[Dovecot] want only usder in userfile/passfile and use to login user@domain
by Erik - versatel 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

After adding: auth_username_format=%Lu the %d domain is unfolleded correctly. (and not empty anymore) Maybe a good idee to make a remark in the text Virtual Users about that. I use: passdb: driver: passwd-file args: /etc/dovecot/vhosts/%d/etc/shadow userdb: driver: static args: uid=virtual gid=virtual home=/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%u In the password-file (shadow) i have to add users in the form user@domain. I want to add users in the form user I have also tryed not a static userdb but a real one; see example Dynamic-passwd locations. To get this working i had to add mail-uid and mail-gid. But still it has the same form user@domain and not user Can anybody tell my how to get ride of the domain part in the passwd en userfile. I still want the user to login with user@domain Thanks.

[Dovecot] National characters

Hi, I upgrade my server an I have dovecot 2.0.9 (on RedHat 6) and my user uses Thunderbird 5.0 (on Windows XP). I use authentication via LDAP (Windows server 2003 AD). When users use in password diacritic marks (ą,ć,ę,ł,ń,ó) authentication failed. For example when user test have password: Sierpieńłą*123 in log file item appears: localhost dovecot: auth: ldap(test,192.168.0.68): invalid credentials (given password : SierpieDB#005*123) What can I do? Thanks

[Dovecot] dovecot quota feature request
by Shing 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

Hi all, I'm going to implement before queue quota check with postfix to prevent bounce mail, the quota information is stored into mysql using dovecot quotadict, it would be nice that dovecot can have an option to switch the quota check with (used space < quota) instead of (used space+mail size < quota), so that i can write a simple sql statement to check_recipient_access to reject those mail, thanks.

[Dovecot] Store quota on passwd-file?? Not work
by Sébastien FOURCADE 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

Hello all, I have installed Dovecot 1.2.15 and Postfix 2.7.1 on my Debian 6.This install no include MySQL, I prefer to store Password/User in a file... File /etc/dovecot/passwd contains :user2@domain.com:{CRAM-MD5}::::userdb_mail=maildir:~/Maildir userdb_quota_rule=*:bytes=300M File /etc/dovecot/users :user2@domain.com::3000:3000::/home/vmail/domain.com/user2/:/bin/false:: What is the correct syntax for my file to use a different per-user quota ? This example not work on my Dovecot :user2@domain.com:{CRAM-MD5}:3000:3000::/home/vmail/domain.com/user2::userdb_mail=maildir:~/Maildir userdb_quota_rule=*:storage=200Muser2@domain.com:{CRAM-MD5}:3000:3000::/home/vmail/domain.com/user2::userdb_quota_rule=*:bytes=200M Thx.

[Dovecot] set delay between pop3-logins
by tonjg 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

I'm using dovecot 1.1.8 on a raq4 server running centos 4.8 Is it possible to set a time delay between all dovecot pop3-logins? say 20 - 30 seconds for example? My reason is I want to thwart the constant login attempts from hackers hunting for an open relay. It's no good blocking the ip address because every hack attempt comes in from a different address. I'm the only user on the server so no-one else would be affected by such a delay. Thanks for any pointers -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/set-delay-between-pop3-logins-tp32134037p32134037.html Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] lmtp multiple recipients fail
by flylordis flylordis 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

Hello, I am having a problem with the lmtp delivery of mail addressed to multiple recipients. The first recipient receives the mail correctly but the next recipients do not. ltmp apparently tries to create a link from the subsequent recipients' mail store to the first recipient mail store and fails. This returns 451 smtp codes to the sender which then resends at some later time. Please see below for users jerry, steve, and mary.

[Dovecot] Some messages appear twice

Hi, I'm using Dovecot 1.2.15 on Debian. On some clients, at least KMail, some messages (especially older ones) appear twice in the message list of the client. This is really annoying. Can anyone give me a hint on how to solve this issue? -- Best Regards, Dominik Schulz

Hello I would be grateful if someone could send an example of a dictionnary flat file used by the shared mailboxes feature, it has very few here so a flat file will be enough I think. Thank you

[Dovecot] Problem with client login in 1.2.17
by John O'Brien 27 Jul '11

27 Jul '11

Hi, I have been using CentOS 5.5 with Dovecot 1.0.7. My client apps login with TLS/SSL using an postgres database for username and password authentication. I developed a plugin that added an additional IMAP command. I want to eventually migrate to release 2.0 but have decided to make this a two step process. I have started with 1.2.17 as I hope this would be a smaller step along the way. I have installed 1.2.17 from source an installed. Rebuilt my plugin and installed and set about updating the dovecot.conf file. Installing the SSL certificate etc..... I have tested the 1.0.7 configuration previously using a standard IMAP mail client. When I try with 1.2.17 I can't seem to get logged in. ==> /var/log/maillog <== Jul 27 21:48:26 email dovecot: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=imap secured lip=192.168.1.10 rip=202.81.69.135 lport=10143 rport=58641 resp=ADYxNDE0NjI3NDM2AFExcjQwNHVD Jul 27 21:48:26 email dovecot: auth-worker(default): pam(john,202.81.69.135): lookup service=dovecot Jul 27 21:48:26 email dovecot: auth-worker(default): pam(john,202.81.69.135): #1/1 style=1 msg=Password: Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: auth-worker(default): pam(john,202.81.69.135): unknown user Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: auth(default): sql(john,202.81.69.135): query: SELECT password FROM ivms_iphone WHERE username='john' Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: auth(default): client out: OK 1 user=john Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: auth(default): master in: REQUEST 2 28178 1 Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: auth(default): passwd(john,202.81.69.135): lookup Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: auth(default): passwd(john,202.81.69.135): unknown user Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: auth(default): sql(john,202.81.69.135): SELECT home, uid, gid FROM users WHERE username='john' Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: auth(default): master out: USER 2 john home=/var/imap_mail/john uid=50gid=500 Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: IMAP(john): Loading modules from directory: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap/ Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: IMAP(john): Module loaded: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap//lib20_mail_log_plugin.so Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: IMAP(john): Module loaded: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap//change_passwd_plugin.so Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: IMAP(john): Effective uid=500, gid=500, home=/var/imap_mail/john Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: IMAP(john): maildir: data=john Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: IMAP(john): maildir++: root=john, index=, control=, inbox=john Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<john>, method=PLAIN, rip=202.81.69.135, lip=192.168.1.10, TLS Jul 27 21:48:28 email dovecot: IMAP(john): Namespace : Using permissions from john: mode=0700 gid=-1 ==> /var/log/secure <== Jul 27 21:48:26 email dovecot-auth: pam_unix(dovecot:auth): check pass; user unknown Jul 27 21:48:26 email dovecot-auth: pam_unix(dovecot:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=dovecot ruser=john rhost=202.81.69.135 Jul 27 21:48:26 email dovecot-auth: pam_succeed_if(dovecot:auth): error retrieving information about user john I have the following in the .conf file auth_verbose=yes auth_debug=yes auth_debug_passwords=yes mail_debug=yes verbose_ssl=yes Also note the following differences in behaviour between Dovecot 1.0.7 and 1.2.17 $ telnet new_system_1.2.17 10143 Trying 192.168.1.10...

[Dovecot] sieve, vacation - lda-dupes being ignored?

EVERY time the user checks his mails. I haven't heard any user complaint about this, but perhaps nobody tried this before. I recreated this situation (copy old qpopper message INBOX -> tmpbox -> INBOX) and produced two messages with identical X-UIDL headers, but according to the Wikipedia entry for POP3: Comparison with IMAP Clients that leave mail on servers generally use the UIDL command to get the current association of message-numbers to message identified by its unique identifier. The unique identifier is arbitrary, and might be repeated if the mailbox contains identical messages. This is echoed in RFC1939 (page 11-12) While it is generally preferable for server implementations to store arbitrarily assigned unique-ids in the maildrop, this specification is intended to permit unique-ids to be calculated as a hash of the message. Clients should be able to handle a situation where two identical copies of a message in a maildrop have the same unique-id. So POP3 UIDLs are not guaranteed to be unique, especially if the messages are the same. Perhaps some mail readers are making unwarranted assumptions about the uniqueness of UIDLs: http://www.eggheadcafe.com/software/aspnet/33485042/duplicate-messageiduidl… https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/view.php?id=3599 Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[Dovecot] phantom new message notification
by Stan Hoeppner 26 Jul '11

26 Jul '11

I've developed a phantom new message notification on a single IMAP folder in Thunderbird. I've deleted the Dovecot index files for this problematic folder, and I've deleted the .msf file in the Tbird profile. Neither of which solved the problem. The only other time I've run into something similar was with CONDSTORE quite a long time ago, but that affected all folders, not just one. Any ideas? -- Stan

[Dovecot] drac plugin "net_ip2addr() failed: Operation not permitted"
by Michael Moritz 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

Hi, I'm trying to get the drac plugin working (again) but I'm stuck with the following message: Restarting IMAP/POP3 mail server: dovecotEDRAC: net_ip2addr() failed: Operation not permitted This is on a Debian Squeeze box, dovecot version 1.2.15-7, drac version 1.12 Looking at the source it should print the IP in the brackets of net_ip2addr. The fact that it's just empty made me think that I may need to set an environment variable. I tried IP="127.0.0.1" in /etc/default/dovecot and as export but to no avail. Any ideas? Thanks, mimo

[Dovecot] passwd not found
by Erik - versatel 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

If I use in dovecot.conf passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/dovecot/vhosts/%d/etc/shadow } userdb static { args = uid=virtual gid=virtual home=/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%u allow_all_users=yes } I get an authorisation failure in my mail.log file. If I use passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/dovecot/vhosts/shadow } userdb static { args = uid=virtual gid=virtual home=/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%u allow_all_users=yes } This works !!! (without the %d) in the passdb passwd-file Than the %d/%u is correctly rewritten in the userdb static. PS I have in the passwd-file the username@domain and the username documented for testing. I think there is some problem with the %d (DOMAIN) How can I check if %d is filled ?? And how can i make different authorisationdirs and files per domain.

[Dovecot] dovecot-antispam + spamassassin
by Yann Leboulanger 24 Jul '11

24 Jul '11

Hi, I recently saw this a branch [1] of your git repository when dovecot-antispam has support of spamassassin. Is it intentional to not add it to the official release? Are there any plan to officially support spamassassin? [1] http://www.freenux.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=dovecot-antispam.git;a=shortlog… Thanks -- Yann

[Dovecot] UIDVALIDITY Change
by Dominik Schulz 24 Jul '11

24 Jul '11

Hi, I'm attempting to migrate a Courier-IMAP Server to Dovecto. I've followed the instructions in the Dovecot wiki and converted the indices using the provided perl script. Howevery I'm getting "UIDVALIDITY changed ..." messages in the logfile and some of the test clients list some messages twice. I didn't find much about this issue in the wiki. Any hints? -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards Dominik

[Dovecot] Ubuntu package for dovecot 2.0.x from debian package
by Vincent Richomme 23 Jul '11

23 Jul '11

Hi, I am running a server under Ubuntu 11.04(natty) and I would like to install a 2.x version but unfortunately the only package available is 1.2.15. Of course I could compile and install from sources but I would prefer to handle packages because it's a lot simpler and cleaner. After some research I found some debian packages available here : http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/pool/testing-auto/dovecot-2.0/ So my question is would it be possible to recompile the source package to make a ubuntu one ? Or maybe could I install directly the debian package (but I suppose dependencies are not the same ...). If someone has already an experience with that and couls share his experience. Still don't understand why distros don't use dovecot 2.x ? Is it considered still as unstable ? Thanks

I didn't do anything special other than to use pop3_reuse_xuidl = yes so that clients don't re-download all their messages. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[Dovecot] Automatic Client Retrieval of Messages
by qmail＠top-consulting.net 23 Jul '11

23 Jul '11

Are there any mail clients that automatically pull in folder contents even though they don't have a subscription to that folder ? I have defined a namespace with subscriptions=yes, hidden=yes and list=yes. There are no subscriptions files for any of the users yet they are still pulling data from the folders in that namespace. What gives ?

[Dovecot] My status
by Timo Sirainen 23 Jul '11

23 Jul '11

Hello list, In case anyone's wondering why I haven't been replying here much lately: 1. I've been busy working (you know, paid work) on full text search indexing redesign. That change was a bigger job than I realized at first (mainly due to virtual mailboxes), so I've been a bit stressed/frustrated over it. I finally finished it today though, so that's over now: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.1/rev/7b9978eb6f91 I hope to add Antonio's Solr attachment indexing support to it once I'm a bit less busy. I'm in any case also going to add generic attachment indexing so that CLucene backend can also do it. I've also other work left to do for a few more weeks. 2. My new apartment gets too hot (30C) when it gets over about 22C outside, which is almost daily. So my brain melts in the heat and I don't have energy to do much of anything. But I finally yesterday bought an air conditioning machine, which should solve this problem. I don't know why I didn't buy it weeks ago. So .. I'll try to get back to reading and answering mails next week after I've finished some more work and don't feel like I'm lagging behind too much.
