auth: Error: auth worker: Aborted request: Lookup timed out
by ML mail 01 Feb '15

01 Feb '15

Hello, I was checking the errors on my mailbox server using "doveadm log errors" and found that around 2-3 times a day I get the following error: Jan 29 22:14:43 auth: Error: auth worker: Aborted request: Lookup timed out Any ideas if this is a bad sign? For example some timeout on my side which is too low or is it just an aborted connection from the side of the IMAP client? The configuration on my Dovecot mailbox server can be found here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.imap.dovecot/80823 It is a Debian 7 box with standard debian packages. Best regards ML

[Bug ?] IMAP keywords are not preserved during mailbox conversion
by Alexander Moisseev 01 Feb '15

01 Feb '15

IMAP keywords (Thunderbird Tags) are not preserved during Maildir to mdbox conversion. For mailbox conversion I am using the command: # doveadm -o mail_location=maildir:~/Maildir sync -u user(a)example.com mdbox:~/mdbox After conversion all Thunderbird Tags are lost. Is it a bug or expected behavior? -- Alexander

LDAP Quota Limits & Warnings
by Leander Schäfer 30 Jan '15

30 Jan '15

I found this on the dovecot wiki: The following limit names are supported: * *storage*: Quota limit in kilobytes, 0 means unlimited. * *bytes*: Quota limit in bytes, 0 means unlimited. * *messages*: Quota limit in number of messages, 0 means unlimited. This probably isn't very useful. * *backend*: Quota backend-specific limit configuration. * *ignore*: Don't include the specified mailbox in quota at all. As I understood it, all 5 limit categories are valid to use with maildir format while only "storage" and "messages" are valid to use with dmbox format, right? Also the "ignore" limit may appear more than one time for a user - like Trash:ignore and Spam:ignore, right? So I assumed following should work - and it does - except for "ignore" - even though LDAP does not hold multiple values for it - only a single one for each limit: user_attrs = [...] mailQuotaStorage=quota_rule=*:storage=%$, mailQuotaMessages=quota_rule2=*:messages=%$, mailQuotaIgnore=quota_rule3=*:ignore=%$ pass_attrs = [...] mailQuotaStorage=userdb_quota_rule=*:storage=%$, mailQuotaMessages=userdb_quota_rule2=*:messages=%$, mailQuotaIgnore=userdb_quota_rule3=*:ignore=%$ And unfortunately /var/log/maillog tells me: dovecot: imap(abuse(a)netocean.local): Error: user abuse(a)netocean.local: Initialization failed: Failed to initialize quota: Invalid quota root quota: Invalid rule *:ignore=Trash: Unknown rule limit name: ignore Yet /var/log/debug.log sounds a bit more promising ... but then again not really ... dovecot: imap: Debug: Added userdb setting: mail=maildir:/usr/local/www/default/mail/user@mydomain.tld dovecot: imap: Debug: Added userdb setting: plugin/quota_rule=*:storage=1048576 dovecot: imap: Debug: Added userdb setting: plugin/quota_rule2=*:messages=10 dovecot: imap: Debug: Added userdb setting: plugin/quota_rule3=*:ignore=Trash dovecot: imap(abuse(a)netocean.local): Debug: Effective uid=2110, gid=2110, home=/var/vmail/user(a)mydomain.tld/mail dovecot: imap(abuse(a)netocean.local): Debug: Quota root: name=User quota backend=maildir args= dovecot: imap(abuse(a)netocean.local): Debug: Quota rule: root=User quota mailbox=* bytes=1073741824 messages=0 dovecot: imap(abuse(a)netocean.local): Debug: Quota rule: root=User quota mailbox=* bytes=1073741824 messages=10 dovecot: imap(abuse(a)netocean.local): Debug: Quota rule: root=User quota mailbox=* bytes=1073741824 messages=10 Additionally, if one of the two working quotas (storage & messages) is exceeded than Dovecot sends out a warning from this setting: plugin { quota_warning = storage=90%% quota-warning 90 %u quota_warning2 = storage=75%% quota-warning 75 %u # What message to send to IMAP clients (and SMTP senders) when quota is exceeded? quota_exceeded_message = Quota exceeded, please go to http://MyDomain.TLD for instructions on how to fix this. } No my question is how to provide two different warnings. One for storage like: Sorry, you're mail storage is full. Please delete some. And a second for messages like: Sorry, you've too many messages. Please delete some. Thanks & Best Regards Leander

Re: Uniqueness of dovecot mailbox-guids

If mailbox guids should be unique systemwide, would it be safe to delete all 'dovecot-uidlist' files of the user's mailboxes and then do a doveadm force-resync after mailbox migration? Thanks!

Update: seems to me that the old cyrus mailserver already uses these non-unique mailbox guids. Is it necessary to have them unique over all private namespaces?

Re: mdbox: Broken virtual size for mail UID ...

Is that correct? To create proper assessment of the damage, I need to know a bit more: 1. In the script on line 43, the comment says: # end of metadata block missing, finish the previous mail That seems to be wrong, since idx2!=-1 and state==STATE_BODY on that line, while I understand it should be -1 and STATE_META if we were still reading the metadata block. I guess it should be something like: # still in data block, finish the previous mail 2. Line 47 reads: # truncated / broken data? just keep writing to previous file That is the only error which could be detected in that script, right? 3. A message could also be corrupted by loosing its complete data block from \001\003 to \001\002, which cannot be detected in the script, right? 4. The only case to detect this and find other unexpected oddities would be to compare each msg.* in size and offset with the messages referenced in the dovecot.map.index file, correct? How do I do that, if the dovecot.map.index does not contain the GUID of the message? Do I need to fuzzy match the file_id, offset and size with my current values, or is there a more reliable way to do this? 5. Metadata refers to the RFC822 mail headers? Or are they also included in the body, and the mentioned metadata is dovecot-only metadata? If the latter, do they also contain the size of the body and similar information? Best regards, Dennis
