[Dovecot] Moving from pysieved to native ManageSieve?
by Bjørn T Johansen 20 Jul '08

If moving from pysieved to Dovecot native ManageSieve implementation, should this just work or do I need to do anything with existing sieve filter rule files, etc? Any reasons not to do the switch?

[Dovecot] v1.1.rc13 released

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc13.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.1/rc/dovecot-1.1.rc13.tar.gz.sig There's always time for one more release candidate. :) I was planning on releasing v1.1.0 a couple of minutes before summer solstice (23:59 UTC according to Wikipedia). Maybe it'll bring luck to the release. :) - mbox: Fixed a crash when adding a new X-IMAPbase: header with keywords. - Message parser: Fixed assert-crash if cached MIME structure was broken. - Squat: Potential crashfix with mmap_disable=yes.

OK I've been struggling to get dumps from the live environment most of the day, but have given up.

A word about our setup; we have the maildirs stored on an nfs mount and deliver could be called on multiple heads at the same time for deliveries - I suspect this is what was causing the problem. Our nfs mount options are rw,noatime,nodiratime,hard,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp,nocto. Running centos 5.1 on the boxes with exim. Thanks, Mark

[Dovecot] exim, LDA, quota
by Marcin Gryszkalis 20 Jul '08

20 Jul '08

Hi I configured Exim with dovecot LDA and added quota (dict/mysql). It works but it seems that dovecot is not reporting situation back to exim process - it looks like Exim returns OK(accepted) to smtp sender before the message is actually delivered - if the quota is exceeded then LDA drops the mail and sends DSN. Is it possible to change that behavior to report problem immediately (within SMTP session)? regards -- Marcin Gryszkalis, PGP 0x9F183FA3 jabber jid:mg@fork.pl, gg:2532994 http://the.fork.pl

[Dovecot] group ownership of new shared folders
by Simon Michelson 20 Jul '08

20 Jul '08

Between versions 1.0.4 and 1.0.5 there were some changes to the way dovecot-shared group ownership is propogated into new maildirs. Changing the group of new_dir/{tmp,new,cur} was added, but changing the group of new_dir itself was removed. As far as I can tell, this latter change may have been accidental. This patch puts the functionality back, in the 1.1 tree. ---------------------------------- # HG changeset patch # User Simon Michelson <simon(a)inpher.com> # Date 1214444574 -3600 # Branch HEAD # Node ID 1dae5712e81daacb6923f500c0997aca6853ec3a # Parent 3c06e14c4731ee1ffe6d8c36bbdc711e3190cb2c reinstate code to apply gid of dovecot-shared to new maildir directory diff -r 3c06e14c4731 -r 1dae5712e81d src/lib-storage/index/maildir/maildir-storage.c --- a/src/lib-storage/index/maildir/maildir-storage.c Tue Jun 24 13:37:55 2008 +0300 +++ b/src/lib-storage/index/maildir/maildir-storage.c Thu Jun 26 02:42:54 2008 +0100 @@ -539,6 +539,10 @@ static int maildir_create_shared(struct umask(old_mask); return -1; } + if (chown(dir, (uid_t)-1, gid) < 0) { + mail_storage_set_critical(storage, + "chown(%s) failed: %m", dir); + } for (i = 0; i < N_ELEMENTS(maildir_subdirs); i++) { path = t_strconcat(dir, "/", maildir_subdirs[i], NULL); if (chown(path, (uid_t)-1, gid) < 0) {

[Dovecot] No log for hitting login_max_processes_count?
by Adam McDougall 20 Jul '08

20 Jul '08

I think today just due to increased use, my mail servers hit login_max_processes_count. It wasn't obvious what was happening, logins just weren't acting like they should and sometimes would get disconnected before given a prompt from the server. Something made me think to check if I had too many of certain dovecot processes and I found I had 128 imap-login processes on both servers, but nothing in the logs seemed to point that out for me. Should there be? It would have been alot easier to debug. Also, this seems to be from general use, doesn't seem like a DoS, so is this just a setting I should keep an eye on and increase it by reasonable amounts as needed? Thanks.

[Dovecot] 1.1.1, mbox_snarf and duplicate messages
by Laurent.Moineau＠math-info.univ-paris5.fr 20 Jul '08

20 Jul '08

Hello, I recently switched to dovecot 1.1.1 with mbox_snarf from uw-imap with mbox driver enabled. The mail is delivered by procmail in /var/spool/mail/user Most of my users have a file INBOX located in $HOME/mail The mail is transfered from /var/spool/mail/user to $HOME/mail/INBOX every time an imap connection is done. Things are OK with clients like thunderbird or evolution, but with imp or mostly squirrelmail messages are duplicated (some user reported that a single message duplicated 50 times !). Every imap connection (thunderbird or webmail) terminates with a warning : Timeout leak: 0x4534e0 I 've tried to use fcntl in : lock_method, mbox_read_locks and mbox_write_locks but things are worse than traditional dotlocks. My config on my first server : sendmail-8.14.1 procmail dovecot 1.1.1 On the second server : The webmail (imp and squirrelmail, latest versions) is installed on another server but uses server 1 as imap server. I 've tried to use an imap proxy (perdition) but without any improvement as far as this problem is concerned. I previously used another dovecot server on that machine with an NFS mount to get /var/spool/mail from the first server with the duplicate problem too. I enabled mail_log and there where a bunch of Info messages like this : dovecot: Jul 11 18:20:11 Info: IMAP(foo): copy: uid=22, dest=/users/foo/mail/INBOX, msgid=<4877879C.40104(a)math-info.univ-paris5.fr>, size=2223 Any hint ?
