Patch needed for debian buster in version 2.2.36.1
by Simone Lazzaris 02 Aug '19

02 Aug '19

Hi all; I've just compiled version 2.2.36.1 on a new debian buster (debian 10) and it seems that this patch https://github.com/dovecot/core/commit/ 63a74b9e8e0604486a15a879e7f1a27257322400.patch is needed to make it work. Without the patch, the authentication segfaults. *Simone Lazzaris* *Qcom S.p.A.* simone.lazzaris(a)qcom.it[1] | www.qcom.it[2] * LinkedIn[3]* | *Facebook*[4] [5] -------- [1] mailto:simone.lazzaris@qcom.it [2] https://www.qcom.it [3] https://www.linkedin.com/company/qcom-spa [4] http://www.facebook.com/qcomspa [5] https://www.qcom.it/includes/NUOVAemail-banner.gif

IMAP frontend authenticating proxy with GSSAPI/Kerberos SSO
by Gert van Dijk 01 Aug '19

01 Aug '19

Hi, My IMAP backend server is lacking SSO authentication, so I am trying to set up Dovecot in front of it as an authenticating proxy. Fortunately, my backend server provides a way to ignore the password provided and will simply trust the username given to be authenticated, using plain login authentication. I'm struggling with setting this up, as it seems to me that as soon as I enable GSSAPI/Kerberos SSO in Dovecot it ignores my passdb proxy settings and it creates a local mail store instead. Is this behavior intentional, and why? See also my Q on Serverfault.com [1], where some user has reported this set up to be working with the same backend server and provided some hints, but I believe I'm hitting a combination that cannot be working with this version. Dovecot version: v2.3.4.1 (from Debian Buster) dovecot -n (I'm using only a single flat file dovecot.conf): ===== # dovecot -n # 2.3.4.1 (f79e8e7e4): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.5.4 () # OS: Linux 4.15.0-46-generic x86_64 Debian 10.0 overlay # Hostname: imap.sub.mydomain.tld auth_debug = yes auth_default_realm = MY-REALM.DOMAIN.TLD auth_gssapi_hostname = imap.sub.mydomain.tld auth_krb5_keytab = /etc/dovecot/imap.keytab auth_mechanisms = gssapi auth_realms = MY-REALM.DOMAIN.TLD auth_username_format = %n auth_verbose = yes log_path = /dev/stderr mail_gid = 65534 mail_location = mbox:/tmp mail_uid = 65534 passdb { args = proxy=y host=127.0.0.1 port=1143 pass=#hidden_use-P_to_show# driver = static } protocols = imap ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot-ssl/cert.crt ssl_cipher_list = ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it ssl_min_protocol = TLSv1.2 ssl_prefer_server_ciphers = yes ===== My comments are lost with "dovecot -n", so here I repeat some why's. ===== # uid/gid of nobody or else: # imap(username)<15><6SCG0QOPgtcKAAYE>: Error: Couldn't drop privileges: User is missing UID (see mail_uid setting) mail_uid = 65534 mail_gid = 65534 # Have to set dummy mail_location or else: # Error: mail_location not set and autodetection failed: Mail storage autodetection failed with home=(not set) mail_location = mbox:/tmp ===== (Ideally, I don't want to set any local storage storage, Dovecot should just be a proxy in my case.)

Noteworthy in the above output I think is the line "auth: Debug: client passdb out: ..." which does not mention any proxy related settings any longer which aligns with my observations: - The client is then logged into an empty mailbox in local storage. Not okay. - No attempt to connect to my backend server is made (checked with tcpdump). Not okay. Somehow I start to believe that as soon as I set auth_mechanisms = gssapi, any args/field in passdb are ignored. Is that a bug or am I looking at a feature? What else have I tried: - Using imapc proxy [2], but that example config does not work in my Dovecot version with the error: auth: Error: prefetch(username,1.2.3.4,): userdb lookup not possible with only userdb prefetch - Using a passdb with master=yes and pass=yes. passdb { driver = static args = proxy=y host=127.0.0.1 port=1143 pass=dummypass master = yes pass = yes } This fails with the error: auth: Fatal: Master passdb can't have pass=yes if there are no passdbs master: Error: service(auth): command startup failed, throttling for 2 secs imap-login: Info: Disconnected: Auth process broken (disconnected before auth was ready, waited 0 secs): user=<>, rip=1.2.3.4, lip=9.9.9.9, session=<0i46qgWPntsKAAYE> imap-login: Warning: Timeout leak: 0x7efe483e8120 (auth-server-connection.c:397) Any help or clues are very much appreciated.

sieve scripts not synching for 2.3.5.1 pre-built
by Jan-Pieter Cornet 29 Jul '19

29 Jul '19

Hi, We're synching mailboxes, changing format from maildir to mdbox, using doveadm backup/doveadm sync. When still running 2.2.36, 'doveadm backup' also synched the sieve scripts, without issues. After the upgrade to 2.3.5.1, the sieve sync stopped working. We're using the pre-built 2.3 packages from https://repo.dovecot.org/ce-2.3-latest/debian/stretch In fact, when I now remove the dovecot-2.3 packages, and use my own old 2.2.36 packages, using the exact same config, the sieve scripts are being copied again. In 2.2.36, when I migrate a mailbox, I do see Pigeonhole being initialized. Eg: userimap-dev1:~ # doveadm -D backup -u xtra30 "doveadm -D dsync-server -u xtra30+mdbox=.8d1&4&03&xtra30" (note: that strange destination user signals to the auth proxy that we want the new mdbox storage instead of the default for this user) Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib02_lazy_expunge_plugin.so Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib10_quota_plugin.so Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lib20_zlib_plugin.so Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/doveadm Debug: Skipping module doveadm_acl_plugin, because dlopen() failed: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_acl_plugin.so: undefined symbol: acl_user_module (this is usually intentional, so just ignore this message) Debug: Skipping module doveadm_expire_plugin, because dlopen() failed: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_expire_plugin.so: undefined symbol: expire_set_deinit (this is usually intentional, so just ignore this message) Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_quota_plugin.so Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_sieve_plugin.so [...skipping a bunch of lines...] dsync-local(xtra30): Debug: brain M: Mailbox Spam: local=88b39d12998d9e5cbb700000436edcce/0/1, remote=00000000000000000000000000000000/0/0: mailbox not selectable yet dsync-local(xtra30): Debug: brain M: Mailbox Test: local=801bb932e98d9e5c3d6d0000436edcce/0/1, remote=00000000000000000000000000000000/0/0: mailbox not selectable yet dsync-local(xtra30): Debug: brain M: Mailbox Trash: local=fc9b162b86479f5cc85a0000436edcce/0/1, remote=00000000000000000000000000000000/0/0: mailbox not selectable yet dsync-remote(xtra30): Debug: brain S: Skipping unchanged mailbox e7c1961d84479f5c885a0000436edcce dsync-local(xtra30): Debug: doveadm-sieve: Iterating Sieve mailbox attributes dsync-local(xtra30): Debug: sieve: Pigeonhole version 0.4.24 () initializing dsync-local(xtra30): Debug: sieve: include: sieve_global is not set; it is currently not possible to include `:global' scripts. dsync-local(xtra30): Debug: sieve: file storage: Using active Sieve script path: /var/mail/.8d1/index/7/oldsieve/x/xt/xtra30/dovecot.sieve [... skipping a lot of sieve debug lines that seem fine ...] dsync-remote(xtra30): Debug: sieve: file script: Opened script `xtra30-testfilter' from `/var/mail/.8d1/index/4/03/xtra30/sieve/scripts/xtra30-testfilter.sieve' dsync-remote(xtra30): Debug: doveadm-sieve: Assigned value for key `vendor/vendor.dovecot/pvt/server/sieve/default' (last change: 2019-03-29 22:27:41) dsync-remote(xtra30): Debug: brain S: Import INBOX: Import attribute vendor/vendor.dovecot/pvt/server/sieve/default: Nonexistent locally dsync-remote(xtra30): Debug: brain S: Import INBOX: Last common UID=0.

submission configuration issues
by Jean-Daniel Dupas 29 Jul '19

29 Jul '19

Hello, I'm having trouble configuring the submission proxy. I have configured the submission service as follow: submission_host = smtp.example.com submission_relay_host = localhost submission_relay_port = 8587 submission_relay_rawlog_dir = /var/log/dovecot/ submission_relay_trusted = yes My main issue is that until I login, dovecot-submission won't connect to the backend and query the capabilities and so won't report the right capabilities. That mean that the first EHLO message don't get the right capabilities list. " EHLO example.com 250-smtp.example.com 250-8BITMIME 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN 250-BURL imap 250-CHUNKING 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-SIZE 250 PIPELINING " This list don't contains VRFY, DNS, and SIZE is not specified (all of these is present in backend EHLO response). After login, if I send an new EHLO command, everything is properly reported. The raw log shows that unlike what the documentation says, dovecot don't try to connect to the backend until the user is properly logged. In my raw log I show that after I logged in dovecot-submission, the later open a connection to the backend and send a X-CLIENT command. Now, if I try to force the capabilities by using: submission_backend_capabilities = VRFY 8BITMIME DSN dovecot properly reports all SMTP capabilities in the first EHLO response, but it completely stops emitting X-CLIENT command to the backend and try to simply forward the command without authentication, which result in postfix rejecting the command with an unauthorized user error. What is wrong with my configuration ? Thanks. Jean-Daniel

Hi, I'm becaming crazy about this! I've asked before, not no matter what i do or conf, never works. How can i make IDLE work for real with MSOutlook, so that i can receive emails when they arrive, instead of changing folder/get out and in my account? Here's my conf, should it be reflected in postconf -n (is it the running conf?): ================== root@fastmail:/etc/dovecot# grep -ir idle * conf.d/20-imap.conf.ucf-dist:# If nothing happens for this long while client is IDLEing, move the connection conf.d/20-imap.conf.ucf-dist:# IDLEing. conf.d/20-imap.conf.ucf-dist:#imap_idle_notify_interval = 2 mins conf.d/20-imap.conf:imapc_max_idle_time = 1440 mins conf.d/20-imap.conf:# IDLEing. conf.d/20-imap.conf:#imap_idle_notify_interval = 2 mins conf.d/20-imap.conf:imap_idle_notify_interval = 1 min conf.d/20-imap.conf:#imap_client_workarounds = outlook-idle conf.d/10-mail.conf.ucf-dist:# When IDLE command is running, mailbox is checked once in a while to see if conf.d/10-mail.conf.ucf-dist:#mailbox_idle_check_interval = 30 secs conf.d/10-mail.conf:# When IDLE command is running, mailbox is checked once in a while to see if conf.d/10-mail.conf:#mailbox_idle_check_interval = 30 secs root@fastmail:/etc/dovecot# postconf -n|grep -i idle root@fastmail:/etc/dovecot#

Since multiple ,matches

I have a rule in sieve like the following: if anyof (header :contains ["to"] [ "box", "change", "cornell”, “twitter”]) { setflag "\\Seen"; fileinto :create "misc"; stop; } The messages that come in are using address extensions, so user+twitter(a)example.com, for example. The trouble is, this sieve recipe doesn’t get triggered and the message gets filed into the extension folder “twitter” or “cornell” instead of “misc”. I have a very similar recipe following that one: if header :contains "to" "root" { setflag "\\Seen"; addflag "$label5"; fileinto :create "root"; stop; } And that one works as I expect. Is that multiple match format valid for :contains (I’ve only seen it used for :regex)? I don’t get an error. Is there a way to run a debug log for the sieve recipe? Preferably for a single user. -- Vernon: Now this is the thought that wakes me up in the middle of the night.
