[Dovecot] Auto-expire messages in a folder
by Mike Cisar 05 Nov '06

05 Nov '06

I have a Fedora 5 server running Dovecot (currently 1.0 rc10). The spam filter (amavis) automatically tags email (using plussed addressing) such that messages flagged as spam are sorted into a "spambox" folder by procmail. Seemed like a good idea at the time, but because of some legacy issues with filesystem quota also being in place, combined with most users connecting with POP3 rather than IMAP... spam doesn't stay in their inbox, they don't check their spambox and they are very quickly over quota. What I would like to do is stick with the "spambox" folder idea, but have any messages in that folder which are older than a certain number of days deleted automatically. Could this be done by Dovecot? If so how would dovecot know to visit all the user's mailboxes to do it... or would it only be able to do so when a user logged in via IMAP (as opposed to POP3)? If not, is anyone aware of a script that I could run in nightly maintenance to do a cleanup pass on all the mailboxes? I know there are any number of ways that this could be accomplished but I would like to do it as much within my existing framework as possible... sendmail/procmail/amavis on the delivery side, dovecot in the middle, horde/imp for webmail and whatever email client the end users have (likely Outlook/Outlook Express for the most part)... all pretty generic, standard mailbox formats... nothing fancy like data stored in mySQL or anything like that. As everyone encounters, the more parts you change, the more other parts you have to fix to be compatible with the changes :-) Obviously I would like the solution to also be as feature rich as I can at the same time (might as well wish for it all right :-). Maybe for the sake of the POP3 folks it would also be nice to generate a once-daily email with the names, subjects of the messages in the folder saying "here's what is in your spam folder, please log in to webmail to manage your spam" (and in a perfect world some sort of link to click on which could move the message from the spambox back into the inbox). Does anyone have any solutions they can share that run within a similar framework to what I have set up? The thing that I need in the immediate term is to purge the spam folder automatically, the mid-term goal is to evolve that into a sort of spam-processing center/solution for the users. Thanks for any suggestions! Cheers, >>>>> Mike <<<<<

[Dovecot] ~/.maildir preferable to %h/Maildir and ~/Maildir?
by Jeff Kowalczyk 05 Nov '06

05 Nov '06

I have a recently deployed dovecot server and am readying another. Upon updating to rc12, I note the following change in the default dovecot.conf file: -default_mail_env = mbox:/var/spool/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/dovecot/%u +mail_location = maildir:~/.maildir Integrating this change to my local dovecot.conf: # formerly used default_mail_env = maildir:%h/Maildir # dovecot default mail_location = maildir:~/.maildir mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir With unix users of the form: myuser:x:505:100:My User:/home/myuser:/sbin/nologin each having ~/Maildir, should I: 1) use the ~/.maildir form over ~/Maildir. 2) use the ~ instead of %h 3) do anything for dovecot's benefit (reindex, etc.) besides a per-user 'mv ~/Maildir ~/.maildir' if 1). I came straight from an ancient sendmail mbox setup to dovecot, so I want to do things the best-pracitce IMAP/dovecot way. Thanks.

[Dovecot] Sending email using IMAP
by Marc Perkel 05 Nov '06

05 Nov '06

This is something for after the 1.0 release but I think it's important and I'm going to try to figure out how to make it happen. I'd like to see some way to pass outgoing email from Thunderbird back to dovecot through some new command that we would have to make up. Email would be sent back over the IMAP connection and when Dovecot gets it dovecot would hand it off to an SMTP server that would deliver it. If a crude experimental spec can be written I'll try to find someone on the Thunderbird side to write some sort of module to talk to it. The reason for this is that I think that the elimination of SMTP from the client is a big step to control spam. The idea being that if IMAP can transfer outgoing mail the SMTP wouldn't be necessary for clients and we can block port 25 on windows machines and viruses can't send email. And the virus wouldn't have access to the IMAP password so viruses can't authenticate to send mail. So - the key question is - what would it take to create an outgoing spec for sending email over IMAP? Like to see something clean and simple.

[Dovecot] MySQL Configuration
by Gerard Seibert 04 Nov '06

04 Nov '06

Dovecot 1.0.rc10 FreeBSD 6.1 This is probably a dumb question; however, I have never let a little thing like that bother me in the past. In the 'dovecot.conf' file there are the follow two sections: # SQL database passdb sql { # Path for SQL configuration file, see doc/dovecot-sql.conf for example args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf } userdb sql { # Path for SQL configuration file, see doc/dovecot-sql.conf for example args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf } I keep the 'users' and their respective 'passwords' in the same MySQL database. I am not sure why I wouldn't. Therefore, would it not make more sense to have just one MySQL configuration line in the 'dovecot.conf' file rather than two, or am I missing something here? -- Gerard Seibert gerard(a)seibercom.net Laws are like sausages.

[Dovecot] auth-req-handler.c adds spurious tab
by Chris Laif 04 Nov '06

04 Nov '06

If the auth backend (postgresql in my case) returns extra fields, and all of these extra_fields begin with 'userdb_', the auth_callback functions adds an unwanted extra tab at the end of the response: auth(default): client out: OK^I8^Iuser=foo@bar^I This extra tab at the end confuses exim's dovecot-auth handler (the exim-dovecot auth handler does not correctly count the number of returned fields then (side note: the code on exim's side should probably be cleaned up as well)). A quick fix is attached below.

This is a short excerpt from my dovecot.log showing the problem: > dovecot: Nov 03 05:27:02 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<howard(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:81.44.31.210, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:27:02 Info: POP3(howard(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 05:32:01 Error: POP3(joyce(a)obfusca.ted): mbox sync: > Expunged message reappeared in mailbox > /var/mail/vhosts/obfusca.ted/joyce (UID 1443 < 1446, seq=2, idx_msgs=0) > dovecot: Nov 03 05:32:01 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<joyce(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:67.9.149.201, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:32:02 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<howard(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:81.44.31.210, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:32:03 Info: POP3(joyce(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=3/163473, del=3/3, size=163419 > dovecot: Nov 03 05:32:03 Error: POP3(joyce(a)obfusca.ted): mbox sync: > Expunged message reappeared in mailbox > /var/mail/vhosts/obfusca.ted/joyce (UID 1443 < 1449, seq=2, idx_msgs=0) > dovecot: Nov 03 05:32:03 Info: POP3(howard(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 05:37:02 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<howard(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:81.44.31.210, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:37:03 Info: POP3(howard(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/3, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 05:42:01 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<joyce(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:67.9.149.201, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:42:02 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<howard(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:81.44.31.210, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:42:02 Info: POP3(howard(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 05:42:03 Info: POP3(joyce(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=3/163461, del=3/3, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 05:47:02 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<howard(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:81.44.31.210, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:47:02 Info: POP3(howard(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 05:52:01 Error: POP3(joyce(a)obfusca.ted): mbox sync: > Expunged message reappeared in mailbox > /var/mail/vhosts/obfusca.ted/joyce (UID 1449 < 1452, seq=2, idx_msgs=0) > dovecot: Nov 03 05:52:01 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<joyce(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:67.9.149.201, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:52:02 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<howard(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:81.44.31.210, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:52:02 Info: POP3(howard(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 05:52:03 Info: POP3(joyce(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=3/163473, del=3/3, size=163419 > dovecot: Nov 03 05:52:03 Error: POP3(joyce(a)obfusca.ted): mbox sync: > Expunged message reappeared in mailbox > /var/mail/vhosts/obfusca.ted/joyce (UID 1449 < 1455, seq=2, idx_msgs=0) > dovecot: Nov 03 05:57:02 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<howard(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:81.44.31.210, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 05:57:03 Info: POP3(howard(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/3, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 06:02:01 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<joyce(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:67.9.149.201, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 06:02:02 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<howard(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:81.44.31.210, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 06:02:02 Info: POP3(howard(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 06:02:02 Info: POP3(joyce(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=3/163461, del=3/3, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 06:07:02 Info: pop3-login: Login: > user=<howard(a)obfusca.ted>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:81.44.31.210, > lip=::ffff:zz.zz.zz.zz, TLS > dovecot: Nov 03 06:07:02 Info: POP3(howard(a)obfusca.ted): Disconnected: > Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 > dovecot: Nov 03 06:12:01 Error: POP3(joyce(a)obfusca.ted): mbox sync: > Expunged message reappeared in mailbox > /var/mail/vhosts/obfusca.ted/joyce (UID 1455 < 1458, seq=2, idx_msgs=0) Dovecot version: [jhg@helios ~]$ rpm -q dovecot dovecot-1.0-0.beta8.2.fc5 The MTA is postfix, and this is the first time this has ever happened. I made a copy of the mbox file, and find that it's over a megabyte long. Checking the postfix maillog I find that only three messages arrived for that user in the hour preceding the start of this behavior (all SPAM). No other users are affected, and I can't see anything obviously wrong in the mbox file. Could a bad message cause this?

[Dovecot] Server-side mail archiving - possible dovecot lda feature?
by Charles Marcus 03 Nov '06

03 Nov '06

Hi Timo, I have a question on the feasibility of adding the capability directly in dovecot LDA (or maybe this wouldn't be the correct place?) to provide a server-side mail archiving feature. What I'd like is a simple way to define a maildir, ie: vmail/archive/$user/Inbox and vmail/archive/$user/Inbox.Sent And then have the dovecot LDA deliver a copy of all mail (incoming and outgoing) to this archive folder. Is the dovecot LDA the best place for this to go? Or would an entirely new plug-in be more appropriate? My boss may be willing to pay to have this capability added. I have investigated other third party solutions, but I would prefer something that is tightly integrated with dovecot. I look forward to your response... -- Best regards, Charles
