Troubleshooting mailbox problems
by Nick Bright 11 Mar '16

11 Mar '16

Greetings, I'm running Dovecot 2.0.9 on my CentOS 6 server, for several thousand mailboxes. Recently, I've had several reports of "my mailbox is suddenly empty, where'd my mail go?" I've enabled debug logging, but I'd like to make sure I have the best level of debug to see things like "delete message" commands? I've configured in logging: auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = no mail_debug = yes plugin { mail_log_events = delete undelete expunge copy mailbox_delete mailbox_rename mail_log_group_events = yes mail_log_fields = uid box msgid size } Does this look like a good start? I really think it's a client side problem, but sometimes end users always want to blame the server; and proof must be shown e.g. "Look, here's the log, you're sending delete commands." At which point, we can proceed with dealing with their software problem.

Setting up public mailboxes - user not found
by Marti Markov 10 Mar '16

10 Mar '16

Hi all, This is the first time I use the dovecot mail list so I’m sorry if I forget something. My problem is that for some reason I can get public mailboxes to work. I have setup the directory Public, the folders and the cur,tmp and new folder in them: Public | |- .office3 | |- cur |- tmp |- new |- dovecot-acl Here is my dovecot conf: # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.14.32-xxxx-grs-ipv6-64 x86_64 auth_default_realm = xxx.com auth_mechanisms = plain login mail_gid = vmail mail_home = /home/vmail/%d/%n mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_plugins = acl mail_uid = vmail 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 { list = yes location = maildir:/home/vmail/xxx.com/Public:INDEXPVT=~/Maildir/Public prefix = Public/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = public } 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 = separator = / type = private } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext driver = ldap } plugin { acl = vfile sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_before = /etc/dovecot/sieve/dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } postmaster_address = postmaster(a)xxx.com protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service auth { unix_listener auth-client { group = Debian-exim mode = 0660 user = Debian-exim } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } } service lmtp { unix_listener lmtp { mode = 0666 } } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/xxx.com.pem ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/private/xxx.private.pem ssl_key_password = yyyyyyy userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext driver = ldap } verbose_ssl = yes protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = acl sieve } protocol imap { mail_plugins = acl imap_acl } The error I’m getting is that LMTP can’t deliver to office3(a)xxx.com because the user could not be found. (I’m using LDAP authentication for the users) Mar 9 19:50:43 mail spamd[21021]: spamd: connection from localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]:56531 to port 783, fd 5 Mar 9 19:50:43 mail spamd[21021]: spamd: setuid to Debian-exim succeeded Mar 9 19:50:43 mail spamd[21021]: spamd: checking message <FBFE5FE1-A3C3-4C3D-8BD9-1C2AAC90BE17(a)xxx.com> for Debian-exim:107 Mar 9 19:50:44 mail spamd[21021]: spamd: clean message (-1.1/5.0) for Debian-exim:107 in 0.5 seconds, 1611 bytes.

I’m not sure but should Dovecot skip this and check the Public folder first before checking LDAP? Another part of my setup is Exim4. Here is the transport part: dovecot_lmtp: driver = lmtp socket = /var/run/dovecot/lmtp return_path_add #maximum number of deliveries per batch, default 1 batch_max = 200 And here is the auth part: dovecot_login: driver = dovecot public_name = LOGIN server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client # setting server_set_id might break several headers in mails sent by authenticated smtp. So be careful. server_set_id = $auth1 .ifndef AUTH_SERVER_ALLOW_NOTLS_PASSWORDS server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_in_cipher}{}{}{*}} .endif dovecot_plain: driver = dovecot public_name = PLAIN server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client server_set_id = $auth1 .ifndef AUTH_SERVER_ALLOW_NOTLS_PASSWORDS server_advertise_condition = ${if eq{$tls_in_cipher}{}{}{*}} .endif So any tips on how to fix this would be great.

zlib plugin doesn't add "Z" flag to Maildir filename
by Tom Sommer 10 Mar '16

10 Mar '16

I enabled zlib compression, so new mails are saved compressed. Now I want to convert the old mails to gzip with the find and gzip command, but now I don't know which files are already gzip compressed by dovecot. Shouldn't zlib_save itself add Z to the Maildir flags? As suggested in the compress guide on http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Zlib ? -- Tom

v2.2.22 release candidate released
by Timo Sirainen 10 Mar '16

10 Mar '16

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2.22.rc1.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2.22.rc1.tar.gz.sig There are some larger changes here, especially to doveadm to make it support HTTP API. There's still time to do smaller tweaks to the API, so let us know if you have some improvement ideas. Note that the API was designed to look mostly like JMAP, which we're planning to implement also for v2.3. The plan is to fork v2.3 development tree soon. + Added doveadm HTTP API: See http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Design/DoveadmProtocol/HTTP + virtual plugin: Mailbox filtering can now be done based on the mailbox metadata. See http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual + stats: Added doveadm stats reset to reset global stats. + stats: Added authentication statistics if auth_stats=yes. + dsync, imapc, pop3c & pop3-migration: Many optimizations, improvements and error handling fixes. + doveadm: Most commands now stop soon after SIGINT/SIGTERM. - auth: Auth caching was done too aggressively when %variables were used in default_fields, override_fields or LDAP pass/user_attrs. userdb result_* were also ignored when user was found from cache. - imap: Fixed various assert-crashes caused v2.2.20+. Some of them caught actual hangs or otherwise unwanted behavior towards IMAP clients. - Expunges were forgotten in some situations, for example when pipelining multiple IMAP MOVE commands. - quota: Per-namespaces quota were broken for dict and count backends in v2.2.20+ - fts-solr: Search queries were using OR instead of AND as the separator for multi-token search queries in v2.2.20+.

Hi All I have had a Dovecot-1.x Server running without issue for about 5 years now. I decided to set up a new Server and configure version 2 from scratch. I am having a little issue though.

Using dsync to synchronize laptop against remote server
by Dato Simó 10 Mar '16

10 Mar '16

Hello! I’m thinking of changing the way I sync mail to my laptop, and I have a couple questions about my intended setup. In brief, my plan is: instead of running offlineimap against various IMAP accounts (my personal one included), I will run fetchmail on my private server, and classify mail with Sieve there. Then I’ll run a local Dovecot on my laptop, and do a master/master replication from my personal server/account with dsync. I have two quick questions about this (I have never used dsync before): 1. Reading the manual page, it seems that I probably want stateful synchronization (-s flag). Not having used it before, I’m curious about what lag I can expect. Does it compare to an IMAP IDLE/IMAP NOTIFY connection? Or is it asynchronous / with a timer? 2. I assume modifying my local Maildirs with e.g. Mutt is... a big no-no? Instead, should I always force Mutt to go through the local IMAP server? Many thanks in advance, -d

Re: Dovecot stops responding when I update SSL certificate
by HotSlots Webmaster 10 Mar '16

10 Mar '16

Time to put an end to this saga... I had an issue that Dovecot refused to serve an updated SSL certificate - one that Postfix had no issue with. Though I quadruple-checked that the cert file and private key file were correct, in the end I simply directed both cert and key files to the file I was using for Postfix (which had both the cert and private key). That worked. Darned if I know what it didn't like about the other files, but I'm back in business with the new cert. Thanks for the responsiveness from Aki. Steve L

Replication not working
by Simon Pierre Desrosiers 10 Mar '16

10 Mar '16

Hello, I am trying to setup replication between two Mac OS X El Capitan Server. I have added the field as I could understand from the replication page of dovecot and from a few poste in the mailing list. The mac uses the system user _dovecot as main system account. I have setup ssh keys between the two systems for the two _dovecot servers. SSh works fine from the terminal. But yet, I get these messages in the log file : Mar 09 20:18:44 auth: Error: od[getpwnam_ext](submit): No record for user Mar 09 20:18:44 doveadm: Error: Host key verification failed. Mar 09 20:18:44 dsync-local(submit): Error: read(_dovecot(a)laposte.mycompagny.com) failed: EOF Mar 09 20:18:44 dsync-local(submit): Error: Remote command returned error 255 Mar 09 20:23:44 auth: Error: od[getpwnam_ext](submit): No record for user Mar 09 20:23:44 doveadm: Error: Host key verification failed. Mar 09 20:23:44 dsync-local(submit): Error: read(_dovecot(a)laposte.mycompagny.com) failed: EOF Mar 09 20:23:44 dsync-local(submit): Error: Remote command returned error 255 and so on every few minutes. I have a few things about which I am not sure. We configure port 12345, but nothing listen on that port. The doveadm_password, what is it exactly ? Should I use a distinct account than _dovecot for synchronisation (all the fields that need to be added for replication) ? Here is my configuration, any help would be appreciated : # 2.2.5: /Library/Server/Mail/Config/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Darwin 15.3.0 x86_64 hfs auth_mechanisms = cram-md5 digest-md5 gssapi
