[Dovecot] Dovecot Listescape plugin problem
by vupibi 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

Dovecot Version: 2.0.19 I'm on Ubuntu 12.04.3 using Zentyal with Dovecot for a mail Server. What I try to setup is the possibility to use slashes ("/") in folder names inside the IMAP account. Regularly if I name a folder "foo/bar", the system creates me a folder named "bar" inside a folder named "foo". Listescape should give me the possibility but it does not work. It's not possible for me to write inside the "/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf" because Zentyal will overwrite all changes when restarting the server. So my Configs are in "/etc/dovecot/extra.conf" and look like this: mail_plugins = listescape (i tried "mail_plugins = $mail_plugins listescape" as well, no success) namespace inbox { separator = "\\" prefix = inbox = yes hidden = no list = yes location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n:LAYOUT=fs } My dovecot -n output # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-55-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS ext4 auth_gssapi_hostname = mailand.sxps.local auth_krb5_keytab = /etc/dovecot/dovecot.keytab auth_mechanisms = gssapi plain first_valid_gid = 116 first_valid_uid = 108 log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_gid = 116 mail_home = /var/vmail/sieve/%d/%u mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%$ mail_plugins = listescape mail_uid = 108 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 namespace inbox { hidden = no inbox = yes list = yes location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n:LAYOUT=fs prefix = separator = \ } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf driver = ldap } plugin { autocreate = Trash autocreate2 = Spam autocreate3 = Sent autocreate4 = Drafts autosubscribe = Trash autosubscribe2 = Spam autosubscribe3 = Sent autosubscribe4 = Drafts quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=0 sieve = /var/vmail/sieve/%d/%u/sieve-script sieve_global_path = /var/vmail/sieve/default.sieve sieve_storage = /var/vmail/sieve/%d/%u } protocols = pop3 imap sieve service auth { executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/auth unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-master { group = ebox mode = 0600 user = ebox } user = dovecot } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 } } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 110 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 995 } } ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/ssl/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/ssl/dovecot.pem userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf driver = ldap } protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota imap_quota autocreate } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = quota } protocol lda { auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mail_plugins = sieve quota postmaster_address = admin(a)sxps.eu } Any Ideas? -- View this message in context: http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/Dovecot-Listescape-plugin-problem-tp45… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Experience with ALTStorage on NFS mount
by Urban Loesch 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

Hi, we are thinking about storing older mails (eg. safed before 6 months) to an alternative storage mounted via NFS from an external storage box. Some technical details - the storage will be connected via 1 gbit ethernet. Access will be allowed from different dovecot servers, but only to divided directories for each dovecot. - storage has the option to use RAID 5 or 6. Max. amount of Disks are 15. - the index files and the primary storage are just divided in two different directories and are stored local on SAS disks with RAID 10 - current mail_location config is: mdbox:/home/vmail/%d/%n:INDEX=/home/dovecotindex/%d/%n - future mail_location config shoudl look like: mdbox:/home/vmail/%d/%n:INDEX=/home/dovecotindex/%d/%n:ALT=/home/extstorage/vmail/%d/%n My question is, if someone of you have already experience in such a setup with NFS? And are there some tuning tips for NFS? We have not many experience with NFS right now. Or perhaps is there some better solution? Many thanks and regards Urban

A database is a database, a master is a master, and a slave is a slave our mysql has never had problem, not a single one, its why I'm so annoyed dovecot is talking to master when it doesn't need to

[Dovecot] I wrote CheckPassword Shell example for Dovecot
by Nicolay Vizovitin 18 Nov '13

18 Nov '13

Hello, Seeing as there are not too many Dovecot CheckPassword driver usage examples on the Internet, I wrote one using Shell script. You can see post about it here: http://devblog.plesk.com/2013/11/shell-checkpassword-authentication-in-dove…. The post also has a link to Mercurial repository with the example. Feel free to use the example as you see fit. You may even include it into documentation (or link to it), if you'd like. Thanks for such great software as Dovecot! -- Best regards, Nick

Anyway I?ve noticed once that 10.9 Mail didn?t show some of my mails until I restarted it. Then there are several other annoying bugs.. I really shouldn?t have upgraded yet. We are running Dovecot 2.0.12, and I already have the Mavericks Mail patch of a few days ago. Still requires a restart to get new mail.

[Dovecot] Issue with Mavericks Mail Client
by Ken Mandelberg 17 Nov '13

17 Nov '13

We run a dovecot mailserver. One of the clients I use is a Mac Laptop. Recently I upgraded from Mountain Lion (10.8) to Mavericks (10.9). Under 10.8 it worked fine. On 10.9 it syncs up when I invoke the client, but after a while stops getting updates. Most of my mail clients are on Linux (thunderbird) or Android (K9) and I admit that several run against my very large INBOX simultaneously. The one of the 10.9 Mac laptop is the only one with this issue. Is there something known about the new 10.9 Mail client on the Mac that would lose sync against dovecot?

Yes, it does. I wish the documentation on the Wiki was easier to find gems like this. Thank You!

[Dovecot] PAM and user@domain login?
by Larry Rosenman 16 Nov '13

16 Nov '13

Is there a way with 2.2.6 to have the system do a PAM login for user when presented with login user@domain pass from the IMAP services? I have a stupid android client that wants to use user@domain but doesn't have an option to pass just user.....

[Dovecot] Replication Setup
by springy 16 Nov '13

16 Nov '13

Hi, I am attempting to setup replication between two hosts running Centos 6.4 and Dovecot 2.2.5. My users are real unix users, so I am trying to run the replication as root user, so that it has the appropriate permissions to run. I have two users at present syd1 and syd2, and the two hosts are called syd1 and syd2 as well. When I start Dovecot with the settings below, nothing happens, and the two mailboxes remain un-synced. There are no errors in the log, just Dovecot starting successfully. I have attempted to run the dsync command manually from syd1: ssh -q -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -i /home/vmail/.ssh/id_ecdsa root@syd2 doveadm dsync-server -usyd1 and I get the following in response, but this might be normal: VERSION dsync 3 1 Hhostname sync_ns_prefix sync_box sync_box_guid sync_type debug sync_visible_namespaces exclude_mailboxes send_mail_requests backup_send backup_recv lock_timeouno_mail_sync no_backup_overwrite Smailbox_guid last_uidvalidity last_common_uid last_common_modseq last_common_pvt_modseq changes_during_sync Nname existence mailbox_guid uid_validity uid_next last_renamed_or_created subscribed last_subscription_change Dhierarchy_sep mailboxes dirs unsubscribes Bmailbox_guid uid_validity uid_next messages_count first_recent_uid highest_modseq highest_pvt_modseq mailbox_lost cache_fields have_guids have_save_guids Atype key value stream deleted last_change modseq Ctype uid guid hdr_hash modseq pvt_modseq save_timestamp add_flags remove_flags final_flags keywords_reset keyword_changes Rguid uid Mguid uid pop3_uidl pop3_order received_date stream cname decision last_used .
