Hello, I use mbox compressed by gzip as read-only folder (using zlib plugin). This setup worked for a while, but doesn't work with latest dovecot version (2.2.27). I have error in logs: Panic: file istream-zlib.c: line 416 (i_stream_zlib_seek): assertion failed: (ret == -1) I can see list of messages in MUA but can't ready body of any message. I've tried to delete indexes, but it doesn't help.

dsync backup public namespace - how?
by Tobias Kirchhofer 03 Feb '17

03 Feb '17

Hello, We just celebrated the launch of our new mailserver setup (Dovecot and Postfix). Really nice! Now we want to change our quickfix backup with rsync to dsync. For mailder backup of users this was an easy task: dsync -v -f -u "${user}" backup "maildir:${destination}" (local file path destination) We use many public folder with ACL and now we are wondering how we can backup these folder in a similar manner: a) dsync -u doveadm(a)domain.com backup -n Namespacename "maildir:/var/vmail-backup/backup/public" or b) dsync -v -u doveadm(a)domain.com -N backup "maildir:${destination} But this is not working. a) does nothing, no error b) Error message: doveadm(doveadm(a)domain.com): Fatal: -N parameter requires syncing with remote host Any ideas? # dovecot --version 2.2.13 -- Tobias Kirchhofer tobias(a)kirchhofer.net

Hello, Still working with my dsync pb. I have done a clone (vmware) of my email server. Today I have two strictly identical emails servers (server1 (main) and server2 (bck) (except IP, hostname and mail_replica). The ssl config on my both server: ssl_protocols = !SSLv2 !SSLv3 ssl = required verbose_ssl = no ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/private.key ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/key.crt ssl_ca = </etc/ssl/certs/GandiStandardSSLCA2.pem This config is working for my email client and my email web interface ... Are they on the right order ? mail_replica = tcps:server1@domain.ltd and tcps:server2@domain.ltd There is trafic on my iptables rules on my both servers: 60 3600 ACCEPT tcp -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpt:4711 My error message from server1 (main server): Feb 03 08:38:08 doveadm(user1(a)domain.ltd): Error: sync: Couldn't initialize SSL context: Can't verify remote server certs without trusted CAs (ssl_client_ca_* settings) Feb 03 08:42:35 doveadm(user2(a)domain.ltd): Error: sync: Couldn't initialize SSL context: Can't verify remote server certs without trusted CAs (ssl_client_ca_* settings) Feb 03 08:42:35 doveadm(user3(a)domain.ltd): Error: sync: Couldn't initialize SSL context: Can't verify remote server certs without trusted CAs (ssl_client_ca_* settings) Feb 03 08:42:35 doveadm(user4(a)domain.ltd): Error: sync: Couldn't initialize SSL context: Can't verify remote server certs without trusted CAs (ssl_client_ca_* settings) No logs from server2 Any ideas ?

Dovecot, Postfix, and SASL AUTH EXTERNAL
by Matt Horan 03 Feb '17

03 Feb '17

Hey folks, I've been using the ever popular Dovecot and Postfix combo for years. A while back I also introduced mutual TLS for mail clients to Dovecot and Postfix. I achieved this by a custom checkpassword script and SASL AUTH EXTERNAL for IMAP. This all worked great with clients like Thunderbird, which can be configured to use mutual TLS and SASL EXTERNAL for IMAP, and mutual TLS with no additional authentication for SMTP. However, I found that other mail clients, in particular K-9 mail on Android, [1] are not compatible with this configuration. I've been patching K-9 mail to work around this issue for some time now. If I configure K-9 to behave like Thunderbird when sending messages via SMTP, all is well. However, there's been some activity on an issue [2] which suggests some changes may be upcoming which will be incompatible with my patch. Without my patch, K-9 tries to auth with Postfix via AUTH EXTERNAL after presenting its client certificate. Despite configuring Postfix to prefer certificates before SASL, Postfix forwards the authentication request to Dovecot, which rejects it without even trying my checkpassword script. With my patch, K-9 simply initiates an SMTP connection without any additional authentication when mutual TLS is used. This behavior is similar to Thunderbird. The K-9 maintainers do not seem interested in merging this behavior into mainline. I can't seem to get Postfix to ignore the SASL failures in the case of successful mutual TLS. I want to use SASL authentication as a fallback from untrusted clients, where I use a combination of password and one time code. Even if Dovecot did not reject the AUTH EXTERNAL request from Postfix, I'm not sure how it could determine whether a valid client certificate were presented to Postfix, unless some additional information were passed along in the SASL request. I'd love to hear any thoughts from the community on how to move forward here. Should I pressure the K-9 maintainers to behave more like other clients? Would it make sense to extend the SASL interface in some way such that Dovecot could handle an EXTERNAL request from Postfix? Or should Postfix simply ignore SASL EXTERNAL based on the configured authentication mechanism order? Thanks, Matt [1] https://github.com/k9mail/k-9/ [2] https://github.com/k9mail/k-9/issues/793 -- Matt Horan matt(a)matthoran.com http://matthoran.com/

Moving to new password scheme
by ＠lbutlr 02 Feb '17

02 Feb '17

dovecot is setup on a system with MD5-CRYPT password scheme for all users, and I would like to update this to something that is secure, probably SSHA256-CRYPT, but I want to do this seamlessly without the users having to jump through any hoops. The users are in mySQL (managed via postfixadmin) and the mailbox record simply stores the hash in the password field. Users access their accounts though IMAP MUAs or Roundcube. How would I setup my system so that if a user logs in and still has a $1$ password (MD5-CRYPT) their password will be encoded to the new SHCEME and then the SQL row updated with the $5$ password instead? Something where they are redirected after authentication to a page that forces them to renter their password (or choose a new one) is acceptable. And, while I am here, is it worthwhile to set the -r flag to a large number (like something over 100,000 which sets takes about 0.25 seconds to do on my machine)? -- Apple broke AppleScripting signatures in Mail.app, so no random signatures.

quota-status returns quota_status_success when email would put user over quota
by Kristian Pedersen 02 Feb '17

02 Feb '17

Hi list, I am attempting to get quota-status service working, so I can deny email at the initial smtp dialog instead of generating bounces with lda. I can't seem to get quota-status to return quota_status_overquota, even when an email would put an account over quota. Quota in general works fine: Jan 22 06:39:23 mail dovecot: lda(xx(a)yy.dk): msgid=<25c5bdb20d58fc4f649f716a947613dc(a)zz.org>: save failed to INBOX: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) Jan 22 06:39:23 mail dovecot: lda(xx(a)yy.dk): msgid=<25c5bdb20d58fc4f649f716a947613dc(a)zz.org>: rejected: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) The system is a pretty standard debian 8 box running virtually on a kvm/ovirt cluster: root@mail:~# dpkg --list | grep dovec ii dovecot-core 1:2.2.13-12~deb8u1 amd64 secure POP3/IMAP server - core files ii dovecot-imapd 1:2.2.13-12~deb8u1 amd64 secure POP3/IMAP server - IMAP daemon ii dovecot-lmtpd 1:2.2.13-12~deb8u1 amd64 secure POP3/IMAP server - LMTP server ii dovecot-mysql 1:2.2.13-12~deb8u1 amd64 secure POP3/IMAP server - MySQL support ii dovecot-pop3d 1:2.2.13-12~deb8u1 amd64 secure POP3/IMAP server - POP3 daemon Mail storage is local XFS partitions as far as the dovecot server knows. Behind the scene its actually raw disk images on NFS shares from a SAN towards the kvm/ovirt cluster. I test by using nc towards the quota-status instance: root@mail:~# printf "recipient=kptest(a)asom-net.dk\nsize=1000000000\n\n" | nc -q1 localhost 12340 action=DUNNO User has 500MB quota: mysql> SELECT CONCAT('/data/vmail/',CONCAT(SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',-1),'/',SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',1))) AS home, 110 AS uid, 110 AS gid, CONCAT('*:storage=',mailquota,'M') AS quota_rule FROM virtual_users WHERE email='kptest(a)asom-net.dk'; +--------------------------------+-----+-----+----------------+ | home | uid | gid | quota_rule | +--------------------------------+-----+-----+----------------+ | /data/vmail/asom-net.dk/kptest | 110 | 110 | *:storage=500M | +--------------------------------+-----+-----+----------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) maildirsize seems ok: root@mail:~# cat /data/vmail/asom-net.dk/kptest/maildirsize 524288000S 685 1 690 1 Quota-status will return unknown user if that is the case: root@mail:~# printf "recipient=kptest2(a)asom-net.dk\nsize=1000000000\n\n" | nc -q1 localhost 12340 action=551 5.5.1 User not found Log file (with mail_debug = yes): Jan 12 16:52:21 mail dovecot: quota-status: Debug: auth input: kptest(a)asom-net.dk home=/data/vmail/asom-net.dk/kptest uid=110 gid=110 quota_rule=*:storage=500M Jan 12 16:52:21 mail dovecot: quota-status: Debug: Added userdb setting: plugin/quota_rule=*:storage=500M Jan 12 16:52:21 mail dovecot: quota-status(kptest(a)asom-net.dk): Debug: Effective uid=110, gid=110, home=/data/vmail/asom-net.dk/kptest Jan 12 16:52:21 mail dovecot: quota-status(kptest(a)asom-net.dk): Debug: Namespace inbox: type=private, prefix=, sep=, inbox=yes, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=maildir:/data/vmail/asom-net.dk/kptest/ Jan 12 16:52:21 mail dovecot: quota-status(kptest(a)asom-net.dk): Debug: maildir++: root=/data/vmail/asom-net.dk/kptest, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=/data/vmail/asom-net.dk/kptest, alt= dovecot -n: # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 8.6 ext4 auth_default_realm = vejen-net.dk auth_mechanisms = plain login auth_verbose = yes disable_plaintext_auth = no first_valid_uid = 110 log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_debug = yes mail_location = maildir:/data/vmail/%d/%n/ mail_privileged_group = mail namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/local-sql.conf driver = sql } plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=200M quota_status_nouser = 551 5.5.1 User not found quota_status_overquota = 552 5.2.2 Mailbox is full quota_status_success = DUNNO } protocols = imap pop3 service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-master { mode = 0600 user = vmail } user = root } service imap-login { client_limit = 1024 process_limit = 256 process_min_avail = 8 service_count = 0 vsz_limit = 512 M } service imap { process_limit = 10240 } service pop3-login { client_limit = 512 process_limit = 256 process_min_avail = 8 service_count = 0 vsz_limit = 512 M } service pop3 { process_limit = 10240 } service quota-status { client_limit = 1 executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/quota-status -p postfix inet_listener { port = 12340 } } ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/mail.asom-net.dk/fullchain.pem ssl_key = </etc/letsencrypt/live/mail.asom-net.dk/privkey.pem ssl_prefer_server_ciphers = yes userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/local-sql.conf driver = sql } protocol lda { auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mail_plugins = quota postmaster_address = postmaster(a)asom-net.dk } protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota imap_quota } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = quota pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } local-sql.conf: driver = mysql connect = host=xyz dbname=xyz user=xyz password=xyz default_pass_scheme = CRYPT password_query = SELECT email as user, password FROM virtual_users WHERE email='%u'; user_query = SELECT CONCAT('/data/vmail/',CONCAT(SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',-1),'/',SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',1))) AS home, 110 AS uid, 110 AS gid, CONCAT('*:storage=',mailquota,'M') AS quota_rule FROM virtual_users WHERE email='%u'; If I do a strace on the quota-status PID, it seems to do a stat on the directory and then give up?
