[Dovecot] beginners sieve: copy not move to subfolder?
by voytek＠sbt.net.au 22 Jan '14

22 Jan '14

I'm trying to learn how do basic stuff with sieve; I pasted this from a tutorial, it works fine, mail is delivered to 'friends' BUT, what should I do to keep mail in main inbasket as well as, copy to subbasket ? tried 'copy' but failed so far main_script: line 6: error: unknown command 'copy' (only reported once at first occurence). even after I added 'copy' to 'require' still failed ? ------------------------------------ require ["fileinto", "reject"]; # Daffy Duck is a good friend of … [View More]

[Dovecot] IDLE dropping EXISTS events on mass message arrival
by Eric Wong 22 Jan '14

22 Jan '14

Hi, I'm not sure if this is some throttling/DoS protection or a bug. I didn't see notice anything like it mentioned looking at the NEWS file from hg, this is on 2.1.7 on Debian stable. I have a client doing IDLE on INBOX.vomiteer. When individual messages arrive with some time interval in between them, I get EXISTS events for each message as expected. However, when I store a bunch of messages at once (via tag + mass copy in mutt on a fast-ish connection), I get a few EXISTS events (… [View More]sometimes one, sometimes two) even though I copied a lot of new messages over. I expected to get an EXISTS event for each message which arrived, but perhaps there's some sort of DoS/throttling mechanism. strace -t -s4096 output of the dovecot process below: fd=13 is inotify, you'll see large read(13, ... indicating multiple filenames from inotify. However, only one EXISTS message got written to the socket. I've filtered out the gettimeofday syscalls for brevity. 07:30:02 epoll_wait(9, {}, 6, 3937) = 0 07:30:06 stat64("/home/ew/.maildir/.INBOX.vomiteer/cur", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=12288, ...}) = 0 07:30:06 stat64("/home/ew/.maildir/.INBOX.vomiteer/new", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 07:30:06 stat64("/home/ew/.maildir/.INBOX.vomiteer/new", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 07:30:06 stat64("/home/ew/.maildir/.INBOX.vomiteer/cur", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=12288, ...}) = 0 07:30:06 stat64("/home/ew/.maildir/.INBOX.vomiteer/dovecot.index.log", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=25920, ...}) = 0 07:30:06 fstat64(10, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=25920, ...}) = 0 07:30:06 epoll_wait(9, {}, 6, 7865) = 0 07:30:14 setsockopt(11, SOL_TCP, TCP_CORK, [1], 4) = 0 07:30:14 write(11, "* OK Still here\r\n", 17) = 17 07:30:14 setsockopt(11, SOL_TCP, TCP_CORK, [0], 4) = 0 07:30:14 time(NULL) = 1390289414 07:30:14 epoll_wait(9, {{EPOLLIN, {u32=4159555408, u64=4159555408}}}, 6, 22124) = 1 07:30:17 read(13, "\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\t\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94623P14841.dcvr,S=1580,W=1619:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\n\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94624P14841.dcvr,S=1580,W=1619:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\v\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94625P14841.dcvr,S=1422,W=1460:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\f\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94626P14841.dcvr,S=1422,W=1460:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\r\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94627P14841.dcvr,S=1861,W=1907:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\16\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94628P14841.dcvr,S=1861,W=1907:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\17\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94629P14841.dcvr,S=4732,W=4854:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\20\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94630P14841.dcvr,S=4732,W=4854:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\21\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94631P14841.dcvr,S=4028,W=4128:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\22\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94632P14841.dcvr,S=4028,W=4128:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\23\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94633P14841.dcvr,S=3865,W=3968:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\24\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94634P14841.dcvr,S=3865,W=3968:2,S\0\0", 32768) = 768 07:30:17 epoll_wait(9, {{EPOLLIN, {u32=4159555408, u64=4159555408}}}, 6, 499) = 1 07:30:17 read(13, "\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\25\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94635P14841.dcvr,S=4092,W=4189:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\26\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94636P14841.dcvr,S=4092,W=4189:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\27\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94637P14841.dcvr,S=1517,W=1552:2,S\0\0\2\0\0\0\200\0\0\0\30\365\r\0000\0\0\0001390289417.M94638P14841.dcvr,S=1517,W=1552:2,S\0\0", 32768) = 256 07:30:17 epoll_wait(9, {}, 6, 498) = 0 07:30:17 stat64("/home/ew/.maildir/.INBOX.vomiteer/new", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 07:30:17 stat64("/home/ew/.maildir/.INBOX.vomiteer/cur", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=12288, ...}) = 0 07:30:17 stat64("/home/ew/.maildir/.INBOX.vomiteer/dovecot.index.log", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=26328, ...}) = 0 07:30:17 fstat64(10, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=26328, ...}) = 0 07:30:17 pread64(10, "\200\200\200\207@\0\0\20\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0$\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\200\200\200\214\0\1\0\20\0\0$\0\337!\336R\344\231\2L\0\0\0\0\t\"\336R\t\"\336R\0\0\0\0\t\"\336R\0\0\0\0007\n\0\0\200\200\200\204 \0\0\20@\0\4\0\234e\0\0\200\200\200\242\2\0\0\20\317\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\320\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\321\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\322\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\323\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\324\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\325\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\326\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\327\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\330\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\331\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\332\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\333\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\334\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\335\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\336\0\0\0\10\0\0\0\200\200\200\207@\0\0\20\1\0\0\0\0\260\2L\0\0\0\0\4\0\4\0\1\0\0\0\200\200\200\242\0\2\0\20\317\0\0\0\250\275\0\0\320\0\0\0\234\277\0\0\321\0\0\0|\301\0\0\322\0\0\0|\304\0\0\323\0\0\0\200\307\0\0\324\0\0\0|\312\0\0\325\0\0\0h\315\0\0\326\0\0\0\\\320\0\0\327\0\0\0\224\323\0\0\330\0\0\0\210\325\0\0\331\0\0\0h\327\0\0\332\0\0\0h\332\0\0\333\0\0\0l\335\0\0\334\0\0\0h\340\0\0\335\0\0\0T\343\0\0\336\0\0\0H\346\0\0\200\200\200\204 \0\0\0200\0\4\0\337\0\0\0", 8192, 25920) = 408 07:30:17 pread64(10, "", 8192, 26328) = 0 07:30:17 stat64("/home/ew/.maildir/.INBOX.vomiteer/dovecot.index.log", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=26328, ...}) = 0 07:30:17 fstat64(10, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=26328, ...}) = 0 07:30:17 time(NULL) = 1390289417 07:30:17 setsockopt(11, SOL_TCP, TCP_CORK, [1], 4) = 0 07:30:17 write(11, "* 32 EXISTS\r\n", 13) = 13 07:30:17 setsockopt(11, SOL_TCP, TCP_CORK, [0], 4) = 0 07:30:17 epoll_wait(9, <unfinished ...> (Nothing happened after this) #

[Dovecot] master password

This is probably easy but how would a set a secret static master password so that if I typed it in for any login it would be happy? I can't use the * separator method in this case because it screws up squirrelmail.

I ran into a problem while configuring dovecot. Quickly reading the paragraph below, I saw "yes" as one of the options, and put that into the config, as below: # In case of password mismatches, log the attempted password. Valid values are # no, plain and sha1. sha1 can be useful for detecting brute force password # attempts vs. user simply trying the same password over and over again. # You can also truncate the value to n chars by appending ":n" (e.g. sha1:6). auth_verbose_passwords = … [View More]

[Dovecot] forwarded message is broken in 2.2.10 with pigeonhole-0.4.2

Hi, forwarding a message with sieve like redirect:copy "me(a)other.domain"; was working without any problem until dovecot-2.1.17, dovecots lmtp and dovecot-2.1-pigeonhole-0.3.5. Using dovecot-2.2.10 , dovecots lmtp and dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.2 the structure of a forwarded message is broken. Content of a message is not displayed or an attachment (for instance pdf) can not be opened by (different) clients. Writing a html mail or plain one makes no different. I have compared two … [View More]messages and the main different is a missing Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="...." to encapsulate the body of the forwarded message.

[Dovecot] Dovecot doesn't seem to report all subfolders to Thunderbird
by dovecot＠voidptr.de 21 Jan '14

21 Jan '14

Hi, I've recently migrated my emails from a Yahoo account to my own mailserver on a VPS. Ever since then, Thunderbird seems to have issues with the mailbox's directory structure: When I start Thunderbird, it immediately deletes the local copies of all 3rd-level folders (i.e. subfolders of a subfolder of a folder in the mailbox root). Since that didn't happen with the Yahoo account, I assume it's some kind of error or misconfiguration of Dovecot. Here's an example of the mailbox structure: … [View More]

[Dovecot] A variable for the unix user or home path would be useful in some cases
by interfaSys sàrl 20 Jan '14

20 Jan '14

Hello, In our hosting environment, we let users share mailboxes across all their domains and think it's best if the shared mailbox listing (in a file) stays in their unix home path. That would be: /home/USER/imap/shared-mailboxes.db Unfortunately, it seems there is no way to generate that path using a variable. Something like this would be convenient: acl_shared_dict = file:%v/imap/shared-mailboxes.db Instead, we have to use something like this: acl_shared_dict = file:~/../../../shared-… [View More]
