Preparing for replication: dsync-local(testaccount): Panic: file mbox-lock.c
by Marc Roos 12 Oct '20

12 Oct '20

I am preparing a bit for setting up replication. However when I manually try to dsync an account, the first time I execute this[1] command it seems to be ok. The 2nd time I am getting this error[2]. If I add -1 (one way syncing) the error disappears. Does this mean I will have problems with setting up replication between these two servers? [1] [@ ~]# doveadm sync -n inbox -u testaccount tcp:mail.local:542 [2] [@ ~]# doveadm sync -n inbox -u testaccount tcp:mail.local:542 dsync-local(testaccount): Panic: file mbox-lock.c: line 799 (mbox_lock): assertion failed: (lock_type == F_RDLCK || mbox->mbox_lock_type != F_RDLCK) dsync-local(testaccount): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xa192e) [0x7fd4f827992e] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(default_fatal_handler+0x2a) [0x7fd4f827999a] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7fd4f8209257] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mbox_lock+0xef) [0x7fd4f858feef] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mbox_save_begin+0x658) [0x7fd4f8591958] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_save_begin+0x83) [0x7fd4f855a573] -> doveadm(+0x4a6a3) [0x55e5ae8276a3] -> doveadm(dsync_mailbox_import_mail+0xca) [0x55e5ae82a9fa] -> doveadm(dsync_brain_sync_mails+0xb3) [0x55e5ae824963] -> doveadm(dsync_brain_run+0x551) [0x55e5ae820551] -> doveadm(+0x438e0) [0x55e5ae8208e0] -> doveadm(+0x5899f) [0x55e5ae83599f] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x52) [0x7fd4f828f672] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run_internal+0x10f) [0x7fd4f8290d5f] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0x3c) [0x7fd4f828f70c] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x38) [0x7fd4f828f8c8] -> doveadm(+0x297c9) [0x55e5ae8067c9] -> doveadm(+0x2bdcc) [0x55e5ae808dcc] -> doveadm(+0x2c9ca) [0x55e5ae8099ca] -> doveadm(doveadm_mail_try_run+0x215) [0x55e5ae80a325] -> doveadm(main+0x46a) [0x55e5ae7f949a] -> /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf5) [0x7fd4f7e2c555] -> doveadm(+0x1c605) [0x55e5ae7f9605] Aborted CentOS Linux release 7.8.2003 (Core) dovecot-pigeonhole-2.2.36-6.el7_8.1.x86_64 dovecot-2.2.36-6.el7_8.1.x86_64

DKIM fail if WHM adds Message-ID, should be Message-Id
by webadmin＠exalt.com.au 12 Oct '20

12 Oct '20

I created a client library to send emails for a webapp. When the client library makes a connection to the SMTP server, and then do NOT add Message-Id header, Message-ID (with a capital D) header is added, and the SMTP server adds a incorrect DKIM-Signature record 'h' part, invalidating the generated DKIM signature value. This causes outlook, yahoo, gmail and other email recipients to add 'dkim:fail' to the message which pushes it into junk/spam folder. The work around is to add to the message a Message-Id with a little ‘d’ header. Then the SMTP server processes the email with the correct DKIM-Signature, correct DKIM ‘h’ part and does not add a Message-ID header. Message-ID fails DKIM, Message-Id is better by OzBob · Pull Request #142 · dovecot/core (github.com) https://github.com/dovecot/core/pull/142 Regards Robert

where to specify dovecot v2.3.11.3 SSL configs for fts solr indexer/backend connection?
by PGNet Dev 12 Oct '20

12 Oct '20

I'm running. dovecot --version 2.3.11.3 (502c39af9) solr -version 8.6.3 solr's configured to use SSL. dovecot correctly uses SSL for transport fts_solr = url=https://solr.example.com:8984/solr/dovecot/ adding solr-side SSL client auth, - SOLR_SSL_NEED_CLIENT_AUTH=false + SOLR_SSL_NEED_CLIENT_AUTH=need I need to specify client cert for dovecot to present -- specific to the fts indexer connection. It apparently does not use dovecot's general/global SSL configs; that^ toggle immediately breaks MUA-originated search, reporting only 2020-10-11 18:23:30 imap(myuser@example)<oKpmJW+xQKCsHgsH>: Error: fts_solr: Lookup failed: 401 Unauthorized All other protocols SSL configs certainly work, and can be individually configured with specific key/crt pairs. Where do I config dovecot specifically for the search backend? I.e., where do I assign the ssl key/cert for dovecot to present as client to the solr server ?

Providers running dovecot?
by Olivier Cailloux 11 Oct '20

11 Oct '20

Dear list, I am looking for providers of free e-mail addresses known to run Dovecot (or a variant thereof) for IMAP access. I need only a few MB storage space and no particular features beyond SMTP and IMAP. The reason I ask is that Dovecot is known to implement the IMAP spec quite respectfully, and I am writing a software which uses IMAP search (so I would suggest my users to register an e-mail to a provider implementing correctly the IMAP Search specifications, to reduce the probability of bugs). (More details here: https://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1821627.) Do you know of any such provider? -- Olivier

Expiry in kmail
by mh＠mike.franken.de 11 Oct '20

11 Oct '20

Hi *, is there any setting/plugin/... for dovecot, that would enable the "expiry" feature in kmail, i.e. let the client decide, what mails in what folder will expire and should be deleted by the server? TIA. Bye. Michael.

Feature request.
by Rogier Wolff 10 Oct '20

10 Oct '20

Hi, I get my Email from my own SMTP server on the internet using "fetchmail". Some time ago I did the smart thing and configured dovecot to use SSL and the letsencrypt certificate that automatically renews. Welllll..... a few days ago my certificate expired and the fetchmail deamon running in the background had nowhere to complain. So I didn't notice. It turns out that dovecot had been running uninterrupted since august 13th, the certificate was renewed on september 7th and I suspect it expired on october 7th. So.... Feature request: check the expiry date on the SSL certificate as it is being loaded and check for a new certificate if it HAS expired. If you worry about performance, this could be done where: TLS handshaking: SSL_accept() failed: error:14094415:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert certificate expired: SSL alert number 45 is reported. That would mean that ONE client will once get the error before dovecot fixes it. My personal fix is to restart dovecot once a week from now on. I might be running an older version: # 2.2.33.2 (d6601f4ec): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.21 (92477967) # OS: Linux 4.15.0-34-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS if it has already been fixed, please accept my apologies.

Packages installed: - dovecot-2.3.11.3-4.x86_64 - dovecot-debuginfo-2.3.11.3-4.x86_64 Maybe I missed a configuration parameter? Thank you.

Dovecot 2.3.10-2.3.11.3 pop3/imap login problem after upgrade
by Michał Smyczyński 09 Oct '20

09 Oct '20

Hi, I came across a following issue. After upgrading dovecot from 2.3.10 to 2.3.11.3 pop/imap logins fail. Auth method is plain/login ,with ssl required and shadow passdb driver, runnning on Slackware Linux 14.1. The configuration in both cases is the same, and in the past, after each uprgade i had no problems. I did not come across also of any information if upgrading from 2.3.10 to 2.3.11.3 require any significant change to auth configuration. Dovecot v2.3.10 (0da0eff44) starting up for pop3, imap (core dumps disabled) pop3-login: Login: user=<test>, method=PLAIN, rip=89.78.12.2, lip=192.168.100.30, mpid=8109, TLS, session=<7aCIhC6xzehZTgwC> Dovecot v2.3.11.3 (502c39af9) starting up for pop3, imap (core dumps disabled) pop3-login: Disconnected (tried to use unsupported auth mechanism): user=<test>, method=USER, rip=89.78.12.2, lip=192.168.100.30, TLS, session=<CYwFfS6xouhZTgwC> I appreciate help if someone knows the cause and solution.
