[Dovecot] blackberry emails
by dhottinger＠harrisonburg.k12.va.us 27 Oct '10

27 Oct '10

Does anyone have clients using blackberrys to access their emails on a dovecot server? If so are there any gotcha's that I need to configure in dovecot for this to work? Looks like all emails go to and from a blackberry server before getting to clients. thanks, ddh -- Dwayne Hottinger Network Administrator Harrisonburg City Public Schools "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler." -- Albert Einstein "The hottest places in Hell are reserved for those who, in times of moral crisis, preserved their neutrality." -- Dante

[Dovecot] Corrupted transaction log file
by Andre Nathan 27 Oct '10

27 Oct '10

Hello I run dovecot 2.0.6 on a two-machine cluster using OCFS2 as the file system. I have some error messages like these in my log: Oct 25 01:07:50 box5 dovecot: lmtp(8886, suporte=100br.com(a)lmtp1.prv.f1.k8.com.br) Error: Corrupted transaction log file /var/lib/imap/user/a3/suporte=100br.com/stor age/dovecot.map.index.log seq 29: Transaction log corrupted unexpectedly at 21536: Invalid size 0 (type=0) (sync_offset=21908) Oct 25 01:07:50 box5 dovecot: lmtp(8886, suporte=100br.com(a)lmtp1.prv.f1.k8.com.br) Error: Index /var/lib/imap/user/a3/suporte=100br.com/storage/dovecot.map.index: Lost log for seq=29 offset=21796 Oct 25 01:07:55 box5 dovecot: lmtp(8885, suporte=100br.com(a)lmtp1.prv.f1.k8.com.br) Error: Log synchronization error at seq=30,offset=312 for /var/lib/imap/user/a3/su porte=100br.com/storage/dovecot.map.index: Append with UID 5404, but next_uid = 5405 Oct 25 02:37:53 box5 dovecot: lmtp(8885, suporte=hostnet.com.br(a)lmtp1.prv.f1.k8.com.br) Error: Log synchronization error at seq=47,offset=22944 for /var/lib/imap/user/03/suporte=hostnet.com.br/storage/dovecot.map.index: Extension record update for invalid uid=21815 These two accounts happen to be accessed simultaneously by a number of people, but there are similar errors for "normal" accounts too, just not the same amount of logs. Is it not considered safe to do this kind of simultaneous access in a distributed filesystem like OCFS2? Is there a way to fix this error? Would a "doveadm force-resync" do it? Thanks, Andre

[Dovecot] stats plugin + UID command continuation
by Mike Abbott 27 Oct '10

27 Oct '10

When using the stats plugin for dovecot-2.0, UID commands that "continue" cause infinite recursion and crash. For example, "A22 UID FETCH 151 BODY[]" when the body is 3MB or so always crashes. For smaller messages, this command logs the duration twice. Here is a patch to fix it: --- stats-plugin.c.orig 2010-10-26 20:18:13.000000000 -0500 +++ stats-plugin.c 2010-10-26 20:19:10.000000000 -0500 @@ -197,6 +197,9 @@ commands = array_get_modifiable(&imap_commands, &count); for (i = 0; i < count; i++) { + if (strcasecmp(commands[i].name, "UID") == 0) + continue; + hash_table_insert(orig_cmds, (char *)commands[i].name, commands[i].func); commands[i].func = stats_command;

[Dovecot] Smart boxes
by Marcelo Salhab Brogliato 27 Oct '10

27 Oct '10

Hi, I'm using dovecot as IMAP server. I access my mails trough Mail (Mac client), iPhone and webmail. In Mail I use a smartbox that shows all my unread messages, no matter where it is. I really want this feature at my iPhone, so I'm thinking about developing a plugin that will create the smart unread box and follow these rules: - Every new mail arrived, it will create a hard link to directory .smart.unread (in case of Maildir); - Every mark as unread, it will create a hard link; - Every mark as read, it will remove the hard link; - Every mail delete, it will remove all files with same inode. This way, a smartbox with all unread messages will be available into webmail, iPhone and every IMAP client. What do you think about it? Is there a simple way? If it is a cool feature, I'll develop it and post the plugin here. Regards, Marcelo

[Dovecot] Dovecot's maildir format / is rm safe
by ian＠comtek.co.uk 26 Oct '10

26 Oct '10

Is it considered 'safe' to delete directly from a dovecot Maildir? I mean things of the form: rm Maildir/cur/1288062016.M581217P9422.alpha,S=1873,W=1900:2,S The wiki tells me 'If you wish to modify them in any way, create a new message instead and expunge the old one. ' but it doesn't mention deleted files. Specifically I'm wondering what happens with: dovecot.index dovecot.index.cache dovecot.index.log dovecot-uidlist Since (http://wiki.dovecot.org/IndexFiles) tells me these files index each message is there a chance of Dovecot breaking badly if it can't find them? Is it intelligent enough to automatically update the above files when it finds a missing message file? Would simply deleting the 4 files be appropriate? I have users with 4 gig mailboxes so I really wouldn't want to be deleting those files in a script every night if its a long winded process to regenerate them. Thanks in advance for any help, Ian

[Dovecot] Solicitud de atributo mailPlugins en el ldap
by Antonio Perez-Aranda 26 Oct '10

26 Oct '10

Antes del piloto o durante el piloto deberíamos tener este atributo disponible en el ldap. El campo debe de ser único y admitir información en una línea. En un principio, para los usuarios con búsquedas tendría el contenido "fts fts_squat" Para la segunda fase será un requisito casi indispensable, puesto que por este campo configuraremos algunos parámetros específicos de Solr y que sean diferentes para algunos usuarios.
