[Dovecot] rsync migration issue
by Luigi Rosa 16 Apr '13

16 Apr '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am trying to migrate a mail server from an old VM to a new one. I have maildir and virtual users, the files and dirs of the file system are owned by a single user. I exported the old (now in production) /var/spool/mail with (ro,no_root_squash) parameters I mounted the NFS on the new server with -o nolock This is not the first time I use this method and it always worked. Until now. If I try to rsync the current maildir structure to the new server I get MANY errors like: rsync: readdir("/mnt/xxxx/username"): Invalid argument (22) rsync: readdir("/mnt/xxxx/username/.Deleted Messages/cur"): Too many levels of symbolic links (40) I tried with rsync -a rsync --force --delete-after --devices --specials --sparse -tPrlHpogEAX rsync --force --delete-after --devices --specials --sparse -tPrlHpogEAXL but the result is the same. Suggestions? I don't want to tgz every mailbox, but I wuold like to do a rsync during the night and a final rsync bevore switching IP addresses to minimize downtime.

[Dovecot] Delete_to_Trash plugin problem
by BINOTTO Luis SIDOR 15 Apr '13

15 Apr '13

Hello list... I am new at dovecot and I have a problem with it; any help will be very grateful We have a exchange server with outlook at the client side, and we are migrating the exchange server to postfix/dovecot(1.2.15) solution. I enabled the "deleted-to-trash" plugin (v0.3) to move the messages to the Trash folder automatically when it is deleted. Also, I am using quota and quota_imap plugins to maintain the quota for users. The quota rule for Trash folder is unlimit. The problem is, when the client reach their maximum quota and try to delete a mail in the inbox to release space. The delete to trash plugin effectively copy it to the Trash folder, but the original mail still remain (marked for delete) at the inbox folder and the quota does not released. Am I doing something wrong? Thanking you in anticipation.... Luis Binotto. " Notificacion Automatica: Este mensaje y cualquier archivo que se adjunte contiene informacion privilegiada y confidencial.

[Dovecot] Dict quota question
by Antoine Nguyen 15 Apr '13

15 Apr '13

Hi all, I'm using Dovecot 2.1.16 and I'd like to know if the following configuration is supported: * An SQL dictionary quota * A static userdb to get uid/gid/home information * An SQL userdb to get per-user quota limit Currenlty, current quota usage are properly stored into the database but per-user limits are not found. If I replace the SQL dictionary by the maildir backend (my previous config.), it works as expected. Do you have any idea? Thanks in advance, Antoine Nguyen http://modoboa.org/

[Dovecot] lazy_expunge plugin with virtual mailboxes
by Gilles Chauvin 15 Apr '13

15 Apr '13

Hi, When using both lazy_expunge and virtual mailboxes (with, for instance, a "All Messages" virtual mailbox) as soon as a user deletes/expunges a mail in one of its mailbox, Dovecot is saving two mails to the lazy_expunge namespace (the one in the user mailbox and the one in the virtual mailbox). Is there some kind of trick to make Dovecot ignore any mail deleted from a virtual mailbox namespace ? Thanks, Gilles.

Any guidance > appreciated. The hashes are salted, and that is why the hashes are different, even though the same password is used. (Test it by using the output of "doveadm pw" and plugging it into your test account). The hashes ought to be the same length. The out would be proportional to the length of your input password if the were encrypting, rathher than hashing. But the length of the hash is consant + encoded(salt) + encoded (hash(password)), all of which ought to be fixed lengths. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[Dovecot] How to manually generate a password hash
by David Murphy 14 Apr '13

14 Apr '13

Hi folks. I've recently set up a Postfix 2.9.6/Dovecot 2.0.19 IMAPS/SMTPS setup on Ubuntu 12.04.2 (Mysql backend). I'm new to all this, so I apologize if this is fairly basic. I've attempted to the best of my ability to search for an answer, but no luck so far. What I'm trying to do is generate a password hash that I can inject directly into my Mysql database (disaster recovery sort of situation). Towards that goal, I'm trying to use 'doveadm pw' to generate a hash that matches a known password in my database. Unfortunately, I'm coming up empty. My default_pass_scheme in dovecot-sql.conf is set to MD5-CRYPT, and the passwords in the database have no scheme prefixes. I'm attempting to generate a hash with: sudo doveadm pw -s 'MD5-CRYPT' but the hash generated does not match the user's password hash in the database, which is known to be a good password. I'm able to log into this account successfully in both Roundcube and a remote IMAP client. I've also tried using the -p flag and including the password in the command, and that doesn't do it either, though it oddly gives a different response than using the prompt. (What causes this? Newlines?) So... what am I missing? If the hash was salted, it would seem the hashes in the database would be longer than the ones generated at the command line, but that isn't the case. I'm out of ideas. Any guidance appreciated. -Dave
