managesieve has gone mad. One person went on holiday when he came back his out of office would not switch off, then it replicated it's self into two other users (the vacation noticE) and started to be sent out for them and those users had never set up an out of office or looted into round cube. even deleting the vacation notice did not stop it, but if we put another vacation notice in then the new one is sent out, if we disable the new one then the old one is sent out…. mad…. how can I refresh the whole thing and start again… ? I am running this on 10.8.4 mountain lion server and I can't stop sieve… I have looked in the /Library/Server/Mail/Data/rules/USERFOLDER and removed all sieve files I have looked in each users mailbox but no seve files there… I have restarted and still sieve will not stop sending out emails…. yesterday it went crazy sending a mail a second from one mailbox back to it's self…. help….. osx 10.8 server using latest roundcube with managesieve plugin.... bash-3.2# ps -aef|grep dovecot 0 27481 1 0 12:07am ??

[Dovecot] login_log_format_elements does not appear to be changing log format 2.2.5
by Chris 26 Sep '13

26 Sep '13

Hi, login_log_format_elements does not seem to change the login logs. I have it set to the below setting and the word "home" does not even appear. Is there something I have to do to for this? Also I use ldap for authentication. [user@MB1 logs]$ doveconf -n | grep -i log debug_log_path = /home/user/apps/logs/dovecot_debug.log info_log_path = /home/user/apps/logs/dovecot_info.log log_path = /home/user/apps/logs/dovecot.log login_log_format_elements = user=<%u> method=%m rip=%r lip=%l mpid=%e %c home=%h service imap-login { chroot = login executable = imap-login type = login user = $default_login_user [user@MB1 dovecot]$ tail -1 ~/apps/logs/dovecot_info.log Sep 04 18:19:55 imap-login: Info: Login: user=<test2(a)domain.local>, method=PLAIN, rip=10.100.5.6, lip=10.100.5.103, mpid=6571 [user@MB1 dovecot]$ dovecot --version 2.2.5

[Dovecot] Grant access for Unix-User _and_ virtual Users
by marco 26 Sep '13

26 Sep '13

Hi group, I have installed a postfix as an MTA and configured two "main" domains as well as two virtual mailbox domains. Normal unix users have their maildir in their homes (/home/%u) and the virtual mailboxes are located in /var/mail/vhosts. It works well, I only have a problem configuring dovecot. I wondered if it's possible to configure it in a way that both, unix users and virtual users, can access their mailboxes. I found some tutorials but they either give access to the "normal" unix users or to virtual users who are defined in a text file. Here some system infos: - Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS (Kernel Version: 3.2.0-23) - Dovecot Version: 2.0.19 Hope you understand my problem. Cheers, Marco PS: It's the very first time I use a mailing list, so I hope you can forgive me possible beginner's mistakes.

[Dovecot] Passing info from mail process to mail_filter plugin script?
by Charles Cazabon 26 Sep '13

26 Sep '13

Hi, all, The mail_filter plugin allows you to pass messages through an external script/command on the way into and out of the Maildir/mbox/etc mail store. With the recent/new version of the plugin, this seems to work correctly. However, my mail-filter script (for filtering messages on the way from the mail store through the IMAP process to a remote client) needs some extra info from the IMAP mail process. I'm having difficulty figuring out how this can be accomplished. Ideally, I'd like to pass another open file descriptor (opened in the IMAP process) to the script, but I'm not sure if this is possible. Opening the file in the IMAP main.c fails, presumably due to file descriptor limits, but I don't see where restrict_fd_limit() is called there. My second choice for passing this info would be in an environment variable or argument to the mail filter script. Adding env_put() to the IMAP code doesn't seem to get the value passed to the script, presumably because the environment is getting cleared, but again I'm not certain where the list of env vars to keep is set here. There may be another way to accomplish this that I'm not thinking of? Any assistance would be appreciated.

[Dovecot] "service_count = 0" for "service dict" (High-performance mode)

Hi, I'm running dovecot 2.1.17 with "Login processes" in "High-performance mode" as explained here: service imap-login { service_count = 1 http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LoginProcess but i thinks I should also set "service dict" in high-performance mode since sometimes the number of dict processes reach the limit of 100 (from default_process_limit=100) and I find these errors in the logs: Sep 25 15:32:24 imap(info@xxxx), session=<z9N2SDXnIQCy71XC>: Error: read(/usr/local/dovecot-2.1/var/run/dovecot/dict) failed: Connection reset by peer Sep 25 15:32:24 imap(service@xxxx), session=<xKxSSDXnwABb/1Ql>: Error: read(/usr/local/dovecot-2.1/var/run/dovecot/dict) failed: Connection reset by peer or Sep 25 15:33:48 imap(info@xxxx), session=<M8FITTXnwABb/CM9>: Warning: read(/usr/local/dovecot-2.1/var/run/dovecot/dict): dict lookup took 5 seconds Sep 25 15:33:48 imap(editoria@xxxx), session=<3LpHZTTnDgBdJwmm>: Warning: read(/usr/local/dovecot-2.1/var/run/dovecot/dict): dict lookup took 5 seconds Do you think will be better set: service dict { service_count = 0 or default_process_limit=200 (instead of 100) Thanks -- Alessio Cecchi is: @ ILS -> http://www.linux.it/~alessice/ on LinkedIn -> http://www.linkedin.com/in/alessice Assistenza Sistemi GNU/Linux -> http://www.cecchi.biz/ @ PLUG -> ex-Presidente, adesso senatore a vita, http://www.prato.linux.it

[Dovecot] unable to lock for exclusive access: Resource temporarily unavailable
by Nikos Papadopoulos 25 Sep '13

Dears, We have a mail server (RHEL 6.0, Postfix and Dovecot 1.0.7). The output of dovecot -n is the following: # 1.0.7: /etc/dovecot.conf protocols: pop3 login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_location: mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mail_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir: /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 pop3_client_workarounds: outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd During the last days we face the following problem: There is great delay in the delivery of the emails. Some seem to not be delivered at all. Issuing the mailq command we get the following message for almost all the email accounts: (cannot update mailbox /var/mail/xyz for user xyz. unable to lock for exclusive access: Resource temporarily unavailable) Please send to me any suggestions, because I cannot resolve it and I receive a lot of pressure. Best Regards, Nikos
