[Dovecot] Analyzing and correlating Dovecot with Postfix logs
by Igor David 14 Oct '13

14 Oct '13

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone knows what are best practices for correlating logs between Postfix and Dovecot ? I am having setup with postfix + amavisd + spamassassin + dovecot and everything looks like a charm for few years now. However, when e-mail arrives to my system, postfix is sending it to amavisd on port 10024, which is returning back to postfix on 10025, and postfix is then delivering e-mail to Dovecot (which is acting as LDA), so I can find e-mail header via message-ID … [View More]

[Dovecot] LMTP Proxy auth
by claus.r＠bayern-mail.de 14 Oct '13

14 Oct '13

Hi, i tried to use lmtp proxy to a cyrus-server where i need authentication. My passdb lookup gives me: user=mailbox(a)cyrus.serv.er host=192.168.1.1 proxy=Y pass=secret destuser=cyrus_lmtp_master As i see in packettrace to the lmtp-cyrus-server the dovecot-proxy didn't try any authentication. Could someone please confirm to me that LMTP proxy with auth isn't supported or is there any configuration issue i have missed?

[Dovecot] dovecot 2.2.x and replication with dsync and shared / public namespace

Hi, I'm trying to configure replication with dsync on Dovecot 2.2.5 (and latest nightly). I did followed the guide at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication But I can get dsync-server working only if my users do not have access to shared mailboxes and / or public mailboxes which is problematic for our setup. dsync-server is trying to create folders in public/ namespace : ------------------------------------- 2013-09-23 20:34:04 dsync-server(adupont): Panic: file dsync-brain-mailbox-tree.c:… [View More] line 384 (dsync_brain_mailbox_tree_add_delete): assertion failed: (other_node->ns == NULL || other_node->ns == node->ns) 2013-09-23 20:34:04 dsync-server(adupont): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x64faa) [0x7f7bf42dcfaa] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x64fee) [0x7f7bf42dcfee] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7f7bf4299299] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x41ba52] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(dsync_brain_recv_mailbox_tree_deletes+0xbb) [0x41c39b] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(dsync_brain_run+0x37c) [0x41972c] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x419bf8] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x42ba20] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x36) [0x7f7bf42ed3d6] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0xaf) [0x7f7bf42ee23f] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x28) [0x7f7bf42ecf18] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x416e59] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x40cc77] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x415ddd] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x36) [0x7f7bf42ed3d6] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0xaf) [0x7f7bf42ee23f] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x28) [0x7f7bf42ecf18] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(master_service_run+0x13) [0x7f7bf429e553] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(main+0x11b) [0x40c9eb] -> /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xed) [0x7f7bf3f0932d] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x40ca59] 2013-09-23 20:34:04 dsync-server(adupont): Fatal: master: service(doveadm): child 28131 killed with signal 6 (core dumped) ------------------------------------- dsync-server is trying to create folders in shared/ namespace : ------------------------------------- 2013-09-23 20:34:05 dsync-server(s.durant): Panic: file dsync-mailbox-tree-sync.c: line 1029 (sync_create_mailboxes): assertion failed: (node->ns == other_node->ns) 2013-09-23 20:34:05 dsync-server(s.durant): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x64faa) [0x7ffb6fd74faa] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x64fee) [0x7ffb6fd74fee] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7ffb6fd31299] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x426025] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(dsync_mailbox_trees_sync_init+0x139) [0x427789] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(dsync_brain_recv_mailbox_tree_deletes+0xdd) [0x41c3bd] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(dsync_brain_run+0x37c) [0x41972c] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x419bf8] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x42ba20] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x36) [0x7ffb6fd853d6] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0xaf) [0x7ffb6fd8623f] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x28) [0x7ffb6fd84f18] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x416e59] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x40cc77] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x415ddd] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x36) [0x7ffb6fd853d6] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0xaf) [0x7ffb6fd8623f] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x28) [0x7ffb6fd84f18] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(master_service_run+0x13) [0x7ffb6fd36553] -> dovecot/doveadm-server(main+0x11b) [0x40c9eb] -> /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xed) [0x7ffb6f9a132d] -> dovecot/doveadm-server() [0x40ca59] 2013-09-23 20:34:05 dsync-server(s.durant): Fatal: master: service(doveadm): child 28137 killed with signal 6 (core dumped) ------------------------------------- If I run the command "doveadm -v sync -u my.user -f tcp:10.20.0.2:12345" mailboxes are sync correctly.

[Dovecot] Problem with Dovecot after upgrade to Debian 7.0 (stable)
by Milan Milošević 13 Oct '13

13 Oct '13

Dear all, few days ago I updated Debian to the latest stable and since then Dovecot is not working. I use Dovecot as LDA for Postfix and also for IMAP access. Also I used SASL and everything was ok before update. After I updated to Dovecot 2.1.7 (it used to be 1.x before) it looks like that e-mail delever is working but I can not configure IMAP access to work. All users/passwords are stored as local users in /etc/passwd When I tried to connect to imap log file shows: Oct 12 22:16:16 … [View More]

[Dovecot] Transparent Migration from cyrus to dovecot
by Jogi Hofmüller 13 Oct '13

13 Oct '13

Hi dovecot people, We are in the process of preparing the migration from a cyrus 2.1 installation to dovecot. Dovecot will be installed on new hardware, so we have separated servers that can/will exist in parallel for a while. Our goal is to do the migration without interrupting the service for our users too much. Currently we tend to using dsync. So I am asking for best practice suggestions, tips and hints from people who have done such a thing before. Curiously awaiting your replies ;) … [View More]

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.2.6 comression library build error
by Dimitri 12 Oct '13

12 Oct '13

Hi, I'm trying to build Dovecot 2.2.6 under Mageia Linux, and there are two issues. 1. I get the following errors during build, please see http://pastebin.com/RmSRZPip - the compression library requires dlopen/dlsym/etc functions, but the library providing them is not mentioned in the linking command. I've managed to workaround this by adding -ldl to the corresponding src/lib-compression/Makefile.in line. 2. The lib90_sieve_extprograms_plugin.so library gets installed into <libdir>/… [View More]
