Hi, I am reinstalling my server and i have encoutered a strange problem, both dovecot 2.0.13 and 1.2.16 are reporting me a problem with fd_send Invalid argument on imap login. I am running dragonfly bsd 2.10.1., compiled dovecot from pkgsrc. Can someone help me out or at least point me in some direction, i am a bit lost... :( Aug 15 10:01:00 master: Info: Dovecot v2.0.13 starting up Aug 15 10:01:10 auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/pkg/lib/dovecot/auth Aug 15 10:01:10 auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=1206) Aug 15 10:01:10 auth: Debug: client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=imap secured lip=127.0.0.1 rip=127.0.0.1 lport=143 rport=1032 resp=x Aug 15 10:01:10 auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/pkg/lib/dovecot/auth Aug 15 10:01:10 auth: Debug: passwd(y,127.0.0.1): lookup Aug 15 10:01:10 auth: Debug: client out: OK 1 user=y Aug 15 10:01:10 imap-login: Error: fd_send(imap, 15) failed: Invalid argument Aug 15 10:01:10 auth: Debug: client in: CANCEL 1 Aug 15 10:01:10 imap-login: Info: Internal login failure (pid=1206 id=1) (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<y>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Aug 15 11:01:27 master: Warning: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=0 uid=0 code=kill) Aug 16 01:55:45 dovecot: Info: Dovecot v1.2.16 starting up Aug 16 01:56:35 imap-login: Fatal: fd_send(10) failed: Invalid argument Aug 16 08:22:29 dovecot: Warning: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=0 uid=0 code=kill) Aug 16 08:22:31 dovecot: Info: Dovecot v1.2.16 starting up Aug 16 08:22:48 imap-login: Fatal: fd_send(10) failed: Invalid argument

[Dovecot] Slackware Dovecot recompile with SSL/TLS question
by CopalFreak 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

I am having some problems and was told to ask in this list to try and get some help. When asking elsewhere, I was told that I was too verbose, so I'll try to be as brief as possible, while still including all the pertinent info. Slackware 13.1.0 Dovecot 2.0.8 Postfix 2.4.3 MySQL (virtual users) Spamassassin 3.3.1 ClamAV 0.97.1 (without Amavis) Have wild-card SSL certs and CA from GoDaddy ##"postconf -a" >> cyrus >> dovecot I compiled Dovecot without SASL support and need to re-compile it WITH SASL support, but I don't want to mess up my existing configuration. (I have it the way I want it as far as where it's installed, where the conf files are located, UID, GID settings, etc.) Dovecot 2.0.13 is out and I would prefer to use the newer version assuming it doesn't have any problems that would prevent me from using it. Is there a way to re-compile (or upgrade) so that it doesn't change any of my existing settings? I would like to be able to bring it down, do upgrade, maybe copy some config files over the defaults etc, and bring it all back up within a few minutes instead of a week of tweaking and fixing stuff. Is there a way to do something like this : stop dovecot backup all dovecot conf files ./configure CPPFLAGS=-I/path/to/openssl LDFLAGS=-L/path/to/openssl --config_dir /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf (or something like that..not sure what it actually is) make sudo make install edit conf files to point to SSL certs start dovecot IN CASE anything goes wrong, copy old config files back and restart dovecot to make it go back the way it was (only it's using the new 2.0.13 version) any suggestions and/or tips on how-to do this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

[Dovecot] Sieve include
by Andrea Cappelli 16 Aug '11

Hi, I'm using dovecot 1.2.15 with ISPConfig and Roundcube with sieve plugin. To avoid conflicts between ISPConfig and Roundcube during script writing I would use include in the ISPconfig template to use the roundcube script To simplify this task I'm wondering if there is a way to have a "star include", like include :personal "*.sieve"; Thank you Andrea

[Dovecot] mbox originally needed 0 bytes, now needs maxint bytes
by Mike Brown 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

I'm running dovecot 1.2.16 from the ports collection on FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE, amd64. I've long been getting the following in my logs, seemingly at random (so, only sometimes), when I access or move mail into mboxes: Aug 16 00:43:58 myhost dovecot: IMAP(mike): mbox /home/mike/mail/feedback: seq=88 uid=91 uid_broken=0 originally needed 0 bytes, now needs 18446744073709551615 bytes Whatever I'm trying to do always succeeds, but apparently dovecot is confused about something. That number (2^64-1) suggests it has to do with the amd64 architecture. Did a compile option get overlooked? Let me know if there's anything I need to do to get rid of these warnings. Thanks, Mike

[Dovecot] imap-login aborted login
by Daminto Lie 16 Aug '11

Hi, I have been trying to set up Apache2, Postfix, Dovecot, openLDAP and squirrelmail on my Ubuntu Server 10.04 machine. The idea is to make use of the LDAP to authenticate users to login to squirrelmail to send/receive emails. I have been using the link - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix/DovecotLDAP, as a guide to get it all set up. I have checked the status for postfix and dovecot, and they both are up and running by using telnet. I have even installed openldapadmin to check and see if I've got the ldap working. I could login to openldapadmin and saw myself there with uid=msmith. I have also installed squirrelmail as my webmail. After all that installed, I went to localhost/squirrelmail on the firefox browser. It would not log me in. Later I found in the /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log file, I saw the following messages dovecot: Info: Dovecot v1.2.9 starting up (core dumps disabled) imap-login: Info: Aborted login (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<msmith>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured imap-login: Info: Aborted login (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<msmith(a)mycompany.com.au>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured imap-login: Info: Aborted login (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<mike.smith(a)mycompany.com.au>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured I tried to login with three different usernames but none worked as shown above in the log file. I wonder if it is to do with method=PLAIN and secured. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

[Dovecot] Last login script
by Munroe Sollog 15 Aug '11

15 Aug '11

I am trying to implement a last login script, however I seem to be having lots of issues. We started with sqlite but we were having locking issues, so we moved to postgresql which seems to have alleviated database specific issues, but now people are complaining about randomly not being able to log in. I don't see any real errors in the logs (dovecot or postgresql) to explain their complaints though, all I am really getting is "Connection closed" here is the log line of a failed attempt (with debug output): http://pastebin.com/5RFgVa8V and here is what we are running as the 'mail executable': http://pastebin.com/L0ibyqSQ Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

[Dovecot] LMTP over STDIN/STDOUT (non root user)
by Andrzej Adam Filip 15 Aug '11

15 Aug '11

Is it possible to get LMTP session over STDIN/STDOUT (for non root user)? I have configured dovecot to allow "server less" access to my mailbox using IMAP over STDIN/STDOUT. I would like to complete the setup by making fetchmail deliver fetched messages via LMTP over STDIN/STDOUT. -- [pl>en: Andrew] Andrzej Adam Filip : anfi(a)onet.eu There is only one way to kill capitalism -- by taxes, taxes, and more taxes. -- Karl Marx

[Dovecot] [PATCH] net_connect_*(): Wait for fd to complete connect(2) when fd is non-blocking
by SATOH Fumiyasu 15 Aug '11

15 Aug '11

Hi, Dovecot ignores EINPROGRESS on connect(2) for non-blocking fd. This is wrong. After that, read(2) to fd (or write(2) to fd) fails with ENOTCONN if the connection of fd is not completed. The attached patch fixes this problem. -- -- Name: SATOH Fumiyasu (fumiyas @ osstech co jp) -- Business Home: http://www.OSSTech.co.jp/ -- Personal Home: http://www.SFO.jp/blog/
