doveadm quota recalc problem for domain
by Samuel 06 Sep '15

06 Sep '15

Hello, I've set up user quota and domain quota for dict SQL and all seems OK. New mail for user increase the user quota and the domain quota. Deleting email count down user quota and domain quota. But in case of SQL failure, I'm trying to rebuild the user quota and domain quota with doveadm quota recalc. The problem is that the command : 'doveadm quota recalc -u foo@bar' sets the domain quota only with user foo@bar even when I try a domain quota recalc : doveadm quota recalc -A or doveadm quota recalc -u *@bar (only one user is taken in account for the domain quota and not all the user). The domain SQL database is broken with value of only one user for the whole domain quota. So how to achieve rebuild domain quota correctly with doveadm ? Thanks a lot. Samuel.

Mailbox can't be created
by Paulo Matos 06 Sep '15

06 Sep '15

Hi, I have setup postfix master.cf to use dovecot-lda to deliver (using -m) all messages to PreInbox: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -a ${recipient} -d ${user}@${nexthop} -m PreINBOX And enabled lda_mailbox_autocreate.

Considerations for a not so simple set-up ...
by Lars Hanke 05 Sep '15

05 Sep '15

I want to set up a new IMAP server with Dovecot, so far I've been running Cyrus. I'm running dovecot on Debian Jessie. The general idea of the system would be: 1) Virtual users, i.e. login users are disjoint from any mail accounts. 2) Real-Users authenticate using their kerberos tickets. 3) There is a n-to-n mapping of real to virtual users. 4) Maildirs shall be stored on glusterfs. 5) Fallback passwords for cloud access Concerning 1) and 2) I keep reading that this is possible, but I could not find any concise and current description. I'd welcome pointers to howtos. Concerning 3) this should be a matter of ACL, e.g. a single real user (kerberos pricipal) may have several mail-boxes (virtual users), and groups of real users may share the same mail-box. I have a faint idea, how this could be done in Cyrus (but never did that), but I read that these features should exist in Dovecot as well. But I'm completely lost to even figure out a starting point. I appreciate any keywords for further reading. Concerning 4) I read that there are some issues using NFS. Are there any caveats when using gluster? Concerning 5) Users logging in from outside may not have TGT on their notebooks, which by design should run as stand-alone. They should nevertheless be able to access their mail. I currently think of another set of real users, but anything less messy is welcome. Did someone try something similar, already? Thanks for your help, - lars.

'doveadm expunge' with -A and userdb { driver = passwd }
by Grant 05 Sep '15

05 Sep '15

I'm expunging mail in my crontab like this: doveadm search -u user1 mailbox INBOX.Trash savedbefore 30d doveadm search -u user2 mailbox INBOX.Trash savedbefore 30d doveadm search -u user3 mailbox INBOX.Trash savedbefore 30d ... I'd rather do this: doveadm search -A mailbox INBOX.Trash savedbefore 30d but I'm told not to: "If the -A option is present, the command will be performed for all users. Using this option in combination with system users from userdb { driver = passwd } is not recommended, because it contains also users with a lower UID than the one configured with the first_valid_uid setting." I'm using userdb { driver = passwd-file } but I'm guessing that's the same thing. Am I understanding this correctly? - Grant

apple mail fails to connect intermittently
by Eric Smith 04 Sep '15

04 Sep '15

Hi (New to dovecot) I am experiencing intermittent connection failures with both apple mail and ios mail. No specific errors and I cannot find relevant information on the mac logs or on my server. It spontaneously corrects. restarting dovecot - no dice It just happened now (again), this time there might have been a reason, I just dovecot-lda'd some large mailboxes from mbox to Maildir. But as I said, it spontaneously corrects, so is downloading now. While this connection error is occurring, then I can connect to dovecot via a remote mutt session, via web imap client and via outlook. Is this a known issue? FWIW: % doveconf -n # 2.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.19.0-26-generic i686 Ubuntu 15.04 lda_mailbox_autocreate = yes lda_mailbox_autosubscribe = yes 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 } mailbox virtual/All { special_use = \All } prefix = } passdb { driver = pam } postmaster_address = postmaster(a)biovolt.nl protocols = " imap lmtp" ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem userdb { driver = passwd } protocol lda { info_log_path = /tmp/dovecot-deliver.log log_path = /tmp/dovecot-deliver-errors.log } Thanks Eric

Reviving an old thread: "requiring client certificates for external connections"
by Robert Giles 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

Hi folks - reviving an old thread from 2010: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2010-December/055837.html We're basically looking to do the same thing: require client certificates for external connections, while preserving certificate-less username/password authentication for internal connections. Any tips on the best way to accomplish this? 'ssl_verify_client_cert = yes' can go within a local {} block, but it doesn't seem to force the client to submit a certificate. Thanks in advance - Robert Giles

new server
by Franc 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

I am going to build a new box (2-3.000 users, 4-500 domains name (50-100 real, remaining used as redirect on the main (.it,.eu,.com,...)) . Is there any how-to or similar to follow for build an updated system? (My current boxes are based on CentoOS 6.x using included Dovecot + PostFix .rpms) I am thinking to CentOS 7.x + Dovecot + PostFix + RoundCube + Squirrel + procmail with unix users and virtual users. But I admit that systemd isn't still my best friend ... :-) In CentOS 7.x there is a default dovecot-2.2.10. Is it enough Ok or better use different rpms source? Any hints is welcomed :-) Thanks, F.

sieve filtering utf 8 strings
by Sergey Schwartz 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

Guys, I'm completely stuck, so asking for advice. My user has a sieve script which checks message header if it contains words in russian like 'Лист бронирования отправлен'. Pritty simple script # rule:[Отправлено] if allof (header :contains "subject" "LDS (robot): Лист бронирования отправлен", header :contains "from" "noreply(a)bgoperator.com") { fileinto "Отправлено"; } I don't have errors compiling the script or executing it via LMTP, but it doesn't work. Normally user receives messages from robot with subject encoded as quoted-printable Subject: =?UTF-8?Q?LDS_(robot):_=D0=9B=D0=B8=D1=81=D1=82?= =?UTF-8?Q?_=D0=B1=D1=80=D0=BE=D0=BD=D0=B8=D1=80=D0=BE=D0=B2=D0=B0=D0=BD?= =?UTF-8?Q?=D0=B8=D1=8F__=D0=BE=D1=82=D0=BF=D1=80=D0=B0=D0=B2=D0=BB=D0=B5?= When I send a test message via Thunderbird with required words - sieve works fine and subject is encoded in base64 Subject: =?UTF-8?B?0JvQuNGB0YIg0LHRgNC+0L3QuNGA0L7QstCw0L3QuNGPINC+0YLQv9GA?= =?UTF-8?B?0LDQstC70LXQvQ==?= It is the same text, but encodind is different - base 64 works fine and quoted-printable does not. Is it possible to have both supported for sieve ? -- Best regards, Sergey Schwartz Senior System Administrator Biblio Globus Tour Operator www.bgoperator.ru T: +7 495 5042500 ext 1532 E: sergey.schwartz(a)bgoperator.com
