[Dovecot] Sieve not recognizing keywords
by Alexander Hoogerhuis 04 May '07

04 May '07

First, I've been lurking and using dovecot for a few years now and I've always liked it, great piece of software! :) I've finally decided to clean up my act here and get virutal users and get postfix (2.3), dovecot (1.0.0) and deliver to play nice, using postfixadmin. I have it 99% there, but one thing is left: When I receive mails, deliver finds my virtual home dir and then tries to compile the sieve script (converted from procmail with the script mentioned in the wiki), and then always bums out on this: sieve parse error: line 3: Unsupported features in require line and line 3 looks like this: require ["fileinto","regex","envelope","vacation"]; which should be fine? Then I googled around and found this thread from january: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-January/018376.html Which made it sound like the sieve plugin 1.0.0 had a bug that got fixed in 1.0.1. I am doing all of this on Gentoo, so I decided to just redo the ebuild so that I got the dovecot 1.0.0 ebuild, but with the sieve plugin 1.0.1. Aparently I get the same error and now am at a loss here. Any pointers? -A

[Dovecot] Testing IMAP clients with Dovecot, problems with MacMail
by Stewart Dean 04 May '07

04 May '07

I've been testing my user community's IMAP clients when I try to login and then transfer a big message from the inbox into a folder in an overquota folder directory. I am using native filesystem quotaing in AIXV5.3 with UWIMAP and comparing my results with what I see with Dovecot 1.0.0. (My Dovecot built without any plugins or quota extensions) Everything matches/works except for Mac Mail under SSL with Dovecot.. Mac Mail: 1) with UWIMAP, login and mailbox load goes OK, then the illegal overquota xfer fails (as it should) with a popup reading 'Message could not be moved', with (port 993) and without (port 143) SSL 2) with Dovecot, 1) login and mailbox load goes OK to port 10143, plain listen, and the illegal xfer correctly fails as it should with a popup messge under a plain connection, but 2) When the port number is set to the Dovecot ssl_listen port and the SSL box is checked, Mac Mail doesn't bring up the inbox and folders...it acts like it can't connect. Has anyone else seen this behavior, and is there a fix? Mac Mail is also known as Mail.app. I am testing it at 1.3.11 and 2.1.1. In the July '05 archive, I found this: > It looks like Mail.app treats "non-standard" ports differently. On the > standard port (993), the "SSL" option seems to do pure SSL; but with > another > port specified, it does clean-plus-starttls (and hence fails horribly, > because > it's talking to a pure SSl service) Is there anything I can do to get MacMail to behave correctly? Or will it clear up when I shut down UWIMAP and give Dovecot the default ports. A Bronx cheer for Mac Mail........ My thanks in advance, S. Everything else I tested behaves...for anyone that's interested....... ================ Over Quota Xfer results ==================== Insecure Pine from Unix login shell: refused by both UWIMAP (cannot exceed user or group quota) and Dovecot (there's not enough disk space.) server apps. It is presumed that this will be used from within an SSH session to secure the transmission. Webmail (horde, insecure and secure) : refused by both UWIMAP (cannot exceed user or group quota) and Dovecot (there's not enough disk space.) server apps. PC: TBird 1.5, 2.0, Sea Monkey and Netscape 7.2: get a popup with both UWIMAP (cannot exceed user or group quota) and Dovecot (there's not enough disk space.) server apps, both secure and insecure Mac: Seamonkey: ditto, same as PC Sea Monkey Mac Mail or Mail.app only works insecure, as per above

[Dovecot] Does dovecot do any address checking or referring back to a server?
by Wade Smart 04 May '07

04 May '07

This is a dovecot question so bear with me. I just upgraded to Ubuntu 7.04 from 6.06. I used fetchmail and postfix but not dovecot on 6.06. Fetchmail retrieved my mail and postfix put it in my maildir. I used Evolution to access the maildir directly. I setup Evolution to send mail directly as well. With this move I decided to go the extra step and get dovecot working. With some help on this form, I did that. But, I immediately started having trouble with getting my mail. Fetchmail is retrieving it but postfix keeps not processing for some reason. Im geting these error message: May 2 17:14:11 wadesmart postfix/qmgr[14778]: 6D4AD14286F3: to=<wadesmart(a)mail.wadesmart.com>, orig_to=<wade@localhost>, relay=none, delay=9331, delays=9307/25/0/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: connect to smtpout.secureserver.net[64.202.165.58]: Connection timed out) The thing is - Im not sending mail at all through postfix. So my question is, I know that dovecot only serves up email to a mail client but, does it do something that I have totally missed that would some how or some way refer mail back to a server? Is there some type of address check or something going on? I know Im grasping at straws here but, I have been unable to get help from the postfix list or any list for that matter so if I can eliminate one more piece of the puzzle, all the better. Thanks.

[Dovecot] Dovecot SASL for postfix: Client host rejected: when relaying using POP mail client
by Nad 03 May '07

03 May '07

Hi everyone I have setup an ISP style mail system using postfix, dovecot, squirrelmail and mysql on ubuntu server 7.04. Everything seems to be working fine with sending recieving emails but relaying on submission service (port 587). I want to allow any client to be able to relay as long as they AUTH using dovecot SASL and are valid users regardless of what IP/host they come in from. I have a feeling that the submission service is not able to make use of dovecot sasl-auth. Here is what I have in my master.cf to enable submission service: submission inet n - - - - smtpd -o smtpd_enforce_tls=no -o smtpd_sasl_auth_enable=yes -o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_sasl_authenticated,reject My main.cf file looks like this: queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix command_directory = /usr/sbin daemon_directory = /usr/lib/postfix mail_owner = postfix myhostname = mail.domainname.tld mydomain = domainname.tld myorigin = $myhostname inet_interfaces = $myhostname inet_protocols = ipv4 mydestination = $myhostname unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 mynetworks_style = host mynetworks = aa.bb.cc.dd relay_domains = $mydestination alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq setgid_group = postdrop transport_maps = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql/transports.cf virtual_mailbox_domains = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql/domains.cf virtual_mailbox_base = /srv/mail virtual_mailbox_maps = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql/accounts.cf virtual_alias_maps = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql/forwardings.cf, proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql/emails.cf virtual_minimum_uid = 8 virtual_uid_maps = static:8 virtual_gid_maps = static:8 dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1 smtpd_use_tls = no smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth strict_rfc821_envelopes = yes smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination, reject_non_fqdn_recipient, reject_unknown_recipient_domain When I try to relay using Outlook, I see the following message in the mail.log: May 3 00:36:33 mail postfix/smtpd[10004]: connect from cable.company.client.hostname.com[12.34.56.78] May 3 00:36:33 mail postfix/smtpd[10004]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from cable.company.client.hostname.com[12.34.56.78]: 554 5.7.1 <cable.company.client.hostname.com[12.34.56.78]>: Client host rejected: Access denied; from=<postfixuser(a)domainname.tld> to=<someone(a)anotherdomainname.tld> proto=ESMTP helo=<mycomputer> May 3 00:36:33 mail postfix/smtpd[10004]: disconnect from cable.company.client.hostname.com[12.34.56.78] May 3 00:36:33 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<postfixuser(a)domainname.tld>, method=PLAIN, rip=12.34.56.78, lip=aa.bb.cc.dd May 3 00:36:33 mail dovecot: POP3(postfixuser(a)domainname.tld): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/626, size=27305010 I have tried several options for the last 2 days but have not been able to get past in relaying email for valid-users from any/all client hosts. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance. N

[Dovecot] connecting postfix with dovecot trouble
by André Höpner 03 May '07

03 May '07

Hello listmembers, we have some trouble connecting postfix to dovecot. after a lot of hours the transport and delivery is working but dovecot can't get the correct user. postmap -q some.user(a)domain.com ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap-aliases.cf first returns: someuser The mailbox someuser exists and i can login with this user on imap and i can deliver directly using deliver -d but on mail delivery thrue postfix dovecot is not looking for someuser. It looks for someuser(a)host.domain.com. ---8<------ May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/pickup[24686]: C94251DB23E: uid=0 from=<root> May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/cleanup[24769]: C94251DB23E: message-id=<20070503161842.C94251DB23E(a)host.domain.com> May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/qmgr[24544]: C94251DB23E: from=<root(a)host.domain.com>, size=322, nrcpt=1 (queue active) May 3 16:18:42 mail dovecot: auth(default): master in: USER 1 someuser(a)host.domain.com service=deliver May 3 16:18:42 mail dovecot: auth(default): ldap(someuser(a)host.domain.com): user search: base=dc=domain,dc=com scope=subtree filter=(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=someuser(a)host.domain.com)) fields=mail,homeDirectory May 3 16:18:42 mail dovecot: auth(default): master out: USER 1 someuser(a)host.domain.com home=/var/mail/dovecot/someuser uid=100 gid=12 May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/pipe[24772]: C94251DB23E: to=<someuser(a)host.domain.com>, orig_to=<some.user(a)domain.com>, relay=dovecot, delay=0.04, delays=0.02/0.01/0/0.02, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered via dovecot service) May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/qmgr[24544]: C94251DB23E: removed ---8<------ It seems that postfix or dovecot appends the hostname to the mailboxname. But i cant figure out which of both. If i change the uid to someuser(a)hostname.domain.com on ldap-server anything works fine. how can i fix this? i dont know if anyone needs config files for diagnostic. if so - please tell me and i post the needed informations. best regards Andre Hoepner

[Dovecot] Any plans for storing messages on a database?
by Francisco Reyes 03 May '07

03 May '07

Redudancy and recovering from a mailstore failure is one of the concerns I am trying to address where I work. Any plans to have Dovecot store emails in a database? NAS/SAN devices which do automatic replication to a second device are extremely expensive. I also don't see any distributed filesystem which is mature and available for the OS we use (FreeBSD). I recall at one point, many months back, Timo mentioned that perhaps storing the messages in the database was a possibility for the future. Any additional thoughts on this?
