I add a wrapper to sendmail, with strace output.
I try to send a mail as root, without any problem.
If I try with LDA (deliver setuid, owner root), sendmail do a segfault when trying to check the ulimit for the virtual user (sendmail.346_as_virtual_users at line 326, the same line in file sendmail.718_as_root, line 326).
Now we can use the deliver setuid, to have one virtual user per domain or account, but it's not possible to use cmusieve plugin with this configuration.
Do you have any workaround for this "bug" ?
Thanks

Attached is the full strace output of deliver (strace.lda)
On line 255, I have:
waitpid(0, [{WIFSIGNALED(s) && WTERMSIG(s) == SIGSEGV}], 0) = 29859 --- SIGCHLD (Child exited) @ 0 (0) ---
I'm not a specialist of strace. But 29859 is the sendmail process for sending redirect and/or vacation ?
I work last night on this problem and found nothing. Sendmail (postfix) can send any mail without any problem. He crash (with signal 11) only when deliver launch it.

I just install RC1 + Plugin cmusieve (cvs), the sieve script is compiled and the sive lib seems OK. But in my log I have sendmail qui with signal 11 when I try to send a mail with "redirect" or "vacation" ?
I remember hearing this before too. Did you ask about it before too? :)
Yes I have this problem one week before with some delivery problem (setuid).
Now with RC1, I can have deliver setuid, so I can use my virtual user/group (postgres) with LDA. And just for this thanks, this is perfect.
Anyway, I can't really think of why it would crash. What if you change the sendmail_path to /bin/true, does it still crash? (ie. is the crash because of the sendmail binary or is it Dovecot's forked process that crashes before starting the binary?)
I try with /bin/true, no error in the log, so I think this is a sendmail problem. I use the lateste postfix stable package for Debian Sarge ... that's a strange problem.
If it really is crashing inside /usr/lib/sendmail, there's really nothing that I can do about it.
Thanks for everything, your work on dovecot is really nice.
Any possibilitie to use a external SMTP server ?
No.
