[Dovecot] proxy, managesieve and ssl?
by Nicolas KOWALSKI 12 Jan '12

12 Jan '12

Hello, On a dovecot 2.0.14 proxy, I found that proxying managesieve works well when using 'starttls' option in pass_attrs, but does not work when using 'ssl' option. The backend server is also dovecot 2.0.14; when using the ssl option, it reports "no auth attempts" in the logs about managesieve-login, and meanwhile the MUA, Thunderbird with sieve plugin, reports [TRYLATER] account is temporary disabled; no problem when using starttls option on the proxy, all works well. I would like to use IMAPs, instead of IMAP+STARTTLS, from proxy to backend, and have Managesieve still working. Is this supported? Thanks, -- Nicolas

[Dovecot] could not start dovecot - unknown section type
by Daminto Lie 12 Jan '12

Hi, I was wondering if I could get some help with the following error when trying to start dovecot service on Ubuntu Server 10.04. The error message is as follows * Starting IMAP/POP3 mail server dovecot Error: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 15: Unknown section type Fatal: Invalid configuration in /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf [fail] I have just managed to upgrade it from 1.2.19 to 2.0.17. Then, I tried to start the dovecot by running the command $ sudo /etc/init.d/dovecot start And I received the above message.

[Dovecot] Dovecot LDA and address extensions - folders flood
by huret deffgok 11 Jan '12

11 Jan '12

Hi list, This post is slightly OT, I hope no one will take offense. I was following the wiki on using dovecot LDA with postfix and implemented, for our future mail server, the address extensions mechanism: an email sent to "validUser+foldername(a)mydomain.com" will have dovecot-lda automagically create and subscribe the "foldername" folder. With some basic scripting I was able to create hundreds of folders in a few seconds. So my question is how do you implement this great feature in a secure way so that funny random people out there cant flood your mailbox with gigatons of folder. Thanks, kfx

[Dovecot] Log imap commands

Hi, I am trying to optimize an imap library and I am comparing with some existing webmail, for instance from roundcube I can log the imap commands with the following format : [11-Jan-2012 14:22:55 +0100]: [DBD1] S: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN AUTH=DIGEST-MD5 AUTH=CRAM-MD5] Dovecot ready.

And now I would like to do the same from my imap library so I have started wireshark but it's a bit messy and difficult to compare. I was wondering if dovecot allows to log imap communications ? Thanks

[Dovecot] How to solve a "Connection queue full problem" - dovecot version 2.0.16
by Didier Gervaise 11 Jan '12

11 Jan '12

Hello, I put in production dovecot yesterday. After an hour, nobody could log in ("Max number of imap connection" error message on Thunderbird) Afterward, I found these messages in the logs: Jan 10 09:21:20 mailsrv dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.info] imap-login: Disconnected: Connection queue full (no auth attempts): rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx In the panic, I changed these values in /usr/local/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf default_process_limit = 20000 default_client_limit = 20000 This apparently solved the problem but now I have these messages when I start dovecot: Jan 11 14:41:08 mailsrvspare dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.info] master: Dovecot v2.0.15 starting up Jan 11 14:41:08 mailsrvspare dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.warning] config: Warning: service auth { client_limit=4096 } is lower than required under max. load (103024) Jan 11 14:41:08 mailsrvspare dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.warning] config: Warning: service anvil { client_limit=20000 } is lower than required under max. load (60003) What should I do ? - adding "service_count = 0" in service imap-login { ... } and removing the modifications I did in 10-master.conf ? or - should I configure differently default_process_limit and default_client_limit ?

[Dovecot] Providing shared folders with multiple backend servers
by Sven Hartge 11 Jan '12

11 Jan '12

Hi *, I am currently in the planning stage for a "new and improved" mail system at my university. Right now, everything is on one big backend server but this is causing me increasing amounts of pain, beginning with the time a full backup takes. So naturally, I want to split this big server into smaller ones. To keep things simple, I want to pin a user to a server so I can avoid things like NFS or cluster aware filesystems. The mapping for each account is then inserted into the LDAP object for each user and the frontend proxy (perdition at the moment) then uses this information to route each access to the correct backend storage server running dovecot. So far this has been working nice with my test setup. But: I also have to provide shared folders for users. Thankfully users don't have the right to share their own folders, which makes things easier (I hope). Right now, the setup works like this, using Courier: - complete virtual mail setup - global shared folders configured in /etc/courier/shared/index - inside /home/shared-folder-name/Maildir/courierimapacl specific user get access to a folder - each folder a user has access is mapped to the namespace #shared like #shared.shared-folder-name Now, if I split my backend storage server into multiple ones and user-A is on server-1 and user-B is on server-2, but both need to access the same shared folder, I have a problem. I could of course move all users needing access to a shared folder to the same server, but in the end, this will be a nightmare for me, because I forsee having to move users around on a daily basis. Right now, I am pondering with using an additional server with just the shared folders on it and using NFS (or a cluster FS) to mount the shared folder filesystem to each backend storage server, so each user has potential access to a shared folders data. Ideas? Suggestions? Nudges in the right direction? Grüße, Sven. -- Sigmentation fault. Core dumped.

[Dovecot] Dovecot under Virtual Host environment??
by sparkietm 10 Jan '12

10 Jan '12

Hi all, Could anyone point me to a walk-through of setting up Dovecot for multiple domains under a Virtual Host environment? I'd like to offer clients their own email domain for each virtual host e.g john(a)client_1.com, sue(a)client_2.com. I'm guessing this is fairly common set-up, but a search on "multiple domains" didn't bring much back. Also, would it be possible to offer each client webmail? Many thanks in advance Mark -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Dovecot-under-Virtual-Host-environment---tp33114381p3… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] A small bug and a question about CONTEXT=SEARCH
by Anders 10 Jan '12

10 Jan '12

Hi, I have been looking at search and sorting with dovecot and have run into some things. The first one I think may be a minor bug because a set of commands result in the socket connection being closed without warning: UID SEARCH RETURN (SAVE COUNT) CHARSET UTF-8 (UNDELETED TEXT "foo") UID SEARCH RETURN (COUNT MIN) CHARSET UTF-8 () $ The empty paranthesis before the reference to the previous search result ($) is not legal IMAP, but should not cause the socket to be closed I think. Then I have question about RFC5267 and the announcement of CONTEXT=SEARCH in the capabilities. I think this RFC is supported by dovecot, or maybe just part of the RFC is supported? At least when I include the CONTEXT ADDTO or REMOVEFROM keywords I get an error, but UPDATE and CANCELUPDATE seem to be supported. The RFC has been updated by the RFC describing the NOTIFY extension to IMAP so maybe it has been decided to not add these keywords until a later time? I am using dovecot version 2.0.15 (with patches from Apple). Best Regards Anders

[Dovecot] rewriting mail_location
by Burckhard Schmidt 10 Jan '12

10 Jan '12

Hello, I have LDAP as userdb. Entries containing attributes mail=alias.user1(a)some.domain.de and uid=user1 Mail to alias.user1(a)some.domain.de gets delivered into /datatest/user/alias.user1 instead of /datatest/user/user1 by lda. I have userdb { args = /usr/dovecot/etc/ldapuser.conf driver = ldap } with a ldapuser.conf: hosts ... base ... user_filter = (&(|(mail=%u)(mail=%n(a)some.domain) (uid=%u))(objectClass=posixAccount)) user_attrs = uid=mail_location=maildir:/datatest/user/%$, uidNumber=29,gidNumber=133 I hoped local part of attribute mail could be replaced by uid for local delivery with dovecots lda? Any hints how to do that? (With postfix I could rewrite the address to uid@host and use local_transport = dovecot.) postfix has virtual_transport = dovecot.
