Can't remove a folder created with doveadm import from IMAP client
by Francis 22 Mar '19

22 Mar '19

Hi, I imported mails with the doveadm import command. It worked great, but now, I'm unable to remove the folder backup-2019-03-22? In Thunderbird, the folder is displayed with grey italic font. The command I ran: doveadm import -u user(a)example.com mdbox:/var/vmail/domains/ example.com/user/mdbox-backup INBOX/backup-2019-03-22 all I found this help page from Mozilla: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Grey_italic_folders. It says Thunderbird display the folder in grey italic when the folder have the \Noselect flag. Is it the case with the problem I'm having? If yes, how to remove that flag on the folder? Thanks. -- Francis

dovecot.sieve shows up as a mailbox

Hello, Config infos below. Short version, I am getting this weird anomaly on my main email account. Such that, "dovecot.sieve" is showing up as a mailbox in my various email clients (e.g. k-9 (mobile), and Evolution). I have tried deleting the "rogue folder" with doveadm, but it just returns. Anyone have any suggestions where I can track this down. dovecot --version 2.2.27 dovecot -n # 2.2.27 (c0f36b0): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) # OS: Linux 4.9.0-6-amd64 x86_64 Debian 9.8 ext4 auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_mechanisms = plain login auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = yes mail_debug = yes mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/vmail/%d/%n mail_plugins = " quota" mail_privileged_group = vmail 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 Archive { auto = subscribe special_use = \Archive } mailbox Drafts { auto = subscribe special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { auto = subscribe special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { auto = subscribe special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_grace = 10%% quota_rule = *:storage=10G quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+1G quota_status_overquota = 552 5.2.2 Mailbox is full quota_warning = storage=95%% quota-warning 95 %u quota_warning2 = storage=80%% quota-warning 80 %u sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_after = /etc/dovecot/sieve/spamfilter.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } } service imap-login { inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } } service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/little-beak.com/fullchain.pem ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } verbose_ssl = yes protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " quota sieve" postmaster_address = esteban(a)little-beak.com } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " quota sieve" } protocol imap { mail_plugins = " quota imap_quota" }

Re: imap ---- LIST "" * The returned mailbox does not display quotes

Yes, Foxmail for mac client, after dovecot upgrade from 2.1.17 to new version, imap can't receive any email, I perform packet capture test, foxmail will not have next step after sending {LIST "" *} command action. Foxmail for mac client, dovecot version 2.1.17 can receive imap mail normally, because we need to add quota_max_mail_size configuration, we must upgrade to a higher version (https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration# Maximum_saved_mail_size) After comparison, the new version of dovecot returned without quotes. I hope that the quotes can be changed in the configuration, can I? Can I change the configuration to add quotes now? Or add this setting in the next version. > On 21 Mar 2019, at 6.22, lty via dovecot <dovecot(a)dovecot.org> wrote: > >> dovecot version >> >> v2.2.29 >> >> v2.2.36 >> >> v2.3.5 >> >> LIST "" * The returned mailbox does not display quotes >> v2.1.17 >> >> LIST "" * The returned mailbox shows quotation marks >> >> Why is the quotation mark removed in the new version? > > Because they were unnecessary.

imap ---- LIST "" * The returned mailbox does not display quotes
by lty 21 Mar '19

21 Mar '19

dovecot version v2.2.29 v2.2.36 v2.3.5 LIST "" * The returned mailbox does not display quotes dovecot version v2.1.17 LIST "" * The returned mailbox shows quotation marks Why is the quotation mark removed in the new version? Is there any configuration option in the new version to add quotes? Because I see a lot of big public mailboxes with quotation marks.

Dovecot crashing when attempting to search in virtual folder with fts_squat activated
by benjamin＠godbersen.info 20 Mar '19

20 Mar '19

Hi everyone, I am running into a problem when trying to use fts_squat in a virtual folder. Without fts_squat plugin the search (from, subject...) works in all folders. With activated fts the search on the inbox folders works expectedly well but any attempt to search anything in any virtual folder leads to the following error. Similarly when attempting "doveadm fts lookup". I also noticed that no search index for the virtual folders gets build - is this expected behaviour?

Dovecot Wiki: Please disable edit on double click

Hi Aki, could you maybe disable the 'edit on doubleclick' feature on wiki2.dovecot.org? Everytime I try to select a word by double clicking on it, I end up in editing mode. It's just a minor thing, but maybe I'm not the only one who's annoyed by this ;) Thanks! Michael

Checkpassword.
by Niamh Holding 20 Mar '19

20 Mar '19

Hello, I've run into the issue detailed at https://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/CheckPassword#Security Understandably I don't have the skills to modify checkpassword so if I do the suggested will it work? If you can't change the script, you can make Dovecot's checkpassword-reply binary setuid or setgid (e.g. chgrp dovecot /usr/libexec/dovecot/checkpassword-reply; chmod g+s /usr/libexec/dovecot/checkpassword-reply) -- Best regards, Niamh mailto:niamh@fullbore.co.uk
