Hi I've just compiled dovecot under Slitaz, but I can't get it to run... It always die with this message in log : 2010-05-06 12:35:12 dovecot: Info: Dovecot v1.2.11 starting up 2010-05-06 12:35:12 dovecot: Fatal: setrlimit(RLIMIT_DATA, 256): Operation not permitted 2010-05-06 12:35:12 dovecot: Error: child 1455 (auth) returned error 89 (Fatal failure) 2010-05-06 12:35:12 dovecot: Fatal: Auth process died too early - shutting down here is my "dovecot -n" : # 1.2.11: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.30.6-slitaz i686 login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot/imap-login auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd It's the dovecot-example.conf.

[Dovecot] Dovecot and /dev/shm
by DJ GRP 22 May '10

22 May '10

Hi, I have tried to use /dev/shm for Dovecot's index files: > mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=/dev/shm/%u But it does not seem to like it. May 21 07:13:59 IMAP(user): Error: stat(/dev/shm/user/.imap/INBOX) failed: Permission denied (euid=1234(user) egid=500(group) missing +x perm: /dev/shm) It seems to me that /dev/shm permissions are OK. Any suggestions on how to achieve this?

[Dovecot] Patch for logging variables
by James Devine 20 May '10

20 May '10

Upon thinking, the variable names may not be descriptive enough as `host` is a bit ambiguous and `deleted_count` may refer to a different command than expunge in imap and may be valid to track at some point so I have changed `host` to `client_ip` and `deleted_count` in imap to `expunged_count`, below is the modified diff for version 1.2.11. diff -crB dovecot-1.2.11.orig/src/imap/client.c dovecot-1.2.11/src/imap/client.c *** dovecot-1.2.11.orig/src/imap/client.c 2010-01-24 16:14:17.000000000 -0700 --- dovecot-1.2.11/src/imap/client.c 2010-05-20 09:30:47.170407921 -0600 *************** *** 42,47 **** --- 42,48 ---- client->fd_out = fd_out; client->input = i_stream_create_fd(fd_in, imap_max_line_length, FALSE); client->output = o_stream_create_fd(fd_out, (size_t)-1, FALSE); + client->expunged = 0; o_stream_set_flush_callback(client->output, client_output, client); *************** *** 105,110 **** --- 106,113 ---- static struct var_expand_table static_tab[] = { { 'i', NULL, "input" }, { 'o', NULL, "output" }, + { 'c', NULL, "client_ip" }, + { 'e', NULL, "expunged_count" }, { '\0', NULL, NULL } }; struct var_expand_table *tab; *************** *** 115,120 **** --- 118,125 ---- tab[0].value = dec2str(client->input->v_offset); tab[1].value = dec2str(client->output->offset); + tab[2].value = getenv("IP") ? getenv("IP") : "Unknown"; + tab[3].value = dec2str(client->expunged); str = t_str_new(128); var_expand(str, logout_format, tab); diff -crB dovecot-1.2.11.orig/src/imap/client.h dovecot-1.2.11/src/imap/client.h *** dovecot-1.2.11.orig/src/imap/client.h 2009-06-26 22:49:34.000000000 -0600 --- dovecot-1.2.11/src/imap/client.h 2010-05-19 16:26:31.529833893 -0600 *************** *** 133,138 **** --- 133,139 ---- unsigned int destroyed:1; unsigned int handling_input:1; unsigned int syncing:1; + unsigned int expunged; unsigned int id_logged:1; unsigned int mailbox_examined:1; unsigned int input_skip_line:1; /* skip all the data until we've diff -crB dovecot-1.2.11.orig/src/imap/cmd-close.c dovecot-1.2.11/src/imap/cmd-close.c *** dovecot-1.2.11.orig/src/imap/cmd-close.c 2010-01-24 16:14:17.000000000 -0700 --- dovecot-1.2.11/src/imap/cmd-close.c 2010-05-19 16:26:31.529833893 -0600 *************** *** 18,24 **** client->mailbox = NULL; storage = mailbox_get_storage(mailbox); ! if ((ret = imap_expunge(mailbox, NULL)) < 0) client_send_untagged_storage_error(client, storage); if (mailbox_sync(mailbox, 0, 0, NULL) < 0) client_send_untagged_storage_error(client, storage); --- 18,24 ---- client->mailbox = NULL; storage = mailbox_get_storage(mailbox); ! if ((ret = imap_expunge(client, NULL)) < 0) client_send_untagged_storage_error(client, storage); if (mailbox_sync(mailbox, 0, 0, NULL) < 0) client_send_untagged_storage_error(client, storage); diff -crB dovecot-1.2.11.orig/src/imap/cmd-expunge.c dovecot-1.2.11/src/imap/cmd-expunge.c *** dovecot-1.2.11.orig/src/imap/cmd-expunge.c 2010-01-24 16:14:17.000000000 -0700 --- dovecot-1.2.11/src/imap/cmd-expunge.c 2010-05-19 16:26:31.529833893 -0600 *************** *** 24,30 **** { struct client *client = cmd->client; ! if (imap_expunge(client->mailbox, search_args == NULL ?

[Dovecot] Dovecot LDAP problems
by Adam Pardy 20 May '10

20 May '10

I'm currently trying to configure a linux mailserver running centos to use an xserve running snow leopard. I am configuring the mailserver to run dovecot,sendmail,clamav,spam assassin and squirrelmail so it matches those used by the mac. The problem I am having is that I cannot get the server to authenticate properly to the macs LDAP database. As far as I can tell it is either a problem authenticating passwords or username and passwords. mail.app says its the password it cant authenticate Thunderbird says it could be either. It seems to be a problem in dovecot-ldap.conf, (as I can run ldapsearch from the linux server authenticate correctly and gain user information) What I'd like to know is there a standard set of settings required to authenticate to the LDAP on the mac? I'm currently running the od with no requirements for Kerberos, SSL or anything else it can authenticate with plain passwords (it will be once it is implemented I'm trying to have as few variables as possible at the moment). Copy of dovecot-ldap.conf below; 1. This file is opened as root, so it should be owned by root and mode 0600. # 1. http://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP # 1. NOTE: If you're not using authentication binds, you'll need to give 2. dovecot-auth read access to userPassword field in the LDAP server. 3. With OpenLDAP this is done by modifying /etc/ldap/slapd.conf. There should 4. already be something like this: 1. access to attribute=userPassword 2. by dn="<dovecot's dn>" read # add this 3. by anonymous auth 4. by self write 5. by * none 1. Space separated list of LDAP hosts to use. host:port is allowed too. hosts =hostname.com 1. LDAP URIs to use. You can use this instead of hosts list. Note that this 2. setting isn't supported by all LDAP libraries. #uris = 1. Distinguished Name - the username used to login to the LDAP server dn= uid=wmuser,cn=#####,dc=##,dc=###########,dc=### 1. Password for LDAP server dnpass = password 1. Use SASL binding instead of the simple binding. Note that this changes 2. ldap_version automatically to be 3 if it's lower. Also note that SASL binds 3. and auth_bind=yes don't work together. #sasl_bind = no 1. SASL mechanism name to use. #sasl_mech = 1. SASL realm to use. #sasl_realm = 1. SASL authorization ID, ie. the dnpass is for this "master user", but the 2. dn is still the logged in user. Normally you want to keep this empty. #sasl_authz_id = 1. Use TLS to connect to the LDAP server. #tls = no 1. Use authentication binding for verifying password's validity. This works by 2. logging into LDAP server using the username and password given by client. 3. The pass_filter is used to find the DN for the user. Note that the pass_attrs 4. is still used, only the password field is ignored in it. Before doing any 5. search, the binding is switched back to the default DN. auth_bind = yes 1. If authentication binding is used, you can save one LDAP request per login 2. if users' DN can be specified with a common template. The template can use 3. the standard %variables (see user_filter). Note that you can't 4. use any pass_attrs if you use this setting. # 1. If you use this setting, it's a good idea to use a different 2. dovecot-ldap.conf for userdb (it can even be a symlink, just as long as the 3. filename is different in userdb's args). That way one connection is used only 4. for LDAP binds and another connection is used for user lookups. Otherwise 5. the binding is changed to the default DN before each user lookup. # 1. For example: auth_bind_userdn = cn=%u,cn=users,dc=##,dc=###########,dc=### # #auth_bind_userdn = 1. LDAP protocol version to use. Likely 2 or 3. ldap_version = 3 1. LDAP base. %variables can be used here. base = dc=##, dc=###########, dc=### 1. Dereference: never, searching, finding, always #deref = never 1. Search scope: base, onelevel, subtree #scope = subtree 1. User attributes are given in LDAP-name=dovecot-internal-name list. The 2. internal names are: 3. uid - System UID 4. gid - System GID 5. home - Home directory 6. mail - Mail location # 1. There are also other special fields which can be returned, see 2. http://wiki.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/ExtraFields user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uidNumber=uid,gidNumber=gid 1. Filter for user lookup. Some variables can be used (see 2. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables for full list): 3. %u - username 4. %n - user part in user@domain, same as %u if there's no domain 5. %d - domain part in user@domain, empty if user there's no domain user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) 1. Password checking attributes: 2. user: Virtual user name (user@domain), if you wish to change the 3. user-given username to something else 4. password: Password, may optionally start with {type}, eg. {crypt} 5. There are also other special fields which can be returned, see 6. http://wiki.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password 1. If you wish to avoid two LDAP lookups (passdb + userdb), you can use 2. userdb prefetch instead of userdb ldap in dovecot.conf. In that case you'll 3. also have to include user_attrs in pass_attrs field prefixed with "userdb_" 4. string. For example: #pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password 1. Filter for password lookups pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) 1. Default password scheme. "{scheme}" before password overrides this. 2. List of supported schemes is in: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication default_pass_scheme = PLAIN 1. You can use same UID and GID for all user accounts if you really want to. 2. If the UID/GID is still found from LDAP reply, it overrides these values. #user_global_uid = #user_global_gid =

[Dovecot] LDAP against Novell eDirectory: 'Confidentiality required'

Hi list! I am trying to get dovecot to authenticate users against Novell eDirectory via LDAP. I have successfully gotten open-xchange to authenticate, and I have written a PHP module that authenticates, however I cannot seem to get Dovecot working.

[Dovecot] POP3 Problem with SPAM-Mail's over sieve
by Michael Niehren 20 May '10

20 May '10

Hi together, i am currently using dovecot 1.2.10 with the sieve-plugin and use a sieve-filter to sort the SPAM-Mail's directly into a Junk-Folder: require "fileinto"; # rule:[junkfilter] if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES" { fileinto "Junk"; } My problem is now, if i try to retrieve the Mails via POP3, i did not get the SPAM-Mail's in the Junk-Folder, only the normal ones, that are not filtered over the sieve plugin. Could anyone tell me how to solve that issue ? best regards Michael -- Michael Niehren __ _ powered by / / (_)__ __ ____ __ / /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / /____/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\

hi, we have IMAP and SMTP (sendmail(solaris)) on different hosts. Sendmail delivers Mails via LMTP to Cyrus and Cyrus puts the mails into the (hopefully) right box. Now I want to replace the Cyrus host with Dovecot. I've searched a bit in Google but there isn't much about LMTP via TCP in combination with DoveCot. Version 2 seems to be get the feature, but we have round about 5k users, so beta is no choice. Also I red something about maidag (mailutils from Gnu) that could do the Job, but maybe there is a better way. I do not want to install Postfix (or any other SMTP service) on that IMAP Server. So I'm asking is there anybody who has the same construct. Important is, that Quota full etc. messages (RFC) gets back to sendmail, so that the MTA reject the mails, before accepting. cu denny
