Pacaging/build issues with AIX and vac (dovecot-2.2.25)

Hi. I finally decided it was really time to stop being lazy and really move away from gmail. After I have a server in my basement using power, etc. So I turned on the imap provided - and did not quite cry - it will have to do for now, but imap2 is wanting. A real server yes, but not Linux. (Using linux would require another server AND I would feel I am being lazy again). So, I downloaded dovecot-2.2.25 and tried to build. Configure (messages to stderr) xlc is /usr/vacpp/bin/xlc + CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/include -I/opt/buildaix/include" CFLAGS="-I/opt/include -O2 -qmaxmem=-1 -qarch=pwr5 -I/opt/buildaix/includes ./configure\ --prefix=/opt \ --sysconfdir=/var/dovecot/etc\ --sharedstatedir=/var/dovecot/com\ --localstatedir=/var/dovecot\ --mandir=/usr/share/man\ --infodir=/opt/share/info/dovecot \ > .buildaix/configure.out xlc_r: 1501-216 (W) command option -dM is not recognized - passed to ld xlc_r: 1501-228 (W) input file c not found 1506-297 (S) Unable to open input file null.

[Dovecot] Dovecot stops with "Fatal: kevent(): Invalid argument"
by Henrik Larsson 09 Jun '17

09 Jun '17

# 2.0.11: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE amd64 Dovecot stops with the following logged: - master: Fatal: kevent(): Invalid argument I have found that a diff was created for "src/lib/ioloop-kqueue.c" for a similar issue: http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2010-November/054855.html I have patched my system with this and haven't seen the problem since, but I don't know if this is a coincidence. Could you please explain if the diff should actually fix anything or just add some more logging in case it stops again? Best regards Henrik Larsson

Fatal error with IMAP MOVE from a shared mailbox to Trash folder
by Daniele Barresi 30 May '17

30 May '17

Hello everyone. I have a problem using Dovecot 2.2.26 with ACL plugin and deleting e-mails from a shared mailbox. My user doesn't have the "expunge" permission on the shared mailbox, but it has the "write-deleted" permission. So, when I delete a message from the shared mailbox using a client that implements the IMAP MOVE command, it tries to move the message to my Trash folder. Then the server closes the connection to the client (process aborted) and I get three lines in the log file with a backtrace and "Fatal" error. In this case the message doesn't get copied or moved from the shared folder and the client complaints. I found the same thing happens whenever I try to move anything between folders of the shared mailbox itself, while logged in with my user. I can move messages inside my own mailbox just fine. If I try the same operation from a client that uses the IMAP COPY + DELETE commands, no errors are logged and the outcome is as expected: the message gets copied from the shared folder to my Trash and gets the flag "\Deleted" set on the shared folder.

I tested and reproduced the error with Thunderbird and Roundcube. The Apple Mail client uses IMAP COPY + DELETE, instead of IMAP MOVE, and no errors are reported. So I think it's related to the IMAP MOVE implementation on Dovecot server. Has anyone seen the same error? Any suggestions? Is this a Dovecot bug? --- Daniele Barresi

Plugin "mail_crypt" - using folder keys

Hi, i have two questions about using "folder keys" for encryption: 1. If i use this method how can i decrypt files manually? 2. If move a letter to another folder (or remove it), it will be unreadable.

Is it possible to use sieve when delivering via pipe to the dovecot deliver command ?
by Thomas Carrié 21 Mar '17

21 Mar '17

Hello, I am using Exim with this delivery configuration: virtual_delivery: driver = pipe command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d $local_part@$domain -f ... I have enabled manage-sieve and uploaded a simple sieve script that I can see on the server. man page of /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver says it supports sieve. Mail debug is enabled: $ dovecot -n | grep debug mail_debug = yes Delivering a mail shows only this line in dovecot log: Jan 21 17:38:51 myserver dovecot: lda(joe(a)something.com): msgid=<20170121183537.7313f219@homenetwork>: saved mail to INBOX According to page http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Troubleshooting#Sieve_Scripts_are… I should have a log saying that the sieve plugin is loaded Here is the sieve relevant parts of dovecot -n: # 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf ... plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } ... protocols = " imap sieve pop3 sieve" ... protocol lda { mail_plugins = " sieve" } Is there a requirement to use delivery via service (unix socket) so that sieve is enabled? Or is there a configuration thing I forgot ? Thank you for your help Thomas

[Bug] Mailbox aliases still broken
by azurit＠pobox.sk 20 Mar '17

20 Mar '17

Hi, about an year ago i was reporting a bug in mailbox aliases, which remains unfixed and unasnwered (probably totally ignored, don't understand why). I thought it was because the bug is old and already fixed but yesterday i upgraded to Dovecot 2.2.24 and problem persists. Here is the original report, everything, except the Dovecot version, is still correct: http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2015-June/101176.html Will this be fixed? Thanks for info. azur

Users with extra mailbox: namespace/mailbox in userdb lookup?
by MRob 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

Hello, We have a need for some users to have an additional folder created and subscribed for them. Is is possible to return an override for the default "namespace inbox" containing the needed mailbox definitions in the userdb lookup for such users? If so, how would the userdb lookup result be formatted? Presumably as just one long string, but how would the setting be named given there can't be a space in it? Can I replace the space with an underscore, e.g. userdb_namespace_inbox = '{ mailbox Drafts { auto=subscribe special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Trash { auto=subscribe special_use = \Trash } }' Or is there some other way to do this?

Dict protocol changes string
by Nagy, Attila 13 Mar '17

13 Mar '17

Hi, I use pass and userdb with dict protocol in a similar way: key passdb { key = passdb^MAuth-User: %u^MAuth-Pass: %w^MAuth-Protocol: %s^MClient-IP: %r format = json } (^M is an \r character, inserted with vi CTRL-v + enter) Until 2.2.24 this has worked, but 2.2.25 seems to convert that ASCII 13 into an ASCII 1 and an "r". Python printout from what I get with 2.2.25: 'Lshared/passdb\x01rAuth-User: user\x01rAuth-Pass: pass\x01rAuth-Protocol: pop3\x01rClient-IP: 1.2.3.4' Is this change intentional? Why?

fts_solr and connection via https://
by Jan Vonde 04 Mar '17

04 Mar '17

Hi, I am trying to get fts_solr working and my index server is available via HTTPS only. Dovecot is running on a Debian Jessie system and the Solr server has a letsencrypt certificate. My dovecot version is: 2.2.devel (a9ed8ae) The current setup is: 10-mail.conf: mail_plugins = fts fts_solr 90-fts.conf: plugin { fts = solr fts_autoindex = yes fts_solr = url=https://foo.example.com/solr/dovecot/ } When I try to index the mailboxes I am getting error messages like this: doveadm(user@host): Error: fts_solr: Lookup failed: 9002 Couldn't initialize SSL context: Can't verify remote server certs without trusted CAs (ssl_client_ca_* settings) doveadm(user@host): Error: Mailbox INBOX: Status lookup failed: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. [2017-01-22 09:52:38] Segmentation fault Contacting the index server via curl on the command line on the same host works, it returns HTTP 200: user@host ~ $ curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" https://foo.example.com/solr/ 200 user@host ~ $ Currently I have the following ssl related settings: user@host ~ $ doveconf -n -P | grep -i ssl ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/mail.example.org.crt ssl_cipher_list = ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2:ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/mail.example.org.key ssl_protocols = !SSLv2 !SSLv3 I tried adding the following settings but that didn't help: ssl_ca = < /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt ssl_client_ca_dir = /etc/ssl/certs Can you give me a hint how I can get the ssl certificate accepted? Thanks in advance and have a nice day, Jan :-)
