dsync annoyances
by Alan McGinlay 23 Sep '14

23 Sep '14

Hi! Every time I run dsync for a user against an old Cyrus server, the users mailbox in Dovecot increases by several hundred MB, these are not new emails. So the first dsync run gets the whole mailbox and subsequent runs get a bunch of duplicates or what? doveadm purge clears them all out but why is dsync behaving like this? I didn't happen in previous versions (2.2.13)

[wishlist] testsuite for sieve scripts, libsievetest
by Thomas Koch 23 Sep '14

23 Sep '14

Hi, I'm writing a test suite with Haskell for my sieve script. - Just to learn Haskell. But it might become something usable. The test suite calls sieve-test and parses the output. So it would of course be much simpler for me if the output of sieve-test would be easier to parse and if I'd know what output to expect. And it would be nice, if there would be an easy way to embed libsievetest as a C library. I looked into the source and the sieve-test binary does quite a bit of setup. This might be a nice hacking project for a beginner... BTW: It would be nice, if I could just 'git clone' dovecot. Thank you for dovecot!

doveadm with multiple instances on same machine(s)
by Will Yardley 22 Sep '14

22 Sep '14

Couple questions about running doveadm with multiple instances... I have Dovecot 2.2.13 on RHEL6 running across 3 boxes, each with a director and main instance running. When I try to lookup something on the main instance (which is handling user auth) via its auth-userdb socket directly, I get an error: # doveadm auth lookup -a /var/run/dovecot-main/auth-userdb myuser doveadm(root): Error: passdb lookup failed for myuser: Configured passdbs don't support crentials lookups When I use the default lookup map, I just get the proxy settings that are configured in the director instance's authdb. # doveadm auth lookup myuser passdb: myuser user : myuser proxy : y nopassword: y In addition, "doveadm director map" can't map the username -I get the error: doveadm(root): Error: User listing returned failure doveadm(root): Error: user listing failed [then I get the whole list, but with <unknown> for each user] The director itself doesn't have the LDAP passdb that the main dovecot instance talks to, but I have, in the director config: service doveadm { inet_listener { port = 8889 } } director_doveadm_port = 8889 local 192.168.x.x/24 { doveadm_password = XXXXXX } doveadm_proxy_port = 8888 And in the main config: service doveadm { inet_listener { port = 8888 } } local 192.168.x.x/24 { doveadm_password = XXXXXXX ## same password as above }

sieve redirect to foreign email gets “Relay access denied”
by Henry Stack 22 Sep '14

22 Sep '14

I have a postfix mail server with sql authentication and I want to implement sieve on it. Sieve is working relative good, rules who contain 'fileinto' are executed perfectly. The problem is the redirect to other servers. I configured a rule in Sieve to redirect any email containing "redirect" in subject to a specified foreign destination. # So practically a email coming from sender(a)live.de for the local user testuser(a)server.net should be redirected to destination(a)gmail.com when the subject contains "redirect" if header :contains ["subject"] ["redirect"] {redirect "destination(a)gmail.com"; stop;} when I test it I get the following log entry /postfix/smtpd[32114]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from mail.server.net[xx.xx.xx.xx]: 554 5.7.1 <destination(a)gmail.com>: Relay access denied; from=<sender(a)live.de> to=<destination(a)gmail.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<mail.server.net>/ How can I tell postfix to let dovecot/sieve relay the email?

Authentication using AD : bug ?
by Nicolas Cauchie 22 Sep '14

22 Sep '14

Hello, I've setup a mail server (still in test) with Postfix and Dovecot, authentication made using Active Directory. I authenticate my test user in AD well in Dovecot. However, if I change this user's password in AD, the old password still works for authentication in Dovecot and the new is working too. Is there a time to make Dovecot don't "remember" the old password or is it a bug ? Restarting Dovecot don't solve the problem. Do you already heard about this ? Please tell me what conf files you maybe need. Thanks in advance Nicolas signature -----

Re: LDAP and dovecot
by dovecot＠outputservices.com 22 Sep '14

22 Sep '14

For the record. I compiled dovecot to use the openldap libraries my openldap server uses. My email server and ldap server are on two different machines. So I just copied over my ldap libraries and placed them in the correct place and then compiled dovecot. I saw this clue in a different web page. Something about Solaris ldap libraries being bad. CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/openldap/include \ > LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/openldap/lib -R/usr/local/openldap/lib' \ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/tools/dovecot --with-ssl=openssl --with-solr --with-zlib --with-bzlib --with-ldap=yes This now allows me to authenticate with my openldap server. I am NOW able to authenticate to my ldap server. So my final configuration is: dovecot -n # 2.2.10: /usr/local/tools/dovecot/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: SunOS 5.10 i86pc base_dir = /dovecot/var/run/dovecot log_path = /dovecot/log/log mail_location = mbox:~/posta:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:LAYOUT=maildir++:INDEX=~/posta/index:CONTROL=~/posta/control passdb { args = /dovecot/etc/dovecot/conf.d/ldap.settings driver = ldap } protocols = imap service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 } } ssl_cert = </dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </dovecot/certs/dovecot.key ssl_prefer_server_ciphers = yes userdb { args = /dovecot/etc/dovecot/conf.d/ldap.settings driver = ldap } /dovecot/etc/dovecot/conf.d/ldap.settings hosts = ldap.outputservices.com tls = no auth_bind = yes ldap_version = 3 base = dc=ldap,dc=outputservices,dc=com Thank you all.

X-DOVECOT capabilities
by Timo Sirainen 22 Sep '14

22 Sep '14

Dovecot has a few hidden features currenly, which I know some webmails have been hardcoded to use. Maybe it would be nice to have these available in a bit more globally usable way and advertise some kind of X-DOVECOT capability? I don't really like the idea of having a ton of separate X-DOVECOT-* capabilities. Maybe instead just have X-DOVECOT-1 for the current functionality and when more is added X-DOVECOT-2 etc? Then describe in Dovecot wiki page what they actually contain. Thoughts? The current list of features are at least: - STATUS (X-SIZE): Sum of all RFC822.SIZEs in a mailbox. (More efficient than FETCHing them.) - STATUS (X-GUID): Show mailbox's GUID. - SEARCH X-SAVEDBEFORE, X-SAVEDON, X-SAVEDSINCE: Search with message's saved-timestamp. - FETCH X-SAVEDATE: Fetch message's saved-timestamp. - SEARCH & FETCH X-GUID: Search/fetch message GUID - SEARCH X-MAILBOX, FETCH X-MAILBOX, FETCH X-REAL-UID: With virtual mailboxes search/fetch the mail's physical mailbox name and message UID. - X-CANCEL <tag>: Stop a (long-running) command, which once in a while goes back to the main loop. For example SEARCH or FETCH.

how to solve : Dovecot version mismatch: Master is v2.1.7, lmtp is v2.2.13
by Dave Myers 22 Sep '14

22 Sep '14

Hello again dovecot list ;) I've recently upgraded my dovecot version from 2.1.7 to 2.2.13. both versions where installed from source. I upgraded why attempting to get lmtp working. I ultimately just coped the executable lmtp to the location that dovecot was expecting it to be in. but then the above error appeared. However when I get the info from dovecot I get the following... $ dovecot -n # 2.2.13: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf so there seems to be an issue somewhere. I should note that I had copied my previous /conf.d/ files and then copied them back after the update. I guess that I have missed a switch during the build, or need to modify a line in the config somewhere that tells what the version is, but that doesn't explain why the dovecot -n returns the correct info, but the error reports something different. I am considering inserting the version_ignore=yes config option, but where should I insert it ? Thanks in advance.

dovecot´s multiple quota roots
by Andreas Kasenides 22 Sep '14

22 Sep '14

I am trying to find out how Dovecot behaves when there are multiple quota roots. I could not find something authoritative on this. For example, on a nicely running server that used fs quota I now have in 90-quota.conf > plugin { > quota = fs:Mail Quota:user:mount=/Mail > quota2 = maildir:Mail User Quota > } When I do > > doveadm quota get -u atrige01 > Quota name Type Value Limit > % > Mail Quota STORAGE 80036 204800 > 39 > Mail User Quota STORAGE 79306 - > 0 > Mail User Quota MESSAGE 304 - > 0 Apparently both STORAGE quotas values are the same. The question is which of the two is being used by Dovecot. If I insert a limit on the maildir quota which of the two will be used? I am using Dovecot 2.2.12. thank you

Heya, does dovecot support "numeric only" usernames (in format "^0-9+$")? We are unable to deliver emails to such usernames via LMTP: Sep 22 08:41:05 razor4 postfix/lmtp[2120]: D4FD91CDC11F: to=<231588(a)example.org>, relay=example.org[private/dovecot-lmtp], delay=217653, delays=217653/0.01/0.02/0, dsn=4.2.0, status=deferred (host example.org[private/dovecot-lmtp] said: 451 4.2.0 <231588(a)example.org> Permission denied (in reply to end of DATA command)) On normal username format (^[a-z][-a-z0-9]+$) everything is working fine.

Thank you all for your assistance. I was able to locate another web site that mentioned I needed to compile dovecot with my openldap libraries. I then compiled dovecot in the following manner: CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/openldap/include \ LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/openldap/lib -R/usr/local/openldap/lib' \ ./configure --prefix=/tmp/tocevod --with-ssl=openssl --with-solr --with-zlib --with-bzlib --with-ldap=yes This then included the openldap libraries. I tested access and now it works. ldd on /dovecot/libexec/dovecot/auth showed the openldap libraries. libdovecot.so.0 => /usr/local/tools/dovecot/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0 libpam.so.1 => /usr/lib/libpam.so.1 libldap-2.4.so.2 => /usr/local/openldap/lib/libldap-2.4.so.2 libsasl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libsasl.so.1 libssl.so.0.9.7 => /usr/sfw/lib/libssl.so.0.9.7 libcrypto.so.0.9.7 => /usr/sfw/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7 liblber-2.4.so.2 => /usr/local/openldap/lib/liblber-2.4.so.2 libresolv.so.2 => /usr/lib/libresolv.so.2 libgen.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgen.so.1 librt.so.1 => /usr/lib/librt.so.1 libnsl.so.1 => /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1 libsocket.so.1 => /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1 libsendfile.so.1 => /usr/lib/libsendfile.so.1 libc.so.1 => /usr/lib/libc.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/sfw/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 libcmd.so.1 => /usr/lib/libcmd.so.1 libmd.so.1 => /usr/lib/libmd.so.1 libaio.so.1 => /usr/lib/libaio.so.1 libmp.so.2 => /usr/lib/libmp.so.2 libscf.so.1 => /usr/lib/libscf.so.1 libdoor.so.1 => /usr/lib/libdoor.so.1 libuutil.so.1 => /usr/lib/libuutil.so.1 libssl_extra.so.0.9.7 => /usr/sfw/lib/libssl_extra.so.0.9.7 libcrypto_extra.so.0.9.7 => /usr/sfw/lib/libcrypto_extra.so.0.9.7 libm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libm.so.2 Thanks again.

Support of unicode in then recipient names
by Александр Егоров 19 Sep '14

19 Sep '14

Hi Dovecot Community, We are using ltmp to deliver messages through postfix to dovecot. During testing we have found that dovecot does not understand recipient email address if it is composed from national symbols : e.g. ยจฆฟคฏข(a)xn--22cdfh1b8fsa.xn--22cdfh1b8fsa Question is are there any plans to either add native support for such email addresses or to translate it to punycode and then try to find such a recipient? -- Александр Егоров (Alexander Yegorov)

Syslog PID

Hi! How to write PIDs to syslog? Example: Sep 19 00:57:00 hostname dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=< username(a)domainname.com >, method=PLAIN, rip=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, lip=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, mpid=14407, TLS, session=<6LYlcmYDAQC4reGs> Sep 19 00:57:00 hostname dovecot: pop3( username(a)domainname.com ): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0 Sep 19 00:57:09 hostname exim[14423]: 2014-09-19 00:57:09 dovecot_login authenticator failed for s16010629.onlinehome-server.info (User) [82.165.16.9]: 535 Incorrect authentication data (set_id=front) Sep 19 00:57:09 hostname exim[14424]: 2014-09-19 00:57:09 dovecot_login authenticator failed for s16010629.onlinehome-server.info (User) [82.165.16.9]: 535 Incorrect authentication data (set_id=front I need it because i write all logs to postgresql and analyze them with Adiscon LogAnalyzer. Perhaps, per-process logs entry with PID would be better.

unable to see mail when using telnet / open ssl

Dear dovecot list. I'm setting up my own VPS and working through getting mail to work. Here is my dovecot -n $dovecot -n maildir:%h/%d/%n/mail : layout=fs # 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 x86_64 Debian 6.0.3 auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_mechanisms = plain login cram-md5 auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = plain lda_mailbox_autocreate = yes log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log mail_debug = yes mail_gid = 1002 mail_home = /var/mail/virtual/%d/%n mail_location = maildir:~/mail: layout=fs mail_uid = 1002 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 { args = scheme=SHA512-CRYPT username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } protocols = imap service auth { unix_listener auth-client { mode = 0660 user = mail } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } } ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } userdb { driver = passwd } verbose_ssl = yes I can successfully log into dovecot using telnet and open ssl from a remote terminal, so authentication and everything is working fine. From the above dovecot -n I asume that mails should be going to /var/mail/virtual/domain/user/mail However when I view this directory I can see a number of test mails that I have sent using echo "Hello me" | mail -s "Dovecot test" $USER (see http://wiki2.dovecot.org/FindMailLocation) Why am I not seeing them when I use telnet / openSSL to log in? All help is greately appreciated. -- Tel: + 33 6 50 14 39 34 email: david.myers.24j74(a)gmail.com Addres: 22 Rue de L'Eglise 77700 Coupvray. 77700 France

negative auth cache?
by Will Yardley 19 Sep '14

19 Sep '14

I am using Dovecot 2.2.13, which doesn't yet seem to have the $auth_cache_negative parameter. Should the negative cache value honor $auth_cache_ttl then? I had a problem where some of our ldap systems were reinitialized. Some users, presumably those who tried to login while their records were returning a failure, became unable to login after the records were once again returning normally. I currently have: auth_cache_size = 5 M auth_cache_ttl = 5 mins # Not yet implemented #auth_cache_negative = 2 mins yet the problem seemed to persist for more than an hour. Also, how can I flush the cache for a non-default instance's cache using doveadm -- "doveadm auth cache flush" doesn't seem to have an '-a' option AFAICT. # doveadm auth usage: doveadm [-Dv] [-f <formatter>] auth <command> [<args>] cache flush w

LDAP and dovecot
by dovecot＠outputservices.com 19 Sep '14

19 Sep '14

At my company I have users who are now becoming remote and using their mobile devices for email. I use Solaris 10 10/09 s10x_u8wos_08a X86 as an operating system and I now need a more secure email solution than the generic sendmail / imap solution. I want to use dovecot and postfix because I have read good reports on these products for ease of setup and use. I need to use both with SSL certificates and username / passwords for both receiving and sending emails. I am having difficulty getting dovecot to work with my ldap password solution. I have read all the documentation, there is a lot of it, and find it confusing. But I have tried very hard to get the solution to work. I have not compiled postfix because I want to use the dovecot authentication solution it mentions. Therefore I need to get dovecot to work first. I have dovecot 2.2.10 & postfix 2.11.1 with openldap 2.4.33. I have tested dovecot with /etc/passwd /etc/shadow password authentication and password flat files. Those work, but not what I need. I need to use ldap so the users only have to set one password. Below is the information I have. I have created self signed SSL certificates for testing purposes. We will get real SSL certificates once everything is operational. ********* I compiled dovecot with the following command: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/tools/dovecot --with-ssl=openssl --with-solr --with-zlib --with-bzlib --with-ldap=yes ------------------------------------------- dovecot -n # 2.2.10: /usr/local/tools/dovecot/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: SunOS 5.10 i86pc base_dir = /dovecot/var/run/dovecot log_path = /dovecot/log/log log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_debug = yes mail_location = mbox:~/posta:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:LAYOUT=maildir++:INDEX=~/posta/index:CONTROL=~/posta/control passdb { args = /dovecot/etc/dovecot/tests/ldap.settings driver = ldap } protocols = imap service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 } } ssl_cert = </dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </dovecot/certs/dovecot.key ssl_prefer_server_ciphers = yes userdb { args = /dovecot/etc/dovecot/tests/ldap.settings driver = ldap } protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = tb-extra-mailbox-sep } ------------------------------------------- /dovecot/etc/dovecot/tests/ldap.settings hosts = ldap.outputservices.com tls = no ldap_version = 3 base = dc=ldap,dc=outputservices,dc=com ------------------------------------------- If I use ldap for passwords: 2014-09-18 09:44:23 master: Info: Dovecot v2.2.10 starting up for imap 2014-09-18 09:44:33 auth: Fatal: LDAP: Buggy LDAP library returned wrong fd: 1 2014-09-18 09:44:33 master: Error: service(auth): command startup failed, throttling for 2 secs 2014-09-18 09:44:33 imap-login: Info: Disconnected: Auth process broken (disconnected before auth was ready, waited 0 secs): user=<> , rip=137.106.101.127, lip=137.106.76.215, TLS handshaking, session=<d1Nt3FgD1wCJamV/> 2014-09-18 09:44:48 master: Warning: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=18992 uid=0 code=kill) ------------------------------------------- If I use a flat file for passwords: 2014-09-18 09:42:23 master: Info: Dovecot v2.2.10 starting up for imap 2014-09-18 09:43:05 imap-login: Info: Login: user=<dave>, method=PLAIN, rip=137.106.101.127, lip=137.106.76.215, mpid=16769, TLS, se ssion=<vAny1VgDywCJamV/> 2014-09-18 09:43:05 imap(dave): Debug: Effective uid=6010, gid=131, home=/export/home/sun/dave 2014-09-18 09:43:05 imap(dave): Debug: maildir++: root=/export/home/sun/dave/posta, index=/export/home/sun/dave/posta/index, indexpv t=, control=/export/home/sun/dave/posta/control, inbox=/var/mail/dave, alt= 2014-09-18 09:43:10 imap(dave): Info: Disconnected: Logged out in=223 out=1122 2014-09-18 09:43:22 master: Warning: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=17115 uid=0 code=kill) ------------------------------------------- If I use /etc/passwd /etc/shadow for passwords: 2014-09-18 09:39:56 master: Info: Dovecot v2.2.10 starting up for imap 2014-09-18 09:40:14 imap-login: Info: Login: user=<dave>, method=PLAIN, rip=137.106.101.127, lip=137.106.76.215, mpid=13053, TLS, se ssion=<uaT5zFgDwACJamV/> 2014-09-18 09:40:14 imap(dave): Debug: Effective uid=6010, gid=131, home=/export/home/sun/dave 2014-09-18 09:40:14 imap(dave): Debug: maildir++: root=/export/home/sun/dave/posta, index=/export/home/sun/dave/posta/index, indexpv t=, control=/export/home/sun/dave/posta/control, inbox=/var/mail/dave, alt= 2014-09-18 09:41:01 imap(dave): Info: Disconnected: Logged out in=219 out=1118 2014-09-18 09:41:33 master: Warning: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=14765 uid=0 code=kill) ------------------------------------------- I am using openldap 2.4.33.

With dovecot I have to put them in a different folder, I called it posta for now. It then makes them . Files. (.Sent, .Trash ?)

If you only want to dump a few auth cache entries, you can just authenticate with a bad password. When a different (and possibly correct password) is supplied, there will be a cache miss and the new credentials will be cached. echo "1 login someuser badpassword\n2 logout" | netcat --ssl your-imap-server:993 Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

migration from cyrus with dsync sieve problem

Hi all i'm migrating a cyrus imapd server to dovecot with dsync everyting seems working but sieve rules are not copied to dovecot server I searched for documentation but without any luck I use the configuration below with doveadm -v -o mail_fsync=never backup -R -u emailaddr imapc: Is sieve supported with dsync?

Exit status code 134; what is it, in the context of Dovecot Antispam plug-in?
by Ben Johnson 17 Sep '14

17 Sep '14

Hello! I just migrated from Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS and thereby from Dovecot 2.0.19 to 2.2.9. I've been using dovecot-antispam plugin with great success for the past year with 2.0.19, but after this migration, I've been seeing the exit status code 134 in the syslog when attempting to debug the Dovecot Antispam plugin not working after the migration. I have some debugging output in my pipe script; the output looks something like this: Copying message contents to temporary file for debugging purposes; file is: /tmp/sendmail-msg-7662.txt Checking if the command-line input argument string (--spam) contains the string "ham" or "spam" Mode is "SPAM" Calling (as user vmail) '/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d "sa-training(a)example.com" -m "Training.SPAM" -p "/tmp/sendmail-msg-7662.txt"' Exit status was 134 Yet, I'm able to copy the above command and execute it manually, via the command-line, and it works (and by "works", I mean to say that the behavior is correct and exactly as expected; I receive the "Spam" email at the designated mailbox). Here's how I'm calling it when it works perfectly well (as "root"): # su -c '/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d "sa-training(a)example.com" -m "Training.HAM" -p "/tmp/sendmail-msg-7460.txt"' vmail Any idea what status 134 might be or how to work around it? It looks to be some kind of "temporary failure exception", but that is less than informative in this context. "doveconf -n" output is appended.

replicator only starts for users who log in at least once
by Alan McGinlay 17 Sep '14

Hi! I recently setup a second with replication to the other. Both machines run ubuntu 12.04 with dovecot 2.2.13 (6bb26098a45c). All users mail accounts are currently synced manually to the first (mb1) using a dsync script, they are synchronised from a cyrus imap server. Users are still logging into the cyrus server. It appears that the only accounts that are replicated are ones who have logged into either of the dovecot servers at least once, is this how it is supposed to work? I was hoping to get full replication of all mail accounts before starting to move users into the new system. Thanks, Alan
