Crash when moving mail from Inbox to Trash
by marvin alcantara 14 Nov '19

Hi, I am developing a dovecot plugin, and inside my plugin I am implementing my own expunge function. Inside my function, I am calling the following lines of code: if (storage->v.mail_open(mail, &offset, &mail->open_file) < 0) return -1; The mail_open virtual function is an invalid address. The storage should be mdbox however, it seems that it didn't get the correct mdbox_mail_open of mdbox-storage. Do you have any suggestions as to why this is happening? dovecot version:2.3.7 (a3d493f) Sincerely,Marvin

RFC 5258 violation: incomplete response for "LIST ($OPT RECURSIVEMATCH) ..."
by Guilhem Moulin 12 Nov '19

12 Nov '19

Hi there, RFC 5258 (IMAP4 LIST command extensions) defines a ‘RECURSIVEMATCH’ selection option which “forces the server to return information about parent mailboxes that don't match other selection options, but have some submailboxes that do.” (Section 3.5 makes the requirement even clearer.) However that's not what Dovecot 2.3.7 does. AFAICT no LIST response is returned for mailboxes that don't meet the selection criteria, regardless of whether they have a child that does. The violation is visible when reproducing example #9 from Section 5 [0]: $ env -i USER=user HOME=/dev/shm/dovecot-test/user PATH=/usr/bin:/bin \ doveadm -c /tmp/dovecot.conf mailbox create foo2 baz2 $ env -i USER=user HOME=/dev/shm/dovecot-test/user PATH=/usr/bin:/bin \ doveadm -c /tmp/dovecot.conf mailbox create -s \ foo2/{bar1,bar2} baz2/{bar2,bar22,bar222} eps2 eps2/mamba qux2/bar2 $ env -i USER=user HOME=/dev/shm/dovecot-test/user PATH=/usr/bin:/bin \ doveadm -c /tmp/dovecot.conf exec imap S: * PREAUTH [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 … LIST-EXTENDED …] Logged in as user C: D01 LIST "" "*" S: * LIST (\Noselect \HasChildren) "/" qux2 S: * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" qux2/bar2 S: * LIST (\HasChildren) "/" eps2 S: * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" eps2/mamba S: * LIST (\HasChildren) "/" baz2 S: * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" baz2/bar222 S: * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" baz2/bar22 S: * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" baz2/bar2 S: * LIST (\HasChildren) "/" foo2 S: * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" foo2/bar2 S: * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" foo2/bar1 S: * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" INBOX S: D01 OK List completed (0.006 + 0.000 + 0.005 secs). C: D02 LIST (SUBSCRIBED) "" "*" S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" foo2/bar1 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" foo2/bar2 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" baz2/bar2 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" baz2/bar22 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" baz2/bar222 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" eps2 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" eps2/mamba S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" qux2/bar2 S: D02 OK List completed (0.001 + 0.000 secs). A LIST command with ‘RECURSIVEMATCH SUBSCRIBED’ selection options produces an incomplete response: C: D03 LIST (RECURSIVEMATCH SUBSCRIBED) "" "*" S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" foo2/bar1 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" foo2/bar2 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" baz2/bar2 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" baz2/bar22 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" baz2/bar222 S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" eps2 (CHILDINFO ("SUBSCRIBED")) S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" eps2/mamba S: * LIST (\Subscribed) "/" qux2/bar2 S: D03 OK List completed (0.001 + 0.000 secs). The following untagged LIST responses for ‘foo2’ and ‘baz2’ are missing. RFC 5258 mandates their inclusion because even though they're not subscribed to themselves, they each have (at least) a subscribed child. S: * LIST () "/" "foo2" ("CHILDINFO" ("SUBSCRIBED")) S: * LIST () "/" "baz2" ("CHILDINFO" ("SUBSCRIBED")) Cheers, -- Guilhem. [0] https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5258#section-5

Howto pin user in proxy/director <-> backend server setup
by Marc Roos 12 Nov '19

12 Nov '19

I have 1x proxy/director server 2x backend mail server The backend servers are using a ldap database and do not have the option to put a proxy=y value. So I put this as a default in the passdb option in the proxy/director config. When I do telnet localhost 110 on the proxy/director, I can authenticate with a test account on svr1.local 1. Will automatically all users be directed to the first server configured in director_mail_servers = svr1.local svr2.local, when the do not have a proxy=y or host=? If this is the case maybe, we should write this somewhere on https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Director https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/authentication/proxies/ 2. If I change the host= in the ldap server, I think the proxy/director has archived the previous host and still redirects to the old value. Is there a way around this? (stopping/starting dovecot -F resolves this) 3. Do I need the director even in this setup?

gssapi without passdb
by David Wells 11 Nov '19

Good afternoon. I'm configuring dovecot to authenticate users against a samba server running as an active directory domain controller. I followed the instructions as stated in the page https://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/Kerberos and considering the sentence that states [...]The Kerberos authentication mechanism doesn't require having a passdb, but you do need a userdb[...] I produced a configuration file that looked like this > auth_gssapi_hostname = $ALL > auth_krb5_keytab = /etc/dovecot/dovecot.keytab > auth_mechanisms = gssapi > auth_username_format = %u > mail_location = > maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/var/lib/dovecot/%d/%n:CONTROL=/var/lib/dovecot/%d/%n:UTF-8 > 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 = > } > plugin { > sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve > } > protocols = imap > ssl_ca = /etc/ssl/certs/cacertificate.crt > ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/certificate.crt > ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it > userdb { > args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes > driver = static > } When I ran these settings I would get an error that read > Nov 8 17:00:00 mail dovecot: auth: Error: > gssapi(user(a)KERBEROSPRINCIPAL,192.168.182.137,<IQMcOtuWI+3AqLaJ>): All > password databases were skipped > Nov 8 17:00:02 mail dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (auth service > reported temporary failure): user=<user@KERBEROSPRINCIPAL>, > method=GSSAPI, rip=192.168.182.137, lip=192.168.182.4, TLS, > session=<IQMcOtuWI+3AqLaJ> After Trying many things I finally modified my config > auth_gssapi_hostname = $ALL > auth_krb5_keytab = /etc/dovecot/dovecot.keytab > auth_mechanisms = gssapi > auth_username_format = %u > mail_location = > maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/var/lib/dovecot/%d/%n:CONTROL=/var/lib/dovecot/%d/%n:UTF-8 > 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 { > args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext > driver = ldap > } > plugin { > sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve > } > protocols = imap > ssl_ca = /etc/ssl/certs/cacertificate.crt > ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/certificate.crt > ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it > userdb { > args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes > driver = static > } The dovecot-ldap.conf.ext file looks like this > hosts = dc1:3268 > tls = yes > auth_bind = yes > auth_bind_userdn = %u > base = With this configuration I can authenticate to the imap server sending user@KERBEROSPRINCIPAL as my username and without setting a password so I'm wondering if the wiki page needs to be updated or if there is something wrong with my first setup. Thanks in advance. Best regards, David Wells.

Sieve vacation :addresses match only case-sensitive?
by Philipp Faeustlin 11 Nov '19

11 Nov '19

The recipients in the vacation :addresses String list are matched case-sensitive. If the recipient gets a mail with wrong case, the message is discarded with: "discarding vacation response for implicitly delivered message; no known (envelope) recipient address found in message headers" I think the matching should be case-insensitive. Is this a bug or do I miss some option? I'm using Dovecot 2.3.7.2, Pigeonhole version 0.5.7.2. -- Philipp Fäustlin
