ssl_dh
by sergio 16 Mar '19

16 Mar '19

https://wiki.dovecot.org/SSL/DovecotConfiguration says: "Since v2.3.3+ Diffie-Hellman parameters have been made optional, and you are encouraged to disable non-ECC DH algorithms completely." and a bit later: "From version 2.3, you must specify path to DH parameters file using ssl_dh=</path/to/dh.pem" So. 1. Is ssl_dh an optional or a must? 2. I've disabled ssl_dh in my config. Dovecot works fine except it shows warnings: doveconf: Warning: please set ssl_dh=</etc/dovecot/dh.pem doveconf: Warning: You can generate it with: dd ... I'm using dovecot version 2.3.4.1-1~bpo9+1 from debian stretch-backports -- sergio.

regarding ssl certificates
by mick crane 15 Mar '19

15 Mar '19

Excuse dopey question. I'm not exactly clear about certificates. Apache2 default install has this snake oil certificate Can make a new one for apache Can make one for dovecot Can make one for ssl Is there supposed to be the one (self signed ) certificate pair in one place for the machine that each process hands out ? Can they be moved to another machine ? mick -- Key ID C7D6E24C

lua policy for Weakforce and web mail failed login attempts
by Robert Kudyba 15 Mar '19

15 Mar '19

The good news is I believe I got Weakforce running 1) curl -X GET http://127.0.0.1:8084/?command=ping -u wforce:ourpassword {"status":"ok"}[ 2) after running the sample for loop: for a in {1..101}; do curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"login":"ahu", "remote": "127.0.0.1", "pwhash":"1234'$a'", "success":"false"}' http://127.0.0.1:8084/?command=report -u wforce:ourpassword; done The result is: {"status":"ok"}{"status":"ok"}{"status":"ok"}{ 3) So checking the stats: curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"ip":"127.0.0.1"}' http://127.0.0.1:8084/?command=getDBStats -u wforce:ourpassword {"bl_expire": "", "bl_reason": "", "blacklisted": false, "ip": "127.0.0.1", "stats": {"OneHourDB": {"diffFailedPasswords": 93}}} Notice the 93. 4) the reset works but I believe there's a bug in Getdbstats v2.0.0 where "blacklisted" is always shown: curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"ip":"127.0.0.1"}' http://127.0.0.1:8084/?command=getDBStats -u wforce:ourpassword {"bl_expire": "", "bl_reason": "", "blacklisted": false, "ip": "127.0.0.1", "stats": {"OneHourDB": {"diffFailedPasswords": 0}}}[ 5) wforce -c Read configuration from '/usr/local/etc/wforce.conf' Connecting to 127.0.0.1:4004 > stats() 101 reports, 0 allow-queries (0 denies) The 3 big questions I have: a: how do I know IP's are being banned/rejected? Is there an alert creation or a way to see in the logs that the rules are in affect? b: since I installed via Git and ran "make" how to I get wforce --daemon to start on reboot? Is there a systemd file available? c: How do I create a lua policy that would catch these web dovecot login attempts?

Double quota calulation when special folder is present
by Bernd Wurst 15 Mar '19

15 Mar '19

Hello, we're operating dovecot on a small server. Some years ago, we migrated from courier IMAP to dovecot. Therefore, we defined our default Namespace "inbox" with prefix "INBOX." to have this compatible. I found this in some migration docs those days. Generally, everything worked as expected. Our only namespace is configured like this: namespace inbox { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes } Regularly, there is no folder named INBOX or .INBOX in the file system, I suppose this is correct. But I found a special corner case today when it comes to quota calculation. When - for whatever reason - a folder .INBOX.foo (for arbitrary values of foo) exists, the whole mailbox is counted twice in quota recalculation. Just creating .INBOX does nothing but a subfolder triggers the problem. This is my shell view (replaced username and file path and deleted unnecessary debug output) $ cat maildirsize 268435456S 14697 17 $ maildirmake .INBOX.foo $ sudo doveadm -D quota recalc -u <user> [...] doveadm(<user>): Debug: Namespace inbox: type=private, prefix=INBOX., sep=., inbox=yes, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=maildir:/home/.../test doveadm(<user>): Debug: maildir++: root=/home/.../test, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=/home/.../test, alt= doveadm(<user>): Debug: Namespace : type=private, prefix=, sep=, inbox=no, hidden=yes, list=no, subscriptions=no location=fail::LAYOUT=none doveadm(<user>): Debug: none: root=, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=, alt= doveadm(<user>): Debug: quota: quota_over_flag check: quota_over_script unset - skipping doveadm(<user>): Debug: Quota root User quota: Recalculated relative rules with bytes=268435456 count=0. Now grace=26843545 doveadm(<user>): Debug: Namespace INBOX.: Using permissions from /home/.../test: mode=0700 gid=default $ cat maildirsize 268435456S 29394 34 So the used quota has exactly been doubled by just creating an empty subfolder. Do you have any pointers for fixing my configuration or is this a bug in dovecot? regards, Bernd

Upgrading to 2.3
by ＠lbutlr 15 Mar '19

15 Mar '19

I haven't upgraded to dovecot 2.3 yet, but am looking into doing it. I thought there was a link to some of the issues and changes you needed to make to your configuration to go from 2.2 to 2.3, but now I cannot find it. -- Science is the foot that kicks magic square in the nuts.

ACL Folders are open but not being displayed ? [2.3.3]
by Kunal A. 15 Mar '19

15 Mar '19

Hey, Could someone help figure out whats wrong with my config based on the debug below? What I am trying to achieve is to get email1(a)example.com to read emails in the Public directory that is stored on /run/media/computer/Storage/Email/fastmail/Archive with the preface Public/Archive . The ACL has been set for anyone with permissions to lookup,read,write as shown below:- doveadm acl get -u email1(a)example.com Public/Archive ID Global Rights anyone lookup read write But when I try to access the emails for email1(a)example.com , there are no folders. Could someone here help review my debug log and advise what could be causing this (dovecot -n output is provided below the debug message) Many thanks for assistance.

dovecot.conf "local hostname" uses only one resolved value
by James 14 Mar '19

14 Mar '19

https://wiki.dovecot.org/SSL/DovecotConfiguration#Different_certificates_pe… says: local 192.0.2.10 { # instead of IP you can also use hostname, which will be resolved However if the name resolves to multiple values only one is used. Test. Choose any name with multiple values, I created a local name: $ nslookup multi.lan Server: 127.0.0.1 Address: 127.0.0.1#53 Name: multi.lan Address: 192.168.1.2 Name: multi.lan Address: 192.168.1.3 Name: multi.lan Address: 192.168.1.1 Minimal dovecot.conf: local multi.lan { protocol imap { ssl_cert = </path/to/certs/multi.lan.crt ssl_key = </path/to/certs/multi.lan.key } } $ dovecot -n -c dovecot.conf # 2.3.5 (513208660): dovecot.conf ... local 192.168.1.2 { protocol imap { ssl_cert = </path/to/certs/multi.crt ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it } } Only 192.168.1.2 appears. In my real case with A and AAAA records, only the AAAA record is used. Testing with "openssl s_client -starttls imap ..." gives me the wrong certificate for the IPv4 address. Workaround: specify all addresses and do not use lookup. James.

dovecot/config processes one more time - which are safe to kill?
by Arkadiusz Miśkiewicz 14 Mar '19

14 Mar '19

Hello. The problem with dovecot/config processes never ending and spawning new one on each reload (https://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2016-November/106058.html) is becoming a problem here: # ps aux|grep dovecot/config|wc -l 206 That's a lot of wasted memory - dovecot/config processes ate over 30GB of ram on 64GB box. Before killing dovecot/config processes: # free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 64437 61656 483 0 2297 after: # free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 64437 23676 37822 0 2939 Currently on dovecot 2.3.3. I guess it's very low priority to handle that, so: how can I figure out which dovecot/config processes are safe to be killed by external script? Does "all beside 2 newest ones" rule look sane? Thanks, -- Arkadiusz Miśkiewicz, arekm / ( maven.pl | pld-linux.org )

Quota questions
by Peter Hudec 14 Mar '19

14 Mar '19

Hi all, I’m a little bit confused about the quota plugin in dovecot and fighting the the issues the people had years ago. I spent readingg the old archives and the mailing list for 3 days and not able to get work some features. Single user quota is fine and simple, the group quota /for example domain based/ makes me unhappy. Setup: CentOS7, dovecot comunity repo, dovecot 2.3.5 1) domain quota recalc domain quota recalc do not work properly. The domain qouta usage is worknig well, hwhen receiving/deleting mail, generaly if the operations are incremental. But if I run domain quota recalc, the doveadm is setting the domain quota after each user calculation, that means the domain quota is set to the last user. 2) multiple quota roots and rules According the documentation, there could be possible, from the sample configuration file # Multiple quota roots are also possible, for example this gives each user # their own 100MB quota and one shared 1GB quota within the domain plugin { quota = dict:User quota::proxy::quota quota2 = dict:Group quota:%d:proxy::quota_domain quota_rule = *:storage=1024M quota2_rule = *:storage=2048M } But If I run [TEST] root(a)mail-store01.test.host.sk: /etc/dovecot # doveadm quota get -u '*' Username Quota name Type Value Limit % test01(a)test.host.sk User quota STORAGE 1 1024 0 test01(a)test.host.sk User quota MESSAGE 1 - 0 test01(a)test.host.sk Group quota STORAGE 7 - 0 test01(a)test.host.sk Group quota MESSAGE 3 - 0 test03(a)test.host.sk User quota STORAGE 7 1024 0 test03(a)test.host.sk User quota MESSAGE 3 - 0 test03(a)test.host.sk Group quota STORAGE 7 - 0 test03(a)test.host.sk Group quota MESSAGE 3 - 0 The idea is to have overall domain quota, but for user able to set it’s personal quota. regards Peter

replication dropped imap flags
by Patrick Cernko 14 Mar '19

14 Mar '19

Hi list, I think, I found a bug in the replication setup, that drops (custom) flags like Thunderbird labels. I have set up a simple 2 node setup to reproduce and explain it: Host adove.mpi-klsb.mpg.de and bdove.mpi-klsb.mpg.de (doveconf -n attached) have dovecot-imapd (from repo.dovecot.org) installed on an ext4 filesystem. They only have one account "test" via /etc/dovecot/userdb ("test:testpassword:::Test User::/bin/bash:"). It's mailbox contains one message, that is flagged with "$label1": doveadm -f flow fetch -u test 'guid flags' ALL guid=d1516a2b5c08fc5b541d00005a350039 flags=\Recent $label1 Now I simulate a node reinstall on adove by uninstalling dovecot, removing all remnants, reinstalling and configuring it again: apt purge dovecot-core dovecot-imapd rm -rf /var/vmail /var/lib/dovecot /etc/dovecot apt install dovecot-imapd # disable system auth : > /etc/dovecot/conf.d/auth-system.conf.ext # create /var/vmail install -d -o nobody -g nogroup -m 700 /var/vmail # create userdb echo 'test:testpassword:::Test User::/bin/bash:' > /etc/dovecot/userdb # create /etc/dovecot/local.conf # not described here, the resulting doveconf -n is attached! service dovecot restart When I check the flags of the mail of user test now, the "$label1" is disapeared on both machines, even after "doveadm replicator replicate -f test": doveadm -f flow fetch -u test 'guid flags' ALL guid=d1516a2b5c08fc5b541d00005a350039 flags=\Recent Any hints what I am doing wrong here or is this really a bug?

Am I right to assume certificate renewal with the same filename requires a dovecot reload/restart
by Guido Goluke, MajorLabel 14 Mar '19

14 Mar '19

Running dovecot 2.2, apologies if this question has been asked before: I've done the research but couldn't find anything. I run a server that uses dovecot as a MUA for Postfix and have a Let's Encrypt certificate that auto-renews through certbot on Ubuntu server 16.04. Dovecot did not pick up on the new certificate for the hostname. It did after a restart. To be clear: Let's Encrypt overwrites the previous certificate using the same path and filename. Am I right to assume that Dovecot needs a reload/restart after the certificate has been renewed in order to 'pick up' on the new certificate and if so, would I require a reload or a restart? Thank you in advance -- MajorLabel

recipient bcc and dovecot
by ＠lbutlr 13 Mar '19

13 Mar '19

I have a recipient_bcc_maps which contains a bcc map that is updated everyday: rbcc.pcre: if !/backup.*@/ /^([^+_]*).*(a)([^.]*)/ backup+071.${1}-${2}(a)adomain.tld endif the 071 portion is changed each day to the current day of the year. Everything works, but I get an error from dovecot on every message: lda(backup(a)adomain.tld): Error: User initialization failed: Namespace '': Ambiguous mail location setting, don't know what to do with it: /usr/local/virtual/backup(a)adomain.tld (try prefixing it with mbox: or maildir:) The mail is delivered two the right directory anyway, but after a temporary failure. I'd like to eliminate the error. the backup user is not a 'real' user (it is not in the lookup map) so should I bypass dovecot entirely in delivering these messages? (and if so, how) If not, where/how would I add the prefix maildir: Is there something I can add to dovecot to specifically deal with messages coming in to backup(a)adomain.tld and add the maildir: specification there? (Still on dovecot 2.2.35) -- And sometimes there's a short cut. A door or a gate. Some standing stones. A tree cleft by lightning, a filing cabinet. Maybe just a spot on some moorland somewhere... A place where THERE is very nearly HERE... If some people knew where such a spot was, if they had experience of what happens when here and there become entangled, then they might - if they knew how - mark such a spot with certain stones. In the hope that enough daft buggers would take it as a warning and keep away. (Lords and Ladies)

sieve vacation to an alias group
by Monis Monther 13 Mar '19

13 Mar '19

Hi, We have an alias group named xyz(a)example.com, this alias group has 3 actual users a(a)example.com, b(a)example.com and c(a)example.com We set vacation rule on the generic sieve rule, the problem is that 3 responses are sent to the original sender. (obviously because the rule is being executed with each user in the alias group) Is it possible to set auto response only once, we tried the ( :days 1) option but still all 3 respond back. How can such a setup be achieved. (Single auto response to an alias group) CentOS 7.5 dovecot-pigeonhole-2.3.4.1-1.x86_64 dovecot-2.3.4.1-1.x86_64 postfix 2.10-1 -- Best Regards Monis

Delayed flags changes over IDLE
by Kostya Vasilyev 13 Mar '19

13 Mar '19

Hello, I'm experiencing slow flags changes over IMAP IDLE: - If I start an IDLE session / command - Change the flags of some messages via another email app - Dovecot can take a minute or more to notify the IDLE connection about flags changes If I use another email app to add or remove a message, Dovecot sends that (EXISTS / EXPUNGE) instantly and also flushes the (so far delayed) flags changes. So it does "know" already. The system is Debian Testing, 64 bit, file system is ext4. Dovecot is 2.3.4.1 (f79e8e7e4) - I believe from Debian repos (I had Dovecot's own repo added at some point, disabled now). My mail is stored under ~/mail/.imap (not sure what this format is called), I mean not "single file mbox". I have not changed any IDLE related config settings: doveconf | grep -i idle default_idle_kill = 1 mins director_ping_idle_timeout = 30 secs imap_idle_notify_interval = 2 mins imapc_max_idle_time = 29 mins mailbox_idle_check_interval = 30 secs What can I do to make Dovecot notify IDLE clients about flags changes - more quickly? Preferably near-instant? -- Kostya Vasilyev kman(a)fastmail.com

“doveadm mailbox” command fails with UTF-8 mailboxes
by Felipe Gasper 13 Mar '19

13 Mar '19

Hello, I’ve got a strange misconfiguration where the following command: doveadm -f pager mailbox status -u spamutf8 'messages vsize guid' INBOX 'INBOX.*' … fails with error code 68, saying that it can’t find one of the mailboxes. (It lists the user’s other mailboxes.) The name of the mailbox in question is saved to disk in UTF-8 rather than mUTF-7, but strace shows that doveadm is stat()ing the mUTF-7 path; the failure of that stat() is, assumedly, what causes doveadm to report the error status. I’ve tried to paw through the source code to see what might be causing this but haven’t made much headway. Can someone here point out where the misconfiguration might be that is causing doveadm to stat() the mUTF-7 path rather than UTF-8? Or perhaps offer any tips as to how I might diagnose what’s going on? What causes doveadm to stat() one path or the other? Thank you! -Felipe Gasper Mississauga, ON

Inbox quota usage doubled when mailbox_list_index enabled, under some circumstances
by Chris Dillon 13 Mar '19

13 Mar '19

Hello, I searched through the list archives for anything that appeared to be similar to this but I didn't find any good matches. I apologize if this has been brought up before. Beginning with Dovecot 2.2.34, reported quota usage of a user's inbox can be doubled when the following criteria are met: 1) quota plugin is enabled 2) mailbox_list_index=yes 3) A sub-folder of the inbox exists whose name also matches the prefix (for example, "INBOX.Test"), even if that folder has no contents. (Apparently, some mail clients such as K-9 Mail on Android can create these folders automatically) Downgrading to 2.2.33.2 allows this configuration to work normally. I looked through the changes in git between 2.2.33.2 and 2.2.34 and they appeared extensive, so unfortunately I wasn't able to pinpoint a specific change that caused this. Reproduced on a CentOS 7 server with Dovecot 2.2.34 built from git sources according to https://wiki2.dovecot.org/CompilingSource#Compiling_Dovecot_From_Git using the following minimal configuration: ========== root@centos7 [~]# dovecot -n # 2.2.34 (874deae): /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.10.0-862.9.1.el7.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core) # Hostname: centos7.local mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_plugins = quota mailbox_list_index = yes namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = prefix = INBOX. separator = . } passdb { driver = pam } plugin { quota = maildir:Mailbox } userdb { driver = passwd } ========== With the system user "myuser" and a minimal Maildir setup containing 1 email in the inbox, and one sub-folder named "INBOX.Test": ========== root@centos7 [~]# ls -lAR /home/myuser/Maildir /home/myuser/Maildir: total 4 drwxr-xr-x. 2 myuser myuser 77 Jul 25 09:36 cur drwxr-xr-x. 5 myuser myuser 56 Jul 25 15:19 .INBOX.Test -rw-r--r--. 1 myuser myuser 14 Jul 25 15:19 maildirsize drwxr-xr-x. 2 myuser myuser 6 Jul 25 09:36 new drwxr-xr-x. 2 myuser myuser 6 Jul 25 09:36 tmp /home/myuser/Maildir/cur: total 12416 -rw-r--r--. 1 myuser myuser 12712627 Jul 25 09:07 1532529376.M543965P58007.centos7.local,S=12712627,W=12877782:2,S /home/myuser/Maildir/.INBOX.Test: total 0 drwxr-xr-x. 2 myuser myuser 6 Jul 25 09:36 cur -rw-r--r--. 1 myuser myuser 0 Jul 25 09:36 maildirfolder drwxr-xr-x. 2 myuser myuser 6 Jul 25 09:36 new drwxr-xr-x. 2 myuser myuser 6 Jul 25 09:36 tmp /home/myuser/Maildir/.INBOX.Test/cur: total 0 /home/myuser/Maildir/.INBOX.Test/new: total 0 /home/myuser/Maildir/.INBOX.Test/tmp: total 0 /home/myuser/Maildir/new: total 0 /home/myuser/Maildir/tmp: total 0 ========== Given this configuration, when "mailbox_list_index" is enabled, after quota recalculation, quota reports that there are 2 messages and that double the amount of storage is used: ========== root@centos7 [~]# doveadm quota recalc -u myuser; doveadm quota get -u myuser Quota name Type Value Limit % Mailbox STORAGE 24830 - 0 Mailbox MESSAGE 2 - 0 ========== When "mailbox_list_index" is disabled and quota is recalculated, it will report the message and storage counts correctly: ========== root@centos7 [~]# doveadm -o 'mailbox_list_index=no' quota recalc -u myuser; doveadm quota get -u myuser Quota name Type Value Limit % Mailbox STORAGE 12415 - 0 Mailbox MESSAGE 1 - 0 ========== I am hoping that someone with much more familiarity with the code path involved here could take a look at this issue and possibly submit a fix for it -- that would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if you need any more details regarding the replication steps, though I hope that I didn't miss anything.

Crash in director for secure lmtp proxy connections
by Marcus Fenner 13 Mar '19

Hi, After updating some of our director servers from 2.2.36 to 2.3.3 (dcead646b) we experience crashes in about 1/5000 mails in lmtp delivery: Nov 13 12:23:36 Fatal: lmtp(113620): master: service(lmtp): child 113620 killed with signal 6 (core dumped) Nov 13 12:23:36 Panic: lmtp(113623): file ostream-dot.c: line 208 (o_stream_dot_sendv): assertion failed: ((size_t)ret == sent + added) Nov 13 12:23:36 Error: lmtp(113623): Raw backtrace: /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xe34fb) [0x7f31d89134fb] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xe3597) [0x7f31d8913597] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x51207) [0x7f31d8881207] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x4eeef) [0x7f31d887eeef] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x107cf8) [0x7f31d8937cf8] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(o_stream_sendv+0x32) [0x7f31d89382c2] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_stream_copy+0x5a) [0x7f31d8938b6a] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(o_stream_send_istream+0x53) [0x7f31d8938873] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(smtp_client_command_send_more+0x145) [0x7f31d8890805] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x660dd) [0x7f31d88960dd] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libssl_iostream_openssl.so(+0xa7e1) [0x7f31d864a7e1] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x10a558) [0x7f31d893a558] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x73) [0x7f31d892a203] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run_internal+0x136) [0x7f31d892b8b6] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0x50) [0x7f31d892a2b0] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x48) [0x7f31d892a418] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(master_service_run+0x17) [0x7f31d88a95a7] -> dovecot/lmtp(main+0x245) [0x555b8b59cea5] -> /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf3) [0x7f31d867c413] -> dovecot/lmtp(_start+0x2e) [0x555b8b59cfbe] Nov 13 12:23:36 Fatal: lmtp(113623): master: service(lmtp): child 113623 killed with signal 6 (core dumped) On the backend servers the only message is lmtp(9571): Disconnect from 192.168.1.56: Connection closed (in DATA) This happens for every server with this version every time postfix tries to resend the mail. After removing "starttls=y" from the static passdb entry, the mail is sent successfully. Starting with version 2.3.2 the lmtp proxy uses starttls as well, therefore the error seems to be there. I've not been able to figure out, if this has to do with the content of the mails, because they are from many different sources. Thanks! Marcus
