[Dovecot] Executing a wget? or clicking on a link in inbound email?
by Voytek 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

I use Dovecot, but all I know about Dovecot is that's it is an IMAP server, and, I know that it includes lots of other stuff that I see discussed on this list, but I know nothing about it. I have a situation that, maybe once a week, I get an html only email that contains 3 clickable links. I would like, on receipt of such email, auto click the first link (perhaps execute a wget to do so? or ?) Can something like this be done, which of the tools, what docs to look at? link is like so http://llll.domain.tld/irportal?id=a0000000006hWO4AAM0000000000KlOrcAAF1111… Dovecot 2.09 Centos (apologies for blank post I've just sent) -- Sent from Kaiten Mail. Please excuse my brevity.

[Dovecot] Autocreation of sieve filters
by Angel L. Mateo 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Hello, Is there any way to create a predefined sieve filters during mailbox autocreation? What I want is that my user's mailboxes are automatically created (using mailbox option in namespaces) but I want them to have a predefined sieve script. Using a postlogin script could be an idea, but I'd prefer an automatic one, because postlogin only will filter after first user login -- Angel L.

So, your in a blacklist as well? wouldnt have anything to do with your actions pretty much everywhere would it now, nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, of course not. Taking into account all of the above, I think its fair to say, its more than one person that doesn't like your foul mouthed antics, which was explained to you many times by fedora moderators, trying to get you to change, all you had to do, and they would remove moderation, but you refused, so you deserve it, no one else to blame but yourself YOU ARE NOT THE VICTIM >>> blocked using >>> bl.alt-backspace.org; This range is used by caustic Internet troll >>> Harald >>> Reindl h.reindl(a)thelounge.net / ACCESS DENIED - see >>> http://www.alt-backspace.org/usage.php#misc (in reply to RCPT TO >>> command) Awesome!

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.0.9 Quota Limit issues
by David Johnson 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Hello, I've tried searching for information regarding this problem but haven't found anything. Currently I have a Dovecot 2.0.9 with virtual users from a SQL table. Right now I'm only using global quota limits. Here is my quota setup: plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=3G quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M quota_rule3 = Archive:storage=+1G quota_rule4 = Archive/2013:storage=+1G quota_rule5 = Junk:ignore } According to the documentation this should allow the Archive folder to have an additional 1G in it that is not counted toward the global 3G. However I have users who have 2G in the Archive folder, and about 1G elsewhere. At this point they stop receiving emails due to quota exceeded. doveadm quota get -u <user> displays this: Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 3150312 3145728 100 User quota MESSAGE 8271 - 0 If I change Archive:storage=+1G to Archive:ignore then they can receive emails again. After the change doveadm quota get -u displays this: Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 1266885 3145728 40 User quota MESSAGE 8271 - 0 Is there something I'm missing as to why this setup isn't working? Thanks! -- David J.

[Dovecot] Can't see e-mails
by Muzaffer Tolga Ozses 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

Hi, I have a postfix+dovecot+mysql+roundcube setup. I recently changed providers. At the moment, postfix can receive e-mails but either dovecot or roundcube can't see e-mails. I did a telnet example.com 143 then a login user pass and this is what I see: 2013-11-12 16:08:51 auth: Debug: sql(alanya(a)boradental.com.tr,193.255.135.254): SELE CT '/var/vmail/boradental.com.tr/alanya' as home, 'maildir:/var/vmail/ boradental.com .tr/alanya' as mail, 5000 AS uid, 5000 AS gid, concat('dirsize:storage=', quota) AS quota FROM mailbox WHERE username = 'alanya(a)boradental.com.tr' AND active = '1' 2013-11-12 16:08:51 auth: Debug: master out: USER 3767009281 alanya@borad ental.com.tr home=/var/vmail/boradental.com.tr/alanya mail=maildir:/va r/vmail/boradental.com.tr/alanya uid=5000 gid=5000 quota=dirsize:storage=0 so I'm assuming dovecot works. Am I right to assume this? If I'm not, what's the solution? If I am, how can I debug this? Regards,

[Dovecot] Dovecot MTA
by Timo Sirainen 12 Nov '13

12 Nov '13

Hi all, I've never really wanted to create my own MTA, because I like Postfix quite a lot. And I always thought it would require a horribly lot of time to be able to create something that was anywhere even close to having Postfix's features. (I would shudder to even think about recreating Dovecot from scratch nowadays.) But slowly over time I've also been thinking of ways how things could be done a bit better, and I think I have enough ideas to start thinking about Dovecot MTA more seriously in a few more months (after my current busy schedule calms down a bit). And (unlike Dovecot!) I'm not planning on taking over the world with the MTA (or at least not very quickly), but it would definitely be useful for many installations I know of. My main design goals for the MTA are: * In normal load don't queue mails, just continue delivering the mail through different processes/services until it succeeds or fails, and only after that return ok/failure to the SMTP client. So there's no (forced) post-queue filtering, everything would normally happen pre-queue. This is required because in Germany (and EU in general?) you aren't allowed to just drop spams after SMTP server has responsed OK to the client, even if you’re 100% sure it’s a spam. So this would also mean that the SMTP DATA replies will come more slowly, which means that the SMTP server must be able to handle a lot more concurrent SMTP connections, which means that in large installations the smtpd process must be able to asynchronously handle multiple SMTP client connections. * In some cases you can't really avoid placing mails into a queue. This could be because of temporary failures or maybe because of an abnormal load spike. A mail queue in local disk isn't very nice though, because if the local disk dies, the queued mails are lost. Dovecot MTA will allow the queue to be in object storage and it will also likely support replication (similar to current dsync replication). In both of these cases if a server dies, another server can quickly take over its queue and continue handling it. * Dovecot MTA is a new product, which means we can add some requirements to how it's being used, especially related to securely sending emails between servers. It could do a bunch of checks at startup and fail to even start if everything isn't correct. Here are some things I had in mind - not sure if all of these are good ideas or not: - Require DKIM configuration. All outgoing mails will be DKIM signed. - Require the domain’s DNS to contain _submission._tcp SRV record (and actually might as well require _imap._tcp too) - Require SSL certificates to be configured and always allow remote to use STARTTLS - Require DANE TLSA record to exist and match the server's configured SSL cert - Have very good (and strict?) DNSSEC support. If we know a remote server is supposed to have valid DNSSEC entries, but doesn't, fail to deliver mail entirely? - Add a new DNS record that advertises this is a Dovecot MTA (or compatible). If such entry is found (especially when correctness is guaranteed by DNSSEC), the email sender can assume that certain features exist and work correctly. If they don't, it could indicate an attack and the mail sending should be retried later. This DNS record would of course be good to try to standardize. * Configuration: It would take years to implement all of the settings that Postfix has, but I think it's not going to be necessary. In fact I think the number of new settings to dovecot.conf that Dovecot MTA requires would be very minimal. Instead nearly all of the configuration could be done using Sieve scripts. We'd need to implement some new MTA-specific Sieve extensions and a few core features/configurations/databases that the scripts can use, but after that there wouldn't be really any limits to what could be done with them. * Try to implement as many existing interfaces as possible (e.g. Milter and various Postfix APIs like policy servers) so that it wouldn’t be necessary to reimplement all the tools and filters. So perhaps something like this could be done in time for Dovecot v2.4. Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions?
