There was a periodic doveadm quotacheck job that was unaware of the zlib compression. I fixed that and no new corruption occured (though I still see errors from already corrupted cache data - that will hopefully dry up over time). However: I have still no idea why dovecot is complaining about the index.* files. It seems that the source of the wrong data is the dovecot-uidlist. Also I don't see why the quotacheck cmd (doveadm quota recalc -u <>) **sometimes** updates the dovecot-uidlist file. The quota itself is stored in a sql dict. Thanks to all who provided their input and especially Aki for the support! Tim

Postfix : root and system user authentication
by Aymeric Agon-Rambosson 16 Mar '23

16 Mar '23

Hello everyone, >From what I understand of the documentation, it is impossible to log in to the dovecot server as root, or as any user not in the interval between first_valid_uid and last_valid_uid. I have been able to verify this. However, when we have a postfix server on the same machine, that delegates authentication to dovecot SASL according to the configuration described at https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/howto/postfix_and_dovecot_sasl/, we can indeed log in as root on the postfix server.

My question is, is this a feature or a bug ? The hardcoded impossibility to login as root to dovecot, and the honouring of the variables {first,last}_valid_{u,g}id, are those specific to login to dovecot directly, or should they be applicable to any other process that has delegated its authentication to dovecot ? If this is a feature, that is if postfix cannot profit from the variables {first,last}_valid_{u,g}id (or the hardcoded forbidding of root) through dovecot sasl : - This should maybe made more obvious somewhere in the documentation. - What would be the good way to prevent root login to postfix, when authentication is delegated to dovecot ? The dovecot version is 2.3.13 (89f716dc2) The system is the following : Linux 5.10.0-21-arm64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.162-1 (2023-01-21) aarch64 GNU/Linux Thank you in advance for your time. I have included the output of dovecot -n for reference. Best regards, Aymeric

Build dovecot from source

I mainly use fairemail to read emails on my phone, and that is working fine but I noticed that deleted emails were not actually getting deleted, that it has a bunch of "pending operations" it has were not running, and that dovecot has been crashing like this since about feb 2 (over a month ago). I can't figure out what changed at that time, but my cert says it should have expired over a year ago, but the cert as created 26 months ago. log files only go back to Feb 5 so just missed that. I generated a new cert but it's still crashing (I probably still need to do something on the client side or my setup is broken). I assume there is something wrong or some "snapshot" thing that's stuck, but since it's crashing I can't figure out what the undelysing problem is. Thanks for any help.

Option to disable client-initiated renegotiation
by Serg 13 Mar '23

13 Mar '23

Hello, is there any way to disallow client-initiated renegotiation at the dovecot? I haven't found any mention of this feature within source code as well as at the documentation. I am asking about it because without this feature mail server is vulnerable to a TLS renegotiation DoS attack which can consume a lot of CPU and is harder to combat comparing to a basic TLS connections flood.

set imap flags in user sieve scripts
by spi 11 Mar '23

11 Mar '23

Hi all Could anyone lead me into the right direction please? I use 'addflag ...' or 'fileinto :flags ...' in global sieve scripts to flag and sort incoming mail - that works. Trying to do that with custom user scripts doesn't work - I get the error that imap4flags only can be used in global scripts. Is there any way to get incoming mails labled and sorted by user sieve scripts? So something like this for a particular user doesn't work: if address :domain "From" "whatever.com"{ fileinto :flags ["\\todo"] "working/whatever"; } -- Cheers spi

Inconsistent filtering with debugging
by Christian Wolf 11 Mar '23

11 Mar '23

Hello, I have the problem, that I have a Postfix/Dovecot combination running with Sieve activated. The sieve script is running in general as some messages get filtered and moved to the appropriate folders. Now, I see that for the envelope filter, the behavior differs depending if I am debugging the rules or if the mails are received in a regular way. I have something like this: require "envelope"; # ... if envelope :is "to" "foo(a)subdaomin.example.com" { fileinto "INBOX.bar"; stop; } # ... The thing is if I call sieve-filter on the INBOX, I get the information that the mail is to be moved to the appropriate folder. However during delivery the mail is not moved there. Other rules in the script are working so it is installed in general. Of course, I could send mails to the mail address for testing but I have no clue on where to look for issues, especially as the "main debugging tool" for the rules (sieve-filter) is strangely behaving differently. The reason, I wanted to use the envelope was because the mails are delivered to foo(a)subdomain.example.com. From there, some virtual aliases are forwarded to a cental account bar(a)example.net using postfix virtual aliases. Thus, the Delivered-To header is always showing the value bar(a)example.net which is not suited for filtering. I could filter the Received headers but hoped for a more "high level" solution. Can you give me any advice? Christian

Winbind auhentication
by Luciano Mannucci 10 Mar '23

10 Mar '23

Helo all! I'm trying to set up a dovecot server so that it authenticates local user via /etc/passwd (I'm on a Freebsd 13.1) and via winbindd for those that it cannot find localy. The samba suite is alive and well, postfix gets happily mail from domain users and saves it with correct name and permissions from the windows domain. If I try to authenticate a domain user via wbinfo it works, with dovecot it doesn't. I guess I'v forgot something in the dovecot config... :) Here is my doveconf -n: # 2.3.20 (80a5ac675d): /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.5.20 (149edcf2) # OS: FreeBSD
