Need help deduplicating messages fetched with getmail into dovecot mailbox
by Gabriel Kaufmann 17 Jan '19

17 Jan '19

Hello everyone, I'm using getmail to fetch some external mails from POP3 into a dovecot mailbox (providing IMAP). Getmail seems to have some serious problems keeping track of mails already fetched. I have every Mail exactly twice in my Mailbox delivered by Dovecot. Of course they are not in the original external POP3 Inbox. I hope I'm in right place here. I think the problem is not dovecot related, but getmail. As there is a huge number of user complains about getmail (and obviously no alternative?!) I hope to find some help here for a workaround. I noticed getmail can be configured for some kind of filtering to sort out Mails for local delivery to dovecot. http://pyropus.ca/software/getmail/configuration.html#filter-examples Does anyone know how to query the message-id (given by mail-headers) with doveadm? My first test was this: > doveadm fetch -u my-mailbox(a)domain.net "mailbox date.sent" message-id > "<369408722.286104911.1547114312259.Foo.root(a)someone.org>" But then I noticed this is only ment to be used with dovecot internal GUID - I think... Is it possible to query for the mail message-id also? Is it posible to reconfigure indexing to include this propery from the original message-file? I made a small perl-script to extract it using Perl-Lib Email::Simple. > To: my-mailbox(a)domain.net > *Message-ID: <369408722.286104911.1547114312259.Foo.root(a)someone.org>* > Subject: Some test I also already tried the doveadm deduplicate, but this also doesn't work as it is also basing on the internal GUID of dovecot and every duplicate-message seems to have a new, unique GUID. > doveadm deduplicate -u gabriel.kaufmann(a)gmx.net mailbox-guid May be anyone know a better solution. -- Best regards Gabriel Kaufmann

Accidentally deleted .imap folder, how can I reindex?
by Les 17 Jan '19

17 Jan '19

Hello, I have several users with Maildir format. After upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3, some directories could not be opened from thunderbird. The server log shows all kinds of errors including these: Corrupted record in index cache file /home/user01/Maildir/.Elk&APw-ld&APY-tt/dovecot.index.cache: UID 2802: Broken physical size in mailbox Cached message size larger than expected (18 > 17, box=Sent, UID=2802) While trying to fix the problem, I have accidentally deleted some of the index/cache directories. In particular, Maildir/.Sent/.imap and Maildir/.Sent/cur/.imap folders were deleted, but all of the mail message files are there. When I try to open the "Sent" folder from thunderbird, it does not show all of the messages. It only shows messages until 2019.01.12. If I send out an email from thunderbird, then a new message is copied into the Maildir/.Sent/ folder, but it is not visible from thunderbird. I have already tried to unsubscribe + subscribe to the Sent folder, but it did not work - it re-downloads all messages until 2019.01.12, but not after that. Can I somehow regenerate the index files, force dovecot to recreated .imap foder, and force thunderbird to re-download and show all of the files somehow? Thank you, Laszlo

I got a complaint from a FreeBSD user that they couldn't compile dovecot against MySQL 8.0.

Please report the problem to ler(a)FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the "/wrkdirs/usr/ports/mail/dovecot/work/dovecot-2.3.4/config.log" including the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. a /usr/local/sbin/pkg-static info -g -Ea). *** Error code 1 thanks! -- Larry Rosenman http://www.lerctr.org/~ler Phone: +1 214-642-9640 (c) E-Mail: larryrtx(a)gmail.com US Mail: 5708 Sabbia Dr, Round Rock, TX 78665-2106

Import mailbox from different domain
by Sergio Belkin 15 Jan '19

15 Jan '19

Hi folks, Let's say that I have on dovecot the domain example.net and on MS Exchange example.com. I've tried to import a mailbox from MS Exchange to Dovecot but it fails, I've run: dsync -Dv backup -R -u joe.doe imapc: dsync(joe.doe(a)example.net): Error: imapc(192.168.0.2:993): Authentication failed: AUTHENTICATE failed. Is there a way to submit different domains both on MS Exchange and Dovecot and to make everyone be happy :) ? Thanks in advance -- -- Sergio Belkin LPIC-2 Certified - http://www.lpi.org

Unfortunately what is not done is all the other work involved, such as fixing all the inevitable bugs it has and maintaining it. We do not want, at this moment, take up maintaining and developing yet another FTS plugin as we have plenty of things to do already. I invite you to setup your own repository and provide this plugin from there, being the maintainer of this plugin. We can add a link to your plugin on our FTS page so people can also find it. There are other plugins like this, e.g. https://github.com/st3fan/dovecot-xaps-plugin I turned the code you provided into a separate plugin package. The distribution tarball is attached. Notable changes: - Added example copyright headers and COPYING and AUTHORS files. You should modify those to your preference. - Added README and INSTALL files (in markdown using Pandoc). Those need to be amended with details. - Amended the plugin code to display a debug message with the plugin name and version upon plugin load. I advise you to turn this into a git repository and continue from there. I do not recommend releasing this plugin with the -fpermissive flag and the resulting warning as it is now. But I'm assuming this is still a work in progress, so that is OK. Regards, Stephan.

I already sent the changed in configure.ac, makefile.am, etc.. in order to include it in the dovecot, and it compiles properly The only remaining point is to push it in hte git (yes, everything is already done) On 2019-01-13 18:45, Aki Tuomi wrote: On 13 January 2019 at 17:05 Joan Moreau via dovecot <dovecot(a)dovecot.org> wrote: Hi Please find attached the beta release of FTS Xapian, with the objective to replace fts_squat that is being deprecated. Configuration is exactly the same as for fts_squat: plugin { plugin = fts fts_xapian (...) fts = xapian fts_autoindex = yes fts_enforced = yes fts_xapian = partial=2 full=20 This is installed on my production server (>120Gb of mailboxes), and I will observe it during the coming days. I will definitely appreciate that this is added in the core git of docevot, in order to have a versionning of it, to remove squat and let basic users able to avoid Solr alternative as much as possible. Thanks JM Hi! I still recommend you setup a, say, github repository for your plugin. We are not able to currently include your work in dovecot core as it is more work than just pushing the code into the repo. Maybe it can be included in the future. If you want, I can help you in setting up the required configuration scripts and such to make it possible to compile it as plugin. Then anyone can download it and install it for their dovecot, even if dovecot itself has been installed from packages, and also makes it possible for package maintainers to consider including it in distributions.

What does the mdbox_rotate_size influence?
by Marc Roos 14 Jan '19

14 Jan '19

I wondered why mdbox_rotate_size is 2MB by default. I thought if I increased it to 16MB, maybe there would be less disk io, but I dont see any difference. Furthermore I read in some thread that increasing it from 2MB, could give problems when deleting messages, can someone explain this? Does anyone have this on a cephfs mount, does it make sense to set this to 4MB?
