[Dovecot] [PATCH] support OEM encoding in NTLM messages
by Andrey Panin 22 Oct '04

22 Oct '04

Hello, after I started to use dovecot as a backend for exim4 SMTP authentication on my main mailserver, I noticed that some clients don't advertise unicode support and so they can't log in. To fix the problem the attached patch allows use of OEM encoding in NTLM messages. Please consider applying. Best regards. P.S. I want to release exim4 patch in the near future, probably when Timo will stop making incompatible protocol changes ;) -- Andrey Panin | Linux and UNIX system administrator pazke(a)donpac.ru | PGP key: wwwkeys.pgp.net

[Dovecot] File isn't in mbox format - error
by Götz Reinicke 22 Oct '04

22 Oct '04

HI, I recently upgraded an wu-imap server to dovecot dovecot-0.99.11-1.FC3.3 without big trouble (the subscribed mailboxes had to be added by hand...) But today users told me that there where some problems; e.g. a user tried to delete a message and got this error: Oct 19 09:43:13 mail imap(jmeinken): File isn't in mbox format: /home/mitarbeiter/jmeinken//Trash This didn't happen before; also after the migration. My questions: - Whats wrong? - Why is there the "//" a "more Trash" failed. After deleting this file and "touching" a new one, the user can delete files. The quota is 150 MB, the usere uses 100 MB at the moment. Any ideas?

[Dovecot] default_mail_env %d var problem
by pythonic 22 Oct '04

22 Oct '04

Hello, I am new to Dovecot and trying to setup on my Fedora Core 1 mail servers (actually migrating from uw to dovecot ;-) ). In my setup I use pam to authenticate virtual users. All the usernames include @domainname in their usernames like 'jane(a)somevhost.com'. Now path to user's home and INBOX includes /home/vhosts/<domainname>/home/<username>. I have added following to dovecot.conf. ------------------------ auth_passdb = pam auth_verbose = yes auth_username_chars = default_mail_env = mbox:/home/vhosts/%d/%h/:INBOX=/home/vhosts/%d/var/spool/mail/%n -------------------------- Now if I try to connect imap I get foll. error. -- imap(jane): May 19 01:58:08 Error: mkdir_parents(/home/vhosts///home/jane//.imap/INBOX) failed: Permission denied -- So %h and %u looks working but not %d :(. My pam module works right as if I use actual domain path in dovecot.conf everything works fine. Auth works correctly with uw. Any pointers ? TIA, Pythonic

[Dovecot] [PATCH] Fix on Cyrus SASL support for Rel 0.99.11
by ITO Nobuaki 22 Oct '04

22 Oct '04

Code which supports cyrus SASL library (src/auth/mech-cyrus-sasl2.c) is broken. Following is the workaround patch for Dovecot Rel 0.99.11, and it worked fine on FreeBSD 4.10 BOX. It will not work with current development version. Application for that version might not be so difficult. Recently I found the CVS log which appeals that cyrus SASL support is discontinued. It's very sad.

[Dovecot] ./configure --with-mysql --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --with-ssldir=/etc/ssl --with-ssl=openssl
by Tom Sommer 21 Oct '04

Hi, I installed dovecot from dovecot-1.0-test51 with this configure line: ./configure --with-mysql --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --with-ssldir=/etc/ssl --with-ssl=openssl When I add this to my dovecot.conf: passdb = mysql /etc/dovecot-mysql.conf I get this in /var/log/maillog when I run "dovecot -c /etc/dovecot.conf": Oct 21 13:59:16 one dovecot: Dovecot v1.0-test51 starting up Oct 21 13:59:17 one dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting down Oct 21 13:59:17 one dovecot: auth(default): Unknown userdb type 'mysql' Oct 21 13:59:17 one dovecot: child 13203 (auth) returned error 89 After my ./configure was complete it was also noted that mysql would be built into dovecot as passwd and userdb, so MySQL should be in there. Any ideas? I use MySQL 4.0.17. Thanks -- Tom Sommer

[Dovecot] Problems with thunderbird
by Jonas Lundgren 21 Oct '04

21 Oct '04

I'm running dovecot-1.0-test50 on openbsd 3.4 and it's working great, exept with thunderbird. Everything works fine with squirrelmail. The instant i log in with thunderbird the imap process goes up to 100% cpu, and instantly goes back down to 0 when i log out. I configured dovecot with the following arguments: --with-vpopmail --with-storages=maildir --without-passwd --without-passwd-file --without-static --without-pop3d --with-mysql --disable-ipv6 --with-ssl=openssl --without-checkpassword --without-bsdauth --without-static-userdb I'm usig the sql as auth, with vpopmail. I've also tried 1.0-test19, test46, 47, 48 and 49. Going to try 0.9.11 now, but in the 0.9-series i've had huge problems with indexes becoming fucked up every couple of hours. (The last 0.9 I tried is 0.9.10.6) Am i doing something wrong or what? -- Best regards, Jonas Lundgren ICQ: #52064961 IRC: neonman @ EFnet, Undernet, Quakenet Mail: jonas.lundgren(a)local.se
