mail# doveadm pw Enter new password: Retype new password: {CRYPT}$2y$05$oSB6end9V.YumJMzON7lfeOL9N8TXK6jhYqjHOEnPd1NLZ9.QNaTy I thought the default was supposed to be CRAM-MD5. I don't find anywhere I have entered CRYPT. There is one reference to it in auth-passwdfile.conf.ext, but changing that has no effect. Is this a bug, change, or my mistake?

Pigeonhole v0.5.16 released
by Timo Sirainen 06 Aug '21

06 Aug '21

Hi, Pigeonhole release for Dovecot v2.3.16. https://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3-pigeonhole-0.5.16.t… <https://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3-pigeonhole-0.5.16.t…> https://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3-pigeonhole-0.5.16.t… <https://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3-pigeonhole-0.5.16.t…> Binary packages in https://repo.dovecot.org/ <https://repo.dovecot.org/> Docker images in https://hub.docker.com/r/dovecot/dovecot <https://hub.docker.com/r/dovecot/dovecot> * .dovecot.sieve.log file now includes year in the header. * Change Sieve script result execution to delay definitive action execution to the end of a successful Sieve script execution session. This is part of an effort to solve problems with the Sieve duplicate test. As a side-effect, some rare temporary-error cases yield different results, in which partial failure is more likely.

Dovecot Debian repo instructions need updating
by Laura Smith 05 Aug '21

05 Aug '21

Re: https://doc.dovecot.org/installation_guide/dovecot_community_repositories/d… The instructions need updating for two reasons: 1) Keep up to date with Debian releases (https://wiki.debian.org/DebianReleases) i.e. remove reference to 8.0 "Jessie" and replace with 10.0 "Buster". 2) The instructions presented for key handling are not inline with Debian best-practices. As per https://wiki.debian.org/DebianRepository/UseThirdParty: "The key MUST be downloaded over a secure mechanism like HTTPS to a location only writable by root, which SHOULD be /usr/share/keyrings. The key MUST NOT be placed in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d or loaded by apt-key add. A sources.list entry SHOULD have the signed-by option set. The signed-by entry MUST point to a file, and not a fingerprint."

quota_grace

There isn't much documentation on quota_grace. How would you disable quota grace? quota_grace = 0 quota_grace = 0% quota_grace = 0m quota_grace = -1 Assuming "0" isn't an "unlimited" setting?

Is this a valid quota rule? *:storage=0,messages=0 Or do I need to make them two separate rules? Joseph D Wagner

Timo - is the v2.3.15 GCC limitation really necessarily or it's just a bug?
by Mart Pirita 02 Aug '21

02 Aug '21

Hello. So far I have successfully built Dovecot until v2.3.14 on Centos 4-6 (yes I know, they are old, but as they are remote servers, distros can't upgraded), and sometimes I have also met compilation issues, but after highlighting them, Timo have fixed the code. Found from similar thread (Dovecot 2.3.15 compilation fails https://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2021-June/122412.html ) that new GCC is needed. However I can't find such requirement in v2.3.15 change log. As seems that I'm not the only one with compilation issues, then @Timo - can You please fix the code so that also v2.3.15 can compiled on older distros? Compilation options: ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-ssl=openssl --with-ssldir=/etc/ssl --sysconfdir=/etc --with-pam --without-bsdauth --without-sql --without-nss --without-ldap --without-pgsql --without-mysql --without-sqlite --with-rundir=/var/run/dovecot --without-cassandra --without-lucene --without-solr --without-textcat --without-libcap --without-stemmer --disable-rpath --disable-dependency-tracking --disable-silent-rules --without-gssapi --without-cdb Compilation error: builtin-strftime -c -o test-smtp-params.o test-smtp-params.c test-smtp-params.c:29: error: unknown field `data' specified in initializer test-smtp-params.c:29: warning: missing braces around initializer test-smtp-params.c:29: warning: (near initialization for `test_params_buffer1.<anonymous>') test-smtp-params.c:30: warning: missing initializer test-smtp-params.c:30: warning: (near initialization for `test_params_buffer1.<anonymous>.<anonymous>.used') test-smtp-params.c:30: error: unknown field `used' specified in initializer test-smtp-params.c:31: warning: excess elements in struct initializer test-smtp-params.c:31: warning: (near initialization for `test_params_buffer1') test-smtp-params.c:33: error: unknown field `data' specified in initializer test-smtp-params.c:33: warning: missing braces around initializer test-smtp-params.c:33: warning: (near initialization for `test_params_buffer2.<anonymous>') test-smtp-params.c:34: warning: missing initializer test-smtp-params.c:34: warning: (near initialization for `test_params_buffer2.<anonymous>.<anonymous>.used') test-smtp-params.c:34: error: unknown field `used' specified in initializer test-smtp-params.c:35: warning: excess elements in struct initializer test-smtp-params.c:35: warning: (near initialization for `test_params_buffer2') make[3]: *** [test-smtp-params.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/dovecot-2.3.15/src/lib-smtp' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/dovecot-2.3.15/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/dovecot-2.3.15' make: *** [all] Error 2 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.7364 (%build) -- Mart

SQL Backend for IMAP METADATA Dictionary
by Joseph D Wagner 01 Aug '21

01 Aug '21

I've seen documentation on using a SQL backend for quota dictionary and passdb&userdb dictionary. However, I can't find any examples of a SQL backend for IMAP METADATA / mail_attributes_dict. Is this combination possible? If so, is there an example somewhere? I am unsure what data structures it's expected or how to create the map entries for it. Thanks in advance. Joseph D. Wagner
