Virtual mailbox doesn't refresh without deleting indexes
by Bret Martin 26 Apr '18

26 Apr '18

Hello, I have a virtual mailbox with the following dovecot-virtual file: mdbox/* -mdbox/Archive/* -mdbox/Junk -mdbox/Notes all younger 604800 not deleted This works at first, but after messages are older than 7 days, they continue to appear in this mailbox forever. Even if I close all IMAP clients and reconnect, I can't get the mailbox to omit the older-than-7-days messages without deleting its indexes. I have other virtual mailboxes that update as expected, but I don't think any of those are date-based. For example, this one "refreshes" as I'd expect: mdbox/* -mdbox/Archive/* -mdbox/Junk flagged Am I doing something wrong with the first virtual mailbox I mentioned above? I'm using dovecot 2.2.13 on Debian GNU/Linux. Thanks! --Bret

Hello, I do not need the following, and have configured both source and runtime accordingly: pam, gssapi, zlib, bzlib, lzma, pop3, quota, fts, welcome, lda. Therefore, is it *safe* to manually remove the following from /usr/lib/dovecot/? lib05_pop3_migration_plugin.a lib05_pop3_migration_plugin.la lib05_pop3_migration_plugin.so lib20_fts_plugin.a lib20_fts_plugin.la lib20_fts_plugin.so lib21_fts_squat_plugin.a lib21_fts_squat_plugin.la lib21_fts_squat_plugin.so libdovecot-fts.0.dylib libdovecot-fts.a libdovecot-fts.dylib libdovecot-fts.la lib20_doveadm_fts_plugin.a lib20_doveadm_fts_plugin.la lib20_doveadm_fts_plugin.so lib10_quota_plugin.a lib10_quota_plugin.la lib10_quota_plugin.so lib11_imap_quota_plugin.a lib11_imap_quota_plugin.la lib11_imap_quota_plugin.so lib20_quota_clone_plugin.a lib20_quota_clone_plugin.la lib20_quota_clone_plugin.so lib10_doveadm_quota_plugin.a lib10_doveadm_quota_plugin.la lib10_doveadm_quota_plugin.so lib99_welcome_plugin.a lib99_welcome_plugin.la lib99_welcome_plugin.so libdovecot-lda.0.dylib libdovecot-lda.a libdovecot-lda.dylib libdovecot-lda.la

director stuck in inifite loop on 2.2.35
by Jan-Pieter Cornet 26 Apr '18

26 Apr '18

Occasionally, all of our directors get stuck in an endless loop. Likely triggered by some network event, but I haven't been able to isolate exactly what triggers it, and am unable to reproduce at the moment. When this happens, it makes the dovecot/director process on all directors unresponsive, making login impossible. Restarting dovecot "fixes" it. Here's the info collected from the stuck process. I hope that a dovecot dev could use this to either fix a bug in the async IO code or point to a possible external source that could have triggered this. Would it help to compile dovecot with -g and run a version with debugging info, to be able to inspect more when the crash happens again? "strace" showed this endless loop: 09:27:52.837960 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, 213, 0x7ffe8e642cdc) = 0 09:27:52.837993 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, 213, {EPOLLIN|EPOLLPRI|EPOLLERR|EPOLLHUP, {u32=3317538000, u64=94320799358160}}) = 0 09:27:52.838035 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, 213, 0x7ffe8e642cdc) = 0 09:27:52.838070 epoll_ctl(14, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, 213, {EPOLLIN|EPOLLPRI|EPOLLERR|EPOLLHUP, {u32=3317538000, u64=94320799358160}}) = 0 "ltrace" showed the same loop as: 10:38:01.773867 timeout_add(0x7530, 0x55c8c351df75, 965, 0x55c8c3515a00) = 0x55c8c5c658b0 10:38:01.774060 timeout_remove(0x55c8c5acf7a8, 0, 0xffffffff, 0) = 0 10:38:01.774239 io_add(213, 1, 0x55c8c351df75, 1070) = 0x55c8c5c658b0 10:38:01.774429 io_set_pending(0x55c8c5c658b0, 1, 0x55c8c54b8aa0, 0x7fb4ab11b06a) = 0x55c8c54b8aa0 10:38:01.774598 p_strarray_dup(0x7fb4ab703660, 0x55c8c5786e00, 5, 0x55c8c3723740) = 0x55c8c56d7530 10:38:01.774771 io_remove(0x55c8c5acf788, 0x55c8c3516d60, 5, 48) = 0 10:38:01.774957 timeout_add(0x7530, 0x55c8c351df75, 965, 0x55c8c3515a00) = 0x55c8c5c658b0 10:38:01.775129 timeout_remove(0x55c8c5acf7a8, 0, 0xffffffff, 0) = 0 10:38:01.775301 io_add(213, 1, 0x55c8c351df75, 1070) = 0x55c8c5c658b0 10:38:01.775492 io_set_pending(0x55c8c5c658b0, 1, 0x55c8c54b8aa0, 0x7fb4ab11b06a) = 0x55c8c54b8aa0 10:38:01.775662 p_strarray_dup(0x7fb4ab703660, 0x55c8c56d7530, 5, 0x55c8c3723740) = 0x55c8c5786e00 10:38:01.775833 io_remove(0x55c8c5acf788, 0x55c8c3516d60, 5, 48) = 0 That fd 213 is the next-highest FD opened, and is bound to /var/run/dovecot/director-admin.

replication and .dovecot.lda-dupes
by Patrick Cernko 25 Apr '18

25 Apr '18

Hi list, this question was already posted a few years ago (https://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-November/098585.html) I already asked the original queriest and he told me, that he never got an solution or workaround but it was not important enough for him. When using replication in conjunction with sieve vacations, the .dovecot.lda-dupes file is not synced with the other server. So when delivering to both servers (round-robin or randomized), senders might get more vacation mails than configured as the other server does not know, that the first one already sent a vacation message. Is this a bug or intentional? If it is a bug, I hereby ask for a fix, please. We are using Dovecot version 2.2.27 on Debian/stretch. This is dovecot -n (hostnames anonymized): # 2.2.27 (c0f36b0): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) # OS: Linux 4.9.76.1.amd64-smp x86_64 Debian 9.3 auth_verbose = yes default_vsz_limit = 2 G doveadm_password = # hidden, use -P to show it doveadm_port = 12345 listen = * login_log_format_elements = pid=%p user=<%u> method=%m rip=%r lip=%l mpid=%e %c mail_attachment_dir = /IMAP/mail/attachments mail_attachment_fs = sis-queue /IMAP/mail/attachments/queue:posix mail_home = /IMAP/mail/mailboxes/%u mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox mail_log_prefix = "%s(%u[%p]): " mail_max_userip_connections = 0 mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat" maildir_stat_dirs = yes 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 Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf driver = ldap } plugin { fts = squat fts_autoindex = yes fts_squat = partial=4 full=10 mail_replica = tcp:other-server sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve zlib_save = gz zlib_save_level = 3 } postmaster_address = <> protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service aggregator { fifo_listener replication-notify-fifo { mode = 0666 } unix_listener replication-notify { mode = 0666 } } service anvil { client_limit = 2250 } service auth { client_limit = 2447 } service doveadm { inet_listener doveadm-server { port = 12345 } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } process_limit = 2047 } service imap { process_limit = 2047 } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { port = 24 } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 0 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 0 } } service replicator { process_min_avail = 1 unix_listener replicator-doveadm { mode = 0666 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certificate.pem ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/userdb.overrides driver = passwd-file } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf driver = ldap } verbose_proctitle = yes protocol lmtp { auth_username_format = %n mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat sieve" } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat sieve" } And this is /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf (hostnames anonymized): uris = ldaps://ldap1/ ldaps://ldap2/ base = dc=domain user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) user_attrs = \ =user=%{ldap:uid}, \ =uid=%{ldap:uidNumber}, \ =gid=%{ldap:gidNumber} pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) iterate_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(istMailHomeServer=servername)) auth_bind = yes /etc/dovecot/userdb.override is currently an empty file.

dovecot HA setup across large geographic distances
by Sophie Loewenthal 24 Apr '18

24 Apr '18

Hi, I have a working postfix/dovecot config on Debian located in Europe[EU]. I would like to provide either an HA/load balanced setup with a second site in Australia[AU] because of users located between EU/Asia/AU. The site to site traffic would be tunneled through either SSH or a VPN * Has this been done with Doevcot over such great distances? * How can the delay between mailstore synchonisation be handled? ( Currently looking for an opensource product like Netex's HyperIP) I'd be grateful for your thoughts. Best wishes, Sophie Sent from a phone, thus brief.

Pass UniqueID to sieve scripts
by Peter Blok 24 Apr '18

24 Apr '18

Hi, If a user moves a mail to a Junk folder, this e-mail is going thru imap_sieve and ends up in sa-learn. I wrote some tools to immediately propagate that to the other node of the cluster as well as locally. Everything works fine, but sometimes I see a storm of requests hogging the CPU and I would like to collect some debugging information, Preferably I would like the permanent unique id of the mail in the maildir, but am looking for some kind of unique id that will help me identify if an e-mail somehow passes the sieve filter multiple times. Basically I have changed the pipe to sa-learn to my proxy that will send it across to the other node as well as call sa-learn locally. So something I can get in a sieve script and pass along. Peter

Sieve "redirect" changes envelope sender in 2.3. / pigeonhole 0.5
by Olaf Hopp 24 Apr '18

24 Apr '18

Hi (Stephan?), is it a new feature of dovecot 2.3 /pigeonhole 0.5 that a sieve "redirect" changes the envelope sender of a redirected mail or simply a bug ? A sends mail to B, B redirects to C C sees B (not A!) as envelope sender. It is not a problem if C gets the mail but if that mail bounces for various reasons it goes back to B and A will never know about this.
