[Dovecot] I can acces my pop3 account but I can't send an email trough smtp
by Ricky Tompu Breaky 01 Oct '09

Dear my friends.... I use OpenSuSE 11.1, KMail and DoveCot version: " sussy:/etc/ssl/certs # dovecot --version 1.1.7 ". This is the configuration of my DoveCot: " sussy:/etc/ssl/certs # dovecot -n # 1.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.27.29-0.1-default i686 openSUSE 11.1 (i586) base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log protocols: imap imaps pop3 listen(default): * listen(imap): * listen(pop3): *:110 ssl_disable: yes disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot//login login_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3-login login_greeting: Dovecot of MyGoogle.Com ready. mail_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/pop3 auth default: debug_passwords: yes passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd ". I have created local linux user account on my Postfix+DoveCot server. I also can access the content of my mailbox from my KMail. I am so happy but once I try to send email (testing the smtp) than I realize that I can't send an email from my email client (KMail). I use this setting on my email client: 1. 'incoming mailserver' == 'outgoing mailserver' == 'mail.mygoogle.com' (pseudonome). Also username and password are all the same between incoming/outgoing mailserver, namely the local userlogin of LINUX. As the username, I put 'ricky' (but not 'ricky(a)mygoogle.com'). 2. smtp authentication: No encryption and plaintext. The error message on my KMail is: " Sending failed: Your SMTP server does not support The server responded: "5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: generic failure". Choose a different authentication method. The server responded: "5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: generic failure" The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the 'outbox' folder. The following transport was used: mygoogle.com Do you want me to continue sending the remaining messages? " and also: " Sending failed: Your SMTP server does not support The server responded: "5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: generic failure". Choose a different authentication method. The server responded: "5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: generic failure" The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the 'outbox' folder. The following transport was used: mygoogle.com ". I'm stucked again. Please help me. Tell me where my mistake. Thank you very much in advance.

[Dovecot] Encryption Plugin
by Patrick McLean 01 Oct '09

01 Oct '09

Hi, There was a discussion a few months ago about a plugin for encrypting email before it hit the disk on the server, and doing transparent decryption while serving data to the client, see: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2009-July/041262.html We have a client/user who is interested in such a plugin, and I was wondering if there has been any progress on it yet. In our particular case, server-side on-the-fly decryption would be acceptable. This service is useful in the case of a somewhat paranoid user who does not want the IT staff to have direct access to their email, without going through some major hoops (http://hushmail.com actually offers both server and client side decryption for these reasons). The way I would imagine the plugin working is public-key encryption being done on the message as it was being delivered (plug in to dovecot's deliver). Then when a client connects, the private key is decrypted with the user's password and used to decrypt the messages on the fly. Depending on performance, it may be an idea to convert messages to use symmetric with rotating keys encrypted with the public key encryption. If this were going to be done, I would think an IMAP protocol extension may be an idea so client-side encryption would be an option as well, so there would be end-to-end security.

[Dovecot] OT: IMAP folder aliases
by Patrick Ben Koetter 01 Oct '09

01 Oct '09

It seems that there is no standard for folder names that deal with typical message classes such as drafts, outbox, sent, spam etc. At least there's no common sense on a naming convention that tells how client should handle this. Worse than this, most IMAP clients auto-create folders according to their own naming convention if they don't exist. Every client introduces its own view. Users OTOH expect a single view that makes it easy for them to find their messages. They are unwilling to search in "sent", "sent-mail" or "Sent items" for "messages that have been sent". I doubt that software producers will adopt a standard naming convention if it was introduced within a useful time span. Has anyone seen an approach or a solution that solves the problem from a users point of view? A server side alias list that maps to a server standard? p@rick -- state of mind Digitale Kommunikation http://www.state-of-mind.de Franziskanerstraße 15 Telefon +49 89 3090 4664 81669 München Telefax +49 89 3090 4666 Amtsgericht München Partnerschaftsregister PR 563

[Dovecot] Password and special caracter
by Gilles Albusac 01 Oct '09

01 Oct '09

Problem : I have a problem with special character in the password. Character like ! * é are deleted My configuration : - a smtp server with Postfix 2.6 and Dovcot 1.1.11. - a windows 2003 server with active directory for accounts and boxes I use SMTP / SASL on my postfix 2.6 to authenticate my remote laptop users (allow legitimate users to relay mail). To do that, I use SASL Dovecot fonctionnality and ldap request to verify login/password who are declared on a server in Windows 2003 (Active Directory). It works fine with simple password but not with complex password. I have a problem with special character in the password. Character like ! * é are deleted before comparaison. Any idea ? Regards

Fair enough. But I never saved the tail when the problem occured. I can now extract this again from the info log (getting everything between 11:06 to 11:08 which should be within the problem time...). Who should I send it to? It's 181 lines to 'privatize' and I'd prefere not to send a unprivatized file to the list...

[Dovecot] Compile dovecot 1.2.5 with managesieve patch 0.11.9?
by Seba 01 Oct '09

Hi, is it possible to compile dovecot 1.2.5 with the managesieve patch 0.11.9 which is for dovecot 1.2.4 or is it better to wait if a new managesieve patch is released? Maybe 1.2.5 will work too? Thanks, Seba

[Dovecot] Some issues in Dovecot 1.2.5 after upgrade from 1.0.15
by Chris Wakelin 01 Oct '09

01 Oct '09

We upgraded from Dovecot 1.0.15 to 1.2.5 last night, on Solaris 10 using mboxes, mostly without issues. However I had to trash the index/cache files (too many folders were showing corruption issues which is especially bad for Prayer Webmail ".prayer" folders that store preferences; Prayer sees a disconnection as the folder being missing!). I've had one imap process panic in mailbox sync (as I mentioned above, the index files have been newly created in 1.2.5): > Sep 30 09:57:10 imap-login: Info: Login: user=<xxxxxxxx>, method=PLAIN, rip=134.225.xx.xx, lip=134.225.16.6 > Sep 30 09:57:10 imap-login: Info: Login: user=<xxxxxxxx>, method=PLAIN, rip=134.225.xx.xx, lip=134.225.16.6 > Sep 30 09:57:11 IMAP 25384 xxxxxxxx 134.225.xx.xx : Panic: file mail-index-sync-update.c: line 933 (mail_index_sync_map): assertion failed: (map->hdr.indexid == index->indexid || map->hdr.indexid == 0) > Sep 30 09:57:11 dovecot: Error: child 25384 (imap) killed with signal 6 (core dumped) This looks like it was the user's first connection since the upgrade, as well.

[Dovecot] How many concurrent IMAP sessions?

Has anybody ever bothered to measure how many concurrent IMAP sessions dovecot can handle? I know it depends on hardware, filesystem, mailbox type etc., but what exactly controls the number and what have people on the list measured? p@rick -- state of mind Digitale Kommunikation http://www.state-of-mind.de Franziskanerstraße 15 Telefon +49 89 3090 4664 81669 München Telefax +49 89 3090 4666 Amtsgericht München Partnerschaftsregister PR 563

[Dovecot] deliver doesn't support !include directive, mail is bounced
by Christoph Berkemeier 30 Sep '09

30 Sep '09

Hello, dovecot deliver is used here as a LDA. When I add !include /usr/local/etc/$INCLUDE.FILE to my dovecot.conf I get this error in the maillog: relay=local, delay=0.04, delays=0.02/0/0/0.02, dsn=5.3.5, status=bounced (local configuration error. Command output: Fatal: Error in config file /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf: deliver doesn't support !include directive /usr/local/etc/$INCLUDE.FILE contains: listen: $HOSTNAME ssl_cert_file: /etc/$FILE ssl_key_file: /etc/$FILE auth_krb5_keytab = /etc/$FILE It would be nice if this bug gets fixed or a comment add, that you can not use include, when you use deliver as your LDA.

[Dovecot] deliver: Fatal: setgid(114) failed with euid=8, gid=8, egid=8: Operation not permitted
by Fredriksson Turbo 30 Sep '09

30 Sep '09

I'm calling 'deliver' from Postfix and in some cases from Procmail. I set this system up more than six months ago and it's been working flawlessly until yesterday (16:52:19 local time) when it, without any apparent reason, just stopped delivering mails! Lots of checking and googling (I've forgot how exacly I setup the system :), I made 'deliver' SUID and it worked again... But it seems that all mails that was received between 16:52:19 and 11:07:52 (which was the last mail that couldn't be delivered) is lost! Is there any way to avoid mails being lost for reasons such as this? Is this a Postfix, Procmail or Dovecot thing? This system runs on a Ubuntu Intrepid: Postfix v2.5.5-1 Procmail v3.22-16ubuntu3 Dovecot v1:1.1.4-0ubuntu1.3 Thinking it over again (when double checking this mail), it might have been a automatic "de-SUID thingie or other" in Ubuntu. If memory serves me right, there used to be something like that in Debian long ago... But for whatever reason it DID happen, I'd appreciate an idea on how to avoid loosing mails if something happens to the delivery process...

[Dovecot] sieve & vacation - ignores "days" parameter
by Jacek Osiecki 30 Sep '09

30 Sep '09

Hi, I am going further with dovecot configuration. Finally managed to configure roundcube 0.3 with managesieve plugin. And it works, although... not perfectly :( For some issues probably roundcube-managesieve is guilty, but simply the sieve plugins seems to work wrong. Here is my sieve file: require ["vacation","fileinto"]; # rule:[wakacje] if anyof (true) { vacation :days 7 text: I am on vacation . ; } # rule:[silver-save] elsif allof (header :is "From" "joshua(a)hybrid.pl") { fileinto "myown"; stop; } And it seems, that sieve ignores ":days 7" parameter. Every time I send the email to this account, I receive the automatic answer. Maybe I misconfigured something? Where does vacation plugin store the information on emails that have already received the automatic answer? Best regards, -- Jacek Osiecki joshua(a)ceti.pl GG:3828944 I don't want something I need.

[Dovecot] dbox: maildir migration
by Timo Sirainen 30 Sep '09

30 Sep '09

I'm trying to clean up the code for Dovecot v2.0 and I just keep coming back to the same thought: Is having the super-fast maildir -> single-dbox migration really actually a good idea? Some problems with it: 1. Makes the code more complex.. And I've already fixed many bugs related to that, maybe not all. 2. Having some mails in maildir format and others in dbox format isn't really good in long term. The super-fast migration was mainly meant to be used as a quick and easy way to start using dbox and then slowly convert maildir files to dbox files. 3. There's currently no way to actually convert the migrated maildir files to dbox format. And I'm not really sure how such a tool would even be used. "doveadm -u <username> dbox convert-old-maildir-files" run one user at a time?.. Maybe a better alternative would be to simply do a proper full migration to dbox format, a few users at a time so disk I/O wouldn't explode? dsync especially could be helpful here. convert plugin could be replaced with a dsync plugin and then a migration could be done with: 1. Run a "pre-migration" dsync for n users (not absolutely required, but a good idea to avoid login delays). 2. Enable dsync plugin for the users (or this could be enabled always). 3. Switch users to dbox format. 4. Run a "post-migration" dsync for the users. If any user logged in before the post-migration was finished, the dsync plugin would finish the migration for that user. 5. Goto 1 with another set of users, repeat until finished with all users.

[Dovecot] getmail and Dovecot LDA deliver
by spacejam 29 Sep '09

29 Sep '09

Hello, my first post in this list. Hope it's the right place.:-) I'm having a problem running getmail together with Dovecot LDA for virtual users. To achive this I let getmail run under the user that owns the virtual email accounts-root. The problem is that getmail is running under the user vmail and therefore the emails received will be put into vmail's mailbox. But the emails getmail collected are actually for a virtual Dovecot user which has its maildir in a subdirectory of vmails home. The settings for the virtual users seem to be okay: I can login on Dovecot with virtual user account and I can send emails to Postfix for the virtual user. Postfix correctly uses devlier with the name of the virtual user and so the emails are going to the correct directory. For me it seems that getmail always uses the username under which getmail is currently running. As this must be a local user, getmails always announces this local user to deliver and deliver therefore puts the emails into the wrong account. My question is: How do I let deliver know that it should use a virtual user? I tried with the -d agrument in my getmail rc File, but deliver never accepts the parameter -d (always says unknown parameter -d). I tried as well to let getmail or deliver to be run as root, but then the emails will be delivered to roots home, which is not the goal too... Does anyone know a way how I can set getmail to handle emails for a virtual account properly? Any hint is appreciated as it already costed me hours of try-and-error Regards tobi -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/getmail-and-Dovecot-LDA-deliver-tp24896318p24896318.h… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Enabling security on POP3 and IMAP
by Richard Hobbs 29 Sep '09

29 Sep '09

Hello, Currently, on our new test server, I am offering IMAP on 143 and POP3 on 110. We would like to enable security on both of these protocols to attempt to eliminate the risk from an internal password-grabbing/content-grabbing attack. I presume this would mean enabling SSL, and a more securure authentication, right? Or are plain text passwords just sent over the SSL, and therefore perfectly secure? Also, what are the steps to enable security for these protocols on an already-configured server? Is it possible to offer encrypted and non-encrypted services simultaneously, so people have a choice of whether they want security or not? I know that's a bit weird, but for testing it would be useful. Finally, is there a way to monitor which users are connecting over the secure ports and which users are connecting over the non-secure ports? Thanks in advance!

[Dovecot] compressed IMAP traffic
by Leonardo Rodrigues 29 Sep '09

29 Sep '09

Simply (and maybe stupid) question ...... is there anything that can be easily used to automatically compress IMAP traffic between client and server ? I was thinking if the SSL/TLS code enables some kind of compression as well. the idea is to reduce IMAP traffic between server and clients and not using VPN-like solutions, the idea is just some IMAP4 standard client (compatible with SSL/TLS if that's the case) and nothing else. can something like that be done ? -- 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
