[Dovecot] FS Quota broken for delivering BIG message
by Kostik 16 Oct '09

16 Oct '09

Hi everybody. I have Linux file system quota for users and enabled "fs quota" and quota plugin for LDA. My test user is already deep over quoted: --- Filesystem blocks quota limit nfse:/export 23768* 10240 10240 --- 1. If I tries to deliver _short_ message to user mbox - quota works: $ echo "123123123123" | /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d koc --- Quota root: name=Quota backend=fs args=group:mount=/var/virtual/home/I/I/koc Quota rule: root=Quota mailbox=* bytes=10383360 messages=0 mbox: data=~/:INBOX=/var/virtual/mail/I/I/koc:INDEX=MEMORY fs: root=/var/virtual/home/I/I/koc, index=, control=, inbox=/var/virtual/mail/I/I/koc fs quota add storage dir = /var/virtual/home/I/I/koc fs quota block device = nfse:/export fs quota mount point = /mount/m5 quota-fs: host=nfse, path=/export, gid=5751796, bytes quota-fs: gid=5751796, value=24338432, limit=10485760, active=1 from=<>, msgid=: save failed to INBOX: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) from=<>, msgid=: rejected: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) msgid=: Return-Path missing, rejection reason: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) --- 2.

[Dovecot] Dovecot inactive after an intermittent connection with LDAP

Hello all, I'm facing the problem below: 1. Firstly, the connection between dovecot and ldap was down. dovecot: Oct 10 09:11:12 Info: auth(default): ldap(user1,x.x.x.x): Aborting (timeout), we're not connected to LDAP server dovecot: Oct 10 09:11:12 Info: auth(default): master out: USER 265490 user1 2.

And it still "pending" somehow to wait a response from dovecot. But when ldap is connected to the system, these pending connection (from user) is still pending .... so it makes the "request queue is full". Isn't it?

[Dovecot] Expire plugin: wrong mailbox separators in database?
by Andreas Ntaflos 16 Oct '09

16 Oct '09

Hi all, I'm experimenting with the expire plugin and seem have run into a small problem. I am using Dovecot 1.2.4 on a test server. The config is taken mostly verbatim from the expire plugin wiki page [1], using MySQL as a database. See below for detailed output. Namespace "private" has "/" configured as mailbox separator: namespace private { separator = / prefix = inbox = yes } The "expire =" section from dovecot.conf thus looks like this: plugin { expire = Trash 7 INBOX/Spam 8 INBOX/Spam/To-Discard 3 ... } Three mailboxes/folders are kept track of: Trash, INBOX/Spam and INBOX/Spam/Spam-To-Discard (this one holds messages that scored high enough to very unlikely be legitimate and should be deleted soon). But when a message is put into one of these folders the mailbox attribute of the expires table uses "." as mailbox separator: mysql> select * from expires; +-----------------+----------------------------+--------------+ | username | mailbox | expire_stamp | +-----------------+----------------------------+--------------+ | foo(a)example.org | INBOX.Spam.Spam-To-Discard | 1253114526 | | foo(a)example.org | INBOX.Spam | 1253114528 | +-----------------+----------------------------+--------------+ Consequently, expire-tool --test seems to choke on this: # dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool --test Info: foo(a)example.org/INBOX.Spam.Spam-To-Discard: \ mailbox 'INBOX.Spam.Spam-To-Discard' removed from config Info: foo(a)example.org/INBOX.Spam: mailbox 'INBOX.Spam' \ removed from config When I manually update the mailbox attribute to use "/" as separator expire-tool seems to work correctly: # dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/expire-tool --test Info: foo(a)example.org/INBOX/Spam/Spam-To-Discard: stop, expire \ time in future: Wed Sep 16 17:22:06 2009 Using "." as separator in the "expire =" line doesn't work either: the expires table isn't written to at all when a message is put in one of the specified folders. Presumably because INBOX/Spam is the real mailbox but INBOX.Spam is monitored by the expire plugin and there is no INBOX.Spam to put in messages. So I believe this is not the expected behaviour? Or am I doing anything wrong? I'd rather not change the separator from "/" to "." in all the namespaces if that can be avoided.

[Dovecot] Error (IMHO) with --with-doc option
by Jacek Osiecki 16 Oct '09

16 Oct '09

Hi, I was trying to create complete rpm package for my system, containing dovecot 1.2.5 intregrated with dovecot-sieve and dovecot-managesieve. Finally I succeeded and it works great, but I found something that might be treated as wrong behaviour... When you run ./configure --with-docs=no, Makefile does not build docs anymore, but... installs them anyway :) It caused some troubles because rpmbuild complained about documents moved to <buildroot>/usr/share/doc/dovecot I have created a small patch that fixes this - hope it doesn't introduce any mess: diff -Nur 2/Makefile.in 1/Makefile.in --- 2/Makefile.in 2009-09-29 00:17:22.000000000 +0200 +++ 1/Makefile.in 2009-09-29 00:17:38.000000000 +0200 @@ -75,7 +75,7 @@ distclean-recursive maintainer-clean-recursive ETAGS = etags CTAGS = ctags -DIST_SUBDIRS = src doc +DIST_SUBDIRS = $(SUBDIRS) DISTFILES = $(DIST_COMMON) $(DIST_SOURCES) $(TEXINFOS) $(EXTRA_DIST) distdir = $(PACKAGE)-$(VERSION) top_distdir = $(distdir) Best regards, -- Jacek Osiecki joshua(a)ceti.pl GG:3828944 I don't want something I need.

[Dovecot] Questions regarding dbox migration
by Mikkel 16 Oct '09

16 Oct '09

It has been my wish to move to dbox for a long time hoping to reduce the number of writes which is really killing us. Now I wonder what may be the best way of doing so. I'm considering some sort of intermediate migration where the existing Maildir users are changed to single-dbox and then later upgraded to 2.0 and changed to multi-dbox when it becomes stable. But is this a reasonable task to perform on a production system or at all? The alternative is to wait for 2.0 to become completely stable and then go all the way at once. I would however much prefer to take it one step at a time and I think it would be safer to start out with single-dbox as it appears less complex. Now the big question is whether multi-dbox and single-dbox are compatible formats. If a Maildir->dbox migration is made on a system running dovecot v. 1.1, would it then be trivial later changing to multi-dbox after upgrading to 2.0 or is a completely new migration then needed? Would this scenario be much different if the system is upgraded to version 1.2 before the change to single-dbox? Kind regards, Mikkel

[Dovecot] dovecot 1.2.6 fails to build with openssl < 0.9.8
by Paul Howarth 16 Oct '09

16 Oct '09

The update of ssl_proxy_get_security_string() in dovecot 1.2.6 has broken compatibility with openssl < 0.9.8 (e.g. on RHEL4) because the functions SSL_COMP_get_name and SSL_get_current_compression don't exist until openssl 0.9.8 (build fails at link time due to these symbols being unresolved). I've worked around this by reverting the function to the 1.2.5 version for now but I think a better solution would be to have a configure test for these functions and only include the SSL compression details when they're available. Cheers, Paul.
