[Dovecot] dovecot-imapd eating 100% cpu every once in a while
by Nikolaus Rath 13 Dec '13

13 Dec '13

Hello, About once or twice a week, dovecot's imap-login process on my system seems gets out of control, eating 100% CPU for about 2 hours. Afterwards everything seems to go back to normal. I am using Dovecot 2.1.7 on a 64 bit Debian wheezy system. When running gdb on the process in this stage, I get the following traceback: #0 0x00007fcba50c5a90 in read () from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 #1 0x00007fcba4aa01aa in ??

[Dovecot] Locking down master user to certain domains through passwd-file auth
by Andrew Obertas 12 Dec '13

12 Dec '13

Hello, I know it is possible to lock down a master user to only have access to certain domains through SQL login but I was wondering if the same was possible with a passwd-based system. I currently have a master-passwd file residing in the /etc/virtual/domain.com/ directories I want the master user to be able to log in to. Is there a way to tell passdb to only allow the master user login to proceed if they can auth to the master-passwd file in the same folder as the user? Alternatively, is there a better way to go about this? What I assumed would be the easy approach, where the domain from the user's e-mail is fetched, doesn't seem to work as %d fetches the master user's domain and, unless I'm doing something wrong, the login_domain variable cannot be used as this is outside Dovecot-auth. Any assistance with this would be appreciated. -- Best regards, Andrew Obertas Technical Support Representative Infinet Communications Group

[Dovecot] what's wrong with this config file?
by Jim Reid 12 Dec '13

12 Dec '13

Hi. I'm setting up a new IMAPS server. Mail users don't have login access to the box but will each have unique UNIX-style UIDs: no back-end database or LDAP thing. So far. Their mail will get delivered to UNIX-style mailboxes in /var/mail/%u (where %u is the UNIX username obviously). Their IMAP folders will go in /var/imap/%u. These will contain subfolders once everyone migrates to the new set-up and some folders will contain messages and subfolders. I think this is what I configured in dovecot. However when I try to set up a test account, dovecot reports the following error: Dec 12 02:22:00 shaun dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<jim>, method=CRAM-MD5, rip=10.0.0.1, lip=10.1.1.1, mpid=14874, TLS, session=<8Hy1Ak3t+gDDNulD> Dec 12 02:22:00 shaun dovecot: imap(jim): Error: user jim: Initialization failed: namespace configuration error: Duplicate namespace prefix: "" Dec 12 02:22:00 shaun dovecot: imap(jim): Error: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information. I've checked and re-checked the wiki. google was unable to suggest any explanation either. Any ideas what's wrong?

[Dovecot] ot: tracking messages- luser troubleshooting

I had a user complaining of 'not getting emails' I've searched for sender in maillog, got two messages, both showed up as; Dec 12 15:51:29 emu postfix/pipe[9607]: 3F21C5E750: to=<xxx>, relay=dovecot, delay=6.4, delays=6.3/0.01/0/0.12, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered via dovecot service) Dec 12 15:51:29 emu postfix/qmgr[20178]: 3F21C5E750: removed yes the user claimed the message was not received, eventually, after traversing through severl directories, I found the message in '../Maildir/.Deleted Messages' it turns out it was inadvertenltly deleted on iphone. there has to be a better way to try to find / resolve such issues ? what's an optimal way of trying to trace such? I greped for the 3F21C5E750 string through several Maildirs tia,

[Dovecot] Dovecot as caching proxy
by Anton Lundin 12 Dec '13

12 Dec '13

Hi. I'm bin playing around with dovecot to try to setup it as a caching imap proxy. I manged to get dovecot to use both proxy=y and imapc: connections to the master server, but i haven't manged to get dovecot to cache any mails. The remote imap server is a quite hostile one, that i don't have any super/master user access to, and it only exposes imap. I've used tried both with the static passdb, nopassword=y, and imap authdb and with static and prefetch userdbs. I manage to produce the same results, eg. dovecot grabbing the password from the client and uses it to establish a imapc connection to the server and re-exposing it, and starts to write indexes. ( The later plan is probably to use pam as passdb to grab a and store a hashed copy of the password to allow offline access to the cached emails, but thats a later problem to solve.) What i haven't managed to get working is to trigger some replication of the remote emails to dovecot and using that as a cache to serve the emails to the client. I found some presentations and some emails that point in the direction that this should be possible to achieve, probably with the replication plugin, but never managed to get this to work. I'm using dovecot 2.2.9 Does anyone have manged to produce a working setup like this? //Anton -- Anton Lundin +46702-161604
