[Dovecot] v1.2.alpha4 released
by Timo Sirainen 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/alpha/dovecot-1.2.alpha4.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/alpha/dovecot-1.2.alpha4.tar.gz.sig Note that there are significant changes in this release from alpha3 and I haven't tested everything extensively. Be careful. The next release will hopefully be v1.2.beta1 with a feature freeze. Most importantly shared mailboxes and IMAP ACLs are finally supported. This is mainly thanks to the Kolab people (looks like I forgot your names from NEWS file, the next release will have them). I'll have to write a wiki page about ACLs, but the main thing you need to know is that if you want shared mailboxes to be LISTable by other users, you'll need to specify acl_dict. If you don't expect many shared mailboxes, a file backend is the easiest, but you could also use SQL or Berkeley DB. With a file backend you could also create per-domain files, which will improve performance if you don't need cross-domain shared mailboxes. You could do this with e.g.: acl_file = /home/virtual/%d/shared-mailboxes Also full text searching works now better with virtual mailboxes. Previously the fts would have duplicated the indexes for virtual mailboxes. Now with Solr backend it searches the original mailboxes directly. Although this is still missing some optimizations and also it doesn't check first if mails are missing from the original mailboxes, so it may not find everything. Also this still doesn't work with Squat backend.. Anyway, a bit more code and Dovecot will have fast full text searching from all mailboxes (virtual * mailbox). I implemented also draft-gulbrandsen-imap-response-codes-04, which adds some [codes] for all IMAP command failures, which should make it possible for clients to figure out more easily what caused the failure. Hopefully the draft won't change much anymore. :)

[Dovecot] Dovecot as proxy for M$ Exchange mailboxes
by Axel Schmalowsky 30 Nov '08

30 Nov '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, is there a way to use dovecot as proxy for m$ exchange mailboxes? Currently, our clients not only can login to their mailboxes with their e-mail address but also with their accountid. Both the clients e-mail address and accountid are stored in ldap. Now I need a way to let dovecot rewriting the client's accountid to the respective e-mail address. Is this possible with the proxy-feature of dovecot? Any hints would be appreciated. - -- Freundliche Grüße / Kind regards Axel Schmalowsky Platform Engineer ___________________________________ domainfactory GmbH Oskar-Messter-Str. 33 85737 Ismaning Germany Telefon: +49 (0)89 / 55266-356 Telefax: +49 (0)89 / 55266-222 E-Mail: aschmalowsky(a)df.eu Internet: www.df.eu Registergericht: Amtsgericht München HRB 150294, Geschäftsführer Tobias Marburg, Jochen Tuchbreiter -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJL+JKsuqpduCyZM0RAoFUAJ9mPbv5eI5xP54YhwlmOs40F1RxDQCgir5l jCdaNeXKO8FnOCxaKSI7S4E= =m5WN -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot - Vpopmail subdirectories
by Yacoubi Mohamed 28 Nov '08

Hello, Thank you for this link, but this is not what I want. Dovecot is only used for imap. Currently, authentication works fine, but new fields are created in a subdirectory. Example: /var/vpopmail/domains/0/domain.com Once authenticated, I just want to be in chroot /var/vpopmail/domains/0/domain.com/user and not in /var/vpopmail/domains/domain.com/user I explained that vpopmail which manages the creation of areas and I can not influence the subdirectory.

[Dovecot] ManageSieve and invalid scriptname
by Miguel Filho 28 Nov '08

28 Nov '08

Hello there, I have been using pysieved and avelsieve and it has been working great. I decided to do test with the ManageSieve patch and got this problem: Nov 27 17:21:29 cambui dovecot: MANAGESIEVE(miguel): sieve-storage: using active sieve script path: ~/.dovecot.sieve Nov 27 17:21:29 cambui dovecot: MANAGESIEVE(miguel): sieve-storage: using sieve script storage directory: ~/.sieve Nov 27 17:21:29 cambui dovecot: MANAGESIEVE(miguel): sieve-storage: relative path to sieve storage in active link: .sieve/ Nov 27 17:21:29 cambui dovecot: MANAGESIEVE(miguel): sieve-storage: Active sieve script symlink /home/admsis/miguel/.dovecot.sieve is broken: invalid scriptname (points to .sieve/phpscript). Well as you can see, a file without the .sieve is not welcome :-( I checked the RFC and there is no requirement for a .sieve file extension when considering scriptnames. http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-martin-managesieve-12#section-1.6 Is this a misplaced restriction or it really should be enforced for any reason? I hope that this can be tolerable, or I will have to rename a lot of scripts and remove all hardcoded "phpscript" strings from avelsieve :-( Regards and thanks for the great work. Miguel

[Dovecot] Sieve and global scripts
by Allan Cassaro 28 Nov '08

28 Nov '08

Hi Stephan Bosch, there's any way to make the dovecot deliver agent (with sieve) load a "global sieve script" before load the user sieve file? I want to create some rules for every one, like: "if header contais: IS SPAM, move to SPAM BOX"... I made this today with a couple of "sed + awk" and a wraper for managesieve-login... but, this is definily not the best way to do this... This is possible to do? (Even with change in the code) Regards. -- "Não deixe a faculdade atrapalhar seus estudos." http://allan.cassaro.googlepages.com

[Dovecot] Namespaces and shared folders
by bbell2000 28 Nov '08

28 Nov '08

I had a working dovecot install before I tried to implement shared folders using namespaces. I added the following to /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: namespace private { separator = prefix = inbox = yes } namespace public { separator = / prefix = location = maildir:/home/public/shared/Maildir } </pre> I created my shared folder using the maildirmake command that came with qmail: maildirmake -S /home/public/shared/Maildir maildirmake -s write -f online /home/public/shared/Maildir chown -R dovecot:shared /home/public/shared find /home/public/shared -type d -exec chmod 0777 {} \; find /home/public/shared -type f -exec chmod 0666 {} \; At this point, the online folder shows up as a subscribable folder in Thunderbird. I can subscribe to online and I can still access my Inbox. But I can't get to any of the folders in my Inbox (Trash, Drafts, etc.). I can access these folders if I comment out the namespaces and revert to the default behavior. There are no clues in mail.err, mail.info or mail.warn -- the only messages are the ones written when my client establishes a successful IMAP connection. What did I do wrong? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Namespaces-and-shared-folders-tp20727713p20727713.html Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] UIDL question
by Wouter van der Schagt 28 Nov '08

28 Nov '08

Hi all, I'm migrating a Postfix + Dovecot 1.0 server with mboxes to Qmail + Dovecot 1.4 with Maildirs and encounter the following the problem. Using perfect-maildir.pl from: http://perfectmaildir.home-dn.net/ i can relatively succesfully convert the mbox to a Maildir. The problem, however is that clients with "leave mail on server" set to on retrieve all email a 2nd time. I understand this must be because the email client "sees" a different UIDL and downloads the message again. Looking at the 1.0 configuration, i do not see a "pop3_uidl_format" setting. So was wondering how the UIDL is generated. Is anybody aware of a conversion script that properly maintains the UIDL? Or am I misisng something else here? Sincerely, - Wouter van der Schagt

[Dovecot] Does either version 1.2 or 1.4 support UIDPLUS?

28 Nov '08

My ISP currently runs version 1.2 and I'm looking to make use of UIDPLUS because I want to append and then move the message I've just appended to another folder so then I need the UID in order to address the new message. My ISP says they have plans to upgrade to version 1.4 soon. Do either of these versions support UIDPLUS? ie. give me the new UID as the response to an append?

Hi, I try to get expire working, with the BDB backend and mbox mailboxes.

I searched for hints but could not find a related discussion or problem. Here are the relavant config parts: dict { expire = db:/var/lib/dovecot/expire.db } plugin { # expire plugin expire_dict = proxy::expire expire = backup 7 spam 30 # If you have a non-default path to auth-master, set also: auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master } Any ideas? Has anybody got this working ? The file /var/lib/dovecot/expire.db doas not exit even though I restarted DC quite a while ago. Regards, Jakob

In my case, the cause was a large spam message (above the configured MaxMessageSize parameter for DSPAM) that was skipped during tests and thus no signature was added. Might this be true in your case? As a general suggestion for Johannes: maybe it is better to ignore this error silently, just move the message and don't call DSPAM? > I checked that the given location for the dspam executable is correct, > that the user executing it (dovecot?) is actually able to execute dspam > and that dspam trusts this user.

[Dovecot] Can I import RFC822 messages into Dovecot from file system
by bbell2000 27 Nov '08

27 Nov '08

I'm returning to qmail and dovecot after having suffered a complete failure with a different mail system and I'm now trying to figure out the easiest way to recover our messages from the failed system. The messages are stored as RFC822 in individual files and I can easily identify which message belongs to whom. I have qmail and dovecot configured to use Maildir format. I know I can probably write a script that resends the messages... but in addition to adding another layer of transport headers I really don't want, it's going to be way slow unless I disable my current content filters. I'm new to dovecot and what's got me hung up are the indexes that dovecot maintains in each user's directory. Otherwise, I'd probably try copying the messages into Maildir/cur just to see if it worked. I could sure use some ideas about an efficient, reliable means of getting our old messages back. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Can-I-import-RFC822-messages-into-Dovecot-from-file-s… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Antispam plugin + script sieve
by Allan Cassaro 27 Nov '08

27 Nov '08

Hi guys, I will start a little script that receive via antispam plugin an email, extract the "from" and "return-path" and create alter the sieve script of the user that send the e-mail. Well, I don't speak english very well (I speak like Borat!!!), but with some examples is better to understand: 1) Some user move an "undesirable" mail to "Automatic Block" folder 2) The antispam plugin call my script 3) The script parse the e-mail and extract the from and return-path mail 4) A rule is added to ~/.dovecot.sieve to dicard messages that came from that e-mail 5) If the user remove the mail from "Automatic Block" folder, the script remove this rule So, my question is: anyone is working on something similar with this? (I don't want to reinvent the wheel) Regards. -- "Não deixe a faculdade atrapalhar seus estudos." http://allan.cassaro.googlepages.com

[Dovecot] deliver segv on sieve redirect
by Andy Howell 27 Nov '08

27 Nov '08

Hello, I've been trying out the bleeding edge, 1.2.alpha4. I'm having a problem with deliver and dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.1. I get a segv on this sieve script: require ["fileinto", "reject", "vacation", "envelope", "regex"]; if header :contains "subject" ["urgent"] { redirect "someone(a)somewhere.net"; fileinto "test"; } Seems its happening on the "redirect". If I put the fileinto before the redirect, the fileinto works. I tried putting extra debug statements in plugins/lda-sieve/lda-sieve-plugin.c right after the sieve_execute in lda_sieve_run, but it never prints anything. I'm guessing thats the right place. Its quite possible there is something amiss in my setup. My logs show: Nov 26 02:51:12 marvin dovecot: deliver(andy(a)x.y.org): sieve: using sieve path: /var/mail/vhosts/x.y.org/andy/.dovecot.sieve Nov 26 02:51:12 marvin dovecot: deliver(andy(a)x.y.org): sieve: opening script /var/mail/vhosts/x.y.org/andy/.dovecot.sieve Nov 26 02:51:12 marvin dovecot: deliver(andy(a)x.y.org): sieve: executing compiled script /var/mail/vhosts/x.y.org/andy/.dovecot.sieve Nov 26 02:51:12 marvin postfix/pipe[17027]: 0CA895CB3A: to=<andy(a)x.y.org>, relay=dovecot, delay=0.41, delays=0.33/0.01/0/0.07, dsn=5.3.0, status=bounced (Command died with signal 11: "/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver") Thanks, Andy

[Dovecot] Released Sieve v0.1.2 (important bug fixed)
by Stephan Bosch 26 Nov '08

26 Nov '08

Hello Dovecot users, Today, Andy Howell tripped an important bug in the Sieve interpreter that makes it crash when redirect is executed. That is why I quickly release yet another new version to provide a fix for this bug. I really should prevent this from happening again in the future by extending the test suite to test the execution of actions. Changelog v0.1.2: - Fixed important bug in the redirect action (and probably other actions like reject and vacation that only send messages). This was a bug in the handling of context information during the execution of actions. It caused the sieve interpreter to crash with a segfault when redirect was executed. The release is available here: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.2.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.2.tar.gz.sig Refer to the initial release mail for more information: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot-news/2008-October/000087.html Regards, -- Stephan Bosch stephan(a)rename-it.nl IRC: Freenode, #dovecot, S[r]us

Only enabling it without using it (with addflag) is enough to stop sieve from working. All my emails will be delivered in my inbox despite the rules I use. If I remove imapflags, everything is working fine. And I don't see anything in my logs explaining the problem.

[Dovecot] Released Sieve v0.1.1 and ManageSieve v0.11.2 for Dovecot v1.2.alpha4
by Stephan Bosch 25 Nov '08

25 Nov '08

Hello Dovecot users, Since the first release of the new Sieve implementation, not that many bugs were reported. This is probably due to the fact that it is not tried yet by that many people. In the mean time, I did find and fix some more bugs myself, I adapted to changes in Dovecot, wrote some more documentation and started work on the enotify extension. Both Sieve and ManageSieve were changed to match API changes in Dovecot and therefore older versions will not compile against the new Dovecot release. Likewise, these new Sieve and ManageSieve releases will not compile for older Dovecot versions. Changelog Sieve v0.1.1: * Re-enabled support for compiling against dovecot headers. Much like cmusieve, command line tools like sievec and sieved are not compiled in this case. * Started implementation of enotify extension. Not anywhere near finished though. * Adapted to changes in Dovecot on various occasions, making this release dependent on Dovecot >= v1.2.alpa4. + Improved logging of errors at specific occasions and added debug messages to find script execution problems quicker. + Removed code duplication between command line tools and the test suite. Also restructured the sources of the tools. + Added UTF-8 to UTF-7 folder name conversion for compatibility with IMAP. + Created man pages for the command line tools. These are automatically installed upon 'make install' + Incorporated Valgrind support into the test suite and fixed a few memory leaks in the process. - Fixed compile error surfacing for gcc3.4. Forgot mask argument for the open() system call when the O_CREAT flag is specified. Bug found by Sergey Ivanov. - Fixed bug in the sievec tool. -d output was always written to stdout. - Fixed important bug in the imap4flags extension. When no :flags argument is specified, the previous version would always use the final value of the internal variable to set the flags. This means that modifications to the internal variable also affected the bare fileinto/keep actions executed earlier. This does not comply to the RFC. - Fixed bug in the include extension's import/export commands. Duplicate import/exports caused problems. - Fixed bug in the handling of non-existent scripts. Errors were sometimes ignored. - Dovecot omitted unfolding multi-line headers. This was added to the cmusieve plugin after the code was incorporated into the new implementation. This is now implicitly fixed by concurrent change in Dovecot. Changelog ManageSieve v0.11.2: * Adapted to changes in Dovecot, making this release dependent on Dovecot >= v1.2.alpa4 The following files are released: Sieve: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.1.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-sieve-0.1.1.tar.gz.sig ManageSieve package: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.2.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2-managesieve-0.11.2.tar.gz.s… ManageSieve patch: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.alpha4-managesieve-0.11.2.d… http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.2/dovecot-1.2.alpha4-managesieve-0.11.2.d… The full story of the new Sieve implementation is available in my previous posting: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot-news/2008-October/000087.html I still need to update the wiki with pointers to the new Sieve implementation. I hope to have some time and motivation to do so in the next few days. Have fun testing the new releases and don't hesitate to notify me when there are problems.

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/dovecot-1.1.7.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/dovecot-1.1.7.tar.gz.sig I should have released this earlier since v1.1.6 had that annoying startup problem, but surprisingly few people complained about it so I kind of forgot about it then. BTW. v1.2 progresses nicely. Now that shared mailboxes are finally fully supported, there aren't any widely used IMAP features missing from Dovecot. v1.2.beta1 shouldn't be in too distant future anymore. * IMAP QUOTA extension now returns "MESSAGE" quota, not "MESSAGES". This makes Dovecot now RFC 2087 compliant. Hopefully this change doesn't break anyone's Dovecot-specific quota checking code.. + Added !include and !include_try directives to config file reader. Note that !include doesn't currently work with deliver. The main point here is that ssl_key_password can be placed to a different file with !include_try that deliver can just ignore. + More error/debug message logging improvements. - v1.1.6 gave "userdb didn't return a home directory" error at startup - Some config file parsers (deliver, passwd-file, acl, trash) ignored the file's last line if it didn't end with LF. - fts: SEARCH SUBJECT didn't search messages that weren't already in fts index. - fts-solr: Don't assert-crash if we couldn't connect to Solr. - IMAP: Mailbox deletion gave an error, but still worked, if mails' control directory wasn't the same as index directory. - Several fixes to rarely used mailbox list layout configurations.
