replication sieve settings
by Martin Schmidt 20 Oct '14

20 Oct '14

Hello, can someone give me a hint, where to find an info, how to setup dovecote replication with sieve? On my active.active setup, it replicates the user mdboxes and sieve works also, on the active destination fileserver. Client changes the sieve, tests work fine. But the sieve file won't get replicated to the replica server. As i've researched, it was introduced in dovecot v2.2.rc3 Is it default, that doveadm replicator replicate '*' includes the sieve and i made a config error? Or is there an option to set for the replication service? On dovecot director server, i've set director in conf.d/20-managesieve.conf service managesieve-login { executable = managesieve-login director inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } and added sieve to plugins in conf.d/20-lmtp.conf protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve } doveconf -n ... director_mail_servers = 192.168.200.10 192.168.200.11 director_servers = 192.168.200.1:9090 192.168.200.2:9090 disable_plaintext_auth = no doveadm_port = 24245 lmtp_proxy = yes 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 duplicate plugin { sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve } protocols = " imap lmtp sieve pop3" ... service managesieve-login { executable = managesieve-login director inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } ... protocol lmtp { auth_socket_path = director-userdb mail_plugins = " sieve" } ... Thank you Martin Schmidt Germany

fixes for quota support on NetBSD
by Thomas Klausner 20 Oct '14

20 Oct '14

Hi! dovecot-2.2.13 already has quota support for NetBSD, but it's buggy. The attached patches by Manuel Bouyer <bouyer(a)NetBSD.org> fix the issues. There is one thing that's not nice in them: one include is now for "/usr/include/quota.h" since dovecot comes with its own file "quota.h" which is earlier in the search path. Perhaps dovecot's copy can be renamed to dovecot-quota.h or to some other non-conflicting name? Cheers, Thomas

last_login plugin with MySQL
by Luigi Rosa 20 Oct '14

Hi, I have a Dovecot test installation with MySQL userbase and authentication where I am trying to setup last_login plugin with SQL dictionary I read http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/LastLogin and I addes this to my configuration plugin { last_login_dict = sql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext } mail_plugins = $mail_plugins stats protocol imap { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_stats last_login } When I log in with IMAP I get this error: Error: last_login_dict: dict_init(sql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext) failed: Unknown dict module: sql /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext is the file taht contains the SQL configuration. If I put mysql instead of sql the result is the same: Error: last_login_dict: dict_init(mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext) failed: Unknown dict module: mysql The output of doveconf -n follows. Do you have any idea on how to use MySQL for last_login?

Maybe I'm able to reproduce the problem. :-) It's Solaris10 nroff, and GNU groff 1.19.1. Ancient stuff so I wouldn't spend too much time looking at it.

Fwd: Re: Wiki advice on running getmail on INBOX access - how does that work?

Just re-tried this, and it doesn't seem to fire getmail on access for me. My incrontab is as follows: /home/user/Maildir/cur/ IN_ALL_EVENTS,IN_ONESHOT /home/user/bin/mvmail.sh The incrontab rule does work, but only if I make a physical change in /home/user/Maildir/cur/ e.g. by moving a mail from another folder in there. Just accessing the particular inbox doesn't seem to trigger anything.

sieve folder separator
by Thomas Koch 19 Oct '14

19 Oct '14

Hi, I'm moving from one email provider (me) to another (mailbox.org) and observed that the new provider uses "/" instead of "." as a folder separator. Now I need to adapt my sieve script. It's not too much work and I can even just define a variable at the beginning of my script: set "SEP" "/" But it would be great, if SIEVE would come with a predefined constant for the folder separator. Or does this already exists and I didn't find it? Thank you, Thomas Koch

Hi, I'm currently running getmail in a cron job every 2 minutes, so I was quite intrigued by this on the wiki: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/TriggerGetmailOnIMAPAccess Thing is - I couldn't see how it would work and, when I tried it, it didn't work (at least not for me). It details using incrontab to monitor /home/username/.maildir/cur in order to trigger getmail. However, "cur" won't change unless populated with mail...as an initial result of actually running getmail? Seems like a chicken and egg situation. I reckon I'm missing something fundamental :-), but what is it? Ta.

[Dovecot] Disk Encryption
by Simon Brereton 17 Oct '14

17 Oct '14

Hi As I understand it email headers need to be unencrypted (otherwise DKIM doesn't work). From the MUA to either Postfix, or Dovecot the connection is (or can/should be) secured with TLS/SSL. What I would like to know is if it is possible to encrypt the mailstore? Postfix is using Dovecot for delivery so it's only Dovecot that would need to encrypt/decrypt the mailstore. Is this possible? Is there a terrible reason to do it even if it is possible? I realise that from MTA to MTA there's no guarantee of encryption (and in fact it's very unlikely unless keys have been exchanged), but my primary goal is supplement the physical security of the mail store of mails we already have or have sent. Mostly just idle curiosity as to what has been done, or what could be done. What is worth doing is a separate thread entirely. Thanks. Simon

High memory usage
by Hanna Ruotsalainen 17 Oct '14

17 Oct '14

Hi I recently (about 2 weeks ago) moved over my users over to a new version of dovecot (2.0.9) and now the memory usage on the new server seems much higher than it was before. The new server is a CentOS 6 VM with 4 GB of RAM and 4 CPUs and according to top, it's used up all of the RAM and all of the Swap. Here's a sample of the output from top (sorted by allocated memory). top - 10:42:36 up 22 days, 21:57, 1 user, load average: 1.04, 1.40, 1.52 Tasks: 1643 total, 1 running, 1642 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 0.7%us, 0.7%sy, 0.0%ni, 93.3%id, 5.1%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.1%si, 0.0%st Mem: 3924432k total, 3779236k used, 145196k free, 23740k buffers Swap: 4063228k total, 3181164k used, 882064k free, 156420k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 16738 root 20 0 399m 182m 436 S 0.0 4.8 5:50.58 config 18790 dovenull 20 0 54528 11m 2036 S 0.0 0.3 0:00.05 imap-login 22277 dovenull 20 0 54528 11m 2156 S 0.0 0.3 0:00.04 imap-login 22796 dovenull 20 0 54528 11m 2140 S 0.0 0.3 0:00.03 imap-login 22749 dovenull 20 0 54528 11m 2148 S 0.0 0.3 0:00.03 imap-login 22825 dovenull 20 0 54528 11m 2156 S 0.0 0.3 0:00.03 imap-login This is with 1015 imap processes and 484 imap-login processes. The old version was 1.0.rc15 and running on a CentOS 4 box with 2GB of RAM.

replicating (manage)sieve - no symlink on replica?
by Philipp 17 Oct '14

17 Oct '14

2.2.13/0.4.2, both from source-tarball, no fancy options. tcp-replication between two nodes and following plugin parameters (same on both sides, except the ip-addr) plugin { sieve_before = /home/ssfn/etc/dovecot/sieve.default sieve_global_dir = /home/ssfn/etc/dovecot sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/.sieve sieve_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.duplicate sieve_duplicate_period = 6h mail_replica = tcp:10.66.50.15:9993 } mail_location = sdbox:/home/ssfn/var/mail/boxes/%n mail_home = /home/ssfn/var/mail/boxes/%n Testbed: user getting first email delivered, the subdir %n/.sieve/tmp is automatically created as expected. User logs into managesieve on node1 and uploads a script. The %n/.sieve/managesieve.sieve and the symlink .dovecot.sieve -> .sieve/managesieve.sieve is created as expected. One node2 (via replica) happens: automatically create %n/.sieve/tmp automatically create/sync %n/.sieve/managesieve.sieve just NOT the symlink .dovecot.sieve -> .sieve/managesieve.sieve Logfiles for lmtp,doveadm,dsync-local dont indicate an error why it could not create the link or such, to me it looks like it wouldnt even try. mail-syncing works flawlessly (for delivery, just read about the expunge .. hum.) I tried to force a full-resync via doveadm replicator afterwards, to no change on the matter. Any input?

Re: Unable to get virtual users set up with database auth
by Gedalya 17 Oct '14

When you reply, try to make sure you reply to the list (dovecot(a)dovecot.org) in Thunderbird you should have a Reply List button, or just use reply to all. btw I meant: the output of the 'dovecot -n' command, sorry :D OK so, first of all, lda doesn't do any passdb lookup at all, only userdb. It doesn't have any password to check. Just as a comment, your password query could just as well be: password_query = SELECT uPass as password FROM users WHERE uName = '%n' AND uDomain = '%d' auth_username_format = %Lu -- which I believe is set by default, would lowercase the username for you on the way in from the client, so if all your usernames are meant to be purely lowercase, there is no need to return these fields from the database. Set it explicitly just to be sure. You're using a somewhat old version, I'm not sure how it was back then. Either way, this shouldn't be affecting lda. Now, this seems to be wrong. mail_location = mbox:/var/spool/mail/%u:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u You probably want it more like: mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u The first value, ~/mail, will be a /mail directory under the 'home' directory set in your static userdb, and that's where mailboxes (folders) other than INBOX will be stored. It must be a directory, not a file! I'm a little confused about some of the other details in your log. Let's try to correct your mail_location first and see where that takes us. Also, under namespace, you might as well comment out the 'location = ' and 'prefix = ' lines, though I'm not sure it matters.

dsync duplicating identical messages
by Bruno Viaris 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

Dear list, I’m trying to setup dovecot/postfix/getmail for a single user application: I have 3 email accounts and 2 main computers (home and work). I want to have an imap server on each machine with sync/replication so that read/reply/delete status and sorting into folders are identical. This part is achieved via dsync and seems to work. Messages are fetched from my ISPs with getmail on both machines. The problem I have is that dsync does not see that a message already fetched on both sides is identical, and duplicates it. I use sdbox (because I like the compression option and the separate storage of attachments). The content of the messages (headers and body) are identical, but the sdbox files have differences in the header and/or trailer. In fact, for each incoming message, I get 4 slightly different files (2 on each machine). Do you know where I could find documentation on how dsync compares messages, and also on sdbox file format ? If you explain me that there is no way to prevent this duplication and that anyway dsync does the right thing, I will probably use getmail only on one machine and let dsync propagate the messages to the other site, but I will miss the redundancy (and some speed) of my wished setup... Thanks -- Bruno P.S. : Background: Home has DSL with 10 MBit/s down and 1 MBit/s up, and full control over NAT / firewall Work internet access is limited by the 100 MBit LAN and has strict firewall and complicated VPN. So it is not easy for my home email client to access the imap server of my work machine, and it is slow for my work email client to access my home imap server. I don’t trust any company for archiving my emails.

Unable to get virtual users set up with database auth
by Cliff Hayes 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

I can't seem to get imap virtual users to work with database authentication on new Scientific Linux 6.5 server with Sendmail 8.14.4 & Dovecot 2.0.9 Apparently I have to also create system users because sendmail/procmail/dovecot want to check directory ownership. So I created a database, made entry for the user, created the user chayes on the system. But %u always contains just chayes instead of chayes(a)domain.tld even though I tried different select statements to put the entire username in the username field. This causes the following errors: Oct 16 00:10:26 avalon sendmail[2536]: s9G5APo9002535: forward /var/spool/mail/chayes(a)domain.tld/chayes/.forward.avalon: Group writable directory Oct 16 00:10:26 avalon sendmail[2536]: s9G5APo9002535: forward /var/spool/mail/chayes(a)domain.tld/chayes/.forward: Group writable directory Oct 16 00:10:26 avalon dovecot: lda(chayes): Debug: Effective uid=497, gid=497, home=/var/spool/mail/chayes(a)domain.tld/chayes Oct 16 00:10:26 avalon dovecot: lda(chayes): Debug: Home dir not found: /var/spool/mail/chayes(a)domain.tld/chayes Oct 16 00:10:26 avalon dovecot: lda(chayes): Debug: Namespace : type=private, prefix=, sep=., inbox=yes, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=mbox:/var/spool/mail/chayes:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/chayes Oct 16 00:10:26 avalon dovecot: lda(chayes): Debug: fs: root=/var/spool/mail/chayes, index=, control=, inbox=/var/spool/mail/chayes Oct 16 00:10:26 avalon dovecot: lda(chayes): Error: user chayes: Initialization failed: Namespace '': mbox: mbox root directory can't be a file: /var/spool/mail/chayes (http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Mbox) Oct 16 00:10:26 avalon dovecot: lda(chayes): Fatal: Invalid user settings.

[Dovecot/VirtualUsers/VirtualMailBoxes] No mails into mua
by aleskandro 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

Hi all, I've configured postfix with multiple host and virtual mailboxes (main.cf is here: http://pastebin.com/798VVxbv) So I can receive email to vuser(a)mydomain.tld into /var/mail/vhosts/mydomain.tld/vuser file. Now I'm configuring dovecot 2.2.13-r1; this is my dovecot -n and /etc/dovecot/passwddir/mydomain.tld/passwd: http://pastebin.com/b4xcjj7t - The auth and server subscribe from a mua is ok and in the vuser file there are some mails but I can't see them in my mua. mail.log doesn't report any error. Where I'm wrong? Aleskandro

Strange quota warning behavior
by Gordon Grubert 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

Hi, we are using dovecot 2.2.14. So far, we used the following quota warning configuration quota_rule = *:storage=10G quota_warning = storage=90%% quota-warning 90 %n quota_warning2 = storage=80%% quota-warning 80 %n quota_warning3 = storage=70%% quota-warning 70 %n This works fine. Now, we wanted to add the all clear feature for the quota warning by adding this line: quota_warning4 = -storage=70%% quota-warning 70 %n below The result is really strange. Test 1: 70% exceeded: warning3 executed => OK fall below 70%: quota_warning2 executed => NOT OK quota_warning4 executed => OK Test 2: 70% exceeded: warning3 executed => OK 80% exceeded: warning2 executed => OK fall below 80% (but still more than 70%): quota_warning executed => NOT OK fall below 70%: quota_warning2 executed => NOT OK quota_warning4 executed => OK At the moment, we are running the minimal configuration quota_warning = storage=70%% quota-warning 70 %n quota_warning2 = -storage=70%% quota-warning 70 %n below working like expected (warning when exceeding 70% and all clear when falling below 70%). Does anybody know if there is an error in our configuration or maybe, could this be a bug in dovecot? Best regards, Gordon -- Technischer Leiter & stellv.

index problem with only 1 folder of 1 box
by Guillaume 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

Hello, First of all, sorry for my poor english level. I pass to solr indexing. All is OK, except for the inbox of one of the mailboxes. For this inbox (other folders of the same mailbox have no problems), when i do text search, there is always no response. Others mailboxes have no problems. If i do a : "doveadm -Dv fts rescan -u mybox(a)domain.tld", i can do one and only one search with the correct response. It index the folder, take a few seconds and give me the good answer. If i redo the same search, it's extremly quick with no answers. It's like a cache problem but i don't know where and why... Logs are not very verbose...

Cut&pasted off the terminal man page output. Looking into man1/doveadm-move.1, I see .B doveadm move \-u jane Archive/2011/09 mailbox INBOX BEFORE \(rs .B 2011-10-01 SINCE 01-Sep-2011 so it's a problem with my nroff, not dovecot's man pages.

Yes, this makes much more sense. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

pop3-login segfaulting
by James Shewey 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

I upgraded dovecot from v1 to v2 as part of a CentOS upgrade (5.6->6.5) and am now running on 2.0.9. Any time I connect to the pop or imap ports however I get "master: Error: service(imap-login): child 2860 killed with signal 11 (core not dumped - add -D parameter to service imap-login { executable }" after following the core dump instructions at http://www.dovecot.org/bugreport.html. The problem is that I'm not sure how these processes are spawned in order to add the switch. Can I spawn them directly? If so, I ought to be able to do an strace to track down the issue as well.

Permissions problem on new installation
by Cliff Hayes 15 Oct '14

15 Oct '14

I am setting up a new mail server using imap only on Scientific Linux 6.5 and dovecot 2.0.9. How do I fix this problem? I keep getting these errors regardless of permissions ... even up to 777. Oct 15 13:56:01 avalon dovecot: imap(chayes(a)domain.tld): Error: opendir(/var/email/chayes(a)domain.tld/Maildir) failed: Permission denied (euid=497(chayes) egid=12(mail) missing +r perm: /var/email/chayes(a)domain.tld/Maildir, euid is not dir owner) Oct 15 13:56:01 avalon dovecot: imap(chayes(a)domain.tld): Error: opendir(/var/email/chayes(a)domain.tld/Maildir) failed: Permission denied (euid=497(chayes) egid=12(mail) missing +r perm: /var/email/chayes(a)domain.tld/Maildir, euid is not dir owner) Oct 15 13:56:01 avalon dovecot: imap(chayes(a)domain.tld): Error: opendir(/var/email/chayes(a)domain.tld/Maildir/new) failed: Permission denied (euid=497(chayes) egid=12(mail) missing +r perm: /var/email/chayes(a)domain.tld/Maildir/new, euid is not dir owner) Oct 15 13:56:07 avalon dovecot: imap(chayes(a)domain.tld): Error: opendir(/var/email/chayes(a)domain.tld/Maildir/new) failed: Permission denied (euid=497(chayes) egid=12(mail) missing +r perm: /var/email/chayes(a)domain.tld/Maildir/new, euid is not dir owner) Yet when i check, chayes is directory owner as follows (currently showing 760 but I've tried everything): drwx------. 3 chayes mail 4096 Oct 15 12:56 chayes(a)domain.tld drwxrwx---. 6 chayes mail 4096 Oct 15 13:55 Maildir drwxrw----. 2 chayes mail 4096 Oct 15 12:56 cur -rw-------. 1 chayes mail 104 Oct 15 12:56 dovecot.index.log -rw-------. 1 chayes mail 0 Oct 15 12:56 dovecot.mailbox.log -rw-------. 1 chayes mail 51 Oct 15 12:56 dovecot-uidlist drwxrw----. 2 chayes mail 4096 Oct 15 12:56 new -rw-------. 1 chayes mail 6 Oct 15 12:56 subscriptions drwxrw----. 2 chayes mail 4096 Oct 15 12:56 tmp dovecot config: protocols = imap mail_access_groups=mail mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir Thanks in advance.

EXAMPLE Move janes messages - received in September 2011 - from her INBOX into her archive. doveadm move -u jane Archive/2011/09 mailbox 2011-10-01 SINCE 01-Sep-2011 [Is this a typo: "2011-10-01" should be "INBOX"?] The example is fairly close to what you want. Apart from the obvious change to user and mailbox name, the condition would be "savedbefore ${NN}d". You might have to follow this up with an expunge if this operation does not do that.
