[dovecot quota-status] error "Invalid character in path"
Hello,
I'm using using:
- dovecot 2.3.3 (dcead646b)
- postfix 3.3.1
- dovecot "quota = maildir:User quota"
I'm facing the error:
"quota-status: Error: quota-status: Client sent invalid recipient address: Invalid character in path"
This occurred with this e-mail address: "John Smith"@keit.eu
Well I know it is not a conventional address but it is normally perfectly authorized.
When I disable quota check, I can received correctly the incoming e-mail.
So is there a mean to enable quota check with this kind of e-mail address ?
Thanks

That is weird. I just tested that the SMTP path parser in Dovecot correctly handles the address as you present it above. But I wonder what Postfix actually sends. Unfortunately, the current error message in quota-status is rather unhelpful in that regard. You could apply the following patch (against master, but v2.3 should be no problem) to get a better error message: diff --git a/src/plugins/quota/quota-status.c b/src/plugins/quota/quota-status.c index c88586d55..fdfd0fc4c 100644 --- a/src/plugins/quota/quota-status.c +++ b/src/plugins/quota/quota-status.c @@ -1,6 +1,7 @@ /* Copyright (c) 2013-2018 Dovecot authors, see the included COPYING file */ #include "lib.h" +#include "str-sanitize.h" #include "ostream.h" #include "connection.h" #include "restrict-access.h" @@ -169,8 +170,8 @@ static int client_input_line(struct connection *conn, const char *line) SMTP_ADDRESS_PARSE_FLAG_BRACKETS_OPTIONAL, &client->recipient, &error) < 0) { i_error("quota-status: " - "Client sent invalid recipient address: %s", - error); + "Client sent invalid recipient address `%s': " + "%s", str_sanitize(line + 10, 256), error); return 0; } } else if (str_begins(line, "size=")) {

Yes, Dovecot v2.3 pays special attention to parse these correctly.
When I disable quota check, I can received correctly the incoming e-mail.

Please try the patch.. then I can tell you more. Regards, Stephan.
