replication and .dovecot.lda-dupes
by Patrick Cernko 25 Apr '18

25 Apr '18

Hi list, this question was already posted a few years ago (https://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-November/098585.html). I already asked the original queriest and he told me, that he never got an solution or workaround but it was not important enough for him. When using replication in conjunction with sieve vacations, the .dovecot.lda-dupes file is not synced with the other server. So when delivering to both servers (round-robin or randomized), senders might get more vacation mails than configured as the other server does not know, that the first one already sent a vacation message. Is this a bug or intentional? If it is a bug, I hereby ask for a fix, please. We are using Dovecot version 2.2.27 on Debian/stretch. This is dovecot -n (hostnames anonymized): # 2.2.27 (c0f36b0): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554) # OS: Linux 4.9.76.1.amd64-smp x86_64 Debian 9.3 auth_verbose = yes default_vsz_limit = 2 G doveadm_password = # hidden, use -P to show it doveadm_port = 12345 listen = * login_log_format_elements = pid=%p user=<%u> method=%m rip=%r lip=%l mpid=%e %c mail_attachment_dir = /IMAP/mail/attachments mail_attachment_fs = sis-queue /IMAP/mail/attachments/queue:posix mail_home = /IMAP/mail/mailboxes/%u mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox mail_log_prefix = "%s(%u[%p]): " mail_max_userip_connections = 0 mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat" maildir_stat_dirs = yes managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date index ihave duplicate mime foreverypart extracttext namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf driver = ldap } plugin { fts = squat fts_autoindex = yes fts_squat = partial=4 full=10 mail_replica = tcp:other-server sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve zlib_save = gz zlib_save_level = 3 } postmaster_address = <> protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service aggregator { fifo_listener replication-notify-fifo { mode = 0666 } unix_listener replication-notify { mode = 0666 } } service anvil { client_limit = 2250 } service auth { client_limit = 2447 } service doveadm { inet_listener doveadm-server { port = 12345 } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } process_limit = 2047 } service imap { process_limit = 2047 } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { port = 24 } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 0 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 0 } } service replicator { process_min_avail = 1 unix_listener replicator-doveadm { mode = 0666 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certificate.pem ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/userdb.overrides driver = passwd-file } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf driver = ldap } verbose_proctitle = yes protocol lmtp { auth_username_format = %n mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat sieve" } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " notify replication zlib fts fts_squat sieve" } And this is /etc/dovecot/ldap.conf (hostnames anonymized): uris = ldaps://ldap1/ ldaps://ldap2/ base = dc=domain user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) user_attrs = \ =user=%{ldap:uid}, \ =uid=%{ldap:uidNumber}, \ =gid=%{ldap:gidNumber} pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) iterate_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(istMailHomeServer=servername)) auth_bind = yes /etc/dovecot/userdb.override is currently an empty file. P.S.: Although I do not think, that this has something to do with our problem, I should mention that we run SIS with system uids. This needs some permission and posixacl tweaks on /IMAP/mail/attachments to work: # force all files created in this dir recursively) to have mode 0666 setfacl -d -m group::rwx -m o:rwx /IMAP/mail/attachments (you have to enable posixacls for the corresponding filesystem!) # trick dovecot to inherit parent dir's permissions (recursively) chmod 2777 /IMAP/mail/attachments Feel free to add these tweaks to the SIS documentation. ;-) Best Regards, -- Patrick Cernko <pcernko(a)mpi-klsb.mpg.de> +49 681 9325 5815 Joint Administration: Information Services and Technology Max-Planck-Institute fuer Informatik & Softwaresysteme

File system permissions - setgid bit and Netapp NFS volumes
by Shaun Johnson 17 Apr '18

17 Apr '18

Greetings Dovecot List, I have a bit of an edge case I am trying to resolve. I am currently using dovecot on Ubuntu 14.04 - Ubuntu package version: 1:2.2.9-1ubuntu2.3 I have attached the output of doveconf -n to this email - but to describe the configuration in a nutshell: my server is configured to use Maildir storage I do not use dovecot delivery service (there is a separate program in my system delivering messages) I am using a 'checkpassword' mechanism for authentication My mail storage is mounted via NFSv3 from a Netapp Filer FAS3050 configured to set anonuid=89, read write access, and root access. Dovecot has been configured with: mail_fsync = always mail_nfs_index = yes mail_nfs_storage = yes mmap_disable = yes lock_method = fcntl In order to function with the other components of my system, the Mail Storage directories are expected to have permissions: drwx--S--- uid 89: gid 89 The oddity I am encountering came up recently when I set up a job to monitor and correct directory permissions. I found after observing the system in action that overtime, the ~/Maildir directories for all active mailboxes would mysteriously lose the setgid bit. Now, while the system still functioned, it was something unexpected so I investigated further by turning on auditd to monitor what was changing the permissions on the path. After tracing through the results, I found an entry indicating that the 'imap' process of dovecot was performing a 'chown' call on the directory, with an end result of the previous mode 2700 being changed to 0700. Now I understand that on some filesystems, a 'chown' call can end up losing any setuid or setgid bits on an inode - and apparently Netapp's WAFL file system is one of them. Looking at the dovecot source code, I *believe* the source of the chown call is in src/lib/nfs-workarounds.c function nfs_flush_chown_uid - where a 'chown' call is being used to flush NFS attribute caches? for what I believe is the purposes of ascertaining file lock status? My question for you folks is if anyone else has encountered this on other file systems (or filers) - and if there is a native method in dovecot - either the version I am currently running or an updated newer version - that allows one to either retain the permissions assigned to a directory or specify the permissions I expect on the Maildir directory structures. Any feedback would be welcome, thanks! -- Shaun Johnson LinuxMagic Inc. 604-682-0300 Beautiful British Columbia, Canada

Hi, I recently configured dovecot to manage auth for both local and virtual user. When i login as a virtual user (claudio.panetta) I get the following message: dovecot: auth: Error: passwd(claudio.panetta,160.97.62.1,<WLjlnZ9oRACgYT4B>): getpwnam() failed: Illegal seek but login is ok and sending/receiving email is ok, how can, if possible, I suppress this error message?

Issue with a bug with imap-login
by Grant Keller 31 Mar '18

31 Mar '18

Hello, Currently working on migrating our existing directors from 2.1.13 to 2.2.10. In 2.2.10 when issuing the logout command on an unauthenticated connection, the connection is closed before the server sends the BYE line to the client. The new version works as expected with a non-secure connection. I will include the strace output from the imap-login process that shows the connection closing before the message can be sent. # 2.2.10: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux

debian lintian warn: hardening-no-fortify-functions
by A. Schulze 30 Mar '18

30 Mar '18

Hello, to build + packages dovecot I use the usual Debian tool chain. That includes build with selected GCC options and running lintian. I notice since a long time (read: many earlier versions, up to 2.2.35) this lintian warnings: I: dovecot-core: hardening-no-fortify-functions usr/lib/dovecot/auth N: N: This package provides an ELF binary that lacks the use of fortified libc N: functions. Either there are no potentially unfortified functions called N: by any routines, all unfortified calls have already been fully validated N: at compile-time, or the package was not built with the default Debian N: compiler flags defined by dpkg-buildflags. If built using N: dpkg-buildflags directly, be sure to import CPPFLAGS. N: N: NB: Due to false-positives, Lintian ignores some unprotected functions N: (e.g. memcpy). N: N: Refer to https://wiki.debian.org/Hardening and N: https://bugs.debian.org/673112 for details.

Frequentl failures to create /tmp/dovecot.imap
by Peter 29 Mar '18

29 Mar '18

I am using dovecot 2.2.27 with plesk 12 and I have made no modifications to the dovecot config. my log file frequently (but not always!) reports errors that /tmp/dovecot.imap could not be created. The errors don't appear for every imap connect but for about 5% to 10% of the time. I already attempted to solve the problem by adding the following line to /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf but that did not remove the error: mail_temp_dir = /tmp So why does dovecot mostly work without errors but sometimes fails to create the /tmp/dovecot.imap? ..excerpt from /var/log/syslog... dovecot: service=imap, user=user1(a)mydomain1.com, ip=[::1]. Error: Temp file creation to /tmp/dovecot.imap. failed: No such file or directory]: 1 Time(s) dovecot: service=imap, user=users2(a)mydomain2.com, ip=[::1].

Release 2.3.1
by aki.tuomi＠dovecot.fi 29 Mar '18

29 Mar '18

Hi! We are releasing v2.3.1, which mostly consists of bug fixes for 2.3.0, and few improvements. This is also available via https://repo.dovecot.org if you want packages. libsodium support didn't get into this build, due to build environment issues, but 2.3.2 will contain it. * Submission server support improvements and bug fixes - Lots of bug fixes to submission server * API CHANGE: array_idx_modifiable will no longer allocate space - Particularly affects how you should check MODULE_CONTEXT result, or use REQUIRE_MODULE_CONTEXT. + mail_attachment_detection_options setting controls when $HasAttachment and $HasNoAttachment keywords are set for mails. + imap: Support fetching body snippets using FETCH (SNIPPET) or (SNIPPET (LAZY=FUZZY)) + fs-compress: Automatically detect whether input is compressed or not. Prefix the compression algorithm with "maybe-" to enable the detection, for example: "compress:maybe-gz:6:..." + Added settings to change dovecot.index* files' optimization behavior. See https://wiki2.dovecot.org/IndexFiles#Settings + Auth cache can now utilize auth workers to do password hash verification by setting auth_cache_verify_password_with_worker=yes. + Added charset_alias plugin. See https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/CharsetAlias + imap_logout_format and pop3_logout_format settings now support all of the generic variables (e.g. %{rip}, %{session}, etc.) -- Aki Tuomi Dovecot oy
