Hello,
I'm having trouble configuring the submission proxy.
I have configured the submission service as follow:
submission_host = smtp.example.com submission_relay_host = localhost submission_relay_port = 8587 submission_relay_rawlog_dir = /var/log/dovecot/ submission_relay_trusted = yes
My main issue is that until I login, dovecot-submission won't connect to the backend and query the capabilities and so won't report the right capabilities.
That mean that the first EHLO message don't get the right capabilities list.
" EHLO example.com
250-smtp.example.com 250-8BITMIME 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN 250-BURL imap 250-CHUNKING 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-SIZE 250 PIPELINING "
This list don't contains VRFY, DNS, and SIZE is not specified (all of these is present in backend EHLO response). After login, if I send an new EHLO command, everything is properly reported. The raw log shows that unlike what the documentation says, dovecot don't try to connect to the backend until the user is properly logged.
In my raw log I show that after I logged in dovecot-submission, the later open a connection to the backend and send a X-CLIENT command.
Now, if I try to force the capabilities by using:
submission_backend_capabilities = VRFY 8BITMIME DSN
dovecot properly reports all SMTP capabilities in the first EHLO response, but it completely stops emitting X-CLIENT command to the backend and try to simply forward the command without authentication, which result in postfix rejecting the command with an unauthorized user error.
What is wrong with my configuration ? Thanks.

Can you send us your complete configuration (output from dovecot -n)?

Yes (see below).
Some additional information:
===============
When I connect directly to dovecot-submission using nc and send an EHLO command, I got the following result (the SIZE is configured in dovecot config, that’s why it is properly announced), but no raw_log are generated at all.
$ nc smtp.example.com 587

Ditto if I use openssl s_client -starttls smtp -crlf -connect smtp.example.com:587 and send the EHLO after STARTTLS.

service submission-login { inet_listener submissions { haproxy = no port = 465 reuse_port = no ssl = yes } }
Shouldn't the port be 587 here?
My config file looks like:
service submission-login { inet_listener submission { #port = 587 } }
The # comment must also mean something..

My main issue is that until I login, dovecot-submission won't connect to the backend and query the capabilities and so won't report the right capabilities.
That mean that the first EHLO message don't get the right capabilities list.
" EHLO example.com <http://example.com>

This list don't contains VRFY, DNS, and SIZE is not specified (all of these is present in backend EHLO response). After login, if I send an new EHLO command, everything is properly reported. The raw log shows that unlike what the documentation says, dovecot don't try to connect to the backend until the user is properly logged.
In my raw log I show that after I logged in dovecot-submission, the later open a connection to the backend and send a X-CLIENT command.
Now, if I try to force the capabilities by using:
submission_backend_capabilities = VRFY 8BITMIME DSN
dovecot properly reports all SMTP capabilities in the first EHLO response, but it completely stops emitting X-CLIENT command to the backend and try to simply forward the command without authentication, which result in postfix rejecting the command with an unauthorized user error.
What is wrong with my configuration ? Thanks.
Can you send us your complete configuration (output from
dovecot -n)?Regards,
Stephan.
My configuration has 2 listeners. The default one (submission) on port 587 (which does not appear on "dovecot -n » output as it is the default)
And a second one on port 465 that is configured to use submission over TLS (note the ssl = yes in the configuration and the ’s’ at the end of the name: submissions )
According to RFC8314 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8314), this is now the recommended setting:
« In brief, this memo now recommends that:
…
o Connections to Mail Submission Servers and Mail Access Servers be made using "Implicit TLS" (as defined below), in preference to connecting to the "cleartext" port and negotiating TLS using the STARTTLS command or a similar command.

service submission-login { inet_listener submissions { haproxy = no port = 465 reuse_port = no ssl = yes } }
Shouldn't the port be 587 here?
My config file looks like:
service submission-login { inet_listener submission { #port = 587 } }
The # comment must also mean something..

Some additional information:
===============
When I connect directly to dovecot-submission using nc and send an EHLO command, I got the following result (the SIZE is configured in dovecot config, that’s why it is properly announced), but no raw_log are generated at all.
$ nc smtp.example.com 587

===============
Ditto if I use openssl s_client -starttls smtp -crlf -connect smtp.example.com:587 and send the EHLO after STARTTLS.
===============
For the record, here is the result of a direct connect to postfix:

My main issue is that until I login, dovecot-submission won't connect to the backend and query the capabilities and so won't report the right capabilities.
That mean that the first EHLO message don't get the right capabilities list.
" EHLO example.com
250-smtp.example.com 250-8BITMIME 250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN 250-BURL imap 250-CHUNKING 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES 250-SIZE 250 PIPELINING "
This list don't contains VRFY, DNS, and SIZE is not specified (all of these is present in backend EHLO response). After login, if I send an new EHLO command, everything is properly reported. The raw log shows that unlike what the documentation says, dovecot don't try to connect to the backend until the user is properly logged.
In my raw log I show that after I logged in dovecot-submission, the later open a connection to the backend and send a X-CLIENT command.
Now, if I try to force the capabilities by using:
submission_backend_capabilities = VRFY 8BITMIME DSN
dovecot properly reports all SMTP capabilities in the first EHLO response, but it completely stops emitting X-CLIENT command to the backend and try to simply forward the command without authentication, which result in postfix rejecting the command with an unauthorized user error.
What is wrong with my configuration ? Thanks.
Can you send us your complete configuration (output from
dovecot -n)?Regards,
Stephan.

Hello,

That is true and expected. No connection to the relay server is made until the user is logged in.

Yes, that is a bug. I have reproduced it here. We will look into it.

This is in the default 20-submission.conf file:
# By default, the submission service first connects to the relay server to # determine the support for such capabilities before sending the initial EHLO # reply to the client. If the list of capabilities returned by the relay server # is somehow unreliable or it is undesirable to start the connection to the # relay server before the first mail transaction is started, the backend # capabilities can be configured explicitly using the # submission_backend_capabilities setting. … #submission_backend_capabilities =
