[Dovecot] RV: Quota ignore subfolders
by Héctor Moreno Blanco 03 Jan '11

Please, any help with this issue. Thanks. Héctor Moreno Blanco. -----Mensaje original----- De: dovecot-bounces+hmoreno=gmv.es(a)dovecot.org [mailto:dovecot-bounces+hmoreno=gmv.es@dovecot.org] En nombre de Héctor Moreno Blanco Enviado el: miércoles, 15 de diciembre de 2010 12:48 Para: dovecot(a)dovecot.org Asunto: [Dovecot] Quota ignore subfolders Hello, We have dovecot 2.0.8 in our servers with Scientific Linux SL release 5.2 (Boron). We want to ignore a mailbox and its child mailboxes. A few weeks ago Timo told me to do this in dovecot.conf, create a new namespace which will be the quotaless namespace and edit the quota: namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = INBOX. separator = . type = private } namespace { location = maildir:%h/Maildir/carpeta1 prefix = carpeta1. separator = . type = private } plugin { quota = maildir:carpeta1:ns=INBOX. quota_warning = storage=75%% /usr/local/dovecot/bin/quota-warning.sh 75 quota_warning2 = storage=90%% /usr/local/dovecot/bin/quota-warning.sh 90 } We also have passdb and userdb with ldap, with dovecot-ldap.conf: pass_filter = (&(objectClass=qmailUser)(uid=%u)(accountActive=TRUE)) pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password, mailQuotaSize=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$ user_attrs = mailMessageStore=home, mailQuotaSize=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$ user_filter = (&(objectClass=qmailUser)(|(mailAlternateAddress=%u)(mail=%u)(uid=%u))(accountActive=TRUE)) We also tried the easy solution which was to indicate a quota rule in order to ignore the mailbox but with no success. It still get every mailbox to calculate the quota. We set mail_debug=yes to see if there was any error, but everything seemed to be ok. Any suggestions? Thank you very much in advanced.

[Dovecot] Dovecot Quota plugin as Couier quota
by Antonio Perez-Aranda 03 Jan '11

03 Jan '11

I get a similar behavior between dovecot quota plugin and courier quota with the attached patch. When the client change flags, then is forced to recalc. This is because I don't know how to get the changed flags on quota sync method. The courier quota behavior is avoid to count all deleted mails, include "mark as deleted" mails. -- Antonio Pérez-Aranda Alcaide aperezaranda(a)yaco.es Yaco Sistemas S.L. http://www.yaco.es/ C/ Rioja 5, 41001 Sevilla Teléfono +34 954 50 00 57 Fax +34 954 50 09 29

[Dovecot] lmtp (xxx@mydomain.yy): Error: user xxx@mydomain.yy: Initialization failed: Namespace '': mbox: mbox requires client_limit=1 for service
by G.Nau 02 Jan '11

02 Jan '11

new Dovecot 2.0.8 installation on Opensuse 11.3 I got the error "lmtp (xxx(a)mydomain.yy) Error: user xxx(a)mydomain.yy: Initialization failed: Namespace '': mbox: mbox requires client_limit=1 for service" while trying to transfer mails by lmtp from postfix to dovecot. I googled and looked on the dovecot wiki about this client_limit issue, but no success. What's the syntax of the client_limit and where to place it? Into which config file? Inside the global namespace doesn't seems to work (error on dovecot start). -What's the side effect of this setting to my IMAP clients? Are multiple imap connections to the same mailbox still possible? Regards Birte Nauer

[Dovecot] listescape breaks acl plugin
by Jens 02 Jan '11

02 Jan '11

Hi all Without the listescape plugin I see the following things happen: - If I share a mailbox, dovecot-acl-list in Maildir root is updated accordingly. - If I create a subfolder in an already shared mailbox the dovecot-acl file of the parent folder is copied to the new folder and dovecot-acl-list is updated as well. When I activate the "listescape" plugin, this doesn´t happen. Additionally (with listescape enabled), if I create a folder which contains a dot and then share that folder the dovecot-acl-list looses all entries except the first found shared folder without a dot in foldername. I Hope this is not a bug but only a configuration issue. Thanks for any hints in advance and best Regards Jens

[Dovecot] Shared Folders via Symlinking
by Adrian Mardlin 01 Jan '11

01 Jan '11

Hi folks, I'm trying to set up shared folders via symlinking and have come across a problem. I created a folder for one user, then symlinked it to another. I figured that one thing that is likely to happen at some point is that user 2 is going to decide they don't want to look at that folder any more, and will delete it, so I tried this. Much to my relief, it didn't delete the actual mails, just the symlink. However, it did alter the dovecot.index.cache file to indicate that the folder had been removed, and subsequent attempts to select this folder via the primary user resulted in an error, "NO Mailbox was deleted under us". I had to delete dovecot.index.cache to get it working again. Sorry - can't bring myself to call folders mailboxes... ;-) Adrian Mardlin in charge @ The Very Good Email Company t 01442 892641 m 07920 102401 f 01442 808081 w www.verygoodemail.com The content of this email and any attachment is private and may be legally privileged.

[Dovecot] Sieve rule issue with certain character sets
by Thomas Leuxner 01 Jan '11

01 Jan '11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have a global sieve rule in place to filter mailing-lists. This has worked well so far. Recently however one subscriber on a list seems to create strange character set encodings in the 'From' and 'To' headers. This leads to unprocessed/unfiltered mails (no errors thrown). Is this a configuration or Pigeonhole issue (latest HG used)? Headers from failing mail: From: "=?UTF-8?B?VG9yaW50aGllbA==?=" <user(a)domain.tld> To: "=?UTF-8?B?ImJpbmQtdXNlcnNAbGlzdHMuaXNjLm9yZyI=?=" <bind-users(a)lists.isc.org> Relevant sieve rule: if allof (address :is ["To","CC"] ["bind-users(a)lists.isc.org","bind-users(a)isc.org","comp-protocols-dns-bind(a)isc.org"], header :contains "List-Id" "bind-users.lists.isc.org") { fileinto "Public/Mailing-Lists/Bind-Users"; } Regards Thomas -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.16 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAk0dvZ4ACgkQ+meF/S97aXgYTACfZC70bsYn3d4/VRY2GfK5lF0k xOIAnRsBliv9EErA919vc5KoTAHhq3rC =IE3C -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2.12 + Postfix + virtual domains: delivering to system users
by Ran Talbott 01 Jan '11

01 Jan '11

As mentioned in my previous posting, I've set up a mailserver for a domain of Winboxen, authenticated through Active Directory. After some struggles, I finally got that working. But I also need to receive emails for a few system users on the mailserver (like postmaster, and a couple of accounts set up for maintaining the system). I thought, based on the way I read the documentation, that I could just add a "userdb passwd", ahead of the "userdb ldap", and deliver would find their home directory maildirs. The virtual users would fail the passwd search, fall through to the LDAP check, and deliver would drop their mail into their maildirs in the /var/mailstore tree. I knew the system users wouldn't be able to login to the IMAP server, but this isn't a concern. Instead, the system users' mail got bounced, after an auth check via the "master" socket (from Postfix, I guess: it's a transient process) whose details don't get logged. And the virtual users' lookups (done by deliver) returned made-up UIDs and GIDs, and maildir locations (/home/<realm>/<username>) completely different from what the LDAP lookup normally returns (/var/mailstore/<username>). So what am I missing here? I managed to work around this by adding the system users to the Postfix virtual.db, but it would be nice to not need to do that. It would also be nice to neable the system users to check email by logging in to the IMAP serve, but I'm reluctant to even try that after the way delivery went completely wonky. Thanks, Ran

[Dovecot] Can doveadm rebuild thread indexes?
by David Warden 30 Dec '10

30 Dec '10

I'm already using "doveadm search" to update my squat fts indexes (dovecot.index.search and dovecot.index.search.uids) but I'd like to also update dovecot's thread index file (dovecot.index.thread) using doveadm. I checked the new wiki and the archives but didn't see any option for this. (I'm running 2.0.8) The alternative (AFAIK) is to write a script that signs in to IMAP and does "thread references UTF-8 ALL" in each folder. As an aside, could the dovecot LDA do any of this work? I'd surely be willing to spend the resources at delivery time to keep those indexes updated if it meant I didn't have to run a cron job to keep them updated. -David Warden

[Dovecot] LDAP binds
by Trever L. Adams 30 Dec '10

30 Dec '10

I am using 2.0.8. Anonymous binds are no longer supported in the environment I am using. I need to change my userdb ldap setup to bind. I believe the ldap server does Kerberos (or can) authentication. My users are authenticating using Kerberos or Kerberos/PAM. This needs to stay in place. Can anyone suggest how I might go about changing my setup to work? My current ldap setup is as follows (the directories, user id, etc are set statically in the configuration elsewhere): tls = yes hosts = MAILSERVER base = dc=middleearth,dc=sapphiresunday,dc=org ldap_version = 3 user_attrs = userPrincipalName=user user_filter = (&(objectClass=person)(|(mail=%u)(sAMAccountName=%u)(userPrincipalName=%u))) # For using doveadm -A: iterate_attrs = userPrincipalName=user iterate_filter = (objectClass=person) Thank you, Trever Adams -- "Seize the day, put no trust in the morrow!" -- Quintus Horatius Flaccus (Horace)
