Due to some release process changes I didn't notice that one important bugfix wasn't included in the v2.2.30 release branch before I made the release. So fixing it here with v2.2.30.1. Also included another less important fix.

    - quota_warning scripts weren't working in v2.2.30
    - vpopmail still wasn't compiling

Also I guess should mention that in v2.2.30+ the "script" service's protocol changed to a new version. If anyone had written their own script services (not using the included "script" binary) they would need some changes. I haven't heard of anyone having done that though.

A quick request to just call these 2.2.31 etc.?

Can't easily do that, since we've planned the next few releases already. Changing the version numbers unexpectedly would cause a lot of work and confusion..

Did you give --with-storages parameter? If not, I don't really see why it would fail. What configure options & environments did you use?

See the other mails about this. --with-storages is no longer supported since it was too much trouble to keep it working. It's already removed from the git master branch, but I guess we should remove it from the next v2.2 release also. I didn't know multiple people were actually using it..

to be honest i would love a --proxy-only option, see below what a dovecot build spits out which is not needed as a proxy/tls-offloading only install

New subject: Minor patches for builds against ancient platforms

I was recently asked to upgrade some neolithic aged software (UW-IMAP, sendmail 8.12.x, apache 1.3, amongst other horrors).

The box is physically remote, so an aggressive "new flush" wasn't an option. I've been able to upgrade the compiler to gcc-3.4, openssl to 1.0.2k, glibc, php to something in the 5.4-branch, etc.

I have CLucene working, even.

I know should take a shotgun to the box and retire it. It's a NORTHWOOD P4, no less, with only 1.5GB RAM and 74GB of SCSI-160 storage.

*BUT* that isn't my call to make, as much as I'd like to do the right thing.

When Life(tm) hands you incredibly sour and bitter oranges, the best you can do aside from making a Palmetto Punch, is perhaps traditional Cochinita pibil the way they do in the Yucatan.

I ran across two main problems, the first of which struck during the build.

Amazingly enough, I was able to update pcre, gettext, openssl, textcat, and other libraries to modern versions without too much pain and suffering.

In src/lib/compat.h there is a definition for p(read|write) that conflicts with the one in /usr/include/unistd.h

On this box, there is a macro appended to the definition (to control whether or not THROW is defined in C++ "mode"). This is regulated by using the macro __THROW. I assume this is anachronistic.

There was an odd overflow bug in the quota module. (Yes, would you believe that user quotas are used + enforced on this Frankenbox?) I assume it's a rarely seen issue because few Dovecot users compile the software in caves on computers powered by horse-pulled generator wheels. I suspect Timo's seen more Abominable Snowcreatures in Espoo than systems like these.

Simply adding an explicit 64 bit (unsigned) type to the constant multipliers seemed to address this. Of these two patches, this is probably the most "safe" and thus likely to be accepted into the main branch of code.

Thanks for the great software, as always, Timo. It's a testimony to your design and implementation acumen that software you've written in 2017 still runs on machines that went obsolete in 480 B.C.E.

I am trying to track down one possible issue that could be locking-related, which causes some mailbox open operations to see to take longer than they should. Log entries like:

...

Warning: Transaction log file /home/luser/mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.log was locked for 95 seconds (rotating while syncing)

...

Warning: Transaction log file /home/luser/mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.log was locked for 92 seconds (rotating while syncing)

I am using sendmail 8.15.2 (HASFLOCK not defined) and procmail 3.22 (Locking strategies: dotlocking, fcntl(), lockf(), flock())

I also see odd errors while using SeaMonkey clients:

imap(luser): Error: fchown(/home/luser/mail/.subscriptions.lock, group=501(coregroup)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=200(users), group based on /home/luser/mail - see http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Errors/ChgrpNoPerm)

imap(luser): Error: file_dotlock_open() failed with subscription file /home/luser/mail/.subscriptions: Operation not permitted

.subscriptions doesn't exist either as a file or a directory in the named directories.

Is there a "filter" against dot-files being opened within the bowels of dovecot?

Onto the "meat" of this "bug" report:

Dovecot: dovecot-2.2.30.2 Slackware 9 (with most of the core libs upgraded to the latest possible) Kernel: 2.4.35-ow2

(All attempts to add mail to any folder fail with a quota error.)

With the patch:

# doveadm quota get -u luser Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 3364608 5500000 61 Group quota STORAGE 0 - 0

I don't know about this. Anyway, can't apply this patch since it likely fails elsewhere.

Yeah, I'll add that one. Not really sure if that's a generic 32bit problem. Nobody has previously complained about it though.

For a long time Dovecot supported C89 compilers, but nowadays we at least require proper C99 compilers..

Warning: Transaction log file /home/luser/mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.log was locked for 92 seconds (rotating while syncing)

As Joseph mentioned, this is likely happening because Dovecot is doing a lot of work while keeping the log file locked. The "rotating while syncing" is probably not the real reason. I think it's just doing a lot of work on the mbox file itself (reading/writing/rewriting). Would be nice of course if it logged more information, but mbox format is a bit too legacy to spend much time on improving.

imap(luser): Error: fchown(/home/luser/mail/.subscriptions.lock, group=501(coregroup)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=200(users), group based on /home/luser/mail - see http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Errors/ChgrpNoPerm)

imap(luser): Error: file_dotlock_open() failed with subscription file /home/luser/mail/.subscriptions: Operation not permitted

.subscriptions doesn't exist either as a file or a directory in the named directories.

Client is trying to subscribe, and Dovecot wants to create subscriptions file. Dovecot wants to preserve the group permissions from the /home/luser/mail directory, but it has no permission to set the file's group to "users", so it aborts. You could chmod 0700 /home/luser/mail if possible.

...

Is there a "filter" against dot-files being opened within the bowels of dovecot?

The problem above isn't dotlock, but rather the file permission preservation in general.

Due to some release process changes I didn't notice that one important bugfix wasn't included in the v2.2.30 release branch before I made the release. So fixing it here with v2.2.30.1. Also included another less important fix.
    - quota_warning scripts weren't working in v2.2.30
    - vpopmail still wasn't compiling
Also I guess should mention that in v2.2.30+ the "script" service's protocol changed to a new version. If anyone had written their own script services (not using the included "script" binary) they would need some changes. I haven't heard of anyone having done that though.

Just upgraded my Director and got this within minutes.

Due to some release process changes I didn't notice that one important bugfix wasn't included in the v2.2.30 release branch before I made the release. So fixing it here with v2.2.30.1. Also included another less important fix.
    - quota_warning scripts weren't working in v2.2.30
    - vpopmail still wasn't compiling
Also I guess should mention that in v2.2.30+ the "script" service's protocol changed to a new version. If anyone had written their own script services (not using the included "script" binary) they would need some changes. I haven't heard of anyone having done that though.
Just upgraded my Director and got this within minutes.
