[Dovecot] authentication failure with known good credentials???
by Dave Stevens 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

Hi, I have a problem on my server. To illustrate, I created a new user, unclewiggly, and set up a password. I then used sent an email from my usual account. Logging in with my browser I am able to see the inbox, the mail and contents correctly. I then set up a new instance of Eudora 7.1 on my windows 7 box with the appropriate login id and check the account using the correct password. The fetch fails with the client reporting an authentication failure. Ideas? Places to look? Logfiles I can search? Maillog doesn't seem very informative, should I send a snippet?

[Dovecot] 2.0 not starting
by Luciano Mannucci 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

Hi everybody, I tried to upgrade my 1.2.13 dovecot to 2.0. The configure/make/install process seemed to work flawlessly. I created the dovenull user, converted my config with #src/config/doveconf -n -c /etc/dovecot.conf > /tmp/dovecot.conf and moved the result manually to /etc/dovecot. By typing "dovecot" (after having stopped the previous instance :), I get: Error: service(pop3-login): listen(::, 110) failed: Address already in use Error: service(imap-login): listen(::, 143) failed: Address already in use Fatal: Failed to start listeners tough nor "netstat -ta" nor "lsof -i" do show anything using port 110 or 143.

[Dovecot] Master User Features I'd like to see
by Marc Perkel 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

Here's what I'd like. Limited master users, where someone can be a master users for some domains but not others. I think I could do what I want with the right kinds of variable passing that doesn't yet exist. Let me see if I can explain clearly. From the example in the wiki: auth_master_user_separator = * passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql-master.conf.ext master = yes pass = yes } passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext } userdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext } Login looks like this: # telnet localhost 143 * OK Dovecot ready. 1 login loginuser*masteruser masterpass 1 OK Logged in. I'm assuming that the masteruser and masterpass is passed to the master passdb and when doing so the variable %u is the master user. I assume that %n and %d also represent the name and domain part of the master user. What I need is to also be able to have variables for the loginuser passed to the master user query. Something like %lu, %ln, and %ld perhaps. That way with MySQL tricks I might be able to see if the master user is master for that particular login user. That way I can give domain owners or owners of multiple domains the ability to manage the email accounts within their scope of permission.

[Dovecot] cluster with dsync mirror
by Bryan Vyhmeister 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

I have an idea for running a pair of redundant dovecot mail servers that may be odd but it might work. I'm interested in any thoughts on the topic. Would it work to run 'dsync mirror' every minute against either mdbox or sdbox mailbox on a dedicated network connection between two (or potentially three or four) mail servers? I'm trying to avoid using a NAS/SAN or some other dedicated NFS server in a simple environment with a limited number of users. Everything else about the systems could be identical. Both could receive mail using Postfix with dovecot LDA. Thank you. Bryan

However I am going to rename the package to dovecot2 in order to separate it from dovecot 1.x installs. My idea there is to allow the user to continue with the dovecot 1.x line in the event of patch updates and further releases from that tree ( like dovecot 1.2.13 ) while also maintaining the ver 2.x family. However I don't think I'll support multiple instances of dovecot ( regardless of version ) in the same Solaris zone.

[Dovecot] dovecot: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=14267
by Jerrale G 16 Aug '10

I don't know if dovecot 2.0 will have this already or not but, when dovecot is stopped or started, it would be nice to have the PID reported in the log for various uses. Jerrale Gayle SC Senior Admin

[Dovecot] Split number of imap-login and pop3-login processes
by Mischa Peters 16 Aug '10

16 Aug '10

Hi All, Is there a way to define the number for imap-login processes and pop3-login processes separately? My mail server is getting more IMAP clients and much less POP3 clients these days and it continues to run out of authentication processes. I have been increasing login_max_processes_count the last couple of days and I noticed that it's split between IMAP and POP3. All 129 imap-login processes are tied up while there are only 3 of the 129 pop3-login processes in use. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanx!!

Suppose I have users with a default password like "change-my-password" and I want to detect users who haven't changed their password and alert (nag) them about changing it. How would I do that?

[Dovecot] Address book for 2.0?
by Jerrale G 16 Aug '10

16 Aug '10

2.0 could include a directory service, like MS Exchange, where people's address books within IMAP clients could be stored on the server and retrievable by the clients. Its a headache for users to roam from pc to pc and not have someone's address stored locally on another. Jerrale G SC Senior Admin

Re: [Dovecot] turn Usernames in Lowercase
by Leander S. 15 Aug '10

15 Aug '10

Hi again, I solved the issue. Thanks any way and excuse the noise. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables Regards ________________________________________________________________________ Hi, I'm just curious how to force usernames to be modified to lowercase letters if one mixes uper and lower case letters to one salad? Cause my SpamAssassin gets confuesd and treats different spellings of Usernames as different Users - which is uncool. I've heard about something you can add in your dovecot.config to enforce lowercase letters only. Thanks

[Dovecot] Fatal: dict_driver_register(mysql): Already registered

All mail will sooner or later get delivered, using dovecot LDA from postfix, but these errors rampage the log several times. I recently added managesieve, expires, and finished the quota which I thought was achived by simply having quota_rule as a result of mysql. Aug 10 15:07:57 server1 dovecot: IMAP(someone(a)sheltoncomputers.com): read(/var/run/dovecot/dict-server) failed: Timeout after 30 seconds Aug 10 15:07:57 server1 dovecot: dict: Fatal: dict_driver_register(mysql): Already registered Aug 10 15:08:09 server1 last message repeated 4428 times On another note, Thunderbird is starting to get on my nerves, sending this message before I was finished. Here is the relevant config: dovecot-mysql query: user_query = SELECT CONCAT('/home/mail/', mailboxes.domain, '/', mailboxes.username, '/') AS home, CONCAT('/home/mail/', mailboxes.domain, '/', mailboxes.username, '/sieve/', mailboxes.username, '.sieve') as sieve, CONCAT('/home/mail/', mailboxes.domain, '/', mailboxes.username, '/sieve/') as sieve_dir, CONCAT('/home/mail/', mailboxes.domain, '/', mailboxes.username, '/mail/') AS maildir, uid AS uid, gid AS gid, CONCAT('maildir:storage=', ROUND(mailboxes.quota/1200), 'M') AS quota_rule, 'Trash:ignore' AS quota_rule2 FROM mail.mailboxes WHERE username = '%n' AND domain = '%d' AND active = '1' dovecot.conf: protocol managesieve { listen = localhost:2001 managesieve_implementation_string = dovecot managesieve_logout_format = bytes ( in=%i : out=%o ) mail_executable = /usr/libexec/dovecot/managesieve login_executable = /usr/libexec/dovecot/managesieve-login } auth_debug = no auth default { mechanisms = plain login passdb sql { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf # scheme = cram-md5 } userdb sql { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf } user = mail socket listen { client { path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth user = postfix group = postfix mode = 0660 } master { path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode = 0666 } } } dict { # # NOTE: dict process currently runs as root, so this file will be owned as root. expire = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dict-expire.conf quotadict = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dict-quota.conf } plugin { quota = dict:user::proxy::quotadict expire = Trash 7 Trash/* 7 Spam 30 expire_dict = proxy::expire expire_altmove = * 2555 sieve_global_path = /home/mail/sieve/global.sieve sieve_global_dir = /home/mail/sieve sieve_dir=/home/mail/%d/%n/sieve } As said, everything works, eventually, but mail delivery is delayed a lot. With The dict {} and expire-related parts commented out, operation has no errors or delays; performance is exceptional with maildir, quota, sieve, and managesieve. I don't think managesieve would patch any part of the dictionary code as it only has to do with another service process, not a plugin; if the patching was to cause problems with other services, for the service definition coding, the other services would have a problem, correct? The expires dictionary mysql table was being correctly used, with one day of use, as there are 10000 records; I'm going to have to revise the mysql indexes for performance in case I am able to fix the dictionary problem. We like the 1.2.13 version of dovecot, as far as security, and wonder how I can find a correct defintion scripting for the dict {}, from a previous version, and merge. We are use to windows compilations. I am skeptical to go to dovecot 2.0 as our services are in production and 2.0 is beta. I have recompiled several times with fresh sources of dovecot 1.2.13, managesieve 0.11.11 patchl, and sieve 1.0.17 as directed by the Dovecot Wiki. Jerrale G, SCA
