Hi to all, i have dovecot 2.2.5 and i have implemented lda rejection through quota full this is my dovecot conf protocol lda { mail_fsync = optimized auth_socket_path = /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb deliver_log_format = msgid=<%f>-<%s>-%m: %$ hostname = mail.cgilfe.it info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/dovecot-deliver.log log_path = /var/log/dovecot/dovecot-deliver.log mail_plugin_dir = /usr/local/lib/dovecot mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_log sieve postmaster_address = postmaster(a)mail.cgilfe.it rejection_subject = Rifiutato: %s rejection_reason = Messaggio a <%t> automaticamente rifiutato:%n%r submission_host = 192.16X.XXX.XX0 } If user over quota receive a messagge internally all is ok but if the user receive a mail from external domains nothing to the sender is sentback.

[Dovecot] imap auto create mailbox: we're not in group 8(mail)
by Adrian Zaugg 09 Jan '14

09 Jan '14

Dear List Somehow I don't understand the intended work flow to have new mailboxes auto created. On login of a new user with no mailbox, I get 2014-01-09 12:53:06 imap(tester): Error: user tester: Initialization failed: Namespace '': mkdir(/var/mail/tester) failed: Permission denied (euid=1016(tester) egid=1016(tester) missing +w perm: /var/mail, we're not in group 8(mail), dir owned by 0:8 mode=0771) The imap process runs as the user the login performed and thus it has only the privileges of that user. This is good and desired, when a mailbox already exists. I do not want to allow all users to write to /var/mail, only they should write to their dirs inside /var/mail. Same story for LMTP, if no mailbox exists yet: 2014-01-09 13:01:47 lmtp(20416, tester): Error: user tester: Initialization failed: Namespace '': mkdir(/var/mail/tester) failed: Permission denied (euid=1016(tester) egid=1016(tester) missing +w perm: /var/mail, we're not in group 8(mail), dir owned by 0:8 mode=0771) How can I configure the auto create mailbox feature that it works and let run LMTP and IMAP process as user %u and group mail and let create the mailboxes in /var/mail as (example user tester) with the following permissions: /var/mail: drwxrwx--x root mail 3072 Dec 18 01:43 . drwx------ tester tester 1024 Jan 09 12:53 tester ...or do I need a different approach? Thank you for helping me. Best regards, Adrian.

I tried using logical conjections of header searches and it works with my installation of dovecot, so either it's a bug introduced later than 2.1.16, or perhaps it from the different search engine you use (I use the default that comes with dovecot -- squat?). Sorry, can't help you out further. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[Dovecot] Disallow certain characters in foldernames?
by Charles Marcus 08 Jan '14

08 Jan '14

Is there a way to do this in dovecot? Similar to how you can When using Maildir and Thunderbird, if a user tries to a create folder named "test.1" or "test/1", dovecot will happily create a folder called "test", with a subfolder called "1". Worse, the top level folder "test" is greyed out, which is how Thunderbird displays a folder that can contain only other folders, not both folders and files. I want to disallow this. Obviously I'd prefer if Thunderbird would display a meaningful error, but most likely dovecot cannot control that. I don't really care if the user just gets some kind of weird generic error or not, I'd just prefer to prevent dovecot from creating the problematic folders, and explain the problem to the user if/when they call about it (after NOT reading my carefully crafted documentation explaining the illegal characters that cannot be used in foldernames). -- Best regards, Charles

[Dovecot] acl, shared folders
by Infoomatic 08 Jan '14

08 Jan '14

Hi list, After spending quite some time to figure out how users can share folders I now hope someone of you could help me out. I am quite sure its just a stupid mistake/misunderstanding ... I am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with the shipped dovecot 2.0.19 When I login via telnet as user1 I get the following: 1 create folder1 1 OK Create completed. 2 setacl folder1 user2 rli 2 OK Setacl complete. 3 getacl folder1 * ACL "folder1" "user2" ilr "user1" lrwstipekxacd 3 OK Getacl completed. This seems fine. However, there is nothing listed in the account of user2. I think the mistake is in the namespace configuration of "location" or "prefix" Please help!

[Dovecot] LMTP with virtual and system users
by Philipp Kolmann 08 Jan '14

08 Jan '14

Hi, I have a mailsystem where i have some local users with shell access and full home dirs which receive mail and also several SQL virtual users only for mail. With the virtual users, everything works fine. Mail is delivered via LMTP and also sieve works :) The SQL Lookup knows what to do with username(a)domain.com The problem is the system user. If exim delivers the mail to the lmtp socket, the LMTPd can't find username(a)local.host I would be able to specify the global auth_username_format=%n but then my SQL queries break and I like the possibility to have xx(a)domain1.com and xx(a)domain2.com routed to two different accounts. As I have seen in the source, I can't specify username_format=%n in the passdb { driver = pam } backend. Do you have any suggestion how to solve this issue? thanks Philipp

[Dovecot] Question re: filesystem permissions
by Charles Marcus 08 Jan '14

08 Jan '14

Hi all, I want to make sure the filesystems are correct/optimal and secure as possible. This is a virtual hosting setup only (no system users), and dovecot is currently running in high performance mode (I'm thinking I want to change that too, so wondering if that would affect the permissions)... /var/vmail (and everything under it) is owned by vmail:vmail. Current permissions are: /var/vmail 755 /var/vmail/example1.com 777 /var/vmail/example2.com 777 /var/vmail/example1.com/user1 755 (all other user home dirs are the same) /var/vmail/example1.com/user1/Maildir 700 (all other user Maildirs and all subdirs are the same) All files are 600, with the exception of the dovecot-uidvalidity.blahblah files, which are 444 So... is this right? Anything need to be changed? Thanks, -- Best regards, Charles

[Dovecot] virtual mailboxes folder structure
by Marco Cusano 08 Jan '14

08 Jan '14

Hi, I am trying to find a way to list my virtual mailboxes hiding the namespace prefix into my imap client. Fore example now my “All” mailbox is listed under virtual/ as: Inbox Sent Drafts Spam Trash - virtual All I would like to list as this: Inbox Sent Drafts Spam Trash All This is my 10-mail.conf: http://pastebin.com/DumEbbmy and this is my 15-mailboxes.conf: http://pastebin.com/QFzWGzyC I thought that the list = children paramenter would do but it did not. Thank you

Hey Joseph! Thanks for testing. > I couldn't recreate this with 2.1.16. Also, my version of "doveadm > search" does not accept missing header patterns. Is this corroborated > by dumping out the header with this same search query? > > doveadm fetch -u exampleuser hdr SUBJECT Silvester \ > HEADER Return-Path someuser at example.com Yes, it's same phenomenon when dumping with fetch. Of course you can only test this properly when you really have some mails with corresponding existing Header fields. (You can also try out other HEADER fields, like Reply-To, References, X-Spam-Score or whatever - just look at some mail headers of your mails and try it with existing fields.) So E.g. When doing doveadm fetch -u exampleuser hdr SUBJECT Silvester HEADER Return-Path someuser(a)example.com it initially outputs 13 headers (same as when using with SUBJECT Silvester only) , when piping it to "grep -i 'Return-Path'" it even found only 3 out of 13 headers containing a Return-Path at all, 2 of them different than someuser(a)example.com - so SAME behaviour as with search.
