Mail replication does not work
by Pavel Just 02 Sep '20

02 Sep '20

Hi, I have installed two Debian 10.5 (SSH server) systems and I would like replicate mails between them. But the replication is very unstable. Before start of dovecot Source mailbox: 278 messages, Destination mailbox: 0 messages Another mailbox: 16887 messages, D.. 0 messages After start of dovecot Source mailbox: 278 messages, Destination mailbox: 303 messages Another mailbox: 16887 messages, Dest..: 31904 messages In many cases replication hangs. Error message is in the end of the message. If replication hangs, after restart a lot of mail are copied from destination back to source and mailbox grows without new messages. Postfix was stopped during replication. Please, what is wrong in my configuration (except security :-) ? -- Pavel # 2.3.11.3 (502c39af9): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.5.11 (6c69c917) # OS: Linux 4.19.0-10-amd64 x86_64 Debian 10.5 # Hostname: mail.simac.cz disable_plaintext_auth = no doveadm_password = # hidden, use -P to show it first_valid_uid = 1001 last_valid_uid = 32000 mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mail_plugins = " notify replication" mail_privileged_group = mail mail_temp_dir = /var/tmp managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate mime foreverypart extracttext namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { driver = pam } plugin { mail_replica = tcp:192.168.240.2:12345 sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve } protocols = " imap sieve pop3" service aggregator { fifo_listener replication-notify-fifo { mode = 0666 user = root } unix_listener replication-notify { mode = 0666 user = root } } service doveadm { inet_listener { port = 12345 ssl = no } } service replicator { process_min_avail = 1 unix_listener replicator-doveadm { mode = 0666 user = root } } service stats { unix_listener stats-reader { mode = 0666 user = root } unix_listener stats-writer { mode = 0666 user = root } } ssl = no userdb { driver = passwd } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " notify replication sieve" } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " notify replication sieve" } ____________________________________ Error message ________________ Sep 2 14:08:00 backup dovecot: doveadm: Panic: file mbox-lock.c: line 796 (mbox_lock): assertion failed: (lock_type == F_RDLCK || mbox->mbox_lock_type != F_RDLCK) Sep 2 14:08:00 backup dovecot: doveadm: Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(backtrace_append+0x3d) [0x7f300ef00eed] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(backtrace_get+0x1e) [0x7f300ef0100e] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xf465b) [0x7f300ef0a65b] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xf46f1) [0x7f300ef0a6f1] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x514a6) [0x7f300ee674a6] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0x438e5) [0x7f300f0108e5] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mbox_save_begin+0x6fd) [0x7f300f05fa7d] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_save_begin+0x92) [0x7f300f0299e2] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mail_storage_copy+0x89) [0x7f300f01c4e9] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib15_notify_plugin.so(+0x246f) [0x7f300e71846f] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0x5cb3c) [0x7f300f029b3c] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(+0x4f805) [0x556ee519a805] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(+0x501f7) [0x556ee519b1f7] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(dsync_mailbox_import_changes_finish+0x164) [0x556ee519dba4] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(dsync_brain_sync_mails+0x735) [0x556ee5198e85] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(dsync_brain_run+0x218) [0x556ee5194858] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(+0x49eae) [0x556ee5194eae] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(+0x5aa6f) [0x556ee51a5a6f] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x69) [0x7f300ef20989] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run_internal+0x131) [0x7f300ef21ed1] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0x4c) [0x7f300ef20a2c] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x40) [0x7f300ef20ba0] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(+0x2e20e) [0x556ee517920e] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(+0x2fa56) [0x556ee517aa56] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(+0x45cad) [0x556ee5190cad] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x69) [0x7f300ef20989] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run_internal+0x131) [0x7f300ef21ed1] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0x4c) [0x7f300ef20a2c] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x40) [0x7f300ef20ba0] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(master_service_run+0x13) [0x7f300ee9a9c3] Sep 2 14:08:00 backup dovecot: doveadm: Fatal: master: service(doveadm): child 1977 killed with signal 6 (core dumps disabled - https://dovecot.org/bugreport.html#coredumps)

Incremental purge?
by Jesus Cea 02 Sep '20

02 Sep '20

I am using mdbox storage format. As far as I know, “doveadm purge” does a complete purge. The time and disk activity would be proportional to the number mdbox files on the storage. The purge time could be huge. I wonder if there is some way of doing a kind of incremental purge, stopping/restarting purging, etc. Purging by file range would be nice too. Advice? Thanks Enviado desde mi iPhone

Dovecot Proxy
by Thoralf Rickert-Wendt 02 Sep '20

02 Sep '20

Hello everyone, it's my first post here on this mailing list and I hope, I make it right. I posted a question on https://serverfault.com/questions/1031441/dovecot-as-proxy-with-submission and nobody was able to answer it. So I decided to push that question here (I'm talking about any new dovecot version and I've tested it with 2.3.4.1 (f79e8e7e4)). I try to run a dovecot proxy in front of a big number of mail servers (serving SMTP-in, submission, IMAP, POP3, Sieve). I need that proxy, because I run out of IPv4 addresses. Of course I use IPv6 too, but many customers still have problems with there providers and they really don't want to share their mails on a "shared-mailserver". I planed to use Dovecot for IMAPS, POP3S, SMTP-submission(465) and postfix for the rest. If I find a solution for sieve, I would try that too, but that is very optional. With the documentation https://wiki1.dovecot.org/HowTo/ImapProxy (which is really old and should be updated) and some other ascii docs (from an Apple mirror somewhere deep in the web) I was able to build a IMAP/POP3 proxy that forwards requests from outside to a specific backend using SSL (993,995). That works - I think.You can find the config on the serverfault page. In general - all known domains in backend are using SSL and the passdb forwards all requests to the backend via SSL. So - I understand:|| |password_query = SELECT NULL AS password, NULL AS destuser, host, 'Y' AS nologin, 'Y' AS nodelay, 'Y' AS nopassword, 'Y' AS proxy, 'any-cert' AS `ssl` FROM proxy_domain WHERE domain = '%d' | But that is only 50% of the show. The rest ist submission (and maybe sieve). Practically the submission implementation in dovecot works too. But because dovecot by default only opens port 587 (starttls), my passdb setting has a problem. When I try to use that port Dovecot tries to use SSL on the backend/587 too - but that is wrong (it should either use 465 or should try to use starttls). So, I have the following options. - find a way to configure dovecot-proxy to listen on 465 with SSL for submission service and hope that it uses the same port - but I didn't find any documentation for that and need help - find a way to configure dovecot-proxy/passdb to return starttls=y when dovecot-submission is used (use a different passdb) - but I didn't find any documentation for that and I'm not sure, if this worls on service/protocol level - find a way to configure the passdb answer based on the used port/protocol. But I only know the parameter %u, %d and %p. - so it would be nice to find a way to also select the protocol (if already developed) - find a way to make a patch in dovecot (which isn't easy for me, because I don't really know the code) Has somebody an idea, how I can configure the dovecot-proxy in that way. bye Thoralf

Bug: Dovecot appending "MISSING_DOMAIN" to fetch envelope responses
by Michael Gratton 02 Sep '20

02 Sep '20

Hi all, I'm seeing Dovecot include the string "MISSING_DOMAIN" in fetch envelope requests when an mailbox's `addr-spec` part does not have a `domain` part. For example: > C: a022 uid fetch 40 (envelope rfc822.header) > S: * 5 FETCH (UID 40 ENVELOPE ("Sat, 15 Aug 2020 12:53:05 +1000" > "test {{name}}" (("Michael Gratton" NIL "mike" "vee.net")) (("Michael > Gratton" NIL "mike" "vee.net")) (("Michael Gratton" NIL "mike" > "vee.net")) (("postgres" NIL "postgres" "MISSING_DOMAIN")) NIL NIL > NIL NIL) RFC822.HEADER {literal/244b}) I understand that RFC 5322 require a mailbox to have a domain part, however it is still possible for mail to contain mailboxes that do not. In these cases, Dovecot returning random string such as the above is harmful, since it not possible for IMAP clients to determine whether host name string is actually present or something that the IMAP server has made up. As a result, an IMAP client has two options: Either display the string as-is, preventing it from providing an appropriately localised explanation or visual indication of the problem in the user interface, or simply avoid ever requesting IMAP envelopes from the server and always download and parse the complete RFC822 headers itself (as I believe Thunderbird does). The former is untenable since "MISSING_DOMAIN" does not mean anything to non-English speakers, the latter is untenable since it unnecessarily inflates the of volume of data that must be transmitted over the wire to work around a server bug. In these cases, or when any other part of a required IMAP address structure is missing, Dovecot should return the empty string, e.g. "".

using %d as a variable in the ldap search base
by Luke Schierer 01 Sep '20

01 Sep '20

Hi, I'm trying to configure dovecot to use LDAP authentication directly, and I'm having a bit of trouble. I have a somewhat unusual setup, in that I have an LDAP directory that has 3 OUs each of which have their own set of users, some of which overlap. As I was trying to figure things out, I was setting the search base in my /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext file which is referenced by /etc/dovecot/conf.d/auth-ldap.conf.ext file to base = ou=%d,dc=thecrazyguys,dc=net however, the resulting searches against the directory endup just dropping the %d, resulting in ou=,dc=thecrazyguys,dc=net which is invalid. On a whim, I tried a search base of base = dc=%d,dc=thecrazyguys,dc=net and found that it did correctly substitute in the variable, which would be correct, except that my ldap tree is set up with OUs and not an extra DC segment. for whatever reason, it will do variable substitution for dc=%d, but not for ou=%d. this is certainly not documented, and seems like wrong behavior, since having an ou in a search base is valid. I'm including configuration information below. Please let me know if I've missed including information that is required. Thanks!

I increased default_vsz_limit to 512M but the only thing that changed was that dovecot was trying to allocate 1073741864 bytes instead of 268435496 As I said, I’m running SLES 15 SP1 and Dovecot 2.3.10 (0da0eff44) (both Hosts have the same version) Each Host currently has 8GB of Memory. # free -h total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 7.8Gi 278Mi 7.3Gi 47Mi 183Mi 7.2Gi Swap: 4.0Gi 0B 4.0Gi # journalctl -f Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 postfix/pickup[3457]: 18533C009C8: uid=0 from=<root> Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 postfix/cleanup[3669]: 18533C009C8: message-id=<20200618135548.18533C009C8@mail1> Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 postfix/qmgr[3458]: 18533C009C8: from=<root@mail1>, size=431, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 dovecot[1833]: lmtp(3673): Connect from local Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 dovecot[1833]: replicator: Panic: data stack: Out of memory when allocating 268435496 bytes Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 dovecot[1833]: replicator: Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(backtrace_append+0x42) [0x7f8346d6d262] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(backtrace_get+0x1e) [0x7f8346d6d37e] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xebcee) [0x7f8346d77cee] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xebd91) [0x7f8346d77d91] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7f8346cd1f8b] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(t_pop_last_unsafe+0) [0x7f8346d73660] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xe7a50) [0x7f8346d73a50] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x10eb58) [0x7f8346d9ab58] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0xe3ac5) [0x7f8346d6fac5] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(buffer_write+0xf2) [0x7f8346d6fdb2] -> dovecot/replicator(replicator_queue_push+0xde) [0x5648989a5cde] -> dovecot/replicator(+0x5464) [0x5648989a5464] -> dovecot/replicator(+0x4a0b) [0x5648989a4a0b] -> dovecot/replicator(+0x4c02) [0x5648989a4c02] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x69) [0x7f8346d90c99] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run_internal+0x134) [0x7f8346d92574] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0x4c) [0x7f8346d90d9c] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x38) [0x7f8346d90fc8] -> /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(master_service_run+0x13) [0x7f8346d01873] -> dovecot/replicator(main+0x1a0) [0x5648989a3cb0] -> /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xea) [0x7f83468f534a] -> dovecot/replicator(_start+0x2a) [0x5648989a3d5a] Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 dovecot[1833]: lmtp(test(a)example.com)<3673><q5sLCGRy615ZDgAATn/NZw>: Warning: replication(test(a)example.com): Sync failure: Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 dovecot[1833]: lmtp(test(a)example.com)<3673><q5sLCGRy615ZDgAATn/NZw>: Warning: replication(test(a)example.com): Remote sent invalid input: - Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 dovecot[1833]: lmtp(test(a)example.com)<3673><q5sLCGRy615ZDgAATn/NZw>: msgid=<20200618135548.18533C009C8@mail1>: saved mail to INBOX Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 dovecot[1833]: lmtp(3673): Disconnect from local: Client has quit the connection (state=READY) Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 postfix/lmtp[3672]: 18533C009C8: to=<test(a)example.com>, orig_to=<test(a)domain.com>, relay=mail1[private/dovecot-lmtp], delay=0.17, delays=0.02/0.01/0.02/0.13, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 <test(a)example.com> q5sLCGRy615ZDgAATn/NZw Saved) Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 postfix/qmgr[3458]: 18533C009C8: removed Jun 18 15:55:48 mail1 dovecot[1833]: replicator: Fatal: master: service(replicator): child 2948 killed with signal 6 (core not dumped - https://dovecot.org/bugreport.html#coredumps - set /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable to 2)

shutdown_clients ignored on Director upgrade/restart
by Tom Sommer 01 Sep '20

01 Sep '20

When yum updates a Dovecot Director, it restarts all processes - however a few imap-login and pop3-login processes hang because they are still proxying connections. It's like the now orphaned processes are stalled, and needs a kill -9 to die. This is a problem because those stalled connections are still connected to backends, so when new connections are made from the same account, they do not end up on the same backend and thus index corruption happens (same account, two different backends). shutdown_clients is enabled but it appears Dovecot restarts regardless of verifying all processes/clients are shut down. Just had this happen upon yum update from dovecot-2.3.11.3-3 to dovecot-2.3.11.3-4 -- Tom

how fetch zlibed mails with doveadm
by rudolf＠padaru.de 31 Aug '20

31 Aug '20

Hey there, i need some help with an administrativ dovecot question. I run a dovecot 2.2.33 ubuntu server with mdbox and "zlib_save = gz zlib_save_level = 6". Now i want to fetch the mailheader from some mails via doveadm fetch -u <user> hdr uid <uid>. The only thing what i receive is some binary stuff. Is there a way, i can tell the dovemadm fetch command, that he should deflate the output for me? Yours sincerely Pascal Rudolf
