dovecot-pigeonhole running external script ends with signal 11
by Tobi 06 Jan '17

06 Jan '17

Hi, I'm running a dovecot 2.2.26 (self compiled) on a Centos 7. I have a sieve script which should run an external script (in filter mode) that encrypts the mail using the users pub key. I configured 90-plugin.conf as follows plugin { sieve_plugins = sieve_extprograms sieve_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.filter sieve_filter_bin_dir = /etc/dovecot/sieve-filters sieve_filter_exec_timeout = 10000 } The script is named SCRIPT and is called in my sieve script require "vnd.dovecot.filter"; if blabla { filter "SCRIPT" ["me(a)example.com"]; } the script returns the encrypted mail. I can call this SCRIPT without any error manually on the console as dovecot user (vmail). Also sieve-test "says" that the script called sucessfully su vmail sieve-test -e -t - -Tlevel=commands -r me(a)example.com -l /home/vmail/example.com/me/.Maildir /home/vmail/example.com/me/.dovecot.sieve /tmp/test.mail ... 23: filter action 23: execute program `SCRIPT' 23: executed program successfully 23: changed message ... info: msgid=<B5OEuIEvrCZzcoJ7A6fCF-ka2Nwz-Ze2UCO840Panvw.w7zr1vruaJMbDBwK63natps3v__yOgbhHy3ntACTU0s@redacted>: stored mail into mailbox 'INBOX'. sieve-test(vmail): Info: final result: success and I get the encrpted message in my mailbox. Just when it's called upon delivery via lmtp the script ends with signal 11 Jan 3 15:59:48 mbox2 dovecot: lmtp(me(a)example.com): Error: program `/etc/dovecot/sieve-filters/SCRIPT' terminated abnormally, signal 11 And in ~/.dovecot.sieve.log I can find the following .dovecot: line 23: error: filter action: failed to execute to program `SCRIPT': refer to server log for more information. [2017-01-03 15:59:48]. I have no idea why the manual call runs perfect and the call from sieve file ends up in this error. Does anyone have an idea how I could narrow down the source of this error? Or even better how to fix it? :-) Thanks for any answer tobi

dovecot.index.pvt view is inconsistent: error messages for public mailbox folder
by Andreas Ntaflos 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

Hi list, running Dovecot 2.2.27 on Ubuntu 14.04. A public mailbox "Public/Spam-Learning" in a public namespace with per-user "Seen" flags is configured like this: namespace pub { hidden = no inbox = no list = children location = maildir:/var/vmail/public:INDEXPVT=~/Maildir/public prefix = Public/ separator = / subscriptions = no type = public mailbox "Spam-Learning" { auto = subscribe } } The log files are full of error messages like these (got about 15000 in the last three days): 2017-01-03T11:19:28.242386+01:00 mailserver01 dovecot: imap(foo.bar(a)example.org): Error: /var/vmail/example.org/foo.bar/Maildir/public/.Spam-Learning/dovecot.index.pvt reset, view is now inconsistent 2017-01-03T11:19:28.248524+01:00 mailserver01 dovecot: imap(foo.bar(a)example.org): Error: /var/vmail/example.org/foo.bar/Maildir/public/.Spam-Learning/dovecot.index.pvt view is inconsistent 2017-01-03T11:23:50.209732+01:00 mailserver01 dovecot: imap(baz.quux(a)example.org): Error: /var/vmail/example.org/baz.quux/Maildir/public/.Spam-Learning/dovecot.index.pvt reset, view is now inconsistent 2017-01-03T11:23:50.775940+01:00 mailserver01 dovecot: imap(some.user(a)example.org): Error: /var/vmail/example.org/some.user/Maildir/public/.Spam-Learning/dovecot.index.pvt reset, view is now inconsistent 2017-01-03T11:25:38.419536+01:00 mailserver01 dovecot: imap(other.user(a)example.org): Error: /var/vmail/example.org/other.user/Maildir/public/.Spam-Learning/dovecot.index.pvt reset, view is now inconsistent 2017-01-03T11:34:14.351346+01:00 mailserver01 dovecot: imap(more.user(a)example.org): Error: /var/vmail/example.org/more.user/Maildir/public/.Spam-Learning/dovecot.index.pvt reset, view is now inconsistent 2017-01-03T11:41:37.488916+01:00 mailserver01 dovecot: imap(support.user(a)example.org): Error: /var/vmail/example.org/support.user/Maildir/public/.Spam-Learning/dovecot.index.pvt reset, view is now inconsistent This problem did not seem to manifest itself in Dovecot 2.2.25, we see it only after upgrading to 2.2.27. I am not sure what the effects are. It seems that messages moved to the Public/Spam-Learning folder are deleted after a short while (not by the sa-learn cron job, which runs every morning) but I currently cannot say if this is because a user deletes them explicitly or because Dovecot does something it shouldn't. So this observation is possibly not relevant. It also doesn't seem to matter what kind of IMAP client access the Spam-Learning folder. Our users use Thunderbird, Apple Mail, Outlook, Roundcube, Horde and various mobile clients as well. I have attached the output of doveconf -n for reference. What could be the issue here? Are we doing something wrong or is this a bug in Dovecot? Thanks! Andreas

expunging all mailboxes
by Michael Fox 03 Jan '17

03 Jan '17

Evidently, the 'doveadm expunge' command requires a "mailbox" to be defined in the search string. But is there a way tell it all mailboxes for a user? For example, something like: doveadm expunge -u user@domain mailbox ALL savedbefore 30d Thanks, Michael

two listeners with different "driver = " configs
by mj 03 Jan '17

03 Jan '17

Hi, I would like to have two seperate imap listeners, with different authentication settings, but the mailstore and userbase etc will be identical. I know I can do this: > service imap-login { > inet_listener imap { > port = 143 > } > inet_listener imap2 { > port = 144 > } > } But I'm unsure how to configure imap/143 with "driver = ldap" and imap2/144 with "driver = pam" Just to explain why i would like this: I am using pam-script-saml (https://github.com/ck-ws/pam-script-saml) to enable saml-based access to dovecot. I would like to have one listener 144 to only serve this saml authentication listener, and the regular 143 listener with driver = ldap. Is that config possible? Best regards, MJ

differential SETACL silently fails if no vfile exists
by Vincent Breitmoser 02 Jan '17

02 Jan '17

In version 2.2.13, with `acl = vfile`, setting a differential ACL permission doesn't work if there are no permissions set yet. Example IMAP log: b1 GETACL test * ACL test valodim lrwstipekxacd b1 OK Getacl completed. b2 SETACL test valodim -l b2 OK Setacl complete. b3 GETACL test * ACL test valodim lrwstipekxacd b3 OK Getacl completed. My expectation was that the file would be created with default permissions, and the requested change then applied. However, no acl permission is set and no vfile is created for this mailbox in the process. This does work as expected (and a file is created) if I set a non-differential ACL first: b4 SETACL test valodim lrwstipekxacd b4 OK Setacl complete. b5 GETACL test * ACL test valodim akxeilprwtscd b5 OK Getacl completed. b6 SETACL test valodim -l b6 OK Setacl complete. b7 GETACL test * ACL test valodim akxeiprwtscd b7 OK Getacl completed. - V

FreeBSD / dovecot 2.2.27 / libwrap
by Jim Pazarena 30 Dec '16

30 Dec '16

I have compiled dovecot2 for FreeBSD with the tcpwrap option. A tcpwrap binary gets built and resides in the FreeBSD directory /usr/local/libexec/dovecot an examination of the compiled options (using the FreeBSD pkg install dovecot2) confirms: LIBWRAP : on yet, when I adjust dovecot.conf with: login_access_sockets = tcpwrap I get the following logged error message: 20161229 17:02:49 imap-login: Error: connect(tcpwrap) failed: No such file or directory Is there any way to turn up some super logging so that I can find just what dovecot feels is the failure ? Or, does anyone have an idea how to figure this out? What little hair I have is rapidly getting pulled out in frustration! Thank you. -- Jim Pazarena dovecot(a)paz.bz

dovecot-ldap.conf.ext for FreeIPA usage
by Matt . 29 Dec '16

29 Dec '16

Hello, I'm figuring out how to auth users against FreeIPA and I wonder if someone did this without GSAPI. My users are stored in a mysql DB where I wonder what I shall use as authname, the username or the mailaddress. As the mailaddress is always unique it could be best but if a user has multiple mailaddresses under seperate domains username might be better. Any clue here and maybe an example for dovecot-ldap.conf.ext when using FreeIPA ? Thanks! Matt
