I have followed the instructions about bug reports /generating cores located at http://dovecot.org/bugreport.html .

[Dovecot] Rejected mails
by sunhux G 22 Feb '11

I'm getting closer, now with SMTP permitted to whole of Internet to connect to my SMTP/postfix server & for my postfix server to connect out to public Internet on tcp 25 as well. I send emails from permitted domain's SMTP servers with "Receipt Acknowledgemt" & the ack returned said it was delivered but somehow there's no mail in the mailbox & using the site below to test, it gave Rejected : http://legacy.zoneedit.com/whois.html OK, connected to gate1.mds.com.sg... < 220 gate1.mds.com.sg ESMTP > HELO edit.dnsvr.com < 250 gate1.mds.com.sg > MAIL FROM:<sender_id(a)mds.com.sg> < 250 sender <sender_id(a)mds.com.sg> ok > RCPT TO:<recipient_id(a)myportaltech.com> < 550 #5.1.0 Address rejected. The recipient_id is basically a Linux OS id in my SMTP server.

Hello. We would like to share mails without copying the data to another mailbox. The problem is that we use exim4 for delivery and maildir++ format. Would it be feasible to create a symlink or hardlink using the COPY or COPYlike (extension) command? Regards. Erny Ernesto Revilla Yaco Sistemas +34 954 500 057

[Dovecot] [Q] A mix-up between /%d/%u/ and /%d/%n for virtual users
by J4K 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Hi there, I have noticed I misconfigured a dovect 1.2.n server with virtual email. Mistakingly, I used /%d/%u/ for mail_location, but /%d/%n userdb: mail_location: maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%u/ userdb: driver: static args: uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/var/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes As a result I have maildirs being created for both (e.g): /var/vmail/bigdomain.com/dirk(a)bigdomain.com /var/vmail/bigdomain.com/dirk The actual email is placed in /var/vmail/bigdomain.com/dirk(a)bigdomain.com, which I am happy with. I would liek to tidy up the configuration so that these extra maildirs are not created, without breaking everything. Would someone recommend what the best steps are? (other than reinstalling and starting from scratch - Its in production).

[Dovecot] need help with public namespaces

Hello, I need some guidance with setting up a public namespace with per-user \Seen flags.

[Dovecot] imap-login ESTABLISHED client sessions not timed out by server
by J4K 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Good morning everyone, I noticed some mobile client connections that I know should have timed out at least 20 mins ago, yet these are still there. The device in question lost its 3G connection and never re-established it. I know, because in this case it was my 'phone ;) Why should the imap-login keep the copnnection in in EST, when it was dropped ages ago. I imagine that the mobile client did not correctly close down the session, but it should have timed out on the server. Any ideas? Has anyone noticed this afore? imap-logi 7819 dovecot 10u IPv4 24069447 0t0 TCP logout.klunky.co.uk:imaps->m83-178-105-240.cust.tele2.nl:39042 (ESTABLISHED) imap-logi 7820 dovecot 10u IPv4 24069443 0t0 TCP logout.klunky.co.uk:imaps->m83-178-105-240.cust.tele2.nl:52696 (ESTABLISHED) imap-logi 7821 dovecot 10u IPv4 24069536 0t0 TCP logout.klunky.co.uk:imaps->m83-178-105-240.cust.tele2.nl:55341 (ESTABLISHED) imap-logi 7822 dovecot 10u IPv4 24069464 0t0 TCP logout.klunky.co.uk:imaps->m83-178-105-240.cust.tele2.nl:44647 (ESTABLISHED) Linux fred 2.6.32-cgmemcap-smack #1 SMP Tue Dec 28 14:28:18 CET 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux Debian Squeeze.

[Dovecot] Problem with ldap / quotas
by Nikolaos Milas 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Hi, I am trying to enable per user quotas, but I get the following error: Feb 18 23:59:20 vmail dovecot: auth(default): ldap(tester,10.10.100.150): ldap_search((uid=tester)) failed: No such object It seems as if ldapsearch for username/password won't work with my new settings, but I can't find why. I run Dovecot v1.2.11 on CentOS 5.5. I changed my working dovecot.conf (see later) with the following changes (I used the roomNumber attribute to store the quota value): 1. Added in main part: mail_uid = 500 mail_gid = 500 2. Changed userdb with: userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot-usrdb-ldap.conf } and /etc/dovecot-usrdb-ldap.conf is: hosts = localhost tls = no base = ou=people, dc=example, dc=com scope = subtree ldap_version = 3 auth_bind = yes user_filter = (uid=%u) pass_filter = (uid=%u) pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password auth_bind_userdn = uid=%u,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com user_attrs = roomNumber=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$,uid=home=/home/vmail/%u 3. Changed passdb with passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot-passdb-ldap.conf } where /etc/dovecot-passdb-ldap.conf is identical to dovecot-usrdb-ldap.conf. What am I doing wrong? Please advise. Thanks in advance, Nick My working dovecot.conf is: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s disable_plaintext_auth = no syslog_facility = local1 ssl = yes ssl_cert_file = /etc/pki/CA/certs/cert-180.pem ssl_key_file = /etc/pki/CA/private/key.pem ssl_ca_file = /etc/pki/CA/certs/cert-180.pem ssl_verify_client_cert = no verbose_ssl = no login_process_size = 64 mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir/ mail_debug = no protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota imap_quota imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh } protocol pop3 { pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv mail_max_userip_connections = 3 mail_plugins = quota pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh } protocol managesieve { } protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster(a)example.com mail_plugins = quota } auth_username_chars = abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_@ auth_username_format = %Lu auth_verbose = yes auth_debug = no auth default { mechanisms = plain login passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot-ldap.conf } userdb static { args = uid=500 gid=500 home=/home/vmail/%u } user = root socket listen { client { path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode = 0660 user = postfix group = postfix } } } dict { } plugin { quota = maildir:User quota # Quota limit is 4GB quota_rule = *:storage=4G # We add 100Mb more for Trash quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=100M # We set up warnings at 75% and 90% quota_warning = storage=75%% /opt/mail.sh 75 %u quota_warning2 = storage=90%% /opt/mail.sh 90 %u } and dovecot-ldap.conf is: hosts = localhost tls = no base = ou=people, dc=example, dc=com scope = subtree ldap_version = 3 auth_bind = yes pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password auth_bind_userdn = uid=%u,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com pass_filter = (uid=%u) Finally, for reference (dovecot -n): # 1.2.11: /etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5 x86_64 CentOS release 5.5 (Final) syslog_facility: local1 ssl_ca_file: /etc/pki/CA/certs/cert-180.pem ssl_cert_file: /etc/pki/CA/certs/cert-180.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/pki/CA/private/key.pem login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_max_userip_connections(default): 10 mail_max_userip_connections(imap): 10 mail_max_userip_connections(pop3): 3 mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir/ mail_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugins(default): quota imap_quota mail_plugins(imap): quota imap_quota mail_plugins(pop3): quota mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib64/dovecot/pop3 imap_client_workarounds(default): delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh imap_client_workarounds(imap): delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh imap_client_workarounds(pop3): pop3_client_workarounds(default): pop3_client_workarounds(imap): pop3_client_workarounds(pop3): outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh lda: postmaster_address: postmaster(a)example.com mail_plugins: quota auth default: mechanisms: plain login username_format: %Lu verbose: yes passdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot-ldap.conf userdb: driver: static args: uid=500 gid=500 home=/home/vmail/%u socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix plugin: quota: maildir:User quota quota_rule: *:storage=4G quota_rule2: Trash:storage=100M quota_warning: storage=75%% /opt/mail.sh 75 %u quota_warning2: storage=90%% /opt/mail.sh 90 %u

[Dovecot] Dovecot doesn't show any e-mails, while there are a lot in the maildir
by Attila Nagy 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Hi, I've recently seen the following issue. A user logs in with pop3, and sees zero e-mails. The maildir contains emails both in cur and new. The mail delivery is done with qmail, and this user have had no logins before, so it has only the inbox, trash and sent (while dovecot is configured to create drafts and spam folders too). Because of this, the user doesn't have any dovecot indexes either. So, he logs in, and sees nothing. The strange thing is Dovecot doesn't create any of the above directories nor indexes. After moving the mailbox to another server, the user can log in, the additional folders get created and also the indexes appear. pop3 shows the correct amount of emails. Moving the mailbox back to the original server shows the same issue: no emails at all. Restarting dovecot on the original server resolves the issue. This is a pretty loaded machine, so I couldn't trace the processes. I know that this isn't too much, but that's what I have. The only thing I could identify in the error log is: Feb 17 12:45:58 pop3(varszr@asdfg): Warning: Created dotlock file's timestamp is different than current time (1297943148 vs 1297943086): /home/varszr@asdfg/Maildir/subscriptions Which may happened due to a restart and maybe a clock setting. But that was yesterday.

[Dovecot] [PATCH] Add Install section to dovecot.service, so it can be used independently from dovecot.socket
by Mike Kazantsev 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Good day, Dovecot includes nice unit files for systemd, but I've noticed that "systemctl enable dovecot.service" fails because service file does not include Install section. I assume that is because there's a .socket file, but there might be reasons when you want to enable it as a service. In my case it's one of the main services on the machine, so I'd like to see whether it's started correctly in systemctl after boot. And of course I don't want it to be killed due to "no connections timeout" at any given time. Plus, it provides authentication info for postfix daemon running on the same machine, and dovecot.socket does not handle this case. Following patch allows dovecot.service to be enabled via usual systemctl command.

[Dovecot] dovecot permission problems
by Calvin23 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Hello, I'm trying to make a dovecot installation run on my freeBSD 8.1 server, since quite a long time now, and I can't figure out how to solve my last problem. I did quite a lot of searching and many people seem to have the same problem, but I didn't manage to make any solution work on my host. So I would be glad for every hint :-) I'm using postfix with dovecot. Everything works just as expected, except one little permission problem. When dovecot tries to deliver a mail to my homedir everything is working out. I use fdm to connect to my server to download the mails, and here is where things stop to work: Here some logs: http://pastie.org/1579465 Here my dovecot -n output: http://pastie.org/1579489 I really tried a huge amount of different things, redesigned my whole configuration file from scratch etc. Does anybody has an idea how I could fix this little last problem I have here? If you need more information, please don't hesitate to ask, I wasn't sure what I should provide and didn't want to spam too much ;) With best regards, Calvin23 -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/dovecot-permission-problems-tp30960767p30960767.html Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Rewrite the mailbox copy functions works in imap but don't work in doveadm import command
by Alex Baule 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Hi Timo !! I rewrite the copy function from mailbox (using a plugin) My rewrite is like this: static int emexis_antispam_copy(struct mail_save_context *ctx, struct mail *mail){ struct mailbox *box = ctx->transaction->box; union mailbox_module_context *zbox = EMEXIS_CONTEXT(box); struct mail_private *_mail = (struct mail_private *)mail; union mail_module_context *zmail = EMEXIS_MAIL_CONTEXT(_mail); struct istream *input; const char *headerFile; char *bodyFile; int fd; int increment; ......Do some stuffs and verifications OK.... // GETTING THE FILE TO READ SOME STUFF FROM HEADER. if (zmail->super.get_stream(mail, NULL, NULL, &input) >= 0){ i_warning("GET STREAM COPY OK..."); }else{ i_warning("GET STREAM COPY NOT OK..."); } // REALLY COPY EMAIL copyret = zbox->super.copy(ctx, mail); } OK, when i use the IMAP , using a client and copy a email, it's works fine. But, when i use a doveadm import command, the part "(zmail->super.get_stream(mail, NULL, NULL, &input) >= 0)" fails, with no error message, only a segfault.... doveadm[14980]: segfault at 9c ip b7698000 sp bf83d7d0 error 4 in libdovecot.so.0.0.0[b7663000+6d000] doveadm[14983]: segfault at 9c ip b7661000 sp bf9c9ee0 error 4 in libdovecot.so.0.0.0[b762c000+6d000] doveadm[14986]: segfault at 9c ip b75b3000 sp bfcd82e0 error 4 in libdovecot.so.0.0.0[b757e000+6d000] doveadm[14989]: segfault at 9c ip b7684000 sp bfa5d3c0 error 4 in libdovecot.so.0.0.0[b764f000+6d000] There is difference between imap using a client , and doveadm import command ? If have some difference, can i identify and do some workarround ? Tks Timo !!

Re: [Dovecot] Segmentation fault running doveadm import
by Maria Arrea 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Some more info: I am running dovecot 2.0.9 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Another question I would like to ask: I run the command doveadm import as "entrega" user (see dovecot -n output in my previous mail ). If I run the command as root also segfaults, and garbage is restored (mails with binary data). If I run as "entrega" segfaults, but e-mails are correctly restored Regards Maria.

[Dovecot] Best way to migrate versions and machines
by Donny Brooks 21 Feb '11

21 Feb '11

We are looking to migrate from our current mail server running dovecot-1.2.11-3 to a new mail server running the latest dovecot (2.0.9?). So this would not only be a version change but also a machine change. We currently use Maildir for storing mail and would like to stay that way. Has anyone preformed such a feat and it worked? Looking for any input.

[Dovecot] Regenerating mdbox/sis
by dmiller＠amfes.com 21 Feb '11

21 Feb '11

It's apparent I have some level of corruption in my mailboxes - something to do with the combination of mdbox, sis, and zlib. I should note that I know I have a mix of compressed and raw messages - if that makes any difference in identifying the problems. I think I need to somehow regenerate the mailboxes with issues. Is there a suggestion for how to accomplish this? Should I perhaps use dsync to shift to a temporary mail location and then rename it back? If I DO use dsync in this manner, and I have zlib enabled - will this then compress all the messages in the new mail storage? -- Daniel

[Dovecot] IMAP flags not being committed properly?
by Janos Barbero 21 Feb '11

21 Feb '11

I'm afraid I can't give steps to reproduce this, but if someone's come across something like this, it might help me figure out what's going on. I run imapfilter/offlineimap to fetch mail from a gmail to a local maildir store, which I then access with alpine via dovecot (1.2.15). Here's the output of dovecot -n: # 1.2.15: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 i686 Debian squeeze/sid ext3 log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot-info.log log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:/data/1/mail:LAYOUT=fs mbox_write_locks: fcntl dotlock mail_plugins: fts fts_squat auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd plugin: fts: squat Just recently, I went through a bunch of old unread messages, marking them as read (in alpine). When I selected all unseen messages in pine (;sn), 18 showed up. But the count was higher within Gmail even after an expunge and offlineimap sync. So I selected all seen messages (;s!n) and marked them all as seen (a*!n). This didn't take long (for a 30k message folder) but surprisingly enough came back with the notice that 15 messages were marked as seen, and sure enough, at the next offlineimap sync, flags were updated on 15 messages. So I didn't touch anything in gmail, everything went to the maildir through dovecot via alpine, and then back to gmail via offlineimap. Yet the select command obviously did not return all the matching messages. Anyone know what's going on? Thanks, Janos

[Dovecot] dsync problem: Error: Can't rename mailbox INBOX
by Jan Binder 20 Feb '11

20 Feb '11

Hi all, I'm running two debian machines with dovecot 2.0.9 autobuilds and would like to keep mails synchronized on both via dsync. Mails are kept in maildir on both sides. While syncing, dsync gives the following error: dsync-local(jan.binder): Error: Can't rename mailbox INBOX to INBOX_a432bf2eca595a4dba47000043b078f4: Renaming INBOX isn't supported. dsync-local(jan.binder): Error: Can't rename mailbox INBOX_e184273887675a4dcc5b00000c16d079 to INBOX: Target mailbox already exists Further diagnostic information: dsync command: dsync -D -v -f mirror ssh jan.binder(a)firefly.local dsync dovecot -n on firefly.local: # 2.0.9 (159605040ec0): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.37-trunk-686-bigmem i686 Debian wheezy/sid 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 passdb { driver = pam } plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = imap lmtp ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { driver = passwd } dovecot -n on depth.local: # 2.0.9 (049a922c193c): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 x86_64 Debian wheezy/sid 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 passdb { driver = pam } plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = imap lmtp ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { driver = passwd } Should this usage of dsync work in principle?

[Dovecot] Permission denied after dist-upgrade

Hello, after I have done a dist-upgrade to Squeeze, I got some nasty problem with my dovecot.

[Dovecot] Maildir folders, separator = /, LAYOUT=fs (to support offlineimap)
by kkruzich 18 Feb '11

18 Feb '11

I use offlineimap to pull down some Gmail mail stores. With offlineimap I use sep = / and nothing more exotic. With dovecot I can see INBOX, messages, and messages in top level folders but not subfolders. I'm dealing with folder structure that looks like this: /opt/gmail/joe/Later /opt/gmail/joe/Tech/Projects /opt/gmail/joe/Tech/Projects/Fun /opt/gmail/joe/Tech/Projects/Failed /opt/gmail/joe/Tech/Projects/Planning The folder Later has cur, tmp, new and I can see messages. Projects is a container for subfolders Fun, Failed, Planning. I know Fun, Failed, Planning has messages but I'm not able to expand (via thunderbird) the folder Projects. I have this configured in dovecot.conf mail_location = maildir:/opt/gmail/joe:INBOX=/opt/gmail/joe/INBOX:LAYOUT=fs namespace private { separator = / list = yes } --- And this is what's getting logged... dovecot: Feb 18 07:26:39 Info: IMAP(joe): Namespace: type=private, prefix=, sep=/, inbox=no, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes dovecot: Feb 18 07:26:39 Info: IMAP(joe): maildir: data=/opt/gmail/joe:INBOX=/opt/gmail/joe/INBOX:LAYOUT=fs dovecot: Feb 18 07:26:39 Info: IMAP(joe): fs: root=/opt/gmail/joe, index=, control=, inbox=/opt/gmail/joe/INBOX

[Dovecot] Post login scripting and imapsync on user login

Did anyone set up the enviroment in dovecot with post login scripting in which imapsync does sync between two mailservers on users login (on login sync mail from old to new mailserver) is there a alternative or different approach? something like #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/imapsync --syncinternaldates --nosyncacls --authmech1 PLAIN --host1 old.server.com --user1 $USER*master --password1 master --authmech2 PLAIN --host2 new.server.com --user2 $USER*master --password2 master exec /usr/lib/dovecot/imap "$@" thanx -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Post-login-scripting-and-imapsync-on-user-login-tp309… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Upgrading Dovecot v1.0.10 -> v2.0.9
by Jackie Hunt 17 Feb '11

17 Feb '11

Hi all, OK, I admit it. I've seriously neglected our Dovecot installation. I installed version 1.0.10 in Jan 2008, and it has been a great workhorse since then. It has run like a champ, so it was ignored due to higher priority projects. But now it is time to get current with Dovecot, and I really need your help. We are using the mbox mailbox format. First so I want to upgrade to 2.0.9, since it looks like that is the latest version? It looks like development is still happening on the 1.x line, so do I need to get to the 2.x line? Any comments/suggestions/recommendations on that? I know there are major changes from 1.x -> 2.x.. Also, do I need to go through incremental upgrades? I'm guessing changes have been made to the index files and the dovecot configuration. Do those need to be done in steps, or can I made a major leap forward? I'd appreciate any input on this project. I need to start planning. Thanks so much! Jackie
