[Dovecot] global sieve not working

My global sieve rule is not working and do not compile. But per-user sieve is working. Here is my dovecot -n: log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log protocols: imap pop3 ssl: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_uid: 501 mail_gid: 501 mail_location: maildir:/var/vmail/%u/Maildir/:INDEX=/var/vmail/%u/Maildir/ mail_debug: yes mail_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugins(default): quota imap_quota acl imap_acl mail_plugins(imap): quota imap_quota acl imap_acl mail_plugins(pop3): mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 pop3_client_workarounds(default): pop3_client_workarounds(imap): pop3_client_workarounds(pop3): outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh namespace: type: private separator: / inbox: yes list: yes subscriptions: yes namespace: type: shared separator: / prefix: shared/%%u/ location: maildir:%%Lh/Maildir:INDEX=%Lh/Maildir/shared/%%Lu list: children lda: postmaster_address: root mail_plugins: sieve quota autocreate expire auth_socket_path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master sieve_global_path: /var/vmail/sieve/dovecot.sieve log_path: /var/log/sieve.log auth default: mechanisms: plain login default_realm: mydomain.net user: vmail username_chars: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_+@ passdb: driver: pam passdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot-mysql.conf userdb: driver: passwd userdb: driver: sql args: /etc/dovecot-mysql.conf socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/dovecot-auth mode: 438 user: postfix group: postfix master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 438 user: vmail group: vmail plugin: quota: dict:user::proxy::quota quota: maildir quota_rule: *:storage=0 acl: vfile acl_shared_dict: file:/var/spool/dovecot/shared-mailboxes.db expire: Trash 7 Trash/* 7 Junk 30 expire_dict: proxy::expire sieve: /var/vmail/sieve/%Ld/%Ln/dovecot.sieve dict: quota: mysql:/etc/dovecot-dict-quota.conf expire: db:/var/lib/dovecot/expire.db By reading sieve.log, it simple ignore sieve_global_path: /var/vmail/sieve/dovecot.sieve but the per user sieve /var/vmail/sieve/%Ld/%Ln/dovecot.sieve is working --barry

[Dovecot] file permissions
by Walt Shekrota 29 Mar '11

29 Mar '11

Dovecot 1.2.12 maildir format using :LAYOUT=fs (my Mail dir came from KDE) I can't remember the permissions of the /Mail/ directory because I haven't been concerned with it too much until now. I think they were user:user or user:mail. Now a new mail ends up 600 root:mail. (in alternate directories) When I start my mutt client to the imap server it gets an error for any folder containing a root:mail new mail file. I think the root ownership is a procmail side effect? If I chmod 760 Mail/folder/* (then the new emails show in dovecot without the access error) It appears mail comes to the INBOX fine just not individual folders On the initial access, dovecot gets a "missing +r perm" or "+x" in the log. 1: What permission structure should permeate my Mail dir? 2: What might affect the incoming mail file getting wrong permissions/ownership? I'm thinking the later may be a procmail issue unless it is related to initial incorrect permissions? Thanks for any insight. -Walt

[Dovecot] Trouble with password scheme module
by Ian R. Justman 29 Mar '11

29 Mar '11

Hi, all. About two and a half years ago, I wrote a hack to add an additional MD5-based password scheme to Dovecot, but I wrote it as a hack to src/auth/password_scheme.c since it was relatively easy to do, and I needed to get a machine running since the machine I was replacing, a Sun Ultra 5 running Post.Office, had dying hard drives. Now, I'm actually sitting down and adapting it as a module and am having trouble getting it to work. The code tarball itself can be picked up here: http://www.ian-justman.com/code/dovecot/password_scheme_po_smd5.tar.gz Before I continued, I made sure that a system-level account worked: # telnet <server IP> 110 Trying <server IP>... Connected to <server IP>. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot ready. user <username> +OK pass <password> +OK Logged in. quit +OK Logging out. Connection closed by foreign host. I then enabled the module, which introduces the password scheme "PO-SMD5". I have Dovecot's default scheme set to SMD5. If I get a password hash whose value has a {PO-SMD5} tag on it, the session looks like the following: # telnet <server IP> 110 Trying <server IP>... Connected to <server IP>. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot ready. user <user with PO-SMD5 password> +OK pass <user's password> -ERR Authentication failed. quit +OK Logging out Connection closed by foreign host. The following entry is deposited into the system log: Mar 28 17:44:51 <hostname> dovecot: auth: Error: sql(<username>,<server IP>): Unknown scheme PO-SMD5 However, when I try using an account covered by the system (which does work when the plugin isn't loaded in dovecot.conf), the session looks like the following: mikuru# telnet <server IP> 110 Trying <server IP>... Connected to <server IP>. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot ready. user <user with system password> +OK pass <user's password> Connection closed by foreign host. The following entry is deposited into the system log: Mar 28 17:45:13 <hostname> dovecot: pop3: Error: dlopen(/usr/local/lib/dovecot/lib_password_scheme_po_smd5.so) failed: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/lib_password_scheme_po_smd5.so: Undefined symbol "password_scheme_unregister" Otherwise, the patch I developed under 1.x applies cleanly to 2.0.x's password_scheme.c and works perfectly as a builtin. This work was done under FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE amd64. Any ideas? --Ian. -- Ian R. Justman UNIX hacker. Anime fan. Any questions? ianj (at) ian-justman.com

[Dovecot] dovecot auth password mismatch
by david＠davidwbrown.name 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Hello dovecot gods, after using Postfix with webmail for 8 years the new gen of email smartphones forces me to consider using IMAP. Actually, for several months I was successfully using IMAP. I believe the reason why IMAP worked previously (before migrating to the Cloud) the hosting server and the client machines were considered local by the system. Now, I have moved everything to a Cloud service. And, now attempts to use my Ubuntu Evolution or iPhone generates the following error condition in my logs: dovecot: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=imap lip=xxx.yyy.www.zzz rip=75.214.160.72 lport=143 rport=59107 resp=AGRhdmlkAGx1dGVmaXNr dovecot: auth(default): passwd(kilroy,75.214.160.72): lookup dovecot: auth(default): passwd(kilroy,75.214.160.72): Password mismatch dovecot: auth(default): passwd(kilroy,75.214.160.72): CRYPT(mypass) != 'x' dovecot: auth(default): new auth connection: pid=15522 dovecot: auth(default): client out: FAIL 1 user=kilroy ******************* dovecot -n ******************* 1.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.34.1-rscloud x86_64 Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir mbox_write_locks: fcntl dotlock auth default: realms: myname.name, hisname.name, hername.name default_realm: myrealm.com username_format: %n verbose: yes debug: yes debug_passwords: yes passdb: driver: passwd userdb: driver: passwd

[Dovecot] Errors logged from 2.0.11
by Andreas Kossack 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Hi all, we use dovecot 2.0.11 with local (LDAP based) users and see (occasionally) error messages like "Mar 15 09:29:26 MailServ local3:err|error dovecot: imap(xxxx): Error: creat(/dovecot.mailbox.log) failed: Permission denied (euid=1985(xxxx) egid=219(yyyy) stat() failed: No such file or directory, euid is not dir owner) but all (filesystem) permissions are correct and the user doesn't report any errors. All works as expected. What can be the reason for such messages? -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen A.

[Dovecot] Regression in settings-parser.c (dovecot 2.0.11)
by Michal Hlavinka 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Hi, one Fedora user sees regression in dovecot 2.0.11 (compared to prev. 2.0.9). There was change recently: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/diff/bc77e80947c0/src/lib-settings/settin… which adds call to settings_find_key_nth(...., &parent_def,...). This function can set parent_def to NULL, but there is no check for this situation in the code. So on next line if (parent_def->type !=... dovecot crashes. We've tested simple fix: if (parent_def==NULL) return FALSE; and everything was working again. Michal Backtrace of the crash: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. settings_find_key_nth (ctx=0x99e4050, key=0x99c4330 "plugin//etc", n=0xbff9bdac, def_r=0xbff9bda8, link_r=0xbff9bda4) at settings-parser.c:696 696 if (parent_def->type != SET_STRLIST) (gdb) p parent_def $1 = (const struct setting_define *) 0x0 (gdb) bt #0 settings_find_key_nth (ctx=0x99e4050, key=0x99c4330 "plugin//etc", n=0xbff9bdac, def_r=0xbff9bda8, link_r=0xbff9bda4) at settings-parser.c:696 #1 0x004f9ce5 in settings_find_key_nth (ctx=0x99e4050, key=0x99c4318 "plugin//etc/dovecot", n=0xbff9be1c, def_r=0xbff9be18, link_r=0xbff9be14) at settings-parser.c:693 #2 0x004f9ce5 in settings_find_key_nth (ctx=0x99e4050, key=0x99c42f8 "plugin//etc/dovecot/users", n=0xbff9beb4, def_r=0xbff9bebc, link_r=0xbff9beb8) at settings-parser.c:693 #3 0x004f94fd in settings_parse_keyvalue (ctx=0x99e4050, key=0x99c42f8 "plugin//etc/dovecot/users", value=0x99c42f2 "yes") at settings-parser.c:760 #4 0x004fa270 in settings_parse_line (ctx=0x99e4050, line=0x99c42d8 "plugin//etc/dovecot/users=yes") at settings-parser.c:862 #5 0x00dededa in set_line (ctx=0x99cd468, input=0xbff9c100, user_r=0xbff9c04c, error_r=0xbff9c0fc) at mail-storage-service.c:134 #6 user_reply_handle (ctx=0x99cd468, input=0xbff9c100, user_r=0xbff9c04c, error_r=0xbff9c0fc) at mail-storage-service.c:227 #7 mail_storage_service_lookup (ctx=0x99cd468, input=0xbff9c100, user_r=0xbff9c04c, error_r=0xbff9c0fc) at mail-storage-service.c:843 #8 0x00deeaae in mail_storage_service_lookup_next (ctx=0x99cd468, input=0xbff9c100, user_r=0xbff9c0ac, mail_user_r=0xbff9c0a8, error_r=0xbff9c0fc) at mail-storage-service.c:968 #9 0x0805f2e7 in client_create_from_input (input=<value optimized out>, ---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit--- login_client=0x99ce810, fd_in=11, fd_out=11, input_buf=0xbff9c0e0, error_r=0xbff9c0fc) at main.c:202 #10 0x0805f5dd in login_client_connected (client=0x99ce810, username=0x99c409b "sjoerd", extra_fields=0x99c4110) at main.c:267 #11 0x0051606f in master_login_auth_finish (client=0x99ce810, auth_args=<value optimized out>) at master-login.c:206 #12 0x005163c2 in master_login_auth_callback (auth_args=0x99c410c, errormsg=0x0, context=0x99ce810) at master-login.c:374 #13 0x00516d3e in master_login_auth_input_user (auth=0x99cdcd8) at master-login-auth.c:239 #14 master_login_auth_input (auth=0x99cdcd8) at master-login-auth.c:359 #15 0x0052cc72 in io_loop_call_io (io=0x99cea10) at ioloop.c:384 #16 0x0052ded3 in io_loop_handler_run (ioloop=0x99cc390) at ioloop-epoll.c:213 #17 0x0052cbf0 in io_loop_run (ioloop=0x99cc390) at ioloop.c:405 #18 0x005181fb in master_service_run (service=0x99cc2e0, callback=0x805f100 <client_connected>) at master-service.c:478 #19 0x0805fb0d in main (argc=1, argv=0xbff9c4c4) at main.c:375

[Dovecot] FTS Compound Search
by duonut 28 Mar '11

28 Mar '11

Hi I use roundcube as the webmail fronted to a dovecot server. It currently has squat enabled. When round cube performs a search, it does a compound search even if only one field is selected. >From another thread i read, dovecot in the v1 period did not support compound searches for squat. Does the latest version of V2 support compound searches with fts squat? If not, does fts with solr support compound searches? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/FTS-Compound-Search-tp31241908p31241908.html Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
