[Dovecot] backup mdbox best strategy
by Claus 09 Dec '13

09 Dec '13

Hello, i have to backup (tape library) a mailsystem with about 300.000 Mailboxes on 2 backends. Summary of all mailboxes are 2 TByte. The mailstore is mdbox. Is it save to do a simple filesystem backup (full and incremental) with backupsoftware? What is the prefered strategy to do a backup for desaster recovery (mailsystem crash) and restoring single usermailboxes? Regards, Claus

[Dovecot] Expire plugin - empty expires table
by Peter Šori 09 Dec '13

09 Dec '13

Hello, Dovecot does not fill expires table when moving messages to Trash or Junk folder. I looked all over mailing list and googled around and cannot find what could be wrong - pleas help :) Dict works for quota, so I presume connection to mysql is not a problem - mailuser has Select,Insert,Update,Delete privileges over quota and expires table (log below for deleting message) dovecot log does not show any problems, not even with mail_debug. doveadm -A works

[Dovecot] [PATCH] lib-sql/driver-mysql.c - Add support for enabling MYSQL_OPT_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT
by Gareth Palmer 09 Dec '13

09 Dec '13

Hello, The following patch adds support for enabling MYSQL_OPT_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT. It makes the mysql client library check that the commonName in the server's SSL certificate matches the host name provided to mysql_real_connect() and aborts the connection if the name doesn't match. An example connect string would look something like: connect = ... ssl-ca=/path/to/ca.cert ssl-verify-server-cert=yes By default the mysql client library does not perform this check.

[Dovecot] dovecot.index-Errors with multiple IMAP client access in Dovecot 2.2
by Martin Rabl 08 Dec '13

08 Dec '13

Hello list, I hope you can help me! My self-compiled dovecot 2.2.6 (and the two minor versions before, too) throws that errors: Nov 28 18:29:00 mailserv dovecot: imap(martin(a)example.com): Error: Transaction log /srv/vmail/example.com/martin/Maildir/dovecot.index.log: duplicate transaction log sequence (25) Nov 28 18:29:00 mailserv dovecot: imap(martin(a)example.com): Error: /srv/vmail/example.com/martin/Maildir/dovecot.index log position went backwards (24,40 < 25,10028) ... and so on ... duplicate transaction log sequences and backwards gone log positions, and this always, when I use at least two IMAP clients at the same time (better: the two clients are online and logged in at the same time). That happens only with one user (me ;-) ), the other about 15 users on this server are having no problems. What I see: the clients are bothering each other, but I don't know, why. I thought about the used reiserfs filesystem on the server, but there were no problems with 1.2 on the same server. Some words about my client setup: I use Thunderbird and iPhone at the same time, and as a third client on the same Server there is a Thunderbird instance at my company, which runs parallel to the other two. Seems to be weired, but isn't really (IMHO ;-) ). Sometimes there are two TBs at the same mailbox, sometimes only the iPhone and a TB, sometimes all three. This runs quite good for long time with dovecot 1.2 and 2.1.x (the last one at my company in a similary setup with more users and several clients at the same time). Maybe there is an error by using "my" build configurations (I think, not)? ---- configures ------------------- ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local \ --with-sql \ --with-ssl \ --with-mysql ----------------------------------- Here are my dovecot.conf (only the changes of defaults) - maybe there is a misconfiguration? ---- dovecot.conf ----------------- # 2.2.6: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-028stab101.1 x86_64 Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS reiserfs auth_master_user_separator = * auth_mechanisms = plain login auth_socket_path = /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/auth-master default_internal_user = vmail default_login_user = vmail dict { acl = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-acl-sql.conf.ext } disable_plaintext_auth = no imap_capability = +NAMESPACE imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail tb-lsub-flags tb-lsub-flags tb-extra-mailbox-sep listen = * log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " login_log_format_elements = user=<%u> method=%m rip=%r lip=%l %c mail_access_groups = vmail mail_location = maildir:/srv/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir mail_privileged_group = vmail mail_uid = vmail managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave imapflags notify namespace { list = yes location = maildir:%%Lh/Maildir/:INDEX=%%Lh/shared-idx/%%u prefix = shared/%%u/ separator = / subscriptions = no type = shared } namespace { hidden = no list = yes location = maildir:/srv/vmail/public prefix = public/ separator = / subscriptions = no type = public } namespace inbox { hidden = no inbox = yes list = yes location = mailbox Drafts { auto = subscribe special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { auto = subscribe special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } mailbox Spam { auto = subscribe special_use = \Junk } mailbox Trash { auto = subscribe special_use = \Trash } prefix = separator = / subscriptions = yes type = private } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { acl = vfile acl_shared_dict = proxy::acl autocreate = Trash autocreate2 = Spam autocreate3 = Sent autocreate4 = Drafts autosubscribe = Trash autosubscribe2 = Spam autosubscribe3 = Sent autosubscribe4 = Drafts sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_after = /srv/vmail/sieve/after.sieve sieve_before = /srv/vmail/sieve/before.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve sieve_extensions = +notify +imapflags sieve_global_dir = /srv/vmail/sieve sieve_global_path = /srv/vmail/sieve/globalsieverc } pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh postmaster_address = postmaster@%d protocols = imap pop3 quota_full_tempfail = yes service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-master { group = vmail mode = 0600 user = vmail } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = vmail mode = 0600 user = vmail } } service dict { unix_listener dict { group = vmail mode = 0660 user = vmail } } service imap-login { inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } } service imap { process_limit = 2048 vsz_limit = 256 M } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } inet_listener sieve_deprecated { port = 2000 } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 110 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_cipher_list = ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2:ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " sieve" } protocol imap { mail_plugins = acl imap_acl } protocol sieve { managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave imapflags } local 1.2.3.4 { ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem } ----------------------------------- Thank you very much for your time and help!

[Dovecot] imap list response has an extra field on some mailboxes.
by Kui Zhang 08 Dec '13

Hello, per rfc3501 7.2.2. LIST Response Contents: name attributes hierarchy delimiter name Dovecot: 2.1.16 /usr/lib/dovecot/imap -u user(a)domain.tld list "" "*" Most responses are correct. But some appears to not be. """ * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" {117} path/to/"part_mailbox_name" other_parts * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "/" {10} "test" box """ char after {117} appears to be \n. All affected mailboxes appears to have ' " ' in mailbox name. And the number between '{' '}' appears to be the length of the path. Anyone ran into this issues before? If so, how to fix it? Is it a bug? Other rfc I should read? Thanks Kui.Z

[Dovecot] Dovecot readable compressed mail archive
by Dave Hall 08 Dec '13

08 Dec '13

Hello. Is Dovecot able to create and/or read any sort of compressed mail archive? We have a large installation with a few users who need to keep a large amount of email available. With maildir this means a large number of individual files, leading to additional load on our backup process. Even using a compressed mbox file as an archive would help, but only if Dovecot is able to interact with this file seamlessly while keeping current email in the maildir format. Please pardon if this is old business, but I haven't been able to find any reference to it by searching. Thanks. -Dave -- Dave Hall System Administrator Computer Science Binghamton University davehall(a)cs.binghamton.edu 607-760-2328 (Cell) 607-777-4641 (Office)
