[Dovecot] AD Kerberos and Dovecot
by Christian Felsing 22 Jan '14

22 Jan '14

Hello, I got stucked on Kerberos auth with Dovecot: Jan 22 17:48:36 test dovecot: auth: Error: LDAP: binding failed (dn cn=AUTH\_ldap): Local error, SASL(-1): generic failure: GSSAPI Error: Unspecified GSS failure. Minor code may provide more information (Credentials cache file '/tmp/krb5cc_1003' not found) kinit and and ldapsearch with gssapi auth are working. Are there instructions how to set up Kerberos auth with Dovecot and Active Directory? How does Dovecot handle Kerberos tickets? best regards Christian

[Dovecot] master password
by Marc Perkel 21 Jan '14

21 Jan '14

This is probably easy but how would a set a secret static master password so that if I typed it in for any login it would be happy? I can't use the * separator method in this case because it screws up squirrelmail.

[Dovecot] Failure in doveconf
by Andrew Ray 21 Jan '14

21 Jan '14

I ran into a problem while configuring dovecot. Quickly reading the paragraph below, I saw "yes" as one of the options, and put that into the config, as below: # In case of password mismatches, log the attempted password. Valid values are # no, plain and sha1. sha1 can be useful for detecting brute force password # attempts vs. user simply trying the same password over and over again. # You can also truncate the value to n chars by appending ":n" (e.g. sha1:6). auth_verbose_passwords = yes The result from doveconf -n was: doveconf: Error: x�η doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: 0pη (where the error message was always a changing, apparently random set of characters.) So I managed, by going back through the config file and commenting out options, to find this was the problem and then finally read what are the acceptable values. Any other place that I have tried to give a non acceptable value I get a reasonable error message with line number and problem. Well, now I fixed my original problem, but something needs to be adjusted in the error handling code.

[Dovecot] forwarded message is broken in 2.2.10 with pigeonhole-0.4.2
by Burckhard Schmidt 21 Jan '14

21 Jan '14

Hi, forwarding a message with sieve like redirect:copy "me(a)other.domain"; was working without any problem until dovecot-2.1.17, dovecots lmtp and dovecot-2.1-pigeonhole-0.3.5. Using dovecot-2.2.10 , dovecots lmtp and dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.2 the structure of a forwarded message is broken. Content of a message is not displayed or an attachment (for instance pdf) can not be opened by (different) clients. Writing a html mail or plain one makes no different. I have compared two messages and the main different is a missing Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="...." to encapsulate the body of the forwarded message. Was it lost in sieve? Here parts of a "well" forwarded message: Return-Path: ... ...

[Dovecot] Dovecot doesn't seem to report all subfolders to Thunderbird
by dovecot＠voidptr.de 21 Jan '14

21 Jan '14

Hi, I've recently migrated my emails from a Yahoo account to my own mailserver on a VPS. Ever since then, Thunderbird seems to have issues with the mailbox's directory structure: When I start Thunderbird, it immediately deletes the local copies of all 3rd-level folders (i.e. subfolders of a subfolder of a folder in the mailbox root). Since that didn't happen with the Yahoo account, I assume it's some kind of error or misconfiguration of Dovecot. Here's an example of the mailbox structure: voidptr.de '-> University '-> IEEE '-> Conference "University" and "IEEE" work without problems, but "Conference" gets deleted locally every time I start Thunderbird. When I collapse and re-expand "University" in the folder panel, all subfolders (including "Conference") reappear, but Thunderbird has to re-download the contents of "Conference", since it deleted the local copies earlier. It looks as if Dovecot only reported the topmost two folder levels when Thunderbird requests a folder list... Is there any way I can change that behavior? Nils $ doveconf -n # 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-042stab078.22 x86_64 Debian 7.3 auth_verbose = yes mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:LAYOUT=fs namespace { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { auto = subscribe special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { auto = subscribe special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { auto = subscribe special_use = \Trash } prefix = subscriptions = yes } passdb { args = scheme=SHA512-CRYPT username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } protocols = " imap" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0666 } } service imap-login { inet_listener imaps { port = 0 } } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/own/voidptr.de.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/certs/own/voidptr.de.key userdb { args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/users default_fields = home=/home/%n driver = passwd-file }

[Dovecot] A variable for the unix user or home path would be useful in some cases
by interfaSys sàrl 20 Jan '14

20 Jan '14

Hello, In our hosting environment, we let users share mailboxes across all their domains and think it's best if the shared mailbox listing (in a file) stays in their unix home path. That would be: /home/USER/imap/shared-mailboxes.db Unfortunately, it seems there is no way to generate that path using a variable. Something like this would be convenient: acl_shared_dict = file:%v/imap/shared-mailboxes.db Instead, we have to use something like this: acl_shared_dict = file:~/../../../shared-mailboxes.db which only works for virtual users. Did somebody solve this another way? Could we have the unix user or home path as a variable? Or could we have a modifier giving us the path or the unix user based on the unix UID? Cheers, Olivier

Re: [Dovecot] imap abort after upgrade from 2.2.4 to 2.2.7
by morrison 20 Jan '14

20 Jan '14

When I did upgrade, 2.2.7 was the latest release. When I ran into the problem, I checked back and found 2.2.8 and 2.2.9 were released shortly one after another. It seemed these releases were sort of buggy. I would like to know if what I described in my previous email was an known issue and was addressed before upgrade to 2.2.10. We are using dovecot as our internal mail service. So stable is most important to us. Regards,

[Dovecot] auth_default_realm, pam_krb5, gssapi
by Sergey Urushkin 20 Jan '14

20 Jan '14

Hi, Just writing here my note about auth_default_realm, pam_krb5 and gssapi. It seems that 'pam' passdb and 'gssapi' auth_mechanism doesn't honor 'auth_default_realm' setting, at least in several setups I deal with. Here is a part of the config: passdb { args = max_requests=100 cache_key=%u%r dovecot driver = pam } auth_default_realm = REALM.COM auth_mechanisms = plain login apop gssapi auth_username_format = %Uu The problem is that pam_krb5 strips default realm from username (by default), even if auth_default_realm is specified and even if user logs in as 'user1(a)realm.com' (with domain part). A part of auth.log: mail auth: pam_krb5(dovecot:auth): user USER1 authenticated as USER1(a)REALM.COM The same for GSSAPI auth, if specified authorization name doesn't contain domain part. A part of mail.log: mail dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<USER1>, method=GSSAPI, rip=172.16.0.1, lip=192.168.1.1, mpid=5828, TLS, session=<bpzvRmDwPACsFwCX> For several reasons I do need username inside dovecot to contain domain part. So, I found a solution to this problem - modifying /etc/krb5.conf this way: [libdefaults] default_realm = REALM.COM [realms] REALM.COM = { auth_to_local = RULE:[1:$1@$0] } This will add realm part to the local username despite using default realm. Maybe it's better to put this example to the wiki? Tested with ubuntu 12.04 and dovecot 2.2.10, mit kerberos 1.10, amd64. Taking the opportunity, I'd like to ask, is there a way to make usernames case insensitive while using GSSAPI. The case: klist shows: Principal: user1(a)REALM.COM username in thunderbird 'uSer1(a)REALM.COM'. Dovecot gives me this message (I use auth_username_format=%Uu for pam_krb5 to be able to login with lowercase realm): dovecot: auth: gssapi(USER1(a)REALM.COM,172.16.0.1,<IIgwMGbw3ACsFgA4>): User not authorized to log in as USER1(a)REALM.COM As I know kerberos usernames are case insensitive (user part), at least kinit and windows against AD works that way. Seems that k5credentials passdb extra field will not help here too. Does anyone have an idea? Thanks. -- Best regards, Sergey Urushkin

[Dovecot] Shared Folters with LDA/Sieve

19 Jan '14

Hello, i'm searching for a way to use Shared mailboxes with Sieve Filtering. I need global email addresses like: info(a)foo.tld contact(a)foo.tld help(a)foo.tld Every address with own Sieve-rules for filtering and sorting of incoming mails. Now every user needs access to this folders, but how? How should i create the "global" addresses? I already found http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Public , but that's just a public namespace. Is there any FAQ available for this? Thank you very much Dieter

[Dovecot] Sizing MTA servers
by Murray Trainer 18 Jan '14

18 Jan '14

Hi All, This is probably a bit off-topic but does anyone have any idea about sizing MTA servers. We have about 200,000 emails/hr incoming and outgoing. I am intending using Exim and Spamassassin on each MTA. How many servers using recent hardware would I need to cope with this mail throughput? What is more important on the servers, CPU or RAM? Should I have mail going both directions on each server or dedicate a pair each for incoming and outgoing mail> Thanks for any feedback. Murray

[Dovecot] doveconf base_dir
by Andreas Schulze 18 Jan '14

18 Jan '14

Hello, today I run the command "doveadm auth cache flush" for the first time. # doveadm auth cache flush doveadm(root): Error: userdb lookup: connect(/var/run/dovecotauth-master) failed: No such file or directory 0 cache entries flushed # base_dir was the only item contain 'run' and it did not end with a / So I tried to set base_dir to /var/run/dovecot/ and could now rerun "doveadm auth cache flush" without problems. I compile dovecot from source and found --with-rundir=/var/run/dovecot as an option to configure. I changed to /var/run/dovecot/, recompile and removed the base_dir setting in dovecot.conf again. Now "doveadm auth cache flush" work out of the box. doveconf -d base_dir is var/run/dovecot/. Finaly I compiled dovecot with --localstatedir=/var and removed --with-rundir from configure. The resulting package had again base_dir = /var/run/dovecot so "doveadm auth cache flush" don't work. looks like somewhere the missing / should be added in case base_dir has no trailing / without special configuration.

[Dovecot] imap abort after upgrade from 2.2.4 to 2.2.7

Hi, I used to use dovecot 2.2.4. I saw lots of warnings saying 'Extension header update points outside header size'. I upgraded to dovecot 2.2.7, based on the discussion in mail list. Now, I see lots of imap aborts around: src/lib-index/mail-index-transaction-export.c:203: i_assert(u32.offset + u32.size <= ext_hdr_size); I also noticed, in some mailbox, imap process kept abort until all index files in the mailbox were manually deleted. Did someone run into the same problem and any solution to this? Thanks,

[Dovecot] Changing user specific configs one at a time using userdb text file to override defaults...
by Charles Marcus 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

Hi all, Ok, I'm now interested in testing converting users one at a time to mdbox+SIS, but want to make sure I understand how to do this. It appears the best way - for smaller installations at least - is to just use a simple text file userdb to override the defaults, then once all of the users have been converted, change the defaults and remove the userdb txt file overrides. So, would love to hear details from others who have done something like this. Thx! -- Best regards, Charles

[Dovecot] Getting more out of the %w variable.
by Julian PG 17 Jan '14

17 Jan '14

Hello Dovecot community, I have a backend database application that handles all system wide user authentication (from web to mail and more). Passwords are not stored in plain text. So I would like to support more than PLAIN. Perhaps at least CRAM-MD5 or DIGEST-MD5 for example. Even though connections over TLS are encouraged (and even enforced). Some MUA and users still think its a better idea than PLAIN (even sent over an encrypted session). I have a vague memory of getting some warnings with thunderbird in regards to the use of PLAIN. Of course the %w variable would have to include the challenge as well as the response. Or perhaps even a seperate variable for the challenge? Or course at the moment the %w variable is an empty string for anything other than PLAIN. This would make some users and MUAs happy (even though pointless over TLS - I agree). Your thoughts would be appreciated. Regards, Julian. -- Not time for sigs!

[Dovecot] Received: header showing 127.0.0.1 after switch to dovecot LDA?
by Charles Marcus 16 Jan '14

16 Jan '14

Hi all, I'm guessing this is correct behavior, but wanted to make sure... I noticed that for locally delivered messages (between 2 local users inside our domain, so they never leave the server), the first Received: header line content changed after I switched to the dovecot LDA. Before, using postfix/virtual for delivery, the header looked like this: Received: from [192.168.1.25] (client.example.com [192.168.1.25]) by smtp.example.com (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id 67E33A20542; Wed, 6 Jun 2012 10:55:55 -0400 (EDT) But now it looks like this: Received: from [127.0.0.1] (client.example.com.com [192.168.1.14]) by smtp.example.com (Postfix) with ESMTPSA id 4EEF7802AF325 for <me(a)example.com>; Wed, 15 Jan 2014 18:29:17 -0500 (EST) so, 2 questions... 1. Why does it show 127.0.0.1 instead of the client IP, and 2. Why did postfix/virtual include the "for <me(a)example.com>;" but the dovecot LDA doesn't? Thanks, -- Best regards, Charles

In mail-filter.sh I append some chars and in mail-filter-out I filter these chars out (this is just a test) cat > /tmp/dovecot-in.txt echo "XXX" >> /tmp/dovecot-in.txt cat /tmp/dovecot-in.txt mail-filter-out: cat > /tmp/dovecot-out.txt sed -i /XXX/d /tmp/dovecot-out.txt cat /tmp/dovecot-out.txt Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Kind regards, Martijn Brinkers

It appears your userdb does not specify GID for a user. Either define it, or ... In share/doc/dovecot/example-config/conf.d/10-mail.conf: # System user and group used to access mails.

Hello, We’re using a custom program to manage quotas talking to dovecot via the dovecot dict proxy protocol over a unix socket: plugin { quota = dict:User quota::proxy:/var/run/auth_proxy_dovecot/quotasocket:quota } Dovecot gets slammed with quota requests periodically, seemingly because Thunderbird thought it would be a good idea to hardcode having a quota check at 45 seconds past the minute, and thus every Thunderbird client makes several GETQUOTAROOT requests simultaneously. This causes dovecot to make many client connections to the quota proxy, and many of them fail with EAGAIN. In the log we see: Jan 15 16:52:46 imap25 dovecot: imap(rplatel(a)tucows.com): Error: net_connect_unix(/var/run/auth_proxy_dovecot/quotasocket) failed: Resource temporarily unavailable And the client gets: * QUOTAROOT Spam "User quota"[0d][0a] * QUOTA "User quota" ()[0d][0a] * BAD Internal quota calculation error[0d][0a] 19 OK Getquotaroot completed.[0d][0a] Thunderbird transparently disconnects and reconnects at this point but obviously this is not ideal. Writing some toy programs, I found that even making a forked server with several processes doing nothing but accept()ing on the listening socket, with a high number for the listen queue, it’s easy to overwhelm it with simultaneous clients who then get EAGAIN. If the clients do indeed immediately try again, they are successful. (An INET listening socket does not seem to have this problem, incidentally) All of this is a long-winded way of saying that I believe in lib-dict/dict-client.c:client_dict_connect() the call to net_connect_unix should be a call to net_connect_unix_with_retries() with a small timeout. It would also be useful for us if an INET socket could be used.

[Dovecot] int/ext mailserver
by Mr.Pine 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

I 'm using potfix-dovcote as an internal mail server(local.myco.com) and wan to run another potfix-dovcote as an external mail server (myco.com) on Internet.75% of my users should only work internally(no external mail) but the rest of users (25%)should be able to send mail to external network! These users have the same username on myco.com. I use smtp_generic_maps to map int username of these users to ext. one. For eg. All email send by test(a)local.myco.com map to test(a)myco.com. So anyone got these mails can reply them. I know that getmail is the tools that can get mails from users external mailbox and put them into int. mailbox. 1. I have a root access to ext mail server. But do not know my ext user password!. How can I use getmail to move ext mail to internal one?! 2. What is your idea about syncing users password in internal/external mail server?! I think its needed for getmail! 3. How can I restrict my internal users to send mail only internally!? I appreciated any help!! TNX

[Dovecot] restored mails
by Wojciech Giel 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

Hello, I am running dovecot 2.1 on debian wheezy . We are using maildir format. one of our uses deleted content of INBOX folder during xmass. he wants these messages back. I had these mail on tape. I have restored them to his inbox/cur directory but dovecot is not indexing them. Email client shows empty inbox as well. tried manually run: doveadm index -u john -q INBOX no change. deleting indexes didn't help. How to restore these email? thanks Woj my config: # 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 7.3 auth_debug = yes auth_mechanisms = plain login cram-md5 auth_verbose = yes listen = * log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " login_greeting = IMAP Server is ready. mail_debug = yes mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=~/dovecot-control/indexes:CONTROL=~/dovecot-control:LAYOUT=fs mail_plugins = " quota trash" managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave passdb { driver = pam } passdb { args = scheme=cram-md5 /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } plugin { antispam_backend = pipe antispam_debug_target = syslog antispam_mail_sendmail = /usr/bin/sa-learn-pipe.sh antispam_pipe_program_notspam_arg = --ham antispam_pipe_program_spam_arg = --spam antispam_pipe_tmpdir = /tmp antispam_spam = Junk;Spam antispam_trash_pattern = Trash;Deleted * antispam_verbose_debug = 0 autocreate = INBOX autocreate2 = Sent autocreate3 = Trash autocreate4 = Drafts autocreate5 = Junk autosubscribe = INBOX autosubscribe2 = Sent autosubscribe3 = Trash autosubscribe4 = Drafts autosubscribe5 = Junk quota = maildir:User quota quota_warning = storage=95%% quota-warning 95 %u quota_warning2 = storage=80%% quota-warning 80 %u quota_warning3 = -storage=100%% quota-warning below %u sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_default = /var/spool/dovecot/default.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve sieve_global_dir = /var/spool/dovecot/ trash = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-trash.conf.ext } protocols = imap sieve service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-master { mode = 0666 } } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 2000 } } service quota-warning { executable = script /usr/bin/dovecot-quota-warning.sh user = postfix } ssl_ca = </etc/postfix/ssl/cacert.pem ssl_cert = </etc/postfix/ssl/servercrt.pem ssl_cipher_list = ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2:!EXP-ADH-DES-CBC-SHA:!EXP-EDH-RSA-DES-CBC-SHA:!EXP-DES-CBC-SHA:!EXP-RC2-CBC-MD5:!EXP-RC4-MD5:!EXP-ADH-RC4-MD5:!ADH-DES-CBC3-SHA:!ADH-RC4-MD5:!ADH-DES-CBC3-SHA:!ADH-AES128-SHA:!ADH-AES256-SHA:!ADH-RC4-MD5:!RC4 ssl_key = </etc/postfix/ssl/serverkey.pem userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } userdb { driver = passwd } protocol lda { deliver_log_format = msgid=%m: %$ info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log log_path = /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log mail_plugins = " quota trash autocreate sieve" postmaster_address = postmaster quota_full_tempfail = yes rejection_reason = Your message to <%t> was automatically rejected:%n%r } protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = tb-extra-mailbox-sep delay-newmail tb-lsub-flags mail_max_userip_connections = 10 mail_plugins = " quota trash imap_quota autocreate antispam" } 1379333576.M520387P21423.pine,S=5016,W=5183:2,S 1389710739.M139355P6177.pine,S=38933,W=39648:2,Sd 1379340386.M670300P24951.pine,S=2282,W=2328:2,S 1389710937.M15977P6316.pine,S=20426,W=20831:2,Sd 1379342173.M207466P25909.pine,S=2649,W=2700:2,S 1389715067.M350398P8795.pine,S=18288,W=18549:2,Sd 1379343332.M808399P26628.pine,S=3862,W=3952:2,S 1389715305.M250290P8929.pine,S=4264,W=4346:2,Sd 1379343742.M248785P27359.pine,S=4772,W=4891:2,RS 1389723554.M26883P13831.pine,S=47655,W=47979:2,d 1379343783.M47728P27388.pine,S=22571,W=23053:2,S root@pine:/home/john/Maildir/INBOX/cur#

[Dovecot] Why does dovecot require the {} password sheme even if there is a $ crypt scheme.
by da-dovecotlist-15＠abelonline.de 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

The wiki[1] says: If all the passwords are in same format, you can use default_pass_scheme to specify it. Otherwise each password needs to be prefixed with "{password-scheme}", for example "{plain}plaintext-password". Why doesn't dovecot recognize the crypt scheme identifier ($1$ for MD5-CRYPT, $6$ for SHA512-CRYPT etc.)? At the moment I have to have the following in my db for dovecot to work: {SHA512-CRYPT}$6$salt$passwordhash [1]http://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/SQL

[Dovecot] dsync mbox to maildir migration does not delete, deleted e-mails
by A M 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

Hello, I am planning to migrate all users from mbox to maildir. I am trying to do it with minimum downtime. (~100GB data) All users are currently using POP3. Dovecot version is 2.2.10 (latest). Command used is: dsync -u username mirror maildir:~/Maildir Process I plan is: (omitting steps related to sendmail / procmail) 1) keep dovecot running (with mail_location as mbox) 2) dsync for all users (this may take 3-4 hours or more) 3) (downtime starts) stop dovecot and sendmail (to stop new e-mails) 4) block pop3, imap ports on firewall (so users can not connect) 5) start dovecot (still with mbox) 6) dsync again to sync e-mails arrived between step 2 and 3 7) dsync again (just to make sure!) 8) (downtime ends) restart dovecot (with mail_location as maildir) Now, here is my problem. Lets say there is user joe, who has 50 NEW e-mails in mbox (INBOX). Step 2 perfectly syncs his 50 e-mails to 'new' folder of maildir. Now in the mean time, before step 3, he connected via POP3 and downloaded and deleted 50 e-mails. Now when we reach step 6 (re-sync), what I expected was dsync will detect that 50 e-mails are deleted and it will delete 50 e-mails from 'new' directory of maildir. But that is not happening. 50 e-mails are still there. I fear that these e-mails will be re-downloaded on his Outlook once I switch dovecot to maildir. This will happen for each and every user which will cause huge mess. So how to tell, dsync to delete non-existent e-mails which are no more there in mbox (INBOX)? Thanks in advance, Regards, A M

[Dovecot] Dovecot service not responding after about a week of uptime
by Matthieu 15 Jan '14

15 Jan '14

Hello, I am running a dovecot 2.1.13 server and lately it stops responding after about a week of uptime. Simply restarting the dovecot service solves the issue. I tried to look a bit in my maillog file but did not find anything obvious. During the time when the server is not responding I can still see imap-login entries from the connection attempt by my email client. Any help about how to diagnose the problem would be appreciated. Thanks, Matthieu

[Dovecot] Dovecot LMTP does not pass envelope recipient +detail to sieve
by Greg Rivers 14 Jan '14

14 Jan '14

I found this[1] thread that describes the same problem with dovecot-LDA, but the solution (add X-Original-To: header) has no effect with LMTP. My sendmail LMTP configuration: FEATURE(`local_lmtp',`[IPC]',`FILE /var/run/dovecot/lmtp') Sendmail's address test indicates that sendmail is providing user+detail to LMTP (see below). Except for this problem, dovecot, LMTP, and sieve are all working perfectly. Is there something I'm missing, or is this a bug?

[Dovecot] Sieve - not functioning for additional email aliases.
by Jacek Osiecki 14 Jan '14

14 Jan '14

Hi, On one of my servers (old one, version 1.2.5) user reported that vacation message for basic address works fine, but not for the aliases. I know that this is an old version, but we can't simply switch them to the most current dovecot release without preparing and testing everything... So I'm rather asking for help with debugging the case :) This person has email my.name(a)olddomain.pl. However, they are switching to new domain - newdomain.pl - and it is becoming their main brand. So temporarily olddomain.pl is still their "home" domain, but there is a domain alias newdomain->olddomain. The sieve file is simple: forward message and reply with vacation: ---- require ["copy","vacation"]; # rule:[redirect] if anyof (true) { redirect :copy "my.boss(a)newdomain.pl"; vacation :days 1 :addresses ["my.name(a)olddomain.pl","my.name(a)newdomain.pl"] text: I'm unavailable now. Please contact my boss: my.boss(a)newdomain.pl Greetings . ; } ---- When I send email to my.name(a)olddomain.pl - it is sent to my.boss(a)newdomain.pl and I receive the vacation message. When I send it to the alias (my.name(a)newdomain.pl) - none of above is done. Any idea how I can debug it? Running test-sieve does not help - it claims that will simply forward and deliver the message... Greetings, -- Jacek Osiecki joshua(a)ceti.pl GG:3828944 I don't want something I need. I want something I want.

[Dovecot] dict ldap
by me＠electronico.nc 14 Jan '14

14 Jan '14

Hello everybody, Dovecot 2.2.6 with LDAP auth against AD (Samba4). I would like to know if it's possible to specify an LDAP transport for dict (something like dovecot-dict-ldap.conf.ext). I'm in need to setup shared mailboxes and if I could query LDAP, that would help a lot. IE : user1 user2 user3 are in OU=group1, so group1 (setup as user in AD) would share its mailbox with user1 user2 and user3. Thanks in advance for your time. Nicolas

[Dovecot] Slow authentication performance when switching folder
by ra＠rz.uni-frankfurt.de 13 Jan '14

13 Jan '14

Hello, we have a problem with Dovecot 2.2.9 running on an AIX 7.1 and compiled with xlc. At first we configured passdb to use our ldap directory via pam and experienced an Internal login failure like the following one Jan 13 16:20:02 imap-login: Info: Internal login failure (pid=29818948 id=1) (internal failure, 1 successful auths): user=<user>, method=PLAIN, rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, lip=yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy, TLS, session=<r/P1m9vv5ACNAv6j> I read that this error occurs if the last passdb returns a continue and there is no other passdb to ask. We added two more passdb to rule out that pam is the problem. We added ldap directly and as third a fallback passwd file, but we still get the Internal login failure. As far as i can see this only occurs if i switch to another folder and i´m being reauthenticated. Are there any suggestions on what is going wrong? Any push in the right direction would be appreciated. kind regards Manuel PS: This is the dump of our dovecot configuration file: doveconf: Warning: service auth { client_limit=1000 } is lower than required under max. load (32768) doveconf: Warning: service anvil { client_limit=1000 } is lower than required under max. load (24579) # OS: AIX 1 00F7B83D4C00 auth_debug = yes auth_mechanisms = plain login auth_username_chars = abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890- auth_username_format = %n auth_username_translation = AaBbCcDdEeFfGgHhIiJjKkLlMmNnOoPpQqRrSsTtUuVvWwXxYyZz auth_verbose = yes base_dir = /var/run/dovecot-imap default_process_limit = 8192 disable_plaintext_auth = no first_valid_uid = 100 info_log_path = /mailbase/dovecot/2.2.9/log/dovecot_imap_debug.log log_path = /mailbase/dovecot/2.2.9/log/dovecot_imap.log login_greeting = University-Frankfurt-IMAP-Horde ready. mail_access_groups = mhs mail_debug = yes mail_fsync = never mail_location = mbox:~/:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/mail-indexes/%u mailbox_idle_check_interval = 90 secs mbox_write_locks = fcntl namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / type = private name = } passdb { args = username_format=%u /mailbase/etc/passwd driver = passwd-file } passdb { args = %s driver = pam } plugin { stats_refresh = 30 secs stats_track_cmds = yes } service replication-notify-fifo { name = aggregator } service anvil-auth-penalty { name = anvil } service auth-worker { name = auth-worker } service auth-client { name = auth } service config { name = config } service dict { name = dict } service login/proxy-notify { name = director } service dns-client { name = dns_client } service doveadm-server { name = doveadm } service { inet_listener { address = * port = 0 name = imap } inet_listener { address = * port = 993 name = imaps } name = imap-login } service imap-urlauth { name = imap-urlauth-login } service imap-urlauth-worker { name = imap-urlauth-worker } service token-login/imap-urlauth { name = imap-urlauth } service login/imap { name = imap } service indexer-worker { name = indexer-worker } service indexer { name = indexer } service ipc { name = ipc } service lmtp { name = lmtp } service log-errors { name = log } service { inet_listener { address = 10.1.1.40 port = 0 name = pop3 } inet_listener { address = * port = 0 name = pop3s } name = pop3-login } service login/pop3 { name = pop3 } service replicator-doveadm { name = replicator } service login/ssl-params { name = ssl-params } service stats-mail { name = stats } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/thot_mit_chain.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/certs/private_key_thot.rz.pem userdb { driver = passwd } userdb { args = /mailbase/dovecot/2.2.9/etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf driver = ldap } protocol imap { mail_plugins = " stats imap_stats" service replication-notify-fifo { name = aggregator } service anvil-auth-penalty { name = anvil } service auth-worker { name = auth-worker } service auth-client { name = auth } service config { name = config } service dict { name = dict } service login/proxy-notify { name = director } service dns-client { name = dns_client } service doveadm-server { name = doveadm } service imap { name = imap-login } service imap-urlauth { name = imap-urlauth-login } service imap-urlauth-worker { name = imap-urlauth-worker } service token-login/imap-urlauth { name = imap-urlauth } service login/imap { name = imap } service indexer-worker { name = indexer-worker } service indexer { name = indexer } service ipc { name = ipc } service lmtp { name = lmtp } service log-errors { name = log } service pop3 { name = pop3-login } service login/pop3 { name = pop3 } service replicator-doveadm { name = replicator } service login/ssl-params { name = ssl-params } service stats-mail { name = stats } }

[Dovecot] it's possible to send email from the system after the mailbox quota is full
by ihab 13 Jan '14

13 Jan '14

it's possible to send email from the system after the mailbox quota is full i don't want warning mail i want something else because when i use warning on 100% or 99% or less some times the last message be too large (so if just 5% is free from quota size and the last msg size is 6% from quota ) after that the mailbox will not receive this message or warning message . -- View this message in context: http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/it-s-possible-to-send-email-from-the-s… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] dsync error: gz trailer has wrong CRC value
by Joe Beaubien 13 Jan '14

13 Jan '14

A few days ago by dovecot installation started behaving weirdly. First it was doveadm fts optimize which would fail (a thread running about that) and now it's dsync, which means my backups are not working. This all started a few days ago, which I find a little weird, because I haven't messed around with the dovecot setup in months. I've been searching the internet, but didn't find anything useful yet. Would anyone know how to fix the errors in the log below? Thanks, -Joe dovecot version is 2.1.7 Here is the log: dsync(archive): Error: zlib.read(/mba_data/emails/archive/storage/m.1885): gz trailer has wrong CRC value at 16966298 dsync(archive): Error: zlib.read(/mba_data/emails/archive/storage/m.1885): missing gz header at 16973513 dsync(archive): Error: zlib.read(/mba_data/emails/archive/storage/m.1885): missing gz header at 16973513 dsync(archive): Error: zlib.read(/mba_data/emails/archive/storage/m.1885): missing gz header at 16973513 dsync(archive): Error: zlib.read(/mba_data/emails/archive/storage/m.1885): missing gz header at 16973513 dsync(archive): Error: zlib.read(/mba_data/emails/archive/storage/m.1885): missing gz header at 16973513 dsync(archive): Error: read(msg input) failed: Invalid argument dsync(archive): Error: zlib.read(/mba_data/emails/archive/storage/m.1885): missing gz header at 16973513 dsync(archive): Panic: file mail-index-transaction-update.c: line 906 (mail_index_update_ext): assertion failed: (seq > 0 && (seq <= mail_index_view_get_messages_count(t->view) || seq <= t->last_new_seq)) dsync(archive): Error: Raw backtrace: /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x4203a) [0x7f3a5150503a] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(default_fatal_handler+0x2a) [0x7f3a515050fa] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7f3a514dc3f0] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mail_index_update_ext+0x1c7) [0x7f3a51804927] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0xa8746) [0x7f3a517f7746] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mail_cache_transaction_commit+0x4c) [0x7f3a517f7a2c] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0xa8af3) [0x7f3a517f7af3] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0xa2cea) [0x7f3a517f1cea] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mail_index_transaction_commit_full+0x84) [0x7f3a51800754] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(index_transaction_commit+0x8a) [0x7f3a517f209a] -> /opt/dovec ot/lib/d ovecot/lib20_zlib_plugin.so(+0x3b7a) [0x7f3a4fe8cb7a] -> /opt/dovecot/lib/dovecot/lib20_fts_plugin.so(+0xb481) [0x7f3a5009b481] -> /opt/dovecot-2.1.7/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_transaction_commit_get_changes+0x3d) [0x7f3a517c9c4d] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync() [0x4297e6] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync() [0x42b222] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync(dsync_worker_select_mailbox+0x2e) [0x4291be] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync() [0x424c75] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync() [0x424db7] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync(dsync_brain_msg_sync_more+0x22c) [0x4245ec] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync(dsync_brain_sync+0x459) [0x422fc9] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync() [0x423e61] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync(dsync_brain_sync+0x7f1) [0x423361] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync() [0x423cdc] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync(dsync_brain_sync+0x832) [0x4233a2] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync(dsync_brain_sync_all+0x18) [0x423ee8] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync() [0x420f36] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync() [0x4215b2] -> /opt/dovecot/bin/dsync() [0x40e798]

[Dovecot] Dovecot quota with MySQL - username issue
by michael 11 Jan '14

11 Jan '14

Hi all, I'm using Dovecot 2.2.8 with quota using a MySQL backend. The Quota plugin is listed for POP3, IMAP and LDA. When it is enabled for LDA, it populates the "username" field in the MySQL table with e mail addresses. I end up with a mixture of email addresses and usernames, which causes things to not fully work. It *should* be just usernames. the LDA SQL statement is: user_query = \ SELECT mailboxes.username, accounts.uid, accounts.uid AS gid, \ concat('/home/',mailboxes.username) AS home, \ (SELECT IF(accounts.new_mail_fmt=1, \ CONCAT('Maildir:',home,'/Maildir'), \ CONCAT('mbox:',home,'/Maildir:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/',mailboxes.username))) AS mail_location \ FROM mailboxes JOIN accounts ON accounts.username=mailboxes.username \ WHERE (mailboxes.email='%u' || \ (mailboxes.email=CONCAT('@','%d') AND (SELECT COUNT(email) FROM mailboxes \ WHERE email='%u') = 0) AND mailboxes.active IS TRUE) It clearly knows the username. Usernames on this system are just names, not full email addresses. The configuration of Quota Dict is: dovecot.conf dict/quotadict = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf ... quota = dict:user::proxy::quotadict dovecot-dict-sql.conf map { pattern = priv/quota/storage table = quota username_field = username value_field = bytes } map { pattern = priv/quota/messages table = quota username_field = username value_field = messages } Can this be fixed? Michael
