Dear all, Already i installed dovecot (lda) + postfix Now, when i search for dovecot+postfix+mysql+ldap , i don't find any content about LMTP with dovecot+postfix+mysql+ldap Unfortunately, When i find a article, paper or so on, it doesn't complete 100%, it means or doesn't have LMTP, or doesn't have sql, or it has sasl) Question: Is my way wrong?

X-sieve-redirected-from
by Bob Miller 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

Hi, I am chasing a problem with sieve vacation messages. the sieve file looks like this: ## Generated by Roundcube Webmail SieveRules Plugin ## require ["copy","vacation"]; # rule:[computerisms.ca] if anyof (address :contains "To" "bob.miller(a)ctfn.ca", address :contains "Cc" "bob.miller(a)ctfn.ca") { redirect :copy "bob(a)computerisms.ca"; vacation :days 66 :subject "autotest" "hello back"; } The mail is forwarded, but no vacation response is sent, and the mail is not forwarded. I find the lda error like this: _discarding_vacation_response_for_implicitly_delivered_message; _no_known_(envelope)_recipient_address_found_in_message_headers_ (recipient=<bob.miller(a)hostname.domain.tld>,_and_no_additional_ `:addresses'_are_specified) I am presuming this is the source of my problem. I am not sure why the domain is being modified to reflect the fqdn of the mail server host. When I look at the delivered mail, I find the following two headers: X-sieve-redirected-from: bob.miller(a)hostname.domain.tld Delivered-to: bob.miller(a)domain.tld I have been looking for a while now, and I can't figure out where it is picking up the hostname from. doveconf -a | grep hostname comes up empty. the hostname is not in any of the mta config files. Anyone got a hint? -- Computerisms Bob Miller 867-334-7117 / 867-633-3760 http://computerisms.ca

Dovecot does not update maildirsize after expunge
by Király Balázs 04 Oct '14

04 Oct '14

Hello, At the first, sorry for my englishJ I have a problem with dovecot quota since i migrated from courier. Dovecot does not update the Maildirsize after expunge, and the user running out of his quota very quickly. I checked, the file is deleted from the filesystem. If i delete the Maildirsize file, dovecot regenerate it with the correct datas when a new mail arrive. Also tried to set mail_debug=yes, but it doesnt show anything in the log, when delete mails. Im using NFS as homedirs, i tried to turn off the releated options in configuration, but didnt help. Has anyone any idea how to fix this issue? Thank you!

Configure antispam plugin with private namespaces
by Bruno Galindro da Costa 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

When I use antispam plugin <http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/Antispam> with a folder that is outside a namespace, the plugin works great. But, if I configure it to watch a folder that is inside a namespace, the mailtrain backend does nothing. Does antispam plugin have support to namespaces? *This is my config:* namespace spam { type = private list = yes location = maildir:/var/mail.spam/%d/%n subscriptions = yes prefix = "SPAM." mailbox Filtrados { auto = subscribe } } plugin { antispam_backend = mailtrain antispam_verbose_debug = 1 antispam_debug_target = syslog # the above NOT works antispam_spam = SPAM.Filtrados # the above works #antispam_spam = Filtrados antispam_signature = X-VERTICAL-IP-Quarantine-ID antispam_mail_sendmail = /usr/local/bin/mail_spam.sh antispam_mail_spam = --spam antispam_mail_notspam = --notspam acl = vfile mail_log_events = delete undelete expunge copy mailbox_delete mailbox_rename flag_change save mailbox_create mail_log_fields = uid box msgid from subject size vsize quota = maildir:DefaultQuota quota_exceeded_message = O destinatario desta mensagem esta com a caixa postal cheia.

Thunderbird ignores some folders
by dovecot.pkoch＠dfgh.net 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

Dear readers we are using Dovecot 2.2.7 and all of our users are using Thunderbird as their mail client. Some of them additionally use their iPad/iPhone and a very few an Android Mail-Client. Now one user noticed that two of his mail folders disappeared. He first believed that he accidentally deleted those folders but then he realized that they are still visible from his iPad. I checked this users maildir and everything looks normal. Deleting the index-files made no difference: New index-files were created but those two folders are still invisable from Thunderbird. My main concern is to find the reason for this behaviour. Maybe folders of other users have disappeared and they have not yet noticed. A fresh installation of Thunderbird will most likely fix this single users problem, but I cannot do this for all of our users. So here's my question: How would I debug such a situation? Kind regards Peter Koch And here's our config file: # Dovecot configuration file default_process_limit = 2048 protocols = imap listen = * base_dir = /var/dovecot/ mail_location = maildir:/mail/%u:LAYOUT=fs ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/naev+chain.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/naev.key ssl_ca = </etc/ssl/certs/naev-ca.crt ssl_verify_client_cert = yes ssl_cert_username_field = x500UniqueIdentifier auth_ssl_username_from_cert = yes service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } } service auth { client_limit = 4096 } service anvil { client_limit = 5000 } passdb { driver = checkpassword args = /usr/dovecot/bin/checkpassword } userdb { driver = passwd override_fields = home=/mail/%u } protocol imap { mail_max_userip_connections = 1000 }

LDA randomly failing to write email to disk
by Andy Dills 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

We're using 2.2.13 with pigeonhole 0.4.3, in a clustered environment (maildir on netapp, dual dovecot instances where each server is both a proxy and a backend). Every now and then (once a month per user, maybe?), users will see a blank email in their inbox. Investigating further, and we will see that the only information recorded in the maildir file for the message is the Return-Path, the Delivered-To, and the first Received line (the one generated by the local LDA via LMTP). For example, here is what I found in one such email today: Return-Path: <xxx(a)xecu.net> Delivered-To: <yyy(a)xecu.net> Received: from mail5.xecu.net ([10.0.1.85]) by mail2.xecu.net (Dovecot) with LMTP idX86eBjgaI1RdyQAA3SxDBg for <yyy(a)xecu.net>; Wed, 24 Sep 2014 15:24:20 -0400 Everything past that is lost, as if the either the LDA on mail2 exited early or was never sent the information from the dovecot instance on mail5. Here is a little more detail from the header of the same email, different recipient (all other recipients received the email properly, only one failed to receive properly): Return-Path: <xxx(a)xecu.net> Delivered-To: <yyz(a)xecu.net> Received: from mail5.xecu.net ([10.0.1.85]) by mail1.xecu.net (Dovecot) with LMTP id KPh8ItMXI1StBAAA/c3zFg for <yyz(a)xecu.net>; Wed, 24 Sep 2014 15:24:20 -0400 Received: from mail5.xecu.net by mail5.xecu.net (Dovecot) with LMTP id QsUBFoQZI1RjhgAAXyr1JQ ; Wed, 24 Sep 2014 15:24:20 -0400 Received: from mail5.xecu.net (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by mail5.xecu.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 30AAE323BB18; Wed, 24 Sep 2014 15:24:20 -0400 (EDT) ... This is what I see in the logs of mail2, which is where the failure happened: Sep 24 15:24:20 mail2 dovecot: lmtp(51549, yyy(a)xecu.net) X86eBjgaI1RdyQAA3SxDBg: sieve: msgid=unspecified: stored mail into mailbox 'INBOX' When I look at the logs of mail1, which is where the successful delivery happened: Sep 24 15:24:20 mail1 dovecot: lmtp(1197, yyz(a)xecu.net) KPh8ItMXI1StBAAA/c3zFg: sieve: msgid=<20140924192412.1435.qmail(a)xxx.xecu.net>: stored mail into mailbox 'INBOX' Nothing of note seems to be logged on mail5 (only a message from postfix, nothing from the proxy side of the lmtp). I do notice, when I check for the PID of 51549 in the logs, all of its other transactions seem to register with proper msgids and were delivered fine. Also, I notice plenty of other messages that have the msgid=unspecified error, but which were delivered with no problems and not truncated, so I'm suspecting what may be happening is that somehow the backend instance is not receiving the actual data portion, and only getting the envelope from proxy instance. How do I approach debugging this? It's very infrequent, but yet quite annoying. Seems to have started since we upgraded to 2.2.13 (from an older 2.1 build) earlier this year. Thanks, Andy --- Andy Dills Xecunet, Inc. www.xecu.net 301-682-9972 ---

GETMETADATA UTF8 encoding of folder names instead of UTF7

03 Oct '14

Hello, I have dovecot 2.2.13 instance and I found that (at least for polish language) folder names in GETMETADATA command response are encoded in UTF8. Shouldn't it be converted to UTF7? Both SETMETADATA and GETMETADATA arguments have to be encoded in UTF7, the problem(?) is related only to server response example: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Dovecot ready. . login user pass .

home from SQL
by Ralf Hildebrandt 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

Currently I'm using user_query = SELECT 1000 AS uid, 1000 AS gid, '/srv/vmail/%2.256Hu/%Lu' AS home, ... so I'm hashing based on %u (basically). But in my SQL db I have a "unique_identifier" field, which never changes, even when the user is changing his/her email address (due to marriage or the like). What I'd really like to do is to use %u to find the value of the unique_identifier field, hash THAT value and use "AS home". But how? That way I can rename users without shuffling directories around the filesystem. -- [*] sys4 AG http://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Franziskanerstraße 15, 81669 München Sitz der Gesellschaft: München, Amtsgericht München: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Marc Schiffbauer Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Florian Kirstein
