SASL LOGIN mechanism with nopassword
by Patrick Monnerat 18 Feb '18

18 Feb '18

Hi list, I've noticed dovecot pop3 does not request the password with 'AUTH LOGIN' when nopassword is set. dovecot-2.2.18 auth_mechanisms = plain login ssl = required auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes auth_ssl_username_from_cert = yes passdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext default_fields = nopassword=yes userdb_uid=vmail userdb_gid=vmail userdb_home=/var/spool/vmail/%d/%n override_fields = password= } userdb { driver = prefetch } userdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext default_fields = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/spool/vmail/%d/%n } Although this works perfectly well, skipping the password phase in the SASL LOGIN mechanism deviates from the draft for this mechanism at https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-murchison-sasl-login-00 I know this document is not normative and has not made its way to a standard. However it does not mention the ability to bypass the password phase. My questions are: - Is the dovecot behavior intentional ? - If not, will you change it (i.e.: to a dummy password request) ? - Are you aware of another server considering the SASL LOGIN password phase as optional ? Please don't tell me to change the config or to use the PLAIN or EXTERNAL mechanism: the real goal of these questions is to know whether this deviance should be supported by a client (more precisely cURL) or not. Thanks in advance for you reply. Patrick

Dovecot says the message was stored into a Spam mailbox but it's not there

FreeBSD Core dump: PAM authentication with Kerberos credentials (GSSAPI_MIT)
by Ben Woods 18 Feb '18

18 Feb '18

Hi everyone, I have a repeatable core dump when running dovecot on FreeBSD in the specific scenario described below. Dovecot is linked against MIT kerberos in /usr/local/lib/, whilst PAM is linked against Heimdal in /usr/lib/. My expectation was that dovecot authentication using GSSAPI would use MIT kerberos in /usr/local/lib, whereas PAM authentication is independent from dovecot and would therefore use Herimdal in /usr/lib/. What actually seems to occur during PAM authentication is the Heimdal code in /usr/lib/ is initially being used, but part way through it switches to using the MIT kerberos code in /usr/local/lib/. I have reported this bug on the FreeBSD bug tracker here: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=225818 Any help troubleshooting this issue would be much appreciated. I suspect it has something to do with the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS being used during the build, so I have attached the build log to the FreeBSD bug report. Thanks in advance, Ben SCENARIO: - Build mail/dovecot with option GSSAPI_MIT (link against MIT kerberos from ports rather than Heimdal in base) - Configure dovecot for PAM authentication, using PAM service "imap": $ cat /usr/local/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf auth_mechanisms = plain passdb { driver = pam args = %s } userdb { driver = passwd } - Configure imap pam to authenticate against kerberos (and enable debugging): $ cat /etc/pam.d/imap auth sufficient pam_krb5.so debug account required pam_krb5.so debug RESULT: This results in a crash of the dovecot authentication worker before any kerberos messages are even exchanged. DIAGNOSIS: Reviewing the log output below, my explanation of the backtrace is below (cronological order / newest item last): - Dovecot had successfully performed pam_start(), the necessary pam_set_item(), and called pam_authenticate(pamh, 0) https://github.com/dovecot/core/blob/2.2.33.2/src/auth/passdb-pam.c#L158 - PAM called pam_sm_authenticate() in /usr/lib/libpam/modules/pam_krb5/pam_krb5.c which successfully got the user, ruser, service, principal, password, checked local user, and then ran krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_default_flags https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/master/lib/libpam/modules/pam_krb5/… - Heimdal krb5_get_init_creds_opt_set_default_flags ran the Heimdal version of krb5_appdefault_time: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/master/crypto/heimdal/lib/krb5/init… - Heimdal function krb5_appdefault_time ran the MIT kerberos version of krb5_appdefault_string: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/master/crypto/heimdal/lib/krb5/appd… This is where the code path cross from using the Heimdal code to the MIT kerberos code, which it should not do. I know this, because the GDB backtrace shows the krb5_appdefault_string function called strdup in file appdefault.c:165, but the Heimdal appdefault.c file only has 140 lines. Reviewing the MIT kerberos code, the strdup function is indeed called at appdefault.c:165. Why did the Heimdal appdefault.c code call the MIT kerberos version of krb5_appdefault_string, when the Heimdal version was only 50 lines higher in the same appdefault.c file?

Hi everyone, I am using dovecot with a director setup for two backends. I want to add a third backend for use with the apple imap push plugin. Is there a way I can stick some users to this third backend and not using the director feature? Regards Patrick

Sieve to process list mail based on list-ID
by ＠lbutlr 17 Feb '18

17 Feb '18

Before I spend a lot of time trying to replicate a procmail script that automatically sorts list mail into mailboxes based on the List-ID header (and possibly some other data) I thought I'd check if someone had already done this for sieve. Basically, what I do now in procmail is 1. Get the listname from the List-ID header (or List-post/List-owner if no ID) 2. check against a list of list-ids and if the ID is not on the list, send it to spamc and put the message (if not spam) in the INBOX but mark it as seen, otherwise put it in Junk. 3. have some list specific rules (like rewriting reply-to, stripping subjected tags, etc. 4. Drop message in mailbox based no the ID. (so, dovecot mail goes into .dovecot/new but RandomFakelist gets scanned for spam and if it passes, marked read and put in the inbox). I've seen things like: if exists "List-Id" { if header :contains "List-Id" "dovecot.dovecot.org" { fileinto "dovecot"; } elsif header :contains "List-Id" "others-list.example.com" { fileinto "other-list"; } But I am looking for something more generic, along the lines of $myLists = {"dovecot", "postfix", "other-list") if header :contains "List-ID" "<([^\.])+." { $myID $1; } if $myList :contains $myID { if { $myID is other-list { set $myID to Olist; set header "reply-to" to "moderator@users+other@foo.example.net"; } fileinto $myID; } else { send message to spamc and await results; if spam {fileinto "Junk";} else {fileinto "INBOX";} (obviously that's not the code, but it should give an idea of the sorts of things I want to do and would rather not entirely duplicate. Obviously, I don't know if sieve does variables at all (none of the few example scripts I've looked at have them, but then again most procamil scripts don't have them either). Does sieve support that sort of matching?

`mail_crypt` Doesn't Appear to be Working
by jordan.h＠startmail.com 17 Feb '18

17 Feb '18

Dovecot version: 2.2.22 (fe789d2) I generated an EC key from the page https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/. For reference here's my /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail-crypt.conf file: ---- mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_crypt plugin { # mail_crypt_global_private_key = </etc/dovecot/ecprivkey.pem mail_crypt_global_public_key = </etc/dovecot/ecpubkey.pem mail_crypt_save_version = 2 } ---- I saw in a previous message on this mailing list that messages can be encrypted without the private key, so it's stored elsewhere. :-) After restarting dovecot and sending myself a message I found that the message was still unencrypted. Nothing in /var/log/dovecot/*.log files or syslog indicated any problem loading the plugin (I even made some mistakes with the filename beforehand, and errors indicated it was trying to find the plugin). In case in matters dovecot was installed as part of the automated iredmail install (https://iredmail.org) I didn't modify the dovecot.conf file after installation (except for thinking I needed to add `mail_crypt` to `plugins`, then figuring I didn't). Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Director & Master Users
by Travis Dolan 16 Feb '18

16 Feb '18

Hello, I have Director setup to proxy requests to backend servers. This works fine when using "standard" username/passwords. I am not try to enable the use of the Dovecot Master user through Director into the backend servers. a.) username is being sent as masteruser*username b.) request hits the proxy and authenticates, and then is passed to the backend servers and fails auth. - logs from proxy/Director point of view. auth: Info: passwd-file(masteruser,172.31.33.224,master,<z2eYD0Rl6P+sHyHg>): Master user logging in as devteam imap-login: Info: proxy(devteam): Login failed to backend.servers:143 (master masteruser): [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Authentication failed.: user=<devteam>, method=PLAIN, rip=172.31.33.224, lip=192.168.71.20, session=<z2eYD0R l6P+sHyHg> - logs from backend server point of view. imap-login: Info: Disconnected (auth failed, 1 attempts in 2 secs): user=<masterusername>, method=PLAIN, rip=192.168.71.20, lip=192.168.71.99, session=<O8QN8kNlloXAqEcU> Proxy/Director Configs (hopefully this is enough) auth_master_user_separator = * passdb { driver = passwd-file args = /etc/dovecot/conf.d/master-user-password master = yes pass = yes } passdb { driver = static args = proxy=y nopassword=y } Please let me know if I can provide any further details. Thanks in advance.

Selective authentication mechanism
by Brian Topping 16 Feb '18

16 Feb '18

Hi all! I have been using GSSAPI authentication method for all my externally reachable endpoints for some time under the theory that they cannot be hit with a dictionary attack. Unfortunately, this means iOS devices cannot log in since they (oddly) cannot use GSSAPI. I say “oddly” because desktop Mac mail can use GSSAPI just fine and https://samuelyates.wordpress.com/2013/10/11/kerberos-single-sign-on-in-ios… goes through how to set it up for web pages. In any event, what I’m looking to do is use a filter (https://wiki.dovecot.org/ConfigFile#Filters) around the auth_mechanisms such that it will allow plain authentication when the client is on a local network or the VPN. Unfortunately, the fine print on filters says "These filters work for most of the settings, but most importantly auth settings currently only support the protocol filter”. I guess it’s kind of academic, but I thought I’d ask why this is a limitation? If there is not a profound security reason to not support this, is this a good enough use case to consider it? Thanks! Brian

ACLs, shared, public, virtual mailboxes not working
by David Mehler 15 Feb '18

15 Feb '18

Hello, I'm running Dovecot 2.2.3, and am having issues with my public folders, shared folders, and virtual/ALl folders apparently ACLs are on that list as well. I was debugging an unrelated problem with my smtp server and got the following dovecot debug log output. Below is also a doveconf -n output as well as my shared-folder definition file and my global-acls file. What I'm trying to accomplish is: 1. Have a public folder that any user on the system can put messages into and respond to. 2. Have a shared folder in which user1(a)example.com and user1(a)example2.com can exchange messages. 3. For each user on the system give them a Virtual/All folder for *all of their messages. I'd appreciate any help. As an aside if anyone sees an issue with my SSL ciphers list i'd appreciate knowing that as well, in brief I'm trying to get the most secure list, pfs, and not worrying about backware compatibility. If it's not TLS 1.2 I don't touch it. Thanks. Dave.
