Way to remove FTS indexes
by Peter Mogensen 19 Mar '19

19 Mar '19

Hi, I was wondering if there was anyway to remove FTS indexes in other to have them rebuild on the next BODY search? All the doveadm commands I can find seem to result in fully build indexes. (which is nice if that's what you want). /Peter

Re: Upgrade from 2.1.17 2.2.36

I use the MAC Foxmail client, v2.2.36 can't receive mail, but v2.1.17 can receive mail. I grabbed the network package and found that Foxmail was not processing the next step after sending the D LIST "" * command. I suspect that because of the time of return, Foxmail is not recognized, so I want to remove this time. 在 2019-03-18 18:03，Aki Tuomi 写道： > On 18.3.2019 12.00, lty via dovecot wrote: > >> v2.1.1 >> >> v2.2.36 >> >> The screenshot is the result returned by imap. >> >> I don't want to want dovecot to return time, can I close it? > > Why do you want this? > > Aki

AD ldap, filter to exclude various kinds of expired, disabled etc etc users
by mj 19 Mar '19

19 Mar '19

Hi, I was revising our AD ldap user_filter and pass_filter to exclude more types of expired / disabled accounts. I started adding things like: > (&(objectclass=person)(sAMAccountName=%n)(!useraccountcontrol=514)(!(useraccountcontrol=546))(!(useraccountcontrol=66050))(!(useraccountcontrol=8388608))) but then I thought, why not simply do: > (&(objectclass=person)(sAMAccountName=%n)(userAccountControl=512)) as 512 would your regular active user accounts only, excluding all other account types. Looking here (https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/305144/how-to-use-useraccountcontr…) there are some many different userAccountControl to check, that it might be smarter to only allow userAccountControl=512, or....? Any ideas on this..? (or examples of how you do it?) MJ

dovecot-openssl-common.c and [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
by Rupert Gallagher 18 Mar '19

Warnings from clang 7.0 when compiling dovecot-openssl-common.c from dovecot 2.3.5 with openssl 1.1.1a. This is dovecot's configuration: > config_options="--prefix=$prefix \ > --sysconfdir=$prefix/etc \ > --datarootdir=$prefix/share \ > --mandir=$man \ > --docdir=$doc \ > --with-docs \ > --with-ssl=openssl --with-ssldir=$prefix/etc \ > --with-sodium \ > --with-libiconv-prefix=/opt/libiconv \ > \ > --with-bzlib=no \ > --with-gssapi=no \ > --with-ldap=no \ > --with-lucene=no \ > --with-lz4=no \ > --with-lzma=no \ > --with-pam=no \ > --with-solr=no \ > --with-sql=no \ > --with-vpopmail=no \ > --with-zlib=no \ > \ > --enable-dependency-tracking"; Note on passing: --with-ssldir=$prefix/etc is ignored by the configurator, as it forces $prefix/etc/dovecot.

Dovecot logrotation - old journal files are still in use (second attempt)
by Denis V Razumovskiy 18 Mar '19

18 Mar '19

Hi all Sorry, it is the second attempt due to wrong format of the first message. In my Dovecot there are 3 files of logging (debug, info and .log) While executing logrotation, the new files are created, but the previos ones, namely dovecot.*.1 are still in use by the process Here is the logger process in memory: root 19140 0.0 0.0 4140 1576 ? S Mar12 0:06 dovecot/log Here the files it uses after the daily logrotation had happened: # lsof -p19140 |grep log ... log 19140 root 33w REG 9,3 811 417675 /var/log/dovecot.log.1 log 19140 root 34w REG 9,3 2842123 417681 /var/log/dovecot.info.1 log 19140 root 35w REG 9,3 14853918 417683 /var/log/dovecot.debug.1 ... After the manual issue 'doveadm log reopen` command the files are changed to # lsof -p19140 |grep dovecot\\\. ... log 19140 root 33w REG 9,3 0 417651 /var/log/dovecot.log log 19140 root 34w REG 9,3 121374 417690 /var/log/dovecot.info log 19140 root 35w REG 9,3 916153 417691 /var/log/dovecot.debug as it is expected to be. I use the logrotate config for dovecot instance: /var/log/dovecot.log /var/log/dovecot.info /var/log/dovecot.debug { daily rotate 14 missingok notifempty compress delaycompress sharedscripts postrotate doveadm log reopen chmod 666 /var/log/dovecot.log chmod 666 /var/log/dovecot.info chmod 666 /var/log/dovecot.debug endscript } At the same time, dovecot itself still uses previous logs: # lsof |grep var\/log\/dovecot\. dovecot 19138 root 8w REG 9,3 12962 417613 /var/log/dovecot.log.1 (deleted) dovecot 19138 root 9w REG 9,3 4097250 416836 /var/log/dovecot.info.1 (deleted) dovecot 19138 root 10w REG 9,3 23816347 417603 /var/log/dovecot.debug.1 (deleted) What can be the root of the issue? I use Dovecot as LDA for Postfix with system users, mbox mail format. System Slackware 12.0 x86, Postfix 2.4.5, Dovecot 2.2.36. Interconnect Postfix-Dovecot has been made via `mailbox_command = ...' Dovecot was compiled from sources Logging configuration (file conf.d/10-logging.conf) contains the following: log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot.info debug_log_path = /var/log/dovecot.debug auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = yes auth_debug = yes mail_debug = yes verbose_ssl = yes plugin { } Could the fact, that Postfix require Dovecot logs to be accessible someway, result in such a weird behavior? To allow other processes to access Dovecot logs I had to chmod 0666 all the current logs while integrating Dovecot into Postfix delivery (please see `chmod' commands in the logrotate config above) Please ignore my previos post https://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2019-March/115075.html Thank you Denis Razoumovskiy

LDAP users issue
by Anushka Bandara 18 Mar '19

18 Mar '19

Hi Team, I have enabled LDAP authentication with webmail client and it works successfully. But I found an error with LDAP user's mail. Email is not loaded when I log with an LDAP user. Login phase is successful and mail box is the issue. I created a mail user without including LDAP and that user works fine. Issue comes only with LDAP users. *Anushka Bandara* Research Engineer Lanka Software Foundation +94715846018

`Spam' folder creation for multiple users
by Marek Kozlowski 17 Mar '19

17 Mar '19

:-) I've just added pigeonhole and a simple sieve script: ------------------------------------------------- require "fileinto"; if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES" { fileinto "Spam"; } ------------------------------------------------- If a user has this folder (`Spam') it works fine. If they haven't it results in an error. 1. Can I modify the script to create this folder if the need arise? 2. If not - what's the most recommended way of adding this folder for all users (~1000)? Thanks! Best regards, Marek
