Re: LMTP server client certificate validation

I regard this as a horrible horrible kludge. ... how do you figure that? *Someone*, and that means you, has to specify which clients are allowed to connect.

Which means that in order to deal with a single-permissible-client situation, you need the CA to issue client certs to just that one entity. b) The CA does *not* and issues (client) certs to entities you do *not* want to grant access. Then the selection job remains yours and, assuming that requiring a client cert from that CA makes any sense in the first place, auth_ssl_username_from_cert is there to help you (by making sure that the username will be "the ID" from the cert so that you can base some additional filtering on that). c) The CA is willing to enrich the certs it issues with DN parts, X509v3 extensions or the like signalling access rights as granted beforehand by a *fourth* party, as in, you. Which is a terrible can of worms as soon as things, especially the number of such fourth parties to support by the same CA, start to scale up IMHO. Which promptly brings us back to you running the CA yourself ... Kind regards, -- Jochen Bern Systemingenieur Binect GmbH

Possible hack via doveadm
by Daniel L. Miller 18 May '23

18 May '23

I currently have two servers running with synchronization that I've been very happy with. However, I'm seeing the following in my logs recently: May 12 15:45:58 cloud1 dovecot: doveadm(194.165.16.78): Error: doveadm client not compatible with this server (mixed old and new binaries?) May 13 03:44:31 cloud1 dovecot: doveadm(45.227.254.48): Error: doveadm client not compatible with this server (mixed old and new binaries?) Since I don't recognize those IPs, the first is out of Panama and the other is Belize, I assume these are hostile attackers trying to exploit something. How can I defend against this? -- Daniel

pigeonhole: sieve: float score failed for comparator-i ascii-numeric
by Randy Li 18 May '23

18 May '23

Hello Following the sieve_spamtest_status_header from the document, I think I could extract the score from the spamassassin (which is from spampd lmtp). But sieve script can't never work properly with comparator "i;ascii-numeric". I have used sieve-test several times, once I remove the dot from the mail sample, the sieve script works well. I noticed that document says i;ascii-numeric is for unsigned integer only which certainly does work for this case. The score here would be signed float(all right all the float is signed) and it is a float variable from tst-spamvirustest.c. I think that is the place the bug happened. Unfortunately, I didn't found any RFC that supports a float comparator and I am not familiar with the sieve interrupter. If someone could give me a possible method to fix this, I could submit a patch. Sincerely Randy Li

If you run your script every day (and thus, run "doveadm fetch ... date.saved" as well), that will make sure any new mail put into your Trash folder will have date.saved within 24h of the "real" value.

I think the "date.saved" is not instantiated in the cache until you query for it. So the value you were shown is when you last dumped its value if it wasn't previously set -- your run of same values coincided when you ran "doveadm fetch". My expunge script just uses date.received instead -- it seems to work. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[PATCH] [WIP]: thunderbird mboxrd to mbox

16 May '23

I was trying to restore email from local thunderbird download data. None of the script I found could work. This script is modified from superuser.com/questions/105653/how-to-convert-mboxo-mboxrd-to-mboxcl-mboxcl2 Which works for me, using this script I could use doveadm import to restore my INBOX(I don't know how to restore the Sent mailbox). If this script is useful, I would rewrite one for python3 and following the mboxrd spec.

Incorrect saved dates in mailboxes
by Chris Szilagyi 16 May '23

16 May '23

Hello: We have a server (Debian 11) using Dovecot 2.3 which has been in place for about a year. We are using mbox format for our mailboxes, and do not use MySQL, just plain user directories under /home. Recently, I noticed that our expunge script is not working, and I don't think it ever has on this server. On further inspection, it looks like the saved date for emails in the folders we want to expunge is set to a recent date (yesterday) for almost all messages. For example, when I run the command "doveadm -f tab fetch -u username date.saved mailbox Trash", the date for almost all of the messages is yesterday at the exact same time. I tried this on other users and they have this exact same timestamp shown for most of their messages, too. I tried checking for "date.received" and that shows correct, it is "date.saved" that is not working. Any idea of how or why this would not be showing the correct date? I've used this setup in the past on other servers with dovecot and it has worked great, no idea why we would be seeing this issue now. Thanks in advance. Chris

[feature request] SSL handshake rejection for non-SNI clients
by Serg 16 May '23

16 May '23

I would like to offer to implement a feature to reject SSL handshakes for a default certificate-key pair for efficiently discarding bot requests (i.e. such requests that provide invalid/not configured hostname or do not specify at all, like when doing request to the IP address directly). Nginx has such feature already implemented as seen here[1], and it would be beneficial if dovecot would support this too. Currently I am using the following SSL configuration snippet to mimic such behavior: > ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/dovecot/server.crt > ssl_key = </etc/ssl/dovecot/server.key > > local_name flopster.at.encryp.ch { > ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/domains/flopster.at.encryp.ch/fullchain > ssl_key = </etc/ssl/domains/flopster.at.encryp.ch/key > } But in this case the problem is that the invalid requests (for this example it is requests that don't have Server Name Indication at all or mention anything else but not flopster.at.encryp.ch) are still being replied by Dovecot with a TLS certificate rather than being simply rejected with a TLSV1_UNRECOGNIZED_NAME error code.

Re: [External] Re: Help - Permissions issue with new mail

Sorry, I sent the reply directly to you not to the list. I try to find which is the uid expected by dovecot. Usually since in postfix the uid is set as 5000 you need to have the same "virtual" uid set in dovecot. I didn't see this in the fail you sent. Maybe you made some change in the past without restarting dovecot. Anyway i think a line like mail_uid=5000 somewhere in dovecot configuration ( location may differ )should fix your issue. Try to find if this is already set and if not add this in dovecot and restart it.

replicator service

acl replication
by micha＠micha.waw.pl 15 May '23

15 May '23

What is correct way to sync ACLs across two servers? Example: I want user1 to have access to user2 mailbox. I do this on server1: doveadm acl set shared/user2 user=user1 admin create delete expunge insert lookup read write write-deleted write-see Now user1 can see shared/user2 when logged to server1. (Looks good!) He still has no access when logged to server2. (Seems correct.) So I do synchronization: doveadm sync -u user2 remote:server2 ...and nothing changes. He still have access only when logged to server1. So I force full synchronization: doveadm sync -u -f user2 remote:server2 ...and success! User1 has access to shared/user2 on both servers now. But now I want to remove access. So I do this on server1: doveadm acl delete shared/user2 user=user1 Of course the above affects only server1, so user1 still have access when logged to server2. So now I do synchronization: doveadm sync -u user2 remote:server2 Nothing happens. :-( So I try do do full synchro: doveadm sync -u user2 -f remote:server2 ...disaster! The ACL is COPIED BACK from server2 to server1 and effectively restoring access to shared/user2 on on both servers again. (WTH?) So big question is: Who to do it properly? It would be enough for me if ACL's were copied only one way (server1->server2), but bidirectional replication would of course also be nice. :-) Configs: namespace { disabled = no hidden = no ignore_on_failure = no inbox = no list = children location = maildir:%%h/.maildir:LAYOUT=fs:INDEX=~/.shared/%%u order = 0 prefix = shared/%%u/ separator = / subscriptions = no type = shared } plugin { acl = vfile:/etc/dovecot/mailconfig/global-acls acl_defaults_from_inbox = yes acl_shared_dict = file:/etc/dovecot/mailconfig/shared/shared-mailboxes }

Best practice for Dovecot with LDAP and Postfix
by Moritz Pflanzer 09 May '23

09 May '23

Hi all, so far I had a setup where Dovecot was using a passwd file as userdb and passdb. Postfix was then authenticating with Dovecot via SASL to validate user accounts. Now I added an LDAP backend and would like to use that for Dovecot and Postfix. My first approach was to change the passdb to use the LDAP driver with the following settings: hosts = openldap:1389 base = ou=users,dc=example,dc=com auth_bind = yes auth_bind_userdn = uid=%n,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com And I changed the userdb driver to static since anyway there is just the vmail system account for all virtual user mailboxes. This is working as expected for the IMAP connections. But postfix authentication fails as it is apparently using a wrong user_filter. This is what I see in the logs from OpenLDAP: docker-openldap-1 | 645908ae.1d975b70 0x7fe379297700 conn=1347 fd=12 ACCEPT from IP=172.19.0.7:52144 (IP=0.0.0.0:1389) docker-openldap-1 | 645908ae.1d98571f 0x7fe379a98700 conn=1347 op=0 BIND dn="" method=128 docker-openldap-1 | 645908ae.1d993bd7 0x7fe379a98700 conn=1347 op=0 RESULT tag=97 err=0 qtime=0.000009 etime=0.000072 text= docker-postfix-1 | May 08 14:35:26 nest postfix/smtpd[12455]: 8A9FC1E03C5: client=mo4-p01-ob.smtp.rzone.de[85.215.255.51] docker-postfix-1 | May 08 14:35:26 nest postfix/cleanup[12461]: 8A9FC1E03C5: message-id=<713569303.508224.1683556526256(a)webmail.strato.de> docker-postfix-1 | May 08 14:35:26 nest postfix/qmgr[951]: 8A9FC1E03C5: from=<moritz(a)pflanzer.eu>, size=3340, nrcpt=1 (queue active) docker-postfix-1 | May 08 14:35:26 nest postfix/smtpd[12455]: disconnect from mo4-p01-ob.smtp.rzone.de[85.215.255.51] ehlo=2 starttls=1 mail=1 rcpt=1 data=1 quit=1 commands=7 docker-openldap-1 | 645908ae.2616b031 0x7fe379297700 conn=1347 op=1 SRCH base="ou=users,dc=example,dc=com" scope=2 deref=0 filter="(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=moritz(a)example.com))" docker-openldap-1 | 645908ae.26179272 0x7fe379297700 conn=1347 op=1 SRCH attr=uid docker-openldap-1 | 645908ae.2619389b 0x7fe379297700 conn=1347 op=1 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=32 qtime=0.000017 etime=0.000221 nentries=0 text= I tried setting the user_filter manually to "user_filter = (mail=%u)" but that doesn't have any effect. Is this the expected behavior from Dovecot? I guess I can get it working by using the ldap driver for the userdb as well. But is that the best approach since I technically don't need it for dovecot itself. Or should I now change the postfix config as well to directly authenticate against the LDAP server instead of using SASL with Dovecot? Looking forward to recommendations, Moritz

Documentation issue: incorrect link
by Tom Hendrikx 06 May '23

06 May '23

Hello, In the second paragraph at https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/sieve/extensions/duplicate/, a link is included to RFC7353, but this RFC is not related to sieve at all. I think the correct RFC to link is RFC7352, like in the first paragraph. Kind regards, Tom

amount of users
by Thomas Schäfer 05 May '23

05 May '23

Hi, is somewhere a table/matrix/function based on experience how many users require which values for mail_max_userip_connections default_client_limit default_process_limit ...? I run into problems with a small group of users, since the defaults seem to be only for single man shows. The second assumption is: User are permanently online (connected to imap) and using two devices in average (one or two desktops, + one mobile device) Regards, Thomas -- There’s no place like ::1 Thomas Schäfer (Systemverwaltung) Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Centrum für Informations- und Sprachverarbeitung Oettingenstraße 67 Raum C109 80538 München ☎ +49/89/2180-9706 ℻ +49/89/2180-9701

dmarc user can't receive email because of encrypted storage
by efeizbudak＠disroot.org 04 May '23

04 May '23

Hi all, So recently google has been trying to send email to dmarc(a)domain.com on my server but I'm using encrypted storage and since the dmarc user has no password the email is being rejected with the error: May 4 16:51:50 domain dovecot: lda(dmarc)<3326><l0J9NabiU2T+DAAA1iAyAg>: Error: sieve: msgid=<10341808348719730099(a)google.com>: failed to store into mailbox 'INBOX': generate_keypair(INBOX) failed: mail_crypt_require_encrypted_user_key set, cannot generate user keypair without password or key How can I fix this, or at least read what the mail says? Would it be safe to just give dmarc user a strong password?

Error: read() failed for file :: No buffer space available
by rudolf＠padaru.de 04 May '23

Hey there, ive got a situation with one of mine mailusers he cant access his mailbox and i cant resync the mailuser or access the mails with doveadm too: In maillog we got a lot of these errors, ist only m.73 that makes problems: Error: Syncing mailbox INBOX failed: read() /mdbox/storage/m.73: No buffer space available I dont really understand whats the problem here, the partition has ~500gb free space and all other mailboxes work fine on this server. Is there somebody who can give me a hint to solve this? First i thought the mdbox file is to obig, so i increased the mdbox_rotate_size limit without success. To restart the dovecot changes nothing too. In the dovecot journal i cant find other problems wo cause in this one, same in syslog, nothing special to see, like segfaults or so.

Help - Permissions issue with new mail
by michele.clark＠us.kbr.com 03 May '23

03 May '23

Hi all. We have an install of Dovecot running with Postfix and Roundcube using virtual mail to allow us to connect to our AD domain which got messed up after a power issue. I can log into our Roundcube and see all my old emails, however new emails keep getting stuck in the CUR files with permissions of -rw------- If I chmod the email it will deliver to the inbox in Roundcube. Can anyone advise on how I can adjust this so all new emails will come thru with the correct permissions? - Thanks in advance

managesieve problem
by Soeren Malchow 25 Apr '23

25 Apr '23

Hi, i am struggeling with a managesieve problem, we are using docker mailserver and managesieve login does not work, if i understand correctly, then dovecot should offer something like this "SASL" "PLAIN" on our server it is simply empty "SASL" "" i was trying to authenticate in a telnet connection AUTHENTICATE "PLAIN" "LOGINSTRING_HERE" And i get this NO "Error in MANAGESIEVE command received by server." first of all i would like to ask where the SASL capabilites come from, how can i get it to offer "PLAIN" or "AUTH" everything else (e.g. sieve itself) just works find Cheers Soeren
