[Dovecot] Managesieve doesn't listen on 2000/4190
by Jacek Osiecki 13 Feb '12

13 Feb '12

Hi, Finally I decided to give a try to dovecot 2.0, after spending few years with 1.2. Unfortunately, it doesn't go smooth - finally I managed to cope with LMTP transport and exim, but failed to run managesieve. I have compiled pigeonhole, installed it, configured, everything seems to be done well - except the fact, that nothing is listening on port 2000 or 4190. Here is my doveconf -n. Any ideas? # 2.0.16: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.39.4-vs2.3.1-pre9.2-nfs41-nfsd x86_64 auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = yes debug_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/debug.log dict { quota = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf } disable_plaintext_auth = no first_valid_uid = 79 info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/info.log last_valid_uid = 79 log_path = /var/log/dovecot/main.log mail_debug = yes managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave passdb { driver = pam } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { sieve = /var/mail/sieve/%d/%u.sieve sieve_dir = /var/mail/sieve/%d/%u sieve_global_path = /var/mail/sieve/%d/global.sieve } postmaster_address = postmaster(a)hybrid.pl service imap-login { inet_listener imap { address = 127.0.0.1 port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { address = 0.0.0.0 port = 993 ssl = yes } } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { address = 127.0.0.1 port = 24 } unix_listener lmtp { mode = 0666 } } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } inet_listener sieve_deprecated { port = 2000 } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { address = 127.0.0.1 port = 110 } inet_listener pop3s { address = 0.0.0.0 port = 995 ssl = yes } } ssl = no userdb { driver = passwd } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " sieve quota" } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " sieve quota" } Best regards, -- Jacek Osiecki joshua(a)ceti.pl GG:3828944 I don't want something I need.

Re: [Dovecot] Problems sending email direct into publich folders
by Kuran, Fabian 13 Feb '12

Hi, > Depends on how you want to do this.. For example all mails intended to be put to public namespace could be sent > to a "publicuser" named user, which has write permissions to the public namespace. Then you'll simply create a > sieve script for the publicuser which redirects the mails to the wanted folder (e.g. fileinto "public/hrztest"). I'm also migrating from cyrus-imapd to dovecot. But this solution isn't very good to me. With cyrus I could easily send an email to (for example) bb+shared/archive(a)mydomain.com. Then the mail will be putted to the public folder. Is there a comparable way to do this with Dovecot? FYI: I'm using dovecot in a clustered and multidomain setup. The Mails will be deliviered over LMTP. -- Bye, Fabian Kuran

[Dovecot] v2.1.0 status
by Timo Sirainen 13 Feb '12

13 Feb '12

I'll release v2.1.rc6 in maybe 16 hours or so. If no problems are reported in it after a few days I'll just change version to 2.1.0. So now's a great time to try the latest v2.1 hg version to see if there are any problems. I've gone through all of my old mails. Let me know if you think something is still missing / unfixed in v2.1 hg. Preferably today. Next up: Creating dovecot-2.2 tree with great new features. :)

[Dovecot] Inherited ACLs for mailboxes created by not-owner
by Michael Stilkerich 12 Feb '12

12 Feb '12

Hi, I have shared one of my mailboxes to another user providing him full rights to that mailbox. $ doveadm acl get -u user1 doc ID Global Rights user=user2 admin create delete expunge insert lookup post read write write-deleted write-seen When that user creates a new mailbox within the shared mailbox, the mailbox is successfully created but with an empty ACL. $ doveadm acl get -u user1 doc/hallo ID Global Rights According to the wiki, it should inherit the ACL from its parent, i.e. have full permissions for user2. Dovecot logs the following errors when I access the parent folder the first time after the other user created the child mailbox: dovecot: imap(user1): Error: Mailbox doc/hallo: Corrupted index, uidvalidity=0 dovecot: imap(user1): Error: Recent flags state corrupted for mailbox INBOX dovecot: imap(user1): Error: /home/dovecot/user1/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index reset, view is now inconsistent dovecot: imap(user1): Error: Recent flags state corrupted for mailbox Sent dovecot: imap(user1): Error: /home/dovecot/user1/mailboxes/Sent/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index reset, view is now inconsistent dovecot: imap(user1): Error: /home/dovecot/user1/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index reset, view is now inconsistent This is on dovecot 2.1rc5. -Michael

[Dovecot] Some Dovecot LDA version sends MDN rather than DSN for overquota.
by Mark Sapiro 12 Feb '12

12 Feb '12

It appears that there is some version of the Dovecot LDA that is sending an RFC 3798 MDN rather than an RFC 3464 DSN to report non-delivery to a user who is over quota. See <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/693134> for a discussion of this and <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/693134/+attachment/1773018/+files/A…> for the actual MDN message. The issue is that apparently a user was over quota and Dovecot returned an MDN with a disposition of deleted. This is intended to mean the the mail was delivered to the user but the user deleted it without reading it. If the message was actually not delivered, this should be reported to the MTA so it can return an appropriate SMTP status, or the LDA should send an RFC 3464 DSN with an action of failed. Note that I do not actually use the Dovecot LDA nor do I have any access to the system where the notice in the bug report was received, so I may have incomplete information and this may not be relevant to current versions of Dovecot, but I think it is wrong for Dovecot to report over quota non-delivery via an MDN. -- Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.

[Dovecot] Passdb disconnected unexpectedly when trying to do Director with LMTP
by Mark Zealey 12 Feb '12

12 Feb '12

Hi there, I'm running Dovecot 2.0.16 just set up the director with cut&paste from the wiki. It's working & running fine for pop/imap connections (as verified by doveadm director status user), however when I specify 'RCPT TO' for a (tcp) lmtp connection straight away I get: 451 4.3.0 <xxx(a)yyy.com> Temporary user lookup failure and in the logs: 2012-02-11T14:22:54+00:00 xxx dovecot: lmtp(27997): Error: passdb lookup(xxx(a)yyy.com): Disconnected unexpectedly I'm sure this is an obvious issue for someone who's come across it before. The /var/run/dovecot/director-userdb socket is on the system; exactly the same permissions as the standard auth-userdb Here are the relevant bits of my config (I'm setting lmtp to listen on a different port than normal). Backend password database is mysql if that makes any difference. lmtp_proxy = yes service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp_test { port = 2450 } } protocol lmtp { auth_socket_path = director-userdb } Thanks, Mark

[Dovecot] Lost in configuration
by forumer＠smartmobili.com 12 Feb '12

12 Feb '12

Hi, I am trying to configure dovecot/postfix with virtual users and sasl auth but there are so many tutorials with mistakes and subtle differences that at the end I am lost. So I am running Ubuntu server 11.04 (natty) and when I installed my server I had followed the following guide http://workaround.org/ispmail/etch Then I have migrated to dovecot 2.1 and now I am trying to allow authenticated user to use my smtp server because for the moment I get : Relay access denied Here is my configuration (first is file hierarchy followed by file contents) and I would like to know what I need to do to allow authenticated user send email. In this tutorial http://library.linode.com/email/postfix/dovecot-mysql-ubuntu-10.04-lucid#sp… it seems I have to add some configuration lines inside /etc/pam.d/smtp and add database configuration inside /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf. But what I find weird is the fact I have to configure some sql queries from smtpd.conf while normally dovecot has already all the information to do this kind of query. So before to keep on modifying my config I would like to be sure I am following the right way.
