Unsubscribe from shared mailbox
by Miloslav Hůla 03 Sep '15

03 Sep '15

Hi, I'm using Dovecot 2.2.13-11 (Debian Jessie) and shared namespace (to be old Cyrus compatible setting): namespace { list = children location = maildir:/vmail/user/%%n/Maildir:INDEXPVT=/vmail/user/%n/Maildir/Shared/%%n prefix = user.%%n. separator = . subscriptions = yes type = shared } My account: milo Other account: peter After subscription, I have: /vmail/user/milo/Maildir/Shared/peter/.INBOX/dovecot.index.pvt.log After unsubscribe, file and folder still exists. Where Dovecot stores the information, that I had unsubscribed from this folder? I need this to analyze subscriptions over all mail acounts. Thank you, Miloslav

more than two way replication
by djk 02 Sep '15

02 Sep '15

Is there anyway of replicating between more than one other instance of Dovecot. I have bidirectional replication working successfully and it seems to be reliable. I would like to replicate from one or more of these instances to one other. Is this possible? Dirk

imap segfaults when using antispam plugin, and moving mail to an 'unsure' folder.
by Andrew McN 02 Sep '15

02 Sep '15

I put up a question on serverfault first, which has the details, including a stack trace: http://serverfault.com/questions/713687/dovecot-antispam-error-storing-mail . Details also copied below. Is this a known bug? If I built dovecot from source rather than using the Ubuntu 14.04 packages, would I expect that to help? Are there any configuration details that might be relevant? (dovecot -n output shown Any help much appreciated. Andrew McNaughton Details on the serverfault page repeated below, plus a little more. ----------------------------------------------------- Ubuntu 14.04.3 x86_64 Running inside lxc-docker 1.7.0 dovecot-imapd 1:2.2.9-1ubuntu2 dovecot-antispam 2.0+20130822-2build1 Filesystem is via docker, so aufs is involved, and under that on the host systems is ext4 ----------------------------------------------------- I know mail is not supposed to be moved into a mailbox of type 'unsure'. The server should refuse this action.

doveadm-server hangs with 100% cpu usage
by Dennis Kuhn 02 Sep '15

02 Sep '15

we have some replication issues. From time to time a doveadm-server process takes 100% cpu in the state recv_mailbox_tree_deletes on the replica. The process runs forever until it is manually killed. Strace on this process doesn't show anything. Sometimes we have several doveadm-server processes in this state, all for the same account, all with 100% CPU Load. The logfile on the master says: Error: Timeout during state=recv_mailbox_tree Error: dsync(dobby5.heinlein-support.de): I/O has stalled, no activity for 600 seconds My workaround is to delete the user directory on the replica so that the whole account is replicated again. This solves the problem for this specific account. The dovecot version is 2.2.15 on the master and 2.2.16 on the replica.

Moving mails from shared folder to shared folder doesn't work
by Peer Heinlein 02 Sep '15

02 Sep '15

Hi, having the attached configuration with Dovecot 2.2.9, Dovecot's crashing when moving a mail from a shared folder into another shared folder. Moving that mail into a "real" folder of the user or moving that mail from a real folder into the shared folder is always working. But moving from a shared folder into a shared folder doesn't work.

Single Instance Storage after the fact
by Joe Beaubien 02 Sep '15

Hi everyone, I tried to find info about this online, but I couldn't find anything talking specifically about what I am trying to accomplish. I am sending and receiving the same attachments pretty often and as a result my email accounts are growing much more rapidly than I would like. *My goal* is to set up a second instance of Dovecot with SIS enabled and transfer everything over to this new Dovecot setup. I was thinking of simply running a dsync backup from the old instance and then a dsync backup -R on the new instance with SIS. Would this effectively create a new set of mailboxes without attachments (and a new folder full of attachments)? If not, can someone point me to information on how to accomplish this? Best regards, Joe B.

Hello list members I want dovecot managesieve to store its config unter ~/.dovecot.sieve additionally dovecot should read as sieve_after the file ~/.sieve It's working fine BUT dovecot managesieve is always symlinking the sieve file at activation to ~/.sieve and not to ~/.dovecot.sieve as i configured it. Any idears about this strange behaviour? dovecot is configured as follows # 2.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.13.0-53-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS auth_mechanisms = plain login dict { acl = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext expire = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-expire.conf.ext } disable_plaintext_auth = no lda_mailbox_autocreate = yes lda_mailbox_autosubscribe = yes listen = *,[::] log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_plugins = " expire quota acl" mail_privileged_group = vmail maildir_very_dirty_syncs = yes 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 { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / type = private } namespace { list = children location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEXPVT=~/Maildir/shared/%%u prefix = shared/%%u/ separator = / subscriptions = yes type = shared } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } plugin { acl = vfile acl_shared_dict = proxy::acl expire = Trash expire2 = Trash/* expire3 = Spam expire4 = Junk expire_dict = proxy::expire quota = dict:user::file:/var/vmail/%d/%n/.quotausage sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_after = ~/.sieve } postmaster_address = admin(a)domain.tld protocols = imap lmtp sieve service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = vmail mode = 0600 user = vmail } user = root } service dict { unix_listener dict { group = vmail mode = 0660 user = vmail } } service imap-login { client_limit = 1000 process_limit = 500 } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { address = 127.0.0.1 port = 24 } } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/own_certs/certs/stern.domain.tld.chain.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/own_certs/private/stern.domain.tld.key ssl_protocols = !SSLv2 !SSLv3 userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } protocol imap { mail_max_userip_connections = 100 mail_plugins = quota imap_quota expire acl imap_acl } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = quota pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } protocol lda { mail_plugins = sieve quota } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = sieve quota }

Post-migration questions

I just migrated from courier-imap to dovecot and dovecot is a lot faster. My only client is webmail on the same server as dovecot. Max ~10 users. Should I still run imapproxy like I did with courier? Does dovecot periodically empty the trash folder like courier does? I reduced the number of processes courier was running to save RAM and improve performance. Are there any performance tweaks I should consider for dovecot? - Grant
