Hi I came across this error which happend immedately after a mail delivery to the inbox. Should I look for the problem externally to dovecot (ie. file system, operating system) or within dovecot? I never saw this error before installing 2.2.1, with 2.2.2 I seemed to get even more of them so currently back on 2.2.1 Thanks John Jun 11 00:00:05 rosalia dovecot: imap(myemail@mydomain): Error: Corrupted transaction log file /var/vmail/mydomain/myemail(a)mydomain/dovecot.index.log seq 311: file size shrank (1184 < 1304) (sync_offset=1304) Jun 11 00:00:05 rosalia dovecot: imap(myemail@mydomain): Error: Index /var/vmail/mydomain/myemail(a)mydomain/dovecot.index: Lost log for seq=310 offset=32816 Jun 11 00:00:05 rosalia dovecot: imap(myemail@mydomain): Warning: fscking index file /var/vmail/mydomain/myemail(a)mydomain/dovecot.index Jun 11 00:00:05 rosalia dovecot: imap(myemail@mydomain): Error: Index /var/vmail/mydomain/myemail(a)mydomain/dovecot.index: Lost log for seq=310 offset=32816 Jun 11 00:00:05 rosalia dovecot: imap(myemail@mydomain): Warning: fscking index file /var/vmail/mydomain/myemail(a)mydomain/dovecot.index Jun 11 00:00:05 rosalia dovecot: imap(myemail@mydomain): Error: /var/vmail/mydomain/myemail(a)mydomain/dovecot.index log position went backwards (310,32816 < 311,1304) Jun 11 00:00:05 rosalia dovecot: imap(myemail@mydomain): Error: Index /var/vmail/mydomain/myemail(a)mydomain/dovecot.index: Lost log for seq=310 offset=32816 Jun 11 00:00:05 rosalia dovecot: imap(myemail@mydomain): Warning: fscking index file /var/vmail/mydomain/myemail(a)mydomain/dovecot.index Jun 11 00:00:05 rosalia dovecot: imap(myemail@mydomain): Disconnected: Internal error occurred.

[Dovecot] IMAPS: Disable SSL connection without client certificate
by Ireneusz Szcześniak 02 Jul '13

02 Jul '13

I've been using Dovecot 2.1.8 on OpenBSD 5.2 i386 for about a month. It works great. Dovecot serves IMAPS only, and I'm using Thunderbird to access my mail. I configured Dovecot to allow clients that present a valid certificate when establishing SSL connection. I configure my Thunderbird for SSL/TLS connection with normal password. It works fine. However, with my config anybody can connect to my server without presenting a certificate: > openssl s_client -connect server:993 > (...) > * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS > ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. Luckily, after connecting without a certificate logging fails: > a001 login iszczesniak password > a001 NO [ALERT] Client didn't present valid SSL certificate *QUESTION: Is there a way in Dovecot to disable establishing an SSL connection without a client certificate?* My complete config is : # dovecot -n # 2.1.8: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: OpenBSD 5.2 i386 auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes mail_location = maildir:~/archive/mail mbox_write_locks = fcntl mmap_disable = yes namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { driver = bsdauth } protocols = imap service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } } ssl_ca = </etc/ssl/certs/cacertcrl.pem ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/cert.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/key.pem ssl_verify_client_cert = yes userdb { driver = passwd } verbose_ssl = yes protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail tb-extra-mailbox-sep tb-lsub-flags } protocol pop3 { pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh } -- Ireneusz (Irek) Szczesniak http://www.irkos.org

[Dovecot] Doubt the relationship between NTLM and Kerberos.
by Maria Jose Yañez Dacosta 01 Jul '13

01 Jul '13

Could someone explain to me what role does the Authenticating Kerberos NTLM in Authenticating NTLM explained in http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/ActiveDirectoryNtlm ? Not understand that relationship between NTLM and Kerberos?. I have to configure thunderbird with simple password method and leave the password to be blank or have to use the gssapi? Although gssapi not supported by windows right? You have to generate a keytab for imap server against AD? I should create in windows and copy it to linux where I have my imap server? I appreciate someone can explain this. Thank you!. -- Maria José

Re: [Dovecot] Samba4 and user auth

The password field > in your query is userPassword or am I wrong here? the password field is hidden (only the user can see it) by default, and not stored as a unix-friendly value (anything a crypt() would understand) what I use is auth_bind (which uses user-supplied password to bind to the LDAP directory). what it means is that on every login there are 2 lookups (first one using your "service" DN to find the user DN, second one with your user DN to check the password) that also means that you need a password format that your LDAP can understand (mostly a plaintext password, or NTLM if your mail server is a Samba domain member). As long as you only offer IMAP/SSL I dont think plaintext (as in "auth_mechanisms = plain") is an issue, security wise. as far as the service account (the one that is used to look up users) goes, I am using the default option (setting "dn" and "dnpass" variables), which I think is a simple bind. it is possible that it only works because Samba4 and dovecot run on the same machine.

[Dovecot] Server shutting down
by Simon B 01 Jul '13

And I've been very happy. However, yesterday the server just just shutdown. /var/log/mail.log.1:42890:Jun 30 17:27:04 mail dovecot: imap: Server shutting down. in=14 out=648 /var/log/mail.log.1:42891:Jun 30 17:27:04 mail dovecot: imap: Server shutting down. in=14 out=648 /var/log/mail.log.1:42893:Jun 30 17:27:04 mail dovecot: imap: Server shutting down. in=14 out=648 /var/log/mail.log.1:42895:Jun 30 17:27:34 mail dovecot: imap: Server shutting down. in=739 out=2081 /var/log/mail.log.1:42896:Jun 30 17:27:34 mail dovecot: imap: Server shutting down. in=1764 out=4027 There's no error|panic|warning|fatal messages in any of the logs. root@mail:~# grep -in dovecot /var/log/syslog | grep '(fatal|error|warning|panic)' root@mail:~# grep -in dovecot /var/log/messages | grep '(fatal|error|warning|panic)' root@mail:~# grep -in dovecot /var/log/daemon.log | grep '(fatal|error|warning|panic)' root@mail:~# grep -inr dovecot /var/log/mail* | grep '(fatal|error|warning|panic)' Although everything should log to mail.log if I set up rsyslog properly. The timestamp is not correlated to any of my cron jobs. How can I find out what caused this? Of course with Dovecot shut down Postfix refused to send mail as there was no auth service available.

[Dovecot] Samba4 and user auth
by Carsten Laun-De Lellis 01 Jul '13

Hi all I am trying to set up an email Server with a Samba4 AD as user Directory. Does anybody know a good how-to to setup user auth against AD ? Or could anyone tell me how to do it? I am having an email Server up and running with openldap but want to change to Samba4 AD, because of the openchange Integration. I would appreciate any help on this topic. -- Mit freundlichem Gruß Carsten Laun-De Lellis Hauptstrasse 13 D-67705 Trippstadt Phone: +49 6306 992140 Fax: +49 6306 992142 Mobile: +49 151 27530865 email: carsten.delellis(a)delellis.net http://www.linkedin.com/in/carstenlaundelellis [1] Links: ------ [1] http://www.linkedin.com/in/carstenlaundelellis

[Dovecot] LIST command -- quoting of folder names
by Eric Abrahamsen 01 Jul '13

01 Jul '13

If I open an imap connection to a local maildir installation like so: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap -o mail_location=maildir:$HOME/.mail/account/:LAYOUT=fs And issue: c list "" * This is the result (this is a gmail account): * LIST (\HasChildren) "/" [Gmail] * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" [Gmail]/Spam * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" [Gmail]/Starred * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" [Gmail]/Trash * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" [Gmail]/Drafts * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" "[Gmail]/Sent Mail" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" [Gmail]/Important * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" INBOX Only "[Gmail]/Sent Mail" is quoted. This is messing up gnus, my MUA, which truncates other folder names after the / separator. Examples of testing I've seen online have shown all folder names quoted, which would allow things to work correctly here. Is this something I can affect with local configuration, or is there some other solution? Would removing "LAYOUT=fs" affect this issue? Thanks!
