[Dovecot] Sieve mails with decoded subject
by Johannes Bauer 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Dear all, I accidently posted this message to dovecot-news and want to apologize for any trouble I may have caused. Here it is again to the correct mailing list: Recently I'm getting a ton of porn/viagra/diet/casino spam mails which I tried to filter with sieve: if header :contains "Subject" [ "[SPAM]", "Bett", "Schlafzimmer", "Spielen", "Luder", "abhenmen", "poppen", "Casino", "Bonus", "abnehmen", "Gewinn", "Potenz" ] { addflag "\\seen"; fileinto "Spam"; stop; } Sadly, this didn't work - taking a closer look upon one of the spam mails, it seems the spamming rats have encoded the subject: Subject: =?US-ASCII?B?RW5kbGljaCBtZWhyIGVuZ2FnZW1lbnQgaW0gQmV0dGNoZW4=?= (reads: "Endlich mehr engagement im Bettchen") I'm thinking about filtering all such encoded subjects (as there's no reason to encode them US-ASCII), but suppose it were UTF-8 or something: how can I filter on the actual content, not the encoded subject? Surely someone has solved that problem already? Kind regards, Johannes

[Dovecot] Mail root to root and permissions problem
by Antonello Onida 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi all! I got a Debian with postfix-dovecot-spamassassin. I got a non perfect installation: when an internal mail has been sent i got this error: <error> ex: from root@* to root@*. Command output: Can't open log file /var/log/dovecot.log: Permission denied </error> Operations like "dovecot: 2009-12-15 11:17:24 Warning: Killed with signal 15" are writen. It's a permission problem: dovecot.log is owned by "root" and grupped by "adm" (chmodded 640). Where is the problem? I'm really blind now! Tx 4 suggestions! Bye, Antonello

[Dovecot] Is it possible to change service name of managesieve service?
by Zhang Huangbin 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi, list. In dovecot-1.2, managesieve is identified as 'sieve' service while use '%s'[1] in dovecot. Is it possible to change it? Because we store it in SQL/LDAP as 'managesieve' service name, we don't want to change this. Thanks [1] http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables -- Best Regards.

[Dovecot] commercial help

Contact info * Author: Timo Sirainen, tss(a)iki.fi <mailto:tss@iki.fi>. * Please use the Dovecot mailing list <http://www.dovecot.org/mailinglists.html> for questions about Dovecot. You don't have to subscribe to it. * Depending on your needs, commercial support may be available. Send a mail if you're interested. according to the above (from the dovecot.org webpage), "commercial support may be available". After spending the better part of today trying unsuccessfully, I am ready to "Send a mail if you're interested". But I do not know WHO to send it to. Likely Timo, but I do not want to be presumptuous. I am on FreeBSD with Dovecot 1.2.4 I need to have both POP3 & IMAP working to replace vm-pop3d (which was POP3 only). Local users are: mbox:/home/%u/mail/:INBOX=/mail/%u with password in /etc/passwd Virtual users (which vm-pop3d handled readily) are mbox:/home/VIRTUAL/%d/%u:INBOX/mail/VIRTUAL/%d/%u with password in /exim/etc/VIRTUAL/%d/passwd It is worth it to me to pay a knowledgeable person to create the correct conf file to make this happen. Who should I contact? Thanks, Jim Pazarena

[Dovecot] User friendly vacation service
by Raymond Lillard 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Dear Dovecot list, I maintain a few small sendmail/dovecot/procmail based mail servers with system users only (no virtual domains or virtual users) on OpenBSD. I have been able to get a vacation system working with both with the native vacation program from OpenBSD and with procmail. I've been looking into dovecot sieve, but it doesn't appear to solve the bigger user complaint which is, they want to be able to control the vacation feature w/o my involvement. What is wanted is a system where the users can send a control mail message to themselves with the reply body in the message or failing that perhaps a secure web page to control the vacation function. Mail administration is NOT a full time job for me. I'm looking for simple, low overhead solutions. Any suggestions? Thanks for your time. Ray

[Dovecot] Problem with dovecot-sieve and russian
by Andrew A. Polyakov 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hello I have a problem with dovecot-sieve. When I create a folder in russian, the filter is not working properly. It creates a new folder with the same name and delivers the letter there. For example, I created a folder called &BD8EQAQ4BDIENQRC-/, but the letter got in &-BD8EQAQ4BDIENQRC-/. In all cases, the difference in the sign -. The folders in the english language is no problem. # uname -mrs FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p3 i386 # pkg_info | grep dovecot dovecot-1.2.8 dovecot-managesieve-0.11.9 dovecot-sieve-1.2+0.1.13 sieve rule: # rule:[test] elsif anyof (header :contains "Subject" "test") { fileinto "&BD8EQAQ4BDIENQRC-"; } -- С уважением, Андрей А.

[Dovecot] Doubts about namespace && thunderbird.
by Beto Moreno 14 Dec '09

14 Dec '09

Hi people. I ask this because I'm confuse about the namespace stuff. I setup a server with Centos 5.4(updated)+dovecot 1.0.7+postfix 2.3.3. We use thunderbird 2.0.x as our default email client. I want to use courier-imap inbox layout: Inbox-- sent junk trash draft The inbox as father of the tree, other post say something about a namespace like this: separator = . prefix = Inbox. inbox = yes If I make this, thunderbird go crazy and tell me each time I try to access a user mail that :server respond-->unknown namespace, with this my layout is: Inbox Trash But if I try to access Trash, is went he send me that error and none of my users could access those folders. What is the problem with this? Now if I comment the namespace, my folders goes below the father(Inbox) u could not see the different. Last thing, how can I setup a global layout where each user the first time they log-in thunderbird could make: Trash, Draft, Sent? Thanks!!!
