Timeout Leak
by Luciano Mannucci 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

Hello all, I've got 3 occurences of this message in my log file: auth: Warning: Timeout leak: 0x805e480 (auth-request-handler.c:550) Can I ignore it, or is it a syhmptom of something wrong? I'm running dovecot 2.2.28 (bed8434). I'll post my doveconf -n if it is worth investigating further... Cheers, Luciano. -- /"\ /Via A.

'doveadm who' behind nginx mail proxy
by Edgaras Lukoševičius 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

Hello, we have configured nginx to work as mail proxy for backend dovecot servers. Dovecot servers behind nginx proxy are showing internal nginx ip address for every client when running 'doveadm who' instead of showing real client IP addresses. Is is possible to configure this setup to show real client IP addresses when running 'doveadm who' on internal dovecot servers or to configure nginx to show which user-ip pairs are proxied to which servers?

LDAP locking problems - home related
by Ganael Laplanche 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

Hi list, # dovecot --version 2.2.13 We use Dovecot LDA and I've discovered lots of messages stating that lock files cannot be written: Mar 16 12:02:03 mailhost dovecot: lda(someuser): Error: file_dotlock_open(/home/sg/someuser/.dovecot.lda-dupes) failed: No such file or directory That user's home directory is fetched from LDAP and does not exist locally on our 'mailhost' machine, so those error messages do make sense; I would like to fix that situation. In our current Dovecot configuration, only mail_location is set: mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/%u I would like to ignore the erroneous 'home' attribute fetched from LDAP and specify a common mail_home, i.e. set: mail_home = /var/mail/%u/home but if I understand correctly, that global mail_home configuration directive would still be overridden by the LDAP 'home' attribute fetched from passdb: [...] pass_attrs = supannAliasLogin=user,userPassword=password,\ homeDirectory=userdb_home,uidNumber=userdb_uid,gidNumber=userdb_gid [...] Can I just remove homeDirectory from pass_attrs to skip fetching 'home' from LDAP and then set the global mail_home ? Also, if that works: We would switch from a situation where a home is set (but wrong) to one where it becomes valid. Can there be any side-effect in that case (apart from fixing locking problems) ? Finally, will mail_home (leaf) directory be created if it does not exist yet (parent directory exists) ?

Dovecot 2.2.27 proxy - enforcing per client IP connection limits
by Adi Pircalabu 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

Hi, Trying to keep abusive/buggy IMAP clients at bay on a number of Dovecot proxy servers, I've reconfigured them to use "mail_max_userip_connections = 50" in the "protocol imap" section, followed by restarting Dovecot. Yet, I'm still seeing 160+ established connections from a single IP address for the same email account.

Postfix Ignoring lmtp, delivering straight to maildir
by Doug Barton 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

First I'd like to thank all the developers and contributors to dovecot. I've been using it for many years, and deeply appreciate your fine work. :) dovecot --version 2.2.22 (fe789d2) I have a working installation with postfix and dovecot, and I want to add sieve to it, so I am trying to configure postfix to use lmtp instead of 'virtual' for its delivery service. However it is ignoring that request, and for every message I get "status=sent (delivered to maildir)" and it shows up in my Inbox. On my mail host I have 1 normal user, let's say the username is 'myuser'. I have postfix configured to accept mail for several different domains, and each domain has a lot of different mail usernames (I use this for mailing lists and such). I use the virtual_maps feature of postfix, and have a map file that looks like this: abuse(a)dougbarton.us myuser hostmaster(a)dougbarton.us myuser dougb(a)dougbarton.us myuser ... All of this works great, and mail for all the different usernames and domains gets delivered into my one real user's Maildir, and I can see the mail with my IMAP clients. I've configured sieve in dovecot, and I can see the socket for lmtp in /var/spool/postfix/private/. I can also see the managesieve port in netstat, and I can use a sieve client to connect to it and edit scripts, etc. So according to all the tutorials I've read my next step is this in postfix' main.cf: virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp which I did, and postfix restarts with no errors. But, it seems to avoid lmtp altogether, and as I mentioned above it delivers straight to my Maildir Inbox every time. I do have a sieve file, and the ~/dovecot.sieve symlink exists. I created a very simple filter: require ["fileinto", "imap4flags"]; if header :contains "Subject" "test" { fileinto "Junk"; } which my sieve client says is correct syntax. Still no joy. :-/ Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome. (And sorry this is so long, but based on my extensive searches it seems my configuration is a bit unique, so I explained it in some length.)

Backing Up and Restoring mailboxes
by Jerry 15 Mar '17

15 Mar '17

I am going to be wiping clean my system and doing a complete upgrade. I have dovecot installed. I want to back up the mail system, and then be able to restore it. I thought that I could do this. doveadm -Dv backup -u user(a)example.com maildir:~/DoveBU Then I was going to gunzip that directory and put it onto a USB Drive. Now, after updating the system, I thought that I could just unzip the file from the USB drive. My question is, what command do I run to return the files to the same place they were originally. Assuming the structure was: "/var/mail/vmail/", what would I do? Thanks -- Jerry

autocreate ONLY for new Users
by plataleas 15 Mar '17

15 Mar '17

Hi All We are currently migrating accounts to Dovecot. The existing accounts do have special folders with different names. (i.e. sent, sent-mail) The autocreate-function of "special folders" is useful. However we need this feature ONLY for new users. The existing accounts have a mapping for their own "special folders". There are discussions about this topic on the mailing list: /http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-August/097313.html https://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2016-May/104296.html/ Did someone manage to implement this ? Are there workarounds? Thanks and regards plataleas

Users with extra mailbox: namespace/mailbox in userdb lookup?
by MRob 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

Hello, We have a need for some users to have an additional folder created and subscribed for them. Is is possible to return an override for the default "namespace inbox" containing the needed mailbox definitions in the userdb lookup for such users? If so, how would the userdb lookup result be formatted? Presumably as just one long string, but how would the setting be named given there can't be a space in it? Can I replace the space with an underscore, e.g. userdb_namespace_inbox = '{ mailbox Drafts { auto=subscribe special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Trash { auto=subscribe special_use = \Trash } }' Or is there some other way to do this?

strange behaviour of dovecot
by Masaharu Kawada 14 Mar '17

Dear dovecot-list, Dovecot gives the below error messages and those errors go away after running 'systemctl restart dovecot'(Restarting dovecot service)', however, the same happens after a while later(like after 300 mails delivered). --- master : Error : service(anvil) : Initial Status notification no received in 30 seconds, killing the process master : Error : service(log) : Initial Status notification no received in 30 seconds, killing the process master : Error : service(ssl-params) : Initial Status notification no received in 30 seconds, killing the process master : Error : service(log) : child 3703 killed with signal 9 --- then the log process is not there so that no mail log gets captured in maillog: --- root 28036 0.0 0.0 19864 1604 ?

Solr 6.4.2
by Daniel Miller 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

For those trying Solr - version 6.4.2 fixed a number of bugs in the 6.4.x series. Speed is incredible. If you haven't tried it - I strongly recommend it! And, using the included installation script (with Solr) combined with my schema - installation was painless. I'm now running in single core mode without issues (running in cloud mode with a single core seemed silly anyway). -- Daniel

Dict protocol changes string
by Nagy, Attila 13 Mar '17

13 Mar '17

Hi, I use pass and userdb with dict protocol in a similar way: key passdb { key = passdb^MAuth-User: %u^MAuth-Pass: %w^MAuth-Protocol: %s^MClient-IP: %r format = json } (^M is an \r character, inserted with vi CTRL-v + enter) Until 2.2.24 this has worked, but 2.2.25 seems to convert that ASCII 13 into an ASCII 1 and an "r". Python printout from what I get with 2.2.25: 'Lshared/passdb\x01rAuth-User: user\x01rAuth-Pass: pass\x01rAuth-Protocol: pop3\x01rClient-IP: 1.2.3.4' Is this change intentional? Why?

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.28.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.28.tar.gz.sig * director: "doveadm director move" to same host now refreshes user's timeout. This allows keeping user constantly in the same backend by just periodically moving the user there. * When new mailbox is created, use initially INBOX's dovecot.index.cache caching decisions. * Expunging mails writes GUID to dovecot.index.log now only if the GUID is quickly available from index/cache. * pop3c: Increase timeout for PASS command to 5 minutes. * Mail access errors are no longer ignored when searching or sorting. With IMAP the untagged SEARCH/SORT reply is still sent the same as before, but NO reply is returned instead of OK. + Make dovecot.list.index's filename configurable. This is needed when there are multiple namespaces pointing to the same mail root (e.g. lazy_expunge namespace for mdbox). + Add size.virtual to dovecot.index when folder vsizes are accessed (e.g. quota=count). This is mainly a workaround to avoid slow quota recalculation performance when message sizes get lost from dovecot.index.cache due to corruption or some other reason. + auth: Support OAUTHBEARER and XOAUTH2 mechanisms. Also support them in lib-dsasl for client side. + auth: Support filtering by SASL mechanism: passdb { mechanisms } + Shrink the mail processes' memory usage by not storing settings duplicated unnecessarily many times. + imap: Add imap_fetch_failure setting to control what happens when FETCH fails for some mails (see example-config). + imap: Include info about last command in disconnection log line. + imap: Created new SEARCH=X-MIMEPART extension. It's currently not advertised by default, since it's not fully implemented. + fts-solr: Add support for basic authentication. + Cassandra: Support automatically retrying failed queries if execution_retry_interval and execution_retry_times are set. + doveadm: Added "mailbox path" command. + mail_log plugin: If plugin { mail_log_cached_only=yes }, log the wanted fields only if it doesn't require opening the email. + mail_vsize_bg_after_count setting added (see example-config). + mail_sort_max_read_count setting added (see example-config). + pop3c: Added pop3c_features=no-pipelining setting to prevent using PIPELINING extension even though it's advertised. - Index files: day_first_uid wasn't updated correctly since v2.2.26. This caused dovecot.index.cache to be non-optimal. - imap: SEARCH/SORT may have assert-crashed in client_check_command_hangs - imap: FETCH X-MAILBOX may have assert-crashed in virtual mailboxes. - imap: Running time in tagged command reply was often wrongly 0. - search: Using NOT n:* or NOT UID n:* wasn't handled correctly - director: doveadm director kick was broken - director: Fix crash when using director_flush_socket - director: Fix some bugs when moving users between backends - imapc: Various error handling fixes and improvements - master: doveadm process status output had a lot of duplicates. - autoexpunge: If mailbox's rename timestamp is newer than mail's save-timestamp, use it instead. This is useful when autoexpunging e.g. Trash/* and an entire mailbox is deleted by renaming it under Trash to prevent it from being autoexpunged too early. - autoexpunge: Multiple processes may have been trying to expunge the same mails simultaneously. This was problematic especially with lazy_expunge plugin. - auth: %{passdb:*} was empty in auth-worker processes - auth-policy: hashed_password was always sent empty. - dict-sql: Merge multiple UPDATEs to a single statement if possible. - fts-solr: Escape {} chars when sending queries - fts: fts_autoindex_exclude = \Special-use caused crashes - doveadm-server: Fix leaks and other problems when process is reused for multiple requests (service_count != 1) - sdbox: Fix assert-crash on mailbox create race - lda/lmtp: deliver_log_format values weren't entirely correct if Sieve was used. especially %{storage_id} was broken. - lmtp_user_concurrency_limit didn't work if userdb changed username

Hello dovecot Problem : maildirsize and dovecot quota get have different values dovecot version : 2.2.13 happens with : some mailboxes This issue happens only to some mailboxes and only for a specific period of time until maildirsize gets updated by something (not me). I can't reproduce this now because it happened this morning and now its 2 PM and the problem is gone (maildirsize was updated). Anybody experienced the same situation ? -- Yassine.
