Locks directory change
by Federico Bartolucci 08 Jan '18

08 Jan '18

Hello, it's the first time for me writing to the list, I'm trying to change the location into which the Dovecot's locks are done reserving a special temporary directory on an other partition, then adding to the dovecont.conf the line: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:VOLATILEDIR=/tmp_lock/%2.256Nu/%u so that through the VOLATILEDIR directive the locks should be written in this path. We observe though that the locks for many users are still done in the real maildir (NFS mounted filesystem) as if in some situations this instruction is not effective. Anybody knows if are there other things to change or to do or what could be the reason? (for instance to login in a specific way or doing a particular operation). Regards, Federico

Removing IMAP ID command
by Alex Hautequest 08 Jan '18

08 Jan '18

Hello all. Happy 2018! How can I disable the dovecot IMAP ID command, or hide the product name, so one does not eyeball what server software I am running (which happens to be v2.2.33.2)? Please see below for an example: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Ready. * CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN A001 OK Pre-login capabilities listed, post-login capabilities have more. * ID ("name" "Dovecot") A002 OK ID completed. A003 BAD Error in IMAP command received by server. * BYE Logging out A004 OK Logout completed. It does not seems POP3 advertises itself: +OK Ready. +OK CAPA TOP UIDL RESP-CODES PIPELINING AUTH-RESP-CODE STLS SASL . Thanks and regards, Alex.

Mailing list content filtering changes
by Timo Sirainen 07 Jan '18

07 Jan '18

I've now disabled all content filtering in Mailman, because of the failing DKIM/DMARC issues. Hopefully that solves them for now.. Although this will mean that we'll probably start getting HTML mails to this list, which isn't ideal. I guess an alternative could be to reject any mails with text/html MIME part, but that could prevent some people from sending any mails to this list unless they switch to a different client/webmail.. Also that feature doesn't seem to be possible at least with the Mailman version we're currently using. BTW. All/most of the Gmail and Yahoo users just got disabled by mailman due to DMARC bounces. I've (hopefully) re-enabled mail for all of them.

Re: Updated Dovecot 2.3.0 now getting 2 strange log errors
by tony 07 Jan '18

07 Jan '18

I did some more digging around and found this is reproducible on multiple hosts running the same version of Dovecot/Pigeonhole/Postfix. The problem resurfaces on any host to an account with enabled Vacation/OOO response. The Vacation/OOO reply filter was created in Roundcubemail, but has been fine for years. One thing to note is in Dovecot 2.3.0 I did enable UTF8, but even if I disable UTF8 the issue remains. What I have discovered after digging around is.. * After a fresh postfix restart all expected processes are running without any postdrop process. postgrey 13080 0.0 0.2 73036 21108 ?

quota issue - fs backend troubles with mount
by Arturo Bianchi 07 Jan '18

07 Jan '18

Hi, with the last update to version 2.2.33.2 I had problems with quota management; the plugin no longer reads the configuration correctly or something undocumented has changed! Until the version 2.2.30.2 the mount parameter work well, now no longer; so with... plugin { quota = fs:HOME:mount=/home quota2 = fs:INBOX:mount=/var/spool } ...the server no longer works and I read this in the log: Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib64/dovecot/lib10_quota_plugin.so Debug: Quota root: name=HOME=fs args=mount=/home Debug: Quota grace: root=HOME bytes=0 (10%) Debug: Quota root: name=INBOX backend=fs args=mount=/var/spool Debug: Quota grace: root=INBOX bytes=0 (10%) Error: User initialization failed: Failed to initialize quota: Quota root HOME: fs quota init failed: Unknown parameter for backend fs: =/home I saw that the method for acquiring the parameters was revised in the src/plugins/quota/quota-fs.c but I still could not understand why it fails! Some advice? Do I have a formatting problem or am I missing some news about it? Thanks, Arturo. -- 73s

TLS problem after upgrading from v2.2 to v2.3

Thanks for your reply; I used the defaults, both before and after the upgrade, cf. https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Upgrading/2.3 -> Setting default changes. The new defaults broke the connection.

TLS problem after upgrading from v2.2 to v2.3
by Jan Vejvalka 06 Jan '18

Hi *, The change in default SSL settings between 2.2 and 2.3 cut off a few clients; Microsoft-hosted Exchange (?) being one of them: Jan 4 11:02:56 kremail dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=40.101.4.hisip, lip=myip, TLS handshaking: SSL_accept() failed: error:1408A0C1:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:no shared cipher, session=<8SGob/BhTdcoZQS1> Explicitly setting ssl_cipher_list to the old defaults helped: ssl_cipher_list = ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2:!EXP:!aNULL Does someone have an idea what to recommend to the poor user or should I accept that I stay with the old defaults ? The guy is cooperative, so we can find out which of the !'s in the new defaults actually breaks the connection... if you think it's worth. Thanks for your help, Jan
