Panic: file smtp-client-connection.c: line 1142 (smtp_client_connection_established)
by Dirk 20 Nov '19

20 Nov '19

I'm using dovecot in a multi server setup. Two directors forward pop3, imap and smtp to backend dovecots with their central storage on NFS. Yesterday I stumbled upon these log lines: 2019-11-18 20:17:51 lmtp(17274): Info: Connect from 172.22.1.6 2019-11-18 20:17:51 lmtp(17274): Panic: file smtp-client-connection.c: line 1142 (smtp_client_connection_established): assertion failed: (!conn->connect_succeeded) 2019-11-18 20:17:51 lmtp(17274): Fatal: master: service(lmtp): child 17274 killed with signal 6 (core not dumped - https://dovecot.org/bugreport.html#coredumps - set /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable to 2) Is a core dump required to find the source of that error?

Sieve and recipient_delimiter
by ＠lbutlr 17 Nov '19

17 Nov '19

I use recipient_delimiter addresseses quiet a bit, and I want to put several of them into a mailbox if anyof (header :contains ["to"] [ “FOO", “foo", “bar", “florin"]) { fileinto :create “later"; stop; } When I get an email addressed to me+FOO(a)example.com or me_florin(a)example.com, the messages end up in my inbox (Yes, I have both + and _ defined as delimiters in postfix and in dovecot). Is this because sieve is not seeing the delimiter? I am wondering this because I have another rule that seems to be working fine that is largely the same, but operates on domains: if anyof ( header :contains ["From"] [“kreme.com", “localdomain1.tld”, "localdomain2.tld", "localdomain3.tld", “covisp.net” ]){ fileinto :create "priority"; } -- She'd always tried to face towards the light. But the harder you stared into the brightness the harsher it burned into you until, at last, the temptation picked you up and bid you turn around to see how long, rich, strong and dark, streaming away behind you, your shadow had become- --Carpe Jugulum

Auto expunge log
by Michael Ludwig 16 Nov '19

16 Nov '19

Hi, I'm just setting up a new dovecot system and wonder why I get this error. On another dovecot system this works with no problems. Log entry when exiting MUA Thunderbird: =========================== Nov 16 20:16:35 myhostname dovecot: imap(info(a)mydomain.de): Error: autoexpunge: Couldn't create dovecot.autoexpunge.lock lock: file_create_locked(/var/mail/vmail/mydomain.de/info//dovecot.autoexpunge.lock) failed: safe_mkstemp(/var/mail/vmail/mydomain.de/info//dovecot.autoexpunge.lock) failed: No such file or directory =========================== Is this double slash between /info//dovecot.auto... okay? I believe there should be a "Mailbox" in between? Configuration in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/15-mailboxed.conf =========================== namespace inbox { mailbox Junk { auto = subscribe special_use = \Junk autoexpunge = 90d } =========================== Maybe you can help me a bit. ;-) Michael

Feature request: ssl-cert config
by Marc Roos 16 Nov '19

16 Nov '19

I am not sure why this </ is used in the configuration. But I hoped it would concatenate the ssl_cert to have multiple certificates. So one could use it multiple times, as needed. It would be nice to be able to specify the intermediate certificate (bundle) separate from the certificate, so when updating the certificate I just have to replace this file. Something like local_name mail.xxxxxx.xxx { ssl_key = </etc/pki/tls/private/mail.xxxxxx.xxx.key ssl_cert = </etc/pki/tls/certs/mail.xxxxxx.xxx.crt ssl_cert = </etc/pki/tls/certs/SectigoIntermediate.crt } Or local_name mail.xxxxxx.xxx { ssl_key = </etc/pki/tls/private/mail.xxxxxx.xxx.key ssl_cert = </etc/pki/tls/certs/mail.xxxxxx.xxx.crt ssl_int = </etc/pki/tls/certs/SectigoIntermediate.crt } dovecot-2.2.36-3.el7_7.1.x86_64

Dear all, I send you a new email to know what is the progress of SCRAM-SHA-***(-PLUS) supports? Currently there is only SCRAM-SHA-1: https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/authentication/password_scheme…. - RFC6331: Moving DIGEST-MD5 to Historic: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6331 - RFC5802: Salted Challenge Response Authentication Mechanism (SCRAM) SASL and GSS-API Mechanisms: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5802 - RFC7677: SCRAM-SHA-256 and SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) Mechanisms: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7677 - since 2015-11-02 I have seen several months ago, commits about SCRAM-SHA-256. For your information, Cyrus SASL supports: - SCRAM-SHA-1(-PLUS) - SCRAM-SHA-224(-PLUS) - SCRAM-SHA-256(-PLUS) - SCRAM-SHA-384(-PLUS) - SCRAM-SHA-512(-PLUS) -> https://cyrusimap.org/sasl/sasl/authentication_mechanisms.html You can see more and more informations here: https://github.com/scram-xmpp/info/issues/1 Thanks in advance.

SASL AUTH with postfix
by Jorge Bastos 15 Nov '19

15 Nov '19

Hi, I just moved from Cyrus SASL to Dovecot SASL, with postfix. Works great, and no issue with non-ascii chars, has i had with Cyrus. With Cyrus i was getting the username/passwd via SQL, with this: sql_select: select password from smtp_auth_users where username='%u@%r' and status='true' worked ok for users with email addresses, and i had some special users that were just a name, like "user-1", and i was able to AUTH it. Postfix had: smtpd_sasl_local_domain = fastmail and in the database i had the username in the format: user-1@fastmail and worked ok. How can i have the same with dovecot SASL? Thanks in advanced,
