doveadm director userdb
by G H 03 Jul '14

03 Jul '14

How do you configure an iterate_query SQL lookup for the doveadm director? I tried: service director { userdb { ... } } but userdb is not a valid stanza for director. I do not have a default userdb stanza, all my userdb definitions are specified in service imap/lda/lmtp blocks. Thanks. G H

Android Sync Doesn't Work Too Good
by Asai 02 Jul '14

02 Jul '14

Greetings, I'm getting reports from a user who's reading and deleting mail on Thunderbird, but read flags and deletions don't show up in his Android phone. He's using the native Android mail app with the newest Android OS. My question is, where do I start with troubleshooting this kind of issue? Thanks for anyone's insight here. We're using Dovecot 2.2.13. -- --Asai

[Dovecot] TLS/SSL for Win8 & Outlook
by Sebastian Goodrick 02 Jul '14

02 Jul '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello I recently upgraded to dovecot 2.1.7 (as supplied with Debian Weezy). All clients work as expected except for Outlook (2013 &2010) on Win8 with a SSL/TLS connection. (Thunderbird on Win8 and Outlook 2013 on Win 7 works fine. On my previous dovecot version 1.2.13 all clients worked.) As far as I understand, one difference is the support for TLS1.2 and SSL3. And on the client side Win8 is now connecting through the Microsoft Unified Security Protocol Provider. My logs show these issues: Dovecot: May 06 21:05:43 imap-login: Warning: SSL: where=0x2002, ret=-1: SSLv3 read client certificate A [78.42.x.x] May 06 21:05:43 imap-login: Warning: SSL: where=0x2002, ret=-1: SSLv3 read client certificate A [78.42.x.x] May 06 21:05:43 imap-login: Warning: SSL failed: where=0x2002: SSLv3 read client certificate A [78.42.x.x] May 06 21:05:43 imap-login: Info: Disconnected (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=78.42.x.x, lip=144.76.x.x, TLS handshaking: Disconnect Outlook 2013 (contains German, translation in []): IMAP: 12:30:02 [db] Mit 'mail.xxx.de' wird eine Verbindung an Port 143 hergestellt.

Since it works with most clients, I assume no broken certificates or my dovecot configuration. The connection fails at the TLS/SSL handshake. Has anyone seen this behaviour, too? Is there a setting (for ssl_protocols and ssl_cipher_list) to support Outlook on Win8?

[Dovecot] lazy_expunge and shared folders
by Florian 02 Jul '14

02 Jul '14

Hi, since migration to Dovecot 2.2 I have troubles with lazy_expunge as soon as a user shares a folder. The user the folder is shared to cannot login anymore, dovecot logs Fatal: lazy_expunge: Unknown namespace: '.EXPUNGED/' - When no folder is shared lazy_expunge is working fine, deleted mails are moved to the expunged namespace and can be recovered without any problems. - Sharing folders works as long as I disable lazy_expunge. I have used the config (with minor changes) with dovecot 2.0 for years without any problem. Switching to dovecot 2.2.10 (atrps repository) or 2.2.12 (dovecot enterprise repo) lazy_expunge and acl do not work together anymore. Is it a bug, a known limitation or is something wrong with my config? Any hints are welcome.

Direct groups of users to pairs of backend mailstores?
by Murray Trainer 02 Jul '14

02 Jul '14

Hi All, We are using Dovecot in a Director setup with two director proxies, six backend mailstores, mailbox storage in NFS, and user accounts stored in LDAP. Currently we have five NFS filesystems on EMC VNX storage which are all mounted on each of the six backend mailstores. At the moment all users could be directed to any of the six mailstores. We have a group of users with very large mailboxes we want to put on separate cheaper Backblaze NFS storage. Because this will be less reliable than our VNX storage we want to be able to direct this group of users to a new pair of backend mailstores that only have the Backblaze NFS mounts. This would isolate the rest of the users isolation from problems with the Backblaze NFS servers. I have read the Dovecot documentation which indicates it is possible to direct users always to a single backend server. Can Dovecot direct users to a pair or more of backend mailstores - ie a subset or another set of mailstores. If not it would be a great enhancement which would allow more scalability, flexibility and redundancy. Thanks Murray
