Imaptest stalls when removing msgs argument
by Marc Roos 30 Aug '20

30 Aug '20

I have had this imaptest[1] stall. I compared this command with what you have on the website and I was a bit surprised that what is on the website is working. What I have noticed is that if you remove this msgs argument, the imaptest stalls. I am not sure if this is according to design, but one might expect that specifying a secs, makes specifying msgs redundant? [1] imaptest - append=100,0 logout=0 host=xx.local port=143 user=xxx pass=xxx seed=100 secs=240 clients=1 mbox=64kb.mbox box=inbox/test.

lazy_expunge and fts_autoindex
by Gregory Heytings 29 Aug '20

29 Aug '20

Hi list, I have both lazy_expunge and fts_autoindex activated (with fts-xapian), as follows: plugin { lazy_expunge = EXPUNGED/ } plugin { fts = xapian fts_xapian = partial=2 full=20 attachments=1 verbose=0 fts_autoindex = yes fts_enforced = yes fts_autoindex_exclude = EXPUNGED fts_autoindex_exclude2 = EXPUNGED/* } However, I still see "indexer-worker...: Info: Indexed 1 messages in EXPUNGED/..." in the dovecot log each time I expunge an email. I tried various other settings for "fts_autoindex_exclude" (EXPUNGED alone, EXPUNGED + EXPUNGED/ + EXPUNGED/*, ...), but none of them seem to work. Thanks for your help, Gregory

Expuning & Purging doesn't fully remove emails?
by Zelic Bojan 27 Aug '20

27 Aug '20

Hello, I'm facing an issue where deleted emails keep re-appearing after my mailbox index gets recreated. I'm running version 2.2.36 of dovecot, but I tested the same scenario under 2.3.10. I'm also using mdbox, autoexpunge, and using dovecot replication. I've had several instances now where some expunged emails show up again in a mailbox. I noticed this error: doveadm: Error: Corrupted dbox file /var/mail/virtual/mailbox(a)domain.com/mdbox/storage/m.3228 (around offset=1988744): msg header has bad magic value which caused the index to get rebuilt... however several times now, the indexes got rebuilt even though there doesnt seem like there was any error... so im not sure why that is. lmtp(13910): Warning: fscking index file /var/mail/virtual/mailbox(a)domain/mdbox/storage/dovecot.map.index lmtp(13910): Warning: fscking index file /var/mail/virtual/mailbox(a)domain/mdbox/storage/dovecot.map.index lmtp(13910): Warning: mdbox /var/mail/virtual/mailbox@domain/mdbox/storage: rebuilding indexes I'm not sure why these mails keep coming back though... or if there's anything that I can do to limit the number of emails that get restored. I want to make sure expunged & purged emails stay expunged & purged. If I run a purge and then force index recreation... why would expunged emails come back? Shouldn't I expect them all to be deleted & purged? Does expunge not expunge all emails? (In production, I'm running autoexpunge but this test below shows what happens when I attempt to expunge everything) doveadm search -u email@domain all | wc -l # output 22096 doveadm expunge -u email@domain mailbox '*' all doveadm search -u email@domain all | wc -l # output: 0 doveadm purge -u email@domain doveadm dump /var/mail/virtual/email@domain/mdbox/storage/ | grep -c 'ref.*\b0\b' # output: 0 doveadm force-resync -u email@domain Inbox # output: # doveadm(email@domain): Warning: fscking index file /var/mail/virtual/email(a)domain/mdbox/storage/dovecot.map.index # doveadm(email@domain): Warning: mdbox /var/mail/virtual/email@domain/mdbox/storage: rebuilding indexes # doveadm(email@domain): Warning: fscking index file /var/mail/virtual/email(a)domain/mdbox/storage/dovecot.map.index doveadm search -u email@domain all | wc -l # output: 843 I would expect the output to be 0. Theoretically I deleted all emails and purged all emails. Nothing should be left on the disk? However... I can see there are still m.* files in mdbox/storage for the mailbox. Overall, I'm not sure why the index got recreated... but I'm trying to limit the impact of mailbox corruption so that deleted emails do not come back if the index is somehow recreated again. If I were to re-run expunge, purge, and force-resync a 2nd time... it does get emptied out, but I'm not looking to run force-resync intentially since it causes dataloss with mdbox, and re-running only expunge & purge doesn't seem to do anything.

when are these conf.ext files loaded

Are these .conf.ext always loaded? Or only when they are configured somewhere else?

I am getting errors addressing environment variables. Are they supposed to work in such sections.

Strange index error on NFS after upgrade to CentOS 7 from 6
by Alessio Cecchi 25 Aug '20

25 Aug '20

Hi, I'm running 3 Dovecot director and 6 Dovecot backend on CentOS 6 and Dovecot 2.3.10, with Maildir shared on NFSv3 (on NetApp). Since CentOS 6 will be EOL on November I started to upgrade to CentOS 7 the first Dovecot backend. But after Director start to direct users on new CentOS 7 server some errors, for any users, come up, an example: Aug 21 14:56:41 Error: imap(alessio(a)cecchi.it) session=<11sBlmKtj1qelGW/>: Mailbox INBOX: Broken or unexpectedly changed file /home/vmail/domains/cecchi.it/alessio/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist line 18664: Invalid data: - re-reading from beginning Aug 21 14:56:41 Error: imap(alessio(a)cecchi.it) session=<11sBlmKtj1qelGW/>: Mailbox INBOX: Broken file /home/vmail/domains/cecchi.it/alessio/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist line 18664: Invalid data: Consequently to the error the user see the synchronization of his mailbox again. The Dovecot version and configuration is the same that in CentOS 6, also the mount parameters are the same, so I suspect that could be some difference in the NFS client implementation on CentOS 7. This the entry on fstab: 192.168.1.2:/vmail0 /mnt/vmail0 nfs rw,nfsvers=3,noatime,nodiratime,_netdev,nordirplus 0 0 # Bind for vmail0 /mnt/vmail0/domains /home/vmail/domains none x-systemd.requires=/mnt/vmail0,x-systemd.automount,bind 0 0 In the archive of this list I found a similar issue but without a solutions: https://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2018-October/113207.html Do you have any suggestions?
