[Dovecot] stripping attachments
by Frank Cusack 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

there is a windows tool that strips attachments from emails on the server. i think it works for exchange. is there a tool or a way to do this for imap? i don't mean a mail filter that would strip them before the user sees them, i mean that the user could actively cooperate to reduce mail storage space, yet keep the original email on the server sans attachment.

[Dovecot] dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.3 compile error
by El Bundy 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

Hi, when I try to compile dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.3 on my NAS I get the error below and I have no idea why and who to fix this. I have a Qnap TS239pro NAS with a Intel Atom CPU running Linux. I installed and configured the ipkg dovecot packet (1.2.beta1). Getting mails via fetchmail and send them with deliver to the IMAP. Not I want to include sieve to filter mails as this is not part of the packet I need to compile this by my own. I installed all needed packets and download dovecot-1.2.beta1 and dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.3. I do configure and make for dovecot and ./configure --with-dovecot=../dovecot-1.2.beta1 and make for dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.3. All run without any problem till the error below.

[Dovecot] shared namespace problem
by Patrick Kaiser 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

Hi List, I've got a problem, setting up shared namespaces. I am trying to setup a Mailbox (Maildir) which is accessible for some users. (For example mailbox "sales" and only sales representive have access to it) Mailboxes can be found under /var/vmail/<username>, whereas <username> looks like foo.bar or peter.griffin ;) Now, if I connect via telnet, loggin in as foo.bar and run a03 SETACL foobar peter.griffin lwrxk everything seems fine. Under /var/vmail/foo.bar is a acl-file dovecot-acl-list Under /var/vmail/foo.bar/.foobar is a acl-file dovecot-acl The contents looks ok. Also there is a generated file /var/vmail/shared-mailboxes.db. But if i now loggin in as peter.griffin and setup command a03 LIST "" "*" or a03 LIST "" "#shared" I can not find any shared mailbox. Above you can find my actual configuration. I've tried several versions of location: under shared namespace, but without success. Hope someone has a clue and point me into the right direction.

[Dovecot] Dovecot Sieve: Vacation Recipient
by Lukas Kolbe 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

Hi! I tried to use the sieve vacation plugin, but we're facing a little problem: our user's addresses are <uid>@<domain>, and if they want to use imap and sieve, they can have a forward to <uid>@imap.<domain>. The return-path, and hence the address the vacation message is sent to, is then <uid>@<domain> and not the original sender of the message. Is there any way to circumvent this? Sending a vacation back to oneself doesn't really make sense here :) Oh, and happy new year and thank you all for this great piece of software! -- Lukas

Well, there might be scenarios, when a local user other than root may sniff the connection on localhost, but I think you have no such one. So to encrypt a connection from localhost to localhost is a waste of ressources. In case of Dovecot you'll need one extra file descriptior (and depending on your settings one extra process as well), plus the CPU time to actually do the encryption. > Yeah.

The webmail-frontend _is_ your client in the view of Dovecot. But since the cert is in /etc/ssl/certs, it should work, but if you validate the cert, the webmail may bark, because you access the SSL-cert with the CN "webmail.domain.gr" by another name "localhost". This is a sign of a man-in-the-middle attack, actually. BTW: Do your SSL IMAP/POP clients also use the name "webmail.domain.gr"? Otherwise they will get a warning as well, maybe each time they connect.

[Dovecot] First time Dovecot user, really impressed so far. What is best IMAP enabled webmail package to go with Dovecot?
by Stan Hoeppner 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

Greetings everyone, I'm new to the list as of today. I just installed Dovecot a couple of days ago for the first time, Debian Lenny Dovecot v1.0.15-2.3. So far I'm pretty impressed. I'm using mbox format with Dovecot auto-deciding to place mail in user home directories, which is great. It works very well with the Win32 Thunderbird 3 client over a small basic 100FDX switched net. I've got one list mail folder with 10,600 messages and server side body searching that folder via T-Bird is very quick, on the order of 5 seconds. It would probably be quicker if Dovecot threaded the search to use both CPUs, but pegging just the one CPU the search is still very darn quick. And this is on a dual P2-550 class machine with only 384MB RAM and a single 500GB 7200RPM SATA drive. I'd like to install a webmail package on the same host. I used Squirrelmail for this purpose many years ago and I wasn't wholly impressed with the user interface. I'm also not impressed by the fact that I regularly receive spam from compromised Squirrelmail hosts/accounts. I really like the look/feel of the Scalix Web Access AJAX based interface, but I can't/won't use Scalix as it's not supported on Debian, it has more features than I need, and the system requirements are a bit steep. So, what's the best FOSS IMAP enabled web mail front end with a modern look/feel? I'd like to run it on lighttpd, which I'm already using, not apache. Thanks in advance for any advice. My apologies if my first post is a little OT, but I figured there's probably no better place to ask about the best webmail front end for Dovecot than here. -- Stan

Does Dovecot Sieve plug-in support Dovecot 2.0? We have a few servers running Dovecot 2.0 beta1, but the Dovecot Sieve plug-in (version 0.1.4) won't compile against it. Is this on the Sieve TODO list? If so, when do you see it will happen? Thanks Wenjie

[Dovecot] Dovecot not delivering mail.
by Anthony Nedland 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

I get no errors when attempting to send or receive. However, my messages aren't showing up in the mailboxes. I am sending between users on the same server. This is my dovecot -n output ------------------------------------------------ # 1.1.11: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf Error: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 1076: Unknown section type (section changed in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf at line 1038) Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf ----------------------------------------------- I was under the impression that this would be an irrelevant message, as my actual dovecot configuration file is dovecot-postfix.conf rather than dovecot.conf. The logging shows login/logout and no errors. Thanks.

[Dovecot] auth, partially resolved
by Spyros Tsiolis 07 Jan '10

07 Jan '10

Hello people, After a lot of wading through the dovecot documentation (which btw, is excellent !, everything lies under "dovecot/doc/wiki"), I managed to authenticate a couple of accounts. For starters, I want dovecot to work as an imap/imaps box and nothing else. So , I went ahead and created a "passwd" file with two users. One user being my name (spyros) and plaintext password and the other user "postmaster" with encrypted password ("/etc/dovecot/passwd" shown) : --- spyros@webmail.domain.gr:{PLAIN}plainpassword postmaster@webmail.domain.gr:{SSHA}SSHAPassword --- Now, if I telnet to port 143 with both users, the system comes back with the following : --- [root@webmail dovecot]# 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 . login spyros(a)webmail.domain.gr password . OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH] Logged in --- As I said, it allows login on port 143 for both users. So, the same for "postmaster". Now for port 993 : --- [root@webmail dovecot]# openssl s_client -connect webmail.domain.gr:993 [lots of SSL-related certificate information] * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready . login spyros(a)webmail.domain.gr password . OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH] Logged in --- Again, the same for user "postmaster". I don't paste. So, everything is fine. However, I have an issue with the (?!) issued certificate. If I check the dovecot logs I find nothing. If on the other hand, I do the same check on the Horde application, It comes back with the following : --- * Trying protocol imap/notls, Port 143: SUCCESS - INBOX has 0 messages (0 new 0 recent) * Trying protocol imap/ssl, Port 993: ERROR - The server returned the following error message: SECURITY PROBLEM: insecure server advertised AUTH=PLAIN[SERVERBUG] Internal error occurred.

However, I would like an opinion before I go ahead and bug them with this. Certificate was created with "dovecot/doc/mkcert.sh" and the relevant certificate file (can't recall its name at the moment). Any help would be appreciated. On the other hand, If I went too far with this I apologize and I'll try to find another way to resolve this. Thank you people, s.

Possibly a webmail service and a desktop imap client. It may be that both machines are trying to manipulate the uidlist at the same time, causing who knows that kind of corruption. This could maybe explain some of the coredumps im seeing in 1.2.7? This is on Debian/Lenny, using NFS spool and NFS control/indexes. Timo, you asked in private mail a few days ago if we're sure the filenames are forever unique. Im sure. I double checked it in the source code. The above filenames are timestamp_hostname.pid, and that seems pretty unique right? Regards, Cor

Note this is *not* the same issue as: - maildir: v1.2.7 and v1.2.8 caused assert-crashes in maildir_uidlist_records_drop_expunges() I applied those patches to my 1.2.8 installation before 1.2.9 was released and that immediately fixed the expunge crash, but the array_delete bug is still there. dovecot -n --------------- bash-3.2# /usr/sbin/dovecot -n # 1.2.8: /etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5 x86_64 CentOS release 5.4 (Final) listen: * ssl_cert_file: /rci/local/certs/imapd-pop3d.pem ssl_key_file: /rci/local/certs/imapd-pop3d.pem disable_plaintext_auth: yes login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login login_max_processes_count: 2048 max_mail_processes: 2048 first_valid_uid: 100 mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/rci/nqu%h/dovecot:CONTROL=/rci/nqu%h/dovecot mmap_disable: yes mail_nfs_storage: yes mail_nfs_index: yes mail_drop_priv_before_exec: yes mail_executable(default): /rci/local/etc/convert-courier-imap.sh mail_executable(imap): /rci/local/etc/convert-courier-imap.sh mail_executable(pop3): /rci/local/etc/convert-courier-pop.sh mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib64/dovecot/pop3 pop3_uidl_format(default): %08Xu%08Xv pop3_uidl_format(imap): %08Xu%08Xv pop3_uidl_format(pop3): UID%u-%v namespace: type: private separator: . prefix: INBOX. inbox: yes list: yes subscriptions: yes auth default: passdb: driver: pam args: dovecot userdb: driver: passwd -- ================================ David Halik System Administrator OIT-CSS Rutgers University dhalik(a)jla.rutgers.edu ================================

That would of course need a dict-ldap backend implemented, but it would be a generic way to solve this, if its API is good enough. > After another day of looking into this, I believe that there are two concerns to be addressed: 1. dovecot implementation: how dovecot/pigeonhole provides access to these external sources in a sane way. I do like the dict interface for this, which could keep LDAP url's (or SQL queries, etc) out of sieve scripts, and into nicely compartementalized configuration files. Being very ldap focussed at my site, I hadn't looked at dict before today. 2. sieve language: an extension which would allow scripts to get information from an external source. I'm asking the draft-ietf-sieve-external-lists authors a few questions about this. The end result would be something like what follows: Dovecot implementation (proposed): ------------------------------------- <dovecot.conf> dict { dict_sieve = ldap:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sieve-ldap.conf } plugin { # TODO: proxy this dict? sieve_extsrc = dict } </dovecot.conf> then I'm not sure how you specify multiple hosts with the dict-sql format, so I'm using the postfix convention. there's probably a better way for dovecot. <dovecot-sieve-ldap.conf> map { name = responder_mode server_host = ldap://server1.mycorp.com, ldap://server2.mycorp.com search_base = o=mailstuff query_filter = (&(objectclass=mailschema)(uid=%u)) result_attribute = responder_mode result_scope = sub bind = no version = 3 } map { name = responder_text server_host = ldap://server1.mycorp.com, ldap://server2.mycorp.com search_base = o=mailstuff query_filter = (&(objectclass=mailschema)(uid=%u)) result_attribute = responder_text result_scope = sub bind = no version = 3 } map { name = forward_keep server_host = ldap://server1.mycorp.com, ldap://server2.mycorp.com search_base = o=mailstuff query_filter = (&(objectclass=mailschema)(uid=%u)) result_attribute = mailForwardKeep result_scope = sub bind = no version = 3 } map { # in this case we can have many responses name = forward_addresses server_host = ldap://server1.mycorp.com, ldap://server2.mycorp.com search_base = o=mailstuff query_filter = (&(objectclass=mailschema)(uid=%u)) result_attribute = mailForwardAddress result_scope = sub bind = no version = 3 } </dovecot-sieve-ldap.conf> Sieve language: --------------------- then with proposed new functions of the sieve language (all names plucked out of my head 2hrs ago, would have to think about the semantics some more): 1. a “:list” argument that expects a string-list 2. a “:extsrc” argument that expects an <ext-name: string> and returns a string-list 3. a “:extsrc1” argument that expects an <ext-name: string> and returns a string 4. a new test that uses information that is not in the message, say “arbitrary [comparator] string string” (syntax needs work) sample uses in scripts are then: 1. redirect to a mailing list sourced from ldap (or wheverver): # mailForwardAddress attribute can be present >=0 times redirect :list :extsrc “dict:forward_addresses” 2. decide whether to keep or discard forwarded messages (eg: after the above rule) # mailForwardKeep attribute should only be present once, if at all if arbitrary :is :extsrc1 “dict:forward_keep” “TRUE” { keep; } 3. decide vacation action and text based in information in an ldap dir: # mailResponderMode & mailResponderText attrs should only be present once, if at all if arbitrary :is :extsrc1 “dict:responder_mode” “alwaysreply” { vacation :days 1 :extsrc1 “dict:responder_text"; } if arbitrary :is :extsrc1 “dict:responder_mode” “holiday” { vacation :days 30 :extsrc1 “dict:responder_text”; } ... where the "dict:mapname" syntax would be dovecot implementation specific. could also support the URL & TAG-URI schemes as proposed by draft-ietf-sieve-external-lists. This would allow query URLs as a more general case, using whatever's configured in /etc/ldap/ldap.conf (or whatever the platform's ldap client lib uses). Doing this does raise some resource consumption concerns, hence there should probably be a means of restricting external queries to global scripts only (or sieve_before, sieve_after), and a means of providing timeout values, etc. eg: if arbitrary :is :extsrc1 “ldap:///o=myorg?mailForwardKeep” “TRUE” { keep; } I'll keep on thinking about the design, staring intently at the dovecot sources and http://wiki.dovecot.org/Design for another couple days before attempting to write some code to test this. Feedback on the design of both the sieve language extension, & dovecot interface very appreciated. Cheers, -Martin Foster

[Dovecot] Failed IMAP Login Attempts in Logs
by Carlos Williams 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

I had a user telling me that they can't login to the Postfix email server via Webmail (RoundCube) and I decided to see if I could locate this issue in the logs and understand if the user was simply using a wrong password credential and or something more serious. More than likely the person is just using a wrong password but in search of this on my logs, I don't understand why Dovecot doesn't log failed login attempts. When I attempted to login with a wrong password, I show the following in my logs: [root@mail log]# cat /var/log/maillog | grep 'Jan 5' | grep -i 'dovecot' | grep -i 'carlos' Jan 5 11:00:13 mail dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: user=<carlos>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:192.168.0.10, lip=::ffff:192.168.0.10 Is there a log level or something I am not searching for that will allow me to see failed or invalid logins for Dovecot (IMAP)? Thanks!

[Dovecot] Sorting in IMAP list command?
by Ronald Johnson 06 Jan '10

06 Jan '10

Hi All, I'm running Dovecot 1.2.9 and have noticed the IMAP list command does not appear to send a sorted list of folders with list command. For example on our Cyrus server I get a sorted list of folders (with INBOX listed first): 2 list "" "*" * LIST (\Noinferiors) "/" "INBOX" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "CalProject" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "Deleted Messages" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "Drafts" ... while on our Dovecot server I get seemingly random listing: 2 list "" "*" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "lsf" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "mrg" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "studiosysadmins" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "Deleted Messages" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "TriTeam" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "systemupdates" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "bb" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "nagios" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "server" ... Is this intentional, or have I done something wrong? I didn't see any option in the dovecot.conf to set the behavior of the list output.

[Dovecot] Dovecot quota not working
by Bruno Guimarães Sousa 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

Hi everyone, I'm trying to make quota to work in dovecot 1.0.rc15 in a Debian machine. Setting the limit to 1GB and starting to fill up the mailbox and nothing stopped me. It just kept growing and nothing happened. Restarted the service and nothing. I had already exceeded the 1 GB limit and nothing happens, the mailbox still goes bigger and bigger... The *"check_quota"* plugin for squirrelmail shows "0.0% of 1.0GB" in my browser. 1GB is exactly what it is defined in dovecot.conf by maildir. Is it necessary to configure something in postfix?

[Dovecot] imap default separator ignored?
by Harald Dunkel 03 Jan '10

03 Jan '10

Hi folks, I have configured the imap folder separator to '/' (see below). AFAIU the separator character does not affect the internal folder representation managed by Dovecot, but just the communication between client and imap server. Question is: What is supposed to happen if I try to create a folder named "a.b" in this configuration? Since '.' is not a separator character anymore, and since the client doesn't know anything about the internals of Dovecot, I do not see why Dovecot complains about an invalid character?

[Dovecot] Problems getting the antispam-plugin to work
by Malte Schirmacher 03 Jan '10

03 Jan '10

Hi List, i'm running the current debian lenny dovecot-version (dpkg says it's 1.0.15-2.3+lenny1) and i'm trying to get the antispam-plugin ('1.2+20090702-1~bpo50+3') to work. Unfortunately dovecot always says "antispam plugin not configured" moving spam into the spam-folder. My config: protocol imap { mail_plugins = antispam } plugin { antispam_signature = X-DSPAM-Signature antispam_signature_missing = error antispam_trash = Trash antispam_spam = Spam antispam_dspam_binary = /usr/bin/dspam antispam_dspam_args = --deliver=;--user;%u } Thanks in advance Malte Schirmacher

[Dovecot] What auth ?
by Spyros Tsiolis 03 Jan '10

03 Jan '10

Hello people, First of all a Happy New Year and best wishes to you all. I've managed to setup dovecot v1.2.9 on a CentOS 5.4 system and I am now, trying to make it auth. I would prefer virtual users and only want to make the IMAP/ IMAPS part work. I don't need POP3 or anything else. The rest will be handled by another SMTP/POP3 application. Now, I almost managed to make dovecot auth a virtual user with his password. However, when it seems it has passed the auth stage (either via IMAP _or_ IMAPS), the command line kicks me out. Here's roughly what I did : 1. Created /etc/dovecot/users and /etc/dovecot/passwd 2. filled in a couple of usernames/passwords encrypted in MD5 format 3. Ran dovecot from command line (service dovecot start [after I created the service ofcourse]) 4. telneted to localhost via port 143 or 993 (with the help of openssl: "openssl s_client -connect the.system.name:993") 5. typed : . login username@fqdn <password> Something worth noticing for step "5". If I do this logging-in with the "user@fqdn" format, the systems kicks me out. I, then, check the latest on "/var/log/dovecot/errors" to find that the system does not complain about the auth. If I do the same logging-in but instead use "user@localhost" (and not the fqdn), the system fails the authentication stage and does _not_ drop me into the shell. Go figure !! Anyway. My question, in essence, is this; Which type of auth should I use ? The manuals (that i've been sinking my head for the last couple of weeks) suggest I should use PAM. PAM, I cannot understand. At the moment, I _think_ I am using MD5. Any pointers here ? I've been reading the /doc/wiki directory for quite some time until it made no sense to me anymore (too much info makes me loose perspective). Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA, spyros

[Dovecot] disable lazy_expunge for some mailboxes?
by Frank Cusack 03 Jan '10

03 Jan '10

How to disable lazy_expunge for certain mailboxes? My problem is I have a public namespace, whose mail is on a different filesystem than user mails. Some users are allowed to expunge on this shared mailbox, but lazy_expunge is stopping that from working since the mail has to cross a filesystem boundary to make it into the lazy_expunge namespace (location is under the user's home directory). As a workaround can I run a daily cron job to remove messages with the \Deleted flag on them? If so how do I find them? thanks -frank

[Dovecot] Recalculate quota usage on demand
by Michael 02 Jan '10

02 Jan '10

I would a method for Dovecot to recalculate the quota usage and rewrite it to the quota DB (Called on demand by a non-Dovecot POP3 daemon) I don't want the line deleted in the DB as this would only recalculate next time the Dovecot LDA or IMAP handles a message, and I want to keep the data availability contiguous. Can this be done?

[Dovecot] nested folders

using both thunderbird and roundcube with dovecot IMAP, I can create all the folders I desire, but cannot create subfolders; I also cannot delete a folder once created. I get a very un-informative error message from each. Is there a special setting required to permit sub-folder creation? folder deletion?

[Dovecot] Using Push IMAP to trigger POP3 download
by Aaron Whitehouse 02 Jan '10

02 Jan '10

Hello all, I have an HTPC connected 24/7 to the Internet running Mythbuntu. I also have a web/email host that runs Dovecot for email and provides IMAP and POP3 access. I understand that Dovecot supports Push IMAP and I could, for example, use Thunderbird to connect to my email host to receive instant email as it arrives. I would like to add a Dovecot IMAP server on my HTPC (for increased storage, to aggregate multiple email accounts, to process messages with SpamAssassin and to provide a better webmail interface) and retrieve email from my webhost to my HTPC by POP3. To set up POP3 on my HTPC, I understand that the norm is to set a time interval (say, every 10 minutes) for clearing email. What I would prefer to do, if possible, would be to have Dovecot on my HTPC keep a Push IMAP connection with Dovecot on my webhost. When a new message is available on the webhost, my HTPC would be "pushed" a notification and it could do a POP3 download. This would allow it to clear emails with POP3 (and reduce storage requirements on my webhost), mean that I received emails instantly and not require me to have it poll for messages on a very-regular basis. Does anybody know if this is possible? As an alternative (not solving my space problem on the webhost, but solving the others), is it possible to set up Dovecot to "piggy back" off an existing IMAP server? In my example, my webhost does not offer good spam-checking and webmail. Would it be possible for me to set up a Dovecot server on my HTPC that received messages by Push IMAP, processed them with SpamAssassin (say, moving all of the spam messages to a subfolder) and provided a good web interface, all the while providing updates to the webhost's server? In some ways, this is almost more like an IMAP client than a server. I apologise if these questions are stupid! Happy New Year and thanks in advance, Aaron -- FSF Associate Member: 5632 http://www.fsf.org

[Dovecot] Deliver virtual user's mail to a specific namespace?
by Brian Schang 02 Jan '10

02 Jan '10

Hello: I have virtual users set up for the various mailing lists that I subscribe to. Everything has been working well in both Postfix and Dovecot. Postfix is configured to deliver to a specific mbox file within my mbox mail root. I can access retrieve and read email via Dovecot without any issues. Now I want to make my setup more robust and have these messages delivered to a maildir namespace. I have configured the LDA within the Postfix master.cf file: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient} I have configured the 'dovecot' transport within Postfix in the transport file: test(a)lists.schang.net dovecot: In dovecot.conf I have set up the namespace as follows: namespace private { separator = / prefix = "Lists/" location = maildir:~/MailLists subscriptions = yes } I'm having a hard time specifying the "Lists/" namespace in my userdb passwd-file: test:{PLAIN}linux:2000:200::/home/brian::userdb_mail=maildir:Lists/test I can't get the userdb_mail portion to work. For this user, 'test(a)lists.schang.net', how do I tell Dovecot/deliver to put the message in the 'test' mailbox within the 'Lists/' namespace? I'd appreciate any insight. Thank you. -- Brian Schang

[Dovecot] Issue Authenticating to a new dovecot-postfix installation
by Anthony Nedland 02 Jan '10

02 Jan '10

(Apologies if this is a resend, but I thought I had received a bounceback message.) I have installed dovecot-postfix and postfixadmin on an Ubuntu 9.10 machine. The userdb and passdb are both mysql. If I set up a user in postfixadmin they are able to send. I can successfully telnet into the server remotely by name on 110 and 25. I'm not looking for any authentication encryption/ssl any of that, just POP3/SMTP. When I telnet into 110 I can enter a username with user [username] then when I do pass [password] I get -ERR Authentication failed. I know the user info is correct. When I set up an account in Outlook Express I get "There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected:" Also saying -ERR Authentication failed.'. (0x800ccc90,0x800ccc92) So basically the same thing. I can attach the tutorial I used in as a .doc if that would help.

[Dovecot] Dovecot LDA with SetUID
by Michael 02 Jan '10

Has anyone been able to get Dovecot LDA working where each user has a different UID? All the howtos on the Internet I have found set the UID of a mailbox as fixed for all users. However I have tried to run it on the current SQL database we have (with different UID per user) and I get the following: Jan 1 16:25:40 HOST dovecot: deliver(EMAIL): Fatal: setgid(1000(stdusers)) failed with euid=8(mail), gid=12(mail), egid=12(mail): Operation not permitted I am calling this from Postfix with: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=mail:mail argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient}

[Dovecot] Quota with Dict + SQL not updating
by Michael 01 Jan '10

01 Jan '10

Hello all, I have a Dovecot server deployed with a MySQL back end. If the user logs in and there is no quota set for them in table 'quota', the system will automatically inset a line with their username and current messages/storage. However after this it fails to update the information when to reflect new messages coming to their inbox after the original insert of the information. It will only update the information when a user deletes a message. Why is it not updating this information every time their mail is checked with IMAP? Cheers, Michael

[Dovecot] Oracle SQL driver
by Alexander Bukharov 31 Dec '09

31 Dec '09

Hi all. Recently I was looking for an IMAP-server with Oracle support and unfortunatelly I couldn't find one. It was a surprise for me but there is no such functionality at all. So I've chosen an IMAP-server with most flexible and convinient architecture that was Dovecot-1.2.9 and written a driver for Oracle RDBMS support. I used Oracle Pro*C so a Pro*C preprocessor is needed to compile the driver. There is a lot of logging there that should be removed. It would be great if you consider to include this driver to mainstream so Dovecot will be the first IMAP server supporting Oracle as auth backend. All related files are attached. Cheers.

[Dovecot] A Dovecot Sieve spam filter question.

Hi, I'd like to make a filtering threshold for users to let them deal with spamassassin spam-level starred < 8 themselves, but spam-level starred higher than 8 should be discarded how can one do that with the "anyof" option ? the following doesn't work with a test email with "gtube", which scores > 999 : # require "fileinto"; if header :matches "X-Spam-Level" "\*\*\*\*\*\*" { fileinto "discard"; } and I think it would be nice to have not so many lines in the globalsieverc file.

[Dovecot] Hostname setting defaults
by Timo Sirainen 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

Any thoughts about the following? hostname setting currently defaults to system's host name, without the domain part. It's used (in v2.0): - dovecot-lda (new deliver): If -a parameter isn't specified and there's no Envelope-To: header, the destination address is generated as <username>@<hostname setting> - lda/lmtp: In generated Message-Id: headers ("dovecot-stuff@<hostname>") for rejects, vacation, etc. - lda/lmtp: in reject messages as part of MIME boundary, and also in "Reporting-UA: <hostname>; Dovecot mail delivery agent" header. - lmtp: In the protocol, e.g. "220 <hostname> Dovecot ready" or "421 4.4.2 <hostname> Disconnected for inactivity" - lmtp: In added Received: header Seems pretty clear to me that it should be host.domain.org, not just host. So I suppose I'll change that default. The other thing is postmaster_address. That's accidentally been postmaster(a)example.com in dovecot-example.conf and uncommented. So who knows how many installations have their postmaster address set to that.. I'm thinking of just commenting it out in next v1.2 release so admins needs to change that. But for v2.0 maybe there could be a good default for postmaster_address? "postmaster@<hostname setting>" I think? Because it's postmaster(a)host.domain.org instead of postmaster(a)domain.org, it might not be correct in most installations, but I'm thinking that maybe it's safer. Someone trying out Dovecot on testbox.biguni.edu probably doesn't want bounces going to postmaster(a)biguni.edu..

[Dovecot] dovecot-shared
by Frank Cusack 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

I'm confused about dovecot-shared. If the file exists, \SEEN flags are NOT shared? So if dovecot-shared exists, flags are actually private. The doc seems clear on this (albeit not worded very well). I only question it because intuitively you would think the opposite. If backwards compatibility is the reason for this reverse behavior, the file should have been named dovecot-private-flags. In fact that's a great name to stick a list of flags (one-per-line) that are private. -frnak

Re: [Dovecot] Retrieve Physical Message Filename
by Tony Rutherford 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

Thanks for the reply. I won't be changing any files, or even accessing them, i'll simply be passing the filename along to "another system". I'm not allowed to change this other system or any of its interfaces. The other system has been in place and is "off limits" as far as changes go (I'm told). To make it simple, this other system needs to be notified of any flag changes on emails. So, when we detect a flag change (in our plugin), we need to pass the message filename along to this other system. I hope this makes sense...and again...i'm not justifying the need for it, but I have to play the hand i'm dealt....Tony RutherfordSoftware EngineerBlueTie Inc.arutherford(a)bluetie.com(585) 586-2000 x1040-----Original Message-----From: "Timo Sirainen" [tss(a)iki.fi]Date: 12/29/2009 04:02 PMTo: "Tony Rutherford" CC: dovecot(a)dovecot.orgSubject: Re: [Dovecot] Retrieve Physical Message FilenameOn Tue, 2009-12-29 at 15:50 -0500, Tony Rutherford wrote: > Hi,Using Dovecot 1.2.9 with Maildir and Layout=FS.In a plugin, i'm > overriding "update_flags":void my_mail_update_flags(struct mail > *_mail, enum modify_type modify_type, enum mail_flags flags)For this > email which is having its flags updated, I need to retrieve the > physical filename of the message.

The problem is that by the time you're trying to access the file, its flags may have already changed, which also means its filename could have changed. So even if you got it, your code would probably randomly fail. What exactly are you going to do with the filename? Maybe you should instead be opening the file with mail_get_stream() and doing something with the fd. This message is intended solely for the individual(s) to whom it is addressed.

[Dovecot] Mail storage creation fails with virtual users
by Scott H. W. Snyder 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

So I have recently set up dovecot with a virtual users dovecot.passdb file, but when I attempt to telnet in, it fails because my virtual users don't have proper permissions to create mailboxes. I don't want to have to create actual users for each email account. Any idea as to what to do?

[Dovecot] Install fails when libdir and libexecdir are the same directory

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I'm using Dovecot 1.2.9.

[Dovecot] multiple attribute templates?
by Mariano Absatz 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

Hi, I've been using an attribute template for some time without any problems. My accounts are on an LDAP server and I have an attribute maildropPath which is the maildir path for the user relative to /home/vmail That is, user "mabsatz(a)example.org" has, in attribute maildropPath the string "example.org/mabsatz", meaning that the maildir is in /home/vmail/example.org/mabsatz This is configured like this (taken from http://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP/Userdb) user_attrs = maildropPath=mail=maildir:/home/vmail/%$ pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,maildropPath=userdb_mail=maildir:/home/vmail/%$ and it works OK. Now I want to start using sieve and, since all accounts are virtual, I want to use a subdirectory "sieve" within the maildir to hold the scripts, so I need (I think) a userdb home to point to the same path... being a monkey I tried to imitate (or rather, extend) the previous configuration like this: user_attrs = maildropPath=mail=maildir:/home/vmail/%$,maildropPath=home=/home/vmail/%$ pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,maildropPath=userdb_mail=maildir:/home/vmail/%$,maildropPath=userdb_home=/home/vmail/%$ Alas... this didn't work... that is, apparently, the "home" attribute works OK (I got my scripts on the /home/vmail/example.org/mabsatz/sieve directory), but the "mail" attribute got lost and mail is being delivered to /home/vmail/mabsatz. Is there a way to use more than one attribute template AND that both use the same LDAP attribute? Otherwise, can someone think of a better way to do what I'm trying to do? I'm using dovecot 1.1.11 from the standard ubuntu 9.04 package (dovecot-imapd_1.1.11-0ubuntu4.1). -- Mariano Absatz - "El Baby" el.baby(a)gmail.com www.clueless.com.ar -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Real programmers use: cat > a.out http://xkcd.com/378/ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- * TagZilla 0.066 * http://tagzilla.mozdev.org

[Dovecot] Deliver EX_TEMPFAIL's without giving any information
by Denis Khromov 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

Hi all. I've had a hard time trying to find out why deliver isn't working after I've updated dovecot from v1.11 to v1.2.8. It just gave me EX_TEMPFAIL without any info in the logs. My deliver was setuid-root. Once I've made a simple shell wrapper script for the deliver executable which saves deliver's stdout+stderr, I've found the reason: /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver must not be both world-executable and setuid-root. This allows root exploits. See http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA#multipleuids Did a 'chmod o-x deliver' and fixed groups/owners and now everything works as it should. I think this error message should go to log files, not just to stdout/stderr. And it's worth to describe this behaviour in the Wiki. Cheers, Denis

[Dovecot] dovecot -n output of (default) is confusing me
by john.blue＠cox.net 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

Hello, I'm new to dovecot and I've been taking my time examining what makes dovecot work. If I have imap and pop3 listed as protocols, dovecot -n outputs: mail_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3 I don't understand why imap is listed twice once as (default), and the other without (default). As a secondary question, why would you want a default of imap as opposed to pop3? Thanks. John

[Dovecot] Log rotation?
by Beto Moreno 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

Hi people. I had read dovecot logging info, they say something about using log rotation to help us rotate our log, with this setup: # dovecot SIGUSR1: Re-opens the log files. /var/log/dovecot*.log { missingok notifempty delaycompress sharedscripts postrotate /bin/kill -USR1 `cat /var/run/dovecot/master.pid 2>/dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true endscript } Well, my question is simple, Do we need to restart the service each time logrotation runs? In my case, is wrong this? var/log/dovecot*.log { weekly rotate 8 notifempty missingok copytruncate create 600 root start 0 } I have 2 dovecot logs: dovecot-info.log dovecot.log dovecot-info.log is the biggest, 5MB by week, is to much? Do I have to change our log rotation to "daily"? Centos 5.4 updated, dovecot 1.0.7-7.el5, thanks!!!

[Dovecot] Retrieve Physical Message Filename
by Tony Rutherford 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

Hi,Using Dovecot 1.2.9 with Maildir and Layout=FS.In a plugin, i'm overriding "update_flags":void my_mail_update_flags(struct mail *_mail, enum modify_type modify_type, enum mail_flags flags)For this email which is having its flags updated, I need to retrieve the physical filename of the message. I see where using:mail_get_special(_mail, MAIL_FETCH_UIDL_FILE_NAME, &fname);...I can retrieve part of the filename, but without the ":2" and the flags part.Is there a method I can use to get the whole filename (without having to reassemble it myself). I've looked around, and I'm guessing it exists, but I don't see it offhand.Thanks,...Tony RutherfordSoftware EngineerBlueTie Inc.arutherford(a)bluetie.com(585) 586-2000 x1040 This message is intended solely for the individual(s) to whom it is addressed.

[Dovecot] Design: Optimizations for high-latency storage backend
by Timo Sirainen 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

Mainly intended for future support of key-value (etc.) databases, but this is probably useful even for regular disk I/O. By using async I/O for disk access, the OS could more intelligently do seeks on disk to read the wanted data with less latency. Problem #1: Accessing message body while searching (e.g. SEARCH BODY). The idea is that searching wouldn't block. Caller would typically use mailbox_search_next_nonblock() function, which can return "try again later" result. Whenever search sees a query that could potentially block (e.g. SEARCH BODY, or searching a header that might not be cached), it goes into a slightly different search mode: - the whole search would typically be run from beginning to end immediately, and the search result state would be stored for each message. - whenever search runs into a situation where the result can't be determined without opening message body, it issues a prefetch command for that message, marks the result for the message as "incomplete", and continues to the next message - once the search is done with all messages, it starts replying to the caller. if the next search result is incomplete at the time, the search returns "try again later". optimizations: - probably there should be prefetch limit (a queue) so that only maybe 10 requests are actually pending at a time. - probably the whole search shouldn't run immediately. maybe it should stop after having 10 requests pending. - prefetch could return only the needed parts of the message, such as "only header" or "only body" (or in future something like "message without attachments") There would be a new call, something like mailbox_search_set_nonblock_callback() that specifies a function to be called when next search result is available. The callback then would continue the search. This is similar to how IMAP SEARCH is already implemented, except currently when mailbox_search_next_nonblock() returns "try again later", Dovecot simply adds a 0 second timeout after which it's called again (that's enough for Dovecot to do some other pending work). Problem #2: Accessing index cache while searching. Cache file is typically in memory or in low-latency disk already. Anyway something similar to #1 could be implemented for it. "Make sure cache x..y bytes in cache file have been read to memory" call or something. Problem #3: Fetching message body (and uncached fields). The nice thing about lib-storage's fetching API is that the caller already specifies what fields it intends to access in mailbox_search_init(). So this code can use a similar technique than searching: - callers only use mailbox_search_next_nonblock() - which keeps returning "try again later" until the message body has been read to memory - trying to access a field that's not specified in wanted_fields in mailbox_search_init() could be (optionally) treated as a programming error and cause a crash instead of a blocking wait. Problem #4: How to drop latencies between IMAP commands? For example a (stupid) client issues commands: a FETCH 1 BODY.PEEK[] a FETCH 2 BODY.PEEK[] ..etc.. You really don't want to a delay between each command. So what Dovecot code needs to happen is to start processing the next command while waiting for previous one to finish reading the body to memory. A lot of this actually already works as intended, but there are some cases that don't, such as FETCH + SELECT (see #5). Problem #5: Opening mailbox index. So if your indexes are also stored in high-latency disk, how do you optimize getting STATUS for each mailbox? Again, a similar idea than before: Create a new mailbox_open_nonblock() function that calls a given callback function when the indexes are read to memory. During the wait it can continue processing more STATUS commands (hopefully client sends them all at once, instead of waiting for each reply before sending next STATUS). .. I think that's all of the problematic cases that could cause blocking. And the solution is always the same: Use prefetching and "try again later" status code with a callback function to be called when it's ready. Luckily there are only two functions that need the above behavior, implementing async callbacks for all functions would have made programming it horrible. The main problem will then be to optimize what and how much to prefetch. For example in the cache file case, should the cache be read to memory when mailbox is opened, or should it be delayed until something is actually wanted to be read from it? Should all of it be read, or should Dovecot attempt to be smarter to reduce memory usage and I/O bandwidth, so e.g. if the cache is wanted to be accessed to 3rd last message, maybe just read the cache file beginning from that message to EOF? Transaction log files have a similar problem. Actually all of this is similar to how Dovecot attempts to cache them to memory when using mmap_disable=yes, so it's not really a new problem.

[Dovecot] Design: Mailbox list indexes
by Timo Sirainen 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

I drove over 2000 miles in recent days, so I had some time to think about future Dovecot things. :) Maybe for v2.1 or v3.0, whichever I happen to release next. Here's the first thought: The main idea behind mailbox list indexes was to make getting STATUS information for mailboxes from a single index file. The code was already written for Dovecot v1.1, but it was disabled because of bugs I never got around to fixing. It also was maybe a bit overdesigned to make it fast with thousands of mailboxes. There were two indexes: Mailbox UID -> name map index, and UID -> status info index. I don't think most people have that many mailboxes. Using two index files just makes the common case slower. So the new mailbox list index could be a single index (read/written to using the same index file API as for mails). Index's header would contain an ID -> string map. So basically an array of {uint32_t id, char nul-terminated-name[]} records. Each index record would contain: - mailbox UID number (32 bit) - ID number (32 bit), pointing to a string in the header. That'll be this mailbox's name. - parent mailbox UID (e.g. if parent's name is "foo" and our name is "bar", the mailbox is "foo/bar") - mailbox global UID (128 bit) - mailbox flags (\Noselect, \Nonexistent) - STATUS information: message/unseen counts, last-non-recent-uid (for recent count), uidvalidity, uidnext, highest-modseq - storage backend specific timestamps So typically the whole index would be read into memory and the mailbox tree would be generated based on the parent UID pointers. If there are any \Noselect or \Nonexistent mailboxes, they just have their GUIDs and STATUS info zeroed out. Each time a mailbox is created or renamed, a new name ID is added to the header with the given name. I don't think it's worth it to try to reuse old IDs. Unused names (after delete/rename) will be dropped sometimes later. Whenever STATUS information changes while accessing mailbox, the STATUS info is updated in mailbox list index. Also unless mailbox_list_index_dirty_syncs=yes (or something similar), the index can't be trusted by itself. So before trusting the index, Dovecot needs to check if the index is up to date by comparing the timestamps to what exists in filesystem. For example with Maildir there would be new/ and cur/ directories' mtimes. Then there's the problem of how to notice externally added/deleted/renamed mailboxes. It'll be immediately noticed if such mailbox is tried to be opened, but what about LIST replies? One possibility would be to refresh the list once when session begins and after that just have LIST return indexed mailboxes. Another would be to keep track of directory mtimes and keep stat()ing the dirs to see if something changes. The latter is probably more trouble than worth.. Besides caching LIST and STATUS replies, there's one additional thing I thought of that the mailbox list indexes will be useful for: atomic mailbox list updates. Even if the backend doesn't support e.g. atomic RENAME (such as Maildir++), this can be made practically atomic using the list index. CREATE, RENAME and DELETE commands begin by writing and committing a record to the mailbox list index about the change. Then they'll start the actual change, and finally write to the index that the change is complete. If it crashed in the middle, the next session would finish it. If another session tries to do a conflicting change before the change is finished, it would wait for the previous one to finish. (Probably practically the index would be write-locked and all changes would wait for previous ones to finish.) And the final functionality of this mailbox list index is for the future support of key-value (etc.) databases: The mailbox list index would be the authoritative list of mailboxes. It wouldn't be stored anywhere else.

[Dovecot] checking all folders for new mail (IMAP STATUS command)
by Florian Effenberger 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

Hello, I use Thunderbird as IMAP client and do a lot of server-side filtering with Sieve scripts. To be notified of new mails, I want to check all folders (a lot of them...) at once for new mails, and not only the inbox. According to http://kb.mozillazine.org/Checking_for_new_messages_in_other_folders_-_Thun… it should be sufficient to enable one setting -- given that the IMAP server returns the STATUS command correctly. I still run Dovecot 1.0 (from Debian 4.0), and it seems this version doesn't support the IMAP STATUS command, as I have to explictly query each folder with the second mentioned setting. What is the recommended way of checking all folders for new mails? Is there any server-side setting I can activate? Do newer versions of Dovecot support the STATUS command in the way Thunderbird expects it? Or does Dovecot even offer an option like the mentioned IMAP_CHECK_ALL_FOLDERS=1 and IMAP_ENHANCEDIDLE=1 in Courier? Sorry for my maybe dumb question... :-) Thanks, Florian

I am using Dovecot 1.2.9 "dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.14" and discarding email seems to work fine. The things I can think of are: 1) Wrong privileges for deleting. What user does procmail / deliver run as? 2) Old Bug in Sieve (http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-July/024290.html) 3) If it fails just sometimes, what is the difference between discarded and nondiscarded mails. If this does not turn up something, I do not have an idea what is going wrong. Only bugfix I then can you provide with, is not to discard but to move those files to a folder 'SPAM' and delete them by hand. Tobi

Hi, I'm currently running Dovecot 1.2.8 with dbox mailboxes. I've configured the use of shared mailboxes. I'm able to only see the top-level mailboxes: e.g. Inbox LogWatch Trash Sent but not LogWatch/Server1 LogWatch/Server2 Is this a know limitation of a bug? Rgds, N.

[Dovecot] sieve vs deliver -m
by Frank Cusack 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

I'm invoking deliver through postfix with a dovecot transport in master.cf, using the -m ${extension} argument. If I have no sieve script, or a sieve script with an implicit keep, the mail gets correctly filed into the -m mailbox. However if the sieve script has an explicit discard, this gets honored if it doesn't match another sieve action. Shouldn't -m take precedence? I would say that if an extension is present any other sieve action should be ignored, perhaps just sieve_before should be run then the message filed per the extension. -frank

[Dovecot] basic understanding of imap in dovecot
by dovecot＠paz.bz 24 Dec '09

24 Dec '09

I have always used a pop3 daemon, and switching to dovecot has been my introduction to imap. Imap is foreign to me. I am wondering if I am a little off-track here, and would like some clarification. My MTA (exim) delivers email to: /mail/user dovecot, sucks that mail from /mail/user TO /home/user/mail/<filenamesoffolders> dovecot IMAP further uses /home/user/mail/.imap/folders/{.index / .index.cache / .index.log} the mail folder which exim uses doesn't seem to get emptied by dovecot when it sucks the email into /home/user/mail/<filenamesoffolders> when using IMAP. If POP3 is used via dovecot, then it appears that the interaction is directly to the original exim folder and that it does indeed empty (or at least it has the "FOLDER INTERNAL DATA" entry). I suppose my question is, is there a way to have dovecot empty/parse the original exim mailbox so that the customer email isn't sitting in two spots, taking up double the space. This would be in the IMAP environment only, as POP3 seems to be fine. Any online references available to help a newbee understand IMAP? Thanks!

[Dovecot] Permissions errors while reading messages via IMAP
by Geoff Sweet 24 Dec '09

24 Dec '09

Greetings all, I have been trying to setup a new system using Postfix and Dovecot to manage email for a bunch of virtual domains. So far everything is great, and I am now at the point where I am trying to build a webmail interface for the system. I'm using RoundCube for now. The tutorial I have been working from is here: http://workaround.org/articles/ispmail-etch/ Which seems to be a decent enough read. At this point I can login without issue but I can't see any mail messages. When I login, dovecot throws errors like this: Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: auth(default): client out: OK 1 user=geoff.sweet(a)test.com Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: auth(default): master in: REQUEST 1 4312 1 Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: auth(default): master out: USER 1 geoff.sweet(a)test.com uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): Effective uid=5000, gid=5000, home=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): maildir: data=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): maildir++: root=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir, index=, control=, inbox=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<geoff.sweet(a)test.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=192.168.20.11, lip=192.168.20.12 Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=39/431 Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: auth(default): new auth connection: pid=4315 Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: auth-worker(default): sql(geoff.sweet(a)test.com,192.168.20.11): query: SELECT email as user, password FROM view_mailboxes WHERE email='geoff.sweet(a)test.com'; Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=imap lip=192.168.20.12 rip=192.168.20.11 lport=143 rport=43878 resp=AGdlb2ZmLnN3ZWV0QHdob290aXMuY29tAGJvYjEyMzQ1 Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: auth(default): client out: OK 1 user=geoff.sweet(a)test.com Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: auth(default): master in: REQUEST 2 4311 1 Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: auth(default): master out: USER 2 geoff.sweet(a)test.com uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<geoff.sweet(a)test.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=192.168.20.11, lip=192.168.20.12 Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): Effective uid=5000, gid=5000, home=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): maildir: data=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): maildir++: root=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir, index=, control=, inbox=/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): Namespace : Using permissions from /home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir: mode=0700 gid=-1 Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): open(/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir/dovecot.index.log) failed: Permission denied (euid=5000(vmail) egid=5000(vmail) missing +r perm: /home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir/dovecot.index.log) Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sweet(a)test.com): open(/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist) failed: Permission denied Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 last message repeated 2 times There is some permission issue that allows dovecot to deliver email to the /home/vmail location (I dislike this location and want to change it) via the dovecot LDA process, but then not be able to read it when accessed via IMAP.

[Dovecot] imap-login crashes after upgrade to Dovecot 1.2.8 Linux 64-bit
by Chris Wakelin 23 Dec '09

23 Dec '09

Hi all, We moved our Dovecot installation first of all to have all folders and inboxes on NetApps via NFS (with indexes local) then from a physical Solaris 8 4-way UltraSparc server running Dovecot 1.2.5 (32-bit) to a virtualised Ubuntu 8.04 64-bit server with a single virtual processor (in VMWare ESX 3.5) running Dovecot 1.2.8 (64-bit). Since the change, many of our users have experienced random disconnections when proxied in imap-login (either using the internal SSL proxy, or to an external IMAP server) and the error logs contain things like: > Dec 18 00:27:58 imap-login: Info: Disconnected: Connection queue full (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<user0>, method=PLAIN, rip=<ip0>, lip=134.225.32.156, TLS > Dec 18 00:27:58 imap-login: Panic: file ioloop.c: line 39 (io_add): assertion failed: (fd >= 0) > Dec 18 00:27:58 IMAP 9486 <user1> <ip1> : Info: Connection closed bytes=224/1753 > Dec 18 00:27:58 IMAP 10116 <user2> <ip2> : Info: Connection closed bytes=82/707 ... > Dec 18 00:27:58 IMAP 10296 <user3> <ip3> : Info: Disconnected in IDLE bytes=44/435 > Dec 18 00:27:58 IMAP 10298 <user3> <ip3> : Info: Disconnected in IDLE bytes=263/1662 > Dec 18 00:27:58 dovecot: Error: child 5124 (login) killed with signal 6 (core dumped) (latest ip=<ip0>) > Dec 18 00:27:58 imap-login: Info: Aborted login (no auth attempts): rip=<ip0>, lip=134.225.32.156, TLS: Disconnected and a backtrace gives: > (gdb) bt > #0 0x00007ff1030ad095 in raise () from /lib/libc.so.6 > #1 0x00007ff1030aeaf0 in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6 > #2 0x00000000004112d5 in default_fatal_finish (type=<value optimized out>, status=0) at failures.c:160 > #3 0x0000000000411333 in i_internal_fatal_handler (type=LOG_TYPE_PANIC, status=0, fmt=<value optimized out>, args=<value optimized out>) at failures.c:443 > #4 0x0000000000410996 in i_panic (format=0x6 <Address 0x6 out of bounds>) at failures.c:207 > #5 0x000000000041420e in io_add (fd=-1, condition=IO_READ, callback=0x404db0 <client_input>, context=0x6af000) at ioloop.c:39 > #6 0x00000000004059db in client_auth_failed (client=0x6af000, nodelay=true) at client-authenticate.c:103 > #7 0x0000000000405e07 in client_handle_args (client=0x6af000, args=<value optimized out>, success=true, nodelay_r=0x7fff571009af) > at client-authenticate.c:198 > #8 0x0000000000406214 in sasl_callback (_client=0x6af000, reply=SASL_SERVER_REPLY_SUCCESS, data=0x0, args=0x6361d0) at client-authenticate.c:277 > #9 0x000000000040eb13 in auth_client_input_ok (conn=0x75b6c8, args=<value optimized out>) at auth-server-request.c:196 > #10 0x000000000040dbf3 in auth_client_input (conn=0x75b6c8) at auth-server-connection.c:136 > #11 0x0000000000414aa8 in io_loop_handler_run (ioloop=<value optimized out>) at ioloop-epoll.c:208 > #12 0x0000000000413b9d in io_loop_run (ioloop=0x6552b0) at ioloop.c:335 > #13 0x0000000000408e81 in main (argc=2, argv=0x7fff57100c58, envp=0x7fff57100c70) at main.c:494 Up until this afternoon we had "login_process_per_connection = yes", and login_max_connections at the default (256). This evening I tried with "login_process_per_connection = no" with no problems, except more CPU load and needing to increase login_max_processes_count (and strictly speaking the max fds set with ulimit -n would need to be increased, though I didn't do that as it would have involved killing and restarting the master process - come back Solaris plimit!) Just after midnight, I switched back to "login_process_per_connection = no" and set "login_max_connections = 32" and managed to get core dumps enabled, hence the above! Apart from this problem, the virtual machine has been doing extremely well, so it's not CPU or I/O load related. I'm not sure whether the problem is caused by the switch from Dovecot 1.2.5 to 1.2.8, Solaris to Linux, physical to virtual, or 32-bit to 64-bit! Perhaps we changed too much at once, but it did mean we kept the service going while power was turned off in our main machine room last weekend ...

[Dovecot] expire db(s)?
by ben＠electricembers.net 23 Dec '09

23 Dec '09

with two separate dovecot/backend servers accessing one central mysql server, will it be ok to have them both use the same expires table? Or will that confuse the actual dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool.sh cronjob since some of the entries mailboxes won't exist locally? Ben

[Dovecot] qpopper to dovecot migration
by Jernej Porenta 23 Dec '09

23 Dec '09

Heya, We are in the process of migrating from qpopper to dovecot as POP3 server (and IMAP as well) and we hit the UIDL issue with dovecot. Qpopper uses its own algorithm to create UIDL values and if you set it up to write them down in the mbox file as X-UIDL, then dovecot can use them (pop_uidl_reuse = yes). But if you don't use that feature from qpopper, than X-UIDLs are missing and there is no way to create the same UIDL values. So, I was wondering if anyone else hit that issue and maybe knows how to address it (writing an extension or something)? Thanks in advance, regards, Jernej

[Dovecot] Dovecot Deliver CPU usage
by Aravind Divakaran 23 Dec '09

23 Dec '09

Hi All, We have upgraded the dovecot from 1.0 to 1.2.8. After upgradation we have noticed that dovecot deliver process is utilizing a lot of CPU. As a result the mailsystem will stop working. When we limit the no of procs in postfix for dovecot deliver the CPU usage will come down. But we are not facing this problem with the previous version. Below is the log files for dovecot when the error occurs write_full(/home/vmail/dhanbank.co.in/vinukumarvm/temp.server.be3e5a849a909847) failed: No space left on device dovecot: deliver(user(a)example.com): stat(/tmp/Dovecot Delivery Mail) failed: No space left on device But my system has 54gb of free space for root filesystem where tmp residing. Can anyone help me to solve this issue. Rgds, Aravind

[Dovecot] Openbsd Postfix-Dovecot-SASL
by thekat 22 Dec '09

22 Dec '09

Greetings all, I have a OpenBSD /Dovecot server at home running and sending / receiving email "internally" without issue.. Recently, I set up the same at our Parish, but one of our users wants to get their email externally. The user can read their email but has to "send" via the local ISP server.. The problem After much searching I have not found an answer to my question. I would like the user to authenticate to be able to "send" email "through" the server.. OpenBSD uses bsdauth by default in Dovecot.

[Dovecot] Dovecot v2.0 wiki
by Timo Sirainen 21 Dec '09

21 Dec '09

I forked the wiki to http://wiki1.dovecot.org/ is the old docs for v1.x http://wiki2.dovecot.org/ is the new docs for v2.0 For now wiki.dovecot.org points to wiki1, but once v2.0 is released I'll change it to point to wiki2. I symlinked the user directory, so users should stay synced between the wikis. The main reason for wiki2 is to be able to describe Dovecot v2.0's actual behavior everywhere and get rid of all the old v1.x specific settings. The wiki1 is already annoyingly bloated and confusing with information about v1.0 and then v1.1 and maybe even how it's still different in v1.2.. Now would be a good time to do any other larger changes, if anyone has suggestions. :) (Oh, and I haven't yet done any actual changes to wiki2..)

The main disadvantage of this way is executing external aplication on every RCPT TO command. If you'll decide to use perl consider using option perl_at_start to minimize aplication starting time.

[Dovecot] Released Pigeonhole Sieve v0.1.14 and ManageSieve v0.11.10 for Dovecot v1.2.9
by Stephan Bosch 21 Dec '09

21 Dec '09

Hello Dovecot users, Due to personal matters I haven't had time to do anything in the last few weeks. Before that I provided some pre-releases and since nobody indicated problems with those, I release them definitively now. I hope the shit storm has blown over, so that I can dedicate more of my time towards Pigeonhole development. The Sieve release involves a large architectural change, but also fixes quite a few small problems. The ManageSieve release is necessary to match Sieve API changes. Changelog Sieve v0.1.14: * Made the imposed limits on the number of redirects and the number of actions configurable. The settings are called sieve_max_actions and sieve_max_redirects. * Did a major rework of extension handling, making sure that no global state is maintained. This change was triggered by problems that global state info would cause for Dovecot v2.0, but it is also important for v1.2 as it significantly cleans up the library implementation. + Made LDA Sieve plugin recognize the deliver_log_format setting. + Message headers produced from user-supplied data are now RFC2047-encoded if necessary for outgoing messages. This is for example important for the :subject argument of the vacation action. + Added support for the $text$ substitution in the deprecated notify extension. + The subaddress extension now also accepts recipient_delimiter setting as an alias for sieve_subaddress_sep setting. This anticipates the recipient_delimiter setting in v2.0. - Fixed logging of mailbox names. It logged the converted mUTF7 version in stead of the original UTF8 version supplied by the user. - Fixed a minor memory leak in the multiscript support. - Fixed a bug in the recompilation of Sieve scripts. Made sure that scripts are only recompiled when the script file - or the symlink pointing to it - is strictly newer. Changelog ManageSieve v0.11.10: * This release contains adjustments to match changes in the Sieve API. This means that this release will only compile against Pigeonhole Sieve v0.1.14. - Fixed compilation of ManageSieve against CMUSieve. The releases are available as follows: Sieve: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.14.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.14.tar.gz.sig ManageSieve (package + patch): http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.10.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.10.tar.gz.… http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.9-managesieve-0.11.10.diff.… http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.9-managesieve-0.11.10.diff.… Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org for more information. Have fun testing the new releases and don't hesitate to notify me when there are problems. Releases for Dovecot v2.0 are still under development... Regards, -- Stephan Bosch stephan(a)rename-it.nl

[Dovecot] Dovecot vs Exim file locking
by Daniel Campos 21 Dec '09

21 Dec '09

Hi all: We're planning to deploy a large e-mail system storing maildirs in a NAS system through NFS. One of the options we're thinking on is using Dovecot+EXIM. As far as I've read in both project's documentation, both services implement locking allowing multiple servers to access the same maildirs in order to distribute the service load. However, I can't find any information explaining whether both locking mechanisms are compatible, whether any additional configuration is needed both in Dovecot and/or EXIM, or even whether any locking synchronization between both services is needed/recommendable at all. The only remote clue I've found is that, according to Dovecot docs: "Because Dovecot uses its own non-standard locking (dovecot-uidlist.lock dotlock file), other MUAs accessing the maildir don't support it." (but EXIM is not a MUA, anyway) Anyhow theoretically MailDir could even be considered free of locking problems, but I'm not sure of the real implications of putting together several Exim and Dovecot installations pointing to the same NFS filesystem. Any knowledge/experience/link/clue on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Daniel Campos

[Dovecot] deliver panics when handling mails bigger than some kByte
by Leon Meßner 19 Dec '09

19 Dec '09

Hi, i've just upgraded to dovecot-1.2.8 (from 1.2.4) and do now get the following errors when deliver gets hands on mails with some attachments. # tail -n 1 /var/log/messages Dec 14 19:00:36 mail3 dovecot: deliver(user): Panic: file istream.c: line 96 (i_stream_read): assertion failed: (stream->eof) The MTA is postfix running inside a FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE jail. The homes where deliver should put mails are mounted via NFS. As it works with small attachments perhaps this is related to the message size. However i don't get the "stale NFS file handle" error any more which i did under 1.2.4 (See thread that begins with: Message-ID: <20091016122519.GC6309(a)emmi.physik-pool.tu-berlin.de> ) Greetings, Leon

[Dovecot] dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files
by JW 19 Dec '09

19 Dec '09

In the past few months we've been having increasing problems with dovecot timing out pop3 logins. As best I can tell it gets to the point where it won't accept any new pop3 logins. The error in the mail log is: dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files I've researched this problem a number of times, usually I see suggestions to increase ulimit. I've done this a number of times, all the way up to: ulimit -n 8192 I've put that in the init script right above the daemon start line. So far it hasn't helped. In addition, when looking at lsof, it doesn't seem like we're anywhere near the actual limit. for example, last time dovecot only had 1032 files open. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing the error? Or what else I can try to figure this out?

[Dovecot] Maildir on NFS - attribute caching question
by Brandon Davidson 18 Dec '09

18 Dec '09

Hi Timo, We've been running Dovecot with Maildir on NFS for quite a while - since back in the 1.0 days I believe. I'm somewhat new here. Anyway... The Wiki article on NFS states that 1.1 and newer will flush attribute caches if necessary with mail_nfs_storage=yes. We're running 1.2.8 with that set, as well as mail_nfs_index=yes, mmap_disable=yes and fsync_disable=no. We have a pool of POP/IMAP and SMTP machines that are accessing the maildirs, and can't guarantee any sort of user session affinity to a particular host. We also mount our NFS shares with 'noac', which is what I'm writing to ask about. I'd like to stop doing that for performance reasons. Do you see any issues with taking that out of the mount options, given our environment? Thanks, -Brad

[Dovecot] lot's of timeouts
by Götz Reinicke - IT-Koordinator 18 Dec '09

18 Dec '09

Hi, since some time ago we do have a lot of "timeouts" connecting to our imap/po3 server. This week I switched the whole system to a new dual quadcore xeon, 24GB RAM, SAS2 RAID-10. (SUN Fire 4170) But the mailclients (mostly thunderbird and apple mail) still reporte the timeouts by accessing the mailboxes. The server is doing smtp, imap/pop3, webmailsystem and spam/antivirus-checking all together. (RH EL 5, sendmail, horde, mysql, mailscanner, spamassassin) We use the original RH dovecot-1.0.7, mbox-format and mailboxes up to 4 GB ... (historicaly grown ...) So where to start debugging the imap/pop3 timeouts? What information may I provide, which doc may I read? Thanks for helping me to find and fix the problem.

[Dovecot] v2.0.beta1 released
by Timo Sirainen 18 Dec '09

18 Dec '09

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/beta/dovecot-2.0.beta1.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/beta/dovecot-2.0.beta1.tar.gz.sig Now that v2.0 is in beta stage I don't expect anything big to change anymore. The configuration and the APIs shouldn't change in non-backwards compatible ways. There are still bugs left to be fixed and some small features to be implemented, but I'd like to have people start testing it more. The biggest unimplemented "feature" is how to convert v1.x configuration easily/automatically to v2.0. Either the old config file should be translated to new one, or Dovecot should be able to read the old config file as-is. I think I like the translation better, so that people won't still be using v1.x configuration when v2.1 arrives and drops v1.x support. Largest changes since alpha3: - if some IP address is failing authentications, all auth attempts from the IP are delayed increasingly. a successful auth drops the delay. max delay is 15 seconds. this is enforced by auth process, so it works across different connections/processes/protocols. - lib-storage plugin API changed. processes handling multiple users now support different plugins for different users. - expire plugin's settings work a bit differently now: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/46691becc45e - post-login scripting works again, see http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2009-December/045139.html - Tons of fixes

Hi all We are planning to upgrade Dovecot from production version 1.0.10 to latest version 1.2.9 Users are using maildir style mailboxes with ~20 GB of messages on SLES10 server. Upgrade will be done by installing new server and then migrating mailboxes from old on new server. Since dovecot-uidlist file have new format and index files have changed in v1.1, what must be done to have new Dovecot v1.2 working properly with old v1.0 maildirs? Thanks, regards Ivica Glavocic

Imagine of a web server running the administration interface, that is not even the IMAP server (I know I can install only common dovecot components) or imagine to write a OSX/Windows Administration tool (I would like to write a Xcode/PyOBjc tool).

[Dovecot] Why dovecot does not want to read my acl file?

Hi, Simple Scenario: Shared namespace and a specific UNIX group should have access to it.

[Dovecot] Filing to public folders

[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2.+
by Tom Mihalicek 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

The Dovecot version is 1.2.8 and i am using an LDAP for a user database. The problem is following... i would like to use a quota dictionary backend from file rather than sql proxy for some reasons. Is it possible to get the full path for dovecot-quota file location from LDAP like from mail variable (/mailboxes/storage_01/domain.org/u/us/use/user/dbox/dovecot-quota)? /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf user_attrs = storageBase=home,mailMessageStore=mail=dbox:~/%$/dbox/,mailQuota=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$,mailQuotaMessageLimit=quota_rule2=*:messages=%$ Also is it also possible the same for sieve location? I can solve the problem by adding in dovecot.conf sieve = /var/sieve/%Ld/%Ln/dovecot.sieve but i would like to have it all in one place ... t -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Dovecot-1.2.%2B-tp26803721p26803721.html Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] v1.2.9 released
by Timo Sirainen 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.9.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.9.tar.gz.sig Hopefully this release will be enough bug-free that I don't need to make v1.2 releases for next few months. * maildir: When saving, filenames now always contain ,S=<size>. Previously this was done only when quota plugin was loaded. It's required for zlib plugin and may be useful for other things too. + lazy-expunge: Support a single-namespace configuration. If a mailbox is deleted, its messages are merged with its old expunged messages (if there were any). + expire: Settings now support spaces in mailbox names by using quoted strings. - maildir: v1.2.7 and v1.2.8 caused assert-crashes in maildir_uidlist_records_drop_expunges() - maildir_copy_preserve_filename=yes could have caused crashes. - Maildir++ quota: % limits weren't updated when limits were read from maildirsize. - virtual: v1.2.8 didn't fully fix the "lots of mailboxes" bug - virtual: Fixed updating virtual mailbox based on flag changes. - fts-squat: Fixed searching multi-byte characters.

Hi Timo, the imap_client_workarounds are not always parsed. There was on situation, in which cmd->client->set->parsed_workarounds was set to WORKAROUND_TB_EXTRA_MAILBOX_SEP. Sorry, I can't remember what I have done. But when I try to delete a mailbox with Thunderbird imap_client_workarounds are not parsed: (gdb) print cmd->client->set->imap_client_workarounds $7 = 0x1422de0 "tb-extra-mailbox-sep" (gdb) print cmd->client->set->parsed_workarounds $8 = 0 And therefor the command 'x delete box_with_trailing_slash/' fails.

[Dovecot] CRAM-MD5 in Python
by Andre 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi to all! I’m writing a python module (python+sqlalchemy) to manage user and domain configuration on my system (I hope to get a CLI tool, a Web app and even a native Mac app, via PyObjc, from my lib). I’m implementing password crypto, but I have some problem in generating CRAM-MD5 password, dovecot style. I’ve found an old discussion on this mailing list and a piece of Perl that works, but I need to implement it in Python; I’ve even read code (hmac-md5.c), but before start hard coding (hard from my POV at least, since I’ve never worked with crypto algorithms in a deep way), is there anyone that have had solved the problem or has any idea on how to approach it?

[Dovecot] S=xxx missing in new messages
by Andre 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

Hi to all! I’m setting up dovecot 1.2.8 on my system to substitute an older IMAP server and I’m testing all features of Dovecot. Yesterday I was testing support for zlib, for compressed messages, to set up a new namespace for old mails and I read that it is safe to compress only mails that have the field “S=XXX” in their name (XXX being the original size of message) and to leave uncompressed the ones that don’t have S=XXX in their name. Testing and searching I discovered that only new mail, mail that used to arrive in mailbox via SMTP have S=XXX, mail copied from another mailbox loose S=XXX. Later I’ve found that this not work anymore, even directly delivered mail messages do not have S=XXX anymore. I use dovecot-lda as delivery program and postfix as SMTP server, but I’ve not touched postfix configuration since one month ago. What can it be? How can I have S=XXX again in my messages file name? TIA Andrea

Hi List, Is anyone is running Dovecot with Kerberos and tried to authenticate user from different REALM and have same user principal with default domain. Currently Dovecot only logs user principal w/o REALM. So before I go in production maybe somebody already run into this using Dovecot? If not I just create virtual machines and see how it behaves.

[Dovecot] Dovecot truncating Inboxes?
by Harald Strack 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi, Environment: >10000 Users (LDAP) Solaris 10 / sparc imap: dovecot-1.1.10 (pam-unix, no direct LDAP access) pop: dovecot-1.0.14 on another server (pam-unix, no direct LDAP access) mta: postfix (pam-unix, no direct LDAP access) procmail (pam-unix, no direct LDAP access) Filesystems: Inboxes and IMAP-home are on two different SAM-FS volumes. Problem description: Inboxes of users are disappearing / are truncated. we are using dovecot-1.1.0 since two month as main IMAP server. It replaced our long running but old version of UW-IMAP. Till the last week we had no problems and it worked quite well and the whole mail system worked in this configuration since several years. But since a week we receive more and more complaints regarding truncated/deleted mailboxes. First, we assumed user/client errors, but as such messages arrive more frequently, we did a deep analysis of the issue. The only common component of our mail system (postfix (local), procmail, pop, imap) that all concerned users have accessed, was dovecot-imap v. 1.1.10. We have no locking problems, we use fcntl(), dotlock for all mail components. We tested this with a small perl script and locking works fine (no delivery to a locked mailbox and so on...) Finally, all indications point to a bug in dovecot. Google and searches in this mailing list did not come up with any valuable results. Are there any known bugs / configuration problems concerned to the described problem? I greatly appreciate any help! Thx in advance Harald Strack

[Dovecot] Configure deliver to add ', S=<size>' to maildir message name
by alhashash-lists＠cilantrocafe.net 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi, I want to use the zlib plugin to compress my mail storage. According to the wiki, only messages with size attribute in the message id should by compressed. If I added the size part, dovecot assumes it is a new message. While dovecot undertands the ',S=<size>' attribute (IMAP shows that size), I could not configure deliver to add the size to message name. I'm using dovecot v1.0.13 Regards, M. Alhashash

[Dovecot] Sieve mails with decoded subject
by Johannes Bauer 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Dear all, I accidently posted this message to dovecot-news and want to apologize for any trouble I may have caused. Here it is again to the correct mailing list: Recently I'm getting a ton of porn/viagra/diet/casino spam mails which I tried to filter with sieve: if header :contains "Subject" [ "[SPAM]", "Bett", "Schlafzimmer", "Spielen", "Luder", "abhenmen", "poppen", "Casino", "Bonus", "abnehmen", "Gewinn", "Potenz" ] { addflag "\\seen"; fileinto "Spam"; stop; } Sadly, this didn't work - taking a closer look upon one of the spam mails, it seems the spamming rats have encoded the subject: Subject: =?US-ASCII?B?RW5kbGljaCBtZWhyIGVuZ2FnZW1lbnQgaW0gQmV0dGNoZW4=?= (reads: "Endlich mehr engagement im Bettchen") I'm thinking about filtering all such encoded subjects (as there's no reason to encode them US-ASCII), but suppose it were UTF-8 or something: how can I filter on the actual content, not the encoded subject? Surely someone has solved that problem already? Kind regards, Johannes

Hi all! I got a Debian with postfix-dovecot-spamassassin. I got a non perfect installation: when an internal mail has been sent i got this error: <error> ex: from root@* to root@*. Command output: Can't open log file /var/log/dovecot.log: Permission denied </error> Operations like "dovecot: 2009-12-15 11:17:24 Warning: Killed with signal 15" are writen. It's a permission problem: dovecot.log is owned by "root" and grupped by "adm" (chmodded 640). Where is the problem? I'm really blind now! Tx 4 suggestions! Bye, Antonello

[Dovecot] Is it possible to change service name of managesieve service?
by Zhang Huangbin 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi, list. In dovecot-1.2, managesieve is identified as 'sieve' service while use '%s'[1] in dovecot. Is it possible to change it? Because we store it in SQL/LDAP as 'managesieve' service name, we don't want to change this. Thanks [1] http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables -- Best Regards.

[Dovecot] commercial help
by Jim Pazarena 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Contact info * Author: Timo Sirainen, tss(a)iki.fi <mailto:tss@iki.fi>. * Please use the Dovecot mailing list <http://www.dovecot.org/mailinglists.html> for questions about Dovecot. You don't have to subscribe to it. * Depending on your needs, commercial support may be available. Send a mail if you're interested. according to the above (from the dovecot.org webpage), "commercial support may be available". After spending the better part of today trying unsuccessfully, I am ready to "Send a mail if you're interested". But I do not know WHO to send it to. Likely Timo, but I do not want to be presumptuous. I am on FreeBSD with Dovecot 1.2.4 I need to have both POP3 & IMAP working to replace vm-pop3d (which was POP3 only). Local users are: mbox:/home/%u/mail/:INBOX=/mail/%u with password in /etc/passwd Virtual users (which vm-pop3d handled readily) are mbox:/home/VIRTUAL/%d/%u:INBOX/mail/VIRTUAL/%d/%u with password in /exim/etc/VIRTUAL/%d/passwd It is worth it to me to pay a knowledgeable person to create the correct conf file to make this happen. Who should I contact? Thanks, Jim Pazarena

[Dovecot] User friendly vacation service
by Raymond Lillard 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Dear Dovecot list, I maintain a few small sendmail/dovecot/procmail based mail servers with system users only (no virtual domains or virtual users) on OpenBSD. I have been able to get a vacation system working with both with the native vacation program from OpenBSD and with procmail. I've been looking into dovecot sieve, but it doesn't appear to solve the bigger user complaint which is, they want to be able to control the vacation feature w/o my involvement. What is wanted is a system where the users can send a control mail message to themselves with the reply body in the message or failing that perhaps a secure web page to control the vacation function. Mail administration is NOT a full time job for me. I'm looking for simple, low overhead solutions. Any suggestions? Thanks for your time. Ray

[Dovecot] Problem with dovecot-sieve and russian
by Andrew A. Polyakov 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hello I have a problem with dovecot-sieve. When I create a folder in russian, the filter is not working properly. It creates a new folder with the same name and delivers the letter there. For example, I created a folder called &BD8EQAQ4BDIENQRC-/, but the letter got in &-BD8EQAQ4BDIENQRC-/. In all cases, the difference in the sign -. The folders in the english language is no problem. # uname -mrs FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p3 i386 # pkg_info | grep dovecot dovecot-1.2.8 dovecot-managesieve-0.11.9 dovecot-sieve-1.2+0.1.13 sieve rule: # rule:[test] elsif anyof (header :contains "Subject" "test") { fileinto "&BD8EQAQ4BDIENQRC-"; } -- С уважением, Андрей А.

[Dovecot] Doubts about namespace && thunderbird.
by Beto Moreno 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Hi people. I ask this because I'm confuse about the namespace stuff. I setup a server with Centos 5.4(updated)+dovecot 1.0.7+postfix 2.3.3. We use thunderbird 2.0.x as our default email client. I want to use courier-imap inbox layout: Inbox-- sent junk trash draft The inbox as father of the tree, other post say something about a namespace like this: separator = . prefix = Inbox. inbox = yes If I make this, thunderbird go crazy and tell me each time I try to access a user mail that :server respond-->unknown namespace, with this my layout is: Inbox Trash But if I try to access Trash, is went he send me that error and none of my users could access those folders. What is the problem with this? Now if I comment the namespace, my folders goes below the father(Inbox) u could not see the different. Last thing, how can I setup a global layout where each user the first time they log-in thunderbird could make: Trash, Draft, Sent? Thanks!!!

[Dovecot] expire-tool and userdb returned mail location
by Tapio Sokura 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Hello, I'm having problems with expire-tool in Dovecot 1.2.6 not finding the mailboxes. I had mail_location = mbox:/var/spool/dovecotmail/%d/%n/mails:INDEX=/var/spool/dovecotmail/%d/%n/indexes in dovecot.conf, but that doesn't work with expire-tool. So I commented that out from dovecot.conf, all the data is in a database anyway. A userdb lookup returns the following for userid@domain: home = /var/spool/dovecotmail/domain/userid/ mail = mbox:/var/spool/dovecotmail/domain/userid/mails:INDEX=/var/spool/dovecotmail/domain/userid/indexes Now when running expire-tool --test, I get this: Error: Namespace '': Mail storage autodetection failed with home=/var/spool/dovecotmail/domain/userid/ Info: User lookup failed: userid@domain When I run expire-tool under strace, I can see that it is indeed looking for the mails in the typical autodetect locations (Maildir, mail, Mail) under user's home directory. So it appers that expire-tool takes the home directory from userdb, but ignores mail location returned by userdb? Tapio

[Dovecot] IMAP server to move sent mail according to maildroprc?

The whole problem lies in a desire to use these two things in the same time: 1. maildrop filters file for all users messages (to place sent mail right); 2. store / access mails from mailserver, which is also a relayhost. Maybe there are some suggestions in this list on how should I solve the problem?

[Dovecot] outlook 2007 mailbox sort order
by Frank Cusack 12 Dec '09

12 Dec '09

What are people doing to affect the sort order of mailboxes in outlook? Apple Mail and MS Outlook similarly suck in that they do not sort '~' correctly -- mailboxes starting with '~' are first instead of last. At least I think this is the fault of the client, since Mulberry sorts correctly. At least with Apple Mail I can drag and drop mailboxes into any display order I like, so at least after the fact it can be "corrected". I want to provide shared, virtual and lazy_expunge mailboxes. I'd like these to be last in the list of mailboxes. This doesn't seem possible with Outlook unless I prefix the names with 'zz' or similar. yuk. -frank

[Dovecot] v2.0 post-login scripts
by Timo Sirainen 12 Dec '09

12 Dec '09

Post-login scripts work a bit differently in v2.0, because the old way just couldn't work anymore. I suppose at some point I should fork the wiki to v1.x and v2.x and start writing these things there, but for now I'll just write it here: First you'll need to tell imap service that it should connect to postlogin service: service imap { executable = imap imap-postlogin } Then you'll need the imap-postlogin service: # The service name below doesn't actually matter. service imap-postlogin { executable = script rawlog /tmp/test.sh unix_listener imap-postlogin { } } The "script" executable does all the magic. If you want multiple scripts, just make them a chain, like above script first executes rawlog, and rawlog then executes /tmp/test.sh: #!/bin/sh echo "* OK Hello $USER ($IP -> $LOCAL_IP)" export MAIL=maildir:/tmp/test export USERDB_KEYS="$USERDB_KEYS mail" exec $* So it's pretty similar to how it works before, except now you'll also need to update $USERDB_KEYS to contain all environments that you want to pass to imap process.

[Dovecot] shared virtual (plugin) mailboxes?

With the virtual plugin is it possible to create shared virtual mailboxes? It seems to work (I created them under /etc/dovecot/virtual) but I wanted to make sure it is supported. -frank

[Dovecot] id/permissions question
by Kārlis Repsons 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

People, There is an imap client, which runs with user1 uid, but when its accessed to watch a maildir, whose (and its contents) ownership is user1:user1, this error occurs: dovecot: IMAP(user1): fchown(/path/user1/dovecot-uidlist.tmp, -1, 12(mail)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=1000(user1), group based on /path/user1) dovecot.conf contains this line: mail_privileged_group = mail authentication happens through passwd-file, where for user1 its uid and gid are specified as in /etc/passwd and /etc/group. So how should dovecot be told to use user1 group instead of mail group? (or it needs some other solution?)

[Dovecot] Problem using LDAP generating Userhome
by Thorsten Habich 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

Hi there, I'm trying to let dovecot generate the userhome directory dynamicly via user_attr. If "uid" is returned from LDAP before "mail" everything is fine, but if "mail" is delivered before "uid" the localpart of the mailaddress is used in home path. e.g.: Mail: testuser(a)domain.de UID : test123 sometimes home is /mail/store/testuser and sometimes /mail/store/test123 depending on the order the ldap server replies. I'm currently using version 1.2.7 of dovecot in testing and 1.1.6 in production. Both have the same "bug". Mails are stored on nfs, indexes are stored local. This is my dovecot-ldap.conf configuration: pass_filter = (|(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(mail=%u))(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(mailalternateAddress=%u))(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(uid=%n))) pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,mailMessageStore=home=%$/telefonica.de/%Ln,mailFilterStore=sieve_dir=%$/telefonica.de/%Ln user_filter = (|(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(mail=%u))(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(mailalternateAddress=%u))(&(objectClass=mailRecipient)(uid=%n))) user_attrs = uid=user,mailMessageStore=home=%$/telefonica.de/%Ln,mailFilterStore=sieve_dir=%$/telefonica.de/%Ln The filter needs to be that way, because you need to be able to authenticate by uid or mailaddress. And the dovecot -n output: # 1.2.7: /etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-92.1.13.el5 x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2 (Tikanga) base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot-info.log log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S syslog_facility: local1 protocols: imap managesieve listen(default): *:143 listen(imap): *:143 listen(managesieve): *, [::] ssl: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(managesieve): /usr/libexec/dovecot/managesieve-login login_greeting: IMAP mail server ready. max_mail_processes: 200 mail_max_userip_connections(default): 50 mail_max_userip_connections(imap): 50 mail_max_userip_connections(managesieve): 10 verbose_proctitle: yes first_valid_uid: 1 mail_privileged_group: vmail mail_uid: 500 mail_gid: 500 mail_location: maildir:~/:INDEX=/mail/index/%Ln/ mailbox_idle_check_interval: 10 mail_debug: yes mmap_disable: yes mail_nfs_storage: yes mail_nfs_index: yes lock_method: flock mbox_write_locks: dotlock fcntl mail_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(managesieve): /usr/libexec/dovecot/managesieve mail_plugins(default): expire autocreate mail_plugins(imap): expire autocreate mail_plugins(managesieve): mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(managesieve): /usr/lib64/dovecot/managesieve imap_client_workarounds(default): delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(imap): delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(managesieve): managesieve_implementation_string(default): dovecot managesieve_implementation_string(imap): dovecot managesieve_implementation_string(managesieve): Cyrus timsieved v2.2.13 namespace: type: private separator: . prefix: INBOX. inbox: yes list: yes subscriptions: yes namespace: type: public separator: . prefix: Public. location: maildir:/mail/store/a.backend/shared list: yes subscriptions: yes lda: hostname: xxx mail_plugins: sieve expire mail_plugin_dir: /usr/lib64/dovecot/lda auth_socket_path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master postmaster_address: xxx(a)telefonica.de sieve_global_dir: /mail/store/backend/sieve/ auth default: mechanisms: plain login username_format: %Lu verbose: yes debug: yes process_size: 512 passdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf userdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf socket: type: listen client: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-client mode: 432 user: postfix group: vmail master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 384 user: vmail group: vmail plugin: sieve: ~/%Ln.sieve sieve_dir: ~/sieve sieve_storage: ~/ expire: Trash 7 Trash/* 7 Junk 30 expire_dict: proxy::expire autocreate: INBOX.Trash autocreate2: INBOX.Drafts autocreate3: INBOX.Sent autosubscribe: INBOX.Trash autosubscribe2: INBOX.Drafts autosubscribe3: INBOX.Sent dict: expire: db:/var/lib/dovecot/expire.db Thanks in advanced.

[Dovecot] Dovecot Sieve some rules not working
by tobi 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

Hope this list is the right place for a question about dovecot sieve. I have some rules of which some are working and some are not. I cannot understand why two rules wont work. }elsif header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "from" "EMAILADDRESS" { fileinto "Computer &- Security.Foren &- Maillists.Synology.Forum"; stop; } elsif header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "from" "EMAILADDRESS" { fileinto "Computer &- Security.Foren &- Maillists.PHP-Resource"; stop; } elsif header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "subject" "*****SPAM*****" { fileinto "Junk E-mail"; stop; } else { keep; } The first one works as expected. But the second and third one don't work and emails matching those rules remain in INBOX. There are not errors in the errorfile in users home directory. The only thing I changed was to move the Folder "Computer &- Security" and changed the fileinto destinations accordingly. The folder "Junk E-mail" was not moved but the rule that worked before is not working anymore. I have no clue why only part of the rules work and where I could check what the problem coud be. Thanks for any help/hints Cheers tobi

[Dovecot] Problems with listescape and mutt
by Daniel Spannbauer 11 Dec '09

Hello, we are using Dovecot 1.2.6 with activated listescape-Plugin. Mutt mutt seems to have a problem with listescape (or my configuration [1] is screwed). When I log in with mutt over imap an press "c", I see al the folders, .Trash, .Drafts etc. But when I try to change to .Drafts (for example), mutt gives me the error the he can't find the folder "\2eDrafts".

[Dovecot] Account Migration Tool
by dmiller＠amfes.com 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

I don't know if this tool already exists, or if not how difficult it would be to implement, but the following is an excerpt from the man page the developer needs to write ;) - "imapcopy", a command-line utility that connects to a given IMAP account and copies the mails to a second IMAP account. This is accomplished using only IMAP commands and may be used with any IMAP compliant server - and may be used to copy mails between servers. Command line options include the ability to delete the messages after the copy (resulting in a move operation), selectively filter mail folders, and auto-folder creation. -- Daniel

[Dovecot] dovecot: Fatal: Time just moved backwards by 3909 seconds.
by Udo Rader 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Hi, after setting up a KVM based virtual guest on one of our virtualization servers, we see dovecot die on that virtual guest regularly because of an alleged time shift. The virtual guest is Centos 5.4 based with dovecot 1.2.8 (at first we also tried with the original 1.0.7 (?) dovecot shipped with Centos). I wrote "alleged time shift" because there is no timeshift whatsoever, or at least I don't notice it anywhere else. ntp is - of course ;-) - up and running and no other applications have time troubles and I've even disabled the local clock as a time reference. As a proof that the time did not shift see this log excerpt: ------CUT------- Nov 29 14:02:22 athesia dovecot: IMAP(atester): Connection closed Nov 29 14:04:11 athesia dovecot: imap-login: Time just moved backwards by 4397 seconds. This might cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now. http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards ------CUT------- So as you see, dovecot successfully logged a message on 14:02 and then complained about the time having shifted 4397 seconds on 14:04 ... Thanks in advance -- Udo Rader, CTO http://www.bestsolution.at http://riaschissl.blogspot.com

[Dovecot] Overriding Default Subscription Behavior
by Tony Rutherford 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

The subscription files we're migrating from have a "." for folder separation. We will be using Dovecot's maildir with LAYOUT=fs. It's looking for "/" as the separator in the subscription file. So, obviously we could simply write a script to swap the two characters. However, just curious if there are any options for doing this within a plugin (since we're already doing some things in a plugin) by overriding some of the subscription code.something like the "next_line()" in subscriptions.c. I don't see any vfuncs in this area, aside from set_subscribed() I believe.but maybe there's a better spot I'm not thinking of? One thing I've learned with Dovecot is that it somehow supports things I didn't believe it could/would, so I thought I'd ask. Tony

[Dovecot] PostgreSQL connection bug
by Daniel Howard 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Hello, There seems to be a bug which can affect systems using PostgreSQL as a user or password database. Usually there is just one postgres connection, but if the query fails for any reason, the failed connection is left open and dovecot will keep opening new connections for each auth attempt. I discovered this with a setup using PAM, AND a database to authenticate. Most users login with an account number (integer) which is looked up in the postgres database. Some users have a unix system account, and use their system username to log in (string). Dovecot was set up to check the database first, then try PAM. When a system user logged in, the SQL query failed because it couldn't coerce the system user's username into an integer. In these cases, Dovecot would still fall back to PAM authentication, and the user would log in, but the postgres connection would remain stuck. Gradually the number of connections would increase until postgres failed. I worked around this by converting the account numbers in the database from integers to strings. Now the query never fails and there's only ever 1 dovecot connection. Hopefully this will help someone. dovecot --version 1.0.15 dovecot -n # 1.0.15: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir auth default: passdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd userdb: driver: prefetch cat dovecot-sql.conf | egrep -v "^#" driver = pgsql connect = host=localhost dbname=rapidgroup user=dovecot password=********* default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = SELECT userid as user, password, userdb_mail, userdb_uid, userdb_gid FROM dovecotview WHERE userid='%u' Cheers, Dan

[Dovecot] SASL plain authentication failed; unable to lookup user record
by JP 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

i'll guess the solution to my problem will be something simple and obvious, because i know i ain't the first person to do this and it ain't all that complicated, but i've been staring at it for days and can't see what's wrong. new installation; os x snow leopard server; postfix 2.5.5; dovecot 1.1.17apple0.5 i'm trying to get SMTP auth working via SASL. using a plain password scheme and plain auth scheme over SSL. client is apple mail. deliveries are working, and dovecot's pop3s and imaps are working just fine. my configuration is the same simple config that is well documented on both the postfix and dovecot sites. when i attempt to use smtp auth from a mail client, postfix says SASL plain authentication failed unable to lookup user record smtp authentication also fails if i use the usual command line method: # telnet localhost 25 Escape character is '^]'. 220 osx-106.example.com ESMTP Postfix EHLO foobie.example.com 250-osx-106.example.com 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 10485760 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN CRAM-MD5 250-STARTTLS 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-8BITMIME 250 DSN AUTH PLAIN blah blah blah 535 Error: authentication failed i've scoured months worth of postfix and dovecot list archives and although there are many sasl related issues i didn't see anything specific to this. as expected, the socket is srw-rw---- 1 _postfix _postfix 0 Dec 4 08:51 /var/spool/postfix/private/auth lsof shows the socket is open by dovecot-auth (which is running as root): dovecot-a 63614 root 5u unix 0x0888b990 0t0 /var/spool/postfix/private/auth i have not seen the socket opened by postfix, but i'm assuming that is a transient event and would be difficult to capture (at least with lsof). so both postfix and dovecot have read/write access to the socket. the credentials sent are the same whether they're sent via a true pop3 client or via the command line. when sent via the command line, they're generated via perl -MMIME::Base64 -e 'print encode_base64("\0username\0password");'and i've verified they're correct via decode_base64 config stuff: # postconf -n biff = no command_directory = /usr/sbin config_directory = /etc/postfix content_filter = smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024 daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix debug_peer_level = 2 enable_server_options = yes header_checks = pcre:/etc/postfix/custom_header_checks html_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix/html inet_interfaces = all mail_owner = _postfix mailbox_size_limit = 0 mailbox_transport = dovecot mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq manpage_directory = /usr/share/man message_size_limit = 10485760 mydomain = example.com mydomain_fallback = localhost mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8,192.168.61.0/24 newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases queue_directory = /private/var/spool/postfix readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix recipient_delimiter = + relayhost = sample_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix/examples sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail setgid_group = _postdrop smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated reject smtpd_enforce_tls = no smtpd_helo_required = yes smtpd_helo_restrictions = reject_invalid_helo_hostname reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname smtpd_pw_server_security_options = plain, login cram-md5 smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated permit_mynetworks reject_unauth_destination check_policy_service unix:private/policy reject smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/certificates/osx-106.example.com.E2FA6EFB8203E2E09C605D30A179669E4B4F69EB.chain.pem smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/certificates/osx-106.example.com.E2FA6EFB8203E2E09C605D30A179669E4B4F69EB.cert.pem smtpd_tls_exclude_ciphers = SSLv2, aNULL, ADH, eNULL smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/certificates/osx-106.example.com.E2FA6EFB8203E2E09C605D30A179669E4B4F69EB.key.pem smtpd_use_pw_server = yes smtpd_use_tls = yes unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 virtual_alias_maps = virtual_gid_maps = static:5000 virtual_mailbox_base = /etc/postfix/datastore virtual_mailbox_domains = osx.example.com virtual_mailbox_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/datausers virtual_minimum_uid = 100 virtual_uid_maps = static:5000 # dovecotd -n # 1.1.17apple0.5: /private/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf Warning: fd limit 256 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load (more than 456).

[Dovecot] Cannot read mdir inbox.
by Marc Dufour 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Problem: Dovecot is totally and merrily oblivious to maildir INBOX installed in the usual /var/spool/mail/%u Software/system: Dovecot 1.2.8 running under Fedora 12 with 1.9 gig RAM + AMD Athlon LE-1640 CPU on a ASUS M3A78-EM motherboard (uname -a = Linux 2.6.31.6-162.fc12.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Dec 4 00:06:26 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ) Dovecot has been installed from the Fedora repositories, not recompiled from scratch. System has only one hard disk and is on one ext4 LVM partition. My configurations are http://emdx.org/Dovecot/dovecot.confA.txt for "dovecot -a" http://emdx.org/Dovecot/dovecot.confN.txt for "dovecot -n" The mail is properly delivered by Exim in the proper place. Using a client (Thunderbird 3), if I copy some messages in the INBOX, they stay there, but they are nowhere to be found in the /var/spool/mail/%u directory. User mail is in ~/Maildir. I tried to make a symlink pointing to /var/spool/mail/%u and, of course, it does not work. I also tried giving chmod 666 to all files in /var/spool/mail/%u (and chmod 777 for the directories), this makes no difference. Otherwise, Dovecot works flawlessly and without no problems whatsoever in ~/Maildir. I can transfer huge volumes of email from the future old server and everything is rock solid. I just can’t get the INBOX. I would rather not fiddle with Exim and have it deliver the mail into ~/Maildir Google has been stellarly inefficient in helping me find solutions.

[Dovecot] Virtual mailboxes not always up to date?
by Patrick Nagel 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Hi, I have been experimenting with the Virtual mailboxes plugin [1] recently. This is my setup: the following dovecot-virtual file exists in a virtual mailbox called "todo": ------ dovecot-virtual ------ * -Trash -Trash/* -Spam -Spam/* OR KEYWORD $TODO KEYWORD todo ----------------------------- so if any mail in any mailbox except Trash+Spam has the keyword "$TODO" (that's what KMail sets when you mark a message as "action item") or "todo" (that's what Thunderbird sets when you put the Todo tag on a message), it should be shown in that 'todo' virtual mailbox. This works for the first time after I edit the dovecot-virtual file and then access the virtual mailbox (all mails I expect to be shown in the todo mailbox are there) - but further accesses always show the same content, even though I removed the keyword from one of the mails (and I can confirm that the keyword has actually been removed by dovecot, since the filename doesn't contain the letter corresponding to the keyword anymore). It seems that changing the dovecot-virtual file triggers the execution of the "search program" - but shouldn't simply accessing the virtual mailbox also trigger it? Or is there a (undocumented?) timeout between search program executions? Patrick.

[Dovecot] Patch: event port-based ioloop and notify
by Emanuele Pucciarelli 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Greetings, thanks to all of you who work on Dovecot! I have prepared a small patch to support Solaris 10 and Opensolaris' event port mechanism for both the ioloop and the notify subsystems. It seems to work fine for me, but I haven't conducted any extensive testing. It would be great if someone could review and/or test it (and if it could eventually enter the code base). I have uploaded a copy at http://cr.opensolaris.org/~e.p/dovecot/dovecot-01-fen.diff . Thanks! -- Emanuele

[Dovecot] Mail.app + dovecot 1.2 + POP3
by Rodolfo Gonzalez Gonzalez 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

Hello all, I have an user with MacOS X 10.5 Mail.app 3.5, which is connecting using POP3 to a dovecot 1.2 server. He has a 512 kbps link, which he saturates downloading large files. While the bandwidth is saturated, Mail.app shows the POP3 account as "offline" (I haven't used that client, but it seems that it doesn't retry the connection if it fails at some moment). He argues that he has some other POP3 and IMAP4 accounts configured in the same app, and those accounts never go "offline" even if the bw usage is at 100% (those other accounts are not on my servers and I don't know which sw are they using). My question is, could dovecot be somehow involved in this "offline" issue? (something like the past IDLE issues with Outlook 2007?) Thanks in advanced.

Re: [Dovecot] After upgrading to 1.2 - absolute path questions
by Richard Stockton 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Hi Timo, Okay, I'm confused now... Here is what we are using with 1.1.19: password_query = SELECT password, home as userdb_home, 5000 as userdb_uid, 5000 as userdb_gid FROM mailbox where userid = '%n' mail_location = maildir:/mail/%h:INDEX=MEMORY The "/mail/" dir contains 26 NFS mounted partitions. Will this still work in 1.2? I have been holding off upgrading because it sounded like I would have to add the "/mail/" prefix to all the "home" directories in my user DB, and with 5 instances of Dovecot running off the same DB, I would have to shut down the pop/imap servers for the upgrade, something that would NOT make my boss happy. However, if I can leave the configs and the database as they are, the update will not be a big problem. Please let me know if I can use the old configs with Dovecot 1.2.x, I would love to be using the latest and greatest. And BTW, thanks again for all your hard work, Dovecot is a wonderful piece of software, and we really appreciate it! - Richard

[Dovecot] v2.0.alpha3 released
by Timo Sirainen 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/alpha/dovecot-2.0.alpha3.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/alpha/dovecot-2.0.alpha3.tar.gz.sig Nothing horribly exciting since alpha2, but since I did other releases I thought I might as well release this one too. - Most of the stuff in master.conf is now built into binaries so the file itself is small. dovecot -n also doesn't show the defaults anymore. - Settings now have size and time types. So instead of always wondering if the units are bytes or kilobytes or megabytes, you can just use e.g. 100k, 100M values. And the same for 100 secs, 100 mins, 100 hours, etc. - verbose_proctitle=yes was pretty useless in alpha2 after the pre/post-login changes. I've now enabled Linux proctitle hack that allows changing process title (in ps). It now shows e.g. the current command being executed by imap process. There is also some hope of getting a proper setproctitle() function to Linux, the patch just got to -mm code tree today! - anvil process now stays alive across SIGHUPs. So "doveadm who" no longer forgets users after SIGHUP. - remote_ip IP {} and local_ip IP {} changed to remote host|IP {} and local host|IP {}, i.e. if it's not an IP Dovecot does host name lookup. - Using host names is also important to get TLS SNI working. With TLS SNI support if client supports it, you can serve multiple certificates with a single IP address. - LMTP server adds now Received: header - Fixes to LMTP server - Fixes to dsync Some of the larger changes left: - plugin API probably needs to be changed, so that it's possible to handle multiple users by same process but with different plugins - config process is too slow - rawlog no longer works because of how pre/post-login works now. it probably needs to be changed into a service and configured something like: service imap-rawlog { executable = rawlog imap-real /home/%u unix_listener imap { } } service imap { unix_listener imap-real { } } The point would be that when imap-login connects to imap, it actually connects to rawlog which then connects to imap-real and starts proxying the connection. A few problems: 1) userdb lookup is done by imap process, so rawlog doesn't know user's home directory. Perhaps more code could be added so that rawlog requests imap process to send it back, but maybe that's too much trouble. That's why I thought just adding a 3rd /home/%u parameter, where rawlog expands %u to username since that's at least known. 2) Currently it's not possible to remove default internal unix_listeners, so the above config wouldn't actually work anyway. I guess there needs to be some new syntax like "!unix_listener imap" or something that removes it.. Then again, a nice thing about this is that the rawlog will work with all types of services, even imap-logins, although that's going to be almost useless for SSL connections.

[Dovecot] How do i translate the old default_mail_env setting?
by Gary Kline 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Hi, First, I am new to dovecot. Before my Jan '08 meltdown, sendmail was sufficient. A friend set up dovecot and since things just-worked, I was happy with that. Now I have a new mailserver and what was installed nearly two years ago fails. My pal installed things in dovecot.conf this way: default_mail_env = maildir:~/Maildir but the new mail environment is too different to be readily understood. --At least for me!-- The "%u" variable is confusing; so in the "%h" ($HOME [?]) variable... Would the following edit work on my old conf file: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir ? tia, gary kline -- Gary Kline kline(a)thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org The 7.31a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php

I debugged and realized that patched plugin generates - for search "xxx yyy": q=body:"XXX YYY*" It should be: q=body:XXX* +body:YYY* (not q=body:"XXX*" +body:"YYY*" - quotation does matter) But this does not work as expected. Prefix searches (with asterisk) are case-sensitive. I googled around and found this post - http://michaelkimsal.com/blog/solr-case-sensitivty/comment-page-1/#comment-… . It is old - 2007, but it looks SOLR is still case-sensitive for *. Because of dovecot capitalizes query (and this is right, I think), the search will never find a thing. I played with Solr admin for 3 evenings and I have to say - its behaviour is strange. For example, if I send several emails with body of 2 words: "xxx yyy", "yyy xxx", "xxX yYY" etc. - different case and different word order - it does not find "xxx" in all emails. Maybe Solr 1.4 is not production-ready yet and 1.3 is better. But it is enough for me, maybe I will return to it in next year. Now I will try to apply your changeset (fts-squat: Fixed searching multi-byte characters) to dovecot 1.2.4 (debian stable). If you think 1.2.8 is better, I will follow your recommendation.

[Dovecot] LDA: handling non-existent mail dirs
by Edgar Fuß 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

We have users existing in LDAP but not supposed to receive mail. We used to handle that (somewhat ungracefully) by simply not creating the top mail directory for those accounts. Since switching to Dovecots LDA, these non-existing dirs are considered temporary failures and so the junk mails pile up in postfix' queue Would it be possible for deliver to optionally treat this as a permanent error? I know the clean solution woud be checking for an LDAP attribute in postfix before even accepting the mail.

[Dovecot] dovecot v 1.28 and virtual folders
by Jim Richard 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

I haven't been able to make this work. I've experimented with different settings in my dovecot.conf for hours. I have a simple single user ubuntu setup, nothing fancy and would just like to have a virtual "unread" folder of my main INBOX, for use with Squirrelmail So, with just this, all good... subfolders look like .INBOX.duplicates for example in the file system namespace private { separator = . location = maildir:~/Maildir inbox = yes } now, when I try to add a virtual namespace namespace private { subscriptions = yes list = yes inbox = no prefix = virtual. separator = . location = virtual:~/Maildir/virtual } ~/Maildir/virtual does exist in the filesystem, I can "subscribe" to virtual but if I try to create a sub folder of it I get ERROR: Could not complete request. Query: CREATE "virtual.test" Reason Given: [CANNOT] Can't create virtual mailboxes Squirrelmail is great because it has some nice IMAP testing tools, so for example, with my current dovecot config I can test the NAMESPACE command, is that the correct response? Request: A003 NAMESPACE Response: * NAMESPACE (("" ".")("virtual." ".")) NIL NIL Namespace completed. I'm sure the issue is a fundamental lack of understanding of a concept here ... Any help would be appreciated. thank you, -Jim

[Dovecot] mailboxcasecmp()
by Frank Cusack 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

I remember way back, i'd modified the dspam training plugin to compare mailbox names case-insensitively. that patch wasn't accepted. i didn't understand why since it was obviously correct and had no negative impact, at least i didn't think so. Now I've hit another case where case-insensitive mailbox names would be useful: +addressing. If I have a mailbox 'Ext' and I send mail to frank+Ext@, the LHS is lowercased to 'frank+ext' and the +extension delivery doesn't find the 'Ext' mailbox. If the +extension is going to be lowercased, then the mailbox names should be lowercased when looking for them. Or, since 'ext' and 'Ext' can co-exist, the +extension shouldn't be lowercased when looking for the mailbox. I prefer the former (lowercase everything), since it's unlikely a user would create both 'mailbox' and 'Mailbox', however I can envision plenty of times where users would try to use '+ext' yet create the '+Ext" mailbox and never be able to figure out why it doesn't work. I know the latter solution (case sensitive extensions and case sensitive mailboxes) is more correct but really it will be harder to debug user problems. -frank

[Dovecot] different views of a imap account
by Ajaxster 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Hi, I've looked around a few times to see if I could figure the answer to this question but I think I may not know the right question to ask... The scenario I have is that I'm running dovecot, exim and procmail on one server (using maildir storage) and also have apache on another server. I can run squirrel mail, roundcube, etc. all on the web server and access all my email just fine. I can run outlook or thunderbird or other imap clients just fine too. I have some smart phones that support imap mail servers, but when I set them up to connect to my server, the client seems to have to sync up data on all the mailboxes (lots of headers to download). All I really want on my remote (phone based) imap clients is to view my inbox. I believe that the subscriptions are done globally in that every client sees the same subscriptions, so that doesn't seem like the way to narrow down what my phone imap clients see. Does what I'd like to do make sense? Is there a way to configure dovecot to support this? Could I just run two servers on the same machine at different ports to support this? I'd love to hear about how others have approached this or similar problems. I've seen a lite email client that can be run on an apache server that wap browsers can access to view mail. That works okay, but with phones having built in imap clients, that seems like a more streamlined way to go ;-) Thanks for you thoughts! -- Jay

Is there a way to limit the amount of maildir folders a user can have? Also is there is hard limit on the amount of folders dovecot can handle? I have a user who has over 3000 folder (including subfolders) that is having issues with delays in loading, moving, and deleting messages. Thanks in advance Jeff N.

[Dovecot] rquota in dovecot-1.2.8-0_103.el5.x86_64.rpm
by David Warden 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Is rquota purposefully not present in the RPM at http://atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot/dovecot-1.2.8-0_103.el5.x86_64.rpm.html ? On a test machine I decided to give dovecot 1.2 a go with that RPM and everything went great except I was getting the following error in the dovecot log (and quota was not working): Dec 9 10:50:43 webmailtest2 dovecot: IMAP(auser) rip=127.0.0.1: quotactl(Q_GETQUOTA, nfsserver.geneseo.edu:/vol/email/users) failed: No such file or directory I had seen some messages on the mailing list talking about making sure you build with HAVE_RQUOTA defined at compile time. I wasn't able to determine if the RPM on the aforementioned page was simply missing the rquota code, but upon building the SRPM from the same place (http://atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot/, SRPM itself is http://dl.atrpms.net/all/dovecot-1.2.8-0_103.src.rpm) I saw HAVE_RQUOTA fly by and the rquota source files get built and linked, and when using those binaries rquota started working. I scanned the changelog for the binary RPM for something indicating that rquota support had been taken out but didn't see anything. Apologies if this is better sent to the package maintainer; I'm hoping he checks this list or someone has already run into this and can set me (and anyone else who may run in to this problem) straight. -David Warden

[Dovecot] More logging for Deliver (eg file name)
by Andrew Hearn 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Hello, I can't see from the wiki if it's possible to log extra information with Deliver - such as the file name it's using to save the message in (Maildir). Currently I get the date, address, ID and folder, eg: Dec 09 12:07:06 deliver(my_address@invalid): Info: msgid=<302ce8b50912090406y634d1340j96ebd54466a2d08b(a)mail.gmail.com>: saved mail to INBOX.Lists.centos Thanks. -- Andrew

[Dovecot] After upgrading to 1.2 - absolute path questions
by Proskurin Kirill 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Hello. I have this: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf: mail_location = maildir:/var/spool/dovecot/domains/%d/%n /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap.conf: user_attrs = mailQuotaSize=quota_rule=*:storage=%$M ,=uid=1002,=gid=1002,=home=/var/spool/dovecot/domains/%d/%n Two absolute paths seems to it is not right(but it works good...) Right way will be: mail_location = maildir:%d/%n =home=/var/spool/dovecot/domains/ ? -- Best regards, Proskurin Kirill

[Dovecot] Different Formats Per User?
by Tony Rutherford 08 Dec '09

08 Dec '09

For migration possibilities, we're considering whether it's possible to have Dovecot run some users using standard Maildir format, while other users would be using filesystem (LAYOUT=fs) format? We could determine which one's users have, but is there a way to tell Dovecot this information, and is it even part of the Dovecot design to deal with this scenario? Thanks, Tony

[Dovecot] DELE before QUIT
by Davy Leon 08 Dec '09

08 Dec '09

Hi folks I'm new to Dovecot. I'm wonderng if it's a way that dovecot delete a message just after the DELE POP3 command and not just mark the message for deletion and wait until the QUIT command is received. The main reason is for slow and unstable links fetching mail this is madness. Any suggestions? David

[Dovecot] permission issue when moving / copying a message
by Jean-Christophe Baptiste 08 Dec '09

08 Dec '09

Hi all, I am having an issue with permission that may be a bug. The issue happens when moving / copying a message from a folder to another : sometimes the message gets the wrong permission (umask). The typical use case is, inside a maildir box and within imap, moving a spam message to the spam folder. Then a cron script is supposed to access to it to feed the antispam database. I wish the message file to be created with umask 0002 but sometimes it creates it with 0022. There is an example in my maildir : # ls -la /home/vmail/domain.com/contact/.spam/cur total 84 drwxrwx--- 2 vmail vmail 4096 déc. 7 23:19 . drwxrwx--- 5 vmail vmail 4096 déc. 7 23:19 .. -rw------- 2 vmail vmail 1303 déc. 7 14:37 1260211373.M462708P12977.genki:2,S -rw-rw---- 2 vmail vmail 73090 juin 8 14:57 1260224357.M884229P14370.genki:2,S As you can see, one file is OK and the other one not. Parents directories have the correct permissions, which should be pushed to the children (according to the doc). With my current configuration, it is something I can reproduce it often but I could not find what exactly triggers it. Thank you in advance for looking at this case and for your help, Regards, -- Jean-Christophe Baptiste <jc(a)phocean.net>

[Dovecot] Mbox corruption
by Erinn Looney-Triggs 07 Dec '09

07 Dec '09

I am trying to track down an mbox corruption issue that has been happening for one of our users. It appears that the mbox file is getting truncated and the all important From line no longer exists which then leads to the mbox being useless. It also appears, as in most truncations, that parts of the mbox are being lost. I am not sure how to debug this to find out whether this is a client or server issue and any pointers would be appreciated. Here are the facts as I have them: Server: RHEL5 x64/ Dovecot 1.2.8 Client: Win/ Thunderbird 2.0.0.23 This appears to only be happening for one user out of several hundred across 30 or so Dovecot servers, so I am leaning towards this being a client issue, but I don't know a great deal about the low level working of IMAP to debug. For example, I assume that the client issues a request to the server on the order of delete message 34 and the server then overwrites the mbox file (this then would point to it being a server issue)? The corruption occurs in a random assortment of this users files, so sometimes the inbox, others the Trash or one of many other folders this user has. The user also reports that before the corruption occurs duplicates of e-mail will start to appear in folders, even folders that have been unused for a long period of time. Oh I suppose I should also mention that this is about the third or fourth time this has happened to this user and it seems to happen about every 2-3 weeks. Does any of this sound familiar to anyone? Any suggestions as to how to root this out? Thanks, -Erinn

They are all running version 1.2.8 and are all configured identically minus compile differences for RHEL4 or 5 and x86 vs. x86_64. So the user is always accessing the same server. It is extremely odd that this issue is happening only to this one user on this one system which still make me lean toward it being a client issue but I am unsure of how to determine that. -Erinn

[Dovecot] virtual domains and SSL certificates
by Dick Middleton 07 Dec '09

07 Dec '09

Hi, This topic has been discussed before e.g: <QUOTE> On 2008-08-07, at 1143, Kacper Wysocki wrote: The problem is that the configuration file specifies only one certificate file for dovecot, which means only one Common Name, which means one cannot provide one server cert that will match mail.foo.com AND mail.bar.com, and either ma...(a)foo.com or bo...(a)bar.com will get a "Security Error: Domain Name Mismatch" in their mail client when connecting through IMAPS. </QUOTE> I bring it up again because I've just been trying the release candidate for Thunderbird 3. This has a config wizard which derives from ones email address the mail server address etc. It doesn't handle SSL virtual mail servers very well because of this problem. I have encountered a web server called Cherokee (http://www.cherokee-project.com) which has virtual server capability that *demands* a different certificate for each virtual server. How can that be I thought? This is what Cherokee documentation says: <QUOTE> SSL Virtual Hosts You might have been told elsewhere that named virtual hosts in SSL cannot be supported without SNI (Server Name Indication) because a web server cannot see the hostname header when the SSL request is being processed. Technically this might have been correct in the past. The first thing that the server has to do is to connect with the other end by using SSL/TLS. The user entered host part of the URI must match the Common Name (CN) provided by the certificate. Since virtual hosts are in use, the CN of the first available certificate may or may not match the one specified in the early stages of TLS negotiation. Cherokee supports the clean and standard method of dealing with this issue called Server Name Indication (SNI) that sends the name of the virtual host during the TLS negotiation. If SNI is supported by your SSL/TLS library, the SSL layer does not need to be restarted. Since the host info can be put in the SSL handshake, things will simply work as long as there is a web browser with SNI support at the other side. Currently every modern web browser supports this, and Cherokee has TLS SNI support for the OpenSSL backends. Note that for SNI to work, client support is required. Web browsers known to support it are Mozilla Firefox 2.0+, Opera 8.0+, Internet Explorer 7 (Vista, not XP) or later and Google Chrome. </QUOTE> If Cherokee can do it why not dovecot? Is this something that is, or could be, being considered? It does assume that TB3 and other mail clients support SNI but whatever, I suspect that once TB3 is released the subject will pop-up more frequently. I'm curious to know the latest thinking. Dick

Then I read about dovecot-shared and tried this. Permissions are now ok but and this is a big but., I have troubles with thunderbird. I copied a folder from an pop3 account to the imap account (Inbox->subfolder). Now all mails are unread. OK i mark all as read. Now I move a message to the inbox and back to the subfolder an wonder, the mail is now marked as unreaded again. When i set up the mailboxes without the dovecot-shared file, the behaviour above is gone!! But my permission problem is back :-( Permissions of dovecot-shared is 750 and the mainfolder is 750 with g+s can anybody help me? thank u alot grz. fr3ak4l

Hi, I've setup dovecot 1.2.7 with dbox mail storage and ALTernative (additional) mail directory + expire plugin and expire_altmove working properly. grep from .conf: ( dbox:/var/spool/mail/%n/MAIL:INDEX=/var/spool/mail/%n/INDEX:ALT=/var/spool/mailarchive/%n/MAIL ) What i would need now is excluding all folders and messages from "ALT" maildir from default view (so they will not show in INBOX and other standard folders. I would like to create namespace or virtual folder and include those ALT maildirs as so called Archive (f.e. prefix). Is that (excluding ALT from default view) possible ? Best Regards, Tomasz Przewlucki

[Dovecot] Light "bug" in authtest, sockets path
by Andre 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Hi to all! I’ve changed position to client auth socket to enable postfix authentication. The socket is now created in /var/spool/postfix/private/auth. authtest do not catch up the change. Reading source I’ve seen that path to auth sockets is written explicitly in function authtest_passdb in util/authtest.c to: if (auth_socket_path == NULL) auth_socket_path = PKG_RUNDIR"/auth-client”; I know I can launch authtest specifing path to socket, but I think it would be better if authtest would parse dovecot.conf and find out where sockets are. I’ve tried to code it by myself, but I’ve had no time to go deep in the code. Is it possible to have this “feature” added??? TIA Andrea

[Dovecot] busy / developers documentation
by Timo Sirainen 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Just thought I'd mention that I probably won't be answering mails very actively this week while I'm in San Antonio (and I was kind of busy last week too). Hopefully I'll get back to answering/bugfixing next week.. I also started writing developers documentation to http://wiki.dovecot.org/Design. Comments welcome. Some things I had planned next: - istream internals - lib-storage API docs - ..?

[Dovecot] Vacation message with Sieve
by Rene Bakkum 02 Dec '09

02 Dec '09

Hello all, I am trying to get my vacation messages to work correctly. In general it works like how I want, and replies when a message is arived to for example info(a)domain.com, but I have some problems to get my vacation message to work on catch-all boxes. Is there an option to for example auto-reply on every mail that is sendto @domain.com? I am using Ubuntu 9.10 default packages, which are the following versions: dovecot -n # 1.1.11: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.31-14-server x86_64 Ubuntu 9.10 ext4 mail_plugins = cmusieve My example file of the vacation message I use is: require ["vacation"]; vacation # Reply at most once a day to a same sender :days [vacationmessage_delay_days] :subject "Autorespond: [vacationmessage_subject]" # List of recipient addresses which are included in the auto replying. # If a mail's recipient is not on this list, no vacation reply is sent for it. :addresses ["[username]@[domain]"] "[vacationmessage_message]"; I tried changing [username]@[domain] into @[domain] or *@[domain], but that is giving me errors. Anyone has any pointers how to achieve this (if its possible at all)... Regards, Rene

[Dovecot] Can't start dovecot from heartbeat
by John Gray 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

I get the following error: Fatal: epoll_create(): Too many open files (you may need to increase /proc/sys/fs/epoll/max_user_instances) Works fine if I start it by hand, I'm guessing it has to due with the environment heart starts it in? My first thought was to do exactly what the message suggests, but my kernel doesn't appear to define max_user_instances, but there is a max_user_watches. I'm running 1.2.8, by the way. But I had a similar problem with earlier version too. John

Hi everybody, I have a problem after configuring dovecot to work with mysql (Debian Etch System). When i send an email from outside, i have an undelivred mail returned to sender saying : Relay access denied (in reply to RCPT TO command) In my dovecot log file i have these errors : --------------------- Nov 28 20:08:27 myhost postfix/smtpd[5087]: connect from smtp5-g21.toto.com [1.2.3.4] Nov 28 20:08:27 myhost postfix/smtpd[5087]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from smtp5-g21.toto.com [1.2.3.4]: 554 5.7.1 <mymail(a)test.com>: Relay access denied; from=<outside-mail(a)toto.com> to=<mymail(a)test.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<smtp5-g21.toto.com> Nov 28 20:08:28 myhost postfix/smtpd[5087]: disconnect from smtp5-g21.toto.com [1.2.3.4] ---------------------- What do you think is the problem ?

[Dovecot] Postfix issue but I want to fix it here...
by david＠davidwbrown.name 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Hello, Dovecot bunch and Timo. I am using Sylpheed as my Dovecot/IMAP client. At home behind my LAN Sylpheed can send email because the Postfix SMTPd views my LAN as a trusted network. No such luck when I'm away from home. I know it has something to do with configuring the relay access elements but what I have tried so far does not work. I'm sure someone has had this simple issue previously. The error condition and other particulars follow: OS: CentOS, Windows XP SMTPd: Postfix 2.3.3 IMAP: Dovecot 1.2 Mail client: Sylpheed 2.7.1 Error condition: Error occurred while sending the message: 554 5.7.1 <messages-noreply(a)linkedin.com>: Relay access denied

[Dovecot] Dovecot SSL limitations
by Thomas Hummel 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Hello Timo, I'd like to check if my understanding of dovecot-1.2.x's SSL certificate handling is correct : SSL does not provide the server any mechanism to choose which certificate it must send relatively to the name the client is using. Thus, if you want to use different certificates, you have to listen to different addresses. This is an SSL limitation, not a dovecot nor IMAP limitation. This is the reason why it's possible to use different certificates for IMAP and POP3. But it seems to work only with those two : As a matter of fact, even if you listen to different addresses, how would you tell dovecot to send this certificate for this address and that certificate for that address, since there is no IP dependent section (as in apache IP-based virtual host for instance) ? It seems the only way would be to have more than one instance of dovecot (several dovecot with different config files). The problem is that some clients may be configured with mail.my.domain, some others with imap.my.domain, ...etc... Hence the need to have different certificates with those different names as cn. -- Thomas Hummel | Institut Pasteur <hummel(a)pasteur.fr> | Pôle informatique - systèmes et réseau

Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2.x masteruser proxy problem
by Tom Mihalicek 30 Nov '09

30 Nov '09

The problem was in auth_bind=yes in dovecot-ldap.conf i didnt read thoroughly the http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers?action=show&redirect=Mas… You should also add the pass=yes setting to the master passdb if possible. It means that Dovecot verifies that the login user really exists before allowing the master user to log in. Without the setting if a non-existing login username is given, depending on the configuration, it could either return an internal login error (the userdb lookup failed) or create a whole new user (with eg. static userdb). pass=yes doesn't work with PAM or LDAP with auth_bind=yes, because both of them require knowing the user's password.
