configured solr - question 1
by Wojciech Puchar 11 Dec '19

11 Dec '19

tested dovecot with solr. Works well. But it uses TCP connection between solr server and dovecot. Can it be password protected? I have other things than IMAP on the same server including remote users. i don't want them to be able to do mess.

Solr for Dovecot on Debian 9, package has correct binary?
by John Gateley 11 Dec '19

11 Dec '19

Hello, I am trying to get Solr full text searching working on Debian 9 with Dovecot, and I suspect the binary for dovecot does not have solr enabled (--with-solr). root@elephant:/etc/dovecot/conf.d# /usr/sbin/dovecot --build-options Build options: ioloop=epoll notify=inotify ipv6 openssl io_block_size=8192 Mail storages: shared mdbox sdbox maildir mbox cydir imapc pop3c raw fail SQL driver plugins: mysql postgresql sqlite Passdb: checkpassword ldap pam passwd passwd-file shadow sql Userdb: checkpassword ldap(plugin) nss passwd prefetch passwd-file sql root@elephant:/etc/dovecot/conf.d# If I want to use solr, do I have to build dovecot myself? I'd prefer to use the debian package (Debian 9 for now). Thanks! John

Hello, I am trying to get rspam to learn what is spam and what is ham. After following the IMAPSieve guide in the dovecot wiki (https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/AntispamWithSieve) the mail.log shows the following, whenever I move a mail from the Spam folder to my inbox and vice versa: sieve: Opening script 1 of 1 from `/usr/lib/dovecot/sieve/report-ham.sieve' sieve: Loading script /usr/lib/dovecot/sieve/report-ham.sieve sieve: Script binary /usr/lib/dovecot/sieve/report-ham.svbin successfully loaded sieve: binary save: not saving binary /usr/lib/dovecot/sieve/report-ham.svbin, because it is already stored sieve: Executing script from `/usr/lib/dovecot/sieve/report-ham.svbin' sieve: action pipe: running program: sa-learn-ham.sh Mailbox INBOX: Opened mail UID=2996 because: mail stream Debug: waiting for program `/usr/lib/dovecot/sieve/sa-learn-ham.sh' to finish after 0 msecs Error: program `/usr/lib/dovecot/sieve/sa-learn-ham.sh' terminated abnormally, signal 11 Error: sieve: pipe action: failed to pipe message to program `sa-learn-ham.sh': refer to server log for more information.

What we could provide now would be the XML-Response from Solr. The corresponding search query sometimes causes this error. But Solr's answer seems to always remain the same - in my opinion this already indicates a bug of Dovecot?

Re: Dovecot & OAuth

Hi! It seems there is a bug in the oauth2 driver, it loads the cert files wrong way. I'll make an internal bug report of this.

I can confirming using commands 'openssl s_client -connect <keycloak_server>:443' or 'curl -v https://<keycloak_server/' all returns normal and no errors. Altering some of the SSL options in dovecot such as 'ssl_ca = </etc/pki/CA/certs/root_ca.pem' or 'ssl_client_ca_file = </etc/pki/CA/certs/root_ca.pem' does not help either.

OAuth2 mail client
by mizuki 10 Dec '19

10 Dec '19

Hi all, I'm wondering if there are any IMAP client software alternative to Thunderbird who can handle OAuth2 other than using gmail, yahoo etc (ex, talk to local auth provider)? Thunderbird does not seem to support well at the time being so I'm wondering what other choices we may have for our user communities. Thank you very much. Mizuki

Hi Dears, I have one problem with Dovecot in My mailserver. Dovecot Quota setting is not working fine. plugin { quota = dict:User quota::file:MAILDIR/dovecot-quota quota_rule = *:storage=1GB } For example if i put the limit in 1GB, i have accounts in my mailbox with size of maildir in 3gb,4gb for exemple and if i running the command doveadm quota get -u ACCOUNT_MY_USER The user with 2GB should be return 100% or some number bigger , but return 45% used only, If i force running one force-resync, the quota-get return the size correct showing more than 100% Someone can Help me ?

[whishlist] new option for 'doveadm purge'
by Michael Grimm 09 Dec '19

09 Dec '19

Hi, I do store mail in mdbox format of 150m in size (dovecot 2.3.9). Once in a while I do experience mdbox files of smaller size, even after applying 'doveadm purge' and previous expunges by the users. like: -rw------- 1 vmail dovecot 104854595 Feb 9 2019 /var/mail/.maildirs/userX/storage/m.22 -rw------- 1 vmail dovecot 29088478 Mar 8 2019 /var/mail/.maildirs/userX/storage/m.31 -rw------- 1 vmail dovecot 98210890 Mar 20 2019 /var/mail/.maildirs/userX/storage/m.39 (Currently the counter is at file number 129.) Well, I never experienced missing mail or alike, but these "holes" in filesize irritates me, and yes, it is more or less a cosmetic issue. Nevertheless, I do sometimes want to get rid of these "holes" by backing up all mail and re-injecting the backup into a vanilla account of that user. And I used this approach when I wanted to store all mail messages in larger mdbox files; again, rather a cosmetic issue. BUT that takes a very, very long time contrary to the speed of 'doveadm purge'. Unfortunately, that command starts somewhere with more recent mdbox files and never from scratch (oldest mdbox file). Whishlist: Would it be much of an effort to implement an option like: 'doveadm purge -f' and '-f' standing for 'force' or 'from scratch' or 'from the very first message found' or 'you name it'? Thanks in advance and thanks for Dovecot and with kind regards, Michael

bash script hook lda_mailbox_autocreate for generate mail-crypt user encrypted private key with user password
by uxqex4efpu＠elude.in 09 Dec '19

09 Dec '19

What it is way most best for causing bash script run (as root) of time mailbox created (lda_mailbox_autocreate)? I use dovecot 2.3.4.1 in Debian 10. And I use of mail-crypt-plugin https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/mail_crypt_plugin/ I setup mail-crypt for requiring user encrypted EC key (mail_crypt_require_encrypted_user_key = yes). I want for passphrase encrypt EC key using client plaintext password. There is credential no stored on server. But for user with use password too bad, I concatenate user plaintext password with random salt. And then string to SHA512() hash and use as decryption key (mail_crypt_private_password) for EC private key. For above I have plugin config > mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_crypt > plugin { > mail_crypt_curve = secp256k1 > mail_crypt_require_encrypted_user_key = yes > mail_crypt_save_version = 2 > } And for returning userdb_mail_crypt_private_password, I have sql query > password_query = SELECT username, password, \ > SHA2( CONCAT('%w',salt), 512 ) AS userdb_mail_crypt_private_password \ > FROM virtual_users WHERE username='%u'; But how I generate key of user automatically? Note for generating key of user, I need user password plaintext. I never save plaintext password of user of the server. Also user of note creates in PHP of web of the server. And for security I do not allow PHP exec shell (php.ini disabled_functions). Definitely not leaving PHP doveadm access! For solving subject to generate user key encrypted, I do imap of call of the service 'imap-postlogin' the service likes document "Post-login scripting' write https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/post_login_scripting/ And 'imap-postlogin' execute my custom script with 'script-login' binary https://github.com/dovecot/core/blob/8606e1abb90a1c91357b84bf547a89564d0535… Here it is config for above > service imap { > executable = imap imap-postlogin > } > service imap-postlogin { > executable = script-login /usr/local/bin/generateKeys.sh > unix_listener imap-postlogin { > } > } And generateKeys.sh it is script simple for generating keys with sha256() hash product mysql. Variable of note ${MAIL_CRYPT_PRIVATE_PASSWORD} automatically put of 'userdb_mail_crypt_private_password' return of mysql field of query when documented https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/post_login_scripting/running-surroundi… > Fields returned by userdb lookup with their keys uppercased > (e.g. if userdb returned home, it's stored in HOME). Here generatekeys.sh > #!/bin/bash > if [ `/usr/bin/doveadm mailbox cryptokey list -u "${USER}" -U > /dev/null | wc -l` -lt 2 ]; then > /usr/bin/doveadm -o "plugin/mail_crypt_private_password=${MAIL_CRYPT_PRIVATE_PASSWORD}" mailbox cryptokey generate -u "${USER}" -U > /dev/null > fi > exec "$@" This work! But I want more good. By why execute each login? Possible has generateKeys.sh execute in the times only of dovecot create mailbox (lda_mailbox_autocreate) instead?

Execute a script from dovecot when authentication fails
by nb 09 Dec '19

09 Dec '19

Hello, My name is Noury, and I’m new here. I’ve been using dovecot IMAP for years, but I want to do now some extra things. I want to call a script from within dovecot, to build a suspicious IP addresses list when authentication fails. I have tried the PostLoginScripting technic. It works fine but it doesn’t suit my needs. The script executes only after a successful login. I want to execute my script only when auth fails. If I can execute a script and check into it if auth failed, I would be nice too. A kind of « PreLoginScript" Is there a way to achieve this? I’m reading now auth.log file, but I would like to have a realtime processing. Thanks in advance. Noury
