[Dovecot] mountpoint_get broke the quota plugin
by Bill Boebel 23 May '06

23 May '06

Looks like the new mountpoint_get code broke the quota plugin. I am getting this error when trying to start dovecot, using last night's CVS on Red Hat ES3: # service dovecot start Starting Dovecot Imap: Edlopen(/usr/lib/dovecot/imap/lib01_quota_plugin.so) failed: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap/lib01_quota_plugin.so: undefined symbol: mountpoint_get Error: imap dump-capability process returned 22784 [FAILED] Bill

[Dovecot] Fatal: sigaction(SIGRTMIN) failed: Invalid argument

Hello, I just download dovecot 1.0b8 and compiled and installed from sources. After setting some default configurations, here's what I get: [root@ba root]# dovecot [root@ba root]# Fatal: sigaction(SIGRTMIN) failed: Invalid argument Here`s my configuration: # Base directory where to store runtime data. base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ # Protocols we want to be serving: # imap imaps pop3 pop3s protocols = imap protocol imap { listen = *:10143 # ssl_listen = *:10943 # .. } # Disable SSL/TLS support. ssl_disable = yes # Use this logfile instead of syslog(). /dev/stderr can be used if you want to # use stderr for logging (ONLY /dev/stderr - otherwise it is closed). log_path = /dev/stderr # For informational messages, use this logfile instead of the default info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-info.log # everything in this directory is deleted when Dovecot is started. login_dir = /var/run/dovecot/login # default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/%1u/%u/Maildir default_mail_env = mbox:/home/webmail/:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u auth default { # Space separated list of wanted authentication mechanisms: # plain login digest-md5 cram-md5 ntlm rpa apop anonymous gssapi mechanisms = plain # /etc/passwd or similar, using getpwnam() # In many systems nowadays this uses Name Service Switch, which is # configured in /etc/nsswitch.conf. userdb passwd { } user = root } This is really weird.

[Dovecot] two concurrent dovecots
by Alexey Koptsevich 20 May '06

20 May '06

Hello, Is it safe to have two concurrent dovecot processes to access the same maildir? I have a stock RHEL version (0.99.11) used by users, but I also want to test 1.0-beta together wth postfix for SASL. Is it safe to access the same maildir concurrently with both dovecots (say, the old one via webmail and the new one via remote client)? Thanks, Alex

[Dovecot] Dovecot/LDAP problem
by Burton Simmons 19 May '06

19 May '06

Dear Dovecot mailing list people - What I'm trying to do is use Postfix (with virtual users) and a POP3 server (we don't want IMAP - don't ask) to work against our new Active Directory servers that will be coming soon. Before we roll anything out we're testing it in the lab. Here's what we've got: x86 server running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Postfix 2.0.16 Dovecot-1.0 Beta7 Windows 2003 server running Active Directory Windows XP client running Outlook Eventually, we'd like the clients to be joined to the AD domain and that's where we'll store ALL the user information. The email will come in on our postfix server (which uses virtual users) and the clients will check it passing their email username and domain password. The catch is that USERS CAN BE ANYWHERE IN THE DIRECTORY. (I apologize for the caps, I wanted to make sure that phrase wasn't glossed over.) So, for instance: > DC=local | >DC=domain | >OU=group1 | | | > CN=user1 | > CN=user2 | >OU=group2 | | | > CN=user3 | > CN=user4 | >OU=group3 | >CN=user5 The path to user1 is therefore CN=user1,OU=group1,DC=domain,DC=local (at least in the AD world.) The path to user3 is CN=user3,OU=group2,DC=domain,DC=local. So to search for users I would think (because this is how Postfix does it) that I could have the search base as DC=domain,DC=local and then have scope = subtree. IT DOESN'T WORK. (Again, caps used for emphasis only.) Here's the meat of the dovecot-ldap.conf file I'm using: hosts = 192.168.x.x dn = cn=Administrator,cn=Users,DC=domain,DC=local dnpass = xxxxx auth_bind = yes ldap_version = 3 base = DC=domain,DC=local scope = subtree user_attrs = sAMAccountName,mail,,,, user_filter = (&(objectClass=organizationalPerson)(sAMAccountName=%u)) pass_filter = (&(objectClass=organizationalPerson)(sAMAccountName=%u)) user_global_uid = 44 user_global_gid = 44 --- Interestingly, if I simply point the base to the actual user's container, it works just fine. The idea works from Postfix, but from dovecot it doesn't actually seem to search the tree. --- Here's some of the output from the log files. dovecot: May 17 15:35:52 Info: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=POP3 lip= 192.168.0.199 rip=192.168.0.195 resp=AGp1c2VyAHBhc3N3b3Jk dovecot: May 17 15:35:52 Info: auth(default): ldap(user1, 192.168.0.195): bind search: base=DC=LAB,DC=local filter=(&(objectClass=organizationalPerson)(sAMAccountName=user1)) dovecot: May 17 15:36:52 Info: pop3-login: Disconnected: Inactivity: method=PLAIN, rip= 192.168.90.195, lip=192.168.90.199 dovecot: May 17 15:37:52 Info: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=POP3 lip=192.168.0.199 rip=192.168.0.195 resp=AGp1c2VyAHBhc3N3b3Jk dovecot: May 17 15:37:52 Info: auth(default): ldap(user1,192.168.0.195): bind search: base=DC=domain,DC=local filter=(&(objectClass=organizationalPerson)(sAMAccountName=user1)) dovecot: May 17 15:37:54 Info: auth(default): client out: OK 1 user=user1 dovecot: May 17 15:37:54 Info: auth(default): client out: OK 1 user=user1 dovecot: May 17 15:37:54 Info: auth(default): master in: REQUEST 1 25233 1 dovecot: May 17 15:37:54 Info: auth(default): ldap(user1,192.168.0.195): base=DC=LAB,DC=local scope=subtree filter=(&(objectClass=organizationalPerson)(sAMAccountName=user1)) fields=sAMAccountName,mail,,,, dovecot: May 17 15:38:52 Info: pop3-login: Disconnected: Inactivity: user=<user1>, method=PLAIN, rip=192.168.0.195, lip=192.168.0.199 Can anybody offer any insight?

[Dovecot] configure change for 1.0.beta8
by Tomi Vainio 19 May '06

19 May '06

Hi, I'm trying to compile dovecot under Solaris 10 with native Mysql support. Couple changes are needed before configure can detect and compile mysql support. Native Solaris Mysql is installed under /usr/sfw directory. Configure can't find libraries and when these are found -R runtime path is needed for linking. Also if library name is given before library path it can't find it. These changes are needed for configure script line 29533 for i in /usr /usr/local /usr/local/mysql /usr/sfw; do line 29548 LIBS="$LIBS -L$MYSQL_LIBDIR -R$MYSQL_LIBDIR" line 29559 LIBS="$LIBS -lmysqlclient" line 29770 SQL_LIBS="$SQL_LIBS -L$MYSQL_LIBDIR -R$MYSQL_LIBDIR" line 29780 LIBS="$LIBS -lmysqlclient" Tomppa

[Dovecot] Outlook Express / POP Problem?
by Marc Perkel 19 May '06

19 May '06

I have a new user who is using Outlook Express with POP and seems to be having a problem downloading messages with attachments. Watching the logs it starts to download and then disconnects. When I use squirrelmail which is IMAP it all looks good so it's not a corrupt mailbox. I'm running Beta8 and using MBOX files. The problem seems to be related to POP and/or Outlook. Has anyone run into this before?

I don't think this is the correct fix below, but it did the trick in our environment when maildir_copy_with_hardlinks=yes. I think the real problem is that quota_default_alloc() is getting called twice.

[Dovecot] maildir-tags
by Marten Lehmann 18 May '06

Hello, I configured my MTA to store messages in maildirs with a tag "S=$message_size", so quota calculations can be done without stat()ing the message file. However, I have a lot old messages, than haven't been stored with this tag. Is it possible to configure dovecot so that it will rename each file adding this messagesize-tag if it is not found in a file already?

[Dovecot] Authentication Daemons
by Scott Penrose 16 May '06

16 May '06

Hi ho. My name is Scott Penrose - and I am experimenting with Dovecot as an IMAP replacement in our company. I have spent some time trying to write a plugin (sort of) for authentication and come to the conclusion that our instance is a little strange. So I though I would try plan B which is to write my own authentication module. This seems to have worked fairly well to start with but I have had some problems. For example, when connecting with a simple socket client (I have a socket client equiv of telnet) I see the VERSION, MECH ... DONE from the login/default socket, but nothing from the master socket. Both should be returning VERSION. Any ideas on that one? Thanks Scott

[Dovecot] Dovecot + Sendmail + virtusertable
by Chris Tata 16 May '06

16 May '06

Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to have dovecot authenticate using sendmail's virtusertable to map virtual users to system users. My goal is to allow virtual users (bob(a)domain.com) to authenticate via pop or imap using the full user@domain scheme. I tried enabling 'vpopmail' as passdb and userdb in the default namespace but I get this error: dovecot: May 15 23:05:21 Error: auth(default): Unknown passdb type 'vpopmail' Please advise. Thanks, Chris

[Dovecot] Missing mails after folder renaming
by Bob & Sabine von Knobloch 15 May '06

15 May '06

Dear List, I seem to have created myself a problem to which I can't find an answer. I am using Dovecot (0.99.13-4.FC2 on Fedora Core 2) with Mozilla Thunderbird on Windows XP and Linux as IMAP client software. I renamed a folder to a name that included spaces (it fitted the pupose better), then later realised that I would have to change my procmail rules to suit. As I wasn't sure what procmail would do with such folder names I renamed the folder back to it's original short name (all this changing was done in Thunderbird). The result is that all subfolders under the renamed folder exist in both forms: eg "Computer.SubjectA" and "Computer Projects.SubjectA", but the second versions are not seen by Thunderbird although they contain all my old mails (new mails are correctly delivered to the short name folders). I have tried to move the mails in these folders back to the short name folders but the indexing system (I assume) does not 'see' these maildir files. How can I fool the system into seeing all the old mails? Of course, I would like to know why the second renaming didn't work but don't have enough information to know if it's Thunderbird or Dovecot that isn't working correctly. As a second question, my Windows clients run in an NT domain (Samba) with roaming user profiles. The pathnames for some users become quite long and Windows throws a 'path too long' error when saving/loading the user profile from the DC. Is there a way of limiting the depth of folder nesting under Dovecot to avoid this problem? I have tried to search for answers but haven't found any yet. If there is already some information, I would be glad of a pointer to it. I am very pleased with the performance of Dovecot in all respects, thanks for the program. Bob von Knobloch.

[Dovecot] Anyone using Dovecot LDA on OS X?

I'm curious if anyone can get the LDA running on OS X, and what their experiences have been... We are still having index corruption issues that result in many temp files being created and client-side timeouts using a straight Postfix local delivery under 1.0beta7. The LDA does not come packaged with the Darwinports version of Dovecot, so any tips on compiling it would be most appreciated... Thanks, -deano

[Dovecot] dovecot ldap auth bind and different directories
by Andrew Bates 15 May '06

15 May '06

I have recently begun playing with Dovecot (1.0.beta8) and have run into an interesting scenario. The way my email system is set up is that users of different domains have completely different base dn's. For instance, if a user is part of test.com the bind dn would be uid=user,ou=People,dc=test,dc=com. The bind dn for user(a)domain.com would be uid=user,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=com. I could not seem to figure out a way to have the binddn adjusted based on a user's @domain so I modified auth-request.c and var-expand.c to include a new variable expansion concept. In the configuration I'm now able to include the following: auth_bind_userdn = uid=%n,ou=People,dc=%c2,dc=%c1 and %c1 will be expanded to the tld, %c2 will be expanded to the next level domain (domain or test in the above example). This will work up to 9 levels of subdomain (1-9). This is very similar in how postfix expands variables with ldap. I'm a bit rusty with my C, so I'd love some feedback on the patch. If this idea isn't included in the main code, that's fine, but I thought I'd contribute my experiences! Thanks for a great product everyone!

[Dovecot] re: ssl-build-param
by Jackie Hunt 15 May '06

Hi all, I posted a message last week about a problem with ssl-build-param, shown below. I may have a lead on this, and was hoping someone can confirm my theory. On AIX, a malloc of 0 bytes returns NULL, which is different than on Solaris and HP-UX (and probably Linux?) I'm guessing the NULL pointer returned is causing the abort of the ssl-build-param, since that was an unexpected result. Looking briefly at the code in ssl-init-openssl.c that seems reasonable. Can anyone please confirm this? And if so, any suggestions on the best way to proceed?

[Dovecot] Downloading Previous Versions??
by Jackie Hunt 15 May '06

15 May '06

Hi all, How do I get to previous versions of the dovecot source code? I wanted to download dovecot-1.0.beta7, but can't find it via the web, only the latest version (beta8). It's probably obvious how to do this...but I'm not seeing it. Thanks much!
