[Dovecot] Sieve vacation not working
by Phill Edwards 24 Feb '15

24 Feb '15

I've been trying all night to get vacation working in my .dovecot.sieve file. The way our email works is we have one account on dovecot which serves my mail and my wife's and we use procmail and sieve to put the emails in different folders depending on who it's for. I'm trying to set up a vacation reply on my wife's email address (aaaaaaaa@optus* below) so people can update to her new address. Here's my file with the email addresses masked: require ["fileinto", "vacation"]; if address :is "to" "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx(a)ozemail.com.au" { fileinto "Phill_OzEmail_Folder"; stop; } elsif address :is "to" "yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy(a)optusnet.com.au" { fileinto "Phill_Optus_Folder"; stop; } elsif address :matches "to" "aaaaaaaa@optus*" { vacation "Please update my email address to bbbbbbbbb(a)exemail.com.au"; fileinto "Sarah_Optus_Folder"; stop; } else { keep; stop; } The problem I'm having is that no auto-replies are sent. I removed .dovecot.lda-dupes and that didn't help; so then I touched it and now it's a 0 byte file and that didn't help. There is no dovecot.sieve.err file and I can't see anything in /var/log/dovecot.log which gives any message about why this wouldn't work. The emails to aaaaaaa@optus* get filed into the right folder so I know the matching is working. I've also tried a reject recipe and that worked fine, so I know that it can send an email if it chooses to. So it's a complete black box mystery as to why it just won't send a reply. Regards, Phill

Any idea?

Using Dovecot IMAPC to collect mail
by Иван Колосов 23 Feb '15

23 Feb '15

Hi list. I was looking at Dovecot's imapc feature for some time. I am aiming to use Dovecot with imapc as a kind of "store-and-forward" proxy. If I understand imapc correctly, there are two connections at work — one between the client and Dovecot and one between Dovecot and backend. When the client asks Dovecot for mail, Dovecot will retrieve mail from the backend and then send it to the client. So the question is, is it possible to configure Dovecot with imapc in such a way that it would store the mail it passes to the client? Should I use mail filter plugin to do this? I am also quite confused about authentication in this setting. Let's assume we use 'plain' authentication mechanism, then what happens? I guess that the client just sends Dovecot its credentials, and Dovecot tries to authenticate with them at the backed, responding to the client accordingly. Is this true? Thanks.

Dovecot Director Issue/Bug when host=""
by Julian De Marchi 20 Feb '15

20 Feb '15

heya-- Been playing with dovecot today as I was learning about the features I haven't used yet like the director/proxy stuff. I setup a basic dovecot stack today which is 1 director and 1 IMAP dovecot server behind it. I have one user setup in MySQL and when I first changed from proxy mode to director mode I left the host column populated with the IMAP server. Once I confirmed this was working I then changed host to "" not NULL. When I then preformed my next check I got these errors(no details omitted as this is a test system): Feb 20 14:57:19 smtp-test dovecot: auth-worker(15423): Debug: sql(email3(a)example.com,10.107.0.8): query: SELECT email as user, password, host, 'Y' AS proxy_maybe, 'user' AS master, 'password' AS pass, 'any-cert' AS 'ssl' FROM virtual_users WHERE email='email3(a)example.com'; Feb 20 14:57:19 smtp-test dovecot: auth: Error: proxy(email3(a)example.com,10.107.0.8,<Zz0b430PigAKawAI>): DNS lookup for failed: Invalid input from dns-client Feb 20 14:57:19 smtp-test dovecot: auth: Error: close((null)) failed: Bad file descriptor When I changed the host data from "" to NULL all worked as expected. So the question is: is this a bug with the error output? It was kind of hard for me to diagnose at first without leaning on support in the freenode channel. This is very repeatable as it is a proper error, you can't resolve "". --julian

Xi autobuilds restored
by Stephan Bosch 19 Feb '15

19 Feb '15

Hi, Xi had problems for more than a month now. I finally managed to access it yesterday, but it was a bit more broken than I anticipated. I had to re-install the whole system. It should now work as before. It is now Debian stable/amd64, so that is now also the master release, which is always built first. Regards, Stephan.

Re: lazy_expunge + mdbox
by fernando.figaro＠uol.com.br 19 Feb '15

19 Feb '15

It appears to me that this issue is related to how lazy_expunge and last_instance work with mdbox - that is different from maildir. With maildir, the message is moved to the expunged namespace only when the last copy is removed (example: from trash folder). With mdbox, first time when you move message from one folder to another, dovecot creates a copy in the expunge namespace. When you delete messages or expunge them from Trash folder (example, nightly 'doveadm expunge' cronjob) they are simply deleted because they already have copies at expunged namespace. @Timo, is that correct ? This is what I could understand from my tests. Thanks, Fernando De: fernando.figaro(a)uol.com.br Enviada: Quarta-feira, 4 de Fevereiro de 2015 23:15 Para: dovecot(a)dovecot.org Assunto: lazy_expunge + mdbox Hi, I'm studying an issue related to mdbox and lazy_expunge. If it is active in the imap configuration, when you delete a message (copy to new folder + expunge old folder), a copy is also sent to the expunge namespace. I realize that is something related to mdbox and lazy_expunge_only_last_instance and found almost no references except this one (http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/file/24d6708cea76/TODO) lazy_expunge_only_last_instance=yes + mdbox doesn't work, because refcounts don't update immediately One other suggestion I found was to disable 'move' capability. Does anyone has other news regarding this issue ? Thanks, Fernando

doveadm sync out of memory
by Casey Stone 18 Feb '15

18 Feb '15

Hello: I've been looking forward to getting my mail server up to Dovecot 2.2+ to be able to use the sync mechanism. I run my own mail server just for myself, with a few different accounts, and want to keep a master and backup server in sync. I'm running the Ubuntu server 14.04.1 mail stack which features Dovecot 2.2.9 (and Postfix). My setup is to use system users (userdb passwd / passdb pam) with ~/Maildir. I'll post full sanitized output of dovecot -n if it seems necessary. I have not enabled any plugins (do I need the replicator plugin active?) I have in my conf a doveadm_password defined. Anyway, after setting up an ssl listener on the main machine and after considerable struggles with SSL, I was able to run doveadm sync from the backup server successfully for a small mailbox (around 78 MB) with this command: doveadm sync -R tcps:mainserver.example.com:12345 Since I run this command as the system user on the backup server (same system users as main server) it 'just works' for the correct single user with no further options required. My plan is to run a daily cron job to sync once daily for each user. The problem is when I try to sync a larger mailbox, say 1 GB, dsync-server on the remote (master) machine throws fatal error 83 Out of Memory. I already raised vsz_limit to 512 MB. Problems probably arise with mailboxes around 200 MB though I haven't tested specifically. So my question is, is this expected and I will need to give my VM much more memory to be able to use dovecot sync, or do I have something set wrong, or is it a bug? Thanks for your help.
