Subject tag [Dovecot] is gone
by Timo Sirainen 13 Jun '14

13 Jun '14

I've actually been thinking about it almost since the beginning. It's just been annoying waste of space on my screen. And more importantly nowadays it's also breaking DKIM/DMARC signatures. So if somebody still uses Subject-based filtering it's about time to switch to List-ID header based filtering now. Another thing I'm wondering about is if I should allow text/html parts, because removing them will also break the DKIM signatures. Or mainly I'd like to allow only multipart/alternative with text/plain + text/html, but I don't think I can configure Mailman to support that.

display SSL version?
by Zube 13 Jun '14

13 Jun '14

Sorry for the bother, but is there any way to poke or prod or query dovecot so that it will reveal what version of SSL it is currently using? dovecot --build-options tells me that openssl is there, but not the version. ldd on any of the binaries in libexec comes up empty. I can get the version and what directory it is looking at by: strings ssl-params | grep -i ssl but that is kludgy. CentOS 5, dovecot 2.2.13. Thanks for any help. Cheers, Zube

A solution : dsync(someuser) Error: Mailbox GUIDs are not permanent without index files
by James Rogers 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

While migrating from mbox to maildir using dsync, I kept running into a brick wall. Some folders would not sync. The message in stderr was: Error message GUID: Mailbox GUIDs are not permanent without index files. This is what solved things for me. I hope this might help someone. Let me know if I'm completely off sides. When working with dsync to migrate from mbox to maildir format mailboxes, I kept running into the error: dsync(someuser): Error: Couldn't get mailbox Drafts GUID: Mailbox GUIDs are not permanent without index files dsync(someuser): Error: Couldn't get mailbox Junk E-mail1 GUID: Mailbox GUIDs are not permanent without index files dsync(soemuser): Error: Couldn't get mailbox TO DO LATER - US GUID: Mailbox GUIDs are not permanent without index files dsync(someuser): Error: Couldn't get mailbox Notes GUID: Mailbox GUIDs are not permanent without index files dsync(someuser): Error: Couldn't get mailbox Orders Pending GUID: Mailbox GUIDs are not permanent without index files dsync(someuser): Error: Couldn't get mailbox Junk E-mail GUID: Mailbox GUIDs are not permanent without index files dsync(someuser): Error: Couldn't get mailbox Server Mgmt+Config GUID: Mailbox GUIDs are not permanent without index files The error messages were helpful, but it would be nice to know what prevented the creation of the indexes in the errors (permissions, settings, disk space, etc.). I finally figured it out semi-randomly when I dumped my doveconf file using doveconf -n, and saw: mbox_min_index_size = 100 k I felt very um... happy? And not too bright. The following made my problems go away, and the sync worked flawlessly. mbox_min_index_size = 0 I guess it's best to set this using dsync -o'mbox_min_index_size=0' Mail now converts quickly and completely even for 0 length mailboxes (i.e. empty folders are created). Also, I would like to note that mb2md.pl should not be used to convert mbox to maildir. The regex used to split mboxes will fragment messages. mb2md.pl uses: if ( /^From / And in the very least, the following would be less harmful: if ( /^From\s+(\S+.*(a)\S+.*|MAILER.DAEMON)\s+.*$/ I love dovecot. I knew it must be something bone-headed I just wasn't seeing. And now I can go get some rest. --James W. Rogers

lazy_expunge mangles dovecot-acl-list
by Christoph Bußenius 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

Hi, I think I found a bug in Dovecot 2.1.17 and 2.2.13. In our setup, sometimes ACLs stop working because "dovecot-acl-list" is replaced by an empty file. We found that lazy_expunge is connected to this. To reproduce, create ACLs for "user1" in a folder. Put a mail in that folder and expunge it, so that the folder will be created in the "expunged" namespace. For instance, # cat user1/mail/mailboxes/folder/dbox-Mails/dovecot-acl user=user2 keilrwts # cat user1/mail/dovecot-acl-list 1350914868 folder # doveadm -f flow fetch -u "user1" 'guid' mailbox _EXPUNGED.\* # ls -l user1/mail/dovecot-acl-list -rw------- 1 vmail vmail 0 2014-06-12 11:40 user1/mail/dovecot-acl-list You see that we have used doveadm to list the expunged namespace, which has emptied the "dovecot-acl-list" file.

Parse dovecot 2.2 logs with logstash
by Bruno Galindro da Costa 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

Guys, I need to parse my dovecot log files with logstash grok patterns. Is there any document specifying the patterns used by dovecot to write it's logs? I need to find all the log possibilities that could be writed to log files by dovecot. So, if a document like that exists or if anyone could answer my question, I'll could make the parser with less difficult. -- Att. Bruno Galindro da Costa

Converting mailboxes from one Maildir format to another
by Patrick C 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

I am currently running dovecot 2.0.9 on a CentOS 6 server with the following layout for mailboxes: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir I would like to change the layout to this format to match the output of other software packages such as offlineimap, mbsync, etc: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:LAYOUT=fs:INBOX=~/Maildir/INBOX Is there a way to convert the mailbox layout for all mail accounts currently on the server? I was looking at dsync, but there aren't any Maildir <--> Maildir examples. I was also looking at potentially writing a script to manually rename directories/move files around to match the new format, but wasn't sure whether that would mess with UIDs or other dovecot internals. pat patrickc81(a)gmail.com

Safe to downgrade 2.2 to 2.1?
by Florian Tischler 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

Hi, is it safe to downgrade Dovecot 2.2 to 2.1 (in my case 2.2.13 to 2.1.17 with mdbox format) or will there be troubles with index files and backup/restore is recommended? Unfortunately with 2.2+ it is not to be possible to use acl + lazy_expunge together anymore, so downgrading is the only option for me... @Timo, please fix acl + lazy_expunge in 2.2 if you find some time.

Change index location problem
by igord 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

Hi All, I was unable to change location of Dovecot indexes. Currently they are under /var/vmail/%d/%u, but I want to change them to /media/ephemeral0/%u I've changed conf line in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%u:INDEX=/media/ephemeral0/%u and setup permissions of /media/ephemeral0 to dovecot:dovecot, tried also vmail:mail (which is default user for e-mails) and also tried with 777 on all dirs, but Dovecot is keeping creating indexes on the old location. I tried moving them from old to new location, but Dovecot recreates them on the old location. Details: # dovecot --version 2.0.9 # doveconf -a | grep location mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%u:INDEX=/media/ephemeral0/%u Has anyone experienced something similar, any solution for this? Thanks in advance! -- View this message in context: http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/Change-index-location-problem-tp48468.… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: Subject tag [Dovecot] is gone

On 6/9/2014 7:26 PM, Timo Sirainen wrote: > The main reason is DKIM, which is starting to be a real problem. I have not used DKIM much. My mail server and client mostly deal with SPF. I have a filter that colorizes messages that have no SPF or a missing DKIM or bad DKIM signature. I *have* noticed that a lot of messages from the list get marked in such manner, but it never really bothered me and I never thought about it much. Now I understand why that happens (the [Dovecot] identifier in the subject). When trying to solve a problem, the first thing is to correctly identify the problem. You cannot solve a problem if you do not even know what it is. The underlying problem is to identify and classify emails as ones you want and ones you do not want. This is not easy and involves reading a person's mind. A person may, depending on their mood, classify the same email differently at different times, which complicates things. DKIM assumes that you can, in many cases, classify emails this way based on authenticating the *domain* of the sender. This has some serious flaws in that it does not address this issue, even though it purports to. One way to classify an email as "wanted" is if it comes from someone you know and want to communicate with. Signing based on a domain does nothing to address this. If my girlfriend is judy(a)yahoo.com, I want to receive her emails. That does not means I want to receive all emails from the yahoo.com domain. I do not want someone else to impersonate her. If later, we break up and I no longer want to receive her emails, DKIM does nothing to help with that, either. That could be OK if such functionality is beyond its scope. DKIM erroneously bundles sender authentication with message validation. I want to know that it really was judy(a)yahoo.com that sent me the message and not someone trying to impersonate her. However, as a separate function, I would like to know that the message I received is not the one she sent. These functions should not be integrated. As it is now, if the signature does not verify, I do not know why. Was the sender spoofed? Was some part of the message modified in some way? And just for the record, I believe that the subject line should conceptually be treated as part of the message, along with the date. DKIM is too strict. If I want to present a legal document (email) in court, I may want to prove that the document I present to the court is exactly as it was when it was sent to me. However, this is not a common occurrence. The real world is messy and imperfect and often, changes to emails are innocuous and legitimate. Mailing lists are an example of this. A mailing list or anti-virus scanner *should* be able to add a footer or add a mailing list identifier to the subject line, as long as those changes can be marked as later additions that the original sender is not accountable for. An email program should make it clear to the recipient which parts are not accountable to the original sender. I am not proposing a new standard, simply pointing out that breaking an established protocol (by removing the [Dovecot] subject identifier) because of a flawed anti-spam system is not in people's best interest. Can a spammer spoof messages from the list? Sure. Has it happened? Not that I am aware of. Is it a problem? Not so far. So why, then, make people go through all this trouble of setting up new filters and rules, mail routing, software upgrades, etc, just to appease a standard that is clearly broken? Dem

replication with plugin won´t work
by Florian Schaal 11 Jun '14

Hi all, i try to setup a master-master replication with dovecot / dsync. I´m using virtual-users. When I call doveadm sync -A remote:vmail@server2 new mails are copied to the second server, but new messages from server 2 not on Server 1. To fix this i run doveadm sync -A remote:vmail@server on the 2nd server But I want that it works with dovecot / dsync (see my config at the end - identical on bot servers, only mail_replica is different). I added some services regarding http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication If i send a local mail on one server it will not be replicated to the other server until i run doveadm sync. Maybe i just missed some steps in my setup? doveadm user '*' displays the right users on both servers. === docecot.conf === # 2.2.13 (7b25994a8cb7): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-042stab076.8 x86_64 Debian 7.5 auth_mechanisms = plain login ntlm disable_plaintext_auth = no dsync_remote_cmd = ssh -p 4711 -l%{login} %{host} doveadm dsync -u%u listen = *,[::] log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_debug = yes mail_plugins = " notify replication" mail_privileged_group = vmail passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } plugin { mail_replica = remote:vmail@server2 quota = dict:user::file:/var/vmail/%d/%n/.quotausage replication_full_sync_interval = 1 hours sieve = /var/vmail/%d/%n/.sieve } protocols = imap pop3 service aggregator { fifo_listener replication-notify-fifo { mode = 0666 user = vmail } unix_listener replication-notify { mode = 0666 user = vmail } } service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = vmail mode = 0600 user = vmail } user = root } service config { unix_listener config { user = vmail } } service doveadm { user = vmail } service imap-login { client_limit = 1000 process_limit = 500 } service replicator { process_min_avail = 1 } ssl_cert = </etc/postfix/smtpd.cert ssl_key = </etc/postfix/smtpd.key userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota imap_quota } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = quota pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } protocol lda { mail_plugins = sieve quota } === docecot.conf === regards Florian

[Dovecot] Can't get authentication for masterusers on Mac OS X Server 10.6.8
by Gilles Celli 11 Jun '14

11 Jun '14

Hi dovecot masters, This is my first post here, since I desperately need some advices from the dovecot community. I've tried to get an answer on the Apple Forums but til now no luck....here we go: I've tried to sync our users emails (Mac OS X Server 10.6.8 Snow Leopard with dovecot 1.1.20-apple0.5) via imapsync to our new server by using the masterusers authentication method on the old 10.6.8 server... The main problem on OS X Server 10.6.8 is that dovecot 1.1.20 uses the OD (OpenDirectory) driver (well I think), so that when following the directions of Master users/password from this page I can't login with the http://wiki1.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers I couldn't find anything on the OD driver directive....the dovecot 1.1.20-apple build doesn't even have the shadow driver built in (see below the dovecot --build-options), so that passdb shadow {} won't work anyway I always get NO Authentication failed, when trying the following: >telnet localhost 143 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. * OK Dovecot ready. 1 login user1*mailadmin PASSWORD 1 NO Authentication failed. I've tried also to add a Post-login scripting like described here, but no luck either: http://www.stefanux.de/wiki/doku.php/server/dovecot Does someone know how to fix my migration issue ?

Dovecot auth NTLM
by dovecot.lista＠palacio.cu 10 Jun '14

10 Jun '14

Hello, this is my first email to the list... i´m configuring Dovecot with NTLM authentication, at least this is what i wanted, but i´m having a few problems. 1-I made my configuration following the steps from this howto http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/ActiveDirectoryNtlm from the dovecot official site, but my dovecot´s version is 2.1.7 and the tutorial dovecot´s version is 1.1.16. But, the fact is that when i enter to the wiki1, for the version 1.x i found that all the howtos are obsoletes and the tutorial for the version 1.x is the same for the 2.x version, so this howto is not trustful.... but, there is not another one. 2-When i implement it all seems to work OK, but the communication between dovecot and the helper in "/usr/bin/ntlm_auth". I made the tests with the binary(/usr/bin/ntlm_auth) and i got the right answers from it, and i also made the test with the tool wbinfo and were successful. During the tests i was monitoring the logs of my Domain Controller (The server from where i want to authenticate) and it logged all the requests i made however when i try to authenticate with dovecot in my Domain Controller nothing is written in the logs... then i get to the conclusion that Dovecot is not communicating with the helper, and of course in dovecot´s logs appears: auth: Info: winbind(?,10.10.10.10): user not authenticated: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL As i said, my friends, there is no any other tutorial or howto in internet, at least i did not see it. I´m asking for your help... if any of you have configured Dovecot to auth against NTLM, please tell me how. Im working on Debian Wheezy and Dovecot 2.1.7. PS:Please forgive my English i speak Spanish

Dovecot Configuration for access with GSSAPI / Kerberos

[Dovecot] Issues with VANISHED CHANGEDSINCE
by Michael J Rubinsky 09 Jun '14

09 Jun '14

I've been seeing the following wonky behavior with Dovecot. Currently this is with Dovecot 2.0.19, but I was also seeing it in earlier versions as well, including versions from the 1.x series. Some background, this is from Horde's ActiveSync library, when it is trying to determine what UIDs have recently been expunged. I can guarantee that when this command was sent, there was only one or two emails that were removed since the provided MODSEQ value. C: 8 UID FETCH 1:* UID (VANISHED CHANGEDSINCE 587742) S: * VANISHED (EARLIER) 1:119944,119947:123482,123484:128043,128045:130388,130390:130456,130458:132127,132129:135832,135834:136201,136203:136301,136303:136316,136318:138502,138504:140099,140101:141908,141910:142607,142609:142744,142746:142865,142867:143160,143164:143173,143176:143179,143181:143187,143189:143190,143192:143195,143197:143270,143272:143273,143275:143280,143282:143302,143305:143307,143309:143318,143320:143333,143335:143337,143339:143341,143343:143375,143377:143400,143402:143551,143553:143637,143640:143706,143708:144069,144071:144178,144180:144307,144309:144316,144318:144329,144331:144931,144933:144983,144985:145000,145002:145069,145071:145072,145074:145132,145136:145178,145180:145191,145193 Also, to verify it wasn't something screwy with my server, Michael Slusarz provided me with this from his server: <quote> There's definitely something wonky going on in the code. There's a certain tipping point of modseqs where the values become incorrect. For a mailbox with HIGHESTMODSEQ of 54004, I see this: a uid fetch 1:* UID (VANISHED CHANGEDSINCE 53881) * VANISHED (EARLIER) 1:37308,37310:40788,40791:41032,41034:41083 a OK Fetch completed. b uid fetch 1:* UID (VANISHED CHANGEDSINCE 53882) * VANISHED (EARLIER) 41029:41030,41047:41083 b OK Fetch completed. </quote> Thanks for any guidance. -- mike The Horde Project (www.horde.org) mrubinsk(a)horde.org

[Dovecot] checkpassword memory limit
by a 08 Jun '14

08 Jun '14

Hi. I am trying to authenticate dovecot from a wordpress database. I was thinking of using the checkpassword script to start a cli php script. That php script would then include the necessary wordpress functions, do the auth (find the wp username from user database using the email address, and authenticate with the user/pass), and return the result to the checkpassword script. I made the above scripts (the php script will be used to authenticate some other services too), and when I run them "by hand" (even with "sudo -u dovecot ..."), it works. But, when the dovecot runs them, the php runs out of memory. After a lot of debuging, I find out that when the dovecot starts the checkpassword script, it makes a 250kB memory limit. But it is not enough for the php script, it needs 14MB. I tried to put a "ulimit -v 16777216" into the checkpassword.sh, but it doesn't work.Is there some hardcoded limit in the dovecot itself? And if there is, could it be somehow changed?I am using a simple D ebian Wheezy LAMP, and installed everything from repo. Thanks for every idea.

[Dovecot] Authentication Failure (newbie)
by Danny Gorton 08 Jun '14

08 Jun '14

Greetings, I'm am learning about running a mail server and I set up a brand new Ubuntu 14.04 server with postfix and dovecot. I had some initial problems with dovecot not starting, and then with not having proper permissions/access to the various directories and files and pipes, etc, and in the process starting to learn how this thing works. After searching in web-land I seem to have overcome those issues and dovecot and postfix both start and accept connections now (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/TestPop3Installation) However when I check to see if I can authenticate I get Authentication Failed. At the time of these login attempts there are no messages added to syslog or mail.log, dovecot log entries are below. Note I redacted my test user and password values to 'xxxxx', and my domain value to 'domain.com'. Also I'm testing with my plain text password, but I've tried using AUTH PLAIN <base64 encoded uid/pwd>. I have also tried the setup with a default auth domain, and I've tried authenticating with and without the domain name as part of the user name, with the same results. I added the debug settings and disable_plaintext_auth = no to try to solve this issue. Here is my test command set: xxxxx@apacweb:~$ sudo doveadm user xxxxx field valueuserdb lookup: user xxxxx doesn't exist and : xxxxx@apacweb:~$ telnet localhost 110 Trying ::1... Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot (Ubuntu) ready. user xxxxx +OK pass xxxxx -ERR [AUTH] Authentication failed. Here is a cut from the dovecot log: 2014-06-08 01:22:10 auth: Error: passwd-file(xxxxx): stat(uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/vmail//xxxxx /etc/dovecot/users) failed: Address family not supported by protocol I figure this is the root cause of this issue and the solution to it is supposedly to tell dovecot to not listen on IPv6 (listen = *), but I did that and it didn't help (see config). Here is a cut from the dovecot.info log: 2014-06-08 00:16:25 auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=3131) 2014-06-08 01:22:10 auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth 2014-06-08 01:22:10 auth: Debug: Read auth token secret from /var/run/dovecot//auth-token-secret.dat 2014-06-08 01:22:10 auth: Debug: passwd-file /etc/dovecot/passwd: Read 1 users in 0 secs 2014-06-08 01:22:10 auth: Debug: master in: USER 1 xxxxx service=doveadm 2014-06-08 01:22:10 auth: Debug: userdb out: NOTFOUND 1 Here is my dovecot config: # 2.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.13.0-24-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS ext4 auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_mechanisms = plain cram-md5 auth_verbose = yes base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ disable_plaintext_auth = no info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot.info listen = * log_path = /var/log/dovecot log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } protocols = imap pop3 service auth { executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/auth unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth-client { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = postfix mode = 0777 user = postfix } user = vmail } service imap-login { chroot = login executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login user = dovecot } service imap { executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/imap } service pop3-login { chroot = login executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3-login inet_listener pop3 { address = * port = 110 } inet_listener pop3s { address = * port = 995 } user = dovecot } service pop3 { executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/smtpd.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/smtpd.key userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/vmail/%d/%n /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } valid_chroot_dirs = /var/spool/vmail protocol pop3 { pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } I'm sure I've done something stupid, but after thrashing about for some days I haven't been able to figure out what it is.

[Dovecot] Running dovecot under Cygwin
by Manolis Spanakis 06 Jun '14

06 Jun '14

Hi, In http://wiki2.dovecot.org/DovecotFeatures I found the following statement regarding devcot support of cygwin: Cygwin works after a few code changes, but doesn't support SCM_RIGHTS I downloaded "dovecot-2.2.13.tar.gr" and tried to compile it under cygwin version 1.7.30 (0.272/5/3) CYGWIN_NT-6.3-WOW642.580 (32-bit). As I executed the: $./configure I got the following error: error: fd passing is required for Dovecot to work If I bypass this error by changing "configure" I get no other errors either in "configure" or "make". It seems that "src/lib/fdpass.c" is the only library incompatible with cygwin. Is there any file version available that provides a solution? Thank you in advance, Manolis Spanakis

[Dovecot] CRAM-MD5 authentication memory leak problem.
by Kenji Tonami 06 Jun '14

06 Jun '14

I used dovecot Auth daemon for postfix SMTP Auth. I saved clear password to OpenLDAP, then I set up that as the password will be used. There ware no trouble when authentication had sucessed. But when authentication failed by using "CRAM-MD5", it caused increasing memory allocation of dovecot auth daemon. In case of using "PLAIN" or "LOGIN", there were no problem even if authentication had failed. I got same result on dovecot-2.0.9(RHEL6) and dovecot-2.2.13. Does anyone know similar case? I tried restarting dovecot Auth daemon by using service_count parameter in service auth settings. When authentication failed, message on postfix was as follows: ** 535 5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: "CRAM-MD5 string" When authentication failed and restarting dovecot auth daemon at the same time, message on postfix was changed as follows: ** 535 5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: Connection lost to authentication server It looks like that the failed authentication request is suspended by restarting auth daemon. -- config (10-auth.conf) auth_mechanisms = plain login cram-md5 -- -- config (10-master.conf) service auth { executable = auth unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0666 user = postfix group = postfix } } -- -- auth-ldap.conf.ext passdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/ldap-passdb.conf.ext } -- -- ldap-passdb.conf.ext host = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx dn = LDAP Manager DN dnpass = Manager DN password base = ou=mail,dc=xxxxxx,dc=xx scope = subtree pass_attrs = mailID=user,mailClearPassword=password pass_filter = (mailID=%u) auth_bind = no default_pass_scheme = plain -- Thanks. -- Kenji Tonami

It turned out to be a TCP scaling problem. If a router/firewall drops packets with a TCP scaling option set, the endpoints disagree on how many outstanding non-ACK packets are allowed, resulting in timeouts. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935400 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_window_scale_option The Microsoft KB does hint those versions of Outlook may be affected, but I can't figure out why there would be a difference between Dovecot 2.1 and 2.2.

by Claudinei Santos 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

Hello, The sharing folders with dovecot works, but when the user that i shared the folder reads any e-mails in the folder, all my subcribed folder (the folders that i do not shared with this user) is unsubcribed from my account. The only folders that remains is the default ones ( inbox, trash, spam and sent) and the folder that i shared with that user. my configurations: # separator for master-users, example: "login_user*master_user -> user(a)domain.tld*masteruser auth_master_user_separator = * passdb passwd-file { driver = passwd-file args = /etc/dovecot-masterusers master = yes } namespace private { type = private separator = / prefix = #location defaults to mail_location. inbox = yes } namespace shared { type = shared separator = / prefix = Share Folders/%%u/ location = maildir:/var/spool/mail/vmail/%d/%%n:INDEX=/var/spool/mail/vmail/%d/%n/shared/%%u subscriptions = yes list = children } # cat /etc/dovecot-postlogin #!/bin/bash export MASTER_USER="$USER" exec /usr/lib64/dovecot/imap "$@" Can someone help me out with this? Thanks in advance.

[Dovecot] director with multiple instances
by Will Yardley 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

I'm experiencing some problems similar to those described in http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2012-July/137250.html except with 2.0.9. Adding http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2012-July/084906.html to the main config didn't seem to help, nor did setting the list of director and backend servers to just the system itself. I get a banner connecting to port 143: [root@retr01 log]# telnet localhost 143 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.

[Dovecot] What are the options for HA and\or replication and\or storage?
by Eliezer Croitoru 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

I am considering couple options of converting a current service into a HA using multi servers or any other solutions. The point is that I am thinking about the options and which I am looking for. NFS can be a storage which has it's own pros and cons. There is the option of DRBD but as of now it's limited for two hosts. What options do exist out-there as a solution? The main issues are that the current service is based on Maildir and is on one server with resierfs. The service is composed of one host with 50k users couple disks in raid6. On the same machine we have postfix as mailer. I would like to hear about HA environment that I can use to replicate the boxes. My basic research leaded me to smtp on one host or more and using lmtp to send the messages to dovecot o another host which will have a replicated host and will be used with storage system based on ISCSI or NFS. Any other idea to enhance the current one or to replace it is more then just welcome. Thanks, Eliezer

[Dovecot] General questions about TCP replication with dsync
by Patrick De Zordo 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

Hi Guys, I would like to question why I see this errors in my logs. Let explain me! Dovecot version: 2.2.9 (on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) Ive configured our dovecot servers (2 servers) to do the TCP replication with dsync. This is working flawless. 1. Question: In logs I can see this errors on every sync (on the slave server / server without changes which should be updated): ---8<----------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- dsync-server(email(a)example.com): Error: net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/replicator-doveadm) failed: Permission denied ---8<----------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Googling a bit gave me the information This should be normal..? Well ok, errors in logs are not nice to see, but can someone confirm this is really ok? Timo? 2. Question (much more important): We are using sieve scripts for our users, they are replicated to the replica-host but this errors appears in logs on every synchronized message: ---8<----------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- dsync-server(email(a)example.com): Error: Failed to access mailbox dovecot/sieve: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. dsync-server(email(a)example.com): Error: stat(/var/vmail/example.com/email/.dovecot.sieve/tmp) failed: Not a directory ---8<----------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- So whats going on there? This is strange and should not be, right? Any hints? Thank you very much! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Distinti saluti / Kind regards De Zordo Patrick patrick(a)spamreducer.eu

[Dovecot] IMAP copy fails because the mailbox size of user1 is exceeding the quota limit of user2??
by Katja Wegner 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

Hi all, I do have a mailbox-quota problem in dovecot 2.0.19 that is beond my understanding. Could someone pls. give me a hint. - user1 max. mailbox quota is set to 1GB, the current mailbox size of user1 is 15MB - user2 max. mailbox quota is set to 10MB, the current mailbox size of user1 is 10kB - user1 shares the folder 'shared_folder' to user2 with all rights (read, write ...) - user2 has subscribed to 'shared_folder' the problem: - user2 tries to move a mail (20kB) to the shared folder via telnet: ". copy 1:1 shared/user1/shared_folder" - it fails with: "NO [OVERQUOTA] Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full)" - copying the same mail to a local folder of user2 works without problems. - After I raised the max. mailbox quota of user2 from 10MB to 16MB it was possible to move the mail to the 'shared_folder' of user1. It looks like the copy operation fails because the mailbox size of user1 is exceeding the quota limit of user2! Is this possible? Is this a bug?

[Dovecot] attachment sis + EMLINK (too many links) = segfault bug (2.2.12)
by Pavel Stano 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

Hi, we use attachment dedup with lots of emails (still migrating to it from maildir). We use netapp storage with wafl filesystem over nfs. Problem is that netapp has hard limit of 100k hardlinks to one file. And we encountered it. Problem is that dovecot start do segfault (lmtp,dsync,pop3 etc) when it happend when tried to deliver new emails with that attachment. Here is strace of dsync: 6740 link("/nfsmnt/mailatch1/f9/10/hashes/f9108ddaa156ac15738e41ed3bedec1eda50175d", "/nfsmnt/mailatch1/f9/10/f9108ddaa156ac15738e41ed3bedec1eda50175d-7bb7a20ddb598853541a000028db4a9f") = -1 EMLINK (Too many links) 6740 --- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) --- ls -lh: -rw------- 100000 vmail vmail 4.7K Apr 28 16:54 /nfsmnt/mailatch1/f9/10/hashes/f9108ddaa156ac15738e41ed3bedec1eda50175d We were using mail_attachment_min_size=4kb, we solve it by increasing it to 8kb. It would be nice to somehow fix this problem. Like not crash when EMLINK happend and maybe do not deduplicate attachments but deliver email without dedup. Or create second file in hashes/ and start hardlinking it instead of original. AFAIK ext4 has also hard-link limit 64k (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_link#Limitations_of_hard_links) So this can happen to anyone with lots of emails.

[Dovecot] Plugin mail-filter tangles
by Stanislas SABATIER 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

System installed : Dovecot 2.2.12 as IMAP server and Postfix as MTA. Dovecot and Postfix connected via LMTP + Dovecot mail plugin 'mail-filter' to encrypt/decrypt emails on the fly with public/private users' RSA keys. Case study : You have 3 (virtuals) users belonging to 3 different domains, all managed by your Dovecot server. One of these users is connected to Dovecot with MUA Thunderbird, and he's writing an email to someone outside of yours domains, but he puts the two others users' email addresses in CC : mail from user1(a)domain1.dovecot --> to: someone@outside, CC: user2(a)domain2.dovecot, user3(a)domaine3.dovecot What happens (as far as I can understand) : The email is submitted to Postfix : one copy is delivered outside, the other is passed to Dovecot via LMTP for user2 & user3 @dovecot Dovecot is handling the final delivery, through mail-filter plugin as follow : 1. both users contexts are created from user_db queries 2. mail-filter plugin is init for user2 3. /mail_user_created/ for user2 4. mai-filter plugin arguments are parsed for user2 5. â¦/mail_allocated/ then /mail_save_begin/ for user2 (at this stage, the email is encrypted with users2 params) 6. Dovecot tells to LMTP that mail for user2 is delivered 7. then, â we are still in user2 context â, an other /mail_allocated/ is run, followed by a /istream_opened/ 8. mail user context is swithed to user3 --> /mail_user_created/ --> plugin's args parsed --> â¦ /mail_allocated/ 9. andâ¦ Dovecot tells to LMTP that mail for user3 is delivered So, it appears that Dovecot is re-using user2's email to pass it to user3 by opening an istream in user2's context. In my configuration, Dovecot can't do that because it has not the user2's private rsa key to reopen the email it has just encrypted, so it passes the email to user3 with user2 encryption params. Final result : user3 is receiving the email encrypted with user2's rsa key ! Problem : how to force Dovecot to deinit then reinit mail-filter plugin for each user to be sure that each email is encrypted with the right key before it is saved to users' mailboxes ? Thank you in advance for your help. Stan.

[Dovecot] SQL passdb, LDAP userdb
by Kristof Bajnok 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

Hi, in my current setup, LDAP authentication + userdb works fine. I'd like to integrate Dovecot with Shibboleth. I have a custom module at the IdP (*) that inserts short-time tokens to an SQL table at user authentication, and I want Dovecot to use the token table for passdb but keep LDAP for storing the userdb (uid, quota, etc) I thought it was simple as omitting the sql user_query, but I got: Warning: mysql: Query failed, retrying: Table 'webmail.users' doesn't exist Error: sql(user@domain,ipaddr): User query failed: Table 'webmail.users' doesn't exist (using built-in default user_query: SELECT home, uid, gid FROM users WHERE username = '%n' AND domain = '%d') Do you have any hints how to do this? Thanks, Kristof (*): in SAML there is an Identity Provider that does user authentication, which is separated from the services

UID 26624 is a valid user ('info' of domain14552) but under a compleltly different domain name (hamish is under domain25367). However that user has also not logged in around the time the ownership was changed. There is no relevance to the two users, except that they exist on the system and for some reason this issue happened to the hamish user. The NFS server does not know about the UIDs, it just provides the numeric IDs which is translated on the dovecot/exim servers by NSS and Dovecotr using the replicated MySQL database. Additionally both users have existed for some time and the databases are in sync. Customers also do not have any access to the file system so there will be no symlinks in place. Its also not a single server that we are seeing the issue on, it maybe one Dovecot server accessing one NFS server. Then the next time its a different Dovecot server accessing a different NFS server. >> >the logs for that time which is abnormal (a whole bunch of other logins from >> >other customers but nothing from those two users and no errors) > What about cron jobs, message delivery, backups, ... anything that > possibly can alter that file. I don't think, it's a Dovecot issue, unless > the uid 26624 is valid and hamish is shared with that user. Nothing besides Courier being replaced by Dovecot has changed in the server setup (although I could be wrong there, but we are going through one component at a time and until this issue is resolved we are not moving onto the next), and the only file which is being modified is a file which only Dovecot maintains. There are hourly backups which do an rsync to another server in case of hardware failure, there are scripts which move mailboxes between NFS servers but they show up in logs. Exim has no need to touch a dovecot controlled file, and when it writes mail into the maildir its writing as the correct user. It also seem odd that one login is fine then randomly the next login the file ownership has changed, nothing happens in between the two logins which are in some cases only 5 to 10 minutes apart. All I am really looking for is ideas on where to look, as it seems odd that nobody else is reporting this, and since its a reasonably new setup its possibly something we have done in the config (which I posted in my first email). Is there a reliable way to run a script directly when a dovecot session starts and finishes so we could output the ownership before and after which may also help eliminate the session itself. Cheers, Bruce

[Dovecot] empty emails with 2.2.13/pigeonhole
by Cor Bosman 04 Jun '14

04 Jun '14

I recently upgraded from 2.2.10 to 2.2.13, and also upgraded pigeonhole. Ever since im seeing some empty emails appear in my inbox. Return-Path: <cricket(a)stats2.xs4all.net> Delivered-To: <cor> Received: from imapdirector1.xs4all.net ([194.109.26.173]) by userimap9.xs4all.nl (Dovecot) with LMTP id CHu0MUDDjlOBdwAAwvsqNQ for <cor>; Wed, 04 Jun 2014 08:57:04 +0200 Thats all this mail contains. This only happens using LMTP/Sieve, and with many different senders/recipients. Debug log shows nothing out of the ordinary, except that the mail seems to be corrupted by the time it hits sieve. It's very hard to diagnose. Our path is kind of lengthy, and in theory it could happen everywhere. Mail first arrives on incoming MX server which is sendmail. From there it's sent to a dovecot director using lmtp, which sends it to a server that does final delivery with sieve. Im not sure where the email gets corrupted. Any extra debugging I could turn on? Two extra things to note. So far it seems to only happen to emails that would have hit a matching sieve filter rule. I have asked a dozen people to verify this, and all emails would have matched a filter if all was well. Instead, it gets dropped into the inbox because pigeonhole seems to be working with the corrupt file and cant match any rules anymore. And second, 99% of our email is handled differently, from the sendmail server directly into a local mailer, and that never causes issues. We're in the process of switching to lmtp. Any insights? cor

[Dovecot] /etc/passwd userdb and long usernames
by Nicolás Reynolds 04 Jun '14

04 Jun '14

hi! i've configured dovecot to lookup usernames in /etc/passwd and it's working ok but it's having some problems retrieving info when the username is longer than 32 chars (i know it isn't recommended but everything seemed to work ok except for the hardcoded limit in useradd...) i found this on logs showing extra characters on the home field: http://pastie.org/pastes/9257902/text?key=vsxstofu3rf5wum4aic5va is there a limit on username length? i "solved" it by setting auth_username_format = %0.30u -- http://partidopirata.com.ar

[Dovecot] Dovecot + NFS + FreeBSD breakage ?
by Xavier Beaudouin 04 Jun '14

Hi, I am trying to update my old mails servers from dovecot 2.1.15 to 2.2.12 (freebsd ports) and upgrade to FreeBSD 10.0-P3. My mail storage are on NFS with index also. On 2.1.15 everything is ok, and in 10-mail.conf I have the good things to be added as wiki tell me (eg http://wiki2.dovecot.org/NFS) BUT, when I try a single connection like : $ telnet ::1 110 Trying ::1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot ready. user test@domain +OK pass thebloodypass Connection closed by foreign host.

[Dovecot] Change in LAYOUT=fs between 1.2.9 and 2.0.19?
by Martijn 04 Jun '14

04 Jun '14

While testing an upgrade from Dovecot 1.2.9 (on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS) to 2.0.19 (12.04 LTS) I encountered the following change in behaviour: In both setups, mail_location is defined as follows: mail_location = maildir:~/domains/%d/%n/.Maildir:LAYOUT=fs No other mail_location-related settings are set in the config. On 1.2.9 this leads to new mail being delivered to this example directory: /home/username/domains/example-domain.ext/webmaster/.Maildir/INBOX/new/ On 2.0.19 the exact same mail_location is set, but new mail is now delivered to: /home/username/domains/example-domain.ext/webmaster/.Maildir/new/ Notice the missing /INBOX/ in the path on 2.0.19. I found no mention of this change on http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Upgrading/2.0 which first lead me to suspect this was a bug in 2.0.19. However, while browsing the 2.0-wiki I found a page which sheds some light on the behaviour that is to be expected from Dovecot 2.0.x. Quote from http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Maildir#Directory_layout > "Mailbox directory name": "Without DIRNAME, INBOX will be stored at ~/Maildir/{new,cur,tmp}/, but when DIRNAME is specified, we get an extra path component INBOX/ immediately prior to the DIRNAME value, so in the example above INBOX would be stored at ~/Maildir/INBOX/mAildir/{new,cur,tmp}/." I then changed mail_location to have an empty DIRNAME, like: mail_location = maildir:~/domains/%d/%n/.Maildir:LAYOUT=fs:DIRNAME= It appears this fixes the problem for new mail arriving (haven't tested other folders yet). Questions: 1. Is this a deliberate change in behaviour between the two versions? If so, may I suggest adding this change to the Upgrading to 2.0 wiki page, because I was unable to find the relevant info quickly. If not, is this a misconfiguration on my side, or a (known) bug in one of the two versions? 2. Is the DIRNAME=(empty) a good solution, or is it unusual/hacky to leave DIRNAME empty? Any particular problems I may expect using this configuration? Thanks in advance for your help. -- Kind regards, Martijn

[Dovecot] Info about sharing mail folder
by Gianluca Calloni 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hi to all. First of all.. I'm new on the mailing list.. So.. Sorry in advance for any mistake or error on posting here.. The question (or doubt..) is about sharing mail folder. I use a test mail server. Is not the production server (always dovecot + postfix + spamassassin + clamav) Well.. In test mail server i can use the share folder, follow the conf istruction on wiki dovecot. And work fine. But i need to know if is possible for user_a(a)mydomain.com to share only 1 or 2 subfolder (E.g. .INBOX.FOLDER_A and .INBOX.FOLDER_B shared, .INBOX_FOLDER_C not shared) When i do some test sharing folder, the user with wich user_a(a)mydomain.com share the mailbox can view all the subfolder of user_a(a)mydomain.com Following my dovecot versione e config. Thank's in advance My dovecot version is 2.0.19 My dovecot conf is : # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf doveconf: Fatal: open(/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf) failed: Permission denied calloni@dovecot:~$ sudo -i [sudo] password for calloni: root@dovecot:~# dovecot -n # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.5.0-49-generic i686 Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS ext4 dict { acl = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext } disable_plaintext_auth = no first_valid_uid = 150 last_valid_uid = 150 mail_gid = mail mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%u mail_plugins = acl mail_uid = vmail namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / type = private } namespace { list = yes location = maildir:%%h:INDEX=~/shared/%%u prefix = shared/%%u/ separator = / subscriptions = no type = shared } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { acl = vfile acl_shared_dict = proxy::acl } postmaster_address = postmaster(a)jodovit.local protocols = " imap pop3" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = mail mode = 0600 user = vmail } } service dict { unix_listener dict { group = mail mode = 0600 user = vmail } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } Thi

Thanks for the suggestion, we have had another occurrence of the wrong ownership on the dovecot-uid today.

Not offhand, but if you want a remote tool, it ought to be simple to cobble together some feeder script and netcat (or openssl s_client). It will also be simpler if you configure the master password feature so you don't have access to all user passwords. So something like this for dumping the INBOX contents #!/bin/sh master-user=masteru master-password=masterp while read user server; do netcat --ssl $server 993 <<_EOF_ >${user}.report 1 LOGIN ${user}*${master-user} ${master-password) 2 SELECT INBOX 3 ... 4 LOGOUT _EOF_ done I don't know enough IMAP to fill in "3 ..." to dump all headers, but I'm sure it's not hard to find out. It's even simpler if you don't need to do it remotely: just use doveadm fetch -A hdr MAILBOX '*' Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[Dovecot] list all emails from command line?
by Tomasz Chmielewski 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

This is not strictly Dovecot question, but a more general IMAP one. I'm running a Dovecot server and have a user who is claiming that some email sent to him, say, on 30 May, showed up in his mailbox on 02 Jun. I've checked Postfix logs, and the message was correctly received on 30 May and passed to Dovecot. A similar issue happens every few days. This leaves me with two possibilities: 1) Dovecot is somehow not presenting the new mail to the user in a "timely manner" 2) user's email program is broken Therefore, I wanted to do some kind of "IMAP list" of the account, with a command line tool: - specify username, pass and server, - the tool would return a list of all email in their folders (message ID, From, To, Date, Subject). I would run it i.e. daily and this would let me verify when the mail was really visible in the account. Is anyone aware of a tool I could use to achieve that? -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://www.sslrack.com

[Dovecot] dovecot: lda(foo): Error: User foo doesn't have home dir set, disabling duplicate database

Hello everyone, I have a small problem with dovecot installed on ubuntu-13.10. I use dovcot as LDA with a LDAP-passdb and a pam-passdb. The userdb is static.

Can someone explain how I can create message rules to use with this version of Dovecot? I specially switched to this version because it supports then Pigeonhole Sieve. I would like to volunteer to contribute as a volunteer when someone would like to create a html driven user interface that provides a user friendly configuration interface and would make such configuration a piece of cake. -- Best regards, Jos Chrispijn --- Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.1.13: some questions about the mail-filter plugin
by Axel Luttgens 02 Jun '14

02 Jun '14

Looking at mail_filter_mailbox_allocated() of src/plugins/mail-filter/mail-filter-plugin.c: if ((class_flags & MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_OPEN_STREAMS) == 0 && (class_flags & MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_BINARY_DATA) != 0 && muser->out_socket_path != NULL) v->save_begin = mail_filter_mail_save_begin; it seems that a backend with MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_OPEN_STREAMS unset and MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_BINARY_DATA set is expected by the plugin. Technically, this would thus exclude the mbox backend, since its flag configuration seems to be exactly the opposite: struct mail_storage mbox_storage = { .name = MBOX_STORAGE_NAME, .class_flags = MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_MAILBOX_IS_FILE | MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_OPEN_STREAMS | MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_HAVE_MAIL_GUIDS, [...] Is this a correct interpretation? If yes, what is the rationale? I couldn't find any info related to such a limitation in the docs; the README file of http://dovecot.org/patches/2.2/mail-filter.tar.gz even says: "Mail filter plugin can read an email from any storage supported by Dovecot and modify the mail in some way"... All of this stems from my attempts to have working mail filters when I was trying to better understand the behaviors Stanislas was describing in a recent thread... Hence another question; in sdbox-storage.c, the definition of the "alias" for sdbox comes with: struct mail_storage dbox_storage = { .name = "dbox", /* alias */ .class_flags = MAIL_STORAGE_CLASS_FLAG_FILE_PER_MSG, [...] The initialization of member class_flags seems to be incomplete, when compared to the one for the name "sdbox". A typo? On the other hand, Stanislas showed a configuration with mail_location = dbox:/mailboxes/%Ld/%Ln and seemed to have a working mail filter. If above interpretation is correct, this would mean that the "alias" definition isn't used, but that the one for "sdbox" is used instead. Out of curiosity, how/where is that substitution achieved? Regards, Axel

[Dovecot] Combining userdbs
by Bubreg István 01 Jun '14

Hi, I think that using more than one userdb with setting the result actions doesn't work as expected from the documentation. The goal would be to set user-specific quotas for a few users with a specific passwd-file like this : cat /etc/dovecot/quotas foo:x::::::userdb_quota_rule=*:storage=2G The first userdb is passwd (with pam passwd): userdb { driver = passwd result_failure = return-fail result_internalfail = return-fail result_success = continue-ok skip = never } The second one is for the specific quota userdb { args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/quotas driver = passwd-file result_failure = continue result_internalfail = continue result_success = return-ok skip = notfound } User 'foo' exists in (pam) passd, but there's no place to store his own quota rule, that's why came handy to use a second userdb for storing just one extra field. That's working quiet well, he default quota is overriding form passwd-file. BUT: I've played a lot with changing the result_* and the 'skip' parameters, but none of them worked in the situation where a user ('bar') _only_ exists in passwd (and has to use the default quota config). doveadm quota get -u bar says doveadm(bar): Fatal: User doesn't exist With changing the parameters this error has gone, but the second userdb doesn't used for user 'foo' - even if the parameters are : userdb { driver = passwd result_failure = return-fail result_internalfail = return-fail result_success = continue <-- in theory, the next userdb is coming skip = never } userdb { args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/quotas driver = passwd-file result_failure = continue result_internalfail = continue result_success = return-ok skip = notfound } My question is that how should i set the result_* and 'skip' parameters to solve this : - there's a default quota rule in the config - some (a few) users has a larger quota - there's no way to store the user-specific quotas in the 'real' userdb (because it's pam/passwd) Thank you for your effort. # dovecot -n # 2.2.13 (de9b10f2e168): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.11.0-15-generic i686 Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = yes disable_plaintext_auth = no listen = * log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log mail_debug = yes mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_plugins = " quota" managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave duplicate namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { driver = pam } plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=1G quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = " imap sieve" service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } service managesieve { process_limit = 1024 } ssl = no ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem userdb { driver = passwd result_failure = return-fail result_internalfail = return-fail result_success = continue-ok } userdb { args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/quotas driver = passwd-file result_failure = continue-ok result_internalfail = continue-ok skip = notfound } protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota }

[Dovecot] Disabling plus sign extension delimiter in lmtp listener (or userdb)
by Benoit Panizzon 01 Jun '14

01 Jun '14

Hello We have migrated our email services from a server, which did not support IMAP and folders, therefore threated the plus sign + as a normal character in a part of an email address. Our new server delivers the emails via lmtp to dovecot. the few users which got a + character in the username first could not log-in (fixed by adding + to auth_username_chars). Now the next problem turn out to be, that the lmtp listener stripps everything after the + sign. The MTA correctly sends the whole email address, so it's not the MTA's fault. It can easily be tested by connecting to the dovecot LMTP listener IP address by telnet: 220 grautvornix.imp.ch Dovecot ready. mail from:<nobody> 250 2.1.0 OK rcpt to:<b+enoit(a)iscan.ch> 550 5.1.1 <b+enoit(a)iscan.ch> User doesn't exist: b(a)iscan.ch I could not find any configuration parameters for the lmtp listener or userdb service to tell it what to do with the + sign. Did I miss something, or is it impossible to have the + sign accepted as a normal character in an email address? Kind regards -Benoit-

[Dovecot] Upgraded my dovecot?
by Knute Johnson 31 May '14

31 May '14

I upgraded my server from Ubuntu 12.04LTS to 14.04LTS and it upgrade my dovecot too. Probably should have thought about that a little more before I pushed the button but oh well. So it didn't work when it came back up and I had to add a "inbox=yes" line to my namespace in 15-mailboxes.conf and that fixed it. So is there anything else I should update in my config files for this newer version of dovecot? # 2.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-30-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS auth_mechanisms = plain login mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { driver = pam } protocols = " imap" service imap-login { inet_listener imaps { port = 0 } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 0 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 0 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { driver = passwd } protocol imap { imap_capability = IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS mail_max_userip_connections = 30 } Thanks,

[Dovecot] ot: identifying TB IMAP issues
by voytek＠sbt.net.au 31 May '14

31 May '14

I have a user with with W7/TBird/IMAP to my dovecot 2.1.17 server, the user complains whilst he is composing lengthy emails (with multiple fowrds/replies quoted in the message) he gets 'hour glass' over compose windows with some message about not being able to save drafts, he then powers off ADSL modem, which enables him to continue composing email, powers on ADSL, and sends email what if anything can I assess at server end to identify any issues? any TB tips, what to enable or disable on TB ? looking at dovecot now (past the issue) with 'doveadm who' I don't see the user listed I think the user keeps many messages open concurrently in TB tabs, could that exhaust connection limit ? I expect this to be a TB issue? but, hope for some pointers

Hi there, We recently upgraded to 2.2.12 (the current version in FreeBSD's port tree), and are seeing these errors in our logs (not super frequently, but it happens): May 30 13:20:57 mail1 kernel: pid 15752 (imap), uid 1005: exited on signal 6 May 30 13:20:57 mail1 dovecot: imap(xxx): Fatal: master: service(imap): child 15752 killed with signal 6 (core not dumped - set service imap { drop_priv_before_exec=yes }) I tried manually upgrading to 2.2.13, on the off chance that was fixed, but I couldn't get the new pigeonhole (0.4.3) to compile once I did (perhaps why the FreeBSD port maintainer hasn't updated yet?). Suggestions? Right now we just check every couple of hours for affected users, and then delete all of the dovecot files for the affected user, which ends the error. Thanks, Andy --- Andy Dills Xecunet, Inc. www.xecu.net 301-682-9972 ---

Re: [Dovecot] Corrupted Mail?

As others have intimated, the use of procmail as your LDA is causing your mailbox to become inconsistent with respect to your indices. Procmail is appending your messages to mailboxes, but is ignorant of the existence of dovecot indices, and does not update them. When your IMAP service access those mailboxes, it detects this condition, and that's the log messages you are seeing. I think those messages are benign -- you can probably ignore it. Dovecot will automatically rebuild them. The alternative is to let dovecot's be responsible for message delivery: it can then update the indices, and IMAP/POP will find consistent indices. Try this at the end of procmailrc for regular delivery to the INBOX ################################################################################ # Replace default action using dovecot-lda to maintains caches. ################################################################################ :0 w | /location/of/dovecot-lda -d $USER For for non-INBOX filtering, try something like :0 Hw *^Subject: TEST |/location/of/dovecot-lda -d $USER -m testbox Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

Hey guys, I am getting the following error. It seems not be be severe, since my setup works without any signs of drawbacks. But I'd rather rely on a professional opinion.

> * ^List-Id:.*users.lists.fedoraproject.org > | $DELIVER -m $DESTDIR/MLists/Fedora You removed the '-d' parameter -- it may or may not work without it, but you'll need it in a virtual user setup. I'm not sure whether procmail sets $USER by itself or it gets passed as an environment variable, so if $USER is not working, use $LOGNAME, or better yet, just hardcode the value if this is your own script. Also, the -m parameter is the name of a mailbox, not a pathname, so I think "MLists/Fedora" is what you want. > This is what I found in the procmail log: > lda: Fatal: destination user parameter (-d user) not given Well, this error couldn't be more explicit, can it?

[Dovecot] dovecot 2.1.15 hangs while connecting.
by Albert Whale 28 May '14

28 May '14

I am using Dovecot in two Server environments. My Legacy (5 years+ old) servers are running dovecot 1.1.20, and are responding as expected. These servers are using an NFS based storage for the /home directory structure, and are working beautifully. However, I need to replace these inefficient servers, and get more current. That brings me to the problem, where I am implementing Dovecot 2.1.15, which does not complete the authentication cycle. I have converted the 1.1.20 configuration using the documentation available, and I have the following for my running configuration (which is not working): # 2.1.15: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.8.13.4-server-1.mga3 i686 Mageia 3 auth_debug = yes base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ disable_plaintext_auth = no lock_method = dotlock login_greeting = SpamZapper Email ready. login_log_format_elements = user=<%u> method=%m rip=%r lip=%l %c mail_debug = yes mail_fsync = always mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_nfs_index = yes mail_nfs_storage = yes mail_privileged_group = mail mmap_disable = yes passdb { driver = pam } protocols = imap pop3 service auth { user = root } service imap-login { chroot = login client_limit = 256 user = dovecot } service pop3-login { chroot = login client_limit = 256 user = dovecot } ssl = no userdb { driver = passwd } verbose_proctitle = yes protocol pop3 { mail_max_userip_connections = 50 pop3_logout_format = top=%t/%p, retr=%r/%b, del=%d/%m, size=%s pop3_uidl_format = %08Xv%08Xu } protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster(a)example.com } I have captured the Debug output of the dovecot process while attempting to connect: May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: auth: Debug: client in: AUTH#0111#011PLAIN#011service=pop3#011session=IzAYqGT6pgBCz4Xk#011lip=66.207.133.227#011rip=66.207.133.228#011lport=110#011rport=38566#011resp=<hidden> May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: auth-worker(551): Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: auth-worker(551): Debug: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/auth/libdriver_mysql.so May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: auth-worker(551): Debug: pam(aewhale,66.207.133.228): lookup service=dovecot May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: auth-worker(551): Debug: pam(aewhale,66.207.133.228): #1/1 style=1 msg=Password: May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: auth: Debug: client passdb out: OK#0111#011user=aewhale May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: auth: Debug: master in: REQUEST#0112671116289#011453#0111#01174d85bf0d878139a83e682a869786da9 May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: auth-worker(551): Debug: passwd(aewhale,66.207.133.228): lookup May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: auth: Debug: master userdb out: USER#0112671116289#011aewhale#011system_groups_user=aewhale#011uid=501#011gid=501#011home=/home/aewhale May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<aewhale>, method=PLAIN, rip=66.207.133.228, lip=66.207.133.227 May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: pop3(aewhale): Debug: Effective uid=501, gid=501, home=/home/aewhale May 27 13:02:10 ns dovecot: pop3(aewhale): Debug: maildir++: root=/home/aewhale/Maildir, index=, control=, inbox=/home/aewhale/Maildir, alt= All processing stops here.

[Dovecot] Corrupted Mail?
by Arthur Dent 28 May '14

28 May '14

Hello All, I have a Dovecot v2.2.12 installation running on a Fedora 20 box which is the mailserver for my family. This means that it is serving only 4 accounts. I use fetchmail->procmail to feed Dovecot and I read my mail on clients such as Evolution on (another) Fedora 20 machine, iPad/iPhone or squirrelmail on the web (running on the same Fedora 20 server). The average mail throughput for the whole family is around a couple of hundred messages per day, but each (and every) day I get between 3 and 10 of the following messages: dovecot: imap(mark): Error: Next message unexpectedly corrupted in mbox file /home/mark/mail/MLists/Fail2Ban at 3407473: 1 Time(s) I have googled, but with little success. What I have found seemed to suggest that removing the .index files and allowing Dovecot to rebuild them will solve this. I did: find /home -type f -name "dovecot.index.*" -exec rm -f {} \; but it has made no difference. Can anyone help me solve this please? Thanks in advance Mark

[Dovecot] dsync changing source permission to "root" in backup mode
by Peter Mogensen 27 May '14

27 May '14

Hi, We have dsync failing once in a while when running in "backup" mode. What's strange is that the result is that the file permissions on the *source* machine ends up with the wrong permissions (set to uid 0). Even though the dsync manual clearly says: "Backup mails from default mail location to location2 (or vice versa, if -R parameter is given). No changes are ever done to the source location. Any changes done in destination are discarded." Running: 'dsync -R -o mail_home=/users/maildir backup ssh -c arcfour src-host "dsync -o mail_home=/users/maildir"' I know it's running as root, but even then ... it shouldn't modify the source in "backup" mode ?? The error message from dsync when failing is: dsync-remote(root): Error: Cached message size larger than expected (5292 > 5289) dsync-remote(root): Error: Maildir filename has wrong S value, renamed the file from /users/maildir/.Sent/cur/1381224782.M959810P3574.mail,S=5292,W=5411:2,S to /users/maildir/.Sent/cur/1381224782.M959810P3574.mail,S=5289:2,S dsync-remote(root): Error: Corrupted index cache file /users/maildir/.Sent/dovecot.index.cache: Broken physical size for mail UID 1040 dsync-remote(root): Error: dsync(dst-host): read(/users/maildir/.Sent/cur/1381224782.M959810P3574.mail,S=5292,W=5411:2,S) failed: Cached message size larger than expected (5292 > 5289) /Peter

[Dovecot] Segfault when deselecting virtual folder 2.2.13+ HG TIP
by Colin Knox 27 May '14

27 May '14

Hello, I'm seeing a segfault in the imap process with the current mercurial tip (including changeset 17382 e99cd21e1f92) when selecting a particular virtual mail folder (but no other virtual mailboxes) and then selecting a different mail folder as in the IMAP transcript below. The same segfaults are triggered with IMAP clients. The situation is worse with the 2.2.13 which segfaults when any virtual mailbox is deselected so the recent patch helps partially. Configuration summary, IMAP session in gbd including backtrace and virtual mailbox spec follow. Any ideas what's causing this?

[Dovecot] Odd ownership of the dovecot-uidlist file
by dclist.hook＠hook.net.nz 27 May '14

27 May '14

Hi, We have just recently switched from Courier to Dovecot for both IMAAP and POP access for our shared hosting platform, and while the issues we have been seeing with Courier have gone away a new one has popped up. Unfortunately googling for an answer is difficult as it falls into the ownership and permissions category which people seem to have all the time. But in those cases it always happens, whereas what we are seeing is a random ownership change on the dovecot-uidlist file. Basically what we see is the user is able to login fine for days and then all of a sudden the file has changed ownership to a user under a different domain, what's worse is the other user has not even logged in during that time. Here's a snippet from a case from a month ago which was escalated to us, there are plenty of other examples but its so random we only know its happened when the customer complains or we happen to watch the logs, the current help desk procedure when the customer calls is to just fix the ownership of the file. -- 8<-- Mar 25 11:18:05 brio dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<accounts@DOMAIN1>, method=PLAIN, rip=IP, lip=IP, mpid=21739, TLS, session=<mwQLnGH1ZAB2XalI> Mar 25 11:18:08 brio dovecot: pop3(accounts@DOMAIN1): Disconnected: Logged out top=0 (0 b), retr=4 (274142 b), messages=27 (10797760 b), del=0 Mar 25 11:19:24 brio dovecot: pop3(accounts@DOMAIN1): Error: open(/mnt/spool/keepers/t/DOMAIN1/accounts/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist) failed: Permission denied Mar 25 11:19:24 brio dovecot: pop3(accounts@DOAMIN1): Error: open(/mnt/spool/keepers/t/DOMAIN1/accounts/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist) failed: Permission denied -- 8<-- In this case the ownership of the file was: -rw------- 1 jacqui-30747 DOMAIN2 48839 Mar 25 10:31 dovecot-uidlist when it should be: -rw------- 1 accounts-25105 DOMAIN1 48839 Mar 25 10:32 dovecot-uidlist As you can see both the user and the group have changed to a different user as if that user had recreated the file. Its worth noting that the parent directory does not change: drwx------ 8 accounts-25105 DOMAIN1 4096 Mar 25 10:31 . so this user should not even be able to access this file. It would be great if someone can give us some hints where the problem maybe as this has us stumped. Some more detail if it helps: root@brio:~# dovecot -n # 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 7.2 auth_mechanisms = plain login cram-md5 apop auth_username_chars = abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ01234567890.-_@& default_process_limit = 3000 disable_plaintext_auth = no lock_method = dotlock mail_fsync = always mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/home/indexes/%1d/%n@%d mail_nfs_index = yes mail_nfs_storage = yes mail_plugins = " quota" maildir_stat_dirs = yes mmap_disable = yes namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = INBOX. separator = . subscriptions = yes } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql-cram.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { quota = maildir:User quota } protocols = " imap pop3" service imap-login { inet_listener imap25 { port = 25143 } } service imap-postlogin { executable = script-login -d /usr/local/bin/postlogin.sh } service imap { executable = imap imap-postlogin } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop325 { port = 25110 } } service pop3 { executable = pop3 imap-postlogin } ssl_cert = </var/www/mailadmin/ssl/cert.pem ssl_crypto_device = dynamic ssl_key = </var/www/mailadmin/ssl/mailx.hosts.net.nz.key userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql-cram.conf.ext driver = sql } verbose_proctitle = yes protocol imap { imap_capability = +XHOST_brio imap_logout_format = bytes=%i/%o mail_max_userip_connections = 50 mail_plugins = " quota imap_quota" } protocol pop3 { mail_max_userip_connections = 10 pop3_lock_session = no pop3_logout_format = top=%t (%p b), retr=%r (%b b), messages=%m (%s b), del=%d pop3_save_uidl = yes pop3_uidl_format = %f } root@brio:~# dpkg -l|grep dovecot ii dovecot-core 1:2.1.7-7 amd64 secure mail server that supports mbox, maildir, dbox and mdbox mailboxes ii dovecot-imapd 1:2.1.7-7 amd64 secure IMAP server that supports mbox, maildir, dbox and mdbox mailboxes ii dovecot-mysql 1:2.1.7-7 amd64 MySQL support for Dovecot ii dovecot-pop3d 1:2.1.7-7 amd64 secure POP3 server that supports mbox, maildir, dbox and mdbox mailboxes Mailbox storage is done over various NFS stores, however each user has a specific NFS store Connections are load balanced using LVS and keepalived over approx 10 real servers, persistant connections are setup so that a single user should only hit a single dovecot server (this is different from our courier setup due to the known NFS limitations with dovecot) We also have IMAP indexes stored on the dovecot servers ext3 file system itself rather than NFS. Each server is setup and maintained by puppet, and any one of the servers may see the issue. All servers are x86 with at least 2Gb of RAM User information comes from a MySQL database, and testing the SQL statements only ever return the correct record. Exim is writing to the Maildir with the correct permissions, and after fixing the ownership of the file dovecot can read and change the mailboxes. We do have a postlogin.sh script which runs after authentication to convert the old courier files over to the dovecot ones, this only happens however when the process has not run before (it appears dovecot deletes the files and recreates them, so we use a state file). Adding debugging to the script shows its running as the correct user at the last successful login. It does not run at all after the ownership has changed. There are some users who this is happening regularly, and other users who it has happened to only once. It is also not just limited to POP3, although this is where we commonly see it as dovecot accepts the IMAP connection if the ownership on a sub folders uidlist is different. If you need any further detail, I can provide it. Debugging could be much more difficult because of how random it is, while it can happen daily there have been periods of up to one week before its seen. Any help in finding this would be greatly appreciated, Cheers, Bruce

[Dovecot] Incorrect IMAP search results when FTS/Squat indexes are present with 2.1.7
by Robert L Mathews 27 May '14

27 May '14

We recently upgraded from Dovecot 1.2.15 (on Debian squeeze) to Dovecot 2.1.7 (on Debian wheezy/stable). For now, we continue to use FTS with Squat indexes. We'd like to eventually switch to Lucene but it's not yet supported in Debian stable. Since upgrading to 2.1.7, we've seen some problems with IMAP search results when an FTS Squat index is present (i.e., when the "dovecot.index.search" and "dovecot.index.search.uids" files are present). If it's present, even header searches sometimes give incorrect results (such as searches on FROM or SUBJECT headers). I'm wondering if this is a known issue with 2.1.7 and whether upgrading to a later version of Dovecot with Squat is likely to fix this (due to, say, <http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2012-June/020881.html>), or if Squat in all versions is a lost cause and I need to switch to Lucene. I can demonstrate the problem by showing the results of three searches on my mailbox. First, here are the correct results for header FTS searches when no "dovecot.index.search[.uids]" file is present: ---- .

[Dovecot] LDAP: allow pop3, restrict imap
by Andreas Schulze 26 May '14

26 May '14

Hello, I have all userdata in a ldapserver. Every user has the right to use pop3. There is no explicit attribute allowing that. It's simply possible. Now I like to add imap. For a starting period I like to restrict, who may use imap. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/RestrictAccess mention a solution where I could modify ldap pass_filter. But that require an attribute "service=pop3" to be present in the ldap servers. In my case I have to add it for every existing user :-/ No way... Are there other options? Thanks, Andreas

[Dovecot] socket /var/spool/postfix/private/auth not created
by lister171254 26 May '14

26 May '14

I'm on Ubuntu 13.10 and followed these instructions http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL to configure Dovecot for Postfix. No matter what I try, the listener is not created. <http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/file/n48182/32.png> dovecot -n does not show the listener (I guess that's why its not created) This is the extract from the /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf --------------- service auth { # auth_socket_path points to this userdb socket by default. It's typically # used by dovecot-lda, doveadm, possibly imap process, etc. Users that have # full permissions to this socket are able to get a list of all usernames and # get the results of everyone's userdb lookups. # # The default 0666 mode allows anyone to connect to the socket, but the # userdb lookups will succeed only if the userdb returns an "uid" field that # matches the caller process's UID. Also if caller's uid or gid matches the # socket's uid or gid the lookup succeeds. Anything else causes a failure. # # To give the caller full permissions to lookup all users, set the mode to # something else than 0666 and Dovecot lets the kernel enforce the # permissions (e.g. 0777 allows everyone full permissions). unix_listener auth-userdb { #mode = 0666 #user = #group = } # Postfix smtp-auth unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0600 user = postfix group = postfix } # Auth process is run as this user. #user = $default_internal_user } ---------------- Postfix is not involved in this right now as I expect the socket to be created when I restart dovecot. Can't find any meaningfull errors in the logs either. I hope I'm missing something obvious Thanks, Leo -- View this message in context: http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/socket-var-spool-postfix-private-auth-… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Copies of outgoing emails in the Sent folder
by Dmitry Podkovyrkin 26 May '14

26 May '14

Hi! My mail server works in tandem: Dovecot (IMAP) + Postfix. How can I configure in Gmail: Outgoing email copied to the Sent folder using postfix without mail client? This question is for the mailing list for Postfix? Mail client itself copies outgoing messages in the folder Sent, but the messages are large, and the server is far away. And to transmit email twice for sending and copying is not effective. Sorry for my English ). -- Regards Dmitry Podkovyrkin mobile: +7 922 20 56 756 email: dmirty(a)rutelecom.company skype: dmitryrw

[Dovecot] Multilayer mail handling
by Jimmy Thrasibule 26 May '14

26 May '14

Hi, I'm wondering what is the correct architecture and configuration to setup a multilayer mail handling? What I have in mind is something more like what we can found in Web platform architectures. 1. First layer does first checks: user authentication and SSL offloading. If all checks are OK request is proxied to layer 2. 2. Second layer, will actually handle the IMAP/POP3 connection proxied by layer 1, no major checks should be done as already made by layer 1. 3. Finally, layer 3 to do some virus checks on the emails and maybe some other things I can't think about. Do you have some pointers on how to set up such a mail stack where each layer can be on multiple other hosts? Best regards, Jimmy

[Dovecot] Index cache errors worse with 2.2.x
by Alexander 'Leo' Bergolth 25 May '14

25 May '14

Hi! I am getting "Cached message size smaller than expected" errors since dovecot-2.1.x. Until now, I thought that those errors don't do any harm, I assumed that the cache will just be rebuilt after the error had been detected. However, since dovecot 2.2.x (I tried 2.2.7 and 2.2.10), the errors sometimes seem to actually cause mail access to fail. With dovecot-2.1.1, only the first two messages were logged, since using 2.2.7 and 2.2.10, the "read ... failed: Invalid argument" sometimes appear: -------------------- 8< -------------------- May 7 17:03:52 samba dovecot: imap(xyz): Error: Cached message size smaller than expected (2246 < 2247) May 7 17:03:52 samba dovecot: imap(xyz): Error: Corrupted index cache file /home/xyz/mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.cache: Broken physical size for mail UID 11277 May 7 17:03:52 samba dovecot: imap(xyz): Error: read(/var/mail/xyz) failed: Invalid argument May 7 17:03:52 samba dovecot: imap(xyz): Error: read(/var/mail/xyz) failed: Invalid argument (uid=11277) -------------------- 8< -------------------- I am using dovecot on RHEL6 with mbox mailboxes. Message size differences are always 1 byte. Any hints would be appreciated! Cheers, --leo P.S.: Those errors occur some times a day and affect different users..

[Dovecot] dsync incredibly slow
by Alan McGinlay 23 May '14

23 May '14

Hi! While performing a dsync from cyrus imap to dovecot 2.2.12, dsync seems to stop for perhaps a minute without disk / cpu / memory activity (that I can see). This happens several times per sync per user so it takes an enormous amount of time to sync just a couple of gigs of mail. dsync -D -v -o mail_fsync=never mirror -f -R -u user(a)example.com imapc: What could possibly be the cause of this slowness? Is it protocol dependent or just dsync it's self? Thanks!

[Dovecot] Dovecot ontop of glusterfs issue.
by Eliezer Croitoru 23 May '14

23 May '14

Hey, I am testing Glusterfs as a storage backend for dovecot as a LDA and imap server. I have seen similar lines in the logs to these: May 21 10:46:01 mailgw dovecot: imap(eliezer(a)ngtech.co.il): Warning: Created dotlock file's timestamp is different than current time (1400658105 vs 1400658361): /home/vmail/ngtech.co.il/eliezer/Maildir/.Mailing_lists.ceph_users/dovecot-uidlist May 21 10:46:01 mailgw dovecot: imap(eliezer(a)ngtech.co.il): Error: Transaction log /home/vmail/ngtech.co.il/eliezer/Maildir/dovecot.index.log: duplicate transaction log sequence (2713) The volume is mounted only by one server with ubutntu 14.04. I have seen threads and posts about similar issue with nfs. I want to try to debug the issue but note that with the same settings of the server nfs worked fine but slower. dovecot -n output: http://pastebin.centos.org/9626/ The glusterfs is a replicated volume constructed of two bricks which is mounted only on one dovecot server. All three servers are using the same ntp pool and are synced. Any direction is better then the state I am now. Thanks, Eliezer

[Dovecot] director with same director / backend servers
by Will Yardley 23 May '14

23 May '14

I know this has been covered somewhat, but I'm still not totally clear. I'm trying to setup a 3 node cluster with 3 directors and 3 backend systems. This post (from 2012) suggests that proxy_maybe should work with director: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2012-December/069806.html However, these two posts (from 2013) seem to say that it will not: http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2013-November/093776.html http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2013-November/093809.html When I try to just set =proxy_maybe=y in my LDAP config's pass_attrs, and not have an explicit 'director' listener for pop3-login / imap-login, it complains about lack of a host. May 22 14:28:08 XXXX dovecot: pop3-login: Error: proxy: host not given: user=<XXXXXXX>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Guessing the answer is "no", but is there any way (with v 2.x) to have one regular "listener" for imap / pop3, and one "director" listener for each as well, using the same instance of Dovecot? Has anyone gotten this to work successfully? I'm using LDAP, and do not want to explicitly specify a host for each username, I just want director to balance users across the 3 hosts. Obviously, I can just create two instances, but not only does this make the config more convoluted (especially following the convention of having the config files broken out into a bunch of files), but means I have to modify the default init script to really do it cleanly (something we were doing on the older iteration of this system that I had really been hoping to avoid). I'm assuming it's not possible to simply have the listeners for 'foo-login' execute something different depending on the port? I tried a couple different ways of configuring this, but it didn't seem to work. Dovecot is version 2.0.9 from RHEL 6. w

[Dovecot] When the subject portion of an e-mail contains a control character, dovecot.sieve terminates unexpectatedly.
by Atsuko Tanaka 22 May '14

22 May '14

Hello. We have currently set dovecot.sieve to insert the text "[SPAM]" at the beginning of an e-mail's subject when it's X-Spam-Score is above 80%. After we set our system as stated the following errors occur: 1) When an e-mail's subject contains control characters like [Ctrl+V|^V], dovecot.sieve terminates with an error and an e-mail is not able to be sent. When a MIME encoded Subject like [ＴＥＳＴ^VＭＡＩＬ] is sent we're not able to edit the subject and dovecot ends with an error. This is a sample of the data that was used in testing. Subject: =?ISO-2022-JP?B?GyRCI1QjRSNTI1QbKEIWGyRCI00jQSNJI0wbKEI=?= X-Spam-Score: 100.00% ↓ Subject: =?ISO-2022-JP?B?GyRCI1QjRSNTI1QbKEIWGyRCI00jQSNJI0wbKEI=?= X-Spam-Score: 100.00% This is the log generated by the data above. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sieve: info: started log at May 02 10:46:22. main script: line 14: error: addheader action: specified value `[SPAM] ＴＥＳＴ?・・' is invalid. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Aside from [Ctrl + V] the following control charcters also cause errors: backspace Ctrl + A Ctrl + C Ctrl + [ Ctrl + X Ctrl + Y 2) When an e-mail's subject line contains a "\0" character, everything following the null character is deleted. When a MIME encoded Subject is sent, for example "ＴＥＳＴ\0ＭＡＩＬ", the subject becomes "[SPAM]ＴＥＳＴ", the characters after the NULL character are deleted and dovecot.sieve ends normally.

[Dovecot] Sieve fileinto extension and redirect action

Hello, Is there any way to limit the use of the "redirect" action (local user only or silent ignore) as provisioned by the RFC in the Pigeonhole implementation ? The only way I found for the moment is to completely disable the fileinto extension which hardly beat the users experience. "redirect" is forbidden by my organization policy. Regards, Emmanuel.

[Dovecot] LMTP hostname ignoring ENV variables
by G H 21 May '14

21 May '14

I am having an issue with LMTP appending the local hostname to received mail from Postfix. I either want to append localhost, a custom string, or nothing at all. Looking through the source code, I believe I should be able to set "export DOVECOT_HOSTNAME" and "export DOVECOT_HOSTDOMAIN" in my initscript to override the hostname set in lmtp/commands.c, client_get_added_headers() I'm using Centos 5; my hostname is mailtest1.atest.qq -- it is not defined in /etc/hosts. The added header is below: Received: from mail.mailorxyz.de by mailtest1.atest.qq (Dovecot) with LMTP id sreUK1+sfFOseQAAPYI4hw for <admin(a)mailorxyz.de>; Wed, 21 May 2014 13:39:03 +0000 Received: by mail.mailorxyz.de (Postfix, from userid 97) id CC743116AB5; Wed, 21 May 2014 13:39:03 +0000 (UTC) I have the following defined in /etc/init.d/dovecot: export DOVECOT_HOSTDOMAIN=dovecot.mailorxyz.de export DOVECOT_HOSTNAME=dovecot.mailorxyz.de Am I missing something or did I misunderstand the source code?

Does the first occurence show some code being excessive somehow? Thanks. MU

[Dovecot] allow_nets + default + ldap
by Andreas Schulze 21 May '14

21 May '14

Hello, I'm playing with allow_nets function. It is really cool! In a filebased passwd backend you simply add "allow_nets=192.0.2.143/32" as mentioned in http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/AllowNets But if I use an LDAP backend it looks different. Following http://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP/AuthBinds and http://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP/Userdb#Attribute_templates_.28v2… my pass_attrs looks this: pass_attrs = =user=%{ldap:uid}, \ =allow_nets=%{ldap:allownets} Using this syntax I could add an attribute "allownets" in the ldapserver to limit access for a user. A problem occour if the attribute is not present. For example if a user should not be limited or only some but not any user should be limited. So I extend my pass_attrs with a default. pass_attrs = =user=%{ldap:uid}, \ =allow_nets=%{ldap:allownets:10.0.0.0/8} Again, that's fine. Any user was allowed to connect from my private network. But then some users connect via ipv6. I tried to extend my default to pass_attrs = =user=%{ldap:uid}, \ =allow_nets=%{ldap:allownets:10.0.0.0/8,fec0::/16} That syntax, a comma separated list, produces errors no matter if quoting using " or ' or no quoting at all. So I looked at the source (thanks, it's open!) and wrote a little patch to allow simple defaults: - ALL -> allow any address - NONE -> deny any address Now I could write pass_attrs = =user=%{ldap:uid}, =allow_nets=%{ldap:allownets:ALL} or pass_attrs = =user=%{ldap:uid}, =allow_nets=%{ldap:allownets:NONE} to allow or deny any ldap account not having an attribute allownets. Maybe there are other solutions, but that's my way... Andreas

[Dovecot] Dict SQL lookups without username_field
by Andrew Beverley 20 May '14

20 May '14

Dear all, Is it possible to perform dict lookups with a SQL backend, without specifying the username_field in the SQL query? I am using the dict to retrieve a Sieve script. My dict configuration looks like this: map { pattern = priv/sieve/data/$id table = sieve_scripts username_field = email value_field = data fields { id = $id } } I don't want to specify the username though, as the sieve scripts are valid for all users. However, when I remove "username_field" I get the error "data with id `1' for script `main script' not found at path priv/sieve/data/1" Thanks, Andy

[Dovecot] Performing an action on mail receipt
by Andrew Beverley 20 May '14

20 May '14

Dear all, I would like to perform an action for certain users each time a mail arrives via LMTP. I would like to send an email notification to an external email address when new mail has arrived for certain users (note: not a forward). I am assuming that creating my own plugin using the existing "notify" plugin is the way to go. However, before I go down that route, I'd like to check that is the best approach? Or would it be better to perform this sort of thing before the mail reaches Dovecot? Assuming writing a plugin is answer, do they have to be written in C? Dovecot version: 2.1.7 Thanks, Andy

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.2.13+ and master user db
by Juan C. Blanco 20 May '14

20 May '14

Hello, I'm upgrading one of our servers to the last HG 2.2.13 versión and I've found some problems with our configuration which has been working fine with previous versions. We have a LDAP userdb for the users and a master userdb for user assistance, Until now the definition of usersdb in 10-auth.conf was: !include auth-master.conf.ext !include auth-system.conf.ext !include auth-ldap.conf.ext With the 2.2.12 version this worked fine but with 2.2.13+ version the LDAP users can't login in dovecot (IMAP), however the master users can login fine. However, if I comment out the master userdb or change the order, i.e. !include auth-system.conf.ext !include auth-ldap.conf.ext !include auth-master.conf.ext In this case LDAP and master users can login normally. Is this configuration change required for the new version or it's a bug? Follows the log sections for both configurations Regards Juan C.

[Dovecot] / vs. </
by Boris 19 May '14

19 May '14

The default configuration file for Dovecot in Debian uses: ssl_cert = </path/to/cert I checked my current configuration and I use: ssl_cert =/path/to/cert What is the difference? (pipe?) And is the former better somehow?

[Dovecot] logging of failed SASL usernames
by Reindl Harald 19 May '14

19 May '14

as far as i understand postfix has no way to know the username of such failed logins like below, IMHO dovecot internally does because it verifies against the sql-userdatabase is there a way that dovecot logs the username? after ask the users to change their passwords for safety caused by Heartbleed it was easy to write a tool find forgotten devices in case of IMAP/POP3 but especially Apple clients force to enter the new password seperated for incoming and outgoing server and don't tell the user if things don't work so there is really a need support them and fuzzy logic based on the last successful IMAP/POP3 login from a IP and failed send attempts from the same IP shortly after receive mail leaves a bad taste of only a guess May 18 11:19:09 mail postfix/smtpd[5173]: warning: unknown[177.139.182.86]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: UGFzc3dvcmQ6 May 18 11:19:15 mail postfix/smtpd[5173]: warning: unknown[177.139.182.86]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: UGFzc3dvcmQ6

[Dovecot] Configuration of dovecot 2.0.19 to authenticate users via LDAP
by Danylo Esterman 19 May '14

19 May '14

I am trying to get dovecot 2.0.19 authenticate users via LDAP (OpenLDAP 2.4.28) and using Wireshark to debug the process. It looks like the basic configuration of dovecot is fine, but it doesn't pull it off to send the right request to the LDAP server. First of all, this is how my LDAP-entries look: # ht dn: dc=ht objectClass: top objectClass: dcObject objectClass: organization o: ip dc: ht # admin, ht dn: cn=admin,dc=ht objectClass: simpleSecurityObject objectClass: organizationalRole cn: admin description: LDAP administrator userPassword:: e1NTSEF9cFY1b0ZZVUhack1aRTVvaUg1T3c2cytVWHV4aUNvaHI= # people, ht dn: ou=people,dc=ht objectClass: organizationalUnit objectClass: top ou: people # groups, ht dn: ou=groups,dc=ht objectClass: organizationalUnit objectClass: top ou: groups # ipusers, groups, ht dn: cn=ipusers,ou=groups,dc=ht gidNumber: 500 cn: ipusers objectClass: posixGroup objectClass: top # Max Mustermann, people, ht dn: cn=Max Mustermann,ou=people,dc=ht cn: Max Mustermann givenName: Max gidNumber: 500 homeDirectory: /home/users/mmustormann sn: Mustermann objectClass: inetOrgPerson objectClass: posixAccount objectClass: top uidNumber: 1000 uid: mmustermann userPassword:: e01ENX1ETUYxdWNEeHRxZ3h3NW5pYVhjbVlRPT0= loginShell: /bin/bash mail: mustorm(a)test.com Now, I use the following configuration for dovecot (/etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext) hosts = 10.1.2.1 dn = cn=admin,dc=ht dnpass = a auth_bind = yes auth_bind_userdn = uid=%u,ou=people,dc=ht ldap_version = 3 scope = subtree base = ou=people,dc=ht user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uidNumber=uid,gidNumber=gid user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) This is what I see in Wireshark: http://i.stack.imgur.com/ICzDe.png Dovecot cannot authenticate itself for some reason... If i change the configuration as follows: auth_bind = no #auth_bind_userdn = uid=%u,ou=people,dc=ht Then I get following picture: http://i.stack.imgur.com/tb5vo.png It doesn't pick up the setting base = ou=people,dc=ht. But what is more crucial is that even looking at the whole tree "<ROOT>" wholeSubTree it can't find the required entry. I am really desperate and don't know how to make it work. Can somebody please give me a clue how to solve this problem?

[Dovecot] Signal 11 with dovecot-lda
by Jim Dishaw 19 May '14

19 May '14

dovecot version: 2.2.13 NetBSD 5.1 on an amd64 architecture Based on the log file, I think this problem first manifested itself when I upgrade from 2.2.9 to 2.2.12. I tried to go back to 2.2.9, but I would have had to rollback some of the other dependencies. I built 2.2.13 and the problem still exists. Mail gets successfully delivered, but the sender get a non-delivery message. I've hacked a temporary workaround to prevent the non-delivery from being sent by having the bounce service run discard instead of bounce.

[Dovecot] RFE: please add Return-Path: to sieve sent mail headers
by Maciej Uhlig 18 May '14

18 May '14

May I ask to add Return-Path: some meaningful header line to sieve sent mail headers in vacation message? Now the header line isn't generated at all and the effect is as follows: on receiving MTA: 2014-05-09T15:04:32+02:00 host/ip postfix/qmgr[2408]: 41F2F6024E: from=<>, size=900, nrcpt=1 (queue active) in received mail body: Return-Path: <> Would be nice to get: Return-Path: <user@domain> Copy of From: header line could be sufficient. Thanks. MU

[Dovecot] antispam plugin doesn't recognize spam folder
by Paul DiSciascio 18 May '14

18 May '14

After a recent upgrade to dovecot 2.2.9 (caused by an ubuntu upgrade to 14.04), the antispam plugin has stopped recognizing my spam folders as spam. I see the plugin initializes properly, but when moving a message, the mailbox_is_spam() function always returns 0. The version of dovecot-antispam that ships with ubuntu is 2.0+20130822-2build1. I also compiled the latest version in the git repository (last update 9/12/2013) and had the same results. This worked fine prior to the upgrade, with dovecot version 2.0.19 and dovecot-antispam version 2.0+20120225-2. Here are the logs from initialization: May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: plugin initialising (2.0-7-gabdad24) May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: verbose debug enabled May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: "SPAM" is exact match spam folder May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: "Spam" is exact match spam folder May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: "Junk" is exact match spam folder May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: no unsure folders May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: "trash" is exact match trash folder May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: "Trash" is exact match trash folder May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: "Deleted Items" is exact match trash folder May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: "Deleted Messages" is exact match trash folder May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: dspam binary set to /usr/bin/dspam May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: dspam extra arg --user May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: dspam extra arg thenut(a)bytemonkey.net May 18 07:48:45 lebeau imap: antispam: signature header line is "X-DSPAM-Signature" And then from the message move: May 18 07:50:06 lebeau imap: antispam: mailbox_is_unsure(SPAM): 0 May 18 07:50:06 lebeau imap: antispam: mailbox_is_trash(INBOX): 0 May 18 07:50:06 lebeau imap: antispam: mailbox_is_trash(SPAM): 0 May 18 07:50:06 lebeau imap: antispam: mail copy: from trash: 0, to trash: 0 May 18 07:50:06 lebeau imap: antispam: mailbox_is_spam(INBOX): 0 May 18 07:50:06 lebeau imap: antispam: mailbox_is_spam(SPAM): 0 May 18 07:50:06 lebeau imap: antispam: mailbox_is_unsure(INBOX): 0 May 18 07:50:06 lebeau imap: antispam: mail copy: src spam: 0, dst spam: 0, src unsure: 0 Clearly mailbox_is_spam(SPAM) should return 1.

[Dovecot] Feature Request doveadm acl command
by Thomas Leuxner 18 May '14

I have switched to global ACLs for public namespaces which eases their administration greately. Now while running housekeeping scripts (e.g. expunge old mails/archive mails etc.) this requires temporary overriding the global ACLs with mailbox specifix ACLs to expunge mails. The scripts would then revoke the temporary changes (delete flags) and the global ACL would take precedence again. Ideally I would want to get rid of the 'dovecot-acl' file after the scripts ran so the global ACL kicks in. There seems to be no interface command to purge 'dovecot-acl' files so this is handled by the scripts for now: [...] # Get actual path of dovecot-acl file and remove it as it is handled by global ACL acl_path=$(doveadm acl debug -u $mailbox_owner "$source_mailbox_base/$1" 2>&1 | sed -n "s/$.*$$debug_acl_mailbox_path//p") [ -f $acl_path/dovecot-acl ] && rm $acl_path/dovecot-acl It would be nice if purging a specific dovecot-acl would be handled by doveadm to avoid custom-scripting.

[Dovecot] User not found when using shadow for passdb
by John J. Stimson III 17 May '14

17 May '14

I am getting "user unknown" when trying to connect to the dovecot server using IMAP. The client gets an authentication failed message and does not download mail. The host system uses shadow passwords in /etc/shadow. I would like to use the same passwords for IMAP sessions, so I have set the passdb driver to shadow. The system is Slackware, which does not use PAM. Here is the dovecot version and configuration output: # dovecot -n # 2.1.17: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.6.5 i686 Slackware 13.1.0 auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_verbose = yes namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = blocking=no driver = shadow } service auth { unix_listener auth-userdb { user = root } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = blocking=no driver = passwd } Here are the dovecot auth_passwd_debug level log messages when the client tries to connect: May 2 09:05:07 harlie dovecot: auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/auth May 2 09:05:07 harlie dovecot: auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=22181) May 2 09:05:07 harlie dovecot: auth: Debug: client in: AUTH^I1^IPLAIN^Iservice=imap^Isecured^Isession=ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP^Ilip=96.229.223.7^Irip=10.0.0.181^Ilport=993^Irport=51898^Iresp=zxywvutsrqponmlkji== May 2 09:05:07 harlie dovecot: auth: Debug: shadow(john,10.0.0.181,<ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP>): lookup May 2 09:05:07 harlie dovecot: auth: shadow(john,10.0.0.181,<ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP>): unknown user May 2 09:05:09 harlie dovecot: auth: Debug: client passdb out: FAIL^I1^Iuser=john May 2 09:05:09 harlie dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (auth failed, 1 attempts in 2 secs): user=<john>, method=PLAIN, rip=10.0.0.181, lip=96.229.223.7, TLS, session=<ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP> The user john is a real account on the host machine and has entries in both /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow.

[Dovecot] Problems setting up extprograms in combination with crm114
by Patrick Winnertz 16 May '14

16 May '14

Hello, I've troubles to configure sieve correctly to call the mailreaver script in order to parse mails for spam. I've the task to migrate a existing procmail setup to a sieve setup, and to keep the mail filtering step within sieve. I've added in /usr/lib/dovecot/sieve-filters/ a script called "mailreaver", which contains basically only one line - calling the right mailreaver.crm script: exec /usr/share/crm114/mailreaver.crm -u ~/.crm114 This script is then called in the sieve file using "filter "mailreaver". Indeed the script is invoked for every mail, however the signature is appended at the very end of the mail, not at the end of the header. Invoking the /usr/lib/dovecot/sieve-filters/mailreaver manually this way: cat test-email | /usr/lib/dovecot/sieve-filters/mailreaver or this way: /usr/lib/dovecot/sieve-filters/mailreaver < test-email results in both cases in a correct formatted way, so I don't know what is going wrong here. Adding a | tee /tmp/test-output resulted in the complete mail in /tmp/test-output, as I first thought that maybe the headers are not piped into the script - but this seems to be not the case obviously. Does anybody has a clue, as this seems not to be related to crm114 (as it obviously works on cmd), but to the way sieve calls this script. Or it would help to understand how the external filtering program is called - maybe my assumptions are wrong here (or I've simply missunderstood the documentation available online). Greetings Winnie

[Dovecot] v2.2.13 released
by Timo Sirainen 15 May '14

15 May '14

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.13.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2.13.tar.gz.sig A few minor changes since v2.2.13.rc1, mainly making the Pigeonhole tests pass. * Fixed a DoS attack against imap/pop3-login processes. If SSL/TLS handshake was started but wasn't finished, the login process attempted to eventually forcibly disconnect the client, but failed to do it correctly. This could have left the connections hanging arond for a long time. (Affected Dovecot v1.1+) + mdbox: Added mdbox_purge_preserve_alt setting to keep the file within alt storage during purge. (Should become enforced in v2.3.0?) + fts: Added support for parsing attachments via Apache Tika. Enable with: plugin { fts_tika = http://tikahost:9998/tika/ } + virtual plugin: Delay opening backend mailboxes until it's necessary. This requires mailbox_list_index=yes to work. (Currently IMAP IDLE command still causes all backend mailboxes to be opened.) + mail_never_cache_fields=* means now to disable all caching. This may be a useful optimization as doveadm/dsync parameter for some admin tasks which shouldn't really update the cache file. + IMAP: Return SPECIAL-USE flags always for LSUB command. - pop3 server was still crashing in v2.2.12 with some settings - maildir: Various fixes and improvements to handling compressed mails, especially when they have broken/missing S=sizes in filenames. - fts-lucene, fts-solr: Fixed crash on search when the index contained duplicate entries. - Many fixes and performance improvements to dsync and replication - director was somewhat broken when there were exactly two directors in the ring. It caused errors about "weak users" getting stuck. - mail_attachment_dir: Attachments with the last base64-encoded line longer than the rest wasn't handled correctly. - IMAP: SEARCH/SORT PARTIAL was handled completely wrong in v2.2.11+ - acl: Global ACL file handling was broken when multiple entries matched the mailbox name. (Only the first entry was used.)

It caused errors about "weak users" getting stuck. - mail_attachment_dir: Attachments with the last base64-encoded line longer than the rest wasn't handled correctly. - IMAP: SEARCH/SORT PARTIAL was handled completely wrong in v2.2.11+ - acl: Global ACL file handling was broken when multiple entries matched the mailbox name.

[Dovecot] 2.2.12 RPM Needed
by Asai 15 May '14

15 May '14

Greetings, I'm not very experienced in building Source RPMs and we're in need of a Dovecot RPM for version 2.2.12 for CentOS 5. It seems that the ATRPMs repo maintained by Axel Thimm hasn't seen much activity lately and the task of updating a source RPM is more than I have time for as a busy developer who does systems admin on the side. Could anybody recommend another repo where there would be the latest Dovecot binaries? Or perhaps tell me of any gotchas and catches which might arise if I go ahead and build 2.2.12 from source over the RPM I currently have installed (2.2.10)? Thanks. -- --Asai

[Dovecot] Pigeonhole Sieve: Vacation Extension answer to every E-Mail
by Götz Reinicke - IT Koordinator 14 May '14

14 May '14

Hi, dont ask :) but I have two accounts for which I have to configure an auto reply for any e-mail send to it. As far as I understand Sieve yet, I do have to set sieve_vacation_min_period = 0 in the dovecot config and set the days value in the sieve rule. But as there is a limit of 1 day, I think this is not working. Right? Is there any other way to accomplish that? regards .

[Dovecot] Broken IMAPS Connects Create Lingering imap-login Processes
by Jochen Bern 14 May '14

14 May '14

Hello everyone, we are running a central server (CentOS 6.5, dovecot-2.0.9-7.el6 with a small patch to disable the IMAP CREATE command, and openssl-1.0.1e-16.el6_5.7) and distribute standard client software to customer( site)s. The clients do IMAPS connects in regular intervals (no IDLE, no lingering logins) and authenticate with certs issued by a dedicated PKI ("auth_ssl_username_from_cert = yes" and a static global password). One of the customers has a major networking problem that hasn't been fully analyzed yet. Sniffing his IMAPS connects on the server side, I see no (necessarily fragmented) TLSv1 Client Cert + Key Exchange happen; instead, after ~60s, we receive a single packet with "TLSv1 Certificate Verify, Change Cipher Spec, Encrypted Handshake Message" *and* the TCP FIN+PSH+ACK flags set. The problem I'ld like to ask for help with here is that dovecot's imap-login process doesn't terminate when the FIN is received, or when the IMAP protocol's inactivity timeout is reached, it takes *more than two hours* for it to go away. Because of that, this single client racks up 1100+ processes (counting against dovecot's configured limits), TCP connections, and the associated RAM usage. (Since the client cert is obviously never received, the default mail_max_userip_connections of 10 doesn't come into play, either.) Is there any way - short of hexing a negative feedback loop straight into the iptables - to prevent this kind of buildup? Kind regards, J.

[Dovecot] imapc problem
by FUSTE Emmanuel 14 May '14

14 May '14

hello, I have some trouble when trying to migrate from another imap server to dovecot with imapc/dsync/doveadm. when running "doveadm -o imapc_user=foo -o imapc_password=bar backup -R -u localuser imapc:" all is ok. But when running "doveadm -o imapc_user=foo -o imapc_password=bar sync -R -u localuser imapc:", all local mods are overwritten. For example deleting a message or moving it to trash and it reappear in INBOX (and disappear from trash if moved there). If I try without the reverse flag "-R", local delete reappear two times after two or more sync. If I try without the reverse flag "-R", a message moved to trash is propagated to trash too, but reappear as many times as you "sync" on the two sides in the INBOX. With other users, first "backup -R" is ok but on next sync or backup try, I get : dsync(other_user): Error: Mailbox INBOX sync: mailbox_delete failed: INBOX can't be deleted. Other IMAP server is CriticalPath 8.5.137. Any clue ?? Emmanuel.

[Dovecot] dovecot shared folder

[Dovecot] Released Pigeonhole v0.4.3 for Dovecot v2.2.13.
by Stephan Bosch 12 May '14

12 May '14

Hello Dovecot users, Now that Dovecot v2.2.13 is released, I can release a new Pigeonhole. Due to changes in Dovecot, this Pigeonhole release will not compile cleanly against older Dovecot releases. This release is mainly about bugfixes. One notable addition is that I have updated the "vnd.dovecot.duplicate" extension to the new IETF draft "duplicate" extension. Changelog v0.4.3: * Editheader extension: Made control characters allowed for editheader, except NUL. Before, this would cause a runtime error. + Upgraded Dovecot-specific Sieve "vnd.dovecot.duplicate" extension to match the new draft "duplicate" extension. - Fixed sieve_result_global_log_error to log only as i_info in administrator log (syslog) if executed from multiscript context. - Sieve redirect extension: Adjusted loop detection to show leniency to resent messages. - Sieve include extension: Fixed problem with handling of duplicate includes with different parameters :once or :optional. - Sieve spamtest/virustest extensions: Tests were erroneously performed against the original message. When used together with extprograms filter to add the spam headers, the changes were not being used by the spamtest and virustest extensions. - Deprecated Sieve notify extension: Fixed segfault problems in message string substitution. - ManageSieve: Fixed active link verification to handle redundant path slashes correctly. - Sieve vacation extension: - Fixed interaction of sieve_vacation_dont_check_recipient with sieve_vacation_send_from_recipient setting. - Fixed log message for discarded response. - Sieve extprograms plugin: - Forgot to disable the alarm() timeouts set for script execution. - Fixed fd leak and handling of output shutdown. - Fixed 'Bad filedescriptor' error occurring when disconnecting script client. - Made sure that programs are never forked with root privileges. The release is available as follows: http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.3.tar… http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.3.tar… Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot v2.x wiki for more information. Have fun testing this new release and don't hesitate to notify me when there are any problems. Regards, -- Stephan Bosch stephan(a)rename-it.nl

[Dovecot] 2.2.12: Panic: file mail-index.c: line 380 (mail_index_keywords_unref): assertion failed: (keywords->refcount > 0)
by Leho Kraav 12 May '14

I upgraded 2.1 -> 2.2 something like a week ago because I needed INDEXPVT. Not sure if this crash started immediately or not, noticed it today looking at journalctl. Backtrace http://bpaste.net/raw/181944/ and pasted below. This seems to crash on every IMAP connection made, so any ideas for a possible client-level workaround are quite welcome until dovecot code improves here. root@server ~ $ dovecot -n # 2.2.12:

[Dovecot] IMAP disconnect before greeting / banner
by Benoit Panizzon 12 May '14

12 May '14

Hello We have a server on which we run multiple instances of dovecot. Each instance serving a domain and binding to a specific IP. The whole thing on three servers using the proxy ability and replication of dovecot. Now one domain has more users and we start seeing very strange behaviour. As soon as about 45 users have connected to the imap service ip of that instance, the server accepts the connections and then disconnects without showing the IMAP banner. This happens on all of our three servers and only for that specific domain (which has most connections). While this occurs, there is no problem with the other instances for other domains on the same physical machine. So the database backend etc. are not the issue. While this occurs, there is no hint of what goes wrong in the logfiles. I did even set mail_debug=yes but that still does not produce any output of why clients get disconnected prior to the server displaying the banner. Any hints on where I could start looking for the error, or get more debug output as with mail_debug=yes ? -Benoit-

[Dovecot] ManageSieve OOM with Huge Folders
by Fabian Peter 12 May '14

12 May '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi all, we're experiencing "Out of Memory" Problems caused by Sieve-Filters delivering mail to huge IMAP folders. From the logs, I'm beginning to think the problem is that the sieve/lmtp process loads the "dovecot.index.cache" file apparently twice into memory to do something with it. We've set our memory limit per process to 256MB - the cache file of the folders we're having issues with is exactly 128MB. Mails coming in that should be filtered to these folders are being denied, an error is being logged. Apparently, there would be two easy solutions to this: increasing memory OR decreasing folder size. Both are not possible. Increasing memory just means we will have this issue again in some weeks. Deacreasing mailbox size isn't possible since the folders contain archived system mails from our backend software which need to be kept for a while. Currently, we're creating a new folder each time we reach this limit, but that isn't exactly the best way to go for the future. In the end, the folders are for archiving purposes and therefore should not be managed at all since all this is automated. I hope there's some obvious switch I've just not seen in the config. I actually can't imagine that this is default or wanted behaviour since there must be people with large inboxes and sieve filters that either also have this problem or don't have it since they fixed it. The problem clearly is reproducable. Each time the cache file hits 128MB - which happens at around 200k mails in the folder - (with our current setting of 256MB memory limit per process), things go down and our mailqueues reach 10k undelivered mails within a few hours.

[Dovecot] v2.2.13.rc1 vs. Pigeonhole
by Tamsy 12 May '14

12 May '14

Server: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 32bit There seems to be an incompatibility when compiling Pigeonhole against Dovecot v2.2.13.rc1. # make check with Pigeonhole throws up the following error message: <snip> Test case: ./tests/extensions/editheader/addheader.svtest: 1: Test 'Addheader - first' SUCCEEDED 2: Test 'Addheader - last' SUCCEEDED 3: Test 'Addheader - framed' SUCCEEDED 4: Test 'Addheader - folded' SUCCEEDED 5: Test 'Addheader - newlines' FAILED: wrong first header content in redirected mail 6: Test 'Addheader - implicit keep' SUCCEEDED 7: Test 'Addheader - UTF 8' SUCCEEDED 8: Test 'Addheader - devious characters' SUCCEEDED FAIL: 1 of 8 tests failed. I tried this with the latest Pigeonhole from Mercurial: - dovecot-2-2-pigeonhole-3b6917a4807c and also with the older: - dovecot-2-2-pigeonhole-e111a2393a92 Both versions are quitting during "make check" with the same error when compiling against dovecot-2.2.13.rc1. Compiling those versions against dovecot-2.2.12 is going without errors though. Cheers, Tamsy

[Dovecot] message-decoder bug for attachments with charset=binary attribute in content-type?
by Robert Wolf 12 May '14

12 May '14

Hello, I have configure dovecot with solr and I wanted to let solr index content of attachments. For testing I have used biabam command line tool to generate emails with attachments. I have found that dovecot with fts_decoder incorrectly decodes these attachments from biabam and therefore pdftotext has reported corrupted PDF. The problem is that biabam generates header with charset=binary and dovecot message decoder tries to process it as UTF8 or non-UTF8 data. ============================================================ --biabam.ZxWVLybiabam.ZxWVLy Content-Type: application/pdf; charset=binary Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="bacula-jobs.pdf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 JVBERi0xLjQKJcfsj6IKNSAwIG9iago8PC9MZW5ndGggNiAwIFIvRmlsdGVy IC9GbGF0ZURlY29kZT4+CnN0cmVhbQp4nF2PT0+EMBDF7/0U7yYYWdqFXdbe 1vgnMXpQezMeClSoQNltweh+egvLyczhN3kz703mCLpioFMtLDoSv2aoHKGo ..... ============================================================ This PDF begins orginal with ============================================================ 0000000: 2550 4446 2d31 2e34 0a25 c7ec 8fa2 0a35 %PDF-1.4.%.....5 0000010: 2030 206f 626a 0a3c 3c2f 4c65 6e67 7468 0 obj.<</Length 0000020: 2036 2030 2052 2f46 696c 7465 7220 2f46 6 0 R/Filter /F 0000030: 6c61 7465 4465 636f 6465 3e3e 0a73 7472 lateDecode>>.str ============================================================ But the dovecot pass following data to fts_decoder script: ============================================================ 0000000: 2550 4446 2d31 2e34 0a25 c3a4 c3bc c3b6 %PDF-1.4.%...... 0000010: c39f 0a32 2030 206f 626a 0a3c 3c2f 4c65 ...2 0 obj.<</Le 0000020: 6e67 7468 2033 2030 2052 2f46 696c 7465 ngth 3 0 R/Filte 0000030: 722f 466c 6174 6544 6563 6f64 653e 3e0a r/FlateDecode>>. ============================================================ As you can see binary data are mangled. Alpine and Thunderbird do not write charset=binary to content-type header and searching works perfect. I have searched in source code and I have found one place. If I replace the following code in file dovecot-2.1.7/src/lib-mail/message-decoder.c on line 241 with new one, the dovecots message decoder decodes message correctly and pdftotext can convert attached PDF. Original code: ============================================================ 241: ctx->binary_input = ctx->content_charset == NULL && 242: (ctx->flags & MESSAGE_DECODER_FLAG_RETURN_BINARY) != 0 && 243: (part->flags & (MESSAGE_PART_FLAG_TEXT | 244: MESSAGE_PART_FLAG_MESSAGE_RFC822)) == 0; ============================================================ My update: ============================================================ 241 ctx->binary_input = ((ctx->content_charset != NULL) && (strcasecmp(ctx->content_charset, "binary") == 0)) || (ctx->content_charset == NULL && 242 (ctx->flags & MESSAGE_DECODER_FLAG_RETURN_BINARY) != 0 && 243 (part->flags & (MESSAGE_PART_FLAG_TEXT | 244 MESSAGE_PART_FLAG_MESSAGE_RFC822)) == 0); ============================================================ This will set ctx->binary_input for the attachment with charset set to "binary". I don't know if this is correct update, but the searching works with this update for biabam binary attachments too. Could you please verify this problem and maybe update the code? Thank you very much. # dovecot --version 2.1.7 Config: plugin { fts = solr fts_solr = url=http://localhost:8080/solr/ fts_decoder = decode2text } service decode2text { executable = script /etc/dovecot/scripts/decode2text.sh user = dovecot unix_listener decode2text { mode = 0666 } } Regards, Robert Wolf.

[Dovecot] Segfault with passwd as a second userdb at auth_fields_rollback
by Jan Kończak 11 May '14

11 May '14

Hello, I've been trying to set up dovecot to support passwd-file + passwd/PAM auth. I made an unusual config (passwd-file as userdb failed to work for me), which uses static as userdb: =============== passdb { driver = passwd-file args = username_format=%u scheme=CRYPT /etc/dovecot/users } userdb { driver = static default_fields = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/spool/mail/%d/%n } passdb { driver = pam } userdb { driver = passwd } =============== While passwd-file+static worked well, passwd/PAM caused trouble: $ doveadm user xxx doveadm(root): Error: userdb lookup(xxx): Disconnected unexpectedly field value If passwd-file had the user, check went fine; otherwise it segfaulted. The crash has been accompanied by a syslog message: kernel: auth[9788]: segfault at 18 ip 0000000000416391 sp 00007fffd11a3d90 error 4 in auth[400000+44000] Translating address lead me to: 0000000000416390 <auth_fields_rollback>: 416390: 53 push %rbx 416391: 48 83 7f 18 00 cmpq $0x0,0x18(%rdi) I was using packages from http://packages.atrpms.net/dist/el6/dovecot/ To be precise, dovecot-2.2.10-1_14.el6.x86_64.rpm I tampered with the src.rpm, upgraded spec&sources to match 2.2.12. It didn't help, so I tries to "workaround" this. The bug has gone when in src/auth/auth-fields.c:210 I added check if the field ptr is not null. As it's a userdb query, it seems that for some reason (static?) in src/auth/auth-request.c:1058 the function auth_fields_rollback is called with null request->userdb_reply Now it works fine: $ doveadm user xxx field value uid 1000 gid 100 home /home/xxx mail maildir:~/.maildir system_groups_user xxx $ doveadm user jkonczak@ast... field value uid 103 gid 103 home /var/spool/mail/ast.../jkonczak mail maildir:~/.maildir So now virtual users get vmail uid/gid, system users get their uid/gid, home is fine etc. Below I attach the patch + full config.

[Dovecot] ECDSA certificate support
by SIW 11 May '14

11 May '14

Does the latest version of Dovecot support ECDSA certificates? I had a look in: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SSL but it didn't answer my question. Can someone please help or point me in the right direction? I'd also like to know if I can run an RSA cert AND an ECDSA certificate at the same time in Dovecot (like you can in Postfix). Many thanks.

[Dovecot] dovecot 2.2.9 - ssl_cert and ssl_key ignored
by Alexandru Bostina 11 May '14

11 May '14

Hello, It seems that Dovecot ignores the new /ssl_cert and ssl_key /settings. Using them in the dovecot configuration results in the error: Fatal: Couldn't parse private ssl_key: error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line: Expecting: ANY PRIVATE KEY] Using the old /ssl_//cert//_file/ and /ssl_key_file/ results in their being obsolete warning but no fatal error.

[Dovecot] Only part of sieve script works
by Sebastian Schlingmann 10 May '14

10 May '14

Hi, I am using Dovecot 2.2.11 with Pigeonhole on Arch Linux. I have a partly working sieve script (pasted to the end of this mail) which sorts mail into various imap folders. The first, third and fourth if blocks work just fine. The second and fifth block do not sort any mails. However, if I apply the script with sieve-test to mails the second and fifth block seem to work. How is the manual check with sieve-test different from the sieve filtering during mail delivery? I am thankful for any hints. Sebastian this is the sieve script I am talking about require "fileinto"; # Musik wegsortieren if anyof ( header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "Mixing.DJ", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "John B", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "FLOSS Weekly", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "BrainStuff", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "Nerdy Show", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" ["My Brother", " My Brother And Me"], header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "MoJoMenace", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "GWJ Conference Call", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "Welcome to Night Vale", header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Subject" "International Waters" ) { fileinto "Feeds.music"; stop; } # Youtube wegsortieren if address :all :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "From" "noreply(a)youtube.com" { fileinto "Feeds.Youtube"; stop; } # Awesomer wegsortieren if header :comparator "i;octet" :contains "Subject" "[The Awesomer]" { fileinto "Feeds.Awesomer"; stop; } # Feeds sortieren if address :all :comparator "i;octet" :contains "From" "sebi+feedmailer(a)mighty.selfhost.bz" { fileinto "Feeds"; stop; } # AIStA wegsortieren if header :comparator "i;ascii-casemap" :contains "Received" "webmail.awista.net" { fileinto "AIStA"; stop; }

[Dovecot] Denial of Service attacks against Dovecot v1.1+
by Timo Sirainen 10 May '14

10 May '14

There's an upper limit to how many IMAP/POP3 connections can exist that haven't logged in (and separate limits for post-login). Normally when this limit is reached, the oldest connection gets disconnected. There is of course some potential to try to DoS Dovecot by doing a lot of IMAP/POP3 connections, but because the oldest connection always gets destroyed this requires quite a lot of activity from the attacker. This "destroy oldest connection" however hasn't been working in v1.1+ releases for connections that have started SSL/TLS handshake, but haven't finished it. So an attacker could just do a bunch of TCP connections to port 993 and leave them hanging around and Dovecot would pretty quickly reach the upper limit without being able to disconnect any of the oldest connections. Here are patches to fix this: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/rev/41622541a7a3 http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.1/rev/b7ac23b4d339 http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/48f90e7e92dc http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.2/rev/8ba4253adc9b http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/fe0e6550585c The fix will be in v2.2.13. Maybe also in v2.1.18 if I decide to release it. For older releases you need to patch it yourself. For people who are using dovecot-ee releases the fix is also in v2.2.12.12 and v2.1.7.7 releases.

[Dovecot] Strange behavior on with "listescape" and "lda_mailbox_autocreate" - double entries
by Patrick De Zordo 09 May '14

09 May '14

Hello Guys, we are using Dovecot since years; all working flawless but one strange behavior: Let me explain.. - we have enabled the "listescape" plugin in "15-lda.conf", "10-mail.conf" and "20-imap.conf". - we use the following default namespace in "10-mail.conf": --------------- 10-mail.conf ----------------------------------------- namespace { type = private prefix = separator = / inbox = yes subscriptions = yes } ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - we use a sieve script that automatically generates folders in the following form (example): ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ".INBOX.2014.05.patrick.incoming" for user "patrick(a)xx.com" ".INBOX.2014.05.patrick.outgoing" for user "patrick(a)xx.com" ".INBOX.2014.05.p\2edezordo.incoming" for user "p.dezordo(a)xx.com" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is ok, but the automatically generated "subscriptions"-file of the user contains double lines (the second line is something strange?!); the second one should not be created, its totally wrong..! --------------- subscriptions ----------------------------------------- Trash Sent INBOX.2014.05.patrick.incoming INBOX.2014.05.patrick.outgoing INBOX.2014.05.p\2edezordo.incoming INBOX\2e2014\2e05\2ep\5c2edezordo\2eincoming <----- this line!?!?!? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have you any ideas whats going on? Could this be a bug, or misconfiguration? Thanks in advance!! Greeting from Italy! Patrick.

[Dovecot] Disable IMAP for ONE user only
by SIW 09 May '14

09 May '14

I use MySQL to store my virtual users passwords and I am running the latest version of Dovecot. What I need to do is have one particular user have ONLY access to their email via Roundcube (webmail) and no IMAP/SMTP access. Therefore, how do I disable IMAP/SMTP access for just one user?

[Dovecot] imapc with Outlook.com transfers max 22-23 messages per mailbox!?
by Nicholas Riley 08 May '14

08 May '14

Hi, I'm trying to migrate a user from Outlook.com IMAP to Dovecot. I'm using a setup similar to that on http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Migration/Dsync: imapc_host = imap-mail.outlook.com imapc_user = [...](a)hotmail.com imapc_password = [...] imapc_features = rfc822.size fetch-headers mail_prefetch_count = 20 imapc_port = 993 imapc_ssl = imaps imapc_ssl_verify = yes ssl_client_ca_dir = /etc/ssl # this needs fixing on the wiki page Here's how I sync a single mailbox, which should have a few hundred messages in it: % doveadm -D -v -c [...] sync -1 -R -u [...] -m Avalon imapc: Output is at http://sabi.net/temp/sync.txt But every mailbox contains at most 22-23 messages. % for i in Maildir/**/cur; do echo $i $(ls -1 $i | wc -l) done Maildir/Alaska/cur 23 Maildir/Avalon/cur 22 Maildir/Christine Scott/cur 22 Maildir/Cornell/cur 22 Maildir/Coupons/cur 10 Maildir/Deleted/cur 22 [...] I was using 2.2.9 but I also tried with the dovecot-2.2 hg tip and did not see any difference. Is there a rawlog equivalent for imapc? I'm hoping that there is a simple protocol usage change that could let me get entire mailboxes. -- Nicholas Riley <njriley(a)illinois.edu>

[Dovecot] segfault with shared namespace version > 2.1.16
by Tom Lieuallen 08 May '14

We're currently running 2.1.16. I've been wanting to update to a 2.2.X version, but have been running into problems, even with the latest (2.2.12).

[Dovecot] Dsync via dovecot proxy
by mtrainer＠cloud-free.com 08 May '14

08 May '14

Hi All, I need to import mailboxes into my Director NFS setup via one of my director proxy's as doing a direct dsync to the backend mailstores appears to giving me NFS locking issues. It looks like it may be possible to do this using doveadm listeners. I have setup doveadm listeners on a test proxy and backend mailstore.

[Dovecot] dsync replication does not replicate new subfolders
by Nikolaos Milas 08 May '14

08 May '14

Hello, Although this issue has been raised in another thread: https://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg57281.html I decided I should create a new one dedicated on it because that thread includes other issues as well, and the issue in question still remains unresolved although it is an important one (and I am hoping to attract Timo's attention on it, too ;-) ). The problem is that when dsync is configured between two servers (master/master), messages do get replicated, but newly created subfolders do not get replicated; as a result, when messages are moved by users from existing folders to newly created ones, replication results in chaos. Manually running a dsync command does not resolve the issue. See details of debug log on the above thread. I remind you that the configs of the two master/master installations (2.2.12) are available at: Primary Master: https://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg57298.html Secondary Master: https://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg57304.html The questions: 1. Is it an expected dsync behavior that newly created subfolders do not get replicated? 2. If yes, how can we replicate those? 3. If not, what is going wrong in the replication process? Does our configuration need a fix (which?) or does Dovecot needs one? Please advise! Sincerely, Nick

[Dovecot] TCP Cluster replication headache
by FUSTE Emmanuel 07 May '14

07 May '14

Hello, After going crazy building a dovecot cluster, I finally see the light ;-)) But some things are "strange" and could probably be fixed/enhanced. First : I follow the wiki doc, setting global doveadm_port. Things did not work, I've got: dovecot: doveadm(X1234567): Error: sync: /var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb: Configured passdbs don't support crentials lookups (to see if user is proxied, because doveadm_port is set) Same kind of error too when trying to use doveadm on the command line to get the replica status. My user/auth db is LDAP with "auth_bind = yes", but I don't understand the message in these context and did'nt know how to fix this. I tried to hardcode proxy/proxy_maybe property in the passdb declaration etc... Finally, I remove the global "doveadm_port 12345" and add ":12345" at the end of my "mail_replica =" line and all began to work ! Is it a wanted and expected error/fix ? Secondly: Now all is working and "doveadm replicator status '*' " correctly list all my users and the status, but after a few seconds (after replication kick in), I see all user listed twice. One time, as declared in the userdb with letters in uppercase : "X1234567" One time, in lowercase : "x1234567" On disk, all is OK, with only one replica in an uppercase directory. I initially think that it was a mismatch between userdb and passdb users return, but it was in fact the default value of auth_username_format that was the culprit. After going from the default %Lu to %u doveadm replicator status show only one entry per user as expected. Is it wanted and expected too? why auth_username_format is used/interact with/in the replication process and/or the replicator status command ? Not all is functionally tested, I go back to work. My is conf at the end of this message. Thanks Simo for this great piece of software.

[Dovecot] BUG report: doveadm HEADER <field> <pattern> when concatenating with another Search key
by megodin＠inboxalias.com 07 May '14

07 May '14

Hey there, I'm pretty sure I've found a bug with doveadm when concatenating with another search key. While doveadm HEADER <field pattern> works fine when not using additional search keys, it doesn't work properly when concatenating with other serarch keys - it then simply seems to ignore the additional HEADER <field pattern> search key. It's reproduceable, also with different user accounts on 2 different productive systems. Testing it on latest dovecot-ee 2.2.9.2 and 2.2.5.5. I think it's best explained with showing some examples: doveadm search -u exampleuser SUBJECT Silvester (outputs correctly 10 matches) 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 1106 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 1107 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 1579 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 4092 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 5330 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 9773 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 11460 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 12718 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 15653 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 15697 doveadm search -u exampleuser SUBJECT Silvester HEADER Return-Path someuser(a)example.com (gives exactly the same output - but this is WRONG, as the given Subject AND Return-Path is really only found in 1 Message - uid 15697) 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 1106 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 1107 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 1579 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 4092 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 5330 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 9773 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 11460 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 12718 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 15653 5a09f50926daef51b50e000025ab05f8 15697 doveadm search -u exampleuser HEADER Return-Path someuser(a)example.com (showing that Return-Path as standalone search key is working fine - note that message uid 15697 with subject "Silvester" is also found of course.

[Dovecot] New global ACL mailbox pattern feature in HG
by Thomas Leuxner 07 May '14

07 May '14

Hi, I played around with changeset 9376bf098692 a bit. Right now I'm unsure how to describe a namespace using this feature. Using something like 'Public/*" doesn't seem to work while 'Public*" does, but would also potentially alter non-related mailboxes elsewhere: $ cat global-acl INBOX owner lrwstiekxap Public* group=PublicMailboxAdmins lrwsik Regards Thomas

[Dovecot] SSL/TLS handshake stays forever without timeout
by morrison 07 May '14

07 May '14

Hi, I am a system admin and I am evaluating using dovecot as our email server. In my test, I found that if I telneted to 993 port and did not do anything or I telneted to 143 port, sent starttls command and then did not do anything, the connection stayed forever without timeout. This will make our mail server vulnerable to DOS attack. I dig into dovecot Wiki and did not find any solution. This seems to me that dovecot does not handle SSL/TLS handshake timeout. I am wondering if this is a known issue and will be fixed in near future. Thanks,

[Dovecot] imap process and indexer-worker crash while creating folders
by Michael Kliewe 07 May '14

07 May '14

Hi, our dovecot processes sometimes crash when we create new folders. The "imap" process and the "indexer worker" process is crashing. We can reproduce this, we have a java program with multiple threads, and sometimes 2 threads try to create the same folder for the same user, and if both collide, dovecot processes crash. We don't see this happening in the real world if "normal" imap clients are connected, but our special java program trying to create folders in parallel is producing these crashes. Below you can see the log entries and gdb "bt full" output, one for an "imap" process and one for an "indexer worker" process. We are using dovecot 2.2.9, and I did not find anything in the changelog regarding this problem. Does ist make sense to try the newest version 2.2.12?

[Dovecot] sieve - different sieve scripts
by Héctor Moreno Blanco 07 May '14

Hello everybody, We have Dovecot 2.1.6 and PigeonHole 0.3.0. Is possible to have two different sieve scripts working at the same time? My sieve configuration in dovecot.conf: ... managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave imapflags notify ... sieve = %h/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = %h/sieve sieve_extensions = +imapflags +notify } protocols = imap pop3 sieve ... service managesieve-login { executable = /usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/managesieve-login inet_listener sieve { address = * port = 4190 } inet_listener sieve_deprecated { address = * port = 12000 } user = vmail } service managesieve { executable = /usr/local/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/managesieve } ... protocol sieve { managesieve_implementation_string = dovecot Pigeonhole managesieve_logout_format = bytes ( in=%i : out=%o ) managesieve_max_line_length = 65536 } Thank you very much in advanced.

[Dovecot] WG: on High Load using IMAPSYNC : Panic: file ostream-lzma.c: line 147: unreached. Dovecot 2.2.12 with zlib/XZ compression
by Robert Nowotny 07 May '14

07 May '14

when syncing Mailboxes with IMAPSYNC, using xz compression the dbox file gets corrupted. the same configuration was working ok on low load with xz compression. Dovecot Version 2.2.12 Linux Mint 16 EXT4 Filesystem another dovecot user already reported the same problem on the mailinglist, using dsync. That user switched to bz2 compression what worked for him. the answer was : > are you on latest patchlevel ? > there are some dsync fixes since 2.2.12 but it is not a problem of dsync. when looking at the code, we get here an unexpected returnvalue when flushing. I propose it would be good practice to write some logging in the default switch cases, to see the unexpected returnvalues in the errorlog. something like : ostream-lzma.c : -- Line 147 : i_unreached(); ++ Line 147 : i_fatal("unexpected lzma errorcode when flushing : %s", ret); after that modification the errorlog shows : May 6 14:03:05 vm-imap dovecot: imap(test): Fatal: lzma errorcode when flushing : (null) maybe You can also investigate and let me know when fixed. Here the log : May 5 14:53:10 vm-imap dovecot: imap(rrernboeck): Panic: file ostream-lzma.c: line 147: unreached May 5 14:53:10 vm-imap dovecot: imap(rrernboeck): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x67450) [0x7ff99d8ce450] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(+0x6752e) [0x7ff99d8ce52e] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(i_fatal+0) [0x7ff99d88955e] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/lib20_zlib_plugin.so(+0x4f0a) [0x7ff99ce87f0a] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(o_stream_flush+0x3e) [0x7ff99d8e6dbe] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(o_stream_nflush+0xf) [0x7ff99d8e71df] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(o_stream_nfinish+0x9) [0x7ff99d8e7229] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(dbox_save_end+0x29) [0x7ff99db7cfa9] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mdbox_save_finish+0x39) [0x7ff99db76619] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0(mailbox_save_finish+0x4d) [0x7ff99dbb6a4d] -> dovecot/imap [rrernboeck 127.0.0.1 APPEND]() [0x40be09] -> dovecot/imap [rrernboeck 127.0.0.1 APPEND](command_exec+0x3c) [0x416cfc] -> dovecot/imap [rrernboeck 127.0.0.1 APPEND]() [0x40b491] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_call_io+0x27) [0x7ff99d8de527] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_handler_run+0xd7) [0x7ff99d8df2b7] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(io_loop_run+0x38) [0x7ff99d8de0c8] -> /usr/local/lib/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0(master_service_run+0x13) [0x7ff99d88e753] -> dovecot/imap [rrernboeck 127.0.0.1 APPEND](main+0x2af) [0x40b06f] -> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf5) [0x7ff99d4c0de5] -> dovecot/imap [rrernboeck 127.0.0.1 APPEND]() [0x40b1cc] May 5 14:53:10 vm-imap dovecot: imap(rrernboeck): Fatal: master: service(imap): child 47957 killed with signal 6 (core dumped) May 5 14:53:10 vm-imap dovecot: imap(rrernboeck): Error: Corrupted dbox file /home/vmail/virtualmailboxes/rrernboeck/storage/m.1 (around offset=1302): msg header has bad magic value

[Dovecot] Can Auth dict proxy protocol be used to validate a password?
by Thomas Johnson 07 May '14

07 May '14

I'm interested in using authentication via a UNIX socket as documented at http://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/Dict. (We are currently using a checkpassword script to enable us to authenticate against a django app that stores passwords in pbkdf2 format, but I'm concerned about scalability as we grow - specifically the comment about performance on http://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/CheckPassword) The example clearly shows retrieving a password, but is there some way to validate a password that was provided the way a checkpassword script does? Otherwise, for performance reasons, perhaps we should implement a new password scheme directly for dovecot? Thanks- Tom

Hi, in April I wrote an e-mail to the list, that with dovecot 2.2.12 on debian squeeze some pop3-sessions were killed sometimes. But I got no anwser from the list.

Re: [Dovecot] LMTP, TLS/SSL, authentication, proxy

Hello, unfortunatly, TLS doesn't seem to work on LMTP, anyway, not by simply put ssl=yet to the lmtp inet_listener. I've tried and when I *openssl s_client -connect* to the lmtp listener I've got the following response : CONNECTED(00000003) 34379118248:error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol:/usr/src/secure/lib/libssl/../../../crypto/openssl/ssl/s23_clnt.c:766: My postfix server can't neither establish a TLS connection on LMTP listener.

[Dovecot] Status of sieve-extdata?
by Jiri Bourek 06 May '14

06 May '14

Hi, I'd like to ask about status of extdata plugin for sieve. The wiki page (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Plugins/Extdata) mentions versions for PigeonHole 0.2 and 0.3, but there seems to be no version for 0.4 and Dovecot 2.2. Is the plugin dead or is it planned to make version for Dovecot 2.2 (when time allows I guess)? Regards J.

[Dovecot] on High Load using IMAPSYNC : Panic: file ostream-lzma.c: line 147: unreached. Dovecot 2.2.12 with zlib/XZ compression
by Robert Nowotny 06 May '14

06 May '14

when syncing Mailboxes with IMAPSYNC, using xz compression the dbox file gets corrupted. the same configuration was working ok on low load with xz compression. Dovecot Version 2.2.12 Linux Mint 16 EXT4 Filesystem another dovecot user already reported the same problem on the mailinglist, using dsync. That user switched to bz2 compression what worked for him. the answer was : > are you on latest patchlevel ? > there are some dsync fixes since 2.2.12 but it is not a problem of dsync. when looking at the code, we get here an unexpected returnvalue when flushing. I propose it would be good practice to write some logging in the default switch cases, to see the unexpected returnvalues in the errorlog. something like : ostream-lzma.c : -- Line 147 : i_unreached(); ++ Line 147 : i_fatal("unexpected lzma errorcode when flushing : %s", ret); I will try to change it and let You know. maybe You can also investigate and let me know when fixed.

[Dovecot] doveadm auth and the "nologin" extra field
by Axel Luttgens 05 May '14

05 May '14

Hello, Still busy with details... Considering, as in my previous example, a password_query returning '!' or NULL for the "nologin" column, depending on an account's status (suspended or not). Let's consider a suspended user "some.user". In the case of a successful authentication, one has: sh-3.2# doveadm auth test some.user goodpassword; echo $? passdb: some.user auth succeeded extra fields: user=some.user nologin 0 On the other hand, in the case of an authentication failure: sh-3.2# doveadm auth test some.user badpassword; echo $? passdb: some.user auth failed extra fields: user=some.user nologin=! 77 So, this is similar to what happens in a connection (pop3, imap...): when present, the nologin info is always taken into account, even in the case of an authentication failure. Again, this may raise some concerns about the consistency of such a behavior. Is this guaranteed to always behave that way, because of some rationale I'm currently missing, or does it go about some overlooked combination, liable to be inadvertently "corrected" in the future? I haven't been able to find a definitive answer in the wiki or in the code about such matters. This is particularly important in the case of doveadm, since its output requires parsing for extracting such informations (the exit code alone isn't sufficient); should above behavior be changed without notice, and a script could suddenly take the worst decisions... BTW, why: nologin in the first output, and: nologin=! in the second output? TIA, Axel

[Dovecot] %{orig_user} missing in checkpassword-Script
by dovecot.pkoch＠dfgh.net 05 May '14

05 May '14

Dear dovecot maintainers: I'm using SSL client certificates together with a checkpassword scripts to authenticate our users. My problem is: In the checkpassword script the AUTH_USER environment variable will either contain the username that was configured in the mailclient (if auth_ssl_username_from_cert=false) or the username from the certificate (if auth_ssl_username_from_cert=true). I would like to compare both values, i.e. the %{user} Dovecot-variable and the %{orig_user} Dovecot-variable. But the environment of a checkpassword-script has only one of them. I tried myself and found the following: - the environment of a checkpassword script is setup by checkpassword_setup_env() in db-checkpassword.c - checkpassword_setup_env() calls env_put_auth_vars() - env_put_auth_vars() creates AUTH_xxx environment variables for all entries of the auth_request_get_var_expand_table() - the auth_request_get_var_expand_table_full() routine does not contain the original user, but the auth_request-struct does. So I changed the dovecot sourcecode (version 2.2.12) as follows In src/auth/auth-request.h line 152 I replaced #define AUTH_REQUEST_VAR_TAB_COUNT 27 by #define AUTH_REQUEST_VAR_TAB_COUNT 30 In src/auth/auth-request.c around line 2027 I replaced the following lines at the end of auth_request_var_expand_static_tab { '\0', NULL, "session_pid" }, /* be sure to update AUTH_REQUEST_VAR_TAB_COUNT */ { '\0', NULL, NULL } }; by { '\0', NULL, "session_pid" }, { '\0', NULL, "orig_user" }, { '\0', NULL, "orig_username" }, { '\0', NULL, "orig_domain" }, /* be sure to update AUTH_REQUEST_VAR_TAB_COUNT */ { '\0', NULL, NULL } }; In src/auth/auth-request.c around line 2116 I replaced the following lines at the end of function auth_request_get_var_expand_table_full() tab[26].value = auth_request->session_pid == (pid_t)-1 ? NULL : dec2str(auth_request->session_pid); return ret_tab; by tab[26].value = auth_request->session_pid == (pid_t)-1 ? NULL : dec2str(auth_request->session_pid); if (auth_request->original_username != NULL) { tab[27].value = escape_func(auth_request->original_username, auth_request); tab[28].value = escape_func(t_strcut(auth_request->original_username, '@'), auth_request); tab[29].value = strchr(auth_request->original_username, '@'); if (tab[29].value != NULL) { tab[29].value = escape_func(tab[29].value+1, auth_request); } } return ret_tab; This will add AUTH_ORIG_USER, AUTH_ORIG_USERNAME and AUTH_ORIG_DOMAIN environment variables to the environment of every checkpassword script. If this is the correct way to extend the environment of a chackpassword-script then you might consider adding these minor changes to the dovecot-source. Kind regards and thanks very much for this wonderful project Peter Koch

[Dovecot] Dovecot proxy
by Alex Ferrara 05 May '14

05 May '14

Hi everyone, I have a problem that hopefully has an easy solution. I am setting up an IMAP proxy in a DMZ network. It will connect to the real IMAP server and authenticate using "driver = imap", and this I have working really nicely. What I want to do is have it look up a list of users that are allowed to connect through the proxy before proxying the connection, as not all users with an account are permitted to access their email from the internet. I thought that using a post-login script would get me out of trouble, but it isn't possible in a relay configuration. dovecot.conf ## Dovecot configuration file mail_uid = dovecot mail_gid = dovecot protocols = imap listen = *, :: passdb { driver = imap # IMAP server to authenticate against args = host=192.168.1.1 # IMAP server to connect to for mailbox default_fields = proxy=yes host=192.168.1.1 } userdb { driver = prefetch } auth_mechanisms = plain login # This is the auth service used by Postfix to do dovecot auth. service auth { unix_listener auth-userdb { } inet_listener { port = 12345 } } ## ## SSL settings ## # These will need to ba adjusted to point to *your* certificates, not mine 8-) # The ssl_ca line refers to the intermediate certificate bundle which may or may not be required by your SSL provider ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/mail.domain.com.au.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/mail.domain.com.au.key #ssl_ca = </etc/pki/tls/certs/ca.crt ssl_cipher_list = ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2:!EXP:!aNULL

[Dovecot] Dsyncing mail in director setup
by Murray Trainer 05 May '14

05 May '14

Hi All, I have a pair of dovecot director proxies and six dovecot backend mailstores using NFS v4.1 to access five filesystems on EMC VNX NFS storage. This is all working fine until I try and dsync new email mailboxes via one of the mailstores onto the NFS storage. I get major NFS lockups at random on one or more of the mailstores with none of the NFS mounts accessible on one or more of the mailstores. I am getting our storage guy to look into it to see if it is just a performance issue. I can understand there may be locking issues but I wouldn't have thought it would have this effect. I also wonderif there is a better way to run dsync so it handle writing to NFS? Maybe passing it some of the nfs related dovecot options? Thanks Murray

[Dovecot] Dovecot/Postfix Auth, howto not working ?
by Matt . 05 May '14

05 May '14

Hi Guys, I'm trying to auth Dovecot agains FreeIPA using this tut: http://www.freeipa.org/page/Dovecot_IMAPS_Integration_with_FreeIPA_using_Si… (and also Postfix using this: https://www.dalemacartney.com/2013/03/14/deploying-postfix-with-ldap-freeip… it should be working with dovecot at the end I believe) I'm having some issues here and get the following errors no matter what I do: May 4 23:13:18 mail-01 dovecot: auth: Fatal: No passdbs specified in configuration file. LOGIN mechanism needs one May 4 23:13:18 mail-01 postfix/smtpd[2949]: error: open database /etc/aliases.db: No such file or directory May 4 23:13:18 mail-01 postfix/smtpd[2949]: warning: dict_nis_init: NIS domain name not set - NIS lookups disabled May 4 23:13:18 mail-01 dovecot: master: Error: service(auth): command startup failed, throttling May 4 23:13:18 mail-01 postfix/smtpd[2949]: connect from unknown[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] May 4 23:13:28 mail-01 dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts): rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx May 4 23:13:28 mail-01 postfix/smtpd[2949]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms May 4 23:13:29 mail-01 postfix/master[1627]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 2949 exit status 1 May 4 23:13:29 mail-01 postfix/master[1627]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling May 4 23:14:18 mail-01 dovecot: auth: Fatal: No passdbs specified in configuration file.

I hope someone can help me out! Thanks! Matt

[Dovecot] Unknown user when sending internal email
by SIW 04 May '14

04 May '14

I use MySQL to store my virtual users, domains and aliases. My database is setup as follows: |CREATE| |TABLE| |`dovecot_passwords` (| |||`username` ||varchar||(100) ||NOT| |NULL||,| |||`appname` ||varchar||(50) ||NOT| |NULL||,| |||`||password||` varbinary(256) ||NOT| |NULL||,| |||PRIMARY| |KEY| |(`username`,`appname`)| |) I then add a users: | |INSERT| |INTO| |dovecot_passwords (username, appname, ||password||) ||VALUES||( ||'test(a)domain.com'||, ||'desktop'||, MD5(||'password'||) ); My /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext has: | |driver = mysql | |connect = host=127.0.0.1 dbname=mailserver user=mailuser password=blahblah| |default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = SELECT NULL AS password,'Y' as nopassword, username AS user||||FROM dovecot_passwords||||WHERE username = '%u' AND password=MD5(REPLACE('%w',' ','')) Logging in works great and I can use a desktop email client or webmail just fine to check email. The problem occurs when I try to email another user in MY domain. When I send an email from user1(a)domain.com to user2(a)domain.com I get the following error in the logs: to=<user1(a)domain.com>, relay=mail.domain.com[private/dovecot-lmtp], delay=0.08, delays=0.05/0.01/0/0.02, dsn=5.1.1, status=bounced (host mail.domain.com[private/dovecot-lmtp] said: 550 5.1.1 <user1(a)domain.com> User doesn't exist: user1(a)domain.com (in reply to RCPT TO command)) | I thought it may have something to do with this: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/DomainLost To quote: SQL password_query gets often misconfigured to drop the domain if username and domain are stored separately. For example: # BROKEN: password_query = SELECT username AS user, password FROM users WHERE username = '%n' AND domain = '%d' The "username AS user" changes the username permanently and the domain is dropped. You can instead use: # MySQL: password_query = SELECT concat(username, '@', domain) AS user, password FROM users WHERE username = '%n' AND domain = '%d' Despite the above I didn't have any luck. From what I can tell in the logs it is using the username AND domain for the user (and not dropping off the domain). Does anyone know how I can get local mail delivery to work again? I have changed the way my users are stored in MySQL so that I can make use of "Application Specific Passwords". If I revert back to using the previous user database internal mail works fine again. I can't seem to figure this out so appreciate any help! Any questions please ask.

[Dovecot] IMAP clients can't connect while dovecot 2.0.9 is configured for LDAP
by Matthew Badeau 03 May '14

03 May '14

Good evening, Currently, it’s using mySQL for the passdb and userdb. This works fine but when I switch to LDAP it starts having problems. I’m trying to set up dovecot to use LDAP as its userdb and passdb. I’ve read the docs but I think I may be missing something obvious or I didn’t understand something right. The clients can’t connect through IMAP using MD5-Challenge Response. They also don’t work with plain auth.. When I run the command ` doveadm auth user(a)domain.com ` , it works! When I run ` doveadm auth -x service=imap user(a)domain.com ` that also works! What am I doing wrong??? I get the following error: Error: Apr 29 02:04:02 servername dovecot: auth: Fatal: CRAM-MD5 mechanism can't be supported with given passdbs Here is my config: # 2.0.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-431.5.1.el6.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS release 6.5 (Final) ext4 auth_debug = yes auth_verbose = yes mail_location = maildir:/home/mailuser/%u managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date mbox_write_locks = fcntl passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext driver = ldap } plugin { sieve_dir = ~/sieve sieve_global_dir = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/ sieve_global_path = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve } protocols = pop3 imap sieve lmtp sieve service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = mailuser mode = 0640 user = mailuser } } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/servernameredacted.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/certs/servernameredacted.key userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap-userdb.conf.ext driver = ldap } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " sieve" } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " sieve" } Thank you for any help or links to docs!

[Dovecot] BINARY FETCH conversion issue
by Michael M Slusarz 03 May '14

03 May '14

Given this test message, with admittedly incorrect QP encoding: ---- From: Test <test(a)example.com> Subject: Test Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain To: Test <test(a)example.com> Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2014 00:54:10 +0000 Message-Id: <1(a)example.com> https://example.com/?from=bsu&url=http%3A//www.example.com/ ---- Dovecot 2.2 returns this: C: 5 UID FETCH 4464 (BINARY.PEEK[1]) S: * 1 FETCH (UID 4464 BINARY[1] NIL) S: 5 OK Fetch completed. Contrast with, e.g., Cyrus 2.4: C: 6 UID FETCH 1 (BINARY.PEEK[1]) S: * 1 FETCH (UID 1 BINARY[1] {57} S: [LITERAL DATA: 57 bytes] S: ) S: 6 OK Completed (0.000 sec) (Cyrus FETCH output strips out the spurious non-encoding '=', IIRC). Not sure if this is an example of Cyrus' QP decoder being more robust (or lenient) than Dovecot's. Or whether this is intentional to return NIL for this kind of bad data. Although if intentional, output should probably be a NO response with UNKNOWN-CTE response code, since this appears to be an instance of "the server does not know how to decode the section's CTE".

[Dovecot] Segfault in auth (when talked to by postfix lda)
by Darac Marjal 02 May '14

02 May '14

Afternoon all. I'm seeing a segfault in dovecot 2.2.12 (debian package 1:2.2.12-2). I can log into dovecot fine with mutt, but the segfaults seem to occur when postfix (2.11.0, debian package 2.11.0-1+b1) tries to deliver a message. This was working fine under 2.2.9 (I can downgrade to that and delivery works). Can anyone help? Doveconf -n, and backtrace follow. ------------------------------ --8<-- doveconf -n ---------- # 2.2.12: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.12-1-686-pae i686 Debian jessie/sid xfs auth_debug = yes auth_mechanisms = digest-md5 cram-md5 plain info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot.info lda_mailbox_autosubscribe = yes log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " login_log_format_elements = service=%s user=<%u> session=%{session} method=%m rip=%r lip=%l mpid=%e %c %k mail_access_groups = mail users mail_location = mdbox:/var/mail/%u/Mail mail_max_userip_connections = 50 mail_plugins = " zlib stats" mail_privileged_group = mail mail_uid = vmail managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { driver = pam } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } plugin { antispam_backend = dspam antispam_crm_binary = /bin/false antispam_debug_target = syslog antispam_dspam_args = --client;--mode=teft;--deliver;--user;%u antispam_dspam_binary = /usr/bin/dspam antispam_pipe_program = /usr/sbin/sendmail antispam_pipe_tmpdir = /tmp antispam_signature = X-DSPAM-Signature antispam_signature_missing = move antispam_spam_pattern_ignorecase = SPAM antispam_trash_pattern_ignorecase = trash;Deleted * sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve stats_refresh = 30 secs stats_track_cmds = yes } postmaster_address = postmaster(a)darac.org.uk protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = vmail mode = 0666 } } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { address = 192.168.123.254 port = 20024 } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } inet_listener sieve_deprecated { port = 2000 } } service stats { fifo_listener stats-mail { mode = 0600 user = vmail } } ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/mail.www.ssl-bundle.crt ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/private/mail.www.ssl.key userdb { driver = passwd } userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/mail/%u driver = static } protocol lmtp { mail_fsync = optimized mail_plugins = " zlib sieve" } protocol lda { mail_fsync = optimized mail_plugins = " zlib sieve" } protocol imap { mail_plugins = " zlib zlib imap_zlib antispam stats imap_stats" } ----8<---- backtrace ------- Core was generated by `dovecot/auth'.

[Dovecot] output of doveconf in conflict with order of settings in conf.d/*-*.conf files
by Steffen Kaiser 02 May '14

02 May '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I wanted to enable stats, so I added the settings from http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Statistics into conf.d/99-stats.conf: mail_plugins = $mail_plugins stats protocol imap { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_stats } plugin { # how often to session statistics stats_refresh = 30 secs # track per-IMAP command statistics stats_track_cmds = yes } reloaded dovecot, see output of doveconf -n below, but I got the error: imap: Error: Can't load plugin imap_stats_plugin: Plugin stats must be loaded also (you must set: mail_plugins=$mail_plugins stats) If I move the line "mail_plugins = $mail_plugins stats" from 99-stats.conf into 15-stats.conf, the output of doveconf -n looks the same, but the stats is working. I tried finding information about the significance of the order of settings - I mean which number should a conf-file has - , but failed in the Wiki and mailing list.

[Dovecot] maildir compressed message fix patch
by Richard Platel 02 May '14

02 May '14

When a compressed maildir message has a bad S= size in its filename it puts the user in an unrecoverable state, since maildir's do_fix_size function just does a stat() on the maildir file and saves the compressed size in the filename. This (quick, rough, barely tested) patch addresses this issue, it's inefficient, but we're already in a hopefully rare emergency situation. --- maildir-mail.c 2014-02-11 22:23:37.000000000 +0000 +++ maildir-mail.c.new 2014-04-24 20:41:25.000000000 +0000 @@ -8,6 +8,7 @@ #include "maildir-filename.h" #include "maildir-uidlist.h" #include "maildir-sync.h" +#include "compression.h" #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> @@ -640,6 +641,10 @@ { const char *fname, *newpath, *extra, *info, *dir; struct stat st; + const struct stat * stp; + const struct compression_handler * handler; + struct istream * fstream; + struct istream * cstream; fname = strrchr(path, '/'); i_assert(fname != NULL); @@ -650,13 +655,29 @@ info = strchr(fname, MAILDIR_INFO_SEP); if (info == NULL) info = ""; + fstream = i_stream_create_file(path, 1024); + handler = compression_detect_handler(fstream); + if (handler != NULL && handler->create_istream != NULL) + { + cstream = handler->create_istream(fstream, TRUE); + if (i_stream_stat(cstream, TRUE, &stp) < 0) + { + return -1; + } + st = *stp; /* dumb copy */ + i_stream_unref(&cstream); + } + else + { if (stat(path, &st) < 0) { if (errno == ENOENT) return 0; mail_storage_set_critical(&mbox->storage->storage, "stat(%s) failed: %m", path); return -1; - } + } + } + i_stream_unref(&fstream); newpath = t_strdup_printf("%s/%s,S=%"PRIuUOFF_T"%s", dir, t_strdup_until(fname, extra),

[Dovecot] ID command and dovecot
by Jernej Porenta 02 May '14

02 May '14

Heya, we are seeing some strange issues with IMAP ID command using latest Roundcube builds on dovecot 2.2.10 responding "Input buffer full, aborting". Roundcube webmail connects to IMAP server and issues ID command first with some long arguments to ID command, however shorter than 1024 octets, which are specified in RFC2971 for ID IMAP extension. The situation is easily reproducible (see http://pastebin.com/q4HX4wqb) # telnet hostname 143 * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Server ready. . ID ("name" "Roundcube" "version" "1.0-git" "php" "5.3.3" "os" "Linux" "command" "<$long_less_than_1024_octets_string>") * BYE Input buffer full, aborting However, this problem does not occur when user is already logged in. RFC2971 is saying "Field strings MUST NOT be longer than 30 octets. Value strings MUST NOT be longer than 1024 octets. Implementations MUST NOT send more than 30 field-value pairs." IMHO, dovecot is handling ID command before successful login successfully only if the length of the whole command is less than 1024 octets (exactly 861 octets is working fine, over that "Input buffer full" occurs). I tried finding the reference in the source code, however I am unable to find where this limit actually occurs (maybe IMAP_ARG_STRING imap_arg->type?) thank you in advance, regards, Jernej

[Dovecot] Finding memory leaks
by Philipp Brüll 02 May '14

02 May '14

Hello, I try to find a memory leak in a dovecot plugin that I develop. In order to find it, it would be helpful to print the total amount of memory that is currently allocated. This print could than spread over the source code and the memory consumption can be tracked. I've tried i_debug("pool size %u", (unsigned int)pool_alloconly_get_total_alloc_size(system_pool)); But that failed. Does someone has a good advice? I would like to avoid complex solutions like valgrind. Best regards, Philipp

[Dovecot] Imap user via proxy with starttls - how to rawlogs on proxy ?
by askforstatus 02 May '14

02 May '14

Hello, Is there any way to log user imap dialog with starttls when going via dovecot acting as imap proxy ? My intention is to log each and every user command similar to rawlogs feature. As per my current imap proxy config pre-login working like a charm but post-login is not possible due as i think the nature of proxy feature. Any idea ? Regards -- View this message in context: http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/Imap-user-via-proxy-with-starttls-how-… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Not backing up cache files
by Jesus Cea 02 May '14

02 May '14

I am using mdbox for dovecot storage. I wonder if I could skip "dovecot.index.cache" files and, in general, "*.cache" files when doing mail backup. Those files are big and change frequently. What I feel from reading documentation [1][2] is that they could be dropped in the backups, to be recreated on the fly if needed. But I would like expert confirmation.

[Dovecot] BUG dovecot and nginx
by Tobias Oetiker 02 May '14

02 May '14

we have setup a two level proxy configuration for our zimbra server: [ dovecot 2.2.12 (imap proxy mode) ] V [ nginx (imap proxy mode) ] V [ zimbra imap server] and it does not work ... after tying a login, the connection just hangs and ends after 30 seconds with a timeout. - if I try again rightaway in the same dovecot connection, the login goes though without trouble. - looking at this with tshark I can see that on the second attempt, there is no capabilities query, dovecot just goes ahead and connects. if we drop nginx from the setup all is well also (login works directly as expected) - investigating the traffic differences between the setups with and without nginx, we find that for some reason dovecot does not react to the capabily answer from nginx. while it seems to happily accept the same answer when it is coming from zimbra directly. - the only difference I can see on the wire is that nginx is much quicker (2.5ms) in responding than the zimbra (25ms) server and that the position of the STARTTLS and SASL=PLAIN capabilities in the capability answer differs between the two. any ideas ? cheers tobi -- Tobi Oetiker, OETIKER+PARTNER AG, Aarweg 15 CH-4600 Olten, Switzerland www.oetiker.ch tobi(a)oetiker.ch +41 62 775 9902 *** We are hiring IT staff: www.oetiker.ch/jobs ***

[Dovecot] Rebuilding message guid in sdbox
by Renaud Allard 02 May '14

02 May '14

Hello, I am running dovecot 2.2.12 Current mail storage is sdbox and I am trying to compress all emails, which works fine, except for a few old mailboxes. If I run the following dsync command "dsync -u flea -o "mail_plugins=zlib" mirror maildir:~/ndbox" It fails with: dsync(flea): Error: Exporting mailbox INBOX failed: Backend doesn't support GUIDs, sync with header hashes instead Doing "doveadm dump flea/dbox/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index" reveals that there are very old mails (about 5 years ago) without any guid like that one: RECORD: seq=1, uid=1560, flags=0x00 - ext 1 modseq : 16043 (ab3e000000000000) - ext 3 cache : 396 (8c010000) - cache offset=396 size=20, prev_offset = 0 - guid: So, my question is: is there a way to force dovecot to assign a guid to those messages? Best Regards

[Dovecot] Dovecot Director and MasterUsers
by Daniel Parthey 02 May '14

02 May '14

Hi, the Dovecot Director determines the backend host in some way by hashing the username: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Director For normal logins username(a)example.org, the director always gets the same hash for the same username and ensures that the login is always proxied to the same backend. But what about MasterUsers in combination with Dovecot Director? http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers Which configuration directives should be used to make sure that logins username@example.org*masteruser1@example.org username@example.org*masteruser2@example.org username@example.org*masteruser3@example.org go to the same mailbox backend, in order to avoid NFS caching conflicts for mailbox username(a)example.org which should always reside on the same NFS client? Is the master user cut off from behind the master_user_separator? How is the director hash exactly calculated? Can the director hashing algorithm be configured in some way? Regards Daniel
