Hmm.. shouldn't be any flags needed besides --with-mysql and --with-sql. I wonder if it has to do with the namespace. Try changing expire: Trash 2 to expire: INBOX.Trash 2 I'm not sure how (if) namespaces effect the expire plugin. Timo may be able to shed more light.

[Dovecot] Corrupted transaction logs
by Guy 05 Aug '08

05 Aug '08

Hi, I'm getting a lot of the following messages in my mail.err log. Jul 12 11:25:51 mink dovecot: IMAP(user1(a)domain1.net): Corrupted transaction log file /virtual/store1/mail/u/user1_domain1.net/Maildir/.Sent/dovecot.index.log: Append with UID 925, but next_uid = 926 Jul 12 12:44:56 mink dovecot: IMAP(user2(a)domain1.net): Corrupted transaction log file /virtual/store2/mail/u/user2_domain1.net/Maildir/.Trash/dovecot.index.log: Append with UID 4927, but next_uid = 4931 Jul 12 12:45:19 mink dovecot: IMAP(user2(a)domain1.net): Corrupted transaction log file /virtual/store2/mail/u/user2_domain1.net/Maildir/.Trash/dovecot.index.log: Append with UID 4930, but next_uid = 4931 The users get the wrong headers and bodies being displayed in Thunderbird and I'm unsure of the symptoms in other browsers. I'm running two mail servers with two NFS servers for the mail stores. Both mail servers have access to both mail stores and I'm assuming that that is what's causing the problem. I'm running dovecot 1.0.10 (Ubuntu - so I'm using only packages provides by aptitude at the moment). Should dovecot be able to handle access by multiple machines for the indexes? Thanks Guy -- Don't just do something...sit there!

Is this make sense ? > Yup this is as expected. From Timo when I asked him about it: "The expire data is "shared" so username=NULL. You could probably remove the whole username field. I did think about problems related to this yesterday though, so maybe this gets changed somehow some day." Figured since dovecot may use the username at one point, that we should just leave it in the table. > Here come the other questions.

Run it with a --test and it should tell you what it is doing. Did it remove the message from the Trash too as well as the db entry?

Oh. I guess that's why Mail.app showed some weird input in the mail. Anyway fixed now: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/d674c05d725d

[Dovecot] Expire plugin with Mysql
by Eric 05 Aug '08

05 Aug '08

Hey guys, got a question about the expire plugin. According to the wiki, the expire plugin "keeps an internal database (Berkeley DB or SQL)". I was wondering what fields in the mysql table are needed for expire to work. I assume it is setup is similar to the quota dict setup, so was just wondering what fields are required (i.e: select_field, where_field, username_field, for quota). Thanks

[Dovecot] dovecot-auth requires userdb, but already configured
by Carl Vondrick 05 Aug '08

05 Aug '08

Greetings! My ultimate goal is to have fetchmail/getmail poll from POP3/IMAP servers and deliver mail into Dovecot mailboxes. This does not work because the Dovecot LDA for some reason fails. I believe I have narrowed down the problem to dovecot-auth not finding my userdb. But, I am able to connect to dovecot via IMAP in my MUA and preform operations (read, delete mail, create folders). This leads me to believe my userdb is setup correctly. Does anyone have any idea as to why dovecot-auth would not find my userdb? (Configuration is below). carl@cvondrick:~$ dovecot --version 1.0.10 carl@cvondrick:~$ /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-auth dovecot-auth: Fatal: You'll need to add at least one userdb carl@cvondrick:~$ dovecot -n # 1.0.10: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log ssl_disable: yes disable_plaintext_auth: no verbose_ssl: yes login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_location: mbox:/home/carl/mail/%u mail_debug: yes dotlock_use_excl: yes auth default: verbose: yes debug: yes passdb: driver: passwd-file args: /etc/dovecot/passwd userdb: driver: passwd-file args: username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/passwd carl@cvondrick:~$ uname -a Linux cvondrick 2.6.24-20-generic #1 SMP Mon Jul 28 13:06:07 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux The package is from Ubuntu Hardy, but I can build from source if you think it'll fix this. Thanks for any responses, Carl

[Dovecot] FTS/squat search indexes built when?
by Jay Levitt 05 Aug '08

05 Aug '08

I know that a given search index doesn't get built the first time until you do an actual search on it from an IMAP client. I don't much care about that; I'm the only user, and I don't create new folders too often. At worst, I could create a script to go search every folder once. But what I'm not clear about: Does it then get updated on every delivery by LDA? Or does the index also need to get updated when I do a search, assuming there's been at least one message delivered since the last search? Jay Levitt

[Dovecot] doveot reporting "No space left on device" - yet df show plenty of space / inodes.
by Tom Brownlie 05 Aug '08

05 Aug '08

Hi, I am running dovecot 1.0.rc7 on a Suse Linux server. The server has approx 200+ mailboxes. Last week the filesystem (/dev/mapper/datavg/dat2lv) ran out of space - causing it to do into read-only mode. When I realised this I allocated some more space and re-booted the machine... Strangely it seems that dovecot is still having problems... It's like dovecot doesn't realise that there is enough space on the file system. Also - it only is happening to a few users at this stage - not all users are having problems sending/receiving emails... The dovecotstderr.log file contains: dovecot: Aug 05 09:47:38 Error: IMAP(rebecca): file_dotlock_open(/data/mail/rebecca/dovecot-uidlist) failed: No space left on device When I do a df -h mail:/var/log # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda4 9.0G 5.7G 3.3G 64% / tmpfs 491M 8.0K 491M 1% /dev/shm /dev/mapper/datavg-dat2lv 300G 130G 171G 44% /data When I do a df -i mail:/var/log # df -i Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/sda4 0 0 0 - / tmpfs 125505 5 125500 1% /dev/shm /dev/mapper/datavg-dat2lv 357753312 1030354 356722958 1% /data I manually created a file in /data/mail/rebecca - which worked fine, and didn't cause any problems. HELP!!! I am stumped.... I can't understand why Dovecot is complaining.. I have manually stopped postfix and dovecot, and then re-started them.. But to no avail. HELP - I am desperate.... My previously very reliable email server seems to be sick.. _________________________________________________________________ Meet singles near you.

[Dovecot] sieve multiple redirects
by Anil 05 Aug '08

05 Aug '08

I got a sieve script like this: redirect "user(a)gmail.com"; redirect "someuser(a)hotmail.com"; keep; It seems to redirect the mail to the 1st user but not the 2nd. Any idea? From what I can tell, that is a valid sieve script. I am using an earlier RC version of dovecot - 1.1.rc4, going to be upgrading soon. There are also a few errors. I assume /home/orders is not needed? Also, does Dovecot go through Global Sieve script and then per-user script? It appears that the global script is not even used if the per-user script exists - anyway to change that so both are parsed in order?
