BUG?: Dsync over piped process (DSYNC_RUN_TYPE_CMD): EPIPE if X (done) is received in another write after F (finish)
by J. Nick Koston 20 May '16

20 May '16

Hi, It appears that dsync closes the file handle once it gets the F (finish) response even if it hasn’t received the X (done) response. If the X (done) response gets delivered in another write this will generate EPIPE in the connected process. This is much easier to replicate over SSL, however the trace is provided without SSL since its easier to see whats going on. Thanks J.

mailbox.auto ignores dovecot-uidlist.lock

I'm trying to lock down a maildir from modifications using dovecot-uidlist.lock, but when a user with mailbox.auto = create logs in, then the folder is created regardless of dovecot-uidlist.lock existing or not. Is there no way to prevent dovecot from touching anything in a maildir folder? -- Tom

I have been trying to follow the "instructions" at "http://blog.iandreev.com/?p=1975#dovecot" and they seem to be pretty good. everything works until I get to the part were I test the dovecot installation and it keeps failing.

synchronous replication based on priority
by Sylvain Allemand 18 May '16

18 May '16

Hi, i see in this page (http://blog.dovecot.org/2012/02/dovecot-clustering-with-dsync-based.html) : "Optionally the replication plugin can also support synchronous replication of new mail deliveries. In this way it connects to replication-notify UNIX socket, tells it to replicate the user with sync (=highest) priority and waits until it is done or replication_sync_timeout occurs. The IMAP/LMTP client won't see an "OK" reply until the mail is replicated (or the replication has failed). The synchronous replication probably adds a noticeable delay, so it might not be acceptable for IMAP, but might be for LMTP." is this fonctionnality effective for LMTP ? If so, where is the config ? The wiki says that replication is asynchronous.

18 May '16

I'm running dovecot 2.0.9 According to the man page, the command: # doveconf -f service=imap is supposed to show just the settings for imap. Is this correct? When I issue the command it shows everything. Why?

Reloading dovecot and postfix after updates
by ＠lbutlr 17 May '16

17 May '16

Recently someone used webmin to update dovecot, which went fine. However, after the update no one could login to the mail server because of the mismatch in the versions between what was installed and what postfix was expecting. Other that bapping the person on the head and saying “don’t do that” is there anyway to force a reload of postfix after dovecot reloads? Like adding a postfix reload to the dovecot rc.d script or someway of linking them so that if either version changes they both get reloaded? (I don’t even use webmin myself, so maybe it’s even possible through it?) I mean, it’s unlikely to happen again at this point, but still… -- "...and Digby considered how much he liked salt..."

Dovecot configuration: Home dir not found
by Divakar BM 17 May '16

17 May '16

Hi, I've my mail solution configured on Server-A with webmail, Dovecot and Postfix. I'm trying to deploy only Dovecot and postfix on Server-B to reduce IMAP/POP3/SMTP load on server-A. Please note server-B does not mailboxes. It should be mapped to mailboxes on server-A. While the LDAP query from Server-B to Server-A is going successfully, the imap service on Server-B is throwing the below error. imap(user(a)example.com): Debug: Home dir not found: /mail/vmail/**/ I guess imap is looking for *home dir* in server-B. How do I tel the imap that home dir is on server-A and not server-B. Please let me know if there exists a configuration parameter for the above.. Thanks Divakar

Sieve extension for testing for mailbox

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi! Which Pigeonhole Sieve extension should I use to process/test a message depending on whether the message is in a particular mailbox?

The reason I want to perform this test is that I have configured my MTA to deliver "outgoing" e-mails to my "Sent" IMAP folder, and these messages arrive unread.

SSL on doveadm port
by Patrick Domack 15 May '16

15 May '16

I have been attempting to setup ssl on the doveadm port. So far this works fine, as long as the global certificate is used. I wanted to use a different certificate, one that machines the machine name, instead of the generic mail certificate, but I have not been able to figure out how to do this. Attempts to add the certificate in the services section with the ssl = yes option, cause syntax error, and dovecot doesn't start. Creating a protocol doveadm section with it, is ignored, and setting up a local section with it in it, is ignored also.

Dovecot 2.1.7 randomly lost emails
by Paolo Rinaldo 13 May '16

13 May '16

Hi Dovecot 2.1.7 Postfix 2.9.6 Maildir backend, emails filtered by a Postfix frontend (Sqlgrey, Amavis). Lmtp delivering emails using a simple sieve script. Ubuntu 12.04 VMware virtual server. When email are CCed to other recipients on the same domain (the same backend), sometimes they are lost. We hosts approx. 1500 mailboxes, the problem occurs one or two times a day. Recently I changed the frontend, the previous one was delivering one email for each recipient, we had a couple of error per year, we thought it was due to client-side error. The frequency increased with the new frontend, no more “splitting” messages for more than one recipient. The following sample is from a client using a POP3 connection, leaving emails on server. the Postfix mail.log May 11 01:26:55 lmail01 postfix/qmgr[7054]: 96E9CA6628: from=<sender(a)external.com>, size=11822371, nrcpt=2 (queue active) May 11 01:26:55 lmail01 postfix/lmtp[3106]: 96E9CA6628: to=<user-one(a)domain.com>, relay=mail4.robinson.it[private/dovecot-lmtp], delay=0.64, delays=0.45/0/0/0.19, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 <user-one(a)domain.com> 0vNzHyptMlezHgAAk+lh+g Saved) May 11 01:26:55 lmail01 postfix/lmtp[3106]: 96E9CA6628: to=user-two(a)domain.com>, relay=mail4.robinson.it[private/dovecot-lmtp], delay=0.74, delays=0.45/0/0/0.29, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 user-two(a)domain.com> 0vNzHyptMlezHgAAk+lh+g Saved) May 11 01:26:55 lmail01 postfix/qmgr[7054]: 96E9CA6628: removed the dovecot-info.log May 11 01:26:55 lmtp(7859, user-one(a)domain.com) Info: 0vNzHyptMlezHgAAk+lh+g: sieve: msgid=<003A2D931FFF0E48A2314A1ADC87E23E8E4BA1DE(a)t49-ms-exmb02.INTRANET.SAKSROOT.SAKSINC.com>: stored mail into mailbox 'INBOX' May 11 01:26:55 lmtp(7859, user-two(a)domain.com) Info: 0vNzHyptMlezHgAAk+lh+g: sieve: msgid=<003A2D931FFF0E48A2314A1ADC87E23E8E4BA1DE(a)t49-ms-exmb02.INTRANET.SAKSROOT.SAKSINC.com>: stored mail into mailbox 'INBOX' I cannot find the email 0vNzHyptMlezHgAAk+lh+g for user-two(a)domain.com<mailto:user-two@domain.com>, nor I cannot suppose problems on the client, nothing changed on the back-end.

How do I share folders ?

Hello dovecot, First poster here. What I want : give a.chaouche(a)algerian-radio.dz list and read permissions on a.chaouche(a)backup.algerian-radio.dz. Let's just discuss sharing the inbox then I can do the same for subfolders, in any. a.chaouche(a)algerian-radio.dz and a.chaouche(a)backup.algerian-radio.dz are two different users. Details about the domains aren't relevant here I guess. My dovecot configuration, what I believe to be the important parts :userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/vmail/%d/%n/ driver = static } namespace partage { location = maildir:%%h:INDEX=~/%%u prefix = shared.%%u. separator = . type = shared } mail_location = Maildir:~/ Both users can access their respective inboxes just fine, I only need to give a.chaouche(a)algerian-radio.dz access to a.chaouche(a)backup.algerian-radio.dz Full output of doveconf -n : # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 8.3 auth_mechanisms = plain login debug_log_path = /var/log/dovecot.debug disable_plaintext_auth = no first_valid_uid = 100 log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log mail_debug = yes mail_location = Maildir:~/ mail_plugins = " quota acl" 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 ihave 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 = INBOX. separator = . type = private } namespace partage { hidden = no location = maildir:%%h:INDEX=~/%%u prefix = shared.%%u. separator = . type = shared } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { acl = vfile quota = maildir:User quota quota_warning = storage=95%% quota-warning 95 %u quota_warning2 = storage=80%% quota-warning 80 %u sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } postmaster_address = root(a)algerian-radio.dz protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0666 } } service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } } ssl = no userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/vmail/%d/%n/ driver = static } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " quota acl sieve quota" } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " quota acl sieve" } protocol imap { mail_plugins = " quota acl imap_quota imap_acl" } I don't know if it's possible to share folders with the doveadm acl command ? root(a)messagerie[10.10.10.20] ~ # doveadm acl debug -u a.chaouche(a)algerian-radio.dz shared/a.chaouche(a)backup.algerian-radio.dz doveadm(a.chaouche(a)algerian-radio.dz): Error: Can't open mailbox shared/a.chaouche(a)backup.algerian-radio.dz: Mailbox doesn't exist: shared/a.chaouche(a)backup.algerian-radio.dz root(a)messagerie[10.10.10.20] ~ #

Dovecot + libsodium
by Andreas Meyer 12 May '16

12 May '16

Hi, Thank you very much for creating and maintaining dovecot! In my scenario, I want to use the password hash algorithms provided by libsodium: https://download.libsodium.org/doc/ So my difficulty is to have dovecot support libsodium's hash algorithms, particularly: crypto_pwhash_scryptsalsa208sha256_str On the sodium maillinglist I asked for help and received an adjusted dovecot code, which exactly does what I need. You find it here: https://github.com/jedisct1/core/tree/scrypt-argon2 Obviously I need to apply these changes everytime I upgrade to a new dovecot version now. So my question ist, what do I need to do so that you will include libsodium support in future versions of dovecot? Thank you very much for your attention, Andreas

Automatic packages for Dovecot v2.3
by Stephan Bosch 11 May '16

11 May '16

Hi, The Xi repository for v2.3 is now public. The information is updated here: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PrebuiltBinaries#Automatically_Built_Packages Xi now modifies the version string in the Dovecot sources. This way `dovecot -n` output includes the Xi package version. This is currently only true for the v2.3 packages though. I am still testing a new v2.2 builder that follows both the master and latest release branch. Packages from the release branch are published in a separate repository, so that a more stable package stream is obtained; it is only updated when the developers start working on making a release. The intermittent beta or rc release tags on that release branch are recognized and reflected in the package versions. If a new release branch is detected, the the development packages for the master branch get an alpha version with a lower version digit that is one higher than the upcoming release. For example, when a release-2.2.25 branch is created, packages from the master branch will get version 2.2.26~alpha0-1 in anticipation of the next release in this series. Packages from the release branch will have version 2.2.25~beta0-1 until the first release tag is seen. Regards, Stephan.

Undeletable mailboxes

Hi I have to maintain a dovcot installation where users may access there mails through IMAPS and/or via self-developed portal. >From time to time users complain about mailboxes showing up they have deleted bevor.

ACLs over imapc
by abi＠oleane.net 10 May '16

10 May '16

hello i've struggled various times trying to setup shared mailboxes to no avail. the same setup with local file access works imapc seems to work with generic shared mailboxes nevertheless, i never managed to get a working setup with both user-defined acls and imapc has anyone been successful in doing so ? is this supposed to work ? i've been experimenting with dovecot 2.2.9 and 2.2.22 and never saw any imap acl commands issued by the builtin imap client. thanks abi(a)oleane.net

Mailbox doesn't exist response
by Cornelius Charlie 10 May '16

10 May '16

Hello, Using the latest dovecot version, selecting a non-existing mailbox with non printable characters encoded in utf7, the mailbox doesn't exist response contains the folder name encoded in utf8. Is that legal regarding the rfc ? If yes, how the client can be aware of the used encoding ? Thanks.

Workaround for rcpt suffix
by Robban 10 May '16

10 May '16

Hi all! I'm stuck again, let me start with explaining my setup. The PassDB and UserDB is LDAP (FreeIPA) and I'm using ldap mail attribute to search after the recipient so one user can have multiple mail aliases. So far so good. Next is to have an catchall(a)domain.tld, that is done via an static userdb backend (I know you are strongly against catchall adresses), and they are delivered to public folders (${mail_location}/domain.tld). I also use address extension so sort a mail to correct folder (+ sign). Now I need to fix so mail to <mail attr>-sievetest is handled by the user assigned to <mail attr>, is this somehow possible? //Robban

I have just used Squirrel web client to re organize some old emails to subfolders. that worked OK, EXCEPT, all these emails are now in order that I have moved them rather than original date, is that some 'simple' way to re-sort them back by original date ? thanks for any pointers, sorry for dumb question Voytek
