Hi, Is there any option in Dovecot that enables logging the full path of where a message is saved in the backend? Dominic

[Dovecot] (new) director issues in 2.1.10
by Kelsey Cummings 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

Timo - I upgraded to 2.1.10 on our director servers two nights ago and apart from errors associated with the directors processes restarting everything looked great for ~24 hours until I failed our the real servers last night to update the nfs mount options for the spools. I followed the suggested procedure for each backend server, just run on one of the directors, which seemed to work as expected. doveadm director add x.x.x.x 0 doveadm director flush x.x.x.x The following errors on the directors that started after this went unnoticed until this AM. director: User bb host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 30 secs (Ring synced for 36 secs) director: User cc host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 48 secs (Ring synced for 66 secs, user refreshed 12 secs ago) director: User dd host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 124 secs (Ring synced for 119 secs, weak user, user refreshed 155 secs ago) director: User ee host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 79 secs (Ring synced for 119 secs, weak user, user refreshed 113 secs ago) ... User ff host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 30 secs (Ring synced for 7427 secs, weak user, user refreshed 620 secs ago) This continued, combined with occasional login timeouts (as reported by some internal imap clients.) The login delays/timeouts got bad enough that our load balancers dropped both the servers while I was investigating. They seem to be okay after being restarted. -K

[Dovecot] auth timeout state=2, bad?
by Bernhard Schmidt 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

Hello, we run Dovecot 2.1.7 as SASL backend for our Postfix SMTP-AUTH farm and see this error message occasionally Oct 22 16:15:32 lxmhs52 dovecot: auth: PLAIN(?,xx.xx.xx.xx): Request 0.21 timeouted after 150 secs, state=2 Since it is mostly the same IP repeating I'm assuming it's a client issue. Is that correct? What could cause this? Can we safely ignore it? Thanks, Bernhard

[Dovecot] Marking all mail in one folder of public mailbox as read
by Frerich Raabe 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

Hi, I'm running Dovecot 1.2.17 on FreeBSD 9 to serve an archive of a few internal mailinglists. The archive is implemented using a public namespace: namespace private { separator = / prefix = inbox = yes } namespace public { separator = / prefix = Lists/ location = maildir:/home/vmail/lists/Maildir:CONTROL=~/Maildir/lists:INDEX=~/Maildir/lists subscriptions = no } As you can see, the CONTROL/INDEX files are stored per-user to allow private \Seen flags. The different mailinglists are all sent to the 'lists' user which has a Sieve script to file them into different folders, so I have directories on my harddisk like /home/vmail/lists/Maildir/.somelist /home/vmail/lists/Maildir/.anotherlist Now, I'd like to mark the mail in *one* of those folders as \Seen by default. If the INDEX files weren't per-user, it would simply be a matter of using 'addflag "\Seen";' in the Sieve script of the lists user. Alas, this has no effect. Hence my question - how can I have the mail of just one mailinglist get marked as "read" for all users? So far, the only option I see is to add a second public namespace, with a different prefix - and this namespace doesn't use private CONTROL/INDEX files. However, I'd like to keep using the "Lists" prefix if possible to avoid too many changes to the clients. -- Frerich Raabe - raabe(a)froglogic.com www.froglogic.com - Multi-Platform GUI Testing

The dict is also needed for quota lookup from the database. The only thing which might be omitted is the global quota_rule since it is returned by the userdb/passwd in any case, but I'm not sure what happens if you only configure a "quota_rule2" without configuring a "quota_rule". > My outstanding issue is whenever I as the root mysql user update a > user's quota the other user also gets an update, I noticed with one > the messages column on the other user went from 0 to 2, another time > the quota value went up from 0 to 3500 it seems random. You should not be accounting the actual mailbox usage in the same virtual_users table as the quota is read from. Use *different* column or table name in your dict file where dovecot may write the current storage/message count. > dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext > > map { > pattern = priv/quota/storage > table = virtual_users > username_field = user > value_field = quota value_field should be current_quota_storage (writable column) > } > map { > pattern = priv/quota/messages > table = virtual_users > username_field = user > value_field = quota_messages value_field should be current_quota_messages (writable column) > I'd like to know why these columns are updating. Dovecot stores the current storage and mailcount in there. These columns should be different from the columns defining the maximum limit. Regards Daniel
