Hi Timo, since I've upgraded to 2.1.8, solr indexer doesnt work correctly. I see a lot of these errors in logs: Fatal: master: service(indexer-worker): child 9582 returned error 83 (Out of memory (service indexer-worker { vsz_limit=256 MB }, you may need to increase it)) I've tried to set vsz_limit to a lot more, (around 4096 MB) but same problem occurs. thank for your help !

[Dovecot] mdbox with separate index location results in many emptydirectories
by Jürgen Obermann 31 Jul '12

31 Jul '12

Hallo, I use dovecot 2.1.7 with mdbox format and I specified a separate location for mailbox index files with mail_location = mdbox:/dovecot/storage%h:INDEX=/dovecot/index%h With this setting I get for every mailbox a directory under both filesystems /dovecot/index and /dovecot/storage, e.g. for the inbox it looks like that: # ls -lR /dovecot/index/home/hrz/myuser/mailboxes/INBOX /dovecot/storage/home/hrz/myuser/mailboxes/INBOX /dovecot/index/home/hrz/myuser/mailboxes/INBOX: total 49 -rw------- 1 myuser hrz 20480 Jul 20 11:12 dovecot.index.cache -rw------- 1 myuser hrz 1280 Jul 20 08:00 dovecot.index.log -rw------- 1 myuser hrz 301 Jul 19 16:45 dovecot.index.search -rw------- 1 myuser hrz 20 Jul 19 16:45 dovecot.index.search.uids /dovecot/storage/home/hrz/myuser/mailboxes/INBOX: total 3 drwx------ 2 myuser hrz 2 Jul 19 15:20 dbox-Mails /dovecot/storage/home/hrz/myuser/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails: total 0 As expected the index files now reside under /dovecot/index%h/mailboxes/, but the path /dovecot/storage%h/mailboxes/ also contains for every user and every mailbox name a directory which in turn contains only an empty subdirectory 'dbox-Mails'. These directories seem to me to sum up to a lot of unneded infrstructure objects. I tried to delete these empty directories, but dovecot did not like that and stopped to work. So somehow they are necessary, in spite of setting a separate index file location. So my question is, could these empty directories be avoided, perhaps in a future version?

[Dovecot] Empty argument in "executable = script ..." service
by Florian Wagner 31 Jul '12

31 Jul '12

Hi, what is the point of adding an empty argument to the command called by the "executable = script ..." setting in a service? I guess that would be the call to array_append_space at line 57 in util/script.c. Background is that I'm trying to run bogofilter through the extprograms Pigeonhole plugin. So I've defined a service entry with a unix_listener and wondered why my test shell script works but bogofilter exits with a cryptic error. Turns out that this empty argument at the end trips up the bogofilter argument parsing code. If I manually call bogofilter with execv and add that empty argument I get the same cryptic error. Regards Florian

[Dovecot] Dovecot Director behaviour when two or more fail
by Dominic Malolepszy 31 Jul '12

31 Jul '12

Hi, On the Dovecot wiki here http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Director it says the following: "The directors are going to connect to each others in a ring. For example if you have servers called A, B and C, director will create connections A->B, B->C and C->A" I am curious what happens in a scenario when two or more directors fail and potentially break a ring in half, do the active directors detect this and reform a new ring?

[Dovecot] Help needed with configuration giving dict error No such file

31 Jul '12

Each time a mail message is delivered to a mailbox records like the following appear in /var/log/dovecot.warn: Jul 29 10:02:05 iris dovecot: lmtp(29320, jax(a)XXX.com) Error: file dict commit: file_dotlock_open(/var/vmail/XXX.com/jax/home/maildir/dovecot-quota) failed: No such file or directory Jul 29 10:02:05 iris dovecot: lmtp(29320, jax(a)XXX.com) Error: file dict commit: file_dotlock_open(/var/vmail/XXX.com/jax/home/maildir/dovecot-quota) failed: No such file or directory Jul 29 10:02:05 iris dovecot: lmtp(29320, jax(a)XXX.com) Error: dict quota: Quota update failed, it's now desynced This is with Dovecot 2.1.7 installed by Debian Squeeze binary packages, dovecot-core v 1:2.1.7-2~bpo60+1, and friends. The host is running GNU/Linux 3.2.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 and on a xfs filesystem. Entries in /etc/dovecot/users look like this: jax@XXX.com:{plain}password The output from 'doveconf -n' is in the attachment to this mail message. I'm a beginner without experience with either IMAP servers or clients. Can you give me pointers to see what I'm missing that causes the errors logged as above? The user data base looks like this: userdb { args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/var/vmail/%d/%n/home mail=maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n driver = static } Being a beginner, I wonder if is necessary to manually make home directories for each '/var/vmail/%d/%n/home'? I've tried test accounts with and without empty "home" directories at the indicated locations without seeing any difference in the error indications. Is it necessary to manually populate the "home" directories? Besides having no clue about the errors logged, I don't understand what it takes to make quotas work nor do I understand what options are available or advisable. The distribution wiki/QuotaMaildir.txt seems clear that the Maildif+++ backend is indicated but beyond that I remain in the dark. FWIW, I've yet to try a real IMAP client. Thank you for any pointers you can give me.

[Dovecot] Problem with running two dovecot instances on the same server
by Alexandr Sabitov 31 Jul '12

31 Jul '12

Hello All, Have anyone met the problem I am struggling with at the moment ? The problem is when I run two instances of dovecot 2.1.8 which are one for proxy-director and another one is a regular one on the same server then I have big amount of strange entries in the /var/log/mail.err: Jul 26 11:51:20 dovecot-test-1 dovecot: director: Error: Empty server list Jul 26 11:51:20 dovecot-test-1 dovecot: director: Fatal: Invalid value for director_mail_servers setting Jul 26 11:51:20 dovecot-test-1 dovecot: master: Error: service(director): command startup failed, throttling for 60 secs Jul 26 11:52:20 dovecot-test-1 dovecot: director: Error: Empty server list Jul 26 11:52:20 dovecot-test-1 dovecot: director: Fatal: Invalid value for director_mail_servers setting Jul 26 11:52:20 dovecot-test-1 dovecot: master: Error: service(director): command startup failed, throttling for 60 secs That's for sure set->director_mail_servers variable in main_preinit of ./src/director/main.c But after dumping it it turns out that ppid of the process which failed to use main_preinit function is a "regular" dovecot not the proxy one. When main_preinit is used by dovecot-proxy then set->director_mail_servers = ip address of a mail server and it is all good but if main_preinit is used by dovecot then set->director_mail_servers = empty and I get fatal errors in logs. So here is a question: How come that "non-proxy" dovecot requests director_mail_servers variable and writes fatal error in the logs if it doesn't find it ? Thank you very much for any assistance!

[Dovecot] maildir_copy_with_hardlinks on v.2.0.19
by mailing list subscriber 31 Jul '12

31 Jul '12

Hi, I'm trying to get the so-called "single instance store" (I think cyrus has got the name for the first time) with dovecot --version = 2.0.19 binary package installed from ubuntu 12.04 lts official repo. I have checked that "maildir_copy_with_hardlinks" is enabled ("dovecot -a|grep hard" shows "yes") then I have installed and enabled the lmtp component of dovecot. The configuration "dovecot -n" is pasted here: http://paste.lug.ro/131180 Also in the same paste is a strace against dovecot and childrent showing evidence of the MTA delivering a single copy of the message via LMTP with multiple RCPT TO: headers. However when looking in the Maildir, I see the mail break down into three separate files instead of expected hardlinked files ("stat" and "ls" shows one single link count, inodes are different) Given the above data, what (am I | dovecot is) doing wrong? Please cc me if you need additional input when replying as I'm not subscribed to the list (I'll watch the thread online only) Many thanks in advance.

Evolution seems to be in pretty widespread > use. Wondering what others like and use heavily. Hi Chris, I tried Evolution once about 10 years ago, and it was too complex and comprehensive for me to understand. The centerpiece of my emailing activity is a Dovecot IMAP server on my daily driver desktop computer. The way it works is that fetchmail grabs all my email from my various POP accounts, pushes them through procmail, whose filters distribute the emails into the proper Dovecot IMAP directories (and also /dev/null stuff from PITA people). As far as I know, my Dovecot has never malfunctioned. Currently, I access my local IMAP with Claws-Mail. Claws is capable, robust, and does what I need without being an ecological disaster like Kmail or intermittently pig slow like Thunderbird. Claws' configuration is difficult to wrap your head around, and very much in need of better documentation, but so far, thanks to a knowledgeable and helpful user community on the mailing list, I've been able to make almost every config change to speed my interaction with Claws. My one complaint about Claws that can't be cured by documentation is its propensity to do everything with one process and one thread, so while you're sending an email or scanning your IMAP, you cannot look at other emails. I also wanted their powerful search to be able to recurse folders, and when nobody volunteered to do it, I tried to do it myself. Making something recursive sounds like simply a matter of writing a simple loop around the existing functionality, but what I found out is, at least this part of Claws was written in a manner resembling MVC, with process and UI completely commingled. For that reason I was unable to make it recursive. I have Claws on my daily driver and all my laptops. Thanks to Kevin Korb's instructions, on the laptops I was able to tell Claws its IMAP server was at 127.0.0.1. I pinholed my OpenBSD/pf firewall appliance to port forward incoming ssh to my daily driver. Then, on my laptop, if I'm at home and on the LAN, I run the following inhouse.sh sudo ssh -NTL 993:127.0.0.1:993 slitt(a)192.168.1.88 While on the road I run this travelling.sh: sudo ssh -NTL 993:127.0.0.1:993 slitt(a)99.99.99.99 In the preceding, 99.99.99.99 is the IP address my ISP gave me, while 192.168.1.88 is the LAN IP address of my daily driver. This makes 127.0.0.1:993 get pushed through ssh to the ISP supplied internet address or the LAN address. So I can use Claws to interact with my daily driver desktop anywhere I go. I'm extremely pleased with this setup. My IMAP tree is trivial to back up, and gives me the assurance that if Claws-Mail ever commits suicide the way Kmail did when they went to Kmail2, I can simply plug in a different IMAP enabled email client. Meanwhile, Claws gives me an extremely productive and easy to use user interface. With my client/server setup, I no longer need to copy all my email too and from the laptop when travelling. I'm going to present on my remote use of my daily driver desktop Dovecot, using Claws and ssh, at tomorrow night's GoLUG meeting.

[Dovecot] Address extensions
by Armistead, Kurt 31 Jul '12

31 Jul '12

Hi guys, I'm trying to set up in-mailbox routing for messages using the + delimiter. The server runs postfix and dovecot 1.2.15. I have re-defined the delivery service in master.cf as "-f ${sender} -d ${user}@${nexthop} -n -m INBOX.${extension}" (server was formerly courier) but the routing only works when the destination folder has no uppercase characters. "Folder1" doesn't deliver correctly while "folder2" does. What am I doing wrong? Kurt

[Dovecot] SSL Warnings in Debug Logs

Greetings, In doing some debugging of authentication issues, I'm wondering if these SSL warnings are anything to be investigating?

[Dovecot] mysql auth failover failing
by Paul B. Henson 29 Jul '12

29 Jul '12

We are running dovecot to provide authentication for postfix, using two mysql servers in a multi-master replication set as the password source: ---------------------------------------- # 2.0.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.37-gentoo-r4 x86_64 Gentoo Base System release 2.0.2 auth_mechanisms = plain login digest-md5 cram-md5 auth_verbose = yes passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } protocols = none service auth-worker { unix_listener auth-worker { user = postfix } user = $default_internal_user } service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } user = postfix } ssl = no userdb { driver = passwd } --------------------------------------- With an sql config of: ------------------------- driver = mysql connect = host=mysql-1.unx.csupomona.edu host=mysql-2.unx.csupomona.edu dbname=idmgmt user=postfix password=XXXXXXX default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = XXXXXXXXX ------------------------- According to the sample SQL configuration file "HA / round-robin load-balancing is supported by giving multiple host settings, like: host=sql1.host.org host=sql2.host.org". However, as far as I can tell dovecot only connects to the first listed host, and processes all queries through it, there does not appear to be any load-balancing going on. That's not necessarily a dealbreaker; however, high-availability does not appear to be working either. If I shutdown the first mysql server, dovecot starts to log connection failures: Sep 9 15:47:34 tweak dovecot: auth: Error: mysql(mysql-1.unx.csupomona.edu): Connect failed to database (idmgmt): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'mysql-1.unx.csupomona.edu' (111) - waiting for 1 seconds before retry Sep 9 15:47:39 tweak dovecot: auth: Error: mysql(mysql-1.unx.csupomona.edu): Connect failed to database (idmgmt): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'mysql-1.unx.csupomona.edu' (111) - waiting for 25 seconds before retry And postfix starts to fail authentications: Sep 9 15:47:35 tweak postfix/smtpd[5119]: warning: bender.iitsys.csupomona.edu[134.71.250.134]: SASL DIGEST-MD5 authentication failed: Connection lost to authentication server Now and again the authentication process dies: Sep 9 15:47:39 tweak dovecot: auth: Panic: file auth-request-handler.c: line 697 (auth_request_handler_flush_failures): assertion failed: (auth_request->state == AUTH_REQUEST_STATE_FINISHED) Sep 9 15:47:39 tweak dovecot: auth: Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x3f71a) [0x7f25822ca71a] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x3f766) [0x7f25822ca766] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x198ca) [0x7f25822a48ca] -> dovecot/auth() [0x4137f4] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handle_timeouts+0xd4) [0x7f25822d5fe4] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0x5b) [0x7f25822d6bcb] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x28) [0x7f25822d5c48] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(master_service_run+0x13) [0x7f25822c3de3] -> dovecot/auth(main+0x2be) [0x4179de] -> /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xfd) [0x7f2581898bbd] -> dovecot/auth() [0x40bdc9] Sep 9 15:47:39 tweak dovecot: master: Error: service(auth): child 4154 killed with signal 6 (core dumps disabled) Requests start to pile up: Sep 9 15:51:46 tweak dovecot: auth: Warning: auth workers: Auth request was queued for 25 seconds, 45 left in queue Lookups time out: Sep 9 15:57:22 tweak dovecot: auth: Error: auth worker: Aborted request: Lookup timed out This occasionally pops up: Sep 9 15:58:38 tweak dovecot: auth: Fatal: net_connect_unix(auth-worker) failed: Resource temporarily unavailable And sometimes the auth process gets temporarily disabled: Sep 9 15:58:57 tweak dovecot: master: Error: service(auth): command startup failed, throttling Resulting in more postfix authentication failures: Sep 9 15:58:57 tweak postfix/smtpd[6531]: warning: bender.iitsys.csupomona.edu[134.71.250.134]: SASL DIGEST-MD5 authentication failed: Sep 9 15:59:08 tweak postfix/smtpd[6551]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms To the point where postfix also temporarily throttles smtpd: Sep 9 15:59:21 tweak postfix/master[6526]: warning: /usr/lib64/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling Resulting in a complete unavailability of smtp service, not just unavailability of authenticated services. I don't think all authentications fail during the scenario, but I think the majority do. Based on the network traffic, dovecot is almost continuously trying to connect to the first listed server. It sometimes connects to the second listed server, but when it does, the connection does not persist, it goes away almost immediately. Ideally, I would like no authentications to fail if one of the MySQL servers is unavailable. If a few fail just when the server dies, that would be undesirable but acceptable as long as they do not continuously fail while the server is down. Am I doing something wrong? Does the example sql config have incorrect information? We were previously running dovecot 1.2.11, we just recently upgraded to 2. In the previous version, we actually had two different passdb's configured, each one listing only one of the mysql servers. I seem to recall that was the recommendation at the time for high-availability. When that configuration did not seem to work under version 2, I found an updated recommendation to list both servers in the same passdb, which also does not appear to work correctly. I actually went back and tested the older version, and determined it seemed to work okay in the case where the server was up but the service was down, and connections were refused, but also failed a large number of authentication attempts when the server was completely down and connections were timing out.

[Dovecot] Enable ACL for master user
by punit_j 29 Jul '12

Hi Team, I have dovecot setup and I have enabled master User login in dovecot.conf file as below :- auth_master_user_separator = * passdb { driver = passwd-file args = /etc/dovecot/passwd.masterusers master = yes pass = yes } passdb { driver = shadow } userdb { driver = passwd } and craeted file. I can login to the user but what I see after login is : - Trying 0.0.0.0... Connected to 0. Escape character is '^]'. * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR SORT THREAD=REFERENCES MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT LITERAL+ IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE LOGIN-REFERRALS UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. a login user*masteruser password a OK Logged in. a list "" * * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Trash" * LIST (\Unmarked) "." "INBOX" a OK List completed. However when I login as a normal user I see this : - Connected to 0. Escape character is '^]'. * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR SORT THREAD=REFERENCES MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT LITERAL+ IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE LOGIN-REFERRALS UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. a login user userpassword a OK Logged in. a list "" * * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Drafts" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Trash" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Sent items" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX" a OK List completed. I think its because of ACL for user and it is using masterusers ACL. I looked at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PostLoginScripting, however do we have sample login script so that I can use that script with modifications. Sorry I am new to dovecot. Thanks and Regards.

[Dovecot] lmtp log message

I just tried switching to lmtp from lda. Messages are being delivered, but I now see messages similar to: Jul 26 22:59:21 bubba dovecot: lmtp(20508): Disconnect from local: Client quit (in reset) in my log for every message. Is this a normal sign-off - or does this indicate a misconfiguration? -- Daniel

[Dovecot] Problem with preserving MIME format with Dovecot IMAP and Outlook
by Peter Grimmond 29 Jul '12

29 Jul '12

Hello, I have installed Dovecot 2.0.19 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I have set up a very basic IMAP configuration. I have two different laptops running Outlook (one MacOS, one Windows 7) and I have configured both to connect to the Dovecot service. My problem is, emails in MIME format that I synchronise from one Outlook client are not being correctly decoded as MIME messages on the other client. Instead, the message is rendered in plaintext, starting with the lines: This message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not understandthis format, some or all of this message may not be legible. --B_3426360453_22814Content-type: multipart/alternative; boundary="B_3426360453_4099" --B_3426360453_4099Content-type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1"Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable Can anyone help me understand why this might be happening? The output from dovecot -n is: # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-26-generic-pae i686 Ubuntu 12.04 LTS auth_debug = yes auth_verbose = yes disable_plaintext_auth = no mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir passdb { driver = pam } protocols = " imap" ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { driver = passwd } Thanks!

Re: [Dovecot] expire-tool stops on first box with nothing to expire in it

Michael Wessel writes: > When I run for example: > > doveadm -D search -A mailbox Trash savedbefore 60d > /tmp/discard I previously observed that the "date.saved" field (tested by savedbefore) seems to be clustered around particular timestamps. Dumping out this field using doveadm -ftab fetch -A \ "mailbox date.saved" \ $ mailbox Trash OR mailbox Junk OR mailbox "Deleted Items" $ it seems the timestamps do not actually correspond to when the client moves messages to their trash folder, but rather, to the time I query for it i.e. a query instantiates this value. This timestamp is then retained. In practice, if this query is done on a periodic interval (e.g. daily), the date.saved will be roughly correct, and is usable as an age test for expungement. Is there a way to force this value to be cached when the client actually saves or moves a message? Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[Dovecot] [PATCH] Pop3/imap ordering in courier-dovecot-migrate.pl
by Pavel Stano 28 Jul '12

28 Jul '12

Hi, current version of courier migration script courier-dovecot-migrate.pl preserve order of POP3 UIDLs, but it keep IMAP UIDs not in order which cause problems with clients using IMAP along with POP3 in some cases. Attached patch use MAIL_FETCH_POP3_ORDER feature added in version 2.0.13 to keep POP3 and IMAP UID[L]s in order. -- [ Ohodnotte kvalitu mailu: http://nicereply.com/websupport/4afafd34/ ] Pavel Stano | admin team http://WebSupport.sk *** TAKE AND ENJOY ***

[Dovecot] Dsync replication
by list＠airstreamcomm.net 28 Jul '12

28 Jul '12

I have been loosely following discussions dsync replication, but I am wondering if this tool still in a testing phase or has it been committed as a production part of Dovecot? I would like to do some testing with the protocol to see if it's capable of handling the change rate our mail service generates, which has about 23,000 active users. We are trying to find solutions for a two site setup where mail processing is either being done at the primary data center A and fails over to a hot standby cluster at the secondary data center B, or where both data centers are doing active processing. I have been unable to find documentation on dsync replication on the wiki, so if there is any documentation available on how to setup dsync replication I would appreciate a nudge in the right direction.

Hello. This is in Dovecot 2.1.7 on Linux x86, but it looks as though 2.1.8 has the same issue. I'm using fts-lucene. SEARCH HEADER TO returns no results, but SEARCH TO works: B SEARCH TO TEST * SEARCH 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 24 26 27 28 29 31 B OK Search completed (0.000 secs). C SEARCH HEADER TO TEST * SEARCH C OK Search completed (0.000 secs). Without FTS enabled, both forms of the query work. It looks as though the header names are indexed in lower case. But Dovecot is passing the header name to the backend in upper case when SEARCH HEADER is used. I'm not sure whether this is the *right* fix, but lower-casing the header name in lucene-wrapper.cc seems to fix the problem: --- dovecot-2.1.7-clean/src/plugins/fts-lucene/lucene-wrapper.cc 2011-12-13 06:35:29.000000000 -0500 +++ dovecot-2.1.7/src/plugins/fts-lucene/lucene-wrapper.cc 2012-07-24 14:03:14.000000000 -0400 @@ -1094,7 +1094,7 @@ return false; q = lucene_get_query(index, - t_lucene_utf8_to_tchar(index, arg->hdr_field_name, FALSE), + t_lucene_utf8_to_tchar(index, t_str_lcase(arg->hdr_field_name), FALSE), arg); break; default: Now: B SEARCH TO TEST * SEARCH 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 24 26 27 28 29 31 B OK Search completed (0.000 secs).
