by Henrique Fernandes 06 Oct '10

06 Oct '10

Hey, i am gonna migrate 240 GB of emails. To a new server with dovecot 2.0.4 and i am gonna also change the format from mbox to maildir. Everything is pretty ready. But i now need two things. First is, is there any command to rebuild index files in dovecot ? And i need to force a initial squat build, need comand for it also. It is about 5 thousands accounts. Its prefere have this built in dovecot than run a script that log in every sing account to make dovecot index the files, and after it make a small search to make initial squat also. Any one can help ? []'sf.rique

Looks like it's also possible to use doveadm http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Mailbox

Hello, There is the autocreate plugin[1], but the problem is that a user cannot delete those mailboxes. It can be a problem for people using clients in different languages and that want mailboxes in these languages. I would be great if Dovecot could make some of these automatic mailboxes optional.

[Dovecot] release plan for dovecot antispam plugin?
by Tom Hendrikx 06 Oct '10

06 Oct '10

Hi, I noticed that someone took over the development of the dovecot antispam plugin, and the is currently hosted at dovecots hg repo. Great to see that the plugin is not dead! ;) I created a gentoo ebuild that builds the plugin from the repo, and the plugin seems to work nice with dspam (using mailtrain backend). I'm running a checkout from Tue Sep 21 16:14:48 2010. However, it is lacking a release so distributions can also easily update the plugin. Is there any news on this? Regards, Tom

[Dovecot] LMTP proxy too many DATA output timeout (perhaps)
by Luca Palazzo 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

Hi All, we are getting a lot of this message from dovecot director. They seem to be too many. Backend servers do not log anything and postfix logs a lot of these errors. It seems that dovecot strategy handgling data output timeout when proxying LMTP is or too aggressive or may have some other problem. This error generate sometime a lot of dupicate deliveries, probably because meanwhile real server has finished delivering the mail, proxy drops the connection. Another symptom, maybe related to duplicate uid patch, is that we are receiving blank email. What may I look further? Regards Luca

[Dovecot] Proxying LMTP - Auth PASS lookup failed
by Edward Carraro 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

I'm trying to configure my proxy/director server, which proxies imap/pop/managesieve correctly already, to proxy LMTP to my backend message store server (dovecot+postfix already configured there) This is what I have so far: 10-auth.conf using auth-static.conf.ext instead of auth-ldap.conf.ext (switching to this made proxying imap/pop/managesieve work) 10-director.conf protocol lmtp { auth_socket_path = /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/director-userdb } 10-master.conf (changed user from vmail to dovecot as it was giving permission denied error before -- on the backend dovecot server this is still 'vmail') unix_listener auth-userdb { mode = 0600 user = dovecot } 20-lmtp.conf lmtp_proxy = yes auth-static.conf.ext passdb { driver = static args = proxy=y nopassword=y } my dovecot logs show: auth: Debug: password(user(a)dev.domain.com): passdb doesn't support credential lookups lmtp(1261): Error: user user(a)dev.domain.com: Auth PASS lookup failed postfix show: [private/dovecot-lmtp] said: 451 4.3.0 <user(a)dev.domain.com> Temporary user lookup failure (in reply to RCPT TO command) Any ideas? Something missing/incorrect? Thanks!

[Dovecot] Can't receive emails

Hello everyone, I installed postfix and dovecot (imap + pop) on a debian server. I can send emails via postfix and I could receive emails via dovecot before. Yesterday my server got shutdown and restarted and since then, I somehow have some problems. If I send some emails, I don't receive them in /var/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir But the login works fine (pop and imap). How can I figure out, why there are no mails comming?

[Dovecot] Another dovecot-lda / deliver Segfault
by Michael P 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

I just upgraded from 1.2.11 to 2.0.5. When I send mail from a virtual local user, to another virtual local user, the email sends fine (passing though postfix, then amavisd, then to dovecot deliver) and the recipient receives it, but during this deliver segfaults (pointing to libdovecot.storage.0.0.0) and sends an undeliverable message back to the original sender. This does not happen if someone outside the localdomain sends mail, and does not happen sending from local to a remote address, just purely from virtal to virtual locally.

[Dovecot] question on quota configuration on 2.0.5

Hi, On dovecot 1.2 i had the following configuration on my dovecot-sql.conf file: password_query = select endereco as user, password, '/var/spool/mail/%u' as userdb_home, 'maildir:/var/spool/mail/%u' as userdb_mail, 8 as userdb_uid, 12 as userdb_gid, concat('*:storage=', quota) as userdb_quota_rule, 'Trash:storage=100M' as userdb_quota_rule2 from emails where endereco = '%u' and ativa = '1' special attention to 'Trash:storage=100M' as userdb_quota_rule2 after migrating to 2.0.5, i got this warning on the logs: Oct 3 16:06:41 ns2 dovecot: imap(user(a)domain.com), rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1: Warning: quota root User quota rule Trash:storage=100M: obsolete configuration for rule 'storage=100M' should be changed to 'storage=+100M' Oct 3 16:08:09 ns2 dovecot: imap(user(a)domain.com), rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1: Error: quota: Unknown namespace: Trash about changing 100M to +100M, that's OK, no problem .... but even after changing that, i still keep getting the 'unknown namespace' message. question: what's the correct way of doing this configuration on dovecot 2.0 ? The idea of this configuration is to give plus 100M of the user's quota on the Trash folder, thus avoiding problems with out webmail which copies messages to trash before erasing from the actual folder. -- Atenciosamente / Sincerily, Leonardo Rodrigues Solutti Tecnologia http://www.solutti.com.br Minha armadilha de SPAM, NÃO mandem email gertrudes(a)solutti.com.br My SPAMTRAP, do not email it

[Dovecot] v1.2.15 released
by Timo Sirainen 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.15.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/dovecot-1.2.15.tar.gz.sig See the "ACL handling bugs" message for more details about the ACL merging bug. * acl: Fixed the logic of merging multiple ACL entries. Now it works as documented, while previously it could have done slightly different things depending on the order of the entries. * acl: Don't give admin rights to all owner mailboxes. This was originally done to make sure that mailbox owner couldn't accidentally remove their own admin rights. But this is already prevented by SETACL command, so it's not necessary. Also sysadmin may have intentionally removed some admin rights from some mailboxes (especially when using symlinked shared mailboxes). - Maildir: Fixed potential "Duplicate file entry" in dovecot-uidlist file errors. - Maildir: Avoid unnecessary uidlist recreation during mail delivery. - imap: When SELECT fails, it didn't close the previous mailbox. - Dovecot master process could have died if it got SIGCHLD signals very rapidly while it was trying to log. This could have happened for example if a lot of imap/pop3 sessions disconnected at the exact same time.

[Dovecot] deliver and time
by Rick Romero 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

Hi All, I've been experimenting with deliver on my personal domain, and so far everything has been peachy except for Mail.app. Mail.app (on multiple devices) is showing what looks to be GMT times, rather than the date header. Initially I thought it was something I did on my Mac, until I got an Ipad to test with - and never connected it to my Mac - and had the same time issue. It seems Mail.app uses the timestamp ('arrived date'?) on the mail file itself (Maildir here) to display the time. So.. I have dovecot 1.2.10 installed on top of vpopmail (multiple MXs, delivering to OpenSolaris NFS share via tcp), and it seems that deliver is using the GMT time when writing the Maildir file, and vdelivermail just uses the adjusted time.. Or maybe it just allows the OS to write the timestamp. Either way, is this a known issue with deliver - or is there a patch? I don't recall ever seeing it come up on the list, and I'm not seeing anything in the changelog. Rick

[Dovecot] Released Pigeonhole Sieve v0.1.18 and ManageSieve v0.11.12 for Dovecot v1.2.15
by Stephan Bosch 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

Hello Dovecot users, The recent release of Dovecot v1.2.15 is a good opportunity to release new versions of Sieve and ManageSieve for Dovecot v1.2. These releases consist entirely of bugfixes and introduce no new features. Changelog Sieve v0.1.18: - Imap4flags: fixed segfault bug occuring in multiscript context. Occured in specific situations when a script using imap4flags was followed in the sequence by scripts not using imap4flags. - Imap4flags: fixed bug in setflag command; when parameter was a stringlist, only the last item was actually set. - Prevented assertion failure due to currupt binary string representation. If the string were missing a final \0 character an assertion was produced in stead of a binary corruption error. - Multiscript: fixed duplicate implicit keep caused by erroneous execution state update. - Fixed Sieve script name checking to properly handle length limit and added 0x00ff as invalid character. - Removed spurious old stdio.h (top) includes; these caused compile issues on specific systems. - Fixed default Sieve capability (as reported by ManageSieve): extra extensions spamtest, spamtestplus and virustest were enabled by default. These should, however, only be enabled when properly configured and there is no default configuration. - Variables extension: fixed :length set modifier to recognize utf8 characters in stead of octets. - Fixed unnecessary reporting of dummy extensions in ManageSieve SIEVE capability; the comparator-i;octet and comparator-i;ascii-numeric 'extensions' were reported explicitly. - LDA Sieve plugin: added _version symbol to enable Dovecot's plugin version check. Without this check, people can forget to recompile the plugin, which can lead to unexpected effects. Changelog ManageSieve v0.11.12: - Fixed error handling of PUTSCRIPT commmand; save commit errors would not make the command fail. - Fixed PUTSCRIPT bug causing it to hang when given an empty script name. The releases are available as follows: Sieve http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.18.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.18.tar.gz.sig ManageSieve http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.12.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.12.tar.gz.… ManageSieve patch http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.15-managesieve-0.11.12.diff… http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.15-managesieve-0.11.12.diff… Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot wiki for more information. Have fun testing this new release and don't hesitate to notify me when there are any problems. Regards, -- Stephan Bosch stephan(a)rename-it.nl

[Dovecot] [2.0.5] quota in maildirsize doesn't work with mdbox
by interfaSys sàrl 04 Oct '10

04 Oct '10

Hello, I'm using mdbox to store messages and maildirsize to store quotas I have the following in my dovecot.conf mail_plugins = quota trash zlib fts fts_squat imap_quota imap_zlib antispam quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = ?:storage=1G quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+10%% I noticed that the quotas were wrong, so I sent myself some emails in hope of seeing the ratio change to the correct values, but the amount of used space changed to the total of what was just received, not the total of what was in the mailbox. So I tried to recalculate the quota using doveadm quota recalc, but it didn't help, instead of recalculating the amount of used space, it just wrote 0 0 to maildirsize. Do I have a config problem or is someting broken in Dovecot? Cheers, Olivier

[Dovecot] v2.0.5 released
by Timo Sirainen 04 Oct '10

04 Oct '10

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/dovecot-2.0.5.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/dovecot-2.0.5.tar.gz.sig See the "ACL handling bugs" message for more details about the ACL merging bug. * acl: Fixed the logic of merging multiple ACL entries. Now it works as documented, while previously it could have done slightly different things depending on the order of the entries. * virtual: Allow opening virtual mailboxes that refer to non-existing mailboxes. It seems that the benefits of this outweigh the lack of error message when typoing a mailbox name. + Added some disk I/O optimizations to Maildir and index code. They're especially helpful with short-lived connections like POP3. + pop3: Added pop3_fast_size_lookups setting. - doveconf sometimes failed with complaining about missing ssl_key setting, causing e.g. dovecot-lda to fail. - lda: If there's an error in configuration, doveconf didn't exit with EX_TEMPFAIL as it should have. - sdbox: Fixed memory leak when copying messages with hard links. - zlib + sdbox combination didn't work - zlib: Fixed several crashes, which mainly showed up with mbox. - quota: Don't crash if user has quota disabled, but plugin loaded. - doveadm fetch uid was actually returning sequence, not uid. - v2.0.4's subscription listing ignored (and logged a warning about) subscriptions=no namespaces' entries in some configurations. (So listing shared mailboxes' subscriptions could have been broken.) - acl: Fixed crashing when sometimes listing shared mailboxes via dict proxy.

[Dovecot] Setting up the Director
by Jason 'XenoPhage' Frisvold 04 Oct '10

04 Oct '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I'm trying to wrap my head around the Director and how it works, but I'm not having much luck finding documentation. Currently, I have two front end mail servers that use NFS for mail storage. I'm using Cisco's SLB for load balancing, though I may switch over to a server-based load balancing solution at some point. SLB works great, but it doesn't guarantee that a given user will stick to the same server. At least, not as it's configured now.. But, regardless, I want to move away from SLB so I can have a bit more control. If I want to implement the Director, do I need to have additional machines, or does it get configured on the front end mail machines? I'm thinking the former, but hoping for the latter.. :P Does anyone know of a really good write-up about the director and how it works? thanks, - --------------------------- Jason 'XenoPhage' Frisvold xenophage(a)godshell.com - --------------------------- "Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology." - - Niven's Inverse of Clarke's Third Law -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.14 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAkypPLcACgkQ8CjzPZyTUTT+/QCfUpOS4mdc6hMCZLXAYIlnfOdL XfcAmgIH0n1peB1qHKSfIps0wQ8dbHxF =h8Xt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
