fsck looping duplicate mdbox GUIDs
by Dirk Koopman 01 Jul '17

01 Jul '17

I have recently updated with 2.2.29.1-avh1~xenial1 ubuntu package on 16.04. It appears that I have a couple of duplicate GUIDs which fsck can't clear so the machine is looping through doing continuous fsck runs. Any way to determine what the offending messages are and how to delete or otherwise stop this?

Auth Policy Server
by Daniel Miller 30 Jun '17

30 Jun '17

I've made a preliminary auth policy server in Perl - and it sort of works (mostly) - but I've got some questions on "proper" implementation. It appears the communication is HTTP based - is the intent to talk to a "proper" webserver, or is a simple dedicated daemon appropriate (which is what I made)? Should connections be maintained, or terminated after each response (which is my current setup)? If my implementation is correct, I may have found a bug, as I have some log entries like: Jun 30 08:24:20 bubba dovecot: imap-login: Warning: Auth connection closed with 1 pending requests (max 31 secs, pid=10253, EOF) Jun 30 08:24:20 bubba dovecot: auth: Fatal: master: service(auth): child 31631 killed with signal 11 (core dumped) Guidance would be appreciated. -- Daniel

imapc making too any connections
by van der Kamp, John 30 Jun '17

30 Jun '17

Hi, I was testing around with 2.2.31, and saw that it made new extra connections to the backend imap server whenever you make a new mailbox. So client does: A001 login username password A002 create subfolder Previously, dovecot would just send the create command to the backend, but now does (including connection IDs): [conn1] 9 CREATE "subfolder" [conn1] 10 EXAMINE "INBOX" [conn2] 12 LOGIN "username" "password" [conn2] 11 SELECT "subfolder" The new EXAMINE Command is a bit weird, but the secondary connection is a complete waste. I also haven't seen any other action on it yet, but it's kept around. If you make more mailboxes, every time you gain an extra connection from dovecot to the backend imap server. And they all stick around. I don't know which changes this behavior triggered, there were loads of imapc fixes the last couple of releases. John

Why don't you actually try it out (i.e. login in to SMTP with bad credentials) and see if the mysterious log entry appears. # Create bogus SMTP auth string AUTH=`echo "\0user\0badpassword\c" | openssl enc -base64` # SMTP session commands echo "EHLO test.client.helo\nAUTH PLAIN $PW\nQUIT" >data # Use whichever command your Postfix supports "250-AUTH PLAIN" # - if you greet pause, you'll have to enter data manually netcat -C mailserver 25 <data openssl s_client -crlf -quiet -starttls smtp -connect mailserver:25 <data openssl s_client -crlf -quiet -starttls smtp -connect mailserver:587 <data openssl s_client -crlf -quiet -connect mailserver:465 <data Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

I changed Dovecot to listen only on a specific IP address - and I still see localhost log lines: Jun 27 12:03:27 bubba dovecot: auth: ldap(SomeUser(a)MyDomain.com,127.0.0.1): invalid credentials The only other thing I can think of - Postfix runs on this server and uses Dovecot SASL. Is it possible the Dovecot auth log line is caused by a Postfix connection attempt? Daniel
