[Dovecot] Mutually exclusive Exim setup instructions
by Karl Schmidt 12 Jun '08

12 Jun '08

The correct way has to be one or the other: http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Exim are mutually exclusive with http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/DebianStable It appears that exim can either call dovecot's LDA or make the delivery itself. There may be good reasons to do it one way or the other. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Karl Schmidt EMail Karl(a)xtronics.com Transtronics, Inc.

[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.1 rc9 compilation warnings
by Chris Wakelin 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

I've tried compiling 1.1.rc9 on everything to hand and I get various compilation warnings (but the compilation finishes). I don't know whether any of them are worth tracking down?

[Dovecot] Lucene index not updated when one saves a message from one folder to the other
by Asheesh Laroia 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

I'm running 1.1 rc8, and I enabled the Lucene indexes. I find that if a bunch of messages arrive in INBOX and I then move them to archive, the next time I do an X-TEXT-FAST search, Dovecot has to re-index the mails that I think it had indexed when they were in INBOX. This seems silly, since Dovecot was the one copying them (and then deleting, since that's what I mean by move). Will this change? -- Asheesh. -- Elliptic paraboloids for sale.

[Dovecot] EXPUNGE delay
by Eugene 09 Jun '08

Hi people! I just switched one of my servers from Courier to Dovecot. Planned to do it anyway but had to do it faster after the discovery that courier [the version I had installed, at least] returns malformed headers for a few messages, causing Outlook Express to completely ignore them.

More often than not, I have to press 'Purge' button two or more times in … [View More]order to actually remove the deleted messages. The fragment of Outlook's IMAP log is below.

And it does not return the same value than imap-quota. Is there a command, a tool, in Dovecot to get it? There is the maildirsize but it's very difficult to get the value with a script shell and with this file. Thanks for your help. Best regards, -- - Nicolas.

[Dovecot] Re maintenance of the dovecot-uidlist files
by Dann Daggett 04 Jun '08

04 Jun '08

Greetings all, I am new to dovecot, using ver 1.0.13 and IMAP with ~/Maildir delivery. I have noticed that the entries in the dovecot-uidlist files don't seem to get updated when an email is deleted or moved to .Trash. It appears that this list list would just keep growing over time, being full of no longer used filenames, and must tend to increase its processing overhead. I have also noticed that if I manually delete that file and the 3 other dovecot* files, that it gets rebuilt with only … [View More]

[Dovecot] How to set MDNSent flag on a large amount of mails?

Hi, after having moved a big mail archive to IMAP, I've now got the following problem: The MUA asks to send an MDN on all those old messages that contain the 'Disposition-Notification-To' header when opened. I'd like to set the $MDNSent flag on those (>10000 in a deeply nested directory structure) mails. After having read http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir I wrote a script that changed the filename of mails in all directories that contained the header, so that the filename … [View More]

[Dovecot] spamassassin, postfix with dovecot lda?
by George Mamalakis 03 Jun '08

03 Jun '08

Hi all, I am trying to setup a mail server using postfix (virtual_mailboxes), spamassassin and dovecot, along with SQL where appropriate. From my research so far I realized that, for several reasons, it is required for me to use dovecot LDA instead of maildrop, local, procmail or other alternatives. My configuration was working flawlessly, until spamassassin per-user configuration came to play. If I just wanted an MTA anti-spam gateway, I could directly call spamassassin via master.cf, … [View More]

[Dovecot] v1.1.rc6 released
by Timo Sirainen 03 Jun '08

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc6.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc6.tar.gz.sig This is it. The first v1.1 release that actually deserves the "release candidate" name. It contains everything I require from v1.1.0 release. There are two bugs left that I'd like to get fixed, but they won't block v1.1.0 release: * index_mailbox_set_recent_uid() assert (reported by Diego Liziero) * Maildir not always finding new messages and returning them as empty (… [View More]reported by Anders). The major change in v1.1.rc6 release is the SORT indexing half-rewrite. I hadn't much stress tested that code before, and once I started I just kept finding more and more weird bugs and it became extremely difficult to figure out how to fix them, so I finally decided to just redesign how it's supposed to work and then implemented that. The resulting sort code is a lot cleaner and it should also perform better (although it could still be improved a bit: the basic binary searching could be replaced with one that first binary searches between already-looked-up sort-strings and only after that binary searches the resulting space which requires slower sort-string lookups). Hopefully there are also no stupid bugs left like returning messages in wrong sort order. :) I've been wasting time this past week getting new stuff for my new apartment, but that's nearly done now. I think (hope) I'm going to be more productive in here, there are less neighbours behind walls/floors (just 1), so less potential for annoying noises. :) Thinking also seems to work better when there's more space to walk around. And finally, the changes since v1.1.rc5: * Index file format changed a bit. If an older Dovecot v1.1 reads index files updated by rc6+, they may give "Invalid header record size" or "ext reset: invalid record size" warnings. v1.0 won't give these errors. * IMAP: LIST .. RETURN (X-STATUS) command return now LIST entries before STATUS entries. * zlib plugin: Uncompress if the message begins with zlib header instead of looking at the 'Z' flag. This fixes copying with hard links. Based on a patch by Richard Platel. + IMAP: SORT index handling code was half-rewritten to fix several bugs when multiple sessions were sorting at the same time. The new code is hopefully also faster. + Maildir: If POP3 UIDL extra field is found from dovecot-uidlist, it's used instead of the default UIDL format (or X-UIDL: header). This allows easily preserving UIDLs when migrating from other POP3 servers. Patch by Nicholas Von Hollen @ Mailtrust. + Maildir: ,W=<vsize> is now always added to maildir filenames + deliver: Avoid reading dovecot-uidlist's contents if possible. + Added %T modifier = Trim whitespace from end of string - IMAP: Fixed some bugs in LIST-EXTENDED implementation. - IMAP: If client tries to change the selected mailbox state while another command is still running, wait until the command is finished. This fixes some crashes and other unwanted behavior. - allow_nets userdb setting was broken with big endian CPUs [View Less]

[Dovecot] overview of patches used in Fedora
by Dan Horák 03 Jun '08

Hi, I have gone through the patches that are used in the Fedora package and probably only the "mkcert-permissions" [1] can be considered to be included upstream. It is dated into package version 1.0-0.beta2.3, but I cannot find any particular reason for the inclusion (like a bug in bugzilla, etc.). Some (winbind support, quota warnings) were obsoleted by dovecot 1.1, two are used for distro specific settings. So the only real patch that remains is the "pam_setcred" [2] patch that fixes https://… [View More]

[Dovecot] Purging Deleted Messages

I noticed today I checked a users mailbox with the mutt command: mutt -f /home/bob/email/ There I saw he had 100 messages that had been deleted but not yet purged from his inbox so they're still using up disk storage on my email server. My question is does Dovecot have a process to automatically delete these messages after a certain period of time? I would like to think that they don't just sit in a users mailbox for years waiting to be purged, right? Does anyone know exactly how this works? … [View More]

[Dovecot] deliver saving mails with hard linking

http://dovecot.org/tmp/deliver-multiple.diff for Dovecot v1.1 implements -p <path> parameter for deliver, which reads the input mail from the specified path instead of stdin. With maildir and hardlink copying enabled, it also tries to hard link the file to destination instead of copying it.

Sometimes the compiled binary cannot read the existing and running config, the dovecot -n results in: ian:/opt/src/build/dovecot-1.1.rc7 # /opt/dovecot/sbin/dovecot -n # 1.1.rc7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf Error: Missing auth section for server default Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf The prebuild RPM-daemon (v 10.0.13) said: ian:/opt/src/build/dovecot-1.1.rc7 # dovecot -n #… [View More] 1.0.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf listen: *:8088 ssl_listen: *:10943 ssl_disable: yes ssl_cert_file: /etc/exim/www.foo-bar.de.crt ssl_key_file: /etc/exim/www.foo-bar.de.key disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap-login first_valid_uid: 98 mail_location: maildir:~/maildir mail_executable: /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap auth default: passdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf userdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf This looks fine and right, but there is no access to my old maildir (created by courier-imap) and I found several entries like this in my maillog: May 27 19:13:54 ian dovecot: IMAP(tkstest(a)foor-bar.de): Unexpected eof found when reading file 'UNOPENED' (Errcode: 0) or: May 27 16:22:44 ian dovecot: IMAP(tkstest(a)foo-bar.de): Corrupted transaction log file /var/spool/virtuser/xxxxx/mail/INBOX./.imap/Trash/dovecot.index.log: unexpected end of file while reading header or: May 27 18:05:44 ian dovecot: IMAP(tkstest(a)foo-bar.de): file mail-index.c: line 1 900 (mail_index_move_to_memory): assertion failed: (index->fd == -1) May 27 18:05:44 ian dovecot: IMAP(tkstest(a)foo-bar.de): Raw backtrace: imap [0x4648be] -> imap [0x4645fe] -> imap [0x443834] -> imap [0x450b08] -> imap(mail_index_open+0x1df) [0x444e6f] -> imap(index_storage_mailbox_init+0x159) [0x43c119] -> imap [0x41fe0d] -> imap [0x420ab8] -> imap(_cmd_select_full+0xaa) [0x4149ca] -> imap(cmd_select+0xb) [0x414b7b] -> imap [0x415e97] -> imap [0x415f29] -> imap(_client_input+0x6f) [0x4165cf] -> imap(io_loop_handler_run+0x101) [0x46a021] -> imap(io_loop_run+0x18) [0x4691f8] -> imap(main+0x457) [0x41e087] -> /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4) [0x2b5ab1476ae4] -> imap [0x411719] May 27 18:05:44 ian dovecot: child 15320 (imap) killed with signal 6 Tested versions: 1.0.13 RPM by OpenSUSE 1.0.13 self-compiled 1.1.rc7 self-compiled OS: Linux ian 2.6.18.8-0.9-default #1 SMP Sun Feb 10 22:48:05 UTC 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux configure: ./configure --prefix=/opt/dovecot --sysconfdir=/etc/dovecot --with-mysql --with-pop3d --with-notify=inotify --with-ioloop=epoll --with-sql CPPFLAGS='-fPIC -I/opt/mysql/include' LDFLAGS='-L/opt/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm' Any ideas?

[Dovecot] Dovecot hard link problem
by 도원철 01 Jun '08

01 Jun '08

My company recently changed mail server from cyrus to dovecot. The problem is that dovecot does not support hard links for message files with same message ID. I turned on the ‘maildir_copy_with_hardlinks’ option in dovecot.conf, but it does not seems to have relation to this problem, am I misunderstood? Hard links are created when move or copy messages from one folder to other folder, but when deliver creates messages this option does not works. Our mail storage will be exhausted in few … [View More]

[Dovecot] Segfault in imap_bodystructure_write when searching

Whenever I try to search on my dovecot test install, dovecot dies. It immediately spawns a new process, which the client tries to connect to, and send search commands to, causing that to die, and so forth. This loop means I have to kill either the server or the client. Running Dovecot 1.0.13 from/on Debian testing, rebuilt with vpopmail support and no other source changes. Vpopmail version is 5.4.25, latest stable.

[Dovecot] fetchmail on demand
by Graeme Vetterlein 31 May '08

I hoping this is an RTFM ... and somebody can point me at the correct 'FM' :-) I've just spent a while setting my new Debian , allways-on box in what I suspect is a generally useful configuration. I have fetchmail(1) collect mail from many mailboxes via pop3. I store these mails in different mboxs according to rules in procmail(1) I then offer these out to the household via imap in dovecot(1) . I have fetchmail(1) set to poll the ISPs every 5 minutes, this seems to work fine, but there … [View More]

[Dovecot] Sieve Editheader Extension?
by Michael K Sanders 31 May '08

31 May '08

I've done extensive searches, and there is virtually no information about actual implementations of the draft Sieve Editheader Extension (which provides 'addheader' and 'deleteheader' actions): http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sieve-editheader-11.txt Is anyone currently working on this for Dovecot Sieve? If not, are there any plans to do so? And before I start digging through the source, is the architecture amenable to this functionality? Thanks, :: Mike ::
