[Dovecot] managesieve build error
by Bradley Giesbrecht 23 Feb '10

23 Feb '10

Hello, dovecot-1.2.10 dovecot-sieve-0.1.14 dovecot-managesieve-0.11.11 I believe I patched dovecot successfully and compiled the dovecot and dovecot-sieve source tress. patching file README.managesieve patching file dovecot-example.conf patching file src/master/child-process.c patching file src/master/child-process.h patching file src/master/listener.c patching file src/master/login-process.c patching file src/master/mail-process.c patching file src/master/main.c patching file src/master/master-settings-defs.c patching file src/master/master-settings.c patching file src/master/master-settings.h Then I configure dovecot-managesieve and this completes without error. But when I make dovecot-managesieve I get this error: # Making all in managesieve .... main.c:195: error: variable 'managesieve_sieve_env' has initializer but incomplete type # Where should I be looking for a solution? Thank you, Bradley Giesbrecht

[Dovecot] v2.0 IMAP Capabilities announcement
by Thomas Leuxner 23 Feb '10

23 Feb '10

Hi, I have an Android Mail App which worked fine with IDLE pushes before (K-9 Mail) under 1.2.10. With 2.0 beta 3 it seems to be looking for an IDLE prompt from the server, otherwise it will disable connection idling (whether this is valid or not). Setting 'imap_capability = IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID IDLE ENABLE' does the trick, but is it possible to add additional values to the default reply like this? imap_capability = +IDLE ...or whatever syntax/form one would chose to preserve internal defaults. Thanks Thomas

[Dovecot] show only subscribed folders
by Frank Cusack 23 Feb '10

23 Feb '10

is there a plugin or some other method by which i could have a user ONLY have access to subscribed folders? having a separate login or a separate instance of dovecot is ok if necessary. the iPhone always shows ALL folders, not just subscribed ones. i'd like to be able to see only the subscribed folders.

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.0.beta3 Configuration issue (I think)
by Mark Sapiro 23 Feb '10

23 Feb '10

I have been running dovecot 1.2.10 without problems. I am trying to install 2.0.beta3. I have I think translated all my configuration customizations correctly, but I have problems. I can start dovecot, but I can't login, at least not with SSL. Here's my dovecot -n # 2.0.beta3: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-8.1.14.el5 i686 CentOS release 5 (Final) auth_mechanisms = plain apop login auth_worker_max_count = 5 mail_location = mbox:~/Mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u mail_privileged_group = mail mbox_write_locks = fcntl dotlock passdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot.passwd deny = no driver = passwd-file master = no pass = no } passdb { deny = no driver = pam master = no pass = no } ssl_cert = /etc/postfix/sbh16-cert.pem ssl_key = /etc/postfix/sbh16-key.pem userdb { driver = passwd } Note the files /etc/postfix/sbh16-cert.pem and /etc/postfix/sbh16-key.pem exist and are the same files I use with dovecot 1.2. Dovecot starts OK, but when I try to connect with a pop3 or imap client, the connection is established, but no response is sent to the client. Here are the dovecot entries from the maillog from startup through the failed pop3 and imap logins.

[Dovecot] v2.0.beta3 released
by Timo Sirainen 22 Feb '10

22 Feb '10

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/beta/dovecot-2.0.beta3.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/beta/dovecot-2.0.beta3.tar.gz.sig I had to break a few APIs in this release to get some other stuff implemented and fixed. And since I had to break some of them, I decided it could be a good time to do some other less necessary API cleanups. This made things again much simpler. I'm hoping to get v2.0.rc1 out in not too distant future. Pretty much the only big missing feature that I wanted to do is being able to add per-protocol auth settings (e.g. protocol smtp { userdb { .. } }), but that doesn't seem to be all that easy to implement. There are of course some bugs still left to be fixed, mainly related to mdbox and dsync. User visible changes: - imap_zlib plugin implements COMPRESS=DEFLATE IMAP extension - zlib plugin: Added support for compressing mails while saving - zlib plugin: fixed reading bzip2 compressed mail files - zlib plugin: Added support for dbox and mdbox formats - mdbox: doveadm purge moves old mails to alt storage (if using alt storage) - added support for tcpwrappers - added support for SHA512 password scheme (by Mark Washenberger) - mailbox deletion is now free of race conditions (e.g. quota calculations). if another session tries to access mailbox before it's fully deleted, it'll get "Mailbox is being deleted" error. - "key = $set" in config file now sets key's value to "set" setting's value. this is probably rather limited outside the only place where I created it for: service { user = $default_internal_user } - default_internal_user and default_login_user settings now specify what users should be used for them. currently the default is still dovecot and dovecot, but I'm hoping to change default_login_user to something else.. - Removed maildir_copy_preserve_filename setting. It's now always tried to be preserved (or rather: message's GUID is preserved) - auth failure penalty tries to avoid increasing penalty for IP if auth is failing always with the same user+password combination. - doveadm penalty command can be used to see the current penalties - login processes: config lookups are now cached, so it no longer asks for configuration from config process every time (except if there are remote {} blocks in config. also the local {} caching could be smarter.) - Tons of mdbox fixes - Tons of dsync fixes, especially with mbox So some of the changes visible to developers are: - dovecot-config file changed. if your external plugin uses this file, you need to change it to use the new format. - added dovecot.m4 file that can be used by external plugins' configure script to get Dovecot settings. This was mainly done by Dennis Schridde. - mailbox_alloc() no longer has stream parameter, instead there's mailbox_open_stream() - mailbox_close() renamed to mailbox_free(). added a different mailbox_close(), which only closes opened mailbox, but doesn't free it. - mailbox_delete(), mailbox_rename() APIs changed - notify plugin's delete/rename API changed as well - mailbox GUID is now looked up using mailbox_get_guid(), not mailbox_status() - dict_iterate*() API changed

by Frank Elsner 22 Feb '10

22 Feb '10

Hello *, I've a well functioning dovecot.1.2.10 installation. I'd like to migrate to dovecot.2.0.beta. Is it possible to use one (big) dovecot.conf or must I split it into pieces into directory conf.d? What is the best procedure to convert the configuration file? Any pointers welcome. --Frank Elsner

[Dovecot] (minor) bug in configure
by Sandro Tosi 22 Feb '10

22 Feb '10

Hello, while reading config options for dovecot v1.2.10 I've noticed a very small bug: # ./configure --help | egrep -- 'Dovecot|--with-gnu-ld' `configure' configures Dovecot 1.2.10 to adapt to many kinds of systems. --with-gnu-ld assume the C compiler uses GNU ld [default=no] --with-gnu-ld assume the C compiler uses GNU ld default=no I think the latter entry should be removed. Thanks for considering, Sandro
