SIS deduplication fails to create intermediate directories and funny permissions
by Jesus Cea 01 Apr '16

01 Apr '16

I have configured my system to use SIS, sharing the same same storage for all users, and offline deduplication. I have this in my "root" cron: """ 53 1 * * * /usr/local/bin/doveadm purge -A 16 * * * * /usr/local/bin/doveadm sis deduplicate /home/dovecot/buzones/attachments /home/dovecot/buzones/attachments/queue """ Yes, it is launched as "root" but I would expect doveadm drop privileges as soon as possible. This is working great, but from time to time I get this error message: """ Your "cron" job on babylon5 /usr/local/bin/doveadm sis deduplicate /home/dovecot/buzones/attachments /home/dovecot/buzones/attachments/queue produced the following output: Error: mkdir(/home/dovecot/buzones/attachments/dc/62/hashes) failed: No such file or directory """ Looks like doveadm is trying to create the "hashes" directory but the parent "62" doesn't exits yet. If I create that directory by hand and set permissions correctly, everything (seems to) work. Talking about this, I see something strange wit the permissions. All files and directories in SIS are created with "dovemail" user and group EXCEPT the "hashes" directory inside the newly created directory. That is: When I get the error message, I have this: """ drwx------ 7 dovemail dovemail 7 Apr 1 13:28 . drwx------ 237 dovemail dovemail 237 Mar 24 20:09 .. drwx------ 3 dovemail dovemail 3 Feb 29 02:30 1d drwx------ 3 dovemail dovemail 3 Mar 9 01:53 7f drwx------ 3 dovemail dovemail 3 Feb 29 02:30 88 drwx------ 3 dovemail dovemail 3 Feb 29 02:30 8d """ I create the missing directory by hand and change permissions. Now I have: """ drwx------ 7 dovemail dovemail 7 Apr 1 13:28 . drwx------ 237 dovemail dovemail 237 Mar 24 20:09 .. drwx------ 3 dovemail dovemail 3 Feb 29 02:30 1d drwx------ 3 dovemail dovemail 3 Apr 1 13:30 62 drwx------ 3 dovemail dovemail 3 Mar 9 01:53 7f drwx------ 3 dovemail dovemail 3 Feb 29 02:30 88 drwx------ 3 dovemail dovemail 3 Feb 29 02:30 8d """ I run the deduplicator again (as root) and it creates a "hashes" directory inside the "62" directory... with user/group root/root.

default namespace
by Nerijus Baliunas 01 Apr '16

01 Apr '16

Hello, With no namespace settings and dovecot 2.0.9 I get the following listing: a LIST "" "*" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Trash" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Sent" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX" a OK List completed. Then I add the namespaces: namespace inbox { separator = . prefix = inbox = yes hidden = no list = yes subscriptions = yes } namespace compat { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = no hidden = yes list = no alias_for = } Then list output changes: a LIST "" "*" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Trash" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Sent" * LIST (\HasChildren) "." "INBOX" a OK List completed. INBOX now has \HasChildren, while before it had \HasNoChildren. How can I make it \HasNoChildren? Regards, Nerijus

Multiple IMAP Mailboxes and one collection folder
by Dieter Knopf 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

Hello, we use many IMAP folders and now we are searching for a way to display all mails inside this folders in one collecting folder. The advantage for us would be the possibility to view all new incoming mails in one folder. It would be possible to use the standard MAIL App on the iOS without problems. I could simply make a copy of all mails in one folder with Sieve, but then the Per-user Seen Flag would be useless, because the mail inside the folder is still unread. Is there a way to show some way of collecting folder for every user? Thanks Dieter

Dovecot plugin pthread issue
by qmail＠top-consulting.net 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

I am using FreeBSD 10.1 and Dovecot 2.2.22 with the Openchange plugin - https://github.com/openchange/openchange/tree/master/mapiproxy/services/plu… (https://github.com/openchange/openchange/tree/master/mapiproxy/services/plu…) The plugin compiles just fine and works up until when it tries to create a socket using nanomsg, which uses a pthread_create() call. At that point dovecot-lda just hangs indefinitely. I've read that -pthread must be included in all the components that might end up using it. So checking with ldd: nanomsg does include libthr ( pthread equivalent in FreeBSD ) openchange plugin also includes libthr dovecot-lda doesn't include libthr Would dovecot-lda also need to be compiled with -pthread ? Is it safe ? How can it be done ? Thank you!

Dovecot-LMTP and LDAP: passdb doesn't support credential lookups
by Niols 30 Mar '16

30 Mar '16

Hello, Sorry, this might be a newbish question, but I really can't get the answer by myself. I'm trying to setup a mail server using LDAP to authenticate users, and I keep receiving the errors: passdb doesn't support credential lookups passdb doesn't support lookups, can't verify user's existence when I send test mails to (existing) users. I'm already using the LDAP server for other purposes, and it's working fine. I can't (or I don't want to) give read access to the userPassword attribute, so I want to use a authentication bind: http://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP/AuthBinds I've already managed to have postfix working with this LDAP server, the users (and their aliases) are correctly recognized. Postfix then sends the mails to Dovecot (2.2.13, Debian Jessie's version) with dovecot-lmtp. Here is my /etc/dovecot/conf.d/auth-ldap.conf.ext. I use the static driver for userdb, and the LDAP driver for passdb. passdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext } userdb { driver = static args = uid=mail gid=mail home=/var/mail/%u } Here is my /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext file. hosts = localhost ldap_version = 3 dn = cn=dovecot,ou=services,dc=niols,dc=fr dnpass = a-random-password auth_bind = yes base = ou=people,dc=niols,dc=fr pass_filter = (&(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)(mail=%u)) I haven't set the user_filter and user_attrs values, since I thought these would only be usefull for userdb. I haven't set the pass_attrs value, since I don't see why it would be needed (I just need to be able to bind my user, right?). I can't auth_bind_userdn since the e-mail address aren't necessarily related in any way to the user dn. I assumed %u was going to be replaced by the user's full e-mail address. I tried to play a bit with these values to find a working configuration, without success. I tried to search myself on the LDAP server, using the provided dn and dnpass, and I succeeded. I tried to activate debug logs, but that didn't give me much more information (full debug log at the end of this e-mail). I think the problem is that passdb cannot find the user on the LDAP server, but I don't know why. I believe the problem is lying in my non-comprehension of what userdb and passdb actually do. I tried to find out by myself, and I'm here because I didn't manage to do so. I'm sorry if this post looks stupid. Any help and any comments of any kind would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Niols PS: Here is the full debug log that I get after sending a test message to test(a)niols.net (.net vs. .fr: this is not a mistake, I use my .net domain for testing purposes while I use my .fr domain for eveyday life) with swaks: lmtp(3208): Connect from local auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth auth: Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth/libauthdb_ldap.so auth: Debug: Read auth token secret from /var/run/dovecot/auth-token-secret.dat auth: Debug: LDAP initialization took 0 msecs auth: Debug: master in: USER 1 test(a)niols.net service=lmtp auth: Debug: ldap(test(a)niols.net): passdb doesn't support credential lookups auth: Error: static(test(a)niols.net): passdb doesn't support lookups, can't verify user's existence auth: Debug: userdb out: FAIL 1 lmtp(3208): Error: user test(a)niols.net: Auth USER lookup failed lmtp(3208): Disconnect from local: Successful quit
