Hi!

I have some questions about doveadm-expunge's debug messages.

# /usr/local/bin/doveadm -Dv expunge -u <user> mailbox 'sa.*' SAVEDBEFORE 6h doveadm(root): Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/local/lib/dovecot doveadm(root): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/lib10_quota_plugin.so doveadm(root): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/lib20_expire_plugin.so doveadm(root): Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm doveadm(root): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_expire_plugin.so doveadm(root): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm/lib10_doveadm_quota_plugin.so doveadm(root): Debug: expire: Searching only users listed in expire database ^^^^ That I don't understand. Does this mean that I can only specify users with the '-u' parameter from the list from the expire database, which is configured with: dict { expire = pgsql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf }

If I don't specify a user with '-u', then nothing gets expunged, so it doesn't get the list of users from the expire database.

doveadm(<user>): Debug: expunge: box=sa.spam uid=6376 doveadm(<user>): Debug: expunge: box=sa.spam uid=6377 doveadm(<user>): Debug: expunge: box=sa.spam uid=6378 doveadm(<user>): Debug: expunge: box=sa.spam uid=6379 doveadm(<user>): Debug: expunge: box=sa.spam uid=6380 doveadm(<user>): Debug: expunge: box=sa.spam uid=6381 doveadm(<user>): Debug: expunge: box=sa.spam uid=6382 doveadm(<user>): Debug: expunge: box=sa.spam uid=6383 doveadm(<user>): Error: net_connect_unix(/var/dovecot//dict) failed: Permission denied

# ls -la /var/dovecot/dict srw------- 1 root wheel 0 Sep 21 09:47:00 2010 /var/dovecot/dict=

service dict { chroot = client_limit = 1 drop_priv_before_exec = no executable = dict extra_groups = group = idle_kill = 0 s privileged_group = process_limit = 0 process_min_avail = 0 protocol = service_count = 0 type = unix_listener dict { group = mode = 0600 user = } user = $default_internal_user vsz_limit = 4294967295 }

What is trying to use that socket when I'm expunging mails? Am I supposed to grant my internal_user some privileges to that socket? While I got that error message, the expunge has succeeded.

Thanks, Daniel
