Multiple core solr support
by Daniel Miller 13 Oct '15

13 Oct '15

Is it possible to use variables, such as domain or username, in the plugin url declaration? This would allow using multiple cores to separate the stored indexes. So when my own giant mailbox gets corrupt...I don't have to rebuild everybody's... Something like url=http://mysolr.server.com:8983/solr/%u -- Daniel

fts solr ignores new mailboxes until fts rescan
by Giorgio Paolucci 13 Oct '15

13 Oct '15

Hello, on my debian wheezy installation, I implemented fts plugin with solr as indexing system. I noticed that if a user creates a new folder, that folder it is ignored by dovecot indexing until a doveadm fts rescan is performed for that user. From that time on everything works ok on that folder. As a test I set fts_autoindex=yes and put in that folder a brand new mail never indexed before. in my logs indexer-worker says it indexed 0 messages Obviously this is a major issue as users often create new folders, but a search always returns empty results. My system is a debian wheezy with dovecot packages from backports dovecot 2.2.13-11~bpo70+1. Am I missing something? Any clue would be appreciated. Thank you all in advance.

Hello, i have installed Centos 7.1.1503 with Dovecot 2.2.10-4.el7_0.1. With Thunderbird all works fine, but when i configure the email client of Mac (Yosemite) with IMAP i can see a error in the log and the client not see the emails: Oct 9 14:31:34 localhost dovecot: imap(xxxxxxx@xxxxxxx): Fatal: master: service(imap): child 18639 killed with signal 11 (core dumps disabled) I have read the instructions of http://www.dovecot.org/bugreport.html, but core file is not writing.

iterate users with passwd-file passdb?
by Eric Abrahamsen 12 Oct '15

12 Oct '15

Apologies for the basic question, but I've been googling and can't figure out if this is possible or not. Simply: Is it possible to iterate over users if I'm using the passwd-file passdb driver? Do I need a SQL-based driver if I want to iterate? Here's what I've got right now. I don't have many users, and would prefer to retain the simplicity of the passwd-file if possible. Thanks! passdb { driver = passwd-file args = username_format=%u scheme=ssha512 /etc/dovecot/passwd.db deny = no master = no pass = no skip = never result_failure = continue result_internalfail = continue result_success = return-ok } userdb { driver = static args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/var/mail/vmail/%d/%n }

Syncronizing two IMAP servers
by Timothy Murphy 10 Oct '15

10 Oct '15

I spend time in two places, in different countries. I have a local network in each place, with IMAP servers on each network. I collect email by fetchmail from various servers, and read email on my laptop with KMail. I tried using just one IMAP server, but this proved impractical. So I have two collections of the same sub-folders, on the two servers. I have two questions: 1. Is there a simpler way of organizing my email? 2. Given the current method, is there a way of syncronizing folders on the two servers? -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

Maildir: ACLs/Unix perms and unable to see content of specific mailbox
by Olaf Marzocchi 10 Oct '15

10 Oct '15

Dear Dovecot users, hello. I will merge two issues I have into a single email because they may be related. I used dovecot on a OmniOS server since 2014 (currently OmniOS r151014) with the following configuration (it shows 2.2.18 because I recently updated dovecot, skipping only the PostgreSQL plugin): # 2.2.18: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: SunOS 5.11 i86pc zfs mail_location = maildir:/tank/home/%u/Maildir mail_privileged_group = mail 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 { driver = pam } protocols = imap ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem userdb { driver = passwd } You can see that I set the Maildir folder inside the shared home folders of my server (it is only one user, anyway). It always worked perfectly, but one-two months ago I changed the permissions of my whole home folder, recursively, to add proper ACLs. I needed them because the clients started using illumos kernel SMB (relying on ACLs) instead of Netatalk/AFP (relying on Unix perms only). I didn't realise I applied the ACLs also to the Maildir folder. Dovecot worked for several weeks fine, I noticed the issue only yesterday when a mailbox (see below) appeared in Thunderbird completely empty even if the "cur" subfolder on the server still contains all the mails. Dovecot was throwing some errors like: dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.error] imap(olaf): Error: rename(/tank/home/olaf/Maildir/.&A6k- Mailing Lists.Log/dovecot.index.cache) failed: Permission denied (euid=501(olaf) egid=501(olaf) UNIX perms appear ok (ACL/MAC wrong?)) dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.error] imap(olaf): Error: rename(/tank/home/olaf/Maildir/.&A6k- Mailing Lists.Log/dovecot.index.tmp, /tank/home/olaf/Maildir/.&A6k- Mailing Lists.Log/dovecot.index) failed: Permission denied dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.error] imap(olaf): Error: unlink(/tank/home/olaf/Maildir/subscriptions.lock) failed: Permission denied dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.error] imap(olaf): Error: rename(/tank/home/olaf/Maildir/subscriptions.lock, /tank/home/olaf/Maildir/subscriptions) failed: Permission denied I will post here the current permissions of the folder containing Maildir, of the Maildir itself, of its contents, and of the folder that appears empty when browsed with a client (Thunderbird). /tank/home/olaf $ ls -lV .. drwx------+ 16 olaf olaf 17 Sep 19 01:52 olaf user:olaf:rwxpdDaARWcCos:fd-----:allow group:2147483648:rwxpdDaARWcCos:fd-----:allow everyone@:rwxpdDaARWcCos:fd-----:deny /tank/home/olaf $ ls -lV drwxrwx--- 348 olaf olaf 359 Sep 19 01:51 Maildir owner@:rwxp--aARWcCos:-------:allow group@:rwxp--a-R-c--s:-------:allow everyone@:------a-R-c--s:-------:allow /tank/home/olaf $ ls -lV Maildir/ drwxrwx--- 2 olaf olaf 2 Jan 30 2014 cur owner@:rwxp--aARWcCos:-------:allow group@:rwxp--a-R-c--s:-------:allow everyone@:------a-R-c--s:-------:allow -rwxrwx--- 1 olaf olaf 21 Jan 30 2014 dovecot-keywords owner@:rwxp--aARWcCos:-------:allow group@:rwxp--a-R-c--s:-------:allow everyone@:------a-R-c--s:-------:allow (ALL THE SAME PERMISSIONS FOR THE OTHER FILES EXCEPT...) -rwxrwx--- 1 olaf olaf 13735 Jan 24 2015 subscriptions owner@:rwxp--aARWcCos:-------:allow group@:rwxp--a-R-c--s:-------:allow everyone@:------a-R-c--s:-------:allow -rw-rw---- 1 olaf olaf 13709 Sep 19 01:51 subscriptions.lock owner@:rw-p--aARWcCos:-------:allow group@:rw-p--a-R-c--s:-------:allow everyone@:------a-R-c--s:-------:allow The folder that appears empty: /tank/home/olaf $ ls -lV Maildir/.Generiche/ total 513 drwxrwx--- 2 olaf olaf 949 Sep 18 01:42 cur owner@:rwxp--aARWcCos:-------:allow group@:rwxp--a-R-c--s:-------:allow everyone@:------a-R-c--s:-------:allow -rwxrwx--- 1 olaf olaf 46 May 18 2014 dovecot-keywords owner@:rwxp--aARWcCos:-------:allow group@:rwxp--a-R-c--s:-------:allow everyone@:------a-R-c--s:-------:allow (ALL THE SAME PERMISSIONS FOR THE OTHER FILES) I really hope you will have the time to help me because I already applied the permissions recursively and I removed the ACLs, almost as it was before my mistake. I specified "almost" because originally (I checked the backups) the Maildir folder had an ACL that gave access permissions also to the group "mail": drwxrwx---+349 olaf olaf 359 Feb 16 2014 Maildir group:mail:rwxpdDaARWcCos:fd-----:allow owner@:rwxpdDaARWcCos:fd----I:allow group@:rwxpdDaARWcCos:fd----I:allow everyone@:rwxpdDaARWcCos:fd----I:deny Yesterday I haven't replicated it because from the documentation I understood it was not necessary. My questions, in short: - what are the permissions I need to give to the Maildir folder? I understood from the documentation it's 700, with my user/group (the one of the user accessing the mail). What about ACLs? and what about group "mail"? - the (only!) subfolder which appears empty in Thunderbird, may it depend on the permissions? maybe due to them the index was not updated and UIDs don't match. If after applying the correct permissions I still cannot see its contents, is there a way to recover the mails? the files are all still there. Sorry for the long email, but after several tries yesterday I exhausted my ideas. Regards, Olaf

Double Dots
by Ken Mandelberg 09 Oct '15

09 Oct '15

I've noticed lately that Dovecot seems to be inserting an extra dot in some url's contained in html email. The most consistent example I see is in the newsletters from the Washington Post. For example, if I look at the raw email on the mail server I see text that starts <http://link.washingtonpost.com/click But if I look at what Thunderbird shows it starts http://link..washingtonpost.com/click/ I don't think its Thunderbird adding the dot, since K9 mail on my Android phone shows the same issue. It's only after the IMAP delivery that the extra dot appears. We are running dovecot 2.0.12 Incidentally, the newsletter is full of these link.washington post url's. For each article it appears 3 times, once on title, once on a "read full article" link, and one on a picture. Its only the one on title, that gets the extra dot after its been through dovecot. Furthermore, it only happens from the second article on. Any ideas?

Dovecot plugin and Push Mail
by Steffan Cline 08 Oct '15

08 Oct '15

I’m posting this here and will in a couple other places to see if anyone has any experience with this and knows what I can do. My setup is CentOS 6 with postfix, procmail and dovecot administered via Virtualmin. Postfix of course receives the email. Procmail uses it’s hooks to run the email through spam assassin and clamd. After than procmail hands it off to dovecot/deliver to drop it in the user’s mail box. I use the following plugin for dovecot with the daemon to provide Apple push mail for iPhones. https://github.com/st3fan/dovecot-xaps-daemon https://github.com/st3fan/dovecot-xaps-plugin For the most part, this works awesome but have run into a bit of a race issue with notification of mail in a particular instance. On my computer I use Outlook for Mac which says it supports IDLE but is broken. When an email comes in, I ALWAYS get the notification via the dovecpt plugin for a push since Outlook is checking IMAP every 2 minutes. On a buddy’s setup, he uses Apple Mail which supports IDLE that actually works. When his email client is connected from his laptop, it does actually maintain a persistent connection and NEVER receives a notification from the dovecot plugin because I’m guessing dovecot/deliver sees that the email was received by the desktop client. I’m not sure how to make the plugin ALWAYS give a push. Is it a dovecot config? A bug in the plugin? I’m not sure. Suggestions? Thank you, Steffan Cline 602-793-0014

how to treat synonymous domain names as one
by Nikolai Krot 08 Oct '15

08 Oct '15

Hallo List Users, I am curious if there is a way to rewrite domain name to another domain name. My goal is to provide authentication and mailboxes for the synonymous domains in a single source while keeping all other domains separate. I have setup: auth_username_format = %Lu mail_location = /var/vmail/%d/%u/Maildir in userdb/passdb (passwd-file): /etc/dovecot/%d/users Say I have two synonymous domain names my-domain-1.com my-long-named-domain-1.com I want both to resolve to my-domain-1.com when %d variable is used in Dovecot configs, so that passwd-file is /etc/dovecot/my-domain-1.com/users mailbox is /var/vmail/my-domain-1.com/user/Maildir while keeping other domains unchanged my-other-domain-2.com should resolve to: passwd-file is /etc/dovecot/my-other-domain-2.com/users mailbox is /var/vmail/my-other-domain-2.com/user/Maildir thanks, Nikolai

Dovecot don't erase mails from storage.

Released Pigeonhole v0.4.9 for Dovecot v2.2.19
by Stephan Bosch 05 Oct '15

05 Oct '15

Hello Dovecot users, Here is the definitive 0.4.9 release. Only a few minor fixes were done since RC1. Changelog v0.4.9: * Properly implemented checking of ABI version for Sieve interpreter plugins, much like Dovecot itself does for plugins. This will prevent plugin ABI mismatches. + Implemented a vnd.dovecot.environment extension. This builds upon the standard environment extension and adds a few more environment items, such as username and default mailbox. It also creates a variables namespace so that environment items can be accessed directly. I am still thinking about more environment items that can be added. + Sieve extprograms plugin: Made line endings of the input passed to the external programs configurable. This can be configured separately for each of the three extensions. + ManageSieve: Implemented proxy XCLIENT support. This allows the proxy to pass client information to the back-end. - ManageSieve: Fixed an assert failure occurring when a client disconnects during the GETSCRIPT command. - doveadm sieve plugin: Fixed incorrect initialization of mail user. This caused a few memory leaks. - sieve-filter command line tool: Fixed handling of failure-related implicit keep when there is an explicit default destination folder. This caused message duplication. - lib-sieve: Fixed bug in RFC5322 header folding. Words longer than the optimal line length caused empty lines in the output, which would break the resulting message header. This surfaced in References: headers with very long message IDs. The release is available as follows: http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.9.tar… http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.9.tar… Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot v2.x wiki for more information. Have fun testing this new release and don't hesitate to notify me when there are any problems. Regards, -- Stephan Bosch stephan(a)rename-it.nl

v2.2.19 released
by Timo Sirainen 03 Oct '15

03 Oct '15

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.19.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.19.tar.gz.sig * pop3_deleted_flag has been broken since v2.2.10. Using it would cause buffer overflows, which could be exploitable. However, this bug would have become visible quite soon after users had deleted some POP3 mails, because the pop3 processes would have started crashing all the time even in normal use. * "doveadm director flush" command has a changed meaning now: It safely moves users to their wanted backends, instead of simply forgetting the mapping entirely and leaving the existing connections untouched. Use -F parameter to get the original unsafe behavior. + Added imap-hibernate processes (see imap_hibernate_timeout setting). IDLEing IMAP connections can be hibernated, which saves memory. + Optimized tracking mailboxes' vsizes (= sum of all messages' sizes). If mailbox_list_index=yes, it's also stored in there. This makes it very efficient to look up vsizes for all mailboxes. + Added a quota "count" backend, which uses the mailbox vsizes to get the current quota usage. It requires using the new quota_vsizes=yes setting, which tracks the messages' "virtual sizes" rather than "physical sizes". Their distiction is minor and mostly irrelevant nowadays (if mail sizes should be counted with LF or CRLF newlines). + "doveadm director up/down" commands added. The monitoring script should be using these commands instead of changing the vhost count. This allows admin to manually disable a server by changing the vhost count to 0 without the monitoring script changing it back. + Added support for HAProxy protocol: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HAProxy + Added push-notification plugin framework, which can be used to easily implement push notifications to various backends. Implemented "ox" backend for notifying Open-Xchange via HTTP/json. + imap_logout_format supports more variables now, e.g. number of deleted messages. + pop3: Added pop3_delete_type setting (related to pop3_deleted_flag). + plugin { fts_enforced=yes } setting now fails body searches unless it can be done via the full text search engine. + Added %{passdb:*} and %{userdb:*} variables to various places + auth: Added ":protected" suffix for passdb and userdb fields. If used, the field doesn't overwrite an existing field. + IMAP/POP3 proxy: If a backend server dies, avoid client reconnection spikes by slowly disconnecting clients over time. This is enabled by setting login_proxy_max_disconnect_delay=secs passdb extra field. + imap: Added new read-only METADATA entries: /private/specialuse, /shared/comment, /shared/admin + imap: If client disconnects in the middle of a command, log how long the command had been running. - mdbox: Rebuilding could have caused message's reference count to overflow the 16bit number in some situations, causing problems when trying to expunge the duplicates. - Various search fixes (fts, solr, tika, lib-charset, indexer) - Various virtual plugin fixes - Various fixes and optimizations to dsync, imapc and pop3-migration - imap: Various RFC compliancy and crash fixes to NOTIFY

Re: dovecot quota service for postfix
by Michael Peter 03 Oct '15

Hello, Thanks for the clarifications plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=1G quota_grace = 10%% # 10% is the default quota_status_success = DUNNO quota_status_nouser = DUNNO quota_status_overquota = "552 5.2.2 Mailbox is full" } The above configurations is my default for all users. but my mail system is using mbox format and not maildir.... so what should i change in the above configuration to use mbox INSTEAD of maildir ?? Also for the quota paramater, can i use (myquota = maildir:User quota) INSTEAD of (quota = maildir:User quota) ?? or it must "QUOTA =" and not any thing else to work ? same for quota_rule parameter, should i add (_rule) after quota to work ??? can i add for example qouta_restriction INSTEAD of quota_rules ?? i am asking this question to better understand how dovecot work.. also last question when i use the following command to get quota for existing system user called michael , it gives me an error as follow, so why dovecot is not able to get the quota for the system users? doveadm quota get -u michael doveadm(michael): Fatal: User doesn't exist Many thanks >> Incase user is underquota, then the email is returned back to postfix for >> processing and delivering email to user mbox, incase user has no sufficient quota then dovecot will inform postfix to reject email. Please confirm if what i mentioned above is correct and that i >> understand >> correctly how dove-cot policy works with postfix. > Your understanding is mor or less correct, except that postfix never passes the email itself to dovecot when performing the quota check. It simply sends a message to the quota policy service asking if the recipient is over quota. If the recipient is over quota, dovecot provides postfix with the response configured in quota_status_overquota. If the recipient is under quota, dovecot provides postfix with the response configured in quota_status_success.

imap_logout_format improvements / ideas
by Timo Sirainen 03 Oct '15

03 Oct '15

http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/93bba97afb2a http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/e0a17714f0c9 So all in all, you can now add to imap_logout_format: # %i - total number of bytes read from client # %o - total number of bytes sent to client # %{fetch_hdr_count} - Number of mails with mail header data sent to client # %{fetch_hdr_bytes} - Number of bytes with mail header data sent to client # %{fetch_body_count} - Number of mails with mail body data sent to client # %{fetch_body_bytes} - Number of bytes with mail body data sent to client # %{deleted} - Number of mails where client added \Deleted flag # %{expunged} - Number of mails that client expunged # %{trashed} - Number of mails that client copied/moved to the # special_use=\Trash mailbox. Any thoughts on what else would be useful? I was also thinking about separating (deletes and) expunges from Trash vs non-Trash, but I'm not sure how useful that would be (and what would it be called?) It's also a bit annoying that a copy+expunge to a Trash will return expunged=1 trashed=1, but a move to Trash (via IMAP MOVE) will return expunged=0 trashed=1. But trying to fix that would be too much trouble.

/usr/lib/dovecot/imap exits with an error if stderr closed
by Josh Triplett 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

At the end of a direct IMAP conversation with the imap binary, it writes an informative message like "imap(josh): Info: Connection closed in=0 out=365" to stderr. With stderr closed, the imap binary will exit with exit code 81 after it gets EBADF from that write. While it makes sense to fail on failure to write an error message, I don't think it makes sense to fail if writing an info message fails. I encountered this when using /usr/lib/dovecot/imap with mutt's "tunnel" option. Mutt seems to run the configured tunnel program with stderr closed, which triggers this error. - Josh Triplett

Dovecot 1.0.10 - Authenticate against LDAP with multiple sub-trees
by Daniel Heitepriem 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

Hi guys, I'm using Dovecot 1.0.10 with LDAP authentication. Below is my dovecot-ldap.conf { hosts = *IP of LDAP server* auth_bind = yes auth_bind_userdn = uid=%u,ou=people,dc=*something*,dc=com ldap_version = 3 base = %u,ou=people,dc=*something*,dc=com deref = never scope = subtree user_filter = (&(objectClass=person)(uid=%u)) } And the current structure: Base | |-- people | | *user entries* | Now I want to update to a LDAP server with the following structure: Base | |-- people | |-- staff | | *user entries* |-- other location | | *user entries* | How can I keep my "auth_bind_userdn" using this new structure? Hopefully somebody can help me :) Regards, Daniel

I've added fts_lucene earlier, then removed /lucene-indexes dir. Tried to do doveadm index, (does doeveadm fts rescan/optimize work? I didn't notice that mentioned commands do something with fts indexes (both squat and lucene).

SiS and attachments filename
by Angel L. Mateo 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

Hi, I've been working with dovecot SiS for a long time without any problem. This is my configuration for SiS: mail_attachment_dir = /mail/users/attachments mail_attachment_fs = sis posix mail_attachment_hash = %{sha1} mail_attachment_min_size = 128 k With this configuration, I have, for example: # ls -l /mail/users/attachments/27/d1/27d1904ac9947945bf48ea545ec278940d840ed1* -rw------- 12 vmail vmail 142914 may 6 2013 /mail/users/attachments/27/d1/27d1904ac9947945bf48ea545ec278940d840ed1-090d88269ad28851f14b0000a9061514 ... And every file is a hard link to /mail/users/attachments/27/d1/hashes/27d1904ac9947945bf48ea545ec278940d840ed1 For the documentation I have found, "27d1904ac9947945bf48ea545ec278940d840ed1" is a hash of the attach content, but what does the other part of the filename (the "090d88269ad28851f14b0000a9061514" means) My question has come to my mind because I need an easy way to find the mailbox where this attach is referenced from. -- Angel L.

Re: [IMAP] Nothing in INBOX

Yvon Thoraval writes: > although I'm able to send emails to GMail and other kind of domain, nothing > appears on Thunderbird INBOX, nor using openssl : I haven't combed through your diagnostic, but two things junp out at me. Your "mail" output states > "/var/mail/desktop": 20 messages 9 new 18 unread indicating that the INBOX is held in /var/mail/desktop, whereas your dovecot configuration states > mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n So there seems to be a disagreement as to where the INBOX is located. Maybe you need to set the INBOX parameter directly. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>
