Thanks so much for the assistance here, Larry and Aki. Aki, you had asked me to send this core-dump to the list when I asked about it back in September; I did post the "bt full" output at that time, but there were no further replies: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2016-September/105428.html And for convenience, here is the "bt full" output I posted back then: http://pastebin.com/4xdGNXa6 So, this is where I'm confused: Larry, you mentioned "although you pointed to the wrong binary", which is a concern I had asked about back in September: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2016-September/105424.html I still don't understand how this is pointing to the wrong binary: # gdb /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda /var/vmail/tmp/core-deliver-6-5000-5000-29125-1473732949 Is /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda not the binary that segfaulted here? Sure, the gdb output says, "Core was generated by `/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver ...", but on the system in question, that is a symlink pointing to /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda: # ls -lah /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Sep 21 10:29 /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -> dovecot-lda What am I missing here? The mismatch message does say something specific about this: warning: the debug information found in "/lib64/ld-2.23.so" does not match "/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2" (CRC mismatch). Is this the result of pointing to the wrong executable when calling "gdb"? If so, where is the correct executable to pass as the fist argument? Again, for convenience, the pipe script I'm using: http://pastebin.com/zXzBDcvG And the debug output from said pipe script: http://pastebin.com/rz2f4S4G My full "doveconf -n": http://pastebin.com/hCgpA009 Thanks! -Ben

service doveadm : ssl problems
by nerbrume＠free.fr 10 Nov '16

10 Nov '16

Hello, I'm using dovecot 2.2.13 on Debian stable. My users are authenticated through PAM, and stored in an LDAP backend I'm trying to set-up replication with ssl, following (mainly) this : http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication 1) I only diverted from the instructed setup by not setting "doveadm_port = 12345", as it would give me errors of the like: > Fatal: /var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb: Configured passdbs don't support crentials lookups (to see if user is proxied, because doveadm_port is set) but rather specifying the port in the mail_replica setting : "mail_replica = tcps:my.domain.com:1465" (following a mail from here : http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2016-September/105356.html) So far, this seems to be working for me. 2) However, I'm having ssl problems. I have a let's encrypt certificate, and have concatened the CA cert and my server cert in a fullchain.pem. Excerpt from my ssl config : > ssl = yes > ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain.com/fullchain.pem > ssl_key = </etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain.comi/privkey.pem doveadm return me these errors (sudo -u dovecot doveadm -v sync -u user tcps:my.domain.com:12345) : > doveadm(casoli): Info: Received invalid SSL certificate: unable to get local issuer certificate: /CN=my.domain.com > doveadm(casoli): Error: doveadm server disconnected before handshake: Received invalid SSL certificate: unable to get local issuer certificate: /CN=my.domain.com > doveadm(casoli): Fatal: Disconnected from remote: Received invalid SSL certificate: unable to get local issuer certificate: /CN=my.domain.com Which I can reproduce with openssl (openssl s_client -showcerts -CApath /etc/ssl/certs -connect my.domain.com:12345) : > (...) > Verify return code: 21 (unable to verify the first certificate) Indeed, in this case, dovecot only returns the local part of the certificate (my.domain.com) and not the full chain (with the intermediate CA). While testing regular IMAPS with openssl is ok (openssl s_client -showcerts -CApath /etc/ssl/certs -connect my.domain.com:993) > (...) > Verify return code: 0 (ok) And I can see the full chain. So, it's seems to me that doveadm is somehow wrongly serving my certificate, truncating it, but I can't see why, and if this is a misconfiguratin on my part. I can post more config files or message outputs if needed, I kept them redacted here for the sake of brevity. Regards, N

search body with wildcards
by W. de Hoog 10 Nov '16

10 Nov '16

Hi, A question. We are using fts_solr. When searching for content in BODY I noticed that dovecot only supports full words. "BODY calibration" returns results but "BODY calibra" does not. Nor "BODY calibra*". Solr does support searching with wildcards so why is it that dovecot does not? regards, -- Willem-Jan de Hoog

tons of dovecot/config processes

Hi. I've noticed that dovecot (using 2.2.26.0 here) starts dovecot/config processes that stay for long time.

So looks like something is not right here. Obviously with shutdown_clients=yes this doesn't occur since clients are disconnected. doveadm reload can happen every 2 minutes (because dovecot requires reload when SSL certificates change; new domain gets added, new cert gets automatically created -> reload, certificate is renewed (every 2 months) -> reload etc) -- Arkadiusz Miśkiewicz, arekm / ( maven.pl | pld-linux.org )

Dovecot processes turning zombie
by Adrian POPA 10 Nov '16

10 Nov '16

Hi I am running Ubuntu 14.04 (plan to go to 16.04) with Postfix and Dovecot 2.2.9 from Ubuntu repository. Dovecot configuration has not changed dramatically since the days of Ubuntu 12.04 (can't remember Dovecot version). In the last months, connection to Dovecot IMAP service become more and more dificult. First Ubuntu Thunderbird refused to connect, than Android phones. The last one connecting regularly was an old XP laptop(!). Now it's facing problems too. Again, I did not make any configuration changes lately so only system upgrades (libraries) may have caused this. The first thing to notice was that some Dovecot processes are going zombie (defunct). At startup "ssl-params", then sometimes "auth", "imap-login" and rarely "config". Turning on debug logging in Dovecot show that offending process "is ignoring idle SIGINT". And "auth client limit (1000) reached". This behavior also impacts on Postfix delivery through Dovecot LDA with "status=deferred (temporary failure)" (I turned off mail sending with -e in lda invocation). Another thing is SLL connection. Attempts to test with openssl s_client show that Dovecot is not responding after ClientHelo when it should normally send server certificate. The very same certificate is used with Postfix and it works (I can send mails through Postfix) but IMAP connections to Dovecot do not. There is no protocol mismatch because I have try a local SSL connection (same computer). Initial messages are TLS1.2 but nothing in response. So my question is: did you faced such problems and found a cause (and maybe a fix)? Upgrading to Ubuntu 16.04 with whatever Dovecot version it provides may resolve the issues? Thanks

<-FIN <-RST ->FIN,ACK <-RST on SSL connection shutdown
by Heiko Schlittermann 10 Nov '16

Hello, a typical connection close, tcpdump'ed on the server side, looks as follows: 21:44:01.168131 IP xxx.xxx.3.101.143 > xxx.xxx.3.96.35518: Flags [FP.], seq 3982457856:3982457959, ack 1570044906, win 243, options [nop,nop,TS val 138698279 ecr 159494908], length 103 21:44:01.172405 IP xxx.xxx.3.101.143 > xxx.xxx.3.96.35518: Flags [R], seq 3982457960, win 0, length 0 21:44:01.172442 IP xxx.xxx.3.96.35518 > xxx.xxx.3.101.143: Flags [F.], seq 32, ack 104, win 342, options [nop,nop,TS val 159494909 ecr 138698279], length 0 21:44:01.172471 IP xxx.xxx.3.101.143 > xxx.xxx.3.96.35518: Flags [R], seq 3982457960, win 0, length 0 The server closes (FIN) the connection, and already 4.274 ms later the server sends a RST to the client. The clients response to FIN arrives some μs later. (On the client side the order of the packages is different (FIN from Server, FIN,ACK from client, RST from Server, RST from Server) This behaviour seems to be odd (the client side firewall complains about the unexpected packages). I can reproduce it using openssl -connect … -starttls imap .. on the client side. It happens on IMAP+STARTTLS as well as on IMAPS. It does not happen on plaintext IMAP. There I see the expected shudown handshake FIN - FIN,ACK - ACK.
