falsely log "auth: unknown user" when multiple userdb
by Anthony Panko 01 Apr '22

01 Apr '22

Hello, When there is a multiple userdb to look for user, Dovecot log «auth: unknown user» when the first userdb search failed. Then Dovecot successfully search user in the second userdb and things works. But "auth: unknown user" event left in a logs. Logs look like this: Apr 1 12:38:48 mail dovecot[75384]: lmtp(75397): Connect from 127.0.5.1 Apr 1 12:38:48 mail dovecot[75384]: auth: ldap(order(a)XXX,127.0.5.1): unknown user Apr 1 12:38:48 mail dovecot[75384]: lmtp(order)<75397><D8m2HCjIRmKFJgEAABdyCg>: msgid=<157609214.20220331172309@YYY>: saved mail to INBOX Debug show failed search in the first userdb and successfull search in the second userdb. When user found in the first userdb «unknown user» event does not appear. Configuration is: userdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/udb-ldap-personal.conf driver = ldap override_fields = home=/mnt/mboxes/personal/%n } userdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/udb-ldap-general.conf driver = ldap override_fields = home=/mnt/mboxes/general/%n } Dovecot verision is 2.3.16 (7e2e900c1a). -- Best regards, Anthony Pankov

Dovecot Submission - rate limiting
by itanguy＠univ-brest.fr 31 Mar '22

31 Mar '22

Hello, is there any way to rate limit submission mail (counting per user) when using Dovecot/Submission (no Postfix)? Using a milter seems impossible. Using Dovecot Events seems "too" global (not per users discrimination). Maybe rate-limiting has to be external and then include in the pass_db query ? Thank your for any hints. Ismaël Tanguy

Simplifying Support of Virtual and System Users
by Mark Olbert 29 Mar '22

29 Mar '22

Apologies if this has already been raised here (which I suspect it has 😊). I tried to raise it as an issue over on github but issues are not enabled for the repository. The support for mixing virtual users, with fully-qualified email addresses, and system users could be simpler. Assuming it doesn’t mess up other stuff in the code base, of course 😊. The problem appears to be that the PAM passwd module requires just user names without a domain (which makes sense given that they’re system users) but does not, so far as I can see, support the username_format argument. In my setup, the default structure of 10-auth.conf demonstrates this: auth_username_format = %n That means all username arguments lack the domain part…which complicates using fully-qualified ones for virtual users. I realize I could assign arbitrary unique names to the virtual accounts in the lookup file. But that complicates administering the system, so I want to be able to include the domain for virtual users. After about five hair-pulling hours of wrestling with the configuration I stumbled across an answer utilizing conditionals<https://serverfault.com/questions/260488/dovecot-user-lookup-fails-when-usi…> on ServerFault. It works fine. But being able to pass a username_format parameter to the PAM module (which I tried, but it was rejected) would be a lot simpler, and a lot more intuitive. - Mark

Private \seen flags lost during message move for other users
by Cube . 28 Mar '22

28 Mar '22

Hello, I have a shared mailbox set up with a private index: maildir:/var/mail/public:INDEXPVT=~/Maildir/public Per user \Seen flags are working fine until one user moves a message into another folder/sub-mailbox. For that user doing the move the message remains \Seen however for other users who have already seen the message the flag is lost and it appears unread in the new location. If the message is moved back it still appears unread to the other user even if had been read in that folder/sub-mailbox in the past. Is there anyway to retain per user \Seen that follows the message when its moved? Thank you.

dovecot replication on dovecot v 2.3.8
by Stephane Magnier 27 Mar '22

27 Mar '22

Hi, I am trying using a replication. Here is my config : 10-mail.conf. Before going " on real life " I try to make a very basic example... but without any success :-( bad start I took the config example on dovecot wiki The idea is to replicate the user: "user1" on a different server IP 177.28.1.120 at the location /home/SERVER/test and to get at the end the folder "/home/SERVER/test/user1" On the top, I wish to replication with the user / group : vmail. For the transfer, I use the root login on the backup server to avoid other rights problems at the moment 2) how to synchronized specific users ? apparently it's trying to sync other things.. :-) # mbox_very_dirty_syncs = yes mail_plugins=$mail_plugins quota notify replication service replicator { process_min_avail = 1 } dsync_remote_cmd = ssh -l root 177.28.1.120 doveadm dsync-server -u user1 plugin { mail_replica =remote:root@177.28.1.120:/home/SERVER/test/ } service aggregator { fifo_listener replication-notify-fifo { user = vmail } unix_listener replication-notify { user = vmail } } service replicator { unix_listener replicator-doveadm { mode = 0600 user = vmail } } replication_max_conns = 10 But apparently nothing is happening.... [root@xxx xenia]# doveadm replicator status Queued 'sync' requests 0 Queued 'high' requests 0 Queued 'low' requests 0 Queued 'failed' requests 0 Queued 'full resync' requests 24 Waiting 'failed' requests 10 Total number of known users 34 and the folder test is empty Any idea what is wrong ? maybe I should ask a start a cmd line to start the process ?

log failed plaintext password for specific user only
by mj 25 Mar '22

25 Mar '22

Hi, We are logging failed authentication attempts, with the attempted password as auth_verbose_passwords=sha1 The question: is it possible to configure auth_verbose_passwords=plain for a specific user only? Turning it on globally would be too much sensitive information for the purpose. Reason: We are currently observing a high number of failed authentications for a specific user, coming from *many* diffirent IPs across the globe, with most IPs only trying once or twice, making this difficult to block. The number of failed authentications cause this account to regularly become blocked in AD. We would like to know if they are trying older actual passwords from the user, or if it's just dictionary attack. Thanks!

Setting imap-login process_limit when service_count>1
by Joseph Tam 25 Mar '22

25 Mar '22

More of my users are accessing mail remotely, which probably explained why I started seeing Mar 18 05:50:34 dovecot: master: Warning: service(imap-login): process_limit (2) reached, client connections are being dropped I played around with increasing limits, but made the mistake of setting service_count to a value other than 0 and 1. service imap-login { client_limit = 1024 service_count = 10240 process_min_avail = 2 process_limit = 8 } Doubling and redoubling process_limit and increasing service_count didn't prevent IMAP from eventually grinding to a halt because process_limit was reached. Mar 18 12:36:12 dovecot: master: Warning: service(imap-login): process_limit (4) reached, client connections are being dropped Mar 18 20:39:48 viol dovecot: master: Warning: service(imap-login): process_limit (8) reached, client connections are being dropped Observing the way imap-login processes spawn and retain file descriptors, I finally understood the subtlety of [1], which explains that imap-login will not exit despite reaching service_count if one SSL connection is still open. With many long-lived client connections, the asymptotic behaviour is that the total #clients plateaus, but get spread out over many imap-login processes, with many lingering on to hold a few SSL connections. For service_count>1, process_limit should be set to a large fraction of peak simultaneous clients (i.e. the same value used when service_count=1), otherwise there is a high likelihood of running into process_limit and game over. Given this behaviour, there doesn't seem much sense in setting service_count to anything but 0 (unlimited => performance mode) or 1 (security mode). Setting to other values supposedly limit memory leaks, but if a single persistent SSL client can hold up an imap-login process from exiting and releasing memory, it seems to negate this purpose. Anyways, maybe [1] can mention this so others don't fall into the same pit I did. References [1] https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/login_processes/ Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

ok replication does not work
by Paul Kudla (SCOM.CA Internet) 24 Mar '22

would someone please send me the standard that you are working towards (rfc stuff) in the mean time a bad email or folder or both are simply causing replication not to work no there is no logging of any kind of an error i would appreciate the info as i will start ripping down the c code to fix this doveadm / replication (seems to be seperate ???) remote , tcp tcps nothing works your co operation on this matter would be appreciated i dumped the 5 accounts listed below started from scratch and it just simply DOES NOT WORK all account replicate except for # sync.status Queued 'sync' requests 0 Queued 'high' requests 5 Queued 'low' requests 0 Queued 'failed' requests 0 Queued 'full resync' requests 0 Waiting 'failed' requests 0 Total number of known users 255 username type status paul(a)scom.ca incremental Waiting for dsync to finish nick(a)elirpa.com incremental Waiting for dsync to finish keith(a)elirpa.com incremental Waiting for dsync to finish ed.hanna(a)dssmgmt.com incremental Waiting for dsync to finish ed(a)scom.ca incremental Waiting for dsync to finish always the same five accounts and always they choke without any info i am forced to do a sync every five minutes (ten minute intevals) to keep the servers in sync. someone please give me a standard to work with otherwise the hacks that i do will be exactly that a hack???

imap_metadata plugin panic
by Elisamuel Resto 23 Mar '22

23 Mar '22

Hello, This may be covered somewhere but recently I enabled the metadata plugin to work with sieve as part of some updates I did a while back and I hadn't checked my logs for any issues with it and so far they're not completely taking my system down. Right now, upon trying to delete a folder I noticed the following in my logs... what am I missing?

Disconnected: Shutting down (disconnected while authenticating) :: after mysql restart :: bug?
by rudolf＠padaru.de 17 Mar '22

17 Mar '22

Good morning list, i looking for a while for a solution above problem. We use dovecot 2.3.7.2 (3c910f64b) (Ubuntu 20.04) and 2.3.13 (89f716dc2) (Ubuntu 18.04) . Often we have the problem, that the authentication (dovecot <-> mysql) dont work after an mysql restart. Unfortunately i cant reproduce this problem, if i restart the mysql-server the authentication work when the database is up again. If we have this problem it is enough to reload the dovecot. So that the auth-worker will reconnect and everything is fine again. I have tried to encircle the problem with verbose auth-logging a wile ago but i only see timeouts from the auth-worker while mysql is running But this is not the solution für the problem. Is there an option i can set to force the auth-worker to reconnect? Maybe an timeout or something else? Or is there an value set to high in my conf? Somethin like the idle_kill from anvil service? Or is it simply a bug? doveconf output: auth_anonymous_username = anonymous auth_cache_negative_ttl = 1 hours auth_cache_size = 0 auth_cache_ttl = 1 hours auth_cache_verify_password_with_worker = no

Finding Users Over Quota
by dovecot＠ptld.com 17 Mar '22

17 Mar '22

Using doveadm quota will let you see if a specific user is over quota. Is there a way to have dovecot tell you which users are currently over quota? Is the quota_clone plugin a way to save user quota to dict like how last_login saves to dict? The documentation for quota_clone is MIA. (As of 3/16/22) https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins v https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/QuotaClone v https://doc.dovecot.org/plugin-settings/quota-clone-plugin/ v 404 Not Found

SIS and tracing the origin of an attachment
by doug 16 Mar '22

16 Mar '22

Hi All, I'm trying to trace an attachment within an SIS subdirectory to the email message(s) that link to it. I say messages because I'm also using dovecot dedup. My understanding is the linked file name is the hash value of the attachments contents concatenated with the GUID of the email message. I have had marginal success with a message I created myself. Example: I generated an email with two attachments. Here are the links in my attachment directory. ./26/c5/26c5c540d41779d83d2f5388041d05c67d720d9a-73eca8051acd276272310000f2bc99a3 ./65/cd/65cd73112a489ef07f17ed5740aa60358e2dd3fb-74eca8051acd276272310000f2bc99a3 In my sent folder the actual GUID of the message is 75eca8051acd276272310000f2bc99a3. So the GUID of the attachment is based on the GUID of the message, but not exact. The second hex byte seems to be decremented as an offset of the attachment index from the GUID of the message. At least in my one example. # doveadm dump /mailstore/doug/mail/mailboxes/Sent/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index | grep guid | tail -1 - guid: 75eca8051acd276272310000f2bc99a3 With that actual GUID I can find the message with a search: # doveadm search -u doug mailbox Sent guid 75eca8051acd276272310000f2bc99a3 doug e5711f1cf2c9294f71090000059b96e4 53526 Now let's try to track down another email when only the HASH-GUID value is known. Here is one randomly picked. ./00/a2/00a2d5de3e41053d59bd10084826bbe094aa1c59-57857b09d1a327627e260000f2bc99a3 # doveadm search -A mailbox '*' guid 57857b09d1a327627e260000f2bc99a3 # doveadm search -A mailbox '*' guid 58857b09d1a327627e260000f2bc99a3 # doveadm search -A mailbox '*' guid 59857b09d1a327627e260000f2bc99a3 I repeated this incrementing and decrementing from 5085... through 5f85... and never located the message. This seems like it should be trivial but I've been struggling with it for days. The GUID isn't random, there must be a way to track the attachment back. What am I missing? And for those wondering why, our virus scanner flagged a number of attachments, some with several links, and I want ask the users to delete the offending messages so I can purge them from the server. If I can find the emails I can give them the mail folder, date/time, and subject of the message. -- Doug

invalid lz4 chunk size??
by Joachim Lindenberg 16 Mar '22

16 Mar '22

Hello, when accessing one mailbox via ActiveSync / SoGo / Dovecot I get the following error repeatedly in dovecot log: imap(somemailbox(a)example.org)<1579><***>: Error: Mailbox Sent: UID=1553: read(compress()) failed: read() failed: lz4.read(): invalid lz4 chunk size: 1601505441 at 16842752 (read reason=) I can still access the mailbox via IMAP though. What can I do to resolve the issue? Thanks, Joachim

sieve-filter not respecting :create flag of fileinto
by David Arroyo 16 Mar '22

16 Mar '22

Hello, I recently significantly modified my sieve rules for filing mailing list posts in my Fastmail inbox. The rules contain a few rules that file mail like so: fileinto :create ml.${5}${4}{$3}{$2}{$1}; # reversed list-id The rules work as expected on delivery to fastmail. Because these rules only run on delivery, and the new folder layout is different from my existing one, I want to apply the rules to my existing mail. I thought dovecot's `sieve-filter` command, together with the `imapc` storage backend, would be a good way to do that, so I moved some existing mail into a folder, `sieve-test`, and ran the following: sieve-filter -x '+editheader +mailbox' -W -e rules.sieve sieve-test However, what I see is that sieve-filter fails when the new directory does not exist. Here is some example (redacted) output: Info: imapc(imap.fastmail.com:993): Connected to x.x.x.x:993 (local x.x.x.x) error: msgid=<xxx>: fileinto action: failed to store into mailbox 'ml.gnu.guix-devel': Mailbox does not exist. sieve-filter(me): Info: sieve: msgid=<xxx>: left message in mailbox 'sieve-test' error: sieve script execution failed for this message; message left in source mailbox. sieve-filter(me): Info: sieve: msgid=<yyy>: fileinto action: stored mail into mailbox 'ml.9fans.9fans' My config looks like this: protocols = none mail_location = imapc: namespace { inbox = yes separator = . } imapc_host = imap.fastmail.com imapc_port = 993 imapc_ssl = imaps imapc_user = $username If this is a bug in sieve-filter I'd be happy to try and fix it, but I'm reaching out here first to see if this is expected behavior or a misconfiguration on my part. Thanks for any help, David

mdbox_rotate_size recommendation / performance
by Lucas Rolff 15 Mar '22

15 Mar '22

Hi guys, When using mdbox under Dovecot, the mdbox_rotate_size setting defaults to 10 megabyte - from a performance point of view if using spinning drives does this matter whether one goes for e.g. 2MB versus 10MB, especially in the combination with compression. Does anyone have any performance data regarding it’s size, and what’s a decent trade-off between limiting IOPS required by the drive versus the sequential read/write speeds. Any pointers would be awesome! Thanks in advance

AntiVirus in Maildir
by Masakazu Hirose 15 Mar '22

15 Mar '22

Hi all, I run a mail server on Maildir. Does Dovecot work correctly if I delete the mail files stored in Maildir? Do I need to run the doveadm command? I want to run a virus scan on Maildir. When a virus is detected, the mail file is deleted without notifying Dovecot. I assumed this was incorrect behavior for Dovecot. Please help me when someone has time. Thanks, Masa

allow_nets equivalent for all users?
by Bryan K. Walton 14 Mar '22

14 Mar '22

Hi, It is my understanding that allow_nets is a field that gets used in a password database, and therefore is a per-user setting. Is there an equivalent method for defining allowed network(s) for ALL users? In other words, a single setting that applies to every user? Thanks, Bryan

Possible bug interaction between Dovecot and Thunderbird 98/99 email client
by Arthur Koziol 11 Mar '22

11 Mar '22

Hi Dovecot devs, My name is Arthur. I'm a volunteer with Mozilla and am working with a user who's having some odd issues with his Thunderbird email client. I'm reaching out to you folks because he's using an at-home IMAP setup with Dovecot. It's not 100% clear if his setup is polling his GMail accounts and then pulling everything to his Dovecot setup but if there's any interesting in jumping into the bug we're trying to help this user with, feel free to browse the bug at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1726319 I asked the user if he's reached out to the Dovecot devs yet but he's not replied. We're not sure if this is a Dovecot / setup issue, a Thunderbird issue or something in between but we could use some other eyes and ideas of what to check for this user if you guys have a couple seconds to take a look. Thanks for reading. best, Arthur

Can't create viable password hashes
by David Griffith 11 Mar '22

11 Mar '22

I recently discovered that I can no longer create viable password hashes for use in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.passwd. So far, I've been using the following command done by root: doveadm_cmd pw -s SHA512-CRYPT -u joe -p mypassword This creates something that looks legit, but dovecot won't accept it. I've been using my own solution for allowing users to change their dovecot passwords (https://gitlab.com/DavidGriffith/dovepasswd) and this is how it generates the hashes. Is there a better way of going about this? -- David Griffith dave(a)661.org A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?

Is fts_autoindex_exclude options working fine?
by Alessio Cecchi 07 Mar '22

07 Mar '22

Hi, we have some trouble with Solr ad FTS engine. Solr have some spike of load and responding slow when an user expunge or append a message. fts_autoindex is set to "yes". So I add to 90-plugin.conf these options: fts_autoindex_exclude = Drafts fts_autoindex_exclude2 = Spam fts_autoindex_exclude3 = Trash fts_autoindex_exclude4 = Sent or fts_autoindex_exclude = \Drafts fts_autoindex_exclude2 = \Junk fts_autoindex_exclude3 = \Trash fts_autoindex_exclude4 = \Sent But the problem is still present. Here some example of logs when users have timeout in their email client, specially when saving in Drafts automatically: Mar 7 12:21:37 pop01 dovecot: imap(user1(a)company1.com) session=<flNVCZ/ZcO5dPnGT>: Warning: Maildir /home/vmail/domains/company1.com/user1/Maildir/.Drafts: Synchronization took 119 seconds (0 new msgs, 0 flag change attempts, 1 expunge attempts) Mar 7 12:21:37 pop01 dovecot: imap(user1(a)company1.com) session=<flNVCZ/ZcO5dPnGT>: Disconnected: Connection closed (UID EXPUNGE finished 118.715 secs ago) in=77617 out=679511 deleted=1 expunged=1 autoexpunged=0 trashed=0 appended=2 hdr_count=0 hdr_bytes=0 body_count=0 body_bytes=0 Mar 7 12:21:52 pop02 dovecot: imap(user2(a)company2.net) session=<B9NNCZ/Z+uC5Ydlv>: Warning: Maildir /home/vmail/domains/company2.net/user2/Maildir/.Trash: Synchronization took 149 seconds (0 new msgs, 0 flag change attempts, 1 expunge attempts) Mar 7 12:21:52 pop02 dovecot: imap(user2(a)company2.net) session=<B9NNCZ/Z+uC5Ydlv>: Disconnected: Logged out in=2407 out=7025 deleted=0 expunged=0 autoexpunged=1 trashed=0 appended=0 hdr_count=0 hdr_bytes=0 body_count=0 body_bytes=0 Is my fts_autoindex_exclude wrong or there are some limits with this option?

Pigeonhole Sieve: Vacation Extension issue
by Zakaria 05 Mar '22

05 Mar '22

Hi there, I wondered if there is any one who can help me out on this issue. I tried to setup the vacation extension, and it works fine if the Return-Path header and Envelope-From field in Received wasn’t rewritten and contains the actual sender email address which the vacation extension will retrieve from and reply to. Given, I’ve rewritten both headers, to modify TLS connection mailed-by address and I had to revert back to get the vacation extension working, I wondered if there is anyone know how to modify the Sieve settings in Dovecot config for LMTP/LDA and Sieve, or Sieve script rules to retrieve sender email address from From header or any other specific header? If it's not possible, it would be so good if its implemented, it doesn’t seem to be a hard task, so please log this as a feature request. With thanks. Zakaria. Btw, all my prayers and solidarity I send out to Ukraine, Russia and the rest of Europe, and the world, and the sick from this and COVID and alike. We should value one another, Seriously, Putin must urgently stop giving to who want destruction and harm in Europe and manipulating behind the scene such devil affair and leading to this very sickening and unacceptable horror. Palestine deserve justice than preoccupying the world with creating more injustices.

doveadm quota get hangs for 60 seconds (some analysis done)
by jaroslav＠thinline.cz 05 Mar '22

05 Mar '22

Hello, I encountered somewhat strange behaviour when running doveadm quota get with wildcard username (all usernames are in user@domain format): doveadm -f pager quota get -u *(a)example.domain The command hangs for 60 seconds before returning its result. I tried to dig into the issue a bit using strace and found out that there seems to be some kind of communication mismatch between Dovecot processes. Here is what I found - sorry for the wall of text, strace outputs tend to be large, I tried to reduce them as much as possible. I also tried to draw some conclusions below. This is from strace in the doveadm process, it connects to auth-userdb and requests list of users 1646473083.263021 connect(10, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="/run/dovecot/auth-userdb"}, 110) = 0 1646473083.263627 write(10, "VERSION\t1\t0\nLIST\t1\tuser=*(a)example.domain\n", 47) = 47 1646473083.263807 read(10, "VERSION\t1\t1\nSPID\t30012\n", 8192) = 23 1646473084.188212 read(10, "LIST\t1\tuser1@notthat.domain\nLIST\t1\tuser2@another.domain\nLIST\t1\tuser3@also.not\nLIST\t1\t.... This list goes on, the server has over 10000 user accounts. (As a side note, this behaviour struck me as strange - I would expect that the result would be filtered by the server side of the connection, only listing users that match the requested wildcard. I don't know anything about Dovecot internals though, so this might be perfectly normal.) At some point the returned data contain users doveadm is interested in (ie. users that match the wildcard) and requests their information from other Dovecot services, this is an excerpt for a dict service: 1646473084.224608 connect(13, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="/run/dovecot/dict"}, 110) = 0 1646473084.225617 write(13, "H2\t2\t0\trelevantuser(a)example.domain\tsqldomainquota\n", 50) = 50 No data are read from FD 10 during this time. When all users are queried, reading from FD 10 resumes 1646473084.274405 read(10, "ifth.domain\nLIST\t1\tuser987(a)domain.six\nLIST\t1\t... At this point though, the process gets stuck: 1646473084.274514 epoll_wait(11, [], 1, 0) = 0 1646473084.274555 read(10, 0x5620076d79dd, 6035) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) 1646473084.274601 epoll_wait(11, [{EPOLLIN, {u32=124338208, u64=94695563280416}}], 1, 155000) = 1 It resumes after 60 seconds, reads some more users and then receives string "DONE" 1646473144.287149 read(10, "LIST\t1\tuser456@domain.seven\nLIST\t1\tuser123@domain.e8\nLIST\t1\tuser7865@dom.nine\n", 6035) = 99 1646473144.287149 read(10, "LIST\t1\t ...

As opposed to reads above, which amounted to 8kB blocks, these are reading few addresses at a time. After the "DONE" string is received, there is no more communication with other Dovecot processes, doveadm prints out results to the console and terminates. Next I investigated the auth process. 1646473083.263121 accept(11, {sa_family=AF_UNIX}, [28->2]) = 23 1646473083.263181 getsockname(23, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="/run/dovecot/auth-userdb"}, [28->27]) = 0 1646473083.263690 read(23, "VERSION\t1\t0\nLIST\t1\tuser=*(a)example.domain\n", 1024) = 47 1646473083.263939 connect(24, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="auth-worker"}, 110) = 0 1646473083.264228 write(24, "VERSION\tauth-worker\t1\t0\nDBHASH\t1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef\tfedcba0987654321fedcba0987654321\n", 97) = 97 1646473083.264271 writev(24, [{iov_base="1\t", iov_len=2}, {iov_base="LIST\t1\tuser=*(a)example.domain\tservice=\toriginal-username", iov_len=61}, {iov_base="\n", iov_len=1}], 3) = 64 1646473084.187567 read(24, "1\t*\tuser1(a)notthat.domain\n1\t*\t... 1646473084.187977 write(23, "LIST\t1\tuser1(a)notthat.domain\nLIST\t1\t Reads and writes alternate until these syscalls: 1646473084.238938 read(24, " ... \n1\tOK\n", 8167) = 5354 1646473084.239108 write(23, "LIST\t1\t ... , 51224) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) 1646473084.239536 write(23, "LIST\t1\t ... , 51224) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) From the timing this looks like a kernel buffer for the connection is filled because the other side is not reading the data. This matches strace from doveadm which is at this point reading information about quotas from dict service (timestamp 1646473084.225617.) Auth process seems to react to this by putting the FD on epoll list and then it goes to handle other connections. FD 24 is removed from the epoll list at the same time: 1646473084.239926 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, 23, {EPOLLOUT|EPOLLERR|EPOLLHUP, {u32=109861328, u64=94566699784656}}) = 0 1646473084.239980 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, 24, 0x7ffca3a9ae2c) = 0 FD 23 becomes writable relatively quickly, pending data is written to it and read from FD 24 is attempted with no data available: 1646473084.270224 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, 23, 0x7ffca3a9ae5c) = 0 1646473084.270271 write(23, "LIST\t1\t ... , 51224) = 51224 1646473084.270620 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, 24, {EPOLLIN|EPOLLPRI|EPOLLERR|EPOLLHUP, {u32=109860944, u64=94566699784272}}) = 0 1646473084.270712 read(24, 0x5602069198e3, 2813) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) Again, nothing else happens for 60 seconds until FD 24 signals what I presume is a connection close attempt.

As I said above, I don't know anything about Dovecot internals but from I can gather from these outputs, all data are exchanged correctly and nothing gets stuck reading them from a permanent storage or alike. This bug doesn't manifest every time but seems to be fairly deterministic in that it always triggers for some domains but not for others. From what I've noticed, this affected domain receives all its users in single 8k read in the doveadm process, which in turns triggers (relatively) lengthy lookups and forces the auth process to put more writes on hold (at timestamp 1646473084.239108) Is it possible that when this happens, the "OK" string received from auth-userdb process (timestamp 1646473084.238938) is overlooked and auth process is waiting for more data from auth-userdb while auth-userdb waits for another request? The server itself runs Dovecot 1:2.3.13+dfsg1-2 from Debian repository on amd64. Output from dovecot --version is 2.3.13 (89f716dc2). As far as I can see, nothing indicates this is a performance problem related to insufficient hardware - server runs at 25% CPU utilization average, Pressure Stall Information reports average of 0.5% for CPU, 1% for I/O. System memory used is 10 out of 64GB. As far as I can see, no Dovecot process becomes CPU-bound when doveadm is running. I tried some web search but found nothing related to this. For our purposes, this issue has a relatively simple workaround - using doveadm quota get on specific usernames instead of the wildcard one. Since this might be an issue with a relatively easy fix for someone who knows where to look, I decided to post this bug report anyway. If needed, I should be able to test patches that apply cleanly to Debian sources and compile with dpkg-buildpackage. Thanks

Dupliate-ish email search?
by ＠lbutlr 04 Mar '22

04 Mar '22

I'm mulling over writing some code to find emails in a maildir that are duplicates, ish. That is to say that sometimes the same message doesn't quite show up as an exact match. Like some ad company may send you three identical messages, except they aren't actually EXACTLY identical, the message-IDs are different, and may the to address quoted part is different, so normal duplicate finders fail to find them. Before I start, is this a solved problem? -- I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise, we climbed aboard their starship, we headed for the skies.

Issue in 2.3.18 with fts_header_excludes/includes
by Alessio Cecchi 03 Mar '22

03 Mar '22

Hi, I'm still doing some test with fts-flatcurve, after updating to 2.3.18 I enabled: fts_header_excludes = * fts_header_includes = From To Cc Bcc Subject Message-ID but when I try to re-index all messages with FTS flatcurve the fts-flatcurve/ folder inside the Maildir/ become huge. Taking for example a Maildir with cur folder of 1.1G the related fts-flatcurve folder passed from 140M to 2.2G. After remove fts_header_excludes/includes config options, and re-index all messages, the fts-flatcurve/ size return to normal size. Is an issue? Thanks -- Alessio Cecchi Postmaster @http://www.qboxmail.it https://www.linkedin.com/in/alessice

Does disabling POP3 just mean removing it from the `protocols` list?
by Sean McBride 02 Mar '22

02 Mar '22

Hi all, Hopefully a simple question. If I want to disable POP3 support (because everyone is using IMAP anyway), it is just a matter of removing `pop3` from the `protocols` setting in dovecot.conf? Are there side effects or other considerations I should be aware of? Thanks, Sean

multiple doveadm ports?
by Joachim Lindenberg 02 Mar '22

02 Mar '22

Hello, I am trying to add another doveadm listener but am struggling with that. The primary reason is that I want to enable replication between two systems and want the replication to be encrypted using TLS. However there are also other doveadm clients locally that are not using TLS and I don´t want to touch all of them. I tried to define something like service doveadm { inet_listener { port = 2425 } inet_listener { port = 2426 ssl = true } } But didn´t get that to work. Is that not possible? I also tried service doveadm { inet_listener { port = 2425 } inet_listener http { port = 2426 ssl = yes } } but then I failed with plugin { mail_replica = https:dove2.example.com:2426 } Can someone please share what is supported and what not, or any pointer to documentation that does? Thanks a lot! Regards, Joachim

Apple Mail behaviour: can not create sub-folders
by Joseph Tam 02 Mar '22

02 Mar '22

One of my Apple Mail users recently complained his mail reader couldn't create sub-folders -- he could only create top-level folders. Playing around with this, I discovered that I could create folders ( as opposed to mialboxes) *if* I specified mailbox name with a trailing slash. Has anyone come across this? Is this related to https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/mail_location/mbox/mboxchildfo… ? Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

Custom Authentication Method
by Matthew R 01 Mar '22

01 Mar '22

Hi guys, we're using Dovecot/Postfix here for our mail system. I'd like to switch the `passdb` authentication on Dovecot from PAM over to a custom implementation. We'd prefer to have some sort of script check the password with an external IAM provider via HTTP. Is there any way we can accomplish this? The idea is to have Dovecot somehow call a script or send a username/password to some service, which checks the username/password against the identity provider and returns a "yes/no" back to Dovecot. `checkpassword` seems like it may work but I see no documentation on its API.

General Locking & Replication Issues
by Paul Kudla (Scom.ca Internet Services Inc.) 01 Mar '22

01 Mar '22

Ok I am running two dovecot servers and feel pretty close to getting things resolved config wise there are however 2 or 3 issues that all seem to be related i have enclosed FULL config files for both mail18.scom.ca & mail19.scom.ca I have a private network that is used for the replication (10.221.0.0/24) - port 12345 is blocked by pf firewall from outside. I am running freebsd 12.1 and built one server and then raid copied it to the second (mail19) so all the ports / builds etc are identical I did start with dovecot-2.3.14 but pigeonhole would not build on freebsd (thanks for that advice / reply )until upgrade to dovecot-2.3.18 dovecot-2.3.18 was built and installed on both servers along with a good build (freebsd build error was fixed after upgrading) dovecot-2.3-pigeonhole-0.5.18 please note that the second mailserver (mail19) is on an nfs share dedicated to the server (i am awaiting sdram drives to replace this issue) but since i am getting errors on both servers i feel nfs share is not the issue (and yes i enabled dlock) mail18 is on normal sdram drives (more of an fyi as i dont think this is the issue) neither mail server is connected to the other in any kind of a shared way - other then replication postfix should be delivering via : pipe -n dovecot -t unix flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient} Replication only works properly at startup (ie the mail boxes do sync), afterwhich nothing seems to trigger the differences between the servers to update (notify i believe) manually running : [05:04:46] mail18.scom.ca [root:0] /usr/local/etc/dovecot # doveadm sync -u paul(a)scom.ca remote:10.221.0.19 & [05:21:18] mail19.scom.ca [root:0] /usr/local/etc/dovecot # doveadm sync -u paul(a)scom.ca remote:10.221.0.18 does seem to work but with mixed results. I also included postfix main.cf & master.cf as well as some googling has indicated the file locking may be on the postfix side ?? Also more then happy to donate just can not figure out how ??? so that being said : General logging errors are as follows ?

Hi folks, just step into another problem and don't know why? If i try to configure dovecot with the following: > ./configure --prefix=/test/core/dovecot --with-ssldir=/test/core/dovecot/tls --with-mysql i get > ... > checking for auth_userokay... no > checking for mysql_config... NO > checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... noconfigure: error: Can't build with MySQL support: libmysqlclient not found After that i've tried to configure with following: > LDFLAGS="-L/test/core/mariadb/lib" ./configure --prefix=/test/core/dovecot --with-ssldir=/test/core/dovecot/tls --with-mysql but with same result. The Content of "/test/core/mariadb/lib" is: libmariadbclient.a libmariadb.so -> libmariadb.so.3 libmariadb.so.3 libmysqlclient.a -> libmariadbclient.a libmysqlclient_r.a -> libmariadbclient.a libmysqlclient_r.so -> libmariadb.so.3 libmysqlclient.so -> libmariadb.so.3 libmysqlservices.a pkgconfigplugin Also the Path "/test/core/mariadb/lib/pkgconfig" is in the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable and the Library-Path "/test/core/mariadb/lib" is known by the dynamic linker (/etc/ld.so.conf.d/mylibs.conf). So what am i doing wrong? My Dovecot version: 2.3.18 My Mariadb version: 10.6.5 My OS: Ubuntu 20.04

email location - files or sql
by Robert Moskowitz 25 Feb '22

25 Feb '22

I have been running a Dovecot based mail server for over 10 years and it is time (really past) to upgrade. I really don't want to roll my own anymore. Too much time and too many skills needed. Time to retire. But still want it 'in-house'. What I am seeing is that many of the packages seem to roll the messages into some SQL database. My Dovecot setup uses the /home/vmail/doman/../{cur,new,etc} tree structure. Is there any pros vs cons on this that I can read? Is there some nice packed mailserver I can drop on a Centos-arm server that has Dovecot under the covers and I can easily rsync my current mail store to it? Mail-in-a-box looks interesting. But I have not figured out its internals and if I have to worry about anything compiled for arm that is not part of the distro. Thanks in advance for help.

Messages reappearing in mailboxes as duplicates
by Andrew Skipper 23 Feb '22

23 Feb '22

Hello, We have 3 nodes running, with a two way replication between 2 of them and a 1 way replication to a DR node running off one. We use mdbox, and directors to split traffic across nodes. There is no shared file system. Users are experiencing messages reappearing in their INBOX as unread with duplicate GUID and message headers. This occurs generally several days after a message was first received (and often actioned; read, moved, trashed, expunged, also often bulk moved/deleted). We have attempted to remove replication from the equation by cutting down to one single node with all replication disabled which did not have any impact. We have also started regular cache and mailbox purging. There are no logged events when mail items reappear, and we only observe it based on user report, mailbox inspection (doveadm looking for duplicate GUIDs/unique message headers) or seeing IMAP commands being done against the same message twice (e.g. monday they copy to trash, delete and expunge from inbox, delete and expunge from trash, then the next monday they will have to do the same for the reappearing message).

postfix, dovecot-lda, /run/dovecot/stats-writer socket permision and local user delivery, again
by Michael Tokarev 22 Feb '22

22 Feb '22

Hi! There are many questions on the 'net about the same theme: lda(mjt): Error: net_connect_unix(/run/dovecot/stats-writer) failed: Permission denied dovecot-lda is run from postfix as mailbox_command for local users. There's even a suggestion on dovecot wiki to make dovecot-lda setgid (to mail) - for a different reason but people use this trick to shut this error message up. See eg the last message at https://forum.zentyal.org/index.php?topic=35236.0 which points to https://wiki2.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix . But the thing is: mail delivery stops right after making dovecot-lda setgid, like this: Feb 22 00:06:46 tsrv dovecot: lda(mjt)<253650><s+nnHub+E2LS3gMA7tuOMA>: \ Fatal: setresgid(914(dovecot),914(dovecot),8(mail)) failed with euid=1000(mjt): \ Operation not permitted why the hell lda tries to setuid to dovecot user? It will definitely unable to write to the maildir since it is owned by user mjt, not by user dovecot! And I *only* made it setgid, not setuid. How to use dovecot-lda together with postfix, after all? Thanks, /mjt

/usr/libexec/dovecot/anvil crashes immediately
by Friedrich Kink 21 Feb '22

21 Feb '22

Dear list, I built a dovecot package for openindiana (which is a Solaris derivative) from latest version 2.3.18. Everything compiles and builds fine without any issue. Even subsequent installation and startup of main dovecot process works as expected. But execution of /usr/libexec/dovecot/anvil immediately crashes. To get some more meaningful backtrace I compiled with -g. Below some facts of my environment and a backtrace. Maybe some of you are more familiar with this kind of issue as I, and can give some hint or share ideas how to nail down the problem. Or can it be a configuration issue? BTW it is running in a so-called zone.
