I'm not sure your problem is the same as mine. Apart from getting a lot of these log messages ... Oct 24 21:32:54 server dovecot: imap-login: Maximum number of connections from user+IP exceeded (mail_max_userip_connections=12): user=<user> my users are not reporting any functional problems. I investigated this a little further. I bumped mail_max_userip_connections to 100, and looked at one of these connection bursts for one of my users. What I found was that it would steadily open new connections, hit the cap, then disconnect them all, and start the cycle over again. However, it would stop when the total number of connections made roughly equal to the number of mailboxes the user had. So a rough algorithm for these clients is for each mailbox[1..n] { if open mailbox[i] { ... do operation ... } else { // Hit cap close all open mailboxes } } close all open mailbox For example, if the user has 13 mailboxes and mail_max_userip_connections=5, you would see (c=connect, d=disconnect, m=max log lessage): ccccc m ddddd ccccc m ddddd ccc ddd I'm not sure whether the reader client displays partial results, or it collects all the results when the entire operation finishes. So the final effect I saw of bumping mail_max_userip_connections from the server perspective is that I get fewer "Maximum number of connections" log messages. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

client unable to send mail, dovecot-imap errors
by GE Junk 02 Dec '17

02 Dec '17

Hi, I have an email client that is currently unable to send mail through imap. I am getting a ton of errors in dovecot-imap.log. All of these errors continue to show up, even after purging the dovecot*.* files from the offending folders. This happens to all email accounts on the server. Clearing the cache files doesn't fix, the error appears pretty much immediately after the new cache is generated. ============================== Error: mmap() failed with file path/Maildir/dovecot.index.cache: Invalid argument ============================== These errors are associated with an account unable to send right now. They seem to have only started since the send problem started. ============================== Error: Corrupted transaction log file path/Maildir/dovecot.index.log seq 5: indexid changed 1512100549 -> 1512183737 (sync_offset=0) Error: Index path/Maildir/dovecot.index: Lost log for seq=5 offset=12576: Failed to map file seq=178 offset=40..18446744073709551615 (ret=0) Warning: fscking index file path/Maildir/dovecot.index Error: Fixed index file path/Maildir/dovecot.index: log_file_seq 5 -> 179 IMAP session state is inconsistent, please relogin. in=26 out=1276 ============================== This error is also associated with the offending email client ============================== message repeated 9 times: [ imap(emailaddress): Error: Transaction log path/Maildir/dovecot.index.log: duplicate transaction log sequence (2)] ============================== Some additional info: dovecot: 2.2.22 (fe789d2) Ubuntu Server 16.04 Running on a qemu VM installed on an Unraid 6.3.5 Server 4GB RAM mail folder is located on virtio 9p2000 host passthru fs located on the same physical machine as the VM. Anyone have any ideas? Need additional information? Thanks, Eric

Lua Auth
by Mark Moseley 02 Dec '17

02 Dec '17

Just happened to be surfing the docs and saw this. This is beyond awesome: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/Lua Any words of wisdom on using it? I'd be putting a bunch of mysql logic in it. Any horrible gotchas there? When it says 'blocking', should I assume that means that a auth worker process will *not* accept any new auth lookups until both auth_passdb_lookup() and auth_userdb_lookup() have completed (in which I'd be doing several mysql calls)? If that's the case, I assume that the number of auth workers should be bumped up. And is a 2.3 release fairly imminent?

Autoreplies are not sent
by Sergio Belkin 01 Dec '17

01 Dec '17

Hi, Let's say I have 2 domains: - Virtual Mailbox Domain: example.local (internal domain) - Virtual Alias Domain: example.com (public domain) Every mail sent to @example.com is really sent to @example.local. I have a virtual alias that forward mails sent to support-abc(a)example.com is sent finally to: op1(a)example.local Now, I'd want to every mail was sent to support-abc(a)example.com it triggers an autoreply vacation style. So, I've wrote and compiled a sieve filter, something like that and put in op1(a)example.local sieve folder. But it fails complaining like that: nov 29 15:55:39 muteriver.example.local dovecot[12549]: lmtp(12675, op1(a)example.local) CqNdF6sCH1qDMQAAcSFsIQ: sieve: msgid=< ded22f3d-f1e3-157e-0667-ca73d851d1a8(a)example.com>: discarding vacation response for implicitly delivered message; no known (envelope) recipient address found in message headers (recipient=<op1(a)example.local>, and additional `:addresses' are specified) I've tried appending in dovecot configuration: lda_original_recipient_header = X-Original-To But it does not work either. Using: dovecot-pigeonhole-2.2.10-8.el7.centos.x86_64 and postfix-2.10.1-6.el7.x86_64 Please could you help me? Thanks in advance! -- -- Sergio Belkin LPIC-2 Certified - http://www.lpi.org

Re: iPhone/iPad IMAP connection bursts causes user+IP exceeded

Thanks for the reply and suggestion Robert. I have now set mail_max_userip_connections to 400 in 20-imap.conf to see if it makes any difference. Late yesterday the customer tested from his office, an older IOS 9 tablet and he had IMAP working in a matter of minutes, so is certainly an newer software version by Apple issue.

Username character disallowed by auth_username_chars: 0x13
by Alex 30 Nov '17

30 Nov '17

Hi, I'm receiving the following messages in my mail logs that I haven't seen before: Nov 28 22:45:31 bwipropemail dovecot: auth: login(?,179.210.41.21): Username character disallowed by auth_username_chars: 0x13 (username: AB?) Nov 28 22:45:31 bwipropemail dovecot: auth: login(?,179.210.41.21): Username character disallowed by auth_username_chars: 0x13 (username: AB?) There's thousands of them, from hundreds of different IP addresses. I suspect it's an exploit attempt, but does anyone know which? I've added a fail2ban entry, but I'd also like to make sure my dovecot is not vulnerable. This is on a fc25 system with all updates.

Detect port number of SASL AUTH request?
by MRob 30 Nov '17

30 Nov '17

Hi, this is partly Postfix related, but I want to know if there could be way to distinguish port of the SASL AUTH request to segregate user services. Currently I use unix listener for dovecot sasl auth, but could change to inet_listener. Only way I can think is to have different SASL AUTH services for each master.cf entry where its needed. But is it possible for Dovecot to have more than one SASL AUTH services with different configuration setup? It would be nicer if there was a way for Postfix to tell Dovecot about the port the client connected on. Or maybe it can be done with a SASL realm? I'm not sure how? Any help please?

dovecot - 2 Faktor Auth

Hallo Liste, hat sich schon mal jemand mit 2 Faktor Auth für dovecot beschäftigt? Es geht dabei nicht nur um die Absicherung einer Weboberfläche sondern direkt die Absicherung der Standard pop/imap Verbindungen des Clients. Wir machen das auth bisher über MySQL. Rein technisch würde das gehen, da man die Password-Query beliebig anpassen und auch mit allow_nets arbeiten kann. Es wäre eher die Herausforderung für den Client den 2. Faktor zu erfüllen und seine IP freizuschalten. Man müsste dann ja Clients wie Thunderbird veranlassen irgendwie die Challenge des 2. Faktors anzuzeigen und zu erfüllen. Vermutlich kann man das nur mit speziellen Clients z.B. einer eigenen App machen. Hat jemand in dem Bereich Erfahrung und kann diese teilen? Danke, Hajo
