configuration sanity check
by David Mehler 29 Apr '17

29 Apr '17

Hello, Can I get a sanity check on this configuration? It's a database setup of Dovecot 2.2 with Postfix. I'm having issues and i'd like to know if there's anything glaringly wrong with my configuration? With the password hash situation, should I go with SHA512, SHA512-CRYPT or the SSHA512-CRYPT? Thanks. Dave. # 2.2.29.1 (e0b76e3): /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.18 (29cc74d) # OS: FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p18 amd64 auth_default_realm = example.com auth_mechanisms = plain

Re: dovecot mdbox never fix broken indexes

We are running dovecot 2.2.27 on solaris 10 and have several hundred accounts with this map inconsistency: Apr 27 12:51:06 <servername> dovecot: [ID 583609 local0.warning] lda(<userid>): Warning: mdbox /<storage-path>: Inconsistency in map index (10,29152 != 10,63560) The users of these accounts can't delete or move mails and often have trouble logging in or lags, because dovecot will try to fix the error and possibly disconnect them at any action. The warning does not occur on every action (imap/pop3 or lda). We did not have a hard reboot or any hardware trouble out of the ordinary (the machine is old and intermittently under higher load). After a variable length of time with these warnings the user accounts develop the following error: Apr 26 22:50:09 <servername> dovecot: [ID 583609 local0.error] imap(<userid>@): Error: Log synchronization error at seq=28,offset=117000 for /<storage-path>/dovecot.map.index: Extension record inc drops number below zero (uid=<uid>, diff=-1, orig=0) force-resync did not help at any stage of the problem and only got the index to continually count up. The only solution we found through which we could save the users flags is to copy the mdbox-files, delete the originals, and then re-import the copy into the user's account via doveadm import. Best regards, Catherina Koehl

Pigeonhole / Bug with "duplicate" ?
by Gilles Chauvin 28 Apr '17

28 Apr '17

Hello, Previously, while running Dovecot 2.2.27/Pigeonhole 0.4.16 the following code snippet was working as one would expect: if duplicate { addflag ["\\seen", "Duplicate"]; fileinto "Duplicate"; stop; } if address :contains "to" "user.email(a)example.com" { addflag "$label1"; } After upgrading to Dovecot 2.2.29.1/Pigeonhole 0.4.18 it's not working anymore. When an e-mail is sent to the user the "$label1" isn't applied at all to the message (in the case it's NOT a duplicate). Downgrading to Dovecot 2.2.29.1/Pigeonhole 0.4.17 exposes the same incorrect behaviour. Downgrading to Dovecot 2.2.29.1/Pigeonhole 0.4.16 is OK. When running pigeonhole 0.4.17 & 0.4.18, commenting the "if duplicate {}" block restores the expected behaviour. Looks like a bug that appeared in 0.4.17? Am I correct? Kind regards, Gilles.

Problems with Dovecot to mysql socket with SELinux
by Robert Moskowitz 26 Apr '17

26 Apr '17

Anyone here running Dovecot connecting to mysql through the mysql.sock with SELinux enabled? I am getting access errors that go away when I put SELinux in permissive mode. I cannot find any direct help on this. Most howtos say to disable SELinux; they just don't want to bother, and in part I can see that. I have tried making a policy with allow2access and I get really bad SELinux errors with that. So I am looking to see if anyone else is running this combination? thanks

V1 Dovecot POP3 index migrate to V3
by Umut Arus 26 Apr '17

26 Apr '17

Hi, I've very old Dovecot version so I'm trying to migrate new disk and current version of dovecot. But POP3 accounts have "version 1" .INBOX/dovecot-uidlist files so clients download the messages again. How can achieve not to download to mailbox after copy to new disk? Is there any script or something to migrate index v1 to v3? thanks for your suggestions.
