mmap failed messages in syslog
by Shawn Heisey 10 May '18

10 May '18

I'm getting mmap failed messages in syslog on version 1.2.15 for dovecot.index.cache files. This old dovecot version is installed with debian packages. The OS and all software is 64-bit. I've found info on this log message, with a suggested fix of raising vsz_limit ... but this seems to be a config option for dovecot 2.x, not 1.x. The file it complains about being unable to mmap is only 90MB, and the biggest cache file I have found on the system is only 180MB. The system has 4GB of total memory with about 1GB of that allocated to OS disk cache right now. The mmap functionality provided by the OS doesn't use *actual* memory, so the amount of memory I have should be irrelevant. Checking 'ulimit -a' with several users shows that vmemory is unlimited for all of them. How do I go about allowing docevot 1.x to use more virtual memory? I do have a migration planned to Ubuntu 16, where I can run a 2.x version, but that's not going to happen for a while. Thanks, Shawn

[sieve][regex] Matching multiple strings in the "Received" header
by Adi Pircalabu 08 May '18

08 May '18

Hi, I'm trying to use this expression in Sieve, but for some reason the filter doesn't work: require ["fileinto","regex"]; # rule:[gmail-outlook-yahoo-aol-friends] if header :regex "received" ".from.*(outbound.protection.outlook.com|.google.com|.yahoo.com|mx.aol.com)." { fileinto "INBOX.gmail-hotmail-yahoo-aol-friends"; stop; } However, it's working fine with egrep: egrep ".from.*(outbound.protection.outlook.com|.google.com|.yahoo.com|mx.aol.com)." * 1525657297.M401428P1459.host01.quick.net.au,S=10073,W=10275:2,S:Received: from APC01-PU1-obe.outbound.protection.outlook.com (mail-oln040092254061.outbound.protection.outlook.com [40.92.254.61]) Am I using Sieve correctly here? Is ".from.*(outbound.protection.outlook.com|.google.com|.yahoo.com|mx.aol.com)." expression valid for Sieve? Or do I have to split it in an array as per https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples#Flagging_or_Highlightin… example? Thanks, -- Adi Pircalabu

Released Pigeonhole v0.4.24.rc1 for Dovecot v2.2.36.rc1.
by Stephan Bosch 08 May '18

08 May '18

Hello Dovecot users, Here's a first release candidate for the upcoming Pigeonhole release for Dovecot v2.2.36. It only contains bugfixes for now. There's one experimental plugin still in the pipeline. Changelog v0.4.24: - Fix assert panics triggered by empty messages that are being forwarded using redirect or vnd.dovecot.report. This does not likely normally occur, but this is seen as a result of certain benign failures in object storage. - Make the length of the subject header for the vacation response configurable and enforce the limit in UTF-8 codepoints rather than bytes. The subject header for a vacation response was statically truncated to 256 bytes, which is too limited for multi-byte UTF-8 characters. - Sieve editheader extension: Fix assertion panic occurring when it is used to manipulate a message header with a very large header field. - Properly abort execution of the sieve_discard script upon error. Before, the LDA Sieve plugin attempted to execute the sieve_discard script when an error occurs. This can lead to the message being lost. - Fix the interaction between quota and the sieve_discard script. When quota was used together with a sieve_discard script, the message delivery did not bounce when the quota was exceeded. The release is available as follows: http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.24… http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.24… Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot wiki for more information. Have fun testing this release candidate and don't hesitate to notify me when there are any problems. Regards, -- Stephan Bosch stephan(a)rename-it.nl

Clients connect to the main server only, which is where mail comes in. The second one that experiences the problem with locking is only a redundant server which is a secondary MX, that only gets occasional SMTP deliveries from time to time. So the amount of replication back from the "secondary" is very minimal; the vast bulk of the replication is the primary replicating changes out. Reuben

v2.2.36 release candidate released
by Timo Sirainen 04 May '18

04 May '18

https://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2.36.rc1.tar.gz https://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2.36.rc1.tar.gz.sig v2.2.36 is hopefully going to be the last v2.2.x release. Please test this RC well, so we'll have a good final release! v2.3.2 is still going to take a couple of months before it's ready. * login-proxy: If ssl_require_crl=no, allow revoked certificates. Also don't do CRL checks for incoming client certificates. * stats plugin: Don't temporarily enable PR_SET_DUMPABLE while opening /proc/self/io. This may still cause security problems if the process is ptrace()d at the same time. Instead, open it while still running as root. + doveadm: Added mailbox cache decision&remove commands. See doveadm-mailbox(1) man page for details. + doveadm: Added rebuild attachments command for rebuilding $HasAttachment or $HasNoAttachment flags for matching mails. See doveadm-rebuild(1) man page for details. - dsync: Lock file generation failed if home directory didn't exist - Snippet generation for HTML mails didn't ignore &entities inside blockquotes, producing strange looking snippets. - imapc: Fix assert-crash if getting disconnected and after reconnection all mails in the selected mailbox are gone. - pop3c: Handle unexpected server disconnections without assert-crash - fts: If mails contained NUL characters, the text around it wasn't indexed. - Obsolete dovecot.index.cache offsets were sometimes used. Trying to fetch a field that was just added to cache file may not have always found it.

expiring mail from root's Maildirs?
by ＠lbutlr 04 May '18

04 May '18

I would like to delete old mail from root's sent mailbox but doveadm throws errors when I try to do this, not wanting to process root's mail at all (I am running the commands as root, naturally) # doveadm expunge -u root mailbox Sent SENTBEFORE 1-Apr-2018 doveadm(root): Error: Invalid settings in userdb: userdb returned 0 as uid doveadm(root): Error: User lookup failed: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information. The error makes me think this is intentional, and I can see that makes a sort of sense, but it still leaves me with a Sent box that grow forever until I manually go in and remove old mails. I am using passed for userdb and pam for passdb: passdb { username_filter = "!*@*" driver = pam } userdb { driver = passwd } Can I do this with doveadm or am going to have to resort to either manually removing the mail (hah!) or just crontabbing a task to remove the files more than 30 days old?

Use of NO-NOSELECT in mail_location
by Joseph Tam 03 May '18

03 May '18

I enabled NO-NOSELECT in mail_location as it seemed to be an optimization without negative consequences. The wiki states NO-NOSELECT : Automatically delete any \NoSelect mailboxes that have no children. These mailboxes are sometimes confusing to users. Also if a \NoSelect mailbox is attempted to be created with "CREATE box/", it's created as selectable mailbox instead. The last sentence is important: if you allow this, you won't be able to create folders (i.e. directories); this caught me offguard. If you use mbox, this is something you don't want to enable.

v2.3.1: Event leaked (parent=(nil)): http-client.c:137 and 439
by Milan Knížek 03 May '18

03 May '18

Hi, After upgrade to dovecot 2.3.1, many IMAP clients cause errors in dovecot log: May 01 20:15:51 tiger dovecot[21985]: imap: Warning: Event 0x555fd3c01630 leaked (parent=(nil)): http-client.c:137 May 01 20:15:51 tiger dovecot[21985]: imap: Warning: Event 0x555fd3c00140 leaked (parent=(nil)): http-client.c:439 Namely: * roundcube 1.3.3 * offlineimap * nextcloud mail app Despite the errors, the basic functionality seems to work - mails are received by the client. However, the GUI clients display an "internal server error" message window on each refresh. Some other clients do not create any issues: * MailDroid (Android) * getmail Anybody got a similar behaviour? -- Milan Knížek | knizek.confy(a)gmail.com

Hello Dovecoters, I am using dovecot-2.2.10-8.el7.x86_64 on RHEL 7.4 When I backup mdboxes (using SIS) using this command doveadm -Dv -o plugin/quota= sync -1f -u user1(a)user.com mdbox:/mailbackup/user1 mails get backedup but all m files are not copied. Last file copied is m.4 If I run the command again I get below error I tried with doveadm backup command as well (many times). Error: Corrupted dbox file / mailbackup/user1/storage/m.4 (around offset=3732536): EOF reading msg header (got 0/30 bytes) Result is all mails are not backedup.

Listening on multiple ports
by Derek Harding 28 Apr '18

28 Apr '18

Hi, I want dovecot to listen for imaps (ssl) on both 993 and a non-standard port 8839. I've tried using variations on the inet_listener entries in 10-master.conf as shown in a couple of threads on here but none of the attempts have worked. Can someone provide me with a cut-and-paste solution and confirm into which file it should be placed (i.e. is the dovecot.conf format using the inet_listener = {address} appropriate)? -- Best wishes, Derek

Virtual mailbox doesn't refresh without deleting indexes
by Bret Martin 26 Apr '18

26 Apr '18

Hello, I have a virtual mailbox with the following dovecot-virtual file: mdbox/* -mdbox/Archive/* -mdbox/Junk -mdbox/Notes all younger 604800 not deleted This works at first, but after messages are older than 7 days, they continue to appear in this mailbox forever. Even if I close all IMAP clients and reconnect, I can't get the mailbox to omit the older-than-7-days messages without deleting its indexes. I have other virtual mailboxes that update as expected, but I don't think any of those are date-based. For example, this one "refreshes" as I'd expect: mdbox/* -mdbox/Archive/* -mdbox/Junk flagged Am I doing something wrong with the first virtual mailbox I mentioned above? I'm using dovecot 2.2.13 on Debian GNU/Linux. Thanks! --Bret

director stuck in inifite loop on 2.2.35
by Jan-Pieter Cornet 26 Apr '18

26 Apr '18

Occasionally, all of our directors get stuck in an endless loop. Likely triggered by some network event, but I haven't been able to isolate exactly what triggers it, and am unable to reproduce at the moment. When this happens, it makes the dovecot/director process on all directors unresponsive, making login impossible. Restarting dovecot "fixes" it. Here's the info collected from the stuck process. I hope that a dovecot dev could use this to either fix a bug in the async IO code or point to a possible external source that could have triggered this. Would it help to compile dovecot with -g and run a version with debugging info, to be able to inspect more when the crash happens again?

replication and .dovecot.lda-dupes
by Patrick Cernko 25 Apr '18

25 Apr '18

Hi list, this question was already posted a few years ago (https://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-November/098585.html) I already asked the original queriest and he told me, that he never got an solution or workaround but it was not important enough for him. When using replication in conjunction with sieve vacations, the .dovecot.lda-dupes file is not synced with the other server. So when delivering to both servers (round-robin or randomized), senders might get more vacation mails than configured as the other server does not know, that the first one already sent a vacation message. Is this a bug or intentional? If it is a bug, I hereby ask for a fix, please. We are using Dovecot version 2.2.27 on Debian/stretch. This is dovecot -n (hostnames anonymized): # 2.2.27 (c0f36b0): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) # OS: Linux 4.9.76.1.amd64-smp x86_64 Debian 9.3 auth_verbose = yes default_vsz_limit = 2 G doveadm_password = # hidden, use -P to show it doveadm_port = 12345 listen = * login_log_format_elements = pid=%p user=<%u> method=%m rip=%r lip=%l mpid=%e %c mail_attachment_dir = /IMAP/mail/attachments mail_attachment_fs = sis-queue /IMAP/mail/attachments/queue:posix mail_home = /IMAP/mail/mailboxes/%u mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox mail_log_prefix = "%s(%u[%p]): " mail_max_userip_connections = 0 mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat" maildir_stat_dirs = yes managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate mime foreverypart extracttext namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf driver = ldap } plugin { fts = squat fts_autoindex = yes fts_squat = partial=4 full=10 mail_replica = tcp:other-server sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve zlib_save = gz zlib_save_level = 3 } postmaster_address = <> protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service aggregator { fifo_listener replication-notify-fifo { mode = 0666 } unix_listener replication-notify { mode = 0666 } } service anvil { client_limit = 2250 } service auth { client_limit = 2447 } service doveadm { inet_listener doveadm-server { port = 12345 } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } process_limit = 2047 } service imap { process_limit = 2047 } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { port = 24 } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 0 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 0 } } service replicator { process_min_avail = 1 unix_listener replicator-doveadm { mode = 0666 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certificate.pem ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/userdb.overrides driver = passwd-file } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf driver = ldap } verbose_proctitle = yes protocol lmtp { auth_username_format = %n mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat sieve" } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat sieve" } And this is /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf (hostnames anonymized): uris = ldaps://ldap1/ ldaps://ldap2/ base = dc=domain user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) user_attrs = \ =user=%{ldap:uid}, \ =uid=%{ldap:uidNumber}, \ =gid=%{ldap:gidNumber} pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) iterate_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(istMailHomeServer=servername)) auth_bind = yes /etc/dovecot/userdb.override is currently an empty file. P.S.: Although I do not think, that this has something to do with our problem, I should mention that we run SIS with system uids. This needs some permission and posixacl tweaks on /IMAP/mail/attachments to work: # force all files created in this dir recursively) to have mode 0666 setfacl -d -m group::rwx -m o:rwx /IMAP/mail/attachments (you have to enable posixacls for the corresponding filesystem!) # trick dovecot to inherit parent dir's permissions (recursively) chmod 2777 /IMAP/mail/attachments Feel free to add these tweaks to the SIS documentation. ;-) Best Regards, -- Patrick Cernko <pcernko(a)mpi-klsb.mpg.de> +49 681 9325 5815 Joint Administration: Information Services and Technology Max-Planck-Institute fuer Informatik & Softwaresysteme

dovecot HA setup across large geographic distances
by Sophie Loewenthal 24 Apr '18

24 Apr '18

Hi, I have a working postfix/dovecot config on Debian located in Europe[EU]. I would like to provide either an HA/load balanced setup with a second site in Australia[AU] because of users located between EU/Asia/AU. The site to site traffic would be tunneled through either SSH or a VPN * Has this been done with Doevcot over such great distances? * How can the delay between mailstore synchonisation be handled? ( Currently looking for an opensource product like Netex's HyperIP) I'd be grateful for your thoughts. Best wishes, Sophie Sent from a phone, thus brief.

Pass UniqueID to sieve scripts
by Peter Blok 24 Apr '18

24 Apr '18

Hi, If a user moves a mail to a Junk folder, this e-mail is going thru imap_sieve and ends up in sa-learn. I wrote some tools to immediately propagate that to the other node of the cluster as well as locally. Everything works fine, but sometimes I see a storm of requests hogging the CPU and I would like to collect some debugging information, Preferably I would like the permanent unique id of the mail in the maildir, but am looking for some kind of unique id that will help me identify if an e-mail somehow passes the sieve filter multiple times. Basically I have changed the pipe to sa-learn to my proxy that will send it across to the other node as well as call sa-learn locally. So something I can get in a sieve script and pass along. Peter
