Dovecot auth SASL for exim and plain auth issue without initial response
by Daniel Kenzelmann 04 Jan '18

04 Jan '18

Hi, I'm not entirely sure whether this issue is with exim or with dovecot. First some background: I'm using exim with dovecot-auth which in turn is using LDAP for authentication. When using AUTH PLAIN with the optional initial response argument, everything is fine. However when using AUTH PLAIN without the optional response argument, instead of getting an empty challenge ("334 ") as per RFC i am getting a "535 Incorrect authentication data". Example: Working: 220 XXXX ESMTP 2018-01-02 22:32:33+0100 EHLO test 250-XXXX Hello XXXXX [x.x.x.x] 250-SIZE 52428800 250-8BITMIME 250-PIPELINING 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN 250-CHUNKING 250 HELP AUTH PLAIN XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX== 235 Authentication succeeded NOT-WORKING: 220 XXXX ESMTP 2018-01-02 22:34:37+0100 EHLO test 250-XXXX Hello XXXXX [x.x.x.x] 250-SIZE 52428800 250-8BITMIME 250-PIPELINING 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN 250-CHUNKING 250 HELP AUTH PLAIN 535 Incorrect authentication data Here the SASL mechanism should return an empty challenge as per RFC (i.e. "334 " in SMTP): RFC 4954 - SMTP Service Extension for Authentication 4. The AUTH Command [..] The optional initial response argument to the AUTH command is used to save a round-trip when using authentication mechanisms that support an initial client response. ====> If the initial ====> response argument is omitted and the chosen mechanism requires ====> an initial client response, the server MUST proceed as defined ====> in Section 5.1 of [SASL]. In SMTP, a server challenge that ====> contains no data is defined as a 334 reply with no text part. ====> Note that there is still a space following the reply code, so ====> the complete response line is "334 ". [..] RFC 4422 - Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) 5. Mechanism Requirements SASL mechanism specifications MUST supply the following information: 1) The name of the mechanism (see Section 3.1). This name MUST be registered as discussed in Section 7.1. 2) A definition of the server-challenges and client-responses of the authentication exchange, as well as the following: a) An indication of whether the mechanism is client-first, variable, or server-first. ===> If a SASL mechanism is defined as ===> client-first and the client does not send an initial response ===> in the authentication request, then the first server challenge ===> MUST be empty (the EXTERNAL mechanism is an example of this case). If a SASL mechanism is defined as variable, then the specification needs to state how the server behaves when the initial client response in the authentication request is omitted (the DIGEST-MD5 mechanism [DIGEST-MD5] is an example of this case). If a SASL mechanism is defined as server-first, then the client MUST NOT send an initial client response in the authentication request (the CRAM-MD5 mechanism [CRAM-MD5] is an example of this case). Thanks, Daniel

Dovecot panic for one user after upgrading
by Owen B. Mehegan 04 Jan '18

04 Jan '18

The EC2 instance that I run Dovecot on (personal mail server) was forcibly "retired" yesterday, and as a result I ended up rebuilding from backups. In the process I switched from Ubuntu Precise to Ubuntu Xenial (12.04 to 16.04), and this in turn caused me to upgrade Dovecot from 2.0.19 to 2.0.22. Now, although accessing mail seems to work OK using my various clients, I am seeing these errors in my logs: Jan 3 05:56:58 -- dovecot: imap(owen): Panic: file mail-index-sync-keywords.c: line 227 (keywords_update_records): assertion failed: (data_offset >= sizeof(struct mail_index_record)) Jan 3 05:56:58 -- dovecot: imap(owen): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x7aee2) [0x7fe9c08dbee2] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x7afcd) [0x7fe9c08dbfcd] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7fe9c0880a61] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mail_index_sync_keywords+0x828) [0x7fe9c0c1fdd8] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mail_index_sync_record+0xef) [0x7fe9c0c2079f] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mail_index_sync_map+0x238) [0x7fe9c0c21758] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mail_index_map+0x71) [0x7fe9c0c18de1] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0xd28fd) [0x7fe9c0c2e8fd] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0xd2f03) [0x7fe9c0c2ef03] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mail_index_open+0x78) [0x7fe9c0c2efe8] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(index_storage_mailbox_open+0x92) [0x7fe9c0c08042] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0x5e8d2) [0x7fe9c0bba8d2] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0x5e9b8) [0x7fe9c0bba9b8] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(+0x37b86) [0x7fe9c0b93b86] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_open+0x20) [0x7fe9c0b93d00] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(index_storage_get_status+0x20) [0x7fe9c0c073b0] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_get_status+0x37) [0x7fe9c0b940e7] -> dovecot/imap(imap_status_get+0x77) [0x55d3b4c3f977] -> dovecot/imap(cmd_status+0x1a9) [0x55d3b4c32969] -> dovecot/imap(command_exec+0x9c) [0x55d3b4c3806c] -> dovecot/imap(+0x193e2) [0x55d3b4c363e2] -> dovecot/imap(+0x1946c) [0x55d3b4c3646c] -> dovecot/imap(client_handle_input+0x165) [0x55d3b4c36825] -> dovecot/imap(client_input+0x82) [0x55d3b4c36db2] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x4c) [0x7fe9c08efc6c] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run_internal+0x101) [0x7fe9c08f1101] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0x25) [0x7fe9c08efcf5] -> /usr/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x38) [0x7fe9c08efe98] Jan 3 05:56:59 -- dovecot: imap(owen): Fatal: master: service(imap): child 18289 killed with signal 6 (core dumped) I have deleted the dovecot.* files in the Maildir for all users (did this while Dovecot was stopped, then started it again), but the errors persist.

03 Jan '18

Hi, I have recently upgraded to dovecot v2.3 on Ubuntu 16.04.3 from repo.dovecot.org and I switched to IMAPSieve for rspamd with the guide from the wiki. When a mail is moved from Junk to another Inbox or vice-versa imap segfaults. I have posted debug logs and versions below, any help will be greatly appreciated.

sieve - Failed to store into mailbox 'INBOX/${1}': Mailbox doesn't exist: INBOX/${1}
by Ludovic Terrier 02 Jan '18

Hello, First of all, happy new year! I’ve recently configured my mail server and was using a simple sieve rule in order to store all my ‘user+pattern(a)example.xn--com-to0a ingoing email to be stored in the INBOX/pattern folder. This setup worked very well. I restarted my server this morning (don’t know if it’s related…) and since Dovecot keep storing my emails in INBOX with following errors: root@server:~# cat /var/mail/vhosts/example.com/ludovic/.dovecot.sieve.log sieve: info: started log at Jan 01 12:13:56. error: msgid=<20180101111353.C332C25386(a)server.example.com>: failed to store into mailbox 'INBOX/${1}': Mailbox doesn't exist: INBOX/${1}.

dovecot-pigeonhole problems after upgrade to v2.3.0
by Fabian A. Santiago 02 Jan '18

02 Jan '18

Hello, After upgrading to dovecot 2.3.0, my sieve filtering is broken. I managed it via roundcube's managesieve plugin. my emails are not being filtered accordingly into their folders and when i attempt to access the filter interface in roundcube, my maillog reports: Dec 28 12:05:07 mail roundcube: <gs7miohh> PHP Error: Unable to connect to managesieve on 127.0.0.1:4190 in /var/www/roundcubemail/plugins/managesieve/lib/Roundcube/rcube_sieve_engine.php on line 222 (GET /mail/?_task=settings&_action=plugin.managesieve) Dec 28 12:05:07 mail roundcube: ERROR: Not currently in AUTHORISATION state (1) Dec 28 12:05:07 mail httpd: ERROR: Failed to write to socket: connection lost () Now I'm willing to consider the possibility that the RC plugin doesn't work with v2.3.0 of dovecot sieve but why wouldn't my current sieve filters be functional? -- Thanks, Fabian S.

Hi all, We're looking at replacing our existing NFS setup and using local storage on multiple nodes - using Director to send clients to the correct node. We have about 10,000 mailboxes using about 6TB at the moment, a mix of IMAP and POP, probably 65% IMAP. I'm thinking of moving from Maildir to Dbox; using 2TB NVMe drives in RAID1 as primary storage and 4x 6TB SATA disks in RAID10 for altstorage and probably smaller SATA SSDs in RAID1 for the indexes. I guess my question is, have other people had bad experiences with flash based storage on medium sized mail servers and does splitting the storage like these seem sensible for Dbox in terms of maximizing performance? Thanks! S.

Sieve can't move messages in a public namespace
by Paolo 02 Jan '18

02 Jan '18

Hello, my dovecot version is 2.1.17 I've configured some public namespaces (config attached). When a mail arrives at a certain mail address, that mail is handled by dovecot lmtp server and a sieve script is executed that shuold move the message in one of the namespaces. This is the script: require "fileinto"; if header :contains "From" "example(a)example.com" { fileinto :create "Cond-UFF_FORNITORI/CONTABILITA/Inviata"; } else { fileinto :create "Cond-UFF_FORNITORI/CONTABILITA/Ricevuta"; } The problem is that the sieve script fails with the error: sieve: info: started log at Jun 27 12:42:28. error: msgid=<c9154db4-ff68-52a3-2639-11f09f225f68(a)fcr.re.it>: failed to store into mailbox 'Cond-UFF_FORNITORI/CONTABILITA/Ricevuta': Mailbox doesn't exist: Cond-UFF_FORNITORI/CONTABILITA/Ricevuta. I double checked config, dovecot documentation, sieve documentation, ACL, filesystem paths, filesystem permissions, etc. etc. I'm pretty sure it's all right. So why isn't sieve working? Thanks if you bother to answer & Cheers Paolo

dovecot-submission SMTP send error with Thunderbird (BODY=8BITMIME)
by Reuben Farrelly 02 Jan '18

Hi, With latest 2.3 -git (and 2.3.0 release), I'm running into this error with Thunderbird: "An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: 5.5.4 Unsupported mail BODY type. Please verify that your email address is correct in your account settings and try again." This is fatal and means Thunderbird cannot use the submission service - fortunately I can revert back to a native Postfix service which works. Here's a tcpdump of the conversation: thunderstorm /etc/dovecot/conf.d # tcpdump -A port 587 dropped privs to tcpdump tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 262144 bytes 14:12:19.975982 IP6 2001:44b8:31d4:1311:45ec:e191:8093:3e9d.61175 > inside-mail.reub.net.submission: Flags [S], seq 572328223, win 64800, options [mss 1440,nop,wscale 8,nop,nop,sackOK], length 0 `._.. .? .D.1...E.....>. .D.1..........#...K". ........ .w.............. 14:12:19.976022 IP6 inside-mail.reub.net.submission > 2001:44b8:31d4:1311:45ec:e191:8093:3e9d.61175: Flags [S.], seq 3954361671, ack 572328224, win 28800, options [mss 1440,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 7], length 0 `.c|. .@ .D.1..........# .D.1...E.....>..K.....G". ..p.:4.............. 14:12:19.976158 IP6 2001:44b8:31d4:1311:45ec:e191:8093:3e9d.61175 > inside-mail.reub.net.submission: Flags [.], ack 1, win 8235, length 0 `._....? .D.1...E.....>. .D.1..........#...K". ...HP. +. .. 14:12:19.983409 IP6 inside-mail.reub.net.submission > 2001:44b8:31d4:1311:45ec:e191:8093:3e9d.61175: Flags [P.], seq 1:43, ack 1, win 225, length 42 `.c|.>.@ .D.1..........# .D.1...E.....>..K.....H".

Curiously enabling rawlog doesn't capture this error, which is why I used tcpdump above.

I would have expected it to capture the full conversation log including any protocol errors and failures like this. Reuben

Email1(a)domain.tlf > ? Email2(a)domain.tld > ? Email3(a)domain.tld Others have suggested a postfix method. You can also pipe it to a script that will select a destination to forward to alias "info(a)domain.tld" to "|/my/selector|script". This will work both in Postfix, sendmail, and probably most other MTAs. If you actually want randomization (rather than sequential round-robin), you can simplify because you won't need to record the last delivery. Use /dev/urandom or unix time() mod 3 to select forwarding address. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>
