RE: Testin new installation

Look at /etc/hosts ::1 is the ipv6 version of localhost. Sent from Samsung tablet -------- Original message -------- From Steve Matzura <number6(a)noisynotes.com> Date: 06/13/2015 6:00 AM (GMT-06:00) To dovecot <dovecot(a)dovecot.org> Subject Testin new installation The first place I went to for test advice and planning recommendations was http://wiki2.dovecot.org/TestInstallation - The very first test failed. Doc says: Next check that Dovecot is listening for connections: # telnet localhost 143 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. If you got "connection refused", make sure that Dovecot is configured to serve the imap protocol and listening on the expected interfaces/addresses. The simplest way to do that would be using doveconf(1): # doveconf protocols listen protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve listen = *, :: If the protocols setting shouldn't contain imap so add it. Also make sure, that relevant !include or !try_include configuration lines are not commented. *** End doc extract *** All of the above specified settings are correct. Yet, when I telnet localhost 143, I get: Trying ::1... # this is certainly suspect Escape character is '^['. Connection closed by foreign host.

LDA versus LMTP
by Steve Matzura 13 Jun '15

13 Jun '15

My system has a great big four users. The Dovecot wiki says LMTP is more efficient, and someone on IRC told me I'd need it if I were ever to use sieve, which at this time I have no intention of doing. Should I stick with LDA, or just implement LMTP so I'm ready if ever I need it in the future? The bottom line is, it's unclear from the wiki how to explicitly specify use of one or the other, so that's my question.

Non-Existent Log File
by Steve Matzura 13 Jun '15

13 Jun '15

My /var/log/maillog was getting pretty big because of lots of testing and re-configuring I've been doing lately with both Dovecot and Postfix. I figured just remove /var/log/maillog and it would be re-created. It wasn't--not by Dovecot, not by Postfix. I had to manually create a new one, put one character in it, save it, properly secure it with chmod, and then Dovecot (and postfix) messages got written to it. This can't possibly be the proper procedure to clear maillog messages ... can it?

Error when starting Dovecot
by Steve Matzura 13 Jun '15

13 Jun '15

After applying some changes to 10-master.conf as detailed at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixDovecotLMTP I receive the following when trying to start: doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf line 49: Expecting '{' I'm trying to enable LMTP. The instructions say: Socket configuration The actual socket is configured in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf. The LMTP service can be bound to both INET or Unix sockets. In this example a Unix socket is placed inside the Postfix spool with appropriate permissions set: service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } } I copied this block and placed it in my copy of 10-master.conf. Line 49 is the first line of this block, and there's clearly a left-brace there. The braces match, too. Thoughts?

Imap Notify
by Tony Morehen 12 Jun '15

12 Jun '15

I'm trying to enable Imap Notify in Dovecot 2.2.13. I know that's a bit out of date, but that's what's provided with openSuSe 13.2. The first thing I did was add mailbox_list_index=yes to /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf. Both doveadm -n and dovecot -n show the change. I then used doveadm reload to force dovecot to reread its config file. Despite this, NOTIFY did not show up it Dovecot's capabilities: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. I then did a systemctl restart dovecot.service and still no luck: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. I also have noticed that the Maildirs of my various accounts include a dovecot.list.index file with a current timestamp, but no dovecot.list.index. So, where do I go for here? The output of doveadm -n: # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.16.7-21-desktop x86_64 openSUSE 13.2 (x86_64) disable_plaintext_auth = no log_path = /var/log/dovecot/dovecot.log mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_max_userip_connections = 50 mailbox_list_index = yes 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 ihave passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd.dovecot driver = passwd-file } postmaster_address = Tony@localhost protocols = imap lmtp service auth { unix_listener auth-master { group = mailgrp mode = 0660 user = mailuser } } service lmtp { executable = lmtp -L inet_listener lmtp { address = 127.0.0.1 port = 2525 } user = mailuser } ssl = no userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd.dovecot driver = passwd-file } protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = tb-extra-mailbox-sep } protocol pop3 { mail_plugin_dir = /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/pop3 } protocol lda { log_path = /var/log/dovecot/deliver.log mail_plugin_dir = /usr/lib64/dovecot/modules mail_plugins = sieve } protocol lmtp { log_path = /var/log/dovecot/deliver.log mail_plugin_dir = /usr/lib64/dovecot/modules mail_plugins = sieve }

1.0.15 gone, can't start version 2
by Steve Matzura 12 Jun '15

12 Jun '15

On advice/recommendation received on this list, I removed version 1.0.15 with: rm -rf /usr/local/dovecot However, now that I have version 2 properly installed, configured, and ready to start testing with Postfix, it appears the old version is still in /usr/local/sbin, /usr/local/include, /usr/local/libexec, /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/shared/doc. Thinking that anything in /usr/local is something that was installed s a result of having built it from source (which 1.0.15 definitely was), should these also be removed?

That should give you a good idea about what's wrong with your setup. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=dovecot+ssl+setup# B
