it used? like pop3, pop3s, imap, imaps? Currently, i wrote shell script as post-login script, and use below command to get protocol: ---- $(basename ${MAIL_PLUGIN_DIR}) ---- But is it the best way to get it? Thanks very much. :) -- Best Regards.

[Dovecot] How to delete retrieved mail
by Don Muller 03 Aug '09

03 Aug '09

Hi All, I use Dovecot and XMail on a QNAP TS-509 NAS. QNAP has combined the two into a package they call XDove. Everything seems to be working great except for one thing. When Dovecot retrieves the mail from XMail it is not removing it from XMail. It is leaving a copy on XMail. Is there an option I can set in Dovecot so it will delete the mail message from XMail when it retrieves it. Thanks Don

[Dovecot] Client Cert Auth Problem
by Christian Felsing 03 Aug '09

03 Aug '09

Hello, is there a config possible which supports both of following authentication schemes ? 1st: If user presents a client certificate, he can log in w/o username/password, where user id comes from CN. Accepting any password is not the right solution. 2nd: If user does not present a client certificate, he have to authenticate by username/password. In both cases user data is read from userdb LDAP, which is already working. I was not able to get both auth schemes working at same time. With Postfix such a config is fully operable. regards Christian
