config best practice
by Egbert 20 Jun '14

20 Jun '14

Hi! We will soon start upgrading our Ubuntu mail server (running 2.0.19) from 12.04.1 LTSto 14.04 LTS. The dovecot config is still pretty much in 1.x style; one flat file called dovecot.conf. I can easily switch to a dovecot.conf with the "!include" lines and rename my flat config file to local.conf. I've tested that and it works fine. I could also try to move all lines in local.conf to the different XX-.conf files in the conf.d subdir. What is wise and best practice? Should one edit the files in conf.d? Or will the files in conf.d be overwritten on an update of dovecot? Then I'll better stick to the way of working with the dovecot.conf with the !includes and local.conf and assume that all files in conf.d are default settings. TNX for any advise!

Sis attachment deduplication
by Laeeth Isharc 20 Jun '14

20 Jun '14

Hi. Two questions: 1. Is this now reasonably stable for large mailboxes (c 2mm messages)? 2. Will this leave the filename in the message body unchanged? So for example if I have the same attachment called proposalfromvendor.pdf and proposaltoclient.pdf in two different emails, will the original names be kept ? Or will it replace the filename with some kind of numeric hash ? Many thanks. Laeeth Sent from my iPad

IMAP Chunking Thunderbird
by MrLINK 20 Jun '14

20 Jun '14

Hi, using dovecot-2.0.9-7.el6.x86_64 on CentOS release 6.5 (Final) I have an issue with thunderbird imap chunking. Some attachments are corrupted, because Thunderbird is just storing the first chunk. Since there are some workarounds by editing the "mail.imap.fetch_by_chunks" via about:config this is not the best choice for me because every client has to be edited. Is there a way to set a central value on the dovecot server (i.e disable chunking since this is not a client behaviour only)? Thanks in advance!

Suggestion: Split login_trusted_networks
by Peter Mogensen 20 Jun '14

20 Jun '14

Hi, It seems the use of login_trusted_networks is overloaded. Example: * It's used for indicating which hosts you trust to provide XCLIENT remote IP's. * It's used for indicating from which hosts you trust logins enough to disable auth penalty. (like in a webmail) However... trustwise, this is trusting two different entities. The first case you put trust in the host. In the second case, you actually put trust in the user which uses the webmail (unless of course the webmail it self implements auth-penalties). So you can't have one set of hosts which you trust for XCLIENT and another set of hosts you trust for not being the origin of brute force attacks. /Peter

Replication and namespaces
by Laeeth Isharc 19 Jun '14

19 Jun '14

Hi. Replication in dovecot is running into trouble as it is trying to sync virtual namespaces and does not like it. dsync parameters With v2.2.9+ you can configure what parameters replicator uses for the doveadm sync command: replication_dsync_parameters = -d -N -l 30 -U The -f and -s parameters are added automatically when needed. Usually the only change you may want to do is replace -N (= sync all namespaces) with -n <namespace> or maybe just add -x <exclude> parameter(s). ........ What is the description of namespace that follows -n or -x? -x virtual Or -x 0/ Where 0/ is the prefix for my virtual namespace Does not seem to stop it trying to sync the virtual namespace... What should I be doing instead? Do I need to use all the parameters above? Or can I just use the -x ? Sent from my iPa

dsync initial replication failing
by Cassidy Larson 19 Jun '14

19 Jun '14

Trying to get my new storage server synced up using dsync replication with SSH. Followed the wiki and everything works great for the initial sync, for about 4 hours, then I get some errors and it stops replicating: dsync-local(user(a)host.com): Warning: Failed to do incremental sync for mailbox INBOX, retry with a full sync dsync-local(user(a)host.com): Error: Remote command returned error 75: ssh -lusername <remote_ip> doveadm dsync-server -uuser(a)host.com -U It happened around 2am. I restarted the new server dovecot process and it started to copy back up again, and then happened about four hours later. I have about 10,000 accounts, and it chugs through the list to replicate pretty well (~300Mbps), so I know it's working. Just not sure why it's failing after it's working so great. Running 2.2.13 on both on FreeBSD. Both show this: # doveadm replicator status Queued 'sync' requests 0 Queued 'high' requests 0 Queued 'low' requests 0 Queued 'failed' requests 0 Queued 'full resync' requests 5645 Waiting 'failed' requests 0 Total number of known users 9957 Any ideas? Suggestions? Thanks, Cassidy

I think you will hear from proponents of both styles. I would say use whatever works best for you. I personally use one dovecot.conf without any includes because I like having all my configs in one place. Less editing mutiple files, and less forgetting some configuration squirreled away in some conf.d file. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>
