That would be step 0. A good first step is to test whether you have basic authentication working (to separate out if you have a server or client issue). I assume you allow plaintext communication, but if not, substitute telnet with "openssl sclient -connect your-server:993": C: # telnet your-server 143 S: * OK [CAPABILITY ... C: x1 login testuser theirpassword If you get an OK response to this, it may be a client issue (check settings on client). If you get an error or failure, look inward: check logs and config.

Maildir Expunged GUID mismatch for UID
by Steven Xu 14 Oct '16

14 Oct '16

Dovecot version:2.2.25 Since we used to keep our email files on widows server, I made the following changes in maildir-storage.h #define MAILDIR_EXTRA_SEP ',' #define MAILDIR_INFO_SEP_S ":" to "+". Everything seems working except EXPUNG, The dovecot log is flooded by messages like following: imap(xxxxx): Error: Mailbox INBOX: Expunged GUID mismatch for UID 7039 Then I read the source code, and found the following lines in maildir-sync-index.c T_BEGIN { guid = maildir_uidlist_lookup_ext(ctx->mbox->uidlist, uid, MAILDIR_UIDLIST_REC_EXT_GUID); if (guid == NULL) guid = t_strcut(filename, ':'); mail_generate_guid_128_hash(guid, guid_128); } T_END; I have to change the code to guid = t_strcut(filename, '+'); So, should MAILDIR_EXTRA_SEP be used here instead of ':'? Thanks, Steven

update dovecot-acl in all subfolders in a public folder
by Lukas Henrich 14 Oct '16

14 Oct '16

Hello everyone, right now I have problem and can't find a proper solution. But first: dovecot-version: 2.2.13 Now to my problem: A client of mine uses a public folder called "groups". In this Folder are several subfolders like "Archive", "projects", "sales" und so on. Unfortunately this client (and his employees) created thousands of subfolders within these folders. The folder "groups" is stored in /data/vmail/domain.com/. So, if i type "tree -a -L 1 /data/vmail/domain.com/groups" I get the following outpout: /data/vmail/domain.com/groups/ ??? .Archive ??? .Archive.subfolder1 ??? .Archive.subfolder2 ??? .Archive.subfolder2.subfolder3 ??? .Archive.subfolder2.subfolder4 (....) ??? .projects ??? .projects.subfolder1 ??? .projects.subfolder2 ??? .projects.subfolder2.subfolder3 ??? .projects.subfolder2.subfolder4 (...) In this groups-folder are at the moment more than 3400 folders! Now to the permissions: When the folders "Archive", "projects" and so on had been created every folder got a dovecot-acl for the permission for each user, e.g.: user=user1 kxeilprwts user=user2 kxeilprwts This worked finde, as the dovecot-acl got copied from the parent folder when the employees created new subfolders. Now to my problem I'm facing right now: This client got 2 new employees. So how can I edit all these dovecot-acl files in all subfolders where these 2 new employess schould get access to? Thank you in advance! Yours sincerely, Lukas Henrich Furthermore here is the output of dovecot -n: # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 4.4.6-1-pve x86_64 Debian 8.4 auth_username_format = %Ln disable_plaintext_auth = no lda_mailbox_autocreate = yes mail_home = /data/vmail/domain.com/%Ln mail_location = maildir:~ mail_plugins = " acl" managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave namespace { hidden = no ignore_on_failure = no inbox = no list = children location = maildir:/data/vmail/domain.com/%%n:INDEXPVT=/data/vmail/domain.com/%n/share… prefix = shared/%%n/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = shared } namespace { hidden = no ignore_on_failure = no inbox = no list = yes location = maildir:/data/vmail/domain.com/groups:INDEXPVT=/data/vmail/domain.com/%n/gr… prefix = groups/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = public } namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Archiv { special_use = \Archive } mailbox Archive { auto = subscribe special_use = \Archive } mailbox Archives { special_use = \Archive } mailbox "Deleted Messages" { special_use = \Trash } mailbox Drafts { auto = subscribe special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Entwürfe { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox "Gelöschte Elemente" { special_use = \Trash } mailbox "Gelöschte Objekte" { special_use = \Trash } mailbox Gesendet { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Gesendete Elemente" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Gesendete Objekte" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Junk { auto = subscribe special_use = \Junk } mailbox Papierkorb { special_use = \Trash } mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Spam { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Trash { auto = subscribe special_use = \Trash } prefix = INBOX/ separator = / subscriptions = yes } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext driver = ldap } passdb { args = scheme=CRYPT username_format=%Ln /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } plugin { acl = vfile acl_shared_dict = file:/var/lib/dovecot/db/shared-mailboxes.db sieve = ~/dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } postmaster_address = admin(a)domain.com protocols = " imap lmtp sieve sieve" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0666 } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = vmail user = vmail } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { address = 127.0.0.1 port = 24 } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/lmtp-dovecot { group = postfix user = postfix } } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/kmux-dovecot.intern.domain.com.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/kmux-dovecot.intern.domain.com.key userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext default_fields = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/data/vmail/domain.com/%n driver = ldap } userdb { args = username_format=%Ln /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " acl sieve" } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " acl sieve" } protocol imap { mail_plugins = " acl imap_acl" }

fix SIS attachment errors
by Webert de Souza Lima 13 Oct '16

13 Oct '16

Hi, I've sent some e-mails about this before but since there was no answers I'll write it differently, with different information. I'm using SIS (Single Instance Attachment Storage). For any reason that is not relevant now, many attachments are missing and the messages can't be fetched: Error: read(attachments-connector(zlib(/dovecot/mdbox/bar.example/foo/storage/m.1))) failed: read(/dovecot/attach/bar.example/23/ae/23aed008c1f32f048afd38d9aae68c5aeae2d17a9170e28c60c75a02ec199ef4e7079cd92988ad857bd6e12cd24cdd7619bd29f26edeec842a6911bb14a86944-fb0b6a214dfa63573c1f00009331bd36[base64:19 b/l]) failed: open(/dovecot/attach/bar.example/23/ae/23aed008c1f32f048afd38d9aae68c5aeae2d17a9170e28c60c75a02ec199ef4e7079cd92988ad857bd6e12cd24cdd7619bd29f26edeec842a6911bb14a86944-fb0b6a214dfa63573c1f00009331bd36) failed: No such file or directory in this specific case, the /dovecot/attach/bar.example/23/ae/ director doesn't exist.

First steps in Dovecot; IMAP not working
by Marnaud 13 Oct '16

13 Oct '16

Hello, I'm new in Dovecot and am having troubles making it working. I'm trying using Outlook and Apple's Mail as the mail clients. Outlook says it can't establish a secured connection to the server (for the IMAP protocol). I'm guessing sending e-mails works but I can't check. This is my current configuration (using dovecot -n): # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-042stab116.1 x86_64 Debian 8.6 mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { driver = pam } passdb { driver = pam } protocols = " imap" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } } service imap-login { inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } } ssl = no ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/mail.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/mail.key userdb { driver = passwd } userdb { driver = passwd } I find abnormal I'm seeing "ssl = no" in this configuration despite the fact that I have "ssl = required" in the /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf file, but I'm new to this... I have looked around the web; finally, I'm asking here, hoping it's the correct place to ask. Arnaud

I run dovecot + postfix as my email server. Everything is working as expected, but I see an error in the dovecot logs: lmtp(7331): Error: SSL context initialization failed, disabling SSL: ENGINE_init(dynamic) failed Dovecot is running and emails are OK. I wonder why this error and how I can fix it? I see it is a SSL issue but no idea in which direction to look. Thank you for help

Strange subscriptions added by dsync backup
by Rik Theys 13 Oct '16

13 Oct '16

Hi, We're in the process of migrating our dovecot 1.x mail server to a Dovecot 2.2.25 server. During the migration I'm moving from mbox storage to mdbox. I use the following method to do a one-way sync from our current mail server to our new mail server (command executed on the new server): doveadm -v -o imapc_host=oldserver \ -o imapc_user=$u \ -o imapc_master_user=$masteruser \ -o imapc_password="$masterpass" \ -o imapc_port=993 -o imapc_ssl=imaps \ -o ssl_client_ca_file=/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt \ -o imapc_ssl_verify=yes \ -o mail_fsync=never \ -o mail_prefetch_count=20 \ backup -R -u $u imapc: $u is replaced by the username I'm migrating. The dsync command runs and exits with code 0 (all OK). However, when I look at the subscriptions file on the new server, there seem to be additional subscriptions that are not in the subscriptions file on the old server: 7b0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca 7c0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca 7d0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca 7e0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca 7f0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca 800d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca Where do these come from? Is something wrong with the migration? It also seems that subscriptions for IMAP folders that only contain subfolders[1] are no longer present in the new subscriptions file: # diff -u sub-old.sorted sub-new.sorted --- sub-old.sorted 2016-10-11 13:42:44.175070610 +0200 +++ sub-new.sorted 2016-10-11 13:47:53.973888462 +0200 @@ -1,26 +1,26 @@ -Archive/Administration/ +7b0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca +7c0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca +7d0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca +7e0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca +7f0d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca +800d681945d0fc5711560000ffff90ca Archive/Administration/Conferences Archive/Announcements -Archive/Education/ Archive/Education/E02N3A Archive/Education/I0D51A Archive/Politics -Archive/Research/ -Archive/Research/FET/ Archive/Research/FET/VPH - Virtual Physiological Human Archive/Research/Grants/ICON IBBT Call 2011 Archive/Research/Grants/Marie Curie ITN 2011 Archive/Research/Grants/Odysseus Archive/Research/Grants/SymBioSysII/Funding Archive/Research/Grants/SymBioSysII/JobApplications -Archive/Research/Manuscripts/ Archive/Research/Manuscripts/ruby-ensembl-api Archive/Research/Projects/GUNZ Archive/Research/Projects/MIQAS Archive/Research/Projects/MODY Archive/Research/Projects/ruby-ensembl-api Archives -Archive/Service/ Archive/Service/EditorORC Archive/Service/Reviewing Deleted Messages Is this expected behaviour?

Auto-archiving
by ＠lbutlr 13 Oct '16

I’d like to know if there is a way to tell dovecot to 1) move messages older than # days to the Archive folder 2) rebuild the indexes 3) remove any folders that are left with no mail Preferably, I’d like this to be a action I an schedule via crontab or something to fire off for any users that want it. So, I do not want it to do this across all users and mailboxes.
