[Sieve] Understand Sieve processing
by h8h 07 Apr '21

07 Apr '21

Hi, I have the following configuration: > cat > /etc/dovecot/conf.d/99-local-sieve.conf << EOF; > plugin { > sieve_before = /etc/dovecot/sieve-spam.sieve > sieve_before2 = /mail/sieve/global_before > sieve_after = /mail/sieve/global_after > sieve = /mail/sieve/%d/%n.sieve > sieve_dir = /mail/sieve/%d/%n > } > EOF > cat /etc/dovecot/sieve-spam.sieve > require ["regex", "fileinto", "imap4flags"]; > > if allof (header :regex "X-Spam-Status" "^Yes") { > fileinto "Spam"; > } (I removed the keyword "stop;" to proceed rule processing, which does not work) Now as a user (/mail/sieve/%d/%n.sieve) I want to create my own "Spam" rule: > require ["regex","reject"]; > # rule:[SPAM] > if allof (header :regex "x-spam-status" "^Yes") > { > reject text: > This E-Mail is SPAM. > . > ; > } I activate the traces and see the following if the e-mail is SPAM: > ## Started executing script 'sieve-spam' > 3: jump if result is false > 3: not jumping > 4: fileinto action > 4: store message in mailbox `Spam' > ## Finished executing script 'sieve-spam' If the e-mail is not SPAM: > ## Started executing script 'sieve-spam' > 3: jump if result is false > 3: jumping to line 4 > ## Finished executing script 'sieve-spam' > > > ## Started executing script 'roundcube' > 3: jump if result is false > 3: jumping to line 10 > ## Finished executing script 'roundcube' So my sieve gets only executed if the e-mail is not SPAM. Thats a bit odd. Could you explain how the sieve processing work and how I can solve this problem? dovecot --version 2.2.33.2 (d6601f4ec) on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Best regards Homy

Mass Stripping Attachments by Directory, Age, Size
by Plutocrat 05 Apr '21

05 Apr '21

Hi, I've been looking around for a solution to this problem. I want to prune down the attachments on a server before a migration. Some of the emails are 7 years old and have 40Mb attachments, so this seems like a good opportunity to rationalize things. So perhaps I'd like to "Remove all attachments from emails older than 2 years, in the .Sent directory", or "Attachments over 10Mb anywhere in the mail tree" I've found the strip_attachments.pl script here <https://fossies.org/linux/Mail-Box/examples/strip-attachments.pl> which works fine on mbox (as tested on my local Thunderbird mboxes), but not on maildir which is on the dovecot server. My Perl isn't strong enough to re-purpose it. I've looked at ripmime and mpack/munpack, and although they seem like useful tools to do the job of deconstructing the mail into its constituent parts, it doesn't seem to help in re-building the email. I think they could be used with a bit of study into mail MIME structure, and used with a helper script. So before I take a deep dive into scripting my own solution, I just wanted to check if anyone else on the list has been through this and has some resources or pointers they can share, or maybe even someone to tell me "Duh, you can do it with doveadm of course". P.

Virtual folders and mailbox_list_get_root_forced
by Joan Moreau 02 Apr '21

02 Apr '21

Hi The function mailbox_list_get_root_forced returns sometimes the first or the second value of the INDEX param for the same mailbox. How to make sure this returns only the correct one of the corresponding mailbox ? mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n:LAYOUT=fs:INDEX=/var/mailindex namespace { location = virtual:/nix/store/toto-virtual:INDEX=/var/vmail/%d/%n/virtual prefix = virtual/ separator = / subscriptions = no } Thank you

Replicator: getting full resync requests to sync
by Norman King 31 Mar '21

31 Mar '21

Hello. I'm getting the following output. root@mail:~# doveadm replicator status Queued 'sync' requests 0 Queued 'high' requests 0 Queued 'low' requests 0 Queued 'failed' requests 0 Queued 'full resync' requests 61 Waiting 'failed' requests 4 How can i get the full resync requests to actually sync? Is there a configurable resync delay time that i can use to force a resync of these mailboxes? Also, is there a way using either doveadm replicator or doveadm sync that i can see all the full resync users? Thanks. -- regards Norman King Compass Foundation sysadmin/tech support Phone, 856-974-5335 ext 221 support(a)compassfoundation.io <mailto:support@compassfoundation.io> Website <https://compassfoundation.io>

Temporary disable push notifications while restoring a mailbox
by Ralf Becker 31 Mar '21

31 Mar '21

We use "doveamd import" to restore mailboxes from a snapshot. Since we use push with Dovecot 2.3.13: mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_lua notify push_notification push_notification_lua plugin { push_notification_driver = lua:file=/etc/dovecot/dovecot-push.lua push_lua_url = http://172.17.0.1/ the import creates a flood of push-notifications. Therefore the questions: is there a possibility to disable push for "doveadm import" on the command line (not in general)?
