Looking for Some Help with Dovecot Configuration for IMAP Access
by Selena Thomas 27 Jul '24

27 Jul '24

Hi everyone, I am having a bit of trouble setting up Dovecot for IMAP access. I’ve installed Dovecot and configured the main configuration file,, but I am not sure if I missed something important. Here’s what I have so far ::- 1. Dovecot Version: 2.3.11 2. OS: Ubuntu 20.04 3. Configuration Files: - `/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf` - `/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf` - `/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf` I can connect to the server, but I’m having issues with mailbox access and authentication. Does anyone have any tips or common pitfalls I should check: ?? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated..... Thanks in advance...

Sieve duplicate detection not working as expected
by Rosario Esposito 26 Jul '24

26 Jul '24

Hi, On a dovecot server (2.3.21) I have a simple sieve script: require ["duplicate"]; # rule:[duplicate] if duplicate { discard; stop; } I use virtual users with mail aliases on a LDAP backend. I have user "resposit" having 2 mail aliases: - resposit(a)na.infn.it - rosario.esposito(a)na.infn.it If I send a single message to both aliases I still receive 2 copies as you can see from the attached log. Is the "duplicate" sieve extension supposed to work this way ? Any help would be much appreciated ! -- Rosario Esposito

SMTPUTF8 support
by Dāvis Mosāns 26 Jul '24

26 Jul '24

Hi, I'm interested in SMTPUTF8 support in Dovecot. It seems it's still not implemented? Any plans on implementing it? How much work would it be? I couldn't find any mention of this functionality. Postfix has support which is enabled by default but it's not usable if Dovecot doesn't support it. Thanks! Best regards, Dāvis

It's OK to hide it to the mailbox table as sieveFilterID. Then you can do map { pattern = priv/sieve/name/default table = mailbox username_field = email value_field = sieveFilterID } Aki > On 26/07/2024 10:14 EEST Adam Miller <adam(a)ardaemail.com> wrote: > > > ------ Original Message ------ > From "Aki Tuomi via dovecot" <dovecot(a)dovecot.org> > To "Adam Miller" <adam(a)ardaemail.com>; "Adam Miller via dovecot" > <dovecot(a)dovecot.org> > Date 7/23/2024 10:06:38 PM > Subject Re: Re[6]: Sieve Filters with MySQL > > >Hi! > > > >Usually how the "isActive" stuff is done is bit different. > > > >fwiw i would do the schema differently, and have two tables > > > >table 1: > > > >CREATE TABLE sieve_name_id ( > > id INT, > > email VARCHAR(255), > > name VARCHAR(255), > > PRIMARY KEY(email, name) > >) > > > >table 2 > > > >CREATE TABLE sieve_scripts ( > > id INT, > > content TEXT > >) > > > >Then you can map 'default' to the active script id, or leave it missing when there is no script enabled.

sieve mail date change
by Marc 24 Jul '24

24 Jul '24

I am a bit rookie with sieve. Some time ago I created a sieve pipe that would sometimes alter alter the subject and move a message to a different mailbox. Currently this results in that a date changes of this message while I don't see anything in the source altering a date. What could be causing this and how to work around this?

When I run manually queries, everything works fine though I am not entirely sure what the queries are that Dovecot is executing. Any help is appreciated! Also, if I could use the “isActive” field, that would be great as well. My plan to start here is to only have one record in the table per mailbox which would contain all Sieve filters. Eventually, it would be nice if I could adjust the configuration to allow for more than one that returns concatenated so any help there would be great as well! Thank you!

Key metrics to monitor for dovecot at CloudWatch
by Sivakumar Vadivel 24 Jul '24

24 Jul '24

Hello Team, Configured dovecot mail server and SES will receive and forward to SNS topic. Lambda subscribed to the topic and it will receive the mail and write to the EFS volume. EFS volume mounted on both dovecot and lambda. Also enabled AWS Cloudwatch to monitor overall infra. I'm going to enable anomaly detection at Cloudwatch and I want to know the list of key metrics to monitor. I'm thinking of the following metrics. 1. No of bounce 2. PublishFailed & Success 3. EFS disk storage Please suggest the other key metrics, so that I can enable anomaly detection to understand and create the cloudwatch alarm.

Hello again everyone! I am trying to get the “doveadm stats dump” command to work and even though it does not error, there are no stats. When I try to enable the stats, I get the following error: “Error: Plugin 'stats' not found from directory /usr/lib/dovecot/modules” which is correct, the “stats” plugin does not exist. I do have “/usr/lib/dovecot/stats”. Here’s my configuration: Dovecot Version: 2.3.16 Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04.1 Packages Installed: - dovecot-antispam - dovecot-core - dovecot-imapd - dovecot-lmtpd - dovecot-mysql - dovecot-pop3d - dovecot-sieve Packages Available: - dovecot-auth-lua - dovecot-dev - dovecot-fts-xapian - dovecot-gssapi - dovecot-ldap - dovecot-lucene - dovecot-managesieved - dovecot-pgsql - dovecot-solr - dovecot-sqlite - dovecot-submissiond Dovecot Configuration (without stats enabled): # 2.3.16 (7e2e900c1a): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.5.16 (09c29328) # OS: Linux 6.5.0-1020-aws x86_64 Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS nfs4 # Hostname: ec2-us-east-1a-arda-mail-001.ardaemail.com auth_mechanisms = plain login auth_worker_max_count = 5 base_dir = /var/run/dovecot debug_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/debug.log default_internal_group = ardaemail default_internal_user = ardaemail dict { quota = mysql:/etc/dovecot/inc.d/inc.quota.user.sql.conf } hostname = = mail.ardaemail.com info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/info.log instance_name = ec2-us-east-1a-arda-mail-001.ardaemail.com listen = 172.16.0.200 log_path = /var/log/dovecot/general.log login_greeting = Welcome to ArdaEmail mail_gid = ardaemail mail_location = maildir:/mnt/mail/%d/%n mail_max_userip_connections = 1000 mail_plugins = " quota mailbox_alias" mail_uid = ardaemail maildir_stat_dirs = yes namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Archive { auto = subscribe special_use = \Archive } mailbox Drafts { auto = no special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { auto = no autoexpunge = 90 days special_use = \Junk } mailbox SPAM { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 90 days } mailbox Sent { auto = no special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { auto = no autoexpunge = 30 days special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/inc.d/inc.sql.conf driver = sql } plugin { imapsieve_mailbox1_before = file:/etc/dovecot/sieve.d/spam/learn-spam.sieve imapsieve_mailbox1_causes = COPY imapsieve_mailbox1_name = Junk imapsieve_mailbox2_before = file:/etc/dovecot/sieve.d/spam/learn-ham.sieve imapsieve_mailbox2_causes = COPY imapsieve_mailbox2_from = Junk imapsieve_mailbox2_name = * mailbox_alias_new = Junk Email mailbox_alias_new2 = Junk E-mail mailbox_alias_new3 = Sent Messages mailbox_alias_new4 = Sent Items mailbox_alias_new5 = Deleted Items mailbox_alias_old = Junk mailbox_alias_old2 = Junk mailbox_alias_old3 = Sent mailbox_alias_old4 = Sent mailbox_alias_old5 = Trash quota = dict:User Quota::proxy::quota quota_exceeded_message = Mailbox is full and cannot receive any more emails quota_status_nouser = DUNNO quota_status_success = DUNNO quota_warning = bytes=95%% quota-warning 95 %u quota_warning2 = bytes=85%% quota-warning 85 %u quota_warning3 = bytes=75%% quota-warning 75 %u recipient_delimiter = + sieve_after = /etc/dovecot/sieve.d/after/ sieve_before = /etc/dovecot/sieve.d/before/ sieve_extensions = +spamtest +spamtestplus +virustest +notify +imapflags sieve_global_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.pipe sieve_pipe_bin_dir = /etc/dovecot/sieve sieve_plugins = sieve_imapsieve sieve_extprograms sieve_quota_max_storage = 0 sieve_spamtest_max_header = X-Spamd-Result: -?[[:digit:]]+\.[[:digit:]]+ / (-?[[:digit:]]+\.[[:digit:]]) sieve_spamtest_status_header = X-Spamd-Result: (-?[[:digit:]]+\.[[:digit:]]+) / -?[[:digit:]]+\.[[:digit:]] sieve_spamtest_status_type = score } postmaster_address = postmaster(a)ardaemail.com protocols = imap lmtp service auth-worker { group = ardaemail user = ardaemail } service auth { group = ardaemail unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = ardaemail mode = 0666 user = ardaemail } user = ardaemail } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } process_min_avail = 8 service_count = 0 } service imap { vsz_limit = 4 G } service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 0 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 0 } } service quota-status { executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/quota-status -p postfix unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/quota-status { user = postfix } } service quota-warning { executable = script /etc/dovecot/bin/quota-warning.sh unix_listener quota-warning { group = ardaemail mode = 0666 user = ardaemail } } service submission-login { inet_listener submission { port = 0 } } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/mail.ardaemail.com/fullchain.pem ssl_client_ca_dir = /etc/ssl/certs ssl_dh = # hidden, use -P to show it ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it ssl_prefer_server_ciphers = yes userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/inc.d/inc.sql.conf driver = sql } protocol imap { mail_plugins = " quota mailbox_alias imap_sieve imap_quota" } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " quota mailbox_alias sieve" } The “stats” plugin does not seem to be found anywhere from my searching. Any help is greatly appreciated. I would like to be able to turn on the INET listener to hit the stats via an HTTP request. Thank you!

Dovecot proxy/director/replicator upgrade path
by Andrea Gabellini 23 Jul '24

23 Jul '24

Hello, I manage a Dovecot installation version 2.3.4.1 with a pair of proxy/director in front and two backends that use the replicator plugin to synchronize emails between them. I would like to update all 4 machines and would like to understand if I can directly jump to the latest version 2.3.21 and if there is a logical sequence to follow, such as updating the backends first and then the frontends or vice versa.
