.dovecot.sieve.log/tmp failed: Not a directory

Hello I am running Dovecot 2.3.9 for IMAP access with RainLoop webmail and have noticed for an account where I have some filters setup that I get the following error messages in the dovecot log file: Mar 17 19:02:50 mbox dovecot: imap(mail(a)domain.tld)<10511><ubAzvhCh1N2yxeu/>: Error: stat(/var/vmail/domain.tld/mail/.dovecot.sieve/tmp) failed: Not a directory Mar 17 19:02:50 mbox dovecot: imap(mail(a)domain.tld)<10511><ubAzvhCh1N2yxeu/>: Error: stat(/var/vmail/domain.tld/mail/.dovecot.sieve.log/tmp) failed: Not a directory This happens when I access the Dovecot mailbox server using an iphone. Also on the iphone I see these "mail" folders but they are not really mail folders... With Thunderbird as mail client it looks all good and I don't get this error. Is this normal? if not, how can I prevent this issue? Regards, Mabi

Quota plugin and director
by Simone Lazzaris 19 Mar '20

19 Mar '20

Hello dovecot! I administer a dovecot installation with 30k users. I've got 4 dovecot directors as frontend and 10 backends. The mailbox are now in maildir format, with maildir++ quota, on a shared netapp filer. Indexes are local on each backend. I'm reconfiguring the quota plugin: as a first step, I want to use the clone plugin to keep a copy of the quota on a redis database. Next, I'm going to use the "count" quota backend. I've configured without (many) issues the quota clone plugin, but now I want to force the recalculation on all the mailboxes, because I've got some (not many, but some) mailboxes that are mostly unused and are not refreshed. At first, I was going to use "doveadm quota recalc -A", but.... I want each backend to perform the recalculation ONLY for the users he it's managing. I can't perform "doveadm quota recalc -A" on the directors, because the quota plugin is enabled only on the backends. I can parse the user mapping on the directors and split the calculation, one user a time, on the backends, but I feel I'm choosing a overly complicated path. So.... which is the right way to do this? Thanks. -- *Simone Lazzaris* *Qcom S.p.A. a Socio Unico* Via Roggia Vignola, 9 | 24047 Treviglio (BG)T +39 0363 47905 | D +39 0363 1970352 simone.lazzaris(a)qcom.it[1] | www.qcom.it[2] * LinkedIn[3]* | *Facebook*[4] -------- [1] mailto:simone.lazzaris@qcom.it [2] https://www.qcom.it [3] https://www.linkedin.com/company/qcom-spa [4] http://www.facebook.com/qcomspa

I have a smoothly running dovecot 2.3.7.2 & sendmail IMAP with SSL combo on Fedora 30. However, I see oodles of these when ssl verbosity is turned up: lmtp(25738): Debug: SSL_get_servername() failed Should I be concerned or is there a setting that stops that?

Re: Headsup on feature removal - password
by Rupert Gallagher 18 Mar '20

> Password schemes: HMAC-MD5, RPA, SKEY, PLAIN-MD4, LANMAN, NTLM, SMD5 The web is flooded with plain text passwords and hashed passwords harvested from hacked servers. Dovecot stores passwords with the same scheme used for client authentication. Therefore, we use crammd5/hmac-md5. It does not look like much, but is better than plaintext. As md5 is about to go, and I have no intention to store passwords in plaintext, I need to split the scheme used to store passwords from the scheme used for authentication, and migrate storage from md5 to bcrypt. Since this is not possible, I think I will drop passwords entirely and use certificates.

Getting autoexpunge to work
by Philip Colmer 17 Mar '20

17 Mar '20

dovecot 2.2.33.2 (d6601f4ec) on Ubuntu 18.04 The recent announcement that expunge is going to be deprecated and that autoexpunge should be used instead reminded me that my recent switch over to autoexpunge is not working. There has been an active discussion today about getting expunge working so I thought I'd use the commands suggested there to figure out why autoexpunge might not be doing anything. "doveadm search -u local-finance-support mailbox INBOX savedbefore 12w" returns nothing even though the first email for that user is dated November 12th 2019. Using the message ID for that first email, I then tried this: doveadm search -u local-finance-support HEADER MESSAGE-ID "CAHgKB_f5ttC3kLgxgZiNzwyySvUfb-NXodqZ7K3+dkHKCOUwhg(a)mail.gmail.com" f55e9737e270c2564d1a0000e171d23e 37 then doveadm fetch -u local-finance-support "mailbox date.saved" UID 37 mailbox: INBOX date.saved: 2020-03-17 14:34:12 Why on earth is dovecot showing today's date for that message? What have I misunderstood or misconfigured? Regards Philip

doveadm expunge not expunging anymore
by mabi 17 Mar '20

17 Mar '20

Hello, I have migrated my mailbox server from Dovecot 2.1.7 (Debian 7) to Dovecot 2.3.4 (Debian 10) and have a crontab setup in root to daily delete all mails in the INBOX of a specific user which are older than 90 days like this: /usr/bin/doveadm expunge -u username\(a)domain.com mailbox INBOX savedbefore 90d Unfortunately this does not work anymore. I also tried to run the command manually as root which does not return any output or errors. Any idea why this command does not work anymore? Regards, Mabi

LDAP pass_filter seems to be not working
by Balázs Zeller 16 Mar '20

16 Mar '20

Hi, we are using dovecot --version: 2.3.9.3 (9f41b88fa) with LDAP integration Just discovered the the config which was working for a while is not working now. (we are constantly upgrading dovecot). we have smtp/imap/pop3/sieveEnabled field in our LDAP directory to control which user is able to use witch services. The pass filter was used for control the usage for years now with %LsEnabled filter (see below at config dump) We just discovered that this filter is not working anymore! We not even see any pass_filter queries in LDAP. We see user_filter queries but no pass_filter queries. Did we miss something in the changelog? *LDAP configuration:* grep -v '^ *$#.*$\?$' dovecot-ldap.conf.ext uris = ldap://ldap.services/ dn = cn=administrator,dc=top dnpass = ************ debug_level = 1 auth_bind = yes auth_bind_userdn = mail=%u,ou=service_mail,dc=top ldap_version = 3 base = ou=service_mail,dc=top deref = never scope = subtree user_attrs = mailQuota=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$,mailLocation=mail user_filter = (&(objectClass=customMail)(!(mailEnabled=FALSE))(mail=%u)) pass_attrs = =user=%{ldap:mail} pass_filter = (&(objectClass=customMail)(!(mailEnabled=FALSE))(mail=%u)(%LsEnabled=TRUE)) iterate_attrs = mail=user iterate_filter = (objectClass=demonMail) default_pass_scheme = SSHA *Dovecot main config:* dovecot -n # 2.3.9.3 (9f41b88fa): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.5.9 (db4e9a2f) # OS: Linux 4.19.87-1.ph3-esx x86_64 xfs # Hostname: 26feef366ef9 auth_cache_negative_ttl = 1 mins auth_cache_size = 10 M auth_cache_ttl = 1 mins auth_debug = yes auth_master_user_separator = * auth_mechanisms = login plain auth_verbose = yes default_vsz_limit = 512 M disable_plaintext_auth = no doveadm_api_key = # hidden, use -P to show it first_valid_gid = 901 first_valid_uid = 901 hostname = mail.****.** imap_client_workarounds = tb-extra-mailbox-sep imapc_features = rfc822.size fetch-headers imapc_host = x.x.x.x imapc_master_user = masteruser imapc_password = # hidden, use -P to show it imapc_user = %u last_valid_gid = 901 last_valid_uid = 901 lda_mailbox_autocreate = yes lda_mailbox_autosubscribe = yes mail_gid = 901 mail_home = /vmail/%d/%n/ mail_location = maildir:/vmail/%d/%n/ mail_plugins = " quota zlib trash fts fts_solr" mail_prefetch_count = 20 mail_privileged_group = mail mail_uid = 901 managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate mime foreverypart extracttext namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = separator = / type = private } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/master-users driver = passwd-file master = yes } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-userdb.conf.ext driver = ldap } plugin { fts = solr fts_autoindex = yes fts_solr = url=http://hostname:8983/solr/dovecot/ quota = dict:user::file:/vmail/%d/%n/dovecot.quota quota_exceeded_message = The quota of the recipient is full, please try it again later sieve = /vmail/%d/%n/dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = /vmail/.sieve/%u sieve_max_redirects = 20 trash = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-trash.conf.ext zlib_save = gz zlib_save_level = 6 } pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls postmaster_address = postmaster(a)hostname.com protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = vmail mode = 0660 user = vmail } } service doveadm { inet_listener http { port = 8099 } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } process_min_avail = 4 service_count = 0 vsz_limit = 2 G } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 110 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 995 ssl = yes } } service stats { unix_listener stats-reader { group = mail mode = 0666 user = } unix_listener stats-writer { group = mail mode = 0666 user = } } ssl_ca = </etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt ssl_cert = </ssl/cert.pem ssl_cipher_list = ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2:!EXP:!aNULL ssl_dh = # hidden, use -P to show it ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext driver = ldap } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " quota zlib trash fts fts_solr sieve quota zlib" } protocol imap { mail_max_userip_connections = 50 mail_plugins = " quota zlib trash fts fts_solr imap_quota zlib" } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = " quota zlib trash fts fts_solr quota" } Regards Balazs

lmtp and recipient_delimiter
by Juri Haberland 16 Mar '20

16 Mar '20

Hi list, I have a small problem with recipient_delimiters contained in usernames. Recently I have extended recipient_delimiter from "+" to "+-" in both Postfix and Dovecot (using lmtp) and now any user that have a '-' in it's username can't receive mail anymore, because lmtp truncates the localpart after the '-' and of course can't find the first half in the user database. To illustrate: given an account "foo-bar(a)example.com", I get the following log entry from postfix: Mar 9 09:31:43 batleth postfix/lmtp[6196]: 9A7BA33E005B: to=<foo-bar(a)example.com>, relay=batleth.sapienti-sat.org[private/dovecot-lmtp], delay=20, delays=20/0.01/0.01/0.08, dsn=5.1.1, status=bounced (host batleth.sapienti-sat.org[private/dovecot-lmtp] said: 550 5.1.1 <foo-bar(a)example.com> User doesn't exist: foo(a)example.com (in reply to RCPT TO command)) Is there any way to tell lmtp to first look for <user><delimiter><extension> and if that fails look for <user> only (the reverse order would be ok, too)?
