[Dovecot] Wish list item: %g/%{gid} variable
by Pascal Volk 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

I think it would be very useful to have a user's GID in a variable. So i could use for example: mail_attachment_dir = /srv/mail/.SiS/%{gid} I use one GID per domain and the aliases fqhns of the domain. When for example example.com would be an alias for exmaple.net (gid: 12345), the attachments would be stored inside /srv/mail/.SiS/12345/, no matter if a message was sent to john.doe(a)example.com or to john.doe(a)example.net. "quota = dict:domain:%{gid}:proxy::quota" would then also work. Regards, Pascal -- The trapper recommends today: c01dcofe.1134217(a)localdomain.org

[Dovecot] "Unstable" vs "Development" vs "Nightly"
by Terry Carmen 09 Dec '11

09 Dec '11

I'm currently running v2.1rc1, but have been seeing errors like: Dec 8 11:31:55 it kernel: auth[18914]: segfault at 48 ip 00fe2f74 sp bfcaccd0 error 4 in libauthdb_imap.so[fdd000+f000] The unstable and nightly builds are newer, but are they likely to be more or less stable than the version I'm currently running? I'd like to install a newer version, but am trying to get a feel for how usable they're likely to be. Thanks, Terry

[Dovecot] Error: Corrupted index cache file /xxx/yyy/zzz/indexes/.INBOX/dovecot.index.cache: invalid record size
by florent＠coppint.com 09 Dec '11

Hi all, I got a problem with a Dovecot IMAP/POP installation. Since a recent failure of our distributed file system (no loss of data btw), Dovecot seems to have a problem with index cache files. For a lot of accounts, I have this error in logs: Error: Corrupted index cache file /xxx/yyy/zzz/indexes/.INBOX/dovecot.index.cache: invalid record size If I delete all files from /indexes/ directory, it still occurs... Do you see what can cause this problem ? Or what information can I provide to help ? Our distributed FS is MooseFS. Dovecot is configured like if it was NFS (no mmap, etc...). Thank you for your help :) Flo

Thanks Timo, this patch applied clean against 2.0.16 just running it on live for the past few minutes & seems to have fixed the issues.

Thanks for the patch; will it work ok against 2.0.16? if so I'll recompile and give it a test today. Mark

Hi Timo, right after delivering the message to the INBOX the lmtp crashes. I wonder about the "Sent" in the attached backtrace. Regards, Pascal -- The trapper recommends today: c01dcofe.1134117(a)localdomain.org

[Dovecot] problems when using dsync between servers
by Yann Dupont 08 Dec '11

08 Dec '11

Hello, I'm trying to migrate from maildir++ to mdbox. The maildir++ is a leftover of our previous setup (was using courier) We have 3 virtuals servers for our +70000 accounts. Now, I'd like to use mdbox, so I'm trying using dsync for that. I setup a new virtual server, configured for mdbox. 1st, I tried a basic setup: I established a file with all my accounts (taken from LDAP) and then I use this script : FILENAME=$1 while read LINE do dsync -u $LINE backup $LINE@my_new_server done < $FILENAME But it's quite slow and dsync hangs. So I tried another approach using multi threaded python. Much faster (using all the cores), but dsync still hangs on some accounts. After a certain time dsync exit with an error like that : Panic: file dsync-worker-local.c: line 1688 (local_worker_save_msg_continue): assertion failed: (ret == -1) dsync-remote(E072184L): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x3fd8a) [0x7f34fc577d8a] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(default_fatal_handler+0x32) [0x7f34fc577e72] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_error+0) [0x7f34fc55119f] -> dsync() [0x40ff0b] -> dsync() [0x410142] -> dsync(dsync_worker_msg_save+0x99) [0x40f639] -> dsync() [0x40e24a] -> dsync() [0x40d8ef] -> dsync() [0x40dbfc] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x48) [0x7f34fc5830d8] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0x9f) [0x7f34fc58403f] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x28) [0x7f34fc583068] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(master_service_run+0x13) [0x7f34fc5713a3] -> dsync(main+0x9e1) [0x4078b1] -> /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xfd) [0x7f34fbde9c4d] -> dsync() [0x406cf9] This is on a RUNNNING server. My aim was to make some pass on the running server, then stop it and make a last pass to finish the process. Is dsync supposed to run only on a stopped server ? Is my approach totally wrong ? -- Yann Dupont - Service IRTS, DSI Université de Nantes Tel : 02.53.48.49.20 - Mail/Jabber : Yann.Dupont(a)univ-nantes.fr

[Dovecot] sql dict: commit failed: MySQL server has gone away
by Mark Zealey 08 Dec '11

Following on from this thread: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2010-September/052704.html <https://owa2010.webfusion.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=a447887e3d204944a8c766142df4…> in 2.0.16 I am seeing the same issues. I believe this would be related to some timeouts set on our mysql servers which are pretty low (30 or 60 seconds or so to drop idle connections). This is happening for imap, pop and lmtp processes when they try to update quotas stored in a mysql database; presumably it is the dict process that actually has these issues - the lmtp delivery isn't lasting longer than 1 second so shouldn't be seeing any timeouts there. This is always followed by the "Error: dict quota: Quota update failed, it's now desynced" line; presumably it is telling the truth but I'm not sure how I could tell. We are also seeing this "MySQL server has gone away" issue in login processes but it isn't causing an issue there as presumably dovecot transparently retries rather than just giving up as it seems to in the quota updates. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated. Mark

[Dovecot] POP3/IMAP crash signal 10
by Patrick Wood 08 Dec '11

08 Dec '11

Hi, I'm building a Postfix/Dovecot mail server and while I am able to send/receive emails using telnet, after establishing a connection to Dovecot via a client (Mail Live, Thunderbird etc) the following appears in the logs: Nov 28 14:11:02 mailserver dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.info] pop3-login: Login: user=<user(a)domain.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, mpid=282 78 Nov 28 14:11:02 mailserver dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.error] master: Error: service(pop3-login): child 28277 killed with signal 10 (core not dumped - set service pop3-log in { drop_priv_before_exec=yes }) Nov 28 14:11:02 mailserver dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.info] pop3(user(a)domain.com): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/5, size=3250 I also experience very poor connectivity to the server, with Microsoft Mail and Thunderbird regularly failing to connect (connection errors in the client and no login attempt in the dovecot logs). I assume this is related to the issue above. I am running dovecot 2.0.16 on Solaris 10 SPARC using a ZFS filesystem for mailbox storage. Here is my configuration: # 2.0.16: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: SunOS 5.10 sun4u zfs auth_mechanisms = plain login disable_plaintext_auth = no mail_location = maildir:/storage0/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir mail_plugins = quota passdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=1G } postmaster_address = root(a)domain.com sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota quota imap_quota } protocol lda { mail_plugins = quota quota } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = quota quota pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh } I'm tearing my hair out! Hopefully someone can see something I'm missing
