amount of users
by Thomas Schäfer 05 May '23

05 May '23

Hi, is somewhere a table/matrix/function based on experience how many users require which values for mail_max_userip_connections default_client_limit default_process_limit ...? I run into problems with a small group of users, since the defaults seem to be only for single man shows. The second assumption is: User are permanently online (connected to imap) and using two devices in average (one or two desktops, + one mobile device) Regards, Thomas -- There’s no place like ::1 Thomas Schäfer (Systemverwaltung) Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Centrum für Informations- und Sprachverarbeitung Oettingenstraße 67 Raum C109 80538 München ☎ +49/89/2180-9706 ℻ +49/89/2180-9701

dmarc user can't receive email because of encrypted storage
by efeizbudak＠disroot.org 04 May '23

04 May '23

Hi all, So recently google has been trying to send email to dmarc(a)domain.com on my server but I'm using encrypted storage and since the dmarc user has no password the email is being rejected with the error: May 4 16:51:50 domain dovecot: lda(dmarc)<3326><l0J9NabiU2T+DAAA1iAyAg>: Error: sieve: msgid=<10341808348719730099(a)google.com>: failed to store into mailbox 'INBOX': generate_keypair(INBOX) failed: mail_crypt_require_encrypted_user_key set, cannot generate user keypair without password or key How can I fix this, or at least read what the mail says? Would it be safe to just give dmarc user a strong password?

Error: read() failed for file :: No buffer space available
by rudolf＠padaru.de 04 May '23

Hey there, ive got a situation with one of mine mailusers he cant access his mailbox and i cant resync the mailuser or access the mails with doveadm too: In maillog we got a lot of these errors, ist only m.73 that makes problems: Error: Syncing mailbox INBOX failed: read() /mdbox/storage/m.73: No buffer space available I dont really understand whats the problem here, the partition has ~500gb free space and all other mailboxes work fine on this server. Is there somebody who can give me a hint to solve this? First i thought the mdbox file is to obig, so i increased the mdbox_rotate_size limit without success. To restart the dovecot changes nothing too. In the dovecot journal i cant find other problems wo cause in this one, same in syslog, nothing special to see, like segfaults or so.

Help - Permissions issue with new mail
by michele.clark＠us.kbr.com 03 May '23

03 May '23

Hi all. We have an install of Dovecot running with Postfix and Roundcube using virtual mail to allow us to connect to our AD domain which got messed up after a power issue. I can log into our Roundcube and see all my old emails, however new emails keep getting stuck in the CUR files with permissions of -rw------- If I chmod the email it will deliver to the inbox in Roundcube. Can anyone advise on how I can adjust this so all new emails will come thru with the correct permissions? - Thanks in advance

managesieve problem
by Soeren Malchow 25 Apr '23

25 Apr '23

Hi, i am struggeling with a managesieve problem, we are using docker mailserver and managesieve login does not work, if i understand correctly, then dovecot should offer something like this "SASL" "PLAIN" on our server it is simply empty "SASL" "" i was trying to authenticate in a telnet connection AUTHENTICATE "PLAIN" "LOGINSTRING_HERE" And i get this NO "Error in MANAGESIEVE command received by server." first of all i would like to ask where the SASL capabilites come from, how can i get it to offer "PLAIN" or "AUTH" everything else (e.g. sieve itself) just works find Cheers Soeren

dovecot sasl with postfix, smtp auth not available

Hi All, I have set up dovecot sasl with postfix. When I check the smtp with ehlo there is no auth advertise. Connected to www.zystro.xyz.

dovecot-fts-solr Solr9 support
by PGNet Dev 24 Apr '23

24 Apr '23

I run dovecot-2.3.18 , & am deploying Solr search with 'dovecot-fts-solr' I run Solr standalone. When creating a dedicated 'dovecot' core, cp'ing from Dovecot's included solr schemas ls -al /usr/share/doc/dovecot/solr-* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12K Dec 3 06:48 /usr/share/doc/dovecot/solr-config-7.7.0.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.7K Dec 3 06:48 /usr/share/doc/dovecot/solr-schema-7.7.0.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.9K Dec 3 06:48 /usr/share/doc/dovecot/solr-schema.xml is tested only for Solr 7.7.0 https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/fts/solr/ "The steps described in this page are tested for Solr 7.7.0. For other versions, this these steps may need to be adjusted." which, per solr docs https://solr.apache.org/downloads.html About versions and support Version Description 9.x Current major version for feature releases (STABLE) 8.11.x Previous major version may sometimes receive critical bugfix releases 10 Next major version, yet to be released (UNSTABLE) <8.11 All older versions are End Of Life (EOL) is EOL'd and unsupported. In the dovecot 7.7.0 schema, FastLRUCache/LRUCache are used as the caching class(es), grep class=.*LRU /usr/share/doc/dovecot/solr-config-7.7.0.xml <filterCache class="solr.FastLRUCache" <queryResultCache class="solr.LRUCache" <documentCache class="solr.LRUCache" class="solr.search.LRUCache" For Solr 9, cat CHANGES.txt Upgrade Notes --------------------- ... * SOLR-13817: Deprecate legacy SolrCache implementations. Users are encouraged to transition their configurations to use org.apache.solr.search.CaffeineCache instead. (ab) running solr9 + dovecot-fts-solr search, based on the 7.7.0 schemas, results in errors, failed scan & search. Modifying the config to use CaffeineCache cp solr-config-7.7.0.xml solr-config-9.0.0.xml perl -pi -e '\ s|solr.FastLRUCache|solr.CaffeineCache|g; \ s|solr.LRUCache|solr.CaffeineCache|g; \ s|solr.search.LRUCache|solr.search.CaffeineCache|g;' \ solr-config-9.0.0.xml appears to do the trick. Atm, indexing & search -- both manually triggered, and on delivery receipt to Dovecot store -- is working with no errors (yet). I've not tested exhaustively yet, & don't know if this Cache class change in the schema is both necessary & sufficient for dovecot-fts-solr search use with solr 9.0.0 Given that for Solr "<8.11 All older versions are End Of Life (EOL)" it'd be useful for Dovecot to 'retest' for current, not-EOL'd Solr, and publish/package compatible schemas accordingly.

sieve traces not logged
by Christian Weiske 23 Apr '23

23 Apr '23

Hello, Some sieve filters do not work as expected and I want to debug why. For that I configured in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/90-sieve.conf sieve_trace_dir = /var/log/dovecot/ sieve_trace_level = matching and created /var/log/dovecot/ and gave it the user+group "Debian-exim". Unfortunately, no logs are written into that direcory. The normal log file in /var/log/dovecot.log contains no information - except that lmtp stored the mail in mailbox "test". The docs[1] only say that those two options need to be enabled. Sieve itself works, which I confirmed by creating a rule that moves mails with subject "test" into a separate folder. What am I doing wrong? ---- $ dovecot --version 2.3.20 (80a5ac675d) Running on Debian 11, packages from https://repo.dovecot.org/ce-2.3-latest/debian/bullseye Full sieve config from "dovecot -n": plugin { imapsieve_mailbox1_before = file:/var/lib/dovecot/sieve/learn-spam.sieve imapsieve_mailbox1_causes = COPY imapsieve_mailbox1_name = Spam imapsieve_mailbox2_before = file:/var/lib/dovecot/sieve/learn-ham.sieve imapsieve_mailbox2_causes = COPY imapsieve_mailbox2_from = Spam imapsieve_mailbox2_name = * sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_default = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve sieve_global_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.pipe +vnd.dovecot.environment sieve_pipe_bin_dir = /etc/dovecot/sieve-bin/ sieve_plugins = sieve_imapsieve sieve_extprograms sieve_trace_debug = no sieve_trace_dir = /var/log/dovecot-sieve sieve_trace_level = matching } [1] https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/sieve/configuration/#trace-deb… -- Regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen Christian Weiske -=≡ Geeking around in the name of science since 1982 ≡=-
