[Dovecot] Occasional error msgs from 1.0-test49
by Gregory Bond 20 Oct '04

20 Oct '04

I'm running 1.0-test49 on Solaris 2.8. MUA is Thunderbird (or mutt) running on FreeBSD. I'm using Maildir boxes. Occasionally, when browsing new mail in INBOX, I get an error back from the imapd, displayed in Thunderbird as the following popup msg: The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: Error in IMAP command UID: Invalid BODY[..] parameter: Missing '>' in '<36864,-34800>'. >From this point, nothing much works reliably until I quit the MUA and … [View More]

[Dovecot] 1.0-test49 FD leak
by Gregory Bond 19 Oct '04

19 Oct '04

I'm running 1.0-test49 on Solaris 2.8. The good news is that this version fixes my problem with corrupted index files (so far). The bad news is it seems to be leaking FDs to do with inbox: imap 10198 gnb 156r VDIR 255,7032 8192 5784160 /home/gnb/Maildir/new imap 10198 gnb 157r VDIR 255,7032 1093632 2917923 /home/gnb/Maildir/cur imap 10198 gnb 158r VDIR 255,7032 8192 5784160 /home/gnb/Maildir/new imap 10198 gnb 159r VDIR 255,7032 … [View More]

[Dovecot] Index corruption
by Gregory Bond 18 Oct '04

18 Oct '04

I'm getting pretty constant index corruption on (admittedly large) Maildir folders. I'm running Thunderbird 0.7.3 and Mutt as my IMAP clients (on FreeBSD). Server is Dovecot 0.99.10.9 configured thusly: ./configure --disable-ipv6 CC=gcc-3.3 CXX=g++-3.3 --prefix=/opt/dovecot --without-pop3d on a Solaris 2.8 box. Maildirs are NFS-mounted, but the index files are on local UFS filesystem: default_mail_env = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/export/01/imapd/%u MTA is Postfix, LDA is procmail … [View More]

[Dovecot] test49 Authenticate PLAIN disabled stops pop3s
by Kim Culhan 18 Oct '04

18 Oct '04

Unlike test47, test49 refuses to authenticate pop3s if disable_plaintext_auth = yes Checked the crypto with: snort -vde tcp port 995 The connection is being made with ssl so it looks like the plaintext auth preventer is broken. -kim __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

[Dovecot] UIDL bug
by dovecot＠spam.turbolink.net 16 Oct '04

16 Oct '04

I noticed a problem with handling UIDL msgnumber in test46. If you do "UIDL 1" on a POP3 connection it returns the UID of the message followed by a dot and an error message. I made 2 changes: I added the following line to line 527 of src/pop3/commands.c ctx->message = message; I changed line 559 from: if (list_uids_iter(client, ctx)) to: if (!list_uids_iter(client, ctx)) Next time I'll submit an actual diff, I've made lots of other changes and comments in my source though so it's harder. - Mike

[Dovecot] 1.0-test49
by Timo Sirainen 16 Oct '04

16 Oct '04

http://dovecot.org/test/ Fixes the extra data appearing in POP3 mails (and possibly some other random problems). Created lib-sql API with asynchronous PostgreSQL and synchronous MySQL implementations. Also means I dropped mysql and pgsql userdb and passdb and replaced them with one generic sql userdb and passdb. If you were using the old ones, you'll have to fix your configuration. See included doc/dovecot-sql.conf for more information. Note that the password_query must now return "… [View More]
