Can I disable PAM auth if all my username/password lookups are via a database connection? I would love to get rid of the following lines in my logs... Oct 17 14:32:14 auth-worker(7809): Info: pam(xxx-xxx-xxx,111.111.111.111,<sdfhgsdfgsd>): pam_authenticate() failed: Authentication failure (password mismatch?) Cheers.

Limit the nuumber of mails POPped at a time
by K F 17 Oct '17

17 Oct '17

Hi All I'm completely new to the world of Dovecot, so please bear with me if this is a simple noob question (which I fer it is :-) ) I have a postfix/dovecot setup for handling specific mails for clients. I have a piece of software with a mailclient that has problems when it POP's large amounts of mail. Unfortunately the system can't be updated or fixed.So I'm trying to figure out if I can limit the number of mails that can be seen via Dovecot. The procedure would be likeThe client connects. Dovecot limits the number of mails to 300. The client fetches and deletes the POPped mails immediately after retreivel.Next time it POPs it has the next batch. So it would be a question of always presenting a maximum of 300 mails via the POP3.Is it doable? Dovecot is version 2.2.10Server is a CentOS 7. Best regardsK

Fast replication
by ＠4OS 17 Oct '17

17 Oct '17

Hi, I'm trying to get replication to work with a 2 machines setup. So far full replication is happening at the specified interval (24hrs) without problem but fast sync is not happening. The fast sync counter is always equal to full sync unless i exec dsync manually. doveadm replicator status '*' username priority fast sync full sync success sync failed johndoe(a)oricom.dmz none 00:06:33 00:06:33 00:21:33 - johndoe2(a)oricom.dmz none 00:06:34 00:06:34 00:06:34 - johndoe3(a)oricom.dmz none 00:06:34 00:06:34 00:06:34 - The fast replication part is not clear and i cannot find much about it. There is nothing related with dovecot -a and the documentation does not say much about it. How the fast replication is triggered? Manually or it is supposed to be automatic through some type of config. Some light over this would help me understand the way it work and how to get it setup right. yves

Anyone had any experience they can share using a director setup with NFS and using the mdbox format instead of maildir. Is locking an issue on index files ?? rgds Matt -- <https://www.postbox-inc.com/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=siglink&utm_campai…>

Trash plugin unexpected results
by Stephan Herker 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

I have the trash plugin enabled and testing it out I had an account with a 30MB quota. In the accounts trash it had an email with a large attachment. I sent the same email again to the account expecting the trash plugin to purge the message from trash to make space for the new message in the inbox. However I got an error saying it couldn't remove enough trash to make space. This behavior seems unexpected because it seems like the trash plugin didn't account for the quota and size available. Debug logs and dovecot -n output below.

SSL overview...
by SH Development 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

Can someone help me understand the overall picture of SSL certificates in this scenario? I have a working dovecot/postfix/mysql server. It has a certificate. I now want to create a second, essentially duplicate configured server for use with replication. What is the relationship between the certificate and the hostname, or the DNS entry since the certs are created using the server’s domain name? mail.serverA.mydomain has a certificate that was created using mail.serverA.mydomain. The server's hostname is mail.serverA.mydomain. Now enter the new server. It would probably be: mailserverB.mydomain and a certificate created using mail.serverB.mydomain. The server’s hostname would be mail.serverB.mydomain. My questions: 1. Can I use the same certificate on both servers since they are serving email for the same domain? 2. Does the hostname have to be the same as the domain name, and thus the name used to create the cert? Sorry if I’m muddled about this. It was never really an issue until I wanted to add a secondary server into the mix. Ethon B.

Convert from mbox to Maildir
by Josef Wolf 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

Hello everybody, I am in the process to install dovecot as an IMAP server. Currently, this system runs postfix and uses procmail for local (mbox style) delivery. Procmail ist started by postfix like this: /etc/postfix/main.cf: mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail ~/.forward: "|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 # jw" Before going into IMAP details, I decided to convert the system to Maildir as a first step. So I created a procmail-entryrecipe to populate a test folder: ~/.procmailrc: :0 * ^Subject:.*dovecot-test { ORGMAIL="${HOME}/Maildir/" DEFAULT=${ORGMAIL} DELIVER="/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -o mail_location=maildir:~/Maildir -o lda_mailbox_autocreate=yes" :0 | $DELIVER -m dovecot-test } This setup seems to work. But there is one point that bugs me: in the first tests, dovecot was mis-configured (the two -o options were missing) and the test mails were silently lost. No errors in the procmail logfile. Only dovecot reports errors in its logfile. But the error seems not to be noticed by procmail. Therefore procmail assumes deliver could store the mail successfully and won't keep a backup of it. I am sure, I'm doing something stupid here. I have never seen such behavior from procmail before. Normally procmail would report failure of sub-commands. Now I hesitate to go forward in this conversion process. I don't want to loose mails if something is wrong with the dovcot setup. Besides: I wonder whether the setting DEFAULT=${ORGMAIL} is a good idea. Wouldn't it be better to have DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/$USER so there would be a fallback in case there are delivery problems to ${ORGMAIL} Any thougths? -- Josef Wolf jw(a)raven.inka.de

Setting up replication - First steps...
by SH Development 16 Oct '17

16 Oct '17

Just had my first (non-Dovecot) server failure due to dried out caps on the motherboard. Got me to thinking about my single-point-of-failure mail server. Currently running Dovecot and Postfix with no issues, but want to start taking steps just to be safe. I currently run a filesystem backup every 24 hours to a tar file over NFS to another server in our rack. I am backing up: /home/vmail /etc/dovecot /etc/postfix Unfortunately, the vmail directory has grown to 27GB and takes around 7 hours now to backup as described above. Which leads me to start thinking about how quickly I could restore the server from a backup if need be, and that time is at least 7 hours just to copy and untar the files onto another hard drive. I’m sure I could hook up a HD up directly to the backup server, then I could considerably reduce the time, but I’m making the assumption that I won’t always have quick physical access to the location. So I believe my first step is to set up another server, on another IP, different hostname, with Dovecot and Postfix, and simply use the files from the /etc directories of the existing server to configure it (changing the IP and hostname of course). Am I on the right track so far? Next steps involve setting up replication with dsync? If I have successfully setup replication between the two servers, does this mean users can then actually log into either server and have their “stuff” intact? So I could set up DNS failover in case the primary server fails? Would this make the setup acceptable for secondary MX as everything should sync to the primary server when it comes back online? Sorry for thinking out loud, but I want to make sure I’m understanding the bigger picture here. Jeff

Updating keywords on copy/move
by Daniele Ricci 14 Oct '17

14 Oct '17

Hello, I'm working on my virtual keywords plugin [1] to add an apparently simple feature: add a keyword to a message when it is moved or copied into a virtual folder (let's forget about what keyword to add, I'm starting with a hard-coded one to understand Dovecot plugin development). So I've added a mail_copy hook by the notify plugin [2] and did a simple call to mail_update_keywords [3]. The current source code shows a call to mail_get_backend_mail, this is me experimenting, I've also tried calling mail_update_keywords directly on "dst" mail. The result is an imap crash: Oct 14 21:22:26 notebook dovecot: imap(daniele): Panic: file mail-log-plugin.c: line 461 (mail_log_mail_transaction_commit): assertion failed: (msg->pretext == NULL) Oct 14 21:22:26 notebook dovecot: imap(daniele): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x9f0a2) [0x7f81af52f0a2] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x9f19a) [0x7f81af52f19a] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7f81af4bfcf8] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib20_mail_log_plugin.so(+0x19e8) [0x7f81aeae89e8] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib15_notify_plugin.so(notify_contexts_mail_transaction_commit+0x58) [0x7f81aecec548] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib15_notify_plugin.so(+0x2105) [0x7f81aeced105] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_transaction_commit_get_changes+0x52) [0x7f81af807ca2] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_transaction_commit+0x21) [0x7f81af807d71] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib20_virtual_plugin.so(virtual_transaction_commit+0x78) [0x7f81ae8e2fb8] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib15_notify_plugin.so(+0x20ec) [0x7f81aeced0ec] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_transaction_commit_get_changes+0x52) [0x7f81af807ca2] -> dovecot/imap(+0x10084) [0x563d0ff2b084] -> dovecot/imap(command_exec+0x5c) [0x563d0ff37d9c] -> dovecot/imap(+0x1b322) [0x563d0ff36322] -> dovecot/imap(+0x1b3bc) [0x563d0ff363bc] -> dovecot/imap(client_handle_input+0x18d) [0x563d0ff3677d] -> dovecot/imap(client_input+0xac) [0x563d0ff36ccc] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x52) [0x7f81af544742] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run_internal+0x12e) [0x7f81af545d8e] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0x36) [0x7f81af5447d6] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x38) [0x7f81af544988] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(master_service_run+0x13) [0x7f81af4ca353] -> dovecot/imap(main+0x329) [0x563d0ff29139] -> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf1) [0x7f81af1132e1] -> dovecot/imap(_start+0x2a) [0x563d0ff292ca] This happens after my hook returns. Now, before activating core dumps and starting to do some serious debugging and reverse engineering, I ask: do I have to do something extra such as opening a transaction or something? Isn't the notify plugin supposed to do that already? Thanks for your help!

I created new usernames with > maildir as their base, and copied the folder over. Reading over David's and various schemes, the tricky part is consistency: avoiding race conditions where you have the user manipulating their mailboxes and your MTA/LDA delivering mail, while simultaneously doing mbox->Maildir conversion. To guarantee consistency, it's necessary to lock out other avenues of mbox changes while the conversion takes place. Otherwise, you'll have the situation where mail can get duplicated, or worse, deleted. For example, think of this sequence: convert B, user moves message A->B, convert A. I think the safest is method is 1) Deny the user access to IMAP/POP: deny userdb/passdb, or lock their password and flush their auth cache entry. 2) TEMPFAIL MTA delivery to user during conversion 3) Kick the user 4) Do the conversion 5) Undo 1+2 If you have a smart conversion script (one that recognizes changes and only do delta updates) you can greatly speed up step 4 and minimize outage time. 0) Do an initial conversion that will do the bulk of the work but does not guranatee consistency.

v2.2.33 released

13 Oct '17

https://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.33.tar.gz https://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.33.tar.gz.sig We're getting close to the last v2.2.x releases. Hopefully we'll have the first v2.3 beta releases out soon. * doveadm director commands wait for the changes to be visible in the whole ring before they return. This is especially useful in testing. * Environments listed in import_environment setting are now set or preserved when executing standalone commands (e.g. doveadm) + doveadm proxy: Support proxying logs. Previously the logs were visible only in the backend's logs. + Added %{if}, see https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Variables#Conditionals + Added a new notify_status plugin, which can be used to update dict with current status of a mailbox when it changes. See https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/NotifyStatus + Mailbox list index can be disabled for a namespace by appending ":LISTINDEX=" to location setting. + dsync/imapc: Added dsync_hashed_headers setting to specify which headers are used to match emails. + pop3-migration: Add pop3_migration_ignore_extra_uidls=yes to ignore mails that are visible in POP3 but not IMAP. This could happen if new mails were delivered during the migration run. + pop3-migration: Further improvements to help with Zimbra + pop3-migration: Cache POP3 UIDLs in imapc's dovecot.index.cache if indexes are enabled. These are used to optimize incremental syncs. + cassandra, dict-sql: Use prepared statements if protocol version>3. + auth: Added %{ldap_dn} variable for passdb/userdb ldap - acl: The "create" (k) permission in global acl-file was sometimes ignored, allowing users to create mailboxes when they shouldn't have. - sdbox: Mails were always opened when expunging, unless mail_attachment_fs was explicitly set to empty. - lmtp/doveadm proxy: hostip passdb field was ignored, which caused unnecessary DNS lookups if host field wasn't an IP - lmtp proxy: Fix crash when receiving unexpected reply in RCPT TO - quota_clone: Update also when quota is unlimited (broken in v2.2.31) - mbox, zlib: Fix assert-crash when accessing compressed mbox - doveadm director kick -f parameter didn't work - doveadm director flush <host> resulted flushing all hosts, if <host> wasn't an IP address. - director: Various fixes to handling backend/director changes at abnormal times, especially while ring was unsynced. These could have resulted in crashes, non-optimal behavior or ignoring some of the changes. - director: Use less CPU in imap-login processes when moving/kicking many users. - lmtp: Session IDs were duplicated/confusing with multiple RCPT TOs when lmtp_rcpt_check_quota=yes - doveadm sync -1 fails when local mailboxes exist that do not exist remotely. This commonly happened when lazy_expunge mailbox was autocreated when incremental sync expunged mails. - pop3: rawlog_dir setting didn't work

Released Pigeonhole v0.4.21 for Dovecot v2.2.33.1.
by Stephan Bosch 13 Oct '17

13 Oct '17

Hello Dovecot users, Here's the definitive 0.4.21 release. There were no changes since the release candidate. Changelog v0.4.21: * redirect action: Always set the X-Sieve-Redirected-From header to sieve_user_email if configured. Before, it would use the envelope recipient instead if available, which makes no sense if the primary e-mail address is available. + vacation extension: Allow ignoring the envelope sender while composing the "To:" header for the reply. Normally, the "To:" header is composed from the address found in the "Sender", "Resent-From" or "From" headers that is equal to the envelope sender. If none is then found, the bare envelope sender is used. This change adds a new setting "sieve_vacation_to_header_ignore_envelope". With this setting enabled, the "To:" header is always composed from those headers in the source message. The new setting thus allows ignoring the envelope, which is useful e.g. when SRS is used. + vacation extension: Compose the "To:" header from the full sender address found in the first "Sender:", "From:" or "Resent-From:" header. Before, it would create a "To:" header without a phrase part. The new behavior is nicer, since the reply will be addressed to the sender by name if possible. - LDA Sieve plugin: Fixed sequential execution of LDAP-based scripts. A missing LDAP-based script could cause the script sequence to exit earlier. - sieve-filter: Removed the (now) duplicate utf8 to mutf7 mailbox name conversion. This caused problems with mailbox names containing UTF-8 characters. The Dovecot API was changed years ago, but apparently sieve-filter was never updated. The release is available as follows: https://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.21.t… https://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.21.t… Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot v2.x wiki for more information. Have fun testing this release and don't hesitate to notify me when there are any problems. Regards, -- Stephan Bosch stephan(a)rename-it.nl

"You have the alias abuse(a)kasdivi.com <mailto:abuse@kasdivi.com> for the address admin(a)theoceanwindow.com <mailto:admin@theoceanwindow.com> in your db and all mail to these aliases should go the the admin@ mailbox.

I had completely forgotten about that.. I am changing a system from hash to SQL I actually feel kind of stupid I knew Postfix was supposed to do the acceptance.. and it should have been common sense that it need to rewrite.. The logs kept reminding me I had the following line in master,cf -o receive_override_options=no_address_mappings,no_header_body_checks,no_unknown_recipient_checks changed to -o receive_override_options=no_header_body_checks,no_unknown_recipient_checks and system works great..
