[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.1.2, index_mailbox_set_recent_seq crash again

Hi folks, after about 3 weeks without any problems, I've found this crash in yesterday's logfile (again related to index_mailbox_set_recent_seq): Aug 16 03:39:58 linux dovecot: IMAP(user1): Raw backtrace: imap [0x80cf8e0] -> imap [0x80cf93a] -> imap [0x80cf26c] -> imap [0x809d11a] -> imap(index_mailbox_set_recent_seq+0x3e) [0x809d15e] -> imap(mbox_sync+0x105d) [0x80823fd] -> imap [0x807a454] -> imap(index_transaction_commit+0x4e) [0x809ddfe] -> imap(cmd_copy+0x35f) [0x805b26f] -> imap(cmd_uid+0x59) [0x805f3d9] -> imap [0x805fd7c] -> imap [0x805fe25] -> imap [0x80605e5] -> imap(client_input+0x5e) [0x80607fe] -> imap(io_loop_handler_run+0x100) [0x80d7230] -> imap(io_loop_run+0x28) [0x80d63c8] -> imap(main+0x4a1) [0x8068321] -> /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe0) [0x149390] -> imap [0x805a101] I don't know what IMAP operation caused that crash.

[Dovecot] tcp-wrapper patch for managesieve
by Edgar Fuß 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

Is there a place to store unofficial patches to ManageSieve? The attached patch is supposed to make ManageSieve (more precisely, managesieve-login) co-operate with a libwrapped (http://www.dovecot.org/patches/1.1/tcp-wrappers.patch) dovecot.

[Dovecot] "pam_start() failed: system error" with dovecot 1.1.2, cause unknown
by Adam McDougall 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

I would guess this is unlikely to be dovecot's fault, but I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas of what might have happened based on the evidence. My best guess is some kind of resource limit was reached but I don't see any evidence in the logs, and the condition is now gone. Suddenly this morning, one (and only one) of my dovecot servers decided to start failing all logins since 08:25:04 until we restarted dovecot, at which point they were working fine. The number of imap-login processes was under the limit, but there were some obvious PAM errors at the time. My account could still ssh to the system so I don't think it was a problem general authentication, and NIS on other systems was working fine. No one was logged into that server at the time the problems occurred, and I don't think anything happened to the actual pam libraries to make them missing since dovecot worked after a restart. I should have used other means to prevent people from using that dovecot instance rather than stopping it, and I'll do so if it happens again in hopes of further debugging. /var/log/maillog: Sep 2 08:25:01 hill dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<userA>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Sep 2 08:25:01 hill dovecot: IMAP(userA): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=127/568 Sep 2 08:25:01 hill dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<userA>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Sep 2 08:25:01 hill dovecot: IMAP(userA): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=282/9641 Sep 2 08:25:04 hill dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<userA>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Sep 2 08:25:04 hill dovecot: IMAP(userA): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=46/543 ***problem started here Sep 2 08:25:04 hill dovecot: auth-worker(default): pam(userA,127.0.0.1): pam_start() failed: system error Sep 2 08:25:04 hill dovecot: auth-worker(default): pam(userB,35.9.37.164): pam_start() failed: system error Sep 2 08:25:05 hill dovecot: auth-worker(default): pam(userC,35.9.37.164): pam_start() failed: system error Sep 2 08:25:06 hill dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<userB>, method=PLAIN, rip=35.9.37.164, lip=35.9.37.190, TLS Sep 2 08:25:06 hill dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<userA>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Sep 2 08:25:07 hill dovecot: imap-login: Aborted login (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<userC>, method=PLAIN, rip=35.9.37.164, lip=35.9.37.190, TLS ..... /var/log/messages: Sep 2 08:25:04 hill dovecot-auth: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_permit.so found Sep 2 08:25:04 hill dovecot-auth: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_login_access.so found Sep 2 08:25:05 hill dovecot-auth: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_nologin.so found Sep 2 08:25:10 hill dovecot-auth: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_unix.so found Sep 2 08:25:11 hill dovecot-auth: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_unix.so found Sep 2 08:25:20 hill dovecot-auth: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_opieaccess.so found Sep 2 08:25:20 hill dovecot-auth: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_opie.so found Sep 2 08:25:51 hill kernel: Sep 2 08:25:51 hill last message repeated 12 times Sep 2 08:27:52 hill kernel: Sep 2 08:27:52 hill last message repeated 37 times Sep 2 08:38:01 hill kernel: Sep 2 08:38:01 hill last message repeated 144 times Sep 2 08:48:06 hill kernel: Sep 2 08:48:06 hill last message repeated 129 times Sep 2 08:53:36 hill kernel: Sep 2 08:52:51 hill last message repeated 51 times

Hi, I'm using the zlib plugin with dovecot 1.1.2 (on Centos 4.5, x86, ext3) and some bzip2 (version 1.0.2) compressed mail files are causing the following error to show in the logs when I click on the folder in outlook express.

[Dovecot] sieve plugin
by Андрей 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

I try to cinfigure dovecot run sieve scripts on incoming mail. In my dovecot.conf: <...> protocol lda { # Address to use when sending rejection mails. postmaster_address = root(a)vpcit.ru # Hostname to use in various parts of sent mails, eg. in Message-Id. # Default is the system's real hostname. hostname = vpcit.ru # Support for dynamically loadable plugins. mail_plugins is a space separated # list of plugins to load. #mail_plugins = mail_plugin_dir = /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda # Binary to use for sending mails. #sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail # UNIX socket path to master authentication server to find users. auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master # Enabling Sieve plugin for server-side mail filtering mail_plugins = cmusieve } <...> plugin { sieve = /var/mail/%d/%1n/%n/.dovecot.sieve } Then i set experiments on my maildir. In /var/mail/vpcit.ru/d/dukenukem i created script .dovecot.sieve: require "fileinto"; if header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "sieve check" { fileinto "Trash"; stop; } Permissions on /var/mail/vpcit.ru/d/dukenukem are: drwx------ 5000 mail So script should put every message that has "sieve check" subject into Trash folder. 1) Trash folder isn't created, should i create it manually? 2) Even when i create Trash folder and make 777 permissions to maildir, nothing happens (message is dropped into inbox dir) 3) Should i configure my Kontact (KMail) e-mail client some way? 4) What i've done incorrect? The mail system works fine at the moment for receive and send, trouble only with sieve scripting. Yours faithfully, Andrey.

[Dovecot] question about OpenSSL with DC
by Stewart Dean 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

IBM recently changed both its delivery package for OpenSSL and the locations it put things. Luckily, I have a second machine other than my mail server that I can test things on and DC 1.0.15 seems to be be running OK (thus I got all the configure/compilation tweaks right), but.....is there anyway to check the DC binaries to determine where it's getting its OpenSSl binaries and libraries (needed at runtime)? -- ==== Stewart Dean, Unix System Admin, Henderson Computer Resources Center of Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, New York 12504 sdean(a)bard.edu voice: 845-758-7475, fax: 845-758-7035

[Dovecot] Virtual users, postfix and dovecot deliver LDA
by Petri Asikainen 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

Hi, I have question about how to setup ldap-lookups in dovecot. I have done my homework by googling and reading documention and sample configuration files. But cant resolve this issue. Background: I have setup postfix and dovecot. Postix is configured to ldap alias maps and is delivering mails to /var/spool/vmail/username/Maildir correctly . Username is ldap attribute sAMAccountName from active directory. Goal: To use dovecots sieve plugin I have to setup postfix to use dovecots deliver. Changed postfix main.cf to virtual_transport = dovecot and master.cf to include lines: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:mail argv=/usr/lib/dovecot/lda/deliver -d ${recipient} Problem is that mail get delivered to /var/spool/vmail/users.email@address , not folder named as ldap attribute sAMAccountNameas it should. The question is: How I can configure deliver to do map email address to ldap attribute sAMAccountName? Second question is can I use ldap groups as distribution lists whit deliver? Dovecot version is 1.1.2 and postfix 2.5.1 Cheers, Petri

[Dovecot] Read-only FS

Hi all, Imagine an NFS mounted read-only file system containing directories full of plain mboxes. Any recommendations on how to approach the access with dovecot? I believe all NFS recommended options apply, how about index/cache files though? Can I switch them off deliberately for good? Performance degradation is not an issue.

[Dovecot] Autocreating INBOX only

I would like deliver not to automatically create subfolders for mails addressed to user+some_strange_name(a)domain.com, but nevertheless automatically create INBOX for new users. I'm not sure whether a new option like -M or -m -m would be appropriate, i.e., whether anyone needs the current -m behaviour. It looks to me like one would need to change mailbox_open_or_create_synced() if (box != NULL || no_mailbox_autocreate) return box; to something like (assuming an enum mailbox_autocreate {_never,_inbox,_always} if (box != NULL) return box; if (mailbox_autocreate == mailbox_autocreate_never || strcasecmp (mailbox, "INBOX") != 0) return NULL;

Re: [Dovecot] usernames with/without domain - my solution

We do it the same and it works fine, however we do it by inbound port (because we're behind some loadbalancers that can do port translation. We create a port -> domain mapping table and then you can just do the join with "where port = '%a'" (dovecot 1.1 only). Seems a little neater than the per-ip solution if you're in a loadbalanced environment. I don't see why you need the group by or having statements (assuming you have normalized tables).

[Dovecot] How do I move delete messages to Trash?
by Robert S 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

I've recently replaced courier-imap with dovecot - mainly for performance benefits. All of my users in the office use Outlook Express. It appears that dovecot has no facility to move deleted messages to a Trash folder - where they can be removed after a specified time with a cronjob. Other mail clients seem to have an option to specify a Trash folder. I see that there's a deleted-to-trash plugin at http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/deleted-to-trash but I've got no idea as to how I'd implement this. Could somebody please give me some pointers? I realise that OE might not be the best mail client for implementing IMAP but that's what everyone in the office uses!

[Dovecot] usernames with/without domain - my solution
by Ian B 01 Sep '08

01 Sep '08

My existing pop3/imap environment is courier imap + vpopmail + qmail with MySQL backend. I'm looking at migrating this to Dovecot. Currently I have multiple instances of Courier bound to different loopback IPs (the IPs correspond with the virtual IPs on a server load balancer). When a user authenticates they don't have to specify a domain - if they don't, Courier will use a 'default' domain (defined in the Courier config for that instance). Moving to Dovecot I want to avoid having to running an instance of Dovecot listening on each loopback IP, but still handle usernames that may not have the domain component. I wasn't able to find any examples showing how to achieve this exactly, so came up with the following solution: 1. create a new 2 column SQL table: 'domain', 'IP' - this allows me to map between the local Dovecot IP and the 'default' domain 2. create a (rather ugly looking) sql query that combines data from both the vpopmail table and the new table The SQL query is as follows: SELECT IF('%d' = '',dovecot.domain,'%d') AS authdomain, CONCAT(pw_name, '@', pw_domain) AS user, pw_passwd AS password, pw_dir AS userdb_home, 89 AS userdb_uid, 89 AS userdb_gid FROM vpopmail, dovecot_authmap AS dovecot WHERE pw_name = '%n' AND dovecot.local_ip = SUBSTRING_INDEX('%l', ':', -1) GROUP BY pw_domain HAVING pw_domain = authdomain NOTE: I'm prefetching userdb info This works, however I'd like to know what others think of this approach, and whether there is a better way to achieve what I require.

[Dovecot] GETQUOTAROOT (part 2)
by Patrick Medina 31 Aug '08

31 Aug '08

Hello, I'm a recent convert to dovecot from courier-imap and the performance has certainly improved. I'm running the vanilla 1.0.7 version that came with the CentOS 5.2 x86_64 distro. I've come across a similar problem that was posted by Ralf Hildebrandt earlier this year under the same subject, but that thread just seems to have died off. I'm also using per- user maildirsize files (originally run under courier-imap) but these are not being read/enforced/updated for some users. After some testing with these users, the problem seems to be related to the size of the maildirsize file itself. A file size greater than 5119 bytes results in no quota for the INBOX of the user, and the file seems to be ignored entirely by dovecot. I guess the solution to this is to just copy over a fresh (i.e. empty save for the limit line) maildirsize file, but I was wodering if this maildirsize size limit is some innate property of dovecot. Would not others, especially converts from courier-imap that also use maildirsize files, have this experience also? Thank you. Patrick

[Dovecot] Problem with multiple Dovecot Instances
by Manuel Maurer 31 Aug '08

31 Aug '08

Hello, first i want to say that i never used a mailing list before, so if i made something wrong do not hesitate to contact me via e-mail. I try to set up multiple Dovecot instances running at the same time. Goal is to provide IMAPS with a valid SSL Certificate on selected IP Addresses. To reach this i want to set it up as follows: 1 Dovecot Daemon listening on localhost (for webmail), providing LDA and Authentification (over MySQL) 4 Dovecot Daemons listening on each IP Address, querying the localhost daemon for authentification Just for your Information: I replaced all real data with placeholders, like the IP Address of my Server with MY_IP. Also i removed some absolutely non relevant lines from the configuration output (like settings for logging) This is my localhost config-output: # 1.1.2: /opt/dovecot/etc/dovecot.conf base_dir: /var/run/dovecot protocols: pop3 imap listen(default): 127.0.0.1:143 listen(imap): 127.0.0.1:143 listen(pop3): 127.0.0.1:110 ssl_disable: yes login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login login_chroot: no first_valid_uid: 5000 last_valid_uid: 5000 mail_location: mbox:/home/vmail/%d/%u mail_executable(default): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir(default): /opt/dovecot/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /opt/dovecot/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /opt/dovecot/lib/dovecot/pop3 auth default: mechanisms: plain login user: nobody passdb: driver: sql args: /opt/dovecot/etc/dovecot-sql.conf userdb: driver: sql args: /opt/dovecot/etc/dovecot-sql.conf socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 438 user: dovecot group: dovecot deliver and webmail works fine when i start this Daemon. Now i made a second conf-file: # 1.1.2: /opt/dovecot/etc/dovecot_main.conf base_dir: /var/run/dovecot_main protocols: pop3s imaps ssl_listen(default): MY_IP:993 ssl_listen(imap): MY_IP:993 ssl_listen(pop3): MY_IP:995 ssl_cert_file: /opt/certs/example.crt ssl_key_file: /opt/certs/example.key ssl_cipher_list: ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2 login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login login_chroot: no first_valid_uid: 5000 last_valid_uid: 5000 mail_location: mbox:/home/vmail/%d/%u mail_executable(default): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir(default): /opt/dovecot/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /opt/dovecot/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /opt/dovecot/lib/dovecot/pop3 auth extern: socket: type: connect master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 384 Starting up the second Daemon is also no problem, it listen to the correct IP, Logfiles does not show any errors. When i try to connect with Thunderbird to this Daemon using IMAPS, i got the following errors logged: Logfile for dovecot_main: dovecot: “2008-08-21 19:16:47 ”Info: imap-login: Internal login failure (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<MY_USERNAME>, method=PLAIN, rip=REMOTE_IP, lip=LOCAL_IP, TLS Logfile for dovecot_local: dovecot: Info: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=imap secured lip=LOCAL_IP rip=REMOTE_IP lport=993 rport=3107 dovecot: Info: auth(default): client out: CONT 1 dovecot: Info: auth(default): client in: CONT<hidden> dovecot: Info: auth-worker(default): sql(MY_EMAIL,REMOTE_IP): query: SELECT email AS user, NULL AS password, 1 AS nopassword, '/home/vmail/MY_DOMAIN/MY_USERNAME' AS userdb_home, 'mbox:/home/vmail/MY_DOMAIN/MY_USERNAME' AS userdb_mail, 5000 AS userdb_uid, 5000 AS userdb_gid FROM users WHERE email = 'MY_EMAIL' AND password = MD5('MY_PASSWORD') AND locked = 0 AND inactive = 0 dovecot: Info: auth(default): client out: OK 1 user=MY_EMAIL dovecot: Info: auth(default): master in: REQUEST 1 5416 1 dovecot: Error: auth(default): Master requested auth for nonexisting client 5416 I understand what this error message means, when i run top during login i can see one imap-login process (running under the Daemon "main") is disappearing and coming up again a few seconds later. What is causing this behaviour? Thanks in advance. Manuel

[Dovecot] many users maildir access
by VK 31 Aug '08

31 Aug '08

Hi All, Is it possible when using Dovecot and MySQL to tell dovecot maildir:%h/MailDir -- Yes I know but please read on before you answer this one :-> We have users directories layer structured because of the filesystems 32k directory limit , eg: user foobar(a)example.com's home mail directory is: /mailhosts/example.com/f/fo/foo/foobar I know Dovecot takes maildir:%d/%u/MailDir but as you see this will not work, so I guess I'm after the defination of %h, is that home as in system users home, or home as is like our setup? Or, is there yet another way we could have Dovecot access the users mail, we need to ove away from our current <insert_wellknown_pop3/imap> setup as it is just to slow, and I know dovecot has a 30 fold increase on speed over it from talknig to other people, but none of them do anymore then the /domain/user setup so cant help me. Regards, Vic

[Dovecot] Input and suggestions: Mail mirror setup
by Ulf Zimmermann 31 Aug '08

31 Aug '08

Hello, everyone. To make life for our operations team easier I am looking at setting up a mail mirror of any email which gets sent from certain machines. My current ideas go along the following lines: Each machine will use the Postfix "always_bcc" option and set it to an address like mailmirror(a)mailmirror.openlane.com. On mailmirror I am looking at setting up Dovecot with public folders and a number of users, which probably will authenticate via Active Directory. I intend to create a main public folder called MailMirror and then underneath sub folders based on the sender email address in a format of like "<sender>_<domain>". Now the sub folders need to be created automatically when it doesn't exist yet. I think the best way to tie this in between Postfix and Dovecot is to use an alias in Postfix for mailmirror(a)mailmirror.openlane.com which will check if a public folder exist or not. It will create the folder and then deliver the message to the folder (maybe via safecat http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-November/026661.html) Anyone got input or suggestion about my plans?

[Dovecot] Dovecot and fake users
by Vytenis Sabaliauskas 31 Aug '08

31 Aug '08

Hi everyone, Our company has decided to make a fake POP3 (and possibly IMAP) server, which accepts any user name and password combination and shows there are no new messages. This is for the purpose that when our mail cluster passes out, we can redirect our clients to this server while we fix our mail system. This way we can prevent our users from getting errors. We are using the latest dovecot server with Ubuntu (currently), but perhaps will migrate to CentOS (if this is important) I am trying to use the following configuration for testing, but it doesn't seem to work (don't laugh :) ) -------8<------------ passdb pam { args = dovecot } userdb static { args = uid=0 gid=0 home=/var/mail/empty allow_all_users=yes } -------8<------------ cat /etc/pam.d/dovecot: ------------------- #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_permit.so ------------------- I will be very thankful for pointing the way to do this and any thoughts. P.S. Sorry for my english. -- Vytenis

[Dovecot] Distributed indexes, maildir_copy_preserve_filename, and Microsoft
by Jack Stewart 30 Aug '08

30 Aug '08

Hi, I've just completed a migration from Courier to a Dovecot 1.0.7 (patched RHE 5) which is working great, except for this weirdness of an issue that is impacting a handful of users. My question is that will turning off maildir_copy_preserve_filename help or hurt in a situation where there are multiple servers with their own local INDEX files (uidlist is shared)? The problem is that a few users on a few versions of Microsoft Mail clients are not showing a few messages. They can see the messages just fine in webmail and other, more typical, E-mail clients. I know that the right solution is to upgrade to 1.1.2 and use shared indexes. The plan is to upgrade in a month or so. In my defense, this setup was not of my making, The two things issues that might have an impact are that we have shared (NFS) maildirs on multiple servers with their own local indexes and maildir_copy_preserve_file turned on. The uidlist (CONTROL) is shared and we have sticky connections turned on in our load balancer. The vast majority of clients do not have this issue. Quite frankly I have no idea these clients are ignoring the dovecot-uidlist. Would turning off maildir_copy_preserve_filename help with this setup? Another option might be easier is to delete the users INDEX and let the clients rebuild them. Since this is only a handful of users and we are migrating to 1.1.2 anyway, my preference is to make the bare minimum of changes to help address this problem. The changes need not be perfect nor anytime more than a suggestion or preference. I just want to make things better for a little while. Many thanks in advance. ---Jack P.S. The performance improvement is amazing - anywhere from 2X to 12X depending on what metrics you are looking at. It isn't an apples to apples comparison since we upgraded the servers as well but the "old" servers are pretty powerful beasts. -- Jack Stewart jstewart(a)caltech.edu / 626-395-4690 http://www.imss.caltech.edu

[Dovecot] sieve forward/redirect to multiple addresses
by Anil 30 Aug '08

30 Aug '08

How can I do this with Sieve? I have a script like this: if header :value "ge" :comparator "i;ascii-numeric" ["X-Spam-Score"] ["25"] { discard; stop; } elsif header :value "ge" :comparator "i;ascii-numeric" ["X-Spam-Score"] ["5"] { fileinto "Junk"; stop; } else { redirect "user(a)test.com"; redirect "user(a)example.com"; keep; } Only the first redirect seems to be honored, the 2nd is not. The only other alternative I see is that I have to create an alias that contains those two addresses, and then I redirect to that alias -- but I would prefer if I can do this through sieve itself. Thanks very much, sorry this is not Dovecot question... but this is on a Dovecot mail server. :)

[Dovecot] Deliver autocreate with auto-subscribe?
by Paul Reilly 30 Aug '08

30 Aug '08

Hello, I'm using dovecot with postfix configured for address extensions, so email to me+folder(a)mydomain.com <me%2Bfolder(a)mydomain.com>, automatically is handed off to dovecot deliver, which sees there is no folder called "folder" and autocreates it. This is brilliant, as it means I can give out subject orrientated email addresses, and the mail is automatically put in the right mailbox :) I love dovecot with postfix. However, my problem is my IMAP client (roundcube and HordeIMP) does not see the newly created folder. I have to manually subscribe it in the webmail client, or I have to add the folder to the "subscriptions" file in my home dir. So my question is, can the deliver command which auto-creates this folder, also add it to the subscriptions file? It seems like it just needs another switch on the command line. http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA Is this currently possible, and if not, what code do I need to hack to make it work? Thanks Paul

[Dovecot] Sorting a folder (by THREAD) takes a long time
by Asheesh Laroia 30 Aug '08

30 Aug '08

My email workflow with Dovecot is that mail gets delivered to INBOX, where I handle it and then move it into a folder called archive. I have alpine set to use the Default sort of "THREAD" of a folder. After moving a (few) mail(s) from INBOX to archive, archive takes a long time (10-50s) to load while alpine tells me: [Sorting "archive" ... ] (I can do the IMAP traces, but I figure alpine's terminology is going to be so similar to IMAP terminology that it should be straightforward enough for Timo to know what I'm talking about.) I don't actually know enough about Dovecot to say for sure what makes this slow, but maybe it's just indexes not being updated? What might be making this slow, and what hope is there for it being fast? (-: It seems like the really nice thing to do would be, after the save, in the background examine the archive folder and update whatever caches need to be updated. The more work that happens while I'm not waiting, the happier I'll be! (Same goes for my mom, and the other less-technical users of Dovecot.) Is this the kind of thing I could write a plugin for...? -- Asheesh. -- It seems to make an auto driver mad if he misses you.

[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.1.2

Hello, I upgraded dovecot to 1.1.2 this weekend and i get those errors: grep dovecot /var/log/net/maillog |grep Panic | cut -d " " -f 11-100| sort | uniq -c | sort -rn 7547 file index-sync.c: line 39: assertion failed: (seq_range_exists(&ibox->recent_flags, uid)) 89 file index-mail.c: line 1091: assertion failed: (! mail->data.destroying_stream) 18 file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 590: assertion failed: (mails[idx].from_offset == start_offset) 5 file ostream-file.c: line 533: assertion failed: ((size_t)ret == total_size || !fstream->file) 5 file mbox-lock.c: line 675: assertion failed: (lock_type == F_RDLCK || mbox->mbox_lock_type != F_RDLCK) 1 file message-parser.c: line 684: assertion failed: (ctx->part->physical_pos >= ctx->input->v_offset) My setup is this: 3 servers, all Solaris, running dovecot, share home directiories via NFS, mbox format mailboxes in home directories. Indexes are separate in every server, not shared via NFS. About 20 000 users total. When old indexes (1.0.15) were present, mailboxes with UID validity problems did not fix themselves, but after i removed index directories in all machines, seems like it started to repair uid validity problems. The first panic seems to be tied to UID validity problems. Some locking problems may be, because i renamed index directory and created new while dovecot was running. -- Lauri Jesmin <lauri.jesmin(a)ut.ee> Tartu Ülikool

[Dovecot] Proxy logging destuser
by Paul Gamble - MWEB 30 Aug '08

30 Aug '08

Hi All My first post to the list, so "hello world"! Having searched the list archives and the wiki for an answer to this, I don't think it is possible. However, let me ask nonetheless... Is it possible for a Dovecot proxy's login process (IMAP and POP3) to include the "destuser", i.e. the uid used to authenticate to the backend IMAP/POP3 server, in its logging? "%u" gives me the uid provided by the client of course, but it would useful for my purposes to catch the "destuser" in the same log line. The only way to get the proxy to log "destuser" at all, as far as I can figure out, is to enable "auth debug" - not something I want to do in a production environment.

[Dovecot] Wishlist: TLS,SSL cipher in a variable.
by R A 30 Aug '08

30 Aug '08

Hello again. Just thought I'd ask and see if it would be possible to get this sometime in the future: TLS and SSL connection information in a variable like %c today, but more exhaustive. For example I can from postfix get a log like: postfix/smtpd[432]: Anonymous TLS connection established from xxxxxx: TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits) This would be nice to see if you have a fairly low permissive level, to identify potential weak clients and be able to notify these to start with while still allowing connections. -Roger

[Dovecot] Problem with squirrelmail and dovecot 1.1
by Gerhard Wiesinger 30 Aug '08

30 Aug '08

Hello! Has noone any idea? Ciao, Gerhard -- http://www.wiesinger.com/ -------------------------------------------------------- Hello! I'm running squirrelmail 1.4.8 (I know this is not the latest version) and know I'm having troubles with: 1.) Folder list view 2.) Save to sent or Drafts folder. Configuration worked well. I think it has to do with the upgrade from dovecot 1.0 to 1.1 and the LIST command. Thunderbird/alpine work well. Commands from rawlog are: A002 LIST "" "~/Mail/Drafts" A002 OK List completed. or A002 LIST "" "~/Mail/sent" A003 CREATE "~/Mail/sent" A002 OK List completed. A003 NO Mailbox exists. Has something changed in the folder behaviour of dovecot from 1.0 to 1.1? If you need more information please let me know it. Any ideas? Thnx. Ciao, Gerhard -- http://www.wiesinger.com/

[Dovecot] maildir, zlib and mtime/internal date
by Richard Platel 29 Aug '08

29 Aug '08

On the wiki: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Zlib I think there should be a step 5.0. along the lines of "get and remember the original message file's mtime" And a step 5.4 like "Using the touch command or some other method, set the now compressed message's mtime back to the mtime of the original message file." To preserve the message's internal time in case the indices ever get rebuilt. Does this sound right?

[Dovecot] Sieve fileinto a subfolder fails
by Rich McAllister 29 Aug '08

29 Aug '08

I'm using Dovecot 1.0.10 on Ubuntu 8.04, using the packages from the distro; exim4 is my MTA and it's configured according to the instructions in the wiki, everything is working fine for delivery into the Maildir INBOX via Dovecot's LDA and reading mail via IMAP using Thunderbird. My habit on previous mail systems was to create a Lists folder and subfolders under Lists for each mailing list I subscribe to. I tried to use Dovecot sieve to sort mail into the folders with sieve filters like require "fileinto"; if header :contains "Subject" "[NCCC]" { fileinto "Lists/NCCC"; } else { keep; } I created Lists/NCCC via Thunderbird (so I could set the "check this folder for new mail property") but when Dovecot tries to deliver into the folder, I get the log message msgid=<...>: Couldn't open mailbox Lists/NCCC: Invalid mailbox name If I use just fileinto "NCCC"; it works fine, going into a NCCC folder not in a subfolder as expected. Is there some other syntax for specifying folder/subfolder names in Dovecot sieve, or do I just have to live with the folders all at the top level? Rich dovecot -n shows: # 1.0.10: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:/arda/export/mail/%u/Maildir auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd

[Dovecot] Sieve fileinto a subfolder fails -- more info, possible workaround
by Rich McAllister 29 Aug '08

29 Aug '08

After looking at the way Maildir represents subfolders, I changed the sieve line from fileinto "Lists/NCCC"; to fileinto "Lists.NCCC"; and now it files into the NCCC subfolder of Lists as I wanted. I'm not sure whether this is the expected behavior or just an accident that plugging that string into the file name happens to result in the right name. I haven't tried, but if it's just passing the fileinto argument along with minimal inspection, I'm afraid the answer might be use "Lists/NCCC" if mail is in mbox format but "Lists.NCCC" if mail is in Maildirs, and it certainly seems that users editing their sieve scripts shouldn't have to know that. Rich dovecot -n shows: # 1.0.10: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:/arda/export/mail/%u/Maildir auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd

Since the install of the untangles i have been plagued by Thunderbird Errors while trying to POP email. The error says "RETR" command failed. If the user logs into the webmail (Squirrelmail) on the mail server and cleans out his inbox by deleting all existing mail, T-Bird starts operating again.

Hi! Do you guys/girls (whichever you prefer) know if it's possible (i.e. in some semitransparent/easy way) to incorporate an online backup system? If the mail is older than a set amount of days it gets compressed. I want my mail storage size to shrink but on the other hand I want to keep the mails I get and have them easily readable :) I'm thinking of symlinks and some kind of gzip fuse filesystem...

[Dovecot] LDA qmail - vpopmail
by Ron Culler 28 Aug '08

I am trying to setup LDA with qmail/vpopmail to use the expire plugin and I am getting errors about auth-master (Can't connect to auth server at /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/auth-master: No such file or directory) The auth default section of the dovecot.conf is set to use vpopmail(mysql) and that works great for IMAP access. Can anyone share a config for using the expire plugin with qmail/vpopmail? I was wanting to put the preline commands in the .qmail-default files on a per-domain basis. /home/vpopmail/domains/domain1.com/.qmail-default But to start I tried just putting it into the .qmail file for an individual user.

[Dovecot] Dovecot IMAP INBOX Namespace iPhone
by Andrew Goldschmidt 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Hi Guys, Our ISP who is hosting our email, recently moved our domain's email onto a new mail server, which is apparently running Dovecot, and has support for IMAP. * OK Dovecot ready. Most of the email clients have not had a problem moving from the old server to the new server. But some have! Including the iPhone users. The problem is that the INBOX is not directly accessible through the email client. (The following work perfectly: Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird - even though the INBOX is NOT specifically returned in the list of subscribed folders, it is there, with emails in it) 006 SELECT INBOX * FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft $Forwarded $MDNSent Junk NonJunk) * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Seen \Draft $Forwarded $MDNSent Junk NonJunk \*)] Flags permitted. * 49 EXISTS * 0 RECENT * OK [UIDVALIDITY 1211291159] UIDs valid * OK [UIDNEXT 458] Predicted next UID 006 OK [READ-WRITE] Select completed. The iPhone simply refuses to allow access into the INBOX, but children folders work 100%. http://img395.imageshack.us/img395/891/img0003ui8.png I think that it has something to do with this: 006 LIST "" "*" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Junk E-mail" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Deleted Items" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Drafts" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "Sent" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Work" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.Friends" 006 OK List completed. There is NO INBOX specifically returned ... Zimbra Desktop Client refuses to even load any messages from the Inbox. Is this a problem at all? Is this something that my ISP should be able to fix? Is this a problem that can be fixed? http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/6793/thunderbirdmi8.jpg http://img365.imageshack.us/img365/1165/outlookul6.jpg Any ideas ??? Andrew

[Dovecot] migrating from specialized qpopper
by Cruzio Research 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

I'm hoping to migrate to dovecot from qpopper, with the eventual goal of enabling IMAP. However, my qpopper installation is fairly specialized, so I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone could get me headed down the best path. Here's the situation. I'm running FreeBSD and have a virtual domains setup with an extremely hacked LDA to do delivery to mailboxes within hashed directories under each virtual domain. Each domain also has a separate password file. This is NOT any virtual domain setup that you'd be familiar with, as it is an in-house creation that is about 9 years old now. I have 8000 users utilizing mailboxes on these domains, so having them reconfigure to use realms/domains in their login isn't really an option. With qpopper, we run it from inetd and use hosts.allow to call each instance with special information about the password file location, etc, like this: popper: ALL : twist (/pathto/bin/popper -d -s -T 300 -h %H -p /pathto/www.%H/passwd -x /pathto/www.%H/spool) This allows us to insert the domain (%H) based on what hostname the user is connecting to and change parameters based on that. Would their be any easy way to do this with dovecot? Thanks in advance for your help. Mark

[Dovecot] Problem with namespaces
by Toms Trankalis (SZ) 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Hi, I'm trying to create Shared folder with subfolders "SPAM" and "NOT_Spam". Configuration: namespace public { separator = / prefix = Shared/ location = maildir:/vmail/%Ld/Shared:INDEX=/vmail/%Ld/%Ln/Shared hidden = no } Result I get (is exactly what I want): Inbox Drafts Sent Trash Shared --NOT_Spam --SPAM I can select SPAM and NOT_Spam, delete messages etc, but when I select "Shared", it shows: "Mailbox doesn't exist: Shared." As a client I used OE and Thunderbird. How to get rid of that message? I'm running latest Dovecot release 1.1.2 /Tom

[Dovecot] Dovecot and "deliver" disagree on character encodings
by Björn Persson 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Hi, I have a problem where Dovecot and its LDA seem to disagree on what character encoding should be used in Maildir names. I use Dovecot and Postfix on a Debian server. Mail is delivered by Dovecot LDA (called from .forward) and sorted according to a Sieve script into a number of Maildir folders in my home directory. Dovecot serves the mail over IMAP and I read it in Kmail. I originally created the mail folders with Kmail, and Dovecot created the directories with their names encoded in modified UTF-7, like in IMAP. The Sieve script is encoded in UTF-8, in accordance with RFC 3028. When the Sieve script specifies a mail folder with non-English letters in the name, the LDA doesn't put the messages in the corresponding modified-UTF-7-encoded directory. Instead it creates a new directory with the same name but encoded in UTF-8. That directory doesn't show up as a mail folder in Kmail, presumably because Dovecot considers the UTF-8-encoded name invalid. The Dovecot I got with Debian isn't exactly the most recent version. I searched for "Maildir", "deliver" and "Sieve" in the changelog, and didn't find anything about this. Should I consider upgrading anyway, abandoning the Debian package? Here are the details: Debian Etch (4.0) Dovecot 1.0.rc15 I don't know how to find out the version number of the Sieve plugin but it's the one that came with Dovecot in the Debian package. CPU: Intel Pentium filesystem: ext3 marvin:~# dovecot -n # /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imap listen: [::] ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/certs/mail.rombobeorn.se.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/private/mail.rombobeorn.se.key ssl_cipher_list: <too long, and can't possibly be relevant> login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir maildir_copy_with_hardlinks: yes imap_client_workarounds: auth default: mechanisms: digest-md5 user: dovecot-auth passdb: driver: passwd-file args: /etc/dovecot/passwd userdb: driver: passwd socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix master: beorn@marvin:~$ cat .forward | "/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -c /etc/dovecot/deliver.conf" beorn@marvin:~$ cat /etc/dovecot/deliver.conf protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster(a)xn--rombobjrn-67a.se mail_plugins = cmusieve } Apart from this problem, thanks for a very good IMAP server!

[Dovecot] multiple password schemes and sql?
by R A 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Hello all. Just about to migrate from courier to dovecot, and figured I would as well try and get this working so I could use non plaintext mechanisms as well. I would like to offer at least: plain login digest-md5 cram-md5 and maybe more Everything works but this and have a testdb in sql with passwords like userid, password But get "Password query returned multiple matches" which indicates it doesnt try using any prefix and just get a hit on all "passwords" for that user. Is there any variable I can use in the sql query to use an extra field that contains the password type? plain and login should be stored in some crypted form, probably as md5 or sha256 hashes. Thankful for any insight into this...

[Dovecot] syncml with server push email
by Harondel J. Sibble 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Any recommendations for server push email using syncml and dovecot? I am familiar with Funambol for syncing pim info, but not used it for email. Are there any recommended opensource or commercial syncml servers that are known to integrate nicely with Dovecot 1.x? Googling hasn't really turned up much in the way of useful info. To mix it up a little, I was using Funambol for the Pim stuff, but ran into a bunch of issues and switched to eGroupWare which has it's own syncml ability which works quite nicely with my pda. I stopped using Funambol as the server didn't properly deal with the conversion from vcal to ical and as a result appointments synced on the pda end, always ended up 8 hours early :-( This was going from ThunderBird to Windows Mobile, so I am hoping to avoid this happening again. -- Harondel J.

[Dovecot] Multiple network interface question
by Mike Henry 28 Aug '08

28 Aug '08

Hi all, Sorry if this question has been posted before. I have dug through the archives but haven't found any relevant answers to this question. I am running Dovecot on a server that serves a number of (virtual) domains each with a number of (virtual) users. To read mail I am providing a webmail client and have configured HTTPS connections using reverse DNS so that each domain has its own IP address and that each IP address gets mapped to a different virtual host. Each virtual host presents and HTTPS connection particular to their own domain using the SSL certificate for that domain so that each user only sees his or her own domain throughout. Is it possible to configure Dovecot so that mail-clients like Thunderbird or Outlook can connect via the default port using their own domain (maybe also using reverse DNS) and be presented with an SSL connection particular to that domain (i.e. using that domains certificate)? Any comments welcome. Thanks in advance, -Mike

Thx for your long post! ^_^ I understood that it was something like .<prefix><separator>folder1<separator>folder2 But, from my tests, it seems not to work as expected... At least not with thunderbird. By default, Tbird has "allow server to override namespaces" prefix=INBOX. and separator=. => no prefix and Trash system not working. prefix= and separator=. => INBOX. prefix (from tbird) and Trash system working. '/' in prefix and separator seems to be ignored (converted to '.'). I guess I will leave it to prefix= and separator=. but one user who uses apple mail complained about some prefix problems... Thx, JD

[Dovecot] unclear alias behaviour
by andel 26 Aug '08

26 Aug '08

Hi all In /etc/aliases I have set up an alias for "root" pointing to "david" which is a unix account. Other email accounts are virtual dovecot accounts, one of them is "andel". They all work fine using /etc/postfix/virtual when used with the domain name which is defined in /etc/postfix/virtual.domains. But the alias "david andel" in /etc/postfix/virtual does work only when sending to "david(a)domain.com" but not for the local mails sent to "root". And then there is another behaviour I don't understand. In my virtual mail folder /srv/vmail/domain.com dovecot made a new directory structure "david" which I didn't intend, for postfix should rewrite it to "andel". Where is the error? Thanks for any hints, David

[Dovecot] LOCALSTATEDIR

Hi I'm doing a network install of Dovecot 1.1.2. All is fine apart from a little annoying mistake I've found: I do this: > ./configure --prefix=/appli/tools_Linux/dovecot/1.1.2 --localstatedir=/var && make && make install however, since the --localstatedir is equal to a default value, it is still being constructed as "PREFIX/var" for some reason and in effect produces binary with following strings being built-in: > strings dovecot | grep var /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/lib/dovecot /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/run/dovecot /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/lib/dovecot/ssl-parameters.dat /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/lib/dovecot/ssl-parameters.dat var-expand.c var_expand_table_build So, the question is, is this a bug or my understanding wrong? I just need a network install, using local /var directiories for runtime data. Imagine that I have no write permissions to the installation (--prefix) folder. If you can reproduce it, this should be it, if you can't let me know to email you all the environment details.

[Dovecot] Override config in deliver command line
by dovecot＠iotti.biz 25 Aug '08

25 Aug '08

Hi all In dovecot deliver LDA, is there a way to override some configuration settings for particular users? Tha full story is: I have a simple postfix/dovecot setup. No virtual users, delivery is done in /home/mail/%u. For a specific user, I would like to deliver to a maildir. Since mail_location is not explicitly configured, I simply created ~/Maildir for that user, relying on the default automatic mailbox location procedure used by dovecot. But I would like to be able to override this setting: for example if I wanted to use a name different from Maildir, this trick would not be sufficient. So it would be nice to have some way to change mail_location (and why not, other config parameters) only for particular users (and for me, doing this on the command line would be good: something like Postfix where you can override config parameters simply writing the new settings in master.cf on the daemon's command line). I noticed the -c command line switch, but I would prefer not to have entirely different configuration files for my users, where a single change must be manually propagated on all the files. I use dovecot-1.0.15 on CentOS5. Maybe this question can be read as a feature request too. Thanks Luigi

[Dovecot] Errors with dovecot 1.1.2
by Lauri Jesmin 25 Aug '08

25 Aug '08

Hello, i upgraded dovecot to 1.1.2 this weekend and i get those errors: grep dovecot /var/log/net/maillog |grep Panic | cut -d " " -f 11-100| sort | uniq -c | sort -rn 7368 file index-sync.c: line 39: assertion failed: (seq_range_exists(&ibox->recent_flags, uid)) 71 file index-mail.c: line 1091: assertion failed: (! mail->data.destroying_stream) 18 file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 590: assertion failed: (mails[idx].from_offset == start_offset) 5 file mbox-lock.c: line 675: assertion failed: (lock_type == F_RDLCK || mbox->mbox_lock_type != F_RDLCK) 3 file ostream-file.c: line 533: assertion failed: ((size_t)ret == total_size || !fstream->file) My setup is this: 3 servers, all Solaris, running dovecot, share home directiories via NFS, mbox format mailboxes in home directories. Indexes are separate in every server, not shared via NFS. About 20 000 users total. When old indexes (1.0.15) were present, mailboxes with UID validity problems did not fix themselves, but after i removed index directories in all machines, seems like it started to repair uid validity problems. The first panic seems to be tied to UID validity problems. Some locking problems may be, because i renamed index directory and created new while dovecot was running. -- Lauri Jesmin <lauri.jesmin(a)ut.ee> Tartu Ülikool

[Dovecot] namespaces...
by John Doe 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

Hi, I am new to dovecot and I am a bit confused with how namespaces/prefixes/separators are handled by the clients and dovecot... I tried to understand the desciption from the conf file but without success. With each conf I create the following path /f1/f2 on the client (thunderbird) and get the following on the dovecot server: PREFIX= and separator=/ => .INBOX.f1.f2 + .INBOXTrash PREFIX=INBOX/ and separator=/ => .f1.f2 and no Trash PREFIX=INBOX. and separator=. => .f1.f2 and no Trash Could someone point me to some IMAP for dummy web page...? ;D Or, what is the best conf able to handle most clients? Thx, JD

[Dovecot] Distributed indexes, maildir_copy_preserve_filename, and Microsoft
by Jack Stewart 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

Hi, I've just completed a migration from Courier to a Dovecot 1.0.7 (patched RHE 5) which is working great, except for this weirdness of an issue that is impacting a handful of users. My question is that will turning off maildir_copy_preserve_filename help or hurt in a situation where there are multiple servers with their own local INDEX files (uidlist is shared)? The problem is that a few users on a few versions of Microsoft Mail clients are not showing a few messages. They can see the messages just fine in webmail and other, more typical, E-mail clients. I know that the right solution is to upgrade to 1.1.2 and use shared indexes. The plan is to upgrade in a month or so. In my defense, this setup was not of my making, The two things issues that might have an impact are that we have shared (NFS) maildirs on multiple servers with their own local indexes and maildir_copy_preserve_file turned on. The uidlist (CONTROL) is shared and we have sticky connections turned on in our load balancer. The vast majority of clients do not have this issue. Quite frankly I have no idea these clients are ignoring the dovecot-uidlist. Would turning off maildir_copy_preserve_filename help with this setup? Another option might be easier is to delete the users INDEX and let the clients rebuild them. Since this is only a handful of users and we are migrating to 1.1.2 anyway, my preference is to make the bare minimum of changes to help address this problem. The changes need not be perfect nor anytime more than a suggestion or preference. I just want to make things better for a little while. Many thanks in advance. ---Jack P.S. The performance improvement is amazing - anywhere from 2X to 12X depending on what metrics you are looking at. It isn't an apples to apples comparison since we upgraded the servers as well but the "old" servers are pretty powerful beasts. -- Jack Stewart jstewart(a)caltech.edu / 626-395-4690 http://www.imss.caltech.edu

[Dovecot] Option to evaluate IMAP prefixes relative to $HOME, rather than the IMAP root?
by David McBride 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

Greetings, Is there a mechanism (or relatively small source-code change) which would cause Dovecot to evaluate IMAP prefixes relative to $HOME rather than the configured IMAP root? * * * Background: We're currently migrating from a WU-IMAP mailserver configuration which stores user mail in a global NFS-exported $HOME, and we've run into well-known issues handling client-specified IMAP prefixes. If a user specifies an IMAP prefix, Dovecot evaluates the path given relative to the IMAP root path specified in mail_location, rather than resolving it relative to the user's home directory as our old WU-IMAP installation would do. (For example: if a user has been keeping their mail in $HOME/foobar, and mail_location's folder path is set to %h/mail, then when that user comes to retrieve their mail with an IMAP prefix set to "~/foobar", then Dovecot will attempt to return the contents of the folder $HOME/mail/~/foobar -- which doesn't exist -- rather than $HOME/foobar.) At the moment, we have several hidden namespaces set up to support various common user-side variations -- "mail/", "Mail/", "~/Mail/", etc. -- each with a different custom mail_location string. Whilst this works for these common cases, it's fairly ugly, and results in extra empty directories appearing in users' $HOME. If there was some mechanism for telling Dovecot to evaluate IMAP prefixes relative to $HOME rather than the mail folder root specified in mail_location, that would provide us with a much neater and general-purpose solution. (I was hoping that setting full_filesystem_access=yes would do this, but it only relaxes the normal access permissions.) Cheers, David -- David McBride <dwm(a)tastycake.net>

[Dovecot] assertion failed
by CJ Keist 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

I haven't heard anything on this bug. Is this a bug? I'm using dovecot 1.1.2 with the following patch applied: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/d674c05d725d Another section from my logs. I know the backtrace is just numbers, let me know how to compile to get more useful information if you need it. So far no one is beating down my door, so I don't think users are seeing any ill effects. But I would sleep better knowing why it's happening.

Hello, I'm trying to configure the dovecot-antispam plugin. Now I've run into a problem: whenever I try to move/copy a message in/from the spam mailbox, Thunderbird (and also Sylpheed, haven't tried anything else) says: The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: Failed to read mail beginning. and in the logs I get: dovecot: Aug 07 10:41:23 Error: IMAP(username): Next message unexpectedly lost from 337928 dovecot: Aug 07 10:41:23 Error: IMAP(username): Next message unexpectedly lost from 337928 The message is not moved/copied.

[Dovecot] dovecot panic after upgrade 1.0.15 to 1.1.2
by Eric Rostetter 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

I recently upgraded dovecot from 1.0.15 to 1.1.2 and since then I am getting the following types of things in the logs: Aug 21 17:23:13 mail1 dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<myuser>, method=PLAIN, rip=172.16.78.20, lip=172.16.78.22 Aug 21 17:24:01 mail1 dovecot: Panic: IMAP(myuser): file index-sync.c: line 39 (index_mailbox_set_recent_uid): assertion failed: (seq_range_exists(&ibox->recent_flags, uid)) Aug 21 17:24:01 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(myuser): Raw backtrace: imap [0x80d25bb] -> imap [0x80d2def] -> imap [0x80d2719] -> imap [0x809edb8] -> imap(index_mailbox_set_recent_seq+0x46) [0x809ee06] -> imap [0x8083183] -> imap [0x8083621] -> imap [0x8083c3c] -> imap(mbox_sync+0x25) [0x80840d5] -> imap [0x807b993] -> imap(mail_index_transaction_commit+0x51) [0x80aee31] -> imap(index_transaction_commit+0x52) [0x809fe32] -> imap(mailbox_transaction_commit_get_uids+0x34) [0x80a2874] -> imap(cmd_copy+0x16a) [0x805b19a] -> imap [0x806068e] -> imap [0x8060536] -> imap [0x80606ea] -> imap [0x8060791] -> imap(client_input+0x67) [0x8060897] -> imap(io_loop_handler_run+0x112) [0x80daa92] -> imap(io_loop_run+0x2f) [0x80d9e4f] -> imap(main+0x61) [0x8068d81] -> /lib/tls/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xda) [0x12679a] -> imap(__fxstat64+0x6d) [0x8059ed1] Did I miss something in the upgrade process, or is this a bug that has yet to be fixed? This seems to be happening to many various users for various reasons. But I can verify for Andreas M. Kirchwitz who noted the other day that one of the easiest way to produce it seems to be "saving" or "moving" between folders in (Al)Pine... If Timo wants, I can send the dovecot.(index|index.cache|index.log) files for when this happens, but I would need to know what to send (both the folder being moved from and folder being moved to, or just one of them) and anything else needed, and the email to send them to. Sending the folder itself might be problematic, but might be possible. If we can't get this resolved by early next week, I might have to downgrade back to the previous version... -- Eric Rostetter The Department of Physics The University of Texas at Austin Go Longhorns!

[Dovecot] Simplest (static?) build & config for loopback access?
by FZiegler 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

I am installing Dovecot for the sole purpose of maintaining a local mail store that I could 1) manage with any client; 2) keep duplicated on several machines, using Unison; 3) hopefully, index using Spotlight (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mh-e.user/1308 ...). In particular, I have no intention to allow connections from anywhere but localhost. I've followed the instructions at http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/Rootless and it all seems to work quite well, but I'm not sure about 3 things: 1) Initially Dovecot would not respond to Thunderbird ("Could not connect to server localhost; the connection was refused"). Eventually, a "Trying ::1..." in the telnet log (see below) made me find hidden pref "network.dns.disableIPv6" and set it to FALSE. Which solves the problem -- but is this really needed, or have I done something wrong? 2) The Dovecot I built on OS X 10.4 appears to work fine when copied on another Mac running 10.5. Now, I'd love to avoid installing developer tools on both machines, but I fear this an illusion (some libraries are changing under us, e.g. libiconv.2.2.0.dylib --> libiconv.2.4.0.dylib). Does this mean I should try a static build? If so, what are the flags and how do I go about specifying a minimal set of libraries to include for my purposes? 3) Probably offtopic here, but has anyone seen a better way to index mail in Spotlight than just as plain text? E.g. to hook up Apple's importer (Mail.mdimporter in /System/Library/Spotlight) or Thunderbird's (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=290057) which I guess can better deal with quoted-printable and other encodings?

[Dovecot] POP3 UID file problem
by naslov naslov 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

Hello. I upgraded from RHRL4 to RHEL5 and my dovecot version changed from dovecot-0.99.11-8.EL4 to dovecot-1.0.7-2.el5. I also transferred all /home directories of users. The problem is that users have POP3 mail client set that it leaves mail on mailserver for 30 days. When they try to download messages from new server, client (Thinderbird) want to download all messages for those 30 days (he of course already has all those messages..). I suspect UID POP3 database index file format has changed.. How to "convert" dovecot 0.99 POP3 UID files to those used in newer version or how to go around that? Thanks for answering, naslov [root@mercury5 INBOX]# dovecot -n # 1.0.7: /etc/dovecot.conf protocols: imap pop3 pop3s ssl_cert_file: /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt ssl_key_file: /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key 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_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/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 auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd

[Dovecot] Quota plugin
by Thiago Monaco Papageorgiou 22 Aug '08

Hi! I have some questions about quota plugin. I have taken quota-maildir as example. What does the function maildir_quota_root_get_resources? When it is called? I have tested including some log messages, but it wasn't appears in the log file. When dovecot calls this function? It is an important function?

[Dovecot] Regarding dovecot-antispam bug!
by Mikael Jenkler 21 Aug '08

21 Aug '08

Hi All! There is a issue with dovecot-antispam and the new dovecot-1.1.x (dovecot-1.1.1) The imap server dies when sending mail, the mail goes away but it says that the imap server has crached in squirrelmail. I get the standard signal 11 crach in the dovecot loggs another question? My dspam users has the email as username somthing(a)domain.com and in dovecot.conf i need to specify the user when training, is there a w way to get the resiptient address in the dovecot.conf? i am only able to get %u ie the username ;-( Could you patch the antispam plugin to be able to take then resiptient as dspam user? ie the mail address , you can have a option in dovecot that says use resiptient address as user or something it would be great if you had time to check this out ;-) Thanks in advance

[Dovecot] Sent Date/time vs Received Date/time

I know that every message has a 'received' header, which is basically the date/time stamp of the SENDERS CLIENT - so if their system's time is off, that date/time header will be off. So, where does this 'Order Received' column in TBird get its info from? I'm guessing it is a TBird thing, like an internal index number? In my mind, there should be two primary date/time columns: Sent Date/Time = Date/time of the Client system when message was sent (this is already there as the plain 'Date' column) and Received Date/Time = Date/time the receiving SERVER DELIVERED it I can see the benefit for the third 'Client' side Date/time stamp, which is the current 'Order Received' in TBird. I'd like to see support added for grabbing the last date/time from the LDA that delivers the message, but that obviously request is for the TBird devs (or most likely an extension request), but... The main question is - is there a proper IMAP/RFC for providing/getting this date/time? -- Best regards, Charles

> I suppose the OP does not sort by date but Arrival time (this means arrival time in the mailbox). Exactly. I sort by arrival time, which in practice is the "unsorted" ordering based upon the mbox file itself. (Except I'd like to control the arbitrary "unsorted" order that I want by "resave to inbox" to handle reordering.)

[Dovecot] Dovecot & (Al)pine - resaving messages to Inbox
by Jonathan Herbach 21 Aug '08

21 Aug '08

I have a x86 Linux box running Fedora 4. Up until 2008 I was using pine 4.64 and Dovecot 0.99.x. In early 2008 I transitioned to Alpine 1.10, and didn't notice any major changes. I upgraded to Dovecot 1.0.15 this past weekend. My dovecot -n settings are at the bottom of the email. I've noticed a change since Dovecot was upgraded. I used to reorder items within my INBOX in al/pine by "saving" messages back to the INBOX, which I was connecting via IMAP . Now when I try to do it I get an error in alpine that says: [Can't copy mails inside same folder] then: [Save to folder "{localhost:143/i...r=jherbach}INBOX" FAILED] While these are alpine messages, they appear to be from the dovecot upgrade. I really miss the ability to reorder messages in my inbox since I often use it as a queue of important items. Does anybody have any ideas why I'm seeing this error message? Or better yet, how to potentially (re) configure the system to allow me to resave messages into the same folder?

[Dovecot] config file parsing, tab characters
by John Hannfield 21 Aug '08

21 Aug '08

Hello, I am using the latest dovecot 1.1.2 with postfix, and using doveco deliver command for LDA. I really love dovecot, and how it has progressed over the years. However I have noticed that if I put a TAB character in the dovecot.conf file, it sometimes does not parse the file correctlty, and complains about missing postmaster_address etc, even though they are there. So I reformated my config file, with just spaces, no tabs. I am very careful about that now. However I still seem to have a problem in some places with spaces. For example, in the LDA section: If I have 3 or 4 spaces, after the lda line in the definition, like so: #----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # LDA Settings #----------------------------------------------------------------------------- protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster(a)mydomain.com hostname = mydomain.com .... it does not work. I must have only 1 space between the end of lda and the curly bracket. Like this: #----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # LDA Settings #----------------------------------------------------------------------------- protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster(a)mydomain.com hostname = mydomain.com .... This seems very flaky. I am not certain I will always be able to check the file when making changes. So my question is: 1. Is there someway to check the validity of the dovecot.conf file. I notice dovecot -n does not print the entire config. 2. Is there any chance the code used to parse the config file, could be updated to be more robust, and to include support for tabs? Thank you. Paul

[Dovecot] How Can I Tell How Dovecot Was Installed?
by Blake Carver 21 Aug '08

21 Aug '08

I'm trying to help someone with Dovecot, and it looks like this one is a few versions behind. They say that they're not sure if it was installed Via an RPM or a source tarball. Dovecot is use MySQL. This is a RHEL5 server. There are RPMs listed as installed (rpm -qa) but I don't know how I can tell what was used to install the currently used set up. (also asking on the Postifix list) Is there something in a conf file or something that shows me how it was installed? Thanks Blake

[Dovecot] Stateful Webmail
by Michael Carter 20 Aug '08

20 Aug '08

Hello, I'm a developer on the Orbited project (http://www.orbited.org) which provides a TCPSocket interface in javascript (emulated over HTTP using ajax and comet.) This TCPSocket allows true bi-directional communication between a web browser and an arbitrary tcp server. One of the other developers pointed me to a recent dovecot thread about webmail. Sorry for the new thread (I just joined this list and couldn't reply to the old emails). Timo Sirainen wrote Wed Aug 13 23:37:11 EEST 2008: > I wrote this a while ago: http://imapwiki.org/ClientImplementation > > One thing that would be nice, that pretty much no webmail does, is to > keep a stateful connection open all the time (or at least some of the > time) instead of creating tons of short-lived connections that ask the > same stuff over and over again.

Coincidentally, we have just began work on a JavaScript IMAP client. With it, building a webmail app should be *entirely* a UI concern. The good news is that our Socket interface is very stable and is being used in production for protocols like IRC for webchat. The bad news is that none of the the Orbited developers have experience with the IMAP protocol. We are putting all of our protocol implementations in the soon-to-launch js.io project (www.js.io) As soon as we have any kind of IMAP client prototype, I'll let you know. In the meantime, would anyone be interesting in helping us develop the imap client? Its 100% pure JavaScript, and will greatly ease the development of feature-rich webmail, as a webmail deployment will become a matter of simply running Dovecot, the js.io.imap client, and an HTML gui. -Michael Carter

[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.1.2, index-sync.c, line 39, assertion
by Andreas M. Kirchwitz 20 Aug '08

Hi folks, because I accidently missed a syslog entry from previous reports, here's a new one with both syslog lines. Same problem as always when saving mail from one folder to another with Pine 4.64. Does nobody else get this when copying/moving mail between folders? The assertion refers to src/lib-storage/index/index-sync.c, line 39 (function index_mailbox_set_recent_uid). Aug 19 23:01:15 linux dovecot: Panic: IMAP(user2): file index-sync.c: line 39 (index_mailbox_set_recent_uid): assertion failed: (seq_range_exists(&ibox->recent_flags, uid)) Aug 19 23:01:15 linux dovecot: IMAP(user2): Raw backtrace: imap [0x80cf8e0] -> imap [0x80cf93a] -> imap [0x80cf26c] -> imap [0x809d11a] -> imap(index_mailbox_set_recent_seq+0x3e) [0x809d15e] -> imap(mbox_sync+0x105d) [0x80823fd] -> imap [0x807a454] -> imap(index_transaction_commit+0x4e) [0x809ddfe] -> imap(cmd_copy+0x35f) [0x805b26f] -> imap [0x805fd7c] -> imap [0x805fe25] -> imap [0x80605e5] -> imap(client_input+0x5e) [0x80607fe] -> imap(io_loop_handler_run+0x100) [0x80d7230] -> imap(io_loop_run+0x28) [0x80d63c8] -> imap(main+0x4a1) [0x8068321] -> /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe0) [0x149390] -> imap [0x805a101] Dovecot 1.1.2 is running on Fedora 8 Linux 32 Bit with all patches and custom OpenSSL 0.9.8h.

[Dovecot] dovecot performance
by Giorgenes Gelatti 20 Aug '08

20 Aug '08

Hello All, I've been studying dovecot for replacing my company's current system and I got a little worried about an aspect of the dovecot's design. I was surprised that dovecot doesn't use prefork for its mail processes, forking a new processes for each new client connection. Talking in the #dovecot channel I was gave a scenario of a system supporting ~40k users with 4 servers just fine. I wonder how well dovecot would scale if we increase this number of users by some order of magnitude like, say, 4M users. It is well known that preforking is a good pratice if you want to achieve a higher performance. When I was asked about it I readily answered: "of course it does". For my surprise later, i doesn't. Do you have any plans to support preforking in the near future? Best regards, giorgenes
