Re-Enabling TLS1.1 in dovecot 2.3.16
by Nils 14 Dec '23

14 Dec '23

Hi, I'd like to re-enable TLS1.1 (at least temporary) to see if it fixes a problem with one of my clients. When I add "ssl_min_protocol = TLSv1.1" to either dovecot.conf or conf.d/10-ssl.conf it doesn't seem to have an effect. Still the client is not working. I used testssl.sh to check the available ssl versions and it says that tls1.1 is not offered: $ ./testssl.sh --starttls imap SERVERNAME.TLD:143 ... Service set: STARTTLS via IMAP Testing protocols via sockets SSLv2 not offered (OK) SSLv3 not offered (OK) TLS 1 not offered TLS 1.1 not offered TLS 1.2 offered (OK) TLS 1.3 offered (OK): final Kind regards, Nils

dovecot submission max line length
by Kees van Vloten 13 Dec '23

13 Dec '23

Hi all, After upgrading Debian Bullseye (Dovecot 2.3.13) to Bookworm (Dovcecot 2.3.19), submission-login returns an error on Kerberos authentication: "Client sent invalid command: Command line is too long". When I initially set this up on Bullseye I have seen the same issue, but adding "imap_max_line_length = 2M" solved it. Now with 2.3.19 kerberos authentication still works (with this setting) for imap connections but it stopped working for submission. Is there a new config setting for submission-login that I missed? Or is this a bug in 2.3.19? - Kees.

Username used by dovecot to access database certificate and key files
by John Fawcett 08 Dec '23

08 Dec '23

Hi does anyone happen to know the username under which dovecot accesses the certificate and key files when connecting to a mariadb database with ssl? I can't seem to get dovecot to read the files without a "other" readable bit set. I have dovecot users in mysql with the following connect string in dovecot-sql.conf.ext connect = host=x.x.x host=y.y.y host=z.z.z dbname=maildb user=mailuser password=xxxxxx \ ssl_ca=/etc/ssl/mysql/ca-cert.pem \ ssl_cert=/etc/ssl/mysql/client-cert.pem \ ssl_key=/etc/ssl/mysql/client-key.pem \ ssl_verify_server_cert=yes The certificate and key files in /etc/ssl/mysql/ are owned by root with group users: ls -l /etc/ssl/mysql total 12 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 2041 Jun 22 15:32 ca-cert.pem -r--r--r--. 1 root users 1907 Jun 22 15:32 client-cert.pem -r--r--r--. 1 root users 3272 Jun 22 15:32 client-key.pem For my test dovecot, dovenull and vmail are all members of group users: grep users /etc/group users:x:100:postfix,dovecot,dovenull,vmail If I remove the "other" readable attribute on the certificate and key files, dovecot complains it can't connect to the db server: auth: Error: mysql(x.x.x): Connect failed to database (maildb): TLS/SSL error: Permission denied (13) - waiting for 1 seconds before retry I realize it only adds marginal security to not have these files world readable, but still it is puzzling why dovecot cannot read them in that case. Can anyone see what I am missing? Thanks John

replicator: Panic: data stack: Out of memory when allocating 268435496 bytes
by Gerben Wierda 06 Dec '23

06 Dec '23

One step further in my quest to create a replacement mail server. I now have my old mail server (2.3.19.1, macOS + MacPorts) and my new (2.3.20, Alpine Linux, Docker, apk package). When I turn on replication it works, but, after a while I see: Jan 06 00:50:31 replicator: Panic: data stack: Out of memory when allocating 268435496 bytes Jan 06 00:50:32 replicator: Fatal: master: service(replicator): child 133 killed with signal 6 (core dumped) Jan 06 00:50:32 lmtp(pid 195 user sysbh): Warning: replication(sysbh): Sync failure: Jan 06 00:50:32 lmtp(pid 195 user sysbh): Warning: replication(sysbh): Remote sent invalid input: - I've removed synchronous operation for now (found a message on the net suggesting that) but is this known and what does it mean?

auth_mechanisms per listener or local_name?
by Kees van Vloten 01 Dec '23

01 Dec '23

Hi all, I would like to use kerberos authentication on the local network but not for connections from internet, which are forwarded by haproxy. So both types of login can be distinguished by a different inet_listener and also a different by local_name. Is there a way to set auth_mechanisms such the it will impossible to use kerberos via haproxy connections or by filtering on local_name? - Kees.

client port int auth-worker log

Hello, Can the client's port number be included in the log entries generated by auth-worker, without needing to recompile Dovecot? Currently, the log entries look like this: |auth-worker(3538137): sql(user(a)domain.tld,123.123.123.123): Password mismatch | I would like the log entries to appear as follows: |auth-worker(3538137): sql(user(a)domain.tld,123.123.123.123,45343): Password mismatch | In this format, the client's port number (e.g., 45343) is also logged. thanks in advance.
