Dovecot proxy: per user/domain 'namespace/inbox/prefix' from MySQL
by Adi Pircalabu 15 Nov '18

15 Nov '18

As a way to try and avoid using "prefix = INBOX." ad infinitum for the inbox namespace, I'm looking for ways to move on to "prefix =" for new mail accounts, and grandfather the existing ones. Previously running Courier-IMAP, now Dovecot, I looked at https://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces#Backwards_Compatibility:_Courier_IMAP and decided it's too risky to go down that path and use namespace compat, with so many IMAP clients out there the scope of testing is huge and the outcome is uncertain and not worth it. After reading https://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces#Per-user_Namespace_Location_From_SQL I thought I might be able to overwrite the server configuration per user returning 'namespace/inbox/prefix' value from SQL. Here's the setup I attempted, briefly: 1. Client connects to the Dovecot proxy, which authenticates the user and proxies to the backend using a query like this in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/dovecot-sql.conf.ext: driver = mysql connect = <connection_string> password_query = SELECT NULL AS password, 'Y' as nopassword, host, 'any-cert' as 'starttls', 'Y' AS proxy FROM mailbox WHERE email = '%u' AND disabled_smtpauth=0 Works a treat. 2. Next, I'm trying to add the prefix lookup in the picture. In the same file I've added: user_query = SELECT ns_inbox_prefix AS 'namespace/inbox/prefix' FROM mailbox WHERE email = '%u' AND disabled_smtpauth=0 3. The mailbox table schema reads: CREATE TABLE `mailbox` ( `id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `email` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `password` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `clear_password` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `host` varchar(32) DEFAULT NULL, `port` varchar(32) DEFAULT NULL, `ns_inbox_prefix` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `lastlog_remote_ips` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, `curlog_remote_ips` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, `disabled_smtpauth` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0, `last_modified` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT current_timestamp() ON UPDATE current_timestamp(), PRIMARY KEY (`id`), UNIQUE KEY `email` (`email`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=1 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; The 2 queries above return: MariaDB [postfix]> SELECT NULL AS password, 'Y' as nopassword, host, 'any-cert' as 'starttls', 'Y' AS proxy FROM mailbox WHERE email = 'adi2(a)0aditest.local' AND disabled_smtpauth=0; +----------+------------+----------------+----------+-------+ | password | nopassword | host | starttls | proxy | +----------+------------+----------------+----------+-------+ | NULL | Y | 192.168.123.24 | any-cert | Y | +----------+------------+----------------+----------+-------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) MariaDB [postfix]> SELECT ns_inbox_prefix AS 'namespace/inbox/prefix' FROM mailbox WHERE email = 'adi2(a)0aditest.local' AND disabled_smtpauth=0; +------------------------+ | namespace/inbox/prefix | +------------------------+ | | +------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) After reloading dovecot service with auth_debug = yes are the maillog for an IMAP session: Nov 15 12:43:48 proxy1 dovecot: auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth Nov 15 12:43:48 proxy1 dovecot: auth: Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth/lib20_auth_var_expand_crypt.so Nov 15 12:43:48 proxy1 dovecot: auth: Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth/libdriver_mysql.so Nov 15 12:43:48 proxy1 dovecot: auth: Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth/libdriver_sqlite.so Nov 15 12:43:48 proxy1 dovecot: auth: Debug: Read auth token secret from /var/run/dovecot/auth-token-secret.dat Nov 15 12:43:48 proxy1 dovecot: auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=7527) Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: auth: Debug: client in: AUTH#0111#011PLAIN#011service=imap#011secured#011session=AorrLqp6drgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAB#011lip=::1#011rip=::1#011lport=1143#011rport=47222#011resp=<hidden> Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: auth: Debug: sql(adi2@0aditest.local,::1,<AorrLqp6drgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAB>): cache miss Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: auth-worker(7533): Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: auth-worker(7533): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth/lib20_auth_var_expand_crypt.so Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: auth-worker(7533): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth/libdriver_mysql.so Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: auth-worker(7533): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/auth/libdriver_sqlite.so Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: auth-worker(7533): Debug: sql(adi2@0aditest.local,::1,<AorrLqp6drgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAB>): query: SELECT NULL AS password, 'Y' as nopassword, host, 'any-cert' as 'starttls', 'Y' AS proxy FROM mailbox WHERE email = 'adi2(a)0aditest.local' AND disabled_smtpauth=0 Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: auth: Debug: client passdb out: OK#0111#011user=adi2@0aditest.local#011host=192.168.123.24#011starttls=any-cert#011proxy#011pass=<hidden> Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: imap-login: Invalid certificate: [...] Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: imap-login: Invalid certificate: [...] Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: imap-login: Invalid certificate: [...] Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: imap-login: Invalid certificate: [...] Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: imap-login: Invalid certificate: [...] Nov 15 12:43:53 proxy1 dovecot: imap-login: proxy(adi2(a)0aditest.local): started proxying to 192.168.123.24:143: user=<adi2(a)0aditest.local>, method=PLAIN, rip=::1, lip=::1, secured, session=<AorrLqp6drgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAB> Looks like user_query isn't executed, why?

Is user_query working in this context? -- Adi Pircalabu

autoexpunged in IMAP logout format
by Alessio Cecchi 14 Nov '18

Hi, in my imap_logout_format I register %{deleted} %{expunged} %{trashed} but now I saw that is available also %{autoexpunged}. Is necessary to add also %{autoexpunged} in logout format to have the count of all deleted email via IMAP?

execute sieve command - fails to notice script has exited
by Lionel Elie Mamane 13 Nov '18

13 Nov '18

Hi, Running dovecot 2.2.27 (c0f36b0) on Debian GNU/Linux stable (version 9.6), I'm trying to use the execute command in a sieve script, with direct execution (not service socket). The script is executed, and returns (the process exits), but the dovecot-lda process seems to not notice, and thinks the script did not terminate. After sieve_execute_exec_timeout has passed, it sends a TERM, a bit later a KILL and then logs a failure. The "ps -Af f" looks like: S 0:00 \_ /usr/sbin/exim4 -Mc 1gMazS-0007IV-RB S 0:00 \_ /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f master(a)blitz.conuropsis.org Z 0:00 | \_ [foofilter] <defunct> S 0:00 \_ /usr/sbin/exim4 -Mc 1gMazS-0007IV-RB The dovecot debug log looks like: lda(user): Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules lda(user): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib90_sieve_plugin.so lda(user): Debug: Effective uid=1000, gid=1000, home=/home/user lda(user): Debug: maildir++: root=/home/user/Maildir, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=/home/user/Maildir, alt= lda(user): Debug: userdb lookup skipped, username taken from USER environment lda(user): Debug: none: root=, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=, alt= lda(user): Debug: Destination address: user(a)blitz.conuropsis.org (source: user@hostname) lda(user): Debug: sieve: Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) initializing lda(user): Debug: sieve: include: sieve_global is not set; it is currently not possible to include `:global' scripts. lda(user): Debug: sieve: Sieve imapsieve plugin for Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) loaded lda(user): Debug: sieve: Sieve Extprograms plugin for Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) loaded lda(user): Debug: sieve: file storage: Using active Sieve script path: /data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve lda(user): Debug: sieve: file storage: Using script storage path: /home/user/sieve lda(user): Debug: sieve: file storage: Relative path to sieve storage in active link: sieve/ lda(user): Debug: sieve: file storage: Using Sieve script path: /data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve lda(user): Debug: sieve: file script: Opened script `test-foofilter' from `/data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve' lda(user): Debug: sieve: Using the following location for user's Sieve script: /data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve lda(user): Debug: Mailbox stdin: Opened mail UID=1 because: header Message-ID (Cache file is unusable) lda(user): Debug: sieve: Opening script 1 of 1 from `/data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve' lda(user): Debug: sieve: Loading script /data/home/user/.dovecot.sieve lda(user): Debug: sieve: Script binary /data/home/user/.dovecot.svbin successfully loaded lda(user): Debug: sieve: binary save: not saving binary /data/home/user/.dovecot.svbin, because it is already stored lda(user): Debug: sieve: Executing script from `/data/home/user/.dovecot.svbin' lda(user): Debug: sieve: action execute: running program: foofilter lda(user): Debug: Mailbox stdin: Opened mail UID=1 because: mail stream lda(user): Debug: waiting for program `/usr/local/lib/dovecot/sieve-execute/foofilter' to finish after 0 msecs lda(user): Debug: program `/usr/local/lib/dovecot/sieve-execute/foofilter'(24669) execution timed out after 2000 milliseconds: sending TERM signal lda(user): Debug: program `/usr/local/lib/dovecot/sieve-execute/foofilter' (24669) did not die after 5000 milliseconds: sending KILL signal and an strace on the dovecot-lda process shows it is in an "epoll_wait(9 ....".

Proxy + 2x static passdb not working as expected
by Michael Goth 13 Nov '18

13 Nov '18

Hi all, I'm trying to setup a Dovecot proxy that authenticates the user against two backend servers. If login server1 fails, server2 should be tried. The problem: Only the first server seems to be tried, even if the login fails. Config snippet: protocol imap { passdb { driver = static args = proxy=y nopassword=y host=oldserver1.example.com port=993 ssl=y } passdb { driver = static args = proxy=y nopassword=y host=oldserver2.example.com port=993 ssl=y } } With this config, only accounts on oldserver1.example.com can login. If I reverse the two passdb entries, only accounts on oldserver2.example.com can login. I've done the same with SQL passdb first + static passdb second. That worked as expected. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Attached is the output of doveconf -n Thanks Michael Mit freundlichen Grüßen -- Michael Goth .webflow GmbH Geschäftsführer: Andreas Schrei Wasserburger Straße 4 D - 83352 Altenmarkt a. d.

dsync / doveadm sync problem
by admin＠awib.it 13 Nov '18

13 Nov '18

Hi, I had an old dovecot server with a working backup script. Basic concept was: - to dsync to a temp folder - using tar to preserve datetime - piping this 7z to benefit from my 16 core cpu - piping this through openssl to encrypt Over time the size of all my mail grew from 3GB to about 70GB. I used to keep the last 14 backups, but this uses a lot of space. I now want to dsync my Maildir onto my NAS via NFS and use the backup tool provided by Synology to have incremental compressed backup. However I cannot get dsync to run. root@mail:/mnt/backup_mail# dsync -f -u USER@DOMAIN backup maildir:/mnt/backup_mail/MAILSERVER_FQDN/DOMAIN/USER/mail dsync(USER@DOMAIN): Error: User initialization failed: Namespace '': stat(/mnt/backup_mail/MAILSERVER_FQDN/DOMAIN/USER/mail) failed: Permission denied (euid=1001(vmail) egid=1001(vmail) missing +x perm: /mnt/backup_mail, UNIX perms appear ok (ACL/MAC wrong?)) root@mail:/mnt/backup_mail# dsync -u USER@DOMAIN backup maildir:/mnt/backup_mail/MAILSERVER_FQDN/DOMAIN/USER/mail dsync(USER@DOMAIN): Error: User initialization failed: Namespace '': stat(/mnt/backup_mail/MAILSERVER_FQDN/DOMAIN/USER/mail) failed: Permission denied (euid=1001(vmail) egid=1001(vmail) missing +x perm: /mnt/backup_mail, dir owner missing perms) ——— Error message changed after removing „-f“. I then applied the folder permissions (chmod +x backup_mail/) and I get a different error: root@mail:/mnt/backup_mail# dsync -f -u USER@DOMAIN backup maildir:/mnt/backup_mail/MAILSERVER_FQDN/DOMAIN/USER/mail dsync(USER@DOMAIN): Error: User initialization failed: namespace configuration error: All list=yes namespaces must use the same separator I found something about the namespace issue, but did not quite understand I guess. (separators seem to differ) From doveconf -n: [...] namespace { list = children location = maildir:/var/vmail/mailboxes/%%d/%%n/Maildir:INDEXPVT=~/Maildir/shared/%%u prefix = shared/%%u/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = shared } namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { auto = subscribe special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox Spam { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 30 days special_use = \Junk } mailbox Trash { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 183 days special_use = \Trash } prefix = } […] ——— However I only set up the namespace for inbox. root@mail:/mnt/backup_mail# doveconf namespace gives namespace { disabled = no hidden = no ignore_on_failure = no inbox = no list = children location = maildir:/var/vmail/mailboxes/%%d/%%n/Maildir:INDEXPVT=~/Maildir/shared/%%u order = 0 prefix = shared/%%u/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = shared } namespace inbox { disabled = no hidden = no ignore_on_failure = no inbox = yes list = yes location = mailbox Drafts { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 0 autoexpunge_max_mails = 0 comment = driver = special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 0 autoexpunge_max_mails = 0 comment = driver = special_use = \Sent } mailbox Spam { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 60 days autoexpunge_max_mails = 0 comment = driver = special_use = \Junk } mailbox Trash { auto = subscribe autoexpunge = 60 days autoexpunge_max_mails = 0 comment = driver = special_use = \Trash } order = 0 prefix = separator = subscriptions = yes type = private } I guess here we see the config including defaults. Well… I think I only need the inbox namespace either way, so I tried: root@mail:/mnt/backup_mail# dsync -f -u USER@DOMAIN backup maildir:/mnt/backup_mail/MAILSERVER_FQDN/DOMAIN/USER/mail/ -n inbox dsync-local(USER@DOMAIN): Error: read(remote) failed: EOF (version not received) doveadm(USER@DOMAIN): Fatal: execvp(maildir:/mnt/backup_mail/MAILSERVER_FQDN/DOMAIN/USER/mail/) failed: No such file or directory dsync-local(USER@DOMAIN): Error: Remote command process isn't dying, killing it dsync-local(USER@DOMAIN): Error: kill(15306, SIGKILL) failed: Operation not permitted The folder (mnt/backup_mail/MAILSERVER_FQDN/DOMAIN/USER/mail) however does exist. Can anybody tell me if there is something I miss? Thanks in advance! -M

I lost the whole maildir from my server fro 3 users. They all have iPhones with all the messages safely stored on the Apple Mail app on their phone. There is no way to export them/move them. Is there a way to get Dovecot to just download all the messages and folder structure from the client and restore it on the server? Your help is very very much appreciated. Thanks, ttyllc

Seen-Flag and Virtual
by Dieter Knopf 12 Nov '18

12 Nov '18

Hello, We have a very large folder structure (in a public namespace) on our Dovecot server and would now like to create a virtual folder containing all mails of the publick namespace. This worked quite well with dovecot-virtual, but the read status (\seen) is not preserved. i.e. when I read a mail inside the virtual folder, the read status does not affect the original mail. Dovecut was configured with per-user \seen-flag. Is it possible to synchronize the \seen-flag somehow? Thanks Dieter

moving only new mails from one server to another
by Nicolas 12 Nov '18

12 Nov '18

Hello, I think it is not really the right place to post about that, but lot of dovecot experts there ;) Basically, I have a server with dovecot 2.2.9 that has new (unread) mails (because of a bad DNS config at a migration time). Is there an easy way to move only these unread mails to a another server ? (no perms trouble here : all vmail:vmail) Though to iterate through all /var/vmail/*/*/Maildir/new and scp/rsync them. Would that work ? Thanks in advance for your time. Nicolas

Hi, is it, somehow, possible to distinguish between multiple simultaneous logins in MailLog plugin? For example, which login deleted which message. Is that p[lugin able to log e.g. session ID? azur

Dovecot mail-crypt plugin
by Anushka Uditha Bandara 07 Nov '18

07 Nov '18

I configured an email solution using dovecot and postfix and it is working fine. Now I am working for mail encryption. Is it enough to set below configurations on dovecot for mail encryption. Because dovecot wiki is little bit confusing to me. "mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_crypt mail_attribute_dict = file:%h/Maildir/dovecot-attributes plugin { mail_crypt_curve = <some curve you like> mail_crypt_save_version = 2 }" I am stuck in here. Thank you in advance, Anushka Bandara

LMTP with many aliases and replication
by Sean Greenslade 07 Nov '18

07 Nov '18

Hi, all. I'm currently in the process of rethinking / tinkering with my personal mail server. I've hit a few stumbling blocks that make me think I may be approaching this problem from the wrong angle. I have a large number of email addresses across several domains that all alias to the same inbox. In my current setup, postfix handles the aliases and dumps them all into a single "receiving" maildir, which gets processed by a custom python script to sort into one of several destination maildirs handled by dovecot. In evaluating this system, I'd like to move to using sieve for this sorting step, so (according to the docs) I need to use LMTP. This is my first stumble. Since I use so many aliases, my IMAP login username is not my email address. In fact, I have several IMAP usernames with different passwords pointing to the same maildir so that my phone can use a different password than my PC. The dovecot documentation was not very clear on how to make LMTP use a different userdb. I eventually found through some trial and error and some hints from other list threads that I could wrap a second userdb {} section with a protocol lmtp {} section, which seems to do the trick. I'd like to edit the wiki to include this helpful tidbit, but I find it odd that this isn't mentioned anywhere in the documentation for LMTP. Is it actually an intended feature? My second stumble is with the replicator plugin. I'd like to run two identical dovecot servers that replicate their mailboxes across each other. Since there are a large number of alias "accounts" that all feed into one IMAP account, the logical place to put the replication would be the IMAP account. But the way the replicator plugin seems to work, the trigger for synchronous replication on mail receipt fires on the LMTP "account" that received that particular message. Is there any way within dovecot to specify a different replication account to be triggered for sync? Like a userdb extra field or something? I'm trying to avoid needing external scripts if at all possible. I'm interested to hear people's thought / suggestions, especially if anyone has a better way of architecting this system. In case it's relevant, I'm running Arch Linux / Dovecot 2.3.3. Thanks, --Sean

Re: dovecot: imap Error: read : Broken pipe

I forgot to mention that if I transfer the mail to my Gmail or Outlook address I can download the attachments without any problem. More over I've completely removed the firewall server from the equation, I plugged the adsl line directly into the mail server and the problem is still there, so my guess is that the firewall isn't the problem here.

dovecot: imap Error: read : Broken pipe

Hi everyone, I'm trying to find a solution for this bug who appears 2 months ago : dovecot: imap(%USER%): Error: read(<binary stream of mailbox INBOX UID (%d)>) failed: Broken pipe (FETCH BINARY[2] for mailbox INBOX UID (%d) Where %USER% is the unix user and %d the UID of the mailbox. This error appears each time a user tries to download an attachment from one of his emails. Whether with RoundCube or Thunderbird via VPN or not. I thought that it was related to my firewall but no. Furthermore the problem isn't present when users are at the office. Upload speed from our ADSL connection is pretty slow about 1mpbs, I thought maybe it was related but it was working fine since 2 years. So I'm really short of ideas. Anyone could help me please ?

imap authentication - shadow vs mysql
by Konra Wawryn 05 Nov '18

05 Nov '18

Hi, I`m looking for some opinions about authentication process for the systems with more than 1000 E-mail accounts. Maybe some one could advise me what is the best authentication method. At the moment I`m storing all passwords in my /etc/passwd. My IMAP server is growing and I`m planning to build new host, my question is: what is the best authentication model for IMAP server ? Do I need to store all user/passwords in mysql or maybe in LDAP ? I`m searching for some solution which will help me to scale my system in the future. Maybe some one could advice me ? Greetings Konrad

OCSP Stapling and Certificate Transparency
by Felipe Gasper 31 Oct '18

31 Oct '18

Hi, For CAs that do not include a signed certificate timestamp in their newly-issued certificates, does Dovecot support either OCSP stapling or the Certificate Transparency TLS extension? If the TLS extension is supported, how does the admin configure the timestamp for each certificate? I’m wondering if any MUAs will follow Google’s lead and insist on CT. Thank you! -Felipe Gasper Mississauga, Ontario

Copying from a previous Dovecot server
by Peter Lindgren 31 Oct '18

31 Oct '18

Hello! I have installed a new dovecot server on a new server, using imap and Maildir. The old Maildirs are accessible on a mounted disk. I have tried to copy a few folders manually, by first creating the folder on the new server through the a-mail client, and then copying the contents of the cur folder from the old to the new. Works fine, but is a manual process. I'm looking for a way to script this. Is it safe to copy a template folder to a new folder, and then copy the cur folder contents? The files that Dovecot creates in an empty folder have different contents, will Dovecot update them when the user retrieves the mails in that folder? Or, can I just make a symlink to the old Maildir somewhere? Peter -- Peter Lindgren peter(a)norrskenkonsult.com 0703-393940

[dovecot quota-status] error "Invalid character in path"
by k675154＠keit.eu 31 Oct '18

31 Oct '18

Hello, I'm using using: - dovecot 2.3.3 (dcead646b) - postfix 3.3.1 - dovecot "quota = maildir:User quota" I'm facing the error: "quota-status: Error: quota-status: Client sent invalid recipient address: Invalid character in path" This occurred with this e-mail address: "John Smith"@keit.eu Well I know it is not a conventional address but it is normally perfectly authorized. When I disable quota check, I can received correctly the incoming e-mail. So is there a mean to enable quota check with this kind of e-mail address ? Thanks

Dovecot submission announces CHUNKING but backend Postfix does not support it
by Michael Goth 30 Oct '18

30 Oct '18

Hello, I'm setting up Dovecot 2.3.2.1 as a submission proxy to a Postfix backend server. Dovecot announces CHUNKING, but the Postfix backend does not support (or announce) it. HELO from Postfix: 220 backend.mydomain.com ESMTP Postfix (Ubuntu) ehlo test 250-backend.mydomain.com 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 104857600 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-STARTTLS 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-8BITMIME 250 DSN HELO from Dovecot proxy: 220 proxy.mydomain.com Dovecot ready. ehlo test 250-proxy.mydomain.com 250-8BITMIME 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN 250-BURL imap 250-CHUNKING 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-SIZE 250-STARTTLS 250 PIPELINING When a client sends BDAT, Postfix closes the connection. Here's a log snippet from Postfix: < MAIL FROM:<user(a)mydomain.com> > 250 2.1.0 Ok < RCPT TO:<some(a)recipient.com> > 250 2.1.5 Ok < BDAT 114098 LAST > 502 5.5.2 Error: command not recognized < Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=Apple-Mail-55D35F74-2EB7-4B3B-A607-E421DD71C07A > 221 2.7.0 Error: I can break rules, too. Goodbye. Apple Mail seems to ignore the fact that Postfix does not understand BDAT and Postfix does not like that :-) From a quick glance at the code it seems CHUNKING is always added to the capabilities and that's not configurable. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Michael

Request: option to hide user IP/HELO content from mail sent via submissiond
by Lee Maguire 30 Oct '18

30 Oct '18

For reasons of user privacy and security I usually configure submission servers to not include accurate IP address and HELO information of authenticated users. (Usually replacing it with a private-use domain / IPv6 address.) Dovecot submission (2.3.2) will produce a header something like this (where “10.22.36.10" is a public IP address) Received: from [192.168.1.184] ([10.22.36.10]) by x.example.com with ESMTPSA id xY/yDFD9yVtsFwAARu9lhg (envelope-from <test(a)example.com>) for <test(a)example.net>; Fri, 19 Oct 2018 18:50:40 +0100 It would be good if a local administrator could override the trace “from” content with syntactically valid, but privacy respecting, content. e.g. Received: from submission.local ([fdf7:c4e4:1c1e::10]) by x.example.com with ESMTPSA id xY/yDFD9yVtsFwAARu9lhg (envelope-from <test(a)example.com>) for <test(a)example.net>; Fri, 19 Oct 2018 18:50:40 +0100 RFC 5321 specifies that the “from” MUST exist but only specifies that the content SHOULD be the source host. (Assuming that Submission is “an SMTP environment”. RFC 6409 makes some provision for header rewriting to hide machine names. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6409#section-8.8 ) https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321#section-4.4 The FROM clause, which MUST be supplied in an SMTP environment, SHOULD contain both (1) the name of the source host as presented in the EHLO command and (2) an address literal containing the IP address of the source, determined from the TCP connection.

Problem with cached userdb info
by Ángel L. Mateo 30 Oct '18

30 Oct '18

Hi, I'm having a problem with my cached userdb information. These are my passdb and userdbs: passdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext } userdb { driver = prefetch } userdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-userdb.conf.ext } In /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-userdb.conf.ext (userdb) I have: user_attrs = =user=%{ldap:mail},=quota_rule=%{ldap:quota:*:storage=10G},=home_prefix=/mail/mailboxes/%L{domain},=index_prefix=/mail/indexes/%L{domain},=relpath=%2L{ldap:umServiceUniqueId}/%L{ldap:umServiceUniqueId},=uuid=%L{ldap:umPersonalUniqueId} user_filter = (&(objectClass=CourierMailAccount)(irisUserStatus=urn:mace:rediris.es:um.es:userstatus:correo:estado:activo)(irisMailhost=popimapclu11.um.es)(|(uid=%{auth_user})(mail=%{auth_user}))) and in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext (passdb) I have: pass_attrs = =userdb_user=%{ldap:mail},=userdb_quota_rule=%{ldap:quota:*:storage=10G},=userdb_home_prefix=/mail/mailboxes/%L{domain},=userdb_index_prefix=/mail/indexes/%L{domain},=userdb_relpath=%2L{ldap:umServiceUniqueId}/%L{ldap:umServiceUniqueId},=userdb_uuid=%L{ldap:umPersonalUniqueId},=uuid=%L{ldap:umPersonalUniqueId} pass_filter = (&(objectClass=CourierMailAccount)(irisUserStatus=urn:mace:rediris.es:um.es:userstatus:correo:estado:activo)(irisMailhost=popimapclu11.um.es)(|(uid=%u)(mail=%u))) The problem I have is that quota information is not updated when I changed in my ldap. These are the steps I'm running: 1. First, I check current quota (dovecot just restarted): amateo_adm@myotis60:/etc/dovecot/conf.d$ sudo doveadm user -f quota_rule angel.luis(a)um.es *:storage=2G in the log I get: Oct 29 14:29:46 myotis60 dovecot: auth: Debug: master in: USER#0111#011angel.luis(a)um.es#011service=doveadm#011debug Oct 29 14:29:46 myotis60 dovecot: auth: Debug: prefetch(angel.luis(a)um.es): passdb didn't return userdb entries, trying the next userdb Oct 29 14:29:46 myotis60 dovecot: auth: Debug: ldap(angel.luis(a)um.es): userdb cache miss Oct 29 14:29:46 myotis60 dovecot: auth: Debug: ldap(angel.luis(a)um.es): user search: base=ou=Usuarios,dc=Telematica scope=subtree filter=(&(objectClass=CourierMailAccount)(irisUserStatus=urn:mace:rediris.es:um.es:userstatus:correo:estado:activo)(irisMailhost=popimapclu11.um.es)(|(uid=angel.luis@um.es)(mail=angel.luis@um.es))) fields=mail,quota,umServiceUniqueId,umServiceUniqueId,umPersonalUniqueId Oct 29 14:29:46 myotis60 dovecot: auth: Debug: ldap(angel.luis(a)um.es): result: mail=angel.luis(a)um.es umServiceUniqueId=3aa35516-d2bd-11e8-8708-d0cb8a49c4ef umPersonalUniqueId=3aa34f3a-d2bd-11e8-8708-d0cb8a49c4ef quota=*:storage=2G; mail,umPersonalUniqueId,quota,umServiceUniqueId unused Oct 29 14:29:46 myotis60 dovecot: auth: Debug: ldap(angel.luis(a)um.es): result: mail=angel.luis(a)um.es umServiceUniqueId=3aa35516-d2bd-11e8-8708-d0cb8a49c4ef umPersonalUniqueId=3aa34f3a-d2bd-11e8-8708-d0cb8a49c4ef quota=*:storage=2G Oct 29 14:29:46 myotis60 dovecot: auth: Debug: userdb out: USER#0111#011angel.luis@um.es#011quota_rule=*:storage=2G#011home_prefix=/mail/mailboxes/um.es#011index_prefix=/mail/indexes/um.es#011relpath=3a/3aa35516-d2bd-11e8-8708-d0cb8a49c4ef#011uuid=3aa34f3a-d2bd-11e8-8708-d0cb8a49c4ef 2. Then I change user quota. 3. And later, I flush auth cache: amateo_adm@myotis60:/etc/dovecot/conf.d$ sudo doveadm auth cache flush angel.luis(a)um.es 0 cache entries flushed with debug log: Oct 29 14:31:00 myotis60 dovecot: auth: Debug: master in: CACHE-FLUSH#0111#011angel.luis(a)um.es 4.

clients out of sync after restoring backup
by Frank-Ulrich Sommer 30 Oct '18

30 Oct '18

Hi, due to a failing disk I had to restore everything from a backup including dovecot (2.2.22) and the Maildir containing the stored mails. A period of some days must later be restored manuall, but that is beyond scope for this question. Naturally this causes confusion for the clients as they keep mails that are no longer on the server. That was expected but what puzzles me is that mails arriving after the succesful restore are only sporadically detected by some clients (e.g. K9 and Thunderbird) that were connected before the crash. A client that was connected for the first time after restoring from the backup works exactly as expected. Might this situation lead to reusing UUIDs that some clients still remember as belonging to a different mail? Is there a clean solution for this on the server side or is it necessary to purge locally stored data by the clients (e.g. by temporarily removing account)?

Read the quota_exceeded_message from a file
by Maysara A. Abdulhaq 29 Oct '18

29 Oct '18

Greetings, I've been trying to have quota_exceeded_message read from a file according to https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration#Custom_Quota_Exceeded_Message ; I'm running dovecot 2.2.10 on Centos 7. If I set text right to the equal sign, it works fine, but I'd rather load it from a file as I need a new line and %n and \n and simple \ followed by a newline are not working and would understandably crash the processes if malformed. nothing special about my setting, the file is located in the /etc/dovecot directory but separate from the config files (not in the conf.d directory), with a world readable permission. Regards, M.

maildirlock time unit?
by Kris von Mach 27 Oct '18

27 Oct '18

What is the time unit maildirlock will accept? I've tried 20s, 20 sec, 20 secs, 20 seconds, all results in: Fatal: Invalid timeout value: 20s And if you don't specify time unit you just get: Panic: BUG: No IOs or timeouts set. Not waiting for infinity. This is on 2.3.3. 2.2 worked fine without needing time unit specified.

Submission and CHUNKING
by Paul Hecker 26 Oct '18

26 Oct '18

Hi, It seems that there is an issue with the submission service when the SMTP server advertises chunking (I use Exim v4.91). I tried this with Dovecot v2.3.3 and current master and could reproduce it with both versions. My setup is that dovecot submission proxies to Exim on port 10025. The first mail gets through without any issues, but the second email will not get send. I had this issue at first with Apple Mail (it just sends a QUIT and shows an error) and could reproduce it with the OpenDMARC report perl script. You can find a little Perl script attached to reproduce it. It seems to me that Dovecot sends an (unexpected or mixed up) second answer to the client. If I add a “$smtp->getline();” (line 110) sending multiple emails works again. Another workaround is to disable CHUNKING in Exim (in this case only on the “proxy port”): chunking_advertise_hosts = ${if eq{$received_port}{10025}{}{*}} Thanks, Paul

[sieve] Restrict redirects to only own domain
by Yassine Chaouche 26 Oct '18

26 Oct '18

Hello list, I'd like to let my colleagues redirect mail automatically (via a sieve filter) to other mailboxes within the same domain, but deny redirects to outside mailboxes (gmail, yahoo etc.) since this is considered bad practice and could lead to blacklisting (forwarding spam for example). If I set sieve_max_redirect to 0 then no redirect is allowed, at all. I wish to let redirects to internal mailboxes still possible. Ideas ? Yassine.
