Fatal: Unknown scheme: SHA512-CRYPT. On a Mac-mini
by Robert Chalmers 02 May '15

02 May '15

Running postfix+dovecot+mysql on a mac-mini, and trying to solve this puzzle. Is this a Mac issue?, a MySQL issue? or something I haven't configured in? You can see from the output of the samples shows in the first case, that SHA512-CRYPT seems to be Unknown. The code I used is from a Linux based tutorial on setting up Postfix+Dovecot+MySQL on a site. Everything is generally going ok, apart from this bit. There are some others unknown as well. The codes used to create my database of passwords follows these output examples. MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA512-CRYPT -p 123456 Fatal: Unknown scheme: SHA512-CRYPT MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA512 -p 123456 {SHA512}ujJTh2rta8ItSm/1PYQGxq2GQZXtFEq1yHYhtsIztUi66uaVbfNG7IwX9eoQ817jy8UUeX7X3dMUVGTioLq0Ew== MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA256 -p 123456 {SHA256}jZae727K08KaOmKSgOaGzww/XVqGr/PKEgIMkjrcbJI= MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s MD5 -p 123456 {MD5}$1$.mAQzPhO$6v/WxTUt.Y1lhopkMarEb0 MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s MD5-CRYPT -p 123456 {MD5-CRYPT}$1$gNkYwx/o$3nQLmUIPOBmZdR/e/EXFV1 MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s BLF-CRYPT -p 123456 Fatal: Unknown scheme: BLF-CRYPT MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA512 -p 1pass66U! {SHA512}EuuO6BAt+bgzXIOw7XIdiVBFwdEZ2tGqHOJ/DSTSkD+ikw7GQQo+KtHSta7p3KNv2AEVKtfOuyl5UeCEqnKogg== MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA256-CRYPT -p 1pass66U!

Which seems to work fine, and creates the table as it should - even though the resulting password doesn't appear to be quite right for SHA512-CRYPT INSERT INTO `mailserver`.`virtual_users` (`id`, `domain_id`, `password` , `email`) VALUES ('1', '1', ENCRYPT('firstpassword', CONCAT('$6$', SUBSTRING(SHA(RAND()), -16))), 'email1(a)example.com'), ('2', '1', ENCRYPT('secondpassword', CONCAT('$6$', SUBSTRING(SHA(RAND()), -16))), 'email2(a)example.com'); What it actually creates is this: This is not a SHA512-CRYPT password?? mysql> SELECT * FROM mailserver.virtual_users; 3 | 1 | $6jxK9DWPBrAc | robert(a)zeus.example.com Just to be clear,. this is the section of the Dovecot configs that deals with handling this. BUT.. On the MAC-Mini, SHA512-CrYPT is unknown. # List of supported schemes is in # http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/PasswordSchemes # default_pass_scheme = SHA512-CRYPT So the question is, what Encryption should I be using, and is this an Apple thing, or a MySQL thing?

Postpone email delivery with LMTP and Postfix
by Miloslav Hůla 01 May '15

01 May '15

Hi, is there any way, based on userdb/passwdb attribute, how to postpone an email delivery? The purpose is, I need to freeze an account (Maildir++) for a few minutes and new email must not be delivered. But emails must be delivered when account is unfrozen. I found few things about Postfix filters, but I'm not sure it's a good way. Thank you, Milo

A question about Configure time options, and base directories and Defaults?
by Robert Chalmers 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

I originally downloaded the sources a few weeks ago, dovecot-2.2.16, and simply did a ./configure make make install I'm running OSX 10.10.3 on a mac-mini. Not being too sure that I was going to go ahead with this whole idea... in any event, I did. BUT... most documentation I come across as I search for answers refers to the base directories being below /etc - as in postfix actually. ie; /etc/dovecot /etc/postfix Which seems logical to me - and appears to be a "default" or standard, at least in most documentation. However, my cavaliere installation put everything below /usr/local, as in /usr/local/etc/dovecot Which has caused me no end of fiddling as I try and remember where things are when I'm working on config files. There even appears to be a /private/etc/dovecot folder, which I seem to have somehow created about a month ago??? but is empty anyway. So, on my Mac I now have these folders/directories. These may have been created by a previous attempt, or by an installation to CutedgeSystems Mailserve. Now redundant. /private/etc/dovecot <---- empty /private/etc/pam.d/dovecot <--- contains login, pop3, ssh etc etc /private/var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot <-- this is a link to the one just above ??? or the other one is a link to this? /usr/libexec/dovecot <-- this contains a link to dovecot-lda [dovecot-lda -> /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda] that I put in myself because that's where dovecot was looking for it. ========= everything below this line is as a result of the installation from source /usr/local/cutedge/dovecot /usr/local/etc/dovecot /usr/local/include/dovecot /usr/local/lib/dovecot /usr/local/libexec/dovecot /usr/local/sbin/dovecot /usr/local/share/doc/dovecot /usr/local/var/lib/dovecot /usr/local/var/run/dovecot I see from this list in someone else's post, that it's obviously possible - and I should have remembered - to put the files where ever I want them. i.e. /etc/dovecot If I read this list right, it will put the installation into /etc/dovecot - with some in other, appropriate directories. NOT all below /user/local as I have done. --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --libexecdir=\${prefix}/lib \ --localstatedir=/var \ --mandir=\${prefix}/share/man \ --infodir=\${prefix}/share/info \ --with-moduledir=\${prefix}/lib/dovecot/modules \ --disable-rpath \ --disable-static Now for the burning question. Is it possible now to re-configure, then reinstall into the more appropriate directories, then copy the configuration files over. Make the appropriate weeks, and remove the original /usr/local/xxxx installation? Or is that just a step too far for the sake of what is essentially window dressing. The system I might add appears to be working as is? Thanks for any advice from the experts. (Sorry if the formatting in this post gets screwed up. It;s gmail;s web interface) Robert

doveadm -D and -v options

According to doveadm-dsync man page the above two options are valid, but they are rejected when used: tornado # doveadm backup -v -u testuser remote:pi.me.name:4814 backup: invalid option -- 'v' doveadm backup [-u <user>|-A] [-S <socket_path>] [-fPRU] [-l <secs>] [-r <rawlog path>] [-m <mailbox>] [-g <mailbox_guid>] [-n <namespace> | -N] [-x <exclude>] [-s <state>] -d|<dest> tornado # tornado # doveadm backup -D -u testuser remote:pi.me.name:4814 backup: invalid option -- 'D' doveadm backup [-u <user>|-A] [-S <socket_path>] [-fPRU] [-l <secs>] [-r <rawlog path>] [-m <mailbox>] [-g <mailbox_guid>] [-n <namespace> | -N] [-x <exclude>] [-s <state>] -d|<dest> tornado # This is with 2.2.16 (latest -hg). Looks to me like either a bug, or the documentation (man doveadm-sync) is incorrect...? Reuben

quota_over_flag examples?
by E.B. 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

I can't find any posts on this list for peoples using quota_over_flag http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration#Overquota-flag_.28v2.2.16.2B-.… If my userdb is sql what would be best script to use in terms of performance? (I mean if over-quota-flag triggers script every time it changes and the script calls CLI mysql client isn't all this so expensive to spawn a new shell session which spawns a mysql client?) Anyone knows how to use this flag with postfix *making postfix send special reject* "user over quota" note instead of plain SMTP reject?? Is an additional database lookup (restriction class?) unavoidable? :( TIA1 PS Looks like it is tricky almost impossible to make postfix do rejects based on this flag for aliases. (Special query would be a little messy for our schema but i dunno at what point postfix resolves aliases?)

lda and lmtp error after upgrading dovecot
by giorgio paolucci 29 Apr '15

Hello everybody, after upgrading dovecot on a debian wheezy installation from the standard package version (dovecot 2.1.7) to dovecot 2.2.13-11 from wheezy-backports, i noticed some errors in my logs...

Trash Plugin bugs
by Alexei Gradinari 29 Apr '15

29 Apr '15

dovecot v2.2.16 I've found a few bugs in Trash plugin. 1. If Quota set only messages limit (without storage limit) then Trash plugin does not expunge any message because Quota plugin sets too_large_r=TRUE. It's because quota_default_test_alloc function does not check if bytes_limit is set. /* if size is bigger than any limit, then it is bigger than the lowest limit */ - if (size > bytes_limit) { + if (bytes_limit > 0 && size > bytes_limit) { *too_large_r = TRUE; break; } 2. Trash plugin does not use bytes_ceil/count_ceil to calculate size_needed/count_needed to expunge. Trash plugin may expunge more messages that nedeed. + if (ctx->bytes_ceil!=(uint64_t)-1 && ctx->bytes_ceil < size + ctx->bytes_over) { + size_needed = size + ctx->bytes_over - ctx->bytes_ceil; + } + if (ctx->count_ceil!=(uint64_t)-1 && ctx->count_ceil < 1 + ctx->count_over) { + count_needed = 1 + ctx->count_over - ctx->count_ceil; + } + /* not enough space. try deleting some from mailbox. */ - ret = trash_try_clean_mails(ctx, size + ctx->bytes_over, - 1 + ctx->count_over); + ret = trash_try_clean_mails(ctx, size_needed, count_needed); 3. Trash plugin does not check 'unlimited' values in bytes_ceil/count_ceil and may overflow them when add expunged size/messages - ctx->bytes_ceil += size_expunged; - ctx->count_ceil += expunged_count; + if (ctx->bytes_ceil!=(uint64_t)-1) { + ctx->bytes_ceil += size_expunged; + } + if (ctx->count_ceil!=(uint64_t)-1) { + ctx->count_ceil += expunged_count; + } See attached patch.

[patch] TLS Handshake failures can crash imap-login
by Hanno Böck 27 Apr '15

27 Apr '15

Hi, I tracked down a tricky bug in dovecot that can cause the imap-login and pop3-login processes to crash on handshake failures. This can be tested by disabling SSLv3 in the dovecot config (ssl_protocols = !SSLv2 !SSLv3) and trying to connect with openssl and forced sslv3 (openssl s_client -ssl3 -connect localhost:995). This would cause a crash. What was going on is this: In ssl-proxy-openssl.c in line 545 in the function ssl_step() the function ssl_handshake() is called. There SSL_accept() is called. If SSL_accept failes - because a client sent an invalid packet or something the server doesn't support or any other reason - ssl_handle_error() will be called. ssl_handle_error() will call ssl_proxy_destroy(). ssl_proxy_destroy() will then call ssl_proxy_flush(). And ssl_proxy_flush will call ssl_step() again. Here we have a loop. Now when SSL_accept() gets called again on the same context this is an invalid state for OpenSSL and it crashes. What to do? In essence, if ssl_proxy_destroy is called it shouldn't try to finish the handshake if the handshake hasn't even started due to an error. This can be done by a simple if check, see attached patch. I think this should do it. I have seen that a bug that is probably rootet in this has been posted here before regarding ssl3-disabled configs: http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2015-March/100188.html cu, -- Hanno Böck http://hboeck.de/ mail/jabber: hanno(a)hboeck.de GPG: BBB51E42

Using Identities to send Emails, question on Email Storage
by Kevin Laurie 27 Apr '15

27 Apr '15

hi, i was wondering that when sending mail with a different identity(bob(a)mydomain.com using help(a)mydomain.com identity), why does it not copy the message to help(a)mydomain.com(Sent box). instead it only shows it on bob(a)mydomain.com(Sent box). appreciate if someone could advise. could someone advise how to fix this as i would like to see the message in help(a)mydomain.com(SentBox) too. thanks kevin

prefetch not working (for me) on ldap user backend

Dear Sir, I'm having problems with the implementation of prefetch userdb. Following the directives from the site (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/Prefetch) I am unable to avoid the second search to the user backend (ldap).

Auth-worker, Unknown User

Hi list, I'm running Debian Jessie (8). I have Postfix and Dovecot working successfully. I attempted to setup LMTP in order to enable sieve support, but it seems I was not successful. Dovecot version 2.2.13. Postfix accepts an incoming test mail I sent, then tries to deliver it to Dovecot via LMTP: dovecot: lmtp(13493): Connect from local dovecot: auth-worker(13495): pam(srg(a)example.com): unknown user dovecot: lmtp(13493): Disconnect from local: Successful quit Postfix then bounces my mail with a "550 User doesn't exist." It seems that Dovecot is trying to lookup my whole address (srg(a)example.com) in PAM instead of just the username ("srg"), which does exist. What can I do to avoid this? I have searched the internet about this and found a few references to "args = %s" and "args = username_format=%n" for passdb and/or userdb, but I have tried both (restarting Dovecot) to no avail. Thank you! `doveconf -n` below: # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-042stab103.6 x86_64 Debian 8.0 auth_verbose = yes first_valid_uid = 1000 last_valid_uid = 1000 listen = 167.114.96.243, 2607:5300:100:200::fce lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox = yes mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir 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 } plugin { recipient_delimiter = + sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = " imap lmtp" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { port = 0 } } service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.cacert.pem ssl_cipher_list = HIGH:!aNULL:!eNULL:!EXP:!SSLv2 ssl_dh_parameters_length = 2048 ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.privkey.pem ssl_prefer_server_ciphers = yes ssl_protocols = TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2 userdb { driver = passwd } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = sieve }

Hi, at moment I have this environment: CentOS nginx + phpfpm Dovecot, with Maildir format Postfix Roundcube MySQL backend about 10000 mailusers dual core Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.00GHz 8 GB RAM network storage device (Coraid), ext4 file system I have no performance issue now, but I need to move to a different server: FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE nginx + phpfpm Dovecot Postfix Roundcube dual core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 5120 @ 1.86GHz 16 GB RAM local storage with zfs file system My question is: is better to use SQLite instead of MySQL? Should I prefer dbox format? Thank you in advance for your opinion!
