postfix connects to dovecot lmtp socket, but nothing is delivered

I am setting up a new server combination (postfix + dovecot). dovecot's auth service works for postfix. Just lmtp does not and I need to find out why. I don't see anything in the dovecot logging, but I see this on the postfix side (debug) Jan 05 16:11:59 snape postfix/lmtp[127]: connection established Jan 05 16:11:59 snape postfix/lmtp[127]: master_notify: status 0 Jan 05 16:11:59 snape postfix/lmtp[127]: deliver_request_initial: send initial response Jan 05 16:11:59 snape postfix/lmtp[127]: send attr protocol = delivery_request_protocol Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: smtp_get: timeout Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: connect to subsystem private/defer Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: private/defer socket: wanted attribute: protocol Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: input attribute name: protocol Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: input attribute value: delivery_status_protocol Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: private/defer socket: wanted attribute: (list terminator) Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: input attribute name: (end) Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr nrequest = 0 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr flags = 0 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr queue_id = C71B3D1262 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr original_recipient = sysbh(a)rna.nl Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr recipient = sysbh(a)rna.nl Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr offset = 18446744073709551615 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr dsn_orig_rcpt = rfc822;sysbh(a)rna.nl Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr notify_flags = 0 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr status = 4.4.2 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr diag_type = Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr diag_text = Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr mta_type = Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr mta_mname = Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr action = delayed Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr reason = conversation with snape.rna.nl[private/lmtp] timed out while receiving the initial server greeting Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: private/defer socket: wanted attribute: status Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: input attribute name: status Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: input attribute value: 0 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: private/defer socket: wanted attribute: (list terminator) Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: input attribute name: (end) Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: C71B3D1262: to=<sysbh(a)rna.nl>, relay=snape.rna.nl[private/lmtp], delay=300, delays=0.02/0/300/0, dsn=4.4.2, status=deferred (conversation with snape.rna.nl[private/lmtp] timed out while receiving the initial server greeting) Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: flush_add: site rna.nl id C71B3D1262 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: match_list_match: rna.nl: no match Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: flush_add: site rna.nl id C71B3D1262 status 4 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: deliver_request_final: send: "conversation with snape.rna.nl[private/lmtp] timed out while receiving the initial server greeting" -1 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr status = 4.4.2 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr diag_type = Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr diag_text = Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr mta_type = Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[127]: master_notify: status 1 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr mta_mname = Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[127]: connection closed Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr action = Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr reason = conversation with snape.rna.nl[private/lmtp] timed out while receiving the initial server greeting Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: send attr status = 4294967295 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: master_notify: status 1 Jan 05 16:16:59 snape postfix/lmtp[126]: connection closed It seems dovecot doesn't react to whatever postfix is doing on the socket. Another possibility is that the socket doesn't really work and dovecot never gets a connection request. How can I debug this? Might I test if the socket is the problem by running lmtp on the dovecot side on TCP on 127.0.0.1 and have postfix use that? Just to see if it works? If so, how do I tell postfix to do that? In dovecot I have added the tcp: service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { address = 127.0.0.1 port = 24 } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/lmtp { mode = 0660 user = postfix group = postfix } } service lmtp { executable = lmtp -L } protocol lmtp { info_log_path = /var/log/mail/dovecot-lmtp.log } Any other tips?

Migrating, syncing, maybe load-balancing/failover two dovecot servers?
by Gerben Wierda 05 Jan '23

05 Jan '23

I am in the process of migrating from dovecot on one OS (macOS/darwin) to a new server running dovecot with another OS (Ubuntu Linux 22.4). I have mostly copied/adapted the setup of the old server to the new. I am in the process of finishing that and adding some stuff that still needs to be added/migrated, like rspamd. And the data of course before the new one takes over from the old. I have done a migration before (MacOS X Server dovecot to MacPorts dovecot on macOS), many years ago, I recall that I used dovecot syncing but also rsync and I don't really recall (and anyway, the software has changed since) I have been thinking about keeping them both alive, with one as a failover for the other. They will not share their storage (e.g. NFS), So, I was wondering if I can do something with syncing between instances and dovecot director. I have been looking at the documentation, but a quick scan reveals I cannot locate some sort of tutorial and I am uncertain what will work and what not. If keeping both alive in parallel is too problematic, it is OK to have regular syncing in one direction (old to new) at first and then switch over and have syncing in the other direction (new to old) Can someone enlighten me?

imap and lmtp create different index/control folders
by George Asenov 05 Jan '23

Hello, We have migrated our mail server from procmail lda to dovecot lmtp/sieve . dovecot imap create the dir with the email account test(a)s32.teststring.ml for name but lmtp create it as test-s32.someteststring.ml(a)serverhostname.tld I can't figure out how to manipulate nor what username postfix send to dovecot/lmtp or how dovecot/lmtp interpret it. As you will see in the config below there is a separate userdb set for lmtp because it receive the username/envelope from postfix as test-s32.someteststring.ml(a)serverhostname.tld which prevent it to use the pam authentication to verify and use the mail user to deliver email. So I use driver = passwd-file which have the option to configure the format of the username. But this is kind of dirty hack which i do not like. Anyone now how to configure dovecot/lmtp by default to remove the @myserverhostname.tld from the username or configure postfix not to add it?

submissiond xoauth2 authentication: line too long
by Tobias Florek 04 Jan '23

04 Jan '23

Hi, I am running the latest container image which has dovecot-submissiond 2:2.3.20-3+debian11 I am running into the following problem. I have successfully set up xoauth2 for IMAP and ManageSieve. Now when roundcube tries to send email to submissiond it fails with 500 5.5.2 Line too long This happens right after roundcube sends AUTH XOAUTH2 dXNlcj10ZkBzY2hhZWZmZXItYWcu[...] (a line of length 2149 characters). Reading RFC 4954, section 4 I suppose that this does not look standard compliant. Am I correct? I will raise this issue with roundcube as well. Cheers, Tobi

CRAM MD5 passwd db permission issue
by Gerben Wierda 04 Jan '23

04 Jan '23

I am busy migrating. I am moving from macOS+MacPorts to Ubuntu+Docker On the old system, I have this in the dovecot config: mail_uid = _dovecot mail_gid = mail mail_privileged_group = mail mail_access_groups = mail This seems weird to me, I think the dovecot user should be in group dovecot only if I understand the docs. On the old system dovecot, postfix, dovenull and rspamd are all members of the mail group. On that system, the cram md5 passwd database (file) has these permissions: drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 96 Feb 2 2021 . drwxr-xr-x 22 root admin 704 Jan 4 15:17 .. -rw-r----- 1 root mail 1234 Feb 2 2021 cram-md5.pwd and that has worked like that for many years, basically starting with Mac OS X Server, surviving all kinds of macOS migrations. On my new Ubuntu system I've copied this setup over: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 4 09:49 . drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 Jan 4 15:21 .. -rw-r----- 1 root mail 1234 Feb 2 2021 cram-md5.pwd mail_uid = dovecot mail_gid = mail mail_privileged_group = mail mail_access_groups = mail But: Jan 04 15:40:08 auth: Error: passwd-file /etc/dovecot/etc/cram-md5.pwd:open(/etc/dovecot/etc/cram-md5.pwd) failed: Permission denied (euid=91(dovecot) egid=91(dovecot) missing +r perm: /etc/dovecot/etc/cram-md5.pwd, we're not in group 8(mail), dir owned by 0:0 mode=0755) And really, dovecot is in group mail. From /etc/group: mail:x:8:postfix,dovecot dovenull:x:90: dovecot:x:91: And from /etc/passwd: dovenull:x:90:90::/home/dovenull:/usr/sbin/nologin dovecot:x:91:91::/home/dovecot:/usr/sbin/nologin So, that I get this error baffles me.

doveadm proxy list has strange entries
by Tobias Florek 02 Jan '23

02 Jan '23

Hi! I am using dovecot from the latest docker image: Version 2:2.3.20-3+debian11 When getting the proxy list I get the following entries. # doveadm -f flow proxy list username=user(a)example.com proto=imap src ip=10.254.0.13 dest ip=172.23.6.194 port=143 username=username proto=service src ip=src-ip dest ip=dest-ip port=dest-port username=user2(a)example.com proto=imap src ip=10.254.0.13 dest ip=172.23.6.194 port=143 username=username proto=service src ip=src-ip dest ip=dest-ip port=dest-port username=user3(a)example.com proto=imap src ip=10.254.0.13 dest ip=172.23.6.194 port=143 username=username proto=service src ip=src-ip dest ip=dest-ip port=dest-port ... These correspond to the http API's response: # curl -H "Authorization: X-Dovecot-API $(echo -n MY_API_KEY|base64 -w0)" http://localhost:8080/doveadm/v1 -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '[["proxyList",{},"tag1"]]' | jq [ [ "doveadmResponse", [ { "username": "user(a)example.com", "service": "imap", "src-ip": "10.254.0.13", "dest-ip": "172.23.6.194", "dest-port": "143" }, { "username": "username", "service": "service", "src-ip": "src-ip", "dest-ip": "dest-ip", "dest-port": "dest-port" }, ... ], "tag1" ] ] This does not look right.

Error: Failed to get quota resource STORAGE: quota-fs: quotactl(Q_GETQUOTA, NFS:/home) failed: No such file or directory
by Jorge Concha C. 01 Jan '23

01 Jan '23

Hello everyone, I'm migrating my dovecot (imap) server from CentOS-6 to RockyLinux-9, but I can't get the QUOTA-FS plugin to work. When trying the "doveadm quota get -u user" command, it returns an error "doveadm(user): Error: Failed to get quota resource STORAGE: quota-fs: quotactl(Q_GETQUOTA, nfs:/home) failed: No such file or directory" If the user has his "$home" on a local drive, everything works fine, but if the user has his $home on a nfs-filesystem, it throws that error. On CentOS-6, everything works fine, with the same users on the same nfs-filesystem. I don't know if it is the product of the OS change or the dovecot version change. CentOS6 -> Dovecot 2.2.10 RockyLinux-9 -> Dovecot 2.3.16 Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks -- Jorge Concha C. Área de Sistemas - CEC U. de Chile

Iteration failure on passwd-file when listing all users?
by EML 31 Dec '22

31 Dec '22

Dovecot 2.3.16, Ubuntu 22.04. I'm trying to get a list of all dovecot users, on a simple test setup on my local network (which "works", in that I can get IMAP mails from dovecot): passdb { driver = passwd-file args = /var/mail/vhosts/%d/shadow } userdb { driver = passwd-file args = /var/mail/vhosts/%d/passwd } The command 'doveadm user -u foo(a)example.com' correctly shows that user. However, any attempt to wildcard the user fails: # doveadm user -u *(a)example.com Error: auth-master: userdb list: User listing returned failure Fatal: user listing failed The log file shows Error: conn unix:auth-worker (pid=13471,uid=129): auth-worker<1>: passwd-file(*(a)example.com): passwd-file: User iteration isn't currently supported with %variable paths Any ideas? And, if I can get this to work, is this method any better than just reading /var/mail/vhosts/example.com/passwd and extracting the first field to get the user name? Or just finding all the maildir directories in /var/mail/vhosts/example.com? Thanks. If you're interested, I'm doing this so that I can automate postfix setup (by mapping new addresses to known dovecot users in the postfix virtual mailbox file). The vmailbox file might look like: # 'user1' is a known dovecot user foo(a)example.com example.com/user1

Sieve duplicates
by Ferenc 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

Hi list, I’m trying this again from a different account because of lots of SPF warnings. I have Sieve scripts that duplicate e-mails. I don’t want that. My dovecot version is 2.3.4.1 (f79e8e7e4), Pigeonhole version 0.5.4 on Linux 5.4.189-2-pve x86_64 Debian 10.13. My scripts get called on an imap COPY action (imapsieve extension). The mail is fed to an external script (spam/ham training or retraining) via a pipe :copy action (vnd.dovecot.pipe extension). An header is added to keep track of what happened (editheader extension). I use "if header :contains” for my (simple) logic. If contains header X, do this, add header Y. If contains header Y, do that, add header X. I end each "if” part with “keep;" and “stop;” commands. Simple versions of the scripts, without the if-then construct, seem to work ok with imapsieve. As soon as I try to use if-then-else I find a duplicate of the processed e-mail; the original mail seems to be untouched, the duplicate appears to have been processed. With macos mail not all duplicates show up but with Roundcube webmail I can see them all. The scripts are like this: # without if-then require … pipe :copy … addheader … keep; # with if-then require … if header :contains pipe :copy … addheader … keep; stop; if not exists pipe :copy … addheader … keep; stop; keep; The scripts get called from “imapsieve_mailbox1_before” for example. Cheers, Ferenc

Dovecot v2.3.20 released
by Aki Tuomi 28 Dec '22

28 Dec '22

We are pleased to release v2.3.20 of Dovecot. https://dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3.20.tar.gz https://dovecot.org/releases/2.3/dovecot-2.3.20.tar.gz.sig Binary packages in https://repo.dovecot.org/ Docker images in https://hub.docker.com/r/dovecot/dovecot Regards, Aki Tuomi Open-Xchange oy -- + Add dsync_features=no-header-hashes. When this setting is enabled and one dsync side doesn't support mail GUIDs (i.e. imapc), there is no fallback to using header hashes. Instead, dsync assumes that all mails with identical IMAP UIDs contains the same mail contents. This can significantly improve dsync performance with some IMAP servers that don't support caching Date/Message-ID headers. + lua: HTTP client has more settings now, see https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/lua/#dovecot.http.client + replicator: "doveadm replicator status" command now outputs when the next sync is expected for the user. - LAYOUT=index: duplicate GUIDs were not cleaned out. Also the list recovery was not optimal. - auth: Assert crash would occur when iterating multiple userdb backends. - director: Logging into director using master user with auth_master_user_separator character redirected user to a wrong backend, unless master_user_separator setting was also set to the same value. Merged these into auth_master_user_separator. - dsync: Couldn't always fix folder GUID conflicts automatically with Maildir format. This resulted in replication repeatedly failing with "Remote lost mailbox GUID". - dsync: Failed to migrate INBOX when using namespace prefix=INBOX/, resulting in "Remote lost mailbox GUID" errors. - dsync: INBOX was created too early with namespace prefix=INBOX/, resulting a GUID conflict. This may have been resolved automatically, but not always. - dsync: v2.3.18 regression: Wrong imapc password with dsync caused Panic: file lib-event.c: line 506 (event_pop_global): assertion failed: (event == current_global_event) - imapc: Requesting STATUS for a mailbox with imapc and INDEXPVT configured did not return correct (private) unseen counts. - lib-dict: Process would crash when committing data to redis without dict proxy. - lib-mail: Corrupted cached BODYSTRUCTURE caused panic during FETCH. Fixes: Panic: file message-part-data.c: line 579 (message_part_is_attachment): assertion failed: (data != NULL). v2.3.13 regression. - lib-storage: mail_attribute_dict with dict-sql failed when it tried to lookup empty dict keys. - lib: ioloop-kqueue was missing include breaking some BSD builds. - lua-http: Dovecot Lua HTTP client could not resolve DNS names in mail processes, because it expected "dns-client" socket to exist in the current directory. - oauth2: Using %{oauth2:name} variables could cause useless introspections. - pop3: Sending POP3 command with ':' character caused an assert-crash. v2.3.18 regression. - replicator: Replication queue had various issues, potentially causing replication requests to become stuck. - stats: Invalid Prometheus label names were created with specific

OT: Two simultaneous POP3 connections from Outlook
by kjohnson＠eclypse.org 21 Dec '22

21 Dec '22

Hello, I recognize this may be somewhat off-topic, but my search-fu has failed to provide useful results, so I ask for pointers to further information. Today, while examining Dovecot logs, I found a case where the Outlook mail client (probably 2016 or later) on a user's computer opened two simultaneous, or at least overlapping, POP3 connections to Dovecot. This did not go well, naturally. Warning: Transaction log file .../mail/.imap/INBOX/dovecot.index.log was locked for 156 seconds (rotating while syncing) If anyone else has found useful information about this peculiar behavior for an email client, I would be pleased to receive a pointer in that direction. Thank you. Ken

feature request: add base64 variable modifier
by alex 19 Dec '22

19 Dec '22

Hi, It would be very convenient to have a base64 variable modifier. Main use-case is to base64-encode passwords when changing your hashing scheme. With a base64 encoding modifier (e.g. %B) something like this would safely work: userdb { driver = prefetch default_fields = plain_pass=%Bw } without things breaking when there are %-characters in the password, and without having to send the plaintext password to the database, as current solutions propose, which is never a good idea. alternative solution: adapt the generic hash-modifier to accept a none/plaintext hashing-scheme and use the base64 output functionality that is already available there. Thanks! Alex

I could nothing in the documentation that discusses it. Do I copy one, say dovecot-sql.conf.ext, modify it: - rename the copy without the ".ext?" - or move the copy to the "conf.d" directory, with or without the "ext?" -- James Moe moe dot james at sohnen-moe dot com 520.743.3936 Think.

2.3.14: stale imap-login processes due to bogus user setup tying up process limit
by Volker Stolz 16 Dec '22

16 Dec '22

I just dealt with an interesting Dovecot issue on our small server, and thought I might share it. I also feel that although in the end it was a configuration error, Dovecot should somehow avoid leaving this processes around and hence filling up the process limit quickly. - set up Dovecot IMAP on Debian buster (either with the older 2.3.x Debian package, or 2.3.14 from the dovecot-repo) - config: ... namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = ... default settings ... ... passdb { args = scheme=HMAC-MD5 username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } protocols = " imap" ... userdb { args = blocking=no driver = passwd } ... - secret sauce: have a user in the passdb that doesn't have a physical account on the system yet (we were migrating to a new machine). The log-file shows successful authentication for that user (after we flipped DNS to point to this new machine), but over time (2-3 times/day) we were left with an increasing number of `imap-login` processes in state `pre-login`, eventually requiring a dovecot restart. Dialling up process_limits didn't seem to help, we'd just get more of these stale processes. After creating the user on the system, the behaviour reverted to normal, no more stale processes. I do not know what error message that user received on their end, but since we announced we were migrating, they probably just ignored it and thought it as part of the transition. Best, Volker (a happy & long Dovecot user)

Kerberos/GSSAPI auth weirdness?
by r3pek 14 Dec '22

14 Dec '22

Hi list! I'm migrating my server into a new REALM (INT.R3PEK.ORG) from an old one (R3PEK.ORG) This is a completely new install and configuration, so no leftovers exits. The machine is correctly register into the REALM and users are able to login without a problem. Now, when I try to login using a Kerberos ticket, for some reason that I can't understand, dovecot is looking for a ticket on the old REALM. Maybe because of the email domain (which stayed the same)? This is the error message I see on the clients: "Failed to authenticate: Server krbtgt/R3PEK.ORG(a)INT.R3PEK.ORG" The one it should be looking for is krbtgt/INT.R3PEK.ORG(a)INT.R3PEK.ORG, but I can't seem to figure out where the problem is. # doveconf | grep -i realm auth_default_realm = INT.R3PEK.ORG auth_realms = INT.R3PEK.ORG What do I need to change to make this work?

Backups
by Doug Hardie 11 Dec '22

11 Dec '22

I started to investigate using doveadm backup to backup my mail system. I have a small number of users and the mail store is not large. It uses maildir format. I setup a test system that is not connected to the internet and started up dovecot. I used the following command to backup one user: doveadm backup -u ben remote:test ben is the user is in the mail store. Test is the actual server name. That worked just fine. The maildir was copied completely (as best as I can tell with ls). Then I tried the second user: doveadm backup -u jean remote:test This gives 2 error messages: doveadm(jean)[]<McRYOFI0jGN1MwAAmC+70w>: Error: Mailbox INBOX: Failed to get attribute vendor/vendor.dovecot/pvt/server/sieve/files/.dovecot: Mailbox attributes not enabled doveadm(jean)[]<0IwxIlI0jGMgUwAAZU03Dg>: Error: Remote command returned error 65: ssh test doveadm dsync-server -ujean -U In addition, the maildir directories are created, but there are no emails in any of them (e.g., cur). What is the problem with the 2nd and why does it behave differently from the first? -- Doug

Sieve duplicates
by Ferenc 09 Dec '22

09 Dec '22

Hi list, I have Sieve scripts that unintentionally duplicate e-mails. My dovecot version is 2.3.4.1 (f79e8e7e4), Pigeonhole version 0.5.4 on Linux 5.4.189-2-pve x86_64 Debian 10.13. My scripts get called on an imap COPY action (imapsieve extension). The mail is fed to an external script (spam/ham training) via a pipe :copy action (vnd.dovecot.pipe extension). An header is added to keep track of what happened (editheader extension). I use "if header :contains” for my (simple) logic. If contains header X, do this, add header Y. If contains header Y, do that, add header X. I end each "if” part with keep; and stop; commands. Simple versions of this script, without the if-then construct, seem to work ok. As soon as I try to use if-then-else I find a duplicate of the processed e-mail; one that seems to be untouched, one that appears to have been processed. I hope I’m making myself clear… # without if-then require … pipe :copy … addheader … keep; # with if-then require … if header :contains pipe :copy … addheader … keep; stop; if not exists pipe :copy … addheader … keep; stop; keep; The scripts get called from for instance imapsieve_mailbox1_before. Cheers, Ferenc

access dict in lua auth script
by Tobias Florek 08 Dec '22

08 Dec '22

Hi! I want to access a configured dictionary in a lua authentication script. Unfortunately the documentation <https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/lua/> does mention a dict object but no way to get one. I also did not find any lua tests in dovecot's source code. Is using the built-in dict not supported? Cheers, Tobias Florek

moving messages between namespaces go into purge
by Marc 07 Dec '22

07 Dec '22

I think it would be nice to have an option where the moving of messages between namespaces (by automated server scripts) would not result in messages ending up in the 'purge' queue. Currently when you move these copied messages, they end up in the purge queue combined with messages that users deleted. I am more or less forced to purge the mailbox after moving GB's while I prefer not to do this, because I would like to keep the opportunity to recover from the purge queue. Maybe there is a way to 'deduplicate' this purge queue?

Sieve: fileinto a subfolder of inbox
by Federico Fanton 05 Dec '22

Hi everyone! I'm trying to write a sieve script that moves emails to a *subfolder* of the inbox. My script: require ["envelope", "fileinto", "mailbox"]; if anyof( address "to" "support(a)domain.cc", address "cc" "support(a)domain.cc", envelope "to" "support(a)domain.cc" ) { fileinto :create "INBOX.support"; } But this creates a new "support" folder BESIDE the inbox, not INSIDE it.

Backups and disaster recovery
by GDS 04 Dec '22

04 Dec '22

Hello all! After reading some of the past threads on backups, I was wondering if I could get a sanity check... I run a Maildir configuration for a small (10 mailboxes) mail server. Using "doveadm backup", for each mailbox I do: - Weekly full backups and then copy the files to a network-based filesystem.- Daily incremental backups and then copy the files to a network-based filesystem. My recovery assumption is that in case of hardware failure, I would re-set up the mail service and for each mailbox I will recover at the right directory the latest full mailbox backup and on top of it, each incremental backup to the latest day. Does this sound like a sound strategy? Also, I was thinking of setting up a second dovecot server on another server and replicating my primary on an hourly basis to decrease recovery time. But I looked at mbsync and it seems to require mailbox login/password for each mailbox (which I don't have). Is there an alternative? Thank you!

HIGHESTMODSEQ not increasing

Hi, I have a problem with my Dovecot IMAP Server on Debian Linux. I migrated it from FreeBSD to Debian, but since then the HIGHESTMODSEQ value for INBOX is not increasing, when I receive new e-mail. This causes my Groupware not to report any new e-mail via ActiveSync. Here is the protocol transscript: [I] <~>-> openssl s_client -crlf -connect mail.forberger-online.de:993 CONNECTED(00000003) [...] --- read R BLOCK * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE LITERAL+ AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Dovecot (Debian) ready.

I have mails for a user (user(a)domain.net) under /var/spool/mail/virtual/ domain.net/user and I want to move ALL the mails to /var/spool/mail/virtual/domain.com/user If I use #doveadm -Dv move -u user(a)domain.net Maildir:/var/spool/mail/virtual/ domain.net/user Maildir:/var/spool/mail/virtual/domain.com/user ALL I get doveadm(root): Fatal: Unknown argument MAILDIR:/var/spool/mail/virtual/ domain.com/user if I use #doveadm -Dv move -u user(a)domain.net Maildir:/var/spool/mail/virtual/ domain.net/user /var/spool/mail/virtual/domain.com/user ALL doveadm(root): Fatal: Unknown argument /var/spool/mail/virtual/ domain.com/user What the hell am I doing wrong!? :) Thanks.

Subject line says it all? I am using Roundcube, and every time i click on "filters" i get RC's "unable to connect to server" message. This might be an SQL error, but i can't figure out how to pull the relevant logs yet.

bug: ARGON2 hash selection incompatible with LDAP
by Krisztián Szegi 25 Nov '22

25 Nov '22

Good day to all, this is my first post to the mailing list! I'd like to report that non-binding auth to (Open)LDAP doesn't work if the latter hashes passwords with ARGON2. Although dovecot (I am using http://2.3.19.1) does support ARGON2 with libsodium, but it doesn't recoginize hashes beginning "{ARGON2}$argon2id$" stored (and hashed, using ppolicy module's hashCleartext) by OpenLDAP. Now, I understand that ARGON2I, -D, and -ID are not compatible, but the ACTUAL algorithm is there between the two $. Furthermore, I think dovecot is in the minority here, I haven't met any software that specifies the ARGON2 subtype between {}. BTW, I haven't met any software that hashes passwords with ARGON2, but not with the ARGON2ID subtype (where libsodium is available, which also seems to be the standard here), as THAT is the recommended one anyway. I patched the rpm in OpenSUSE repo to alias {ARGON2} to {ARGON2ID}: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:Samonitari:branches:openS… Could we get something like this (but maybe more correct) into the official source? Maybe a config switch to alias it runtime? Thanks for the attention: Krisztián

compiled sieve files svbin ?
by jeremy ardley 23 Nov '22

23 Nov '22

Hi, I have recently started using claws mail to manage my user sieve scripts using server dovecot-sieve_1%3a2.3.13+dfsg1-2_arm64.deb I originally edited ~/.dovecot.sieve to hold my script and I recall that ~/.dovecot.svbin was automatically generated on first use. (either that or I have forgotten that I had used sievec) Later I used claws mail to generate sieve scripts but they were written into directory ~/sieve/ In experimentation I changed ~/.dovecot.sieve into a link to my principal script ~/sieve/main.sieve The oddity now is that sieve seems to be working when there is no compiled version Should I expect a compiled .svbin version to be generated from claws client? Or generated by first run of the sieve server on the user account? Or should I manage the scripts with claws, but log in to the server later to generate the .svbin versions? In any event what effect does not having a .svbin version have on typical small installation? -- Jeremy

Dovecot 2.2 to 2.3 migration
by Markus Wienhöfer 17 Nov '22

17 Nov '22

Hi, we are currently using Dovecot 2.2 (from the Ubuntu 18.04 repos) and would like to migrate to 2.3 I have read the migration documentation regarding the configuration changes. Apart from that, is it feasible/possible to change from Ubuntu to official Dovecot repositories and upgrade the dovecot package this way? Or is there anything else we should be aware of? Best regards Markus

Doveadm backup stateful synchronization trouble
by dovecot＠f-hamelin.fr 16 Nov '22

16 Nov '22

Hi, The non-blocking error is: doveadm(user1s@domain): Error: Saved sync state is invalid, falling back to full sync: Invalid base64 data This error occurs every time on my test machine (no traffic, only a few test messages). That error sometime also occurs on my production system, but not each time. The command I used for the first time is : doveadm backup -A -s "" -d > state.txt After that there is a daily calls (as vmail user, my config only handle virtual users) to : doveadm backup -A -s "$(<state.txt)" -d > state.txt.tmp && mv state.txt.tmp state.txt doveconf -n output is available at https://www.f-hamelin.fr/pub/doveadm-backup-doveconf.txt Any help will be welcomed Best regards, Franck

OAUTH2 local validation
by Felix Auringer 16 Nov '22

16 Nov '22

Hello, <https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/authentication/oauth2/#local-v…> describes how to set up local validation for OAUTH2 with dovecot. This works fine as long as the keys are not rotated. In my experience, it is common for a client to try to validate a token with the cached key and update the cached keys when the local validation fails (e.g. via the /auth/realms/<realm>/protocol/openid-connect/certs endpoint in Keycloak). This way, the client does not need to fetch new keys periodically but only when the old ones expired. If I understand it correctly, Dovecot reads the keys from a defined path but does not care how to update them. Did you have a nice way in mind how the keys should be refreshed when deciding not to do that in dovecot? Are you planning to add automatic refreshing of local validation keys to dovecot? I am running dovecot in Docker and one way would be a cron job on the host that fetches new keys and updates the files inside the container via docker exec. It would work but it's not really a nice solution because from outside dovecot, the information whether the old keys are no longer valid, is not available and the whole process needs to run periodically (and thus way more often than actually necessary).

Re: bug: ARGON2 hash selection incompatible with LDAP

I cannot specify bind_dn template due to mismatched mail addresses and user DNs, and I thought that that would be suboptimal due to re-binding. I am a bit confused about how to optimize LDAP lookups now (static files not option :), re-reading the docs it just made me question more things - auth_bind_dn cannot be given in my case, as a fixed starting point - auth_bind adds a temporary binding (using pass_filter) - can I use userdb prefetch? Docs say I cannot if I use bind with template, but I am not using the latter. So the search for the user's dn during auth IS the passdb lookup? - assuming I am correct, I should give back stuff with passdb lookup: or do I? - Must I give back userid an guid? 10-mail.conf has "vmail" for both, as mail accounts don't have UNIX ones linked to them... - same for home? There is no default I've given until userdb lookup. Just specify a global mail_home with variables, and get on with life? -if I should give back one, should I pass it with default_fields = userdb_home (currently I specify it under default_fields:home in userdb lookup as LDAP doesn't override home). The docs are confusing around userdb. The main thing what is not clear that they CAN override fields on a per-user basis, but must they provide them for non-extra fields, when there are global settings for those? Thanks! BTW, thanks for the great software all of you. Michael, I've come across some of your work, you have my respect!

Accessing Shared Mailbox not working

Hi, I'm new on this mailing list and I'm struggling with the configuration of shared mailboxes. I've followed the following documentation page : https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/shared_mailboxes/shared_mailbo… and manage to had it working for something like 2 minutes, but then changed a parameter and can't get it back working (and of course I don't remember which one it was).

R: Dovecot 2.3 shared namespace issues
by Stefano Cecconello 15 Nov '22

15 Nov '22

Hello, My bad, the OS was ubuntu 20.04 and not 22.04 . After further tinkering\testing, it seems that removing the " acl_ignore_namespace = shared/* " setting did the trick, now we're getting the correct ACL on client side . Without it we can see the folder with the right permissions : Logging as user01 : shared\Sharer01\INBOX : '[NONEXISTENT] Mailbox doesn't exist: shared/test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it/INBOX'' shared\Sharer01\subfolder01 ( RW ) : 'shared/test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it/subfolder01 test.imapuser01(a)td01.testdomain.it akxeilprwtscd '] shared\Sharer01\subfolder02ro ( RO ) : '[NOPERM] You lack administrator privileges on this mailbox' Logging on Thunderbird and other IMAP clients ( sylpheed\claws ) as user01 : - It list correctly the shared folders as subscribed folders ; - can't view the mail contents of the sharer INBOX, as desired ; - show the total elements of the sharer INBOX, even if the user01 didnt have access ; If the config is correct, this is somehow what we're trying to accomplish, i have some concerns regarding how it is possible to show the total messages of the remote INBOX without having any privileges . Maybe is something related to the index of that INBOX folder that is somewhat read by the accessing user even if IMAP-wise didnt have any ACL \ rights . I still dont understand why enabling the acl_ignore_namespace setting, results in a : - remote INBOX full control, even if it was not defined in any acl ; - subfolders ACL applied correctly Hope that someone can shed a light on it . Thanks Stefano

Re: bug: ARGON2 hash selection incompatible with LDAP
by Krisztián Szegi 15 Nov '22

15 Nov '22

Sorry, I wanted to post from this alias, but From-Address isn't saved with my drafts :) I failed to recognize during my patchwork that the verification function is the same for ARGON2I and -ID: both call `verify_argon2`, which in turn calls `libsodium's crypto_pwhash_str_verify`. In the new light this, there is no "harm" in my patch: - If backend gives back "{ARGON2}...", dovecot verifies with the same call anyway, regardless of what subtype it actually is, i.e.: {ARGON2I} will work too. - If dovecot generates the hash, the prefix will be the one set by the config's default hash, so for backwards comp., "{ARGON2ID}" could be used if someone wants that. Dovecot will succeed in verifying {ARGON2} generated by itself as well.

Dovecot 2.3 shared namespace issues
by Stefano Cecconello 15 Nov '22

15 Nov '22

Hello, We're trying to configure the shared mailbox feature\namespace on a dovecot 2.3 installation . OS : Ubuntu 22.04 x64 Dovecot : 2:2.3.19.1-2+ubuntu20.04 Our test enviroment is based on a dovecot frontend ( director + proxy ) and a dovecot backend ( auth and storage ), later we will think about increasing the number of backends and frontends ( if we got it right, as we plan to use multiple backends, we should use imapc in order to bind the sharer and the accessing user to the same backend ) . On dovecot backend we've configured the new shared namespace, as stated in the documentation ( https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/shared_mailboxes/shared_mailbox es/#user-shared-mailboxes ) : -- Dovecot conf -------------------- # Maildir's location is under home dir, which is returned by userdb. mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:VOLATILEDIR=/tmp_lock/%2.256Nu/%u # Quota, mail_log plugins enabled everywhere mail_plugins = quota notify acl fts fts_lucene mail_log mailbox_alias virtual # Default namespace namespace { hidden = no inbox = yes location = prefix = separator = / type = private mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent auto = create } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash auto = create } mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts auto = create } mailbox SPAM { special_use = \Junk auto = create } } # namespace used by virtual search namespace { prefix = VrtSearch. separator = / location = virtual:/etc/dovecot-common-backend/virtual:INDEX=~/virtual hidden = yes subscriptions = no inbox = no list = no } # IMAP SHARING FEATURE service dict { unix_listener dict { mode = 0600 user = vpopmail group = vchkpw } } plugin { acl = vfile acl_ignore_namespace = shared/* acl_shared_dict = proxy::acl-mysql } dict { acl-mysql = mysql:/etc/dovecot-common-backend/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext } # namespace used for IMAP sharing feature namespace { type = shared separator = / prefix = shared/%%u/ location = maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u list = children subscriptions = no } -- Dovecot dict sql -------------------- # IMAP SHARING FEATURE connect = host=x.x.x.x dbname=xxxxxx user=xxxxxx password=xxxxxx map { pattern = shared/shared-boxes/user/$to/$from table = imap_user_shares value_field = dummy fields { from_user = $from to_user = $to } } map { pattern = shared/shared-boxes/anyone/$from table = imap_anyone_shares value_field = dummy fields { from_user = $from } } -- Dict DB contents -------------------- mysql> select * from imap_user_shares; +------------------------------------------+-------------------------------- --------+-------+ | from_user | to_user | dummy | +------------------------------------------+-------------------------------- --------+-------+ | test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it | test.imapuser01(a)td01.testdomain.it | 1 | +------------------------------------------+-------------------------------- --------+-------+ For our tests, we've : - created two users test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it test.imapuser01(a)td01.testdomain.it - Created two INBOX subfolders on the sharer01 user, giving user01 those permissions : subfolder01 giving to user01 Full control subfolder02ro giving to user01 list and read - logging as user01 with thunderbird, we see the shared namespace tree : shared test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it subfolder01 subfolder02 we're able to see the contents of each folder, even the INBOX . Checking the folder properties, thunderbird reports that the user01 has full control on the INBOX of shared01 . If we try to check the ACL via python script ( imaplib.gestacl ) or via doveadm, we can see that the sharer01 INBOX has no rights for user01 . But via thunderbird ( or other email clients ) we can delete emails . ACL - sharer01 accessing its folder ('OK', [b'INBOX test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it lrwstipekxacd']) ('OK', [b'subfolder01 test.imapuser01(a)td01.testdomain.it akxeilprwtscd test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it lrwstipekxacd']) ('OK', [b'subfolder02ro test.imapuser01(a)td01.testdomain.it lr test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it lrwstipekxacd']) ACL - user01 accessing sharer01 folders ('OK', [b'shared/test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it/INBOX']) ('OK', [b'shared/test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it/subfolder01 test.imapuser01(a)td01.testdomain.it akxeilprwtscd']) ('OK', [b'shared/test.imapsharer01(a)td01.testdomain.it/subfolder02ro test.imapuser01(a)td01.testdomain.it lr']) Testing with doveadm shows the correct ACL : #

Questions around mailcrypt and LDAP
by Andre Rodier 15 Nov '22

15 Nov '22

Hello, all. I read carefully the messages about mailcrypt on the mailing list, especially this response from Aki: > It's best suited for securing external storage such as NFS or object storage. > There are possibilities to encrypt the key using user's password, but this > takes careful planning. The keys can also come from userdb , e.g. LDAP. I am able to extend the LDAP schema of my OpenLDAP server to store a key into LDAP attribute for each user. In this case, would it be enough for Dovecot to encrypt the messages when they arrive ? Maybe I misunderstand the documentation. Even when using user keys protected by a password, the Dovecot LMTP process should be able to encrypt the emails with user’s public key, without a password, no ? Ideally, I would like to store user's emails encrypted, so each users cannot access other user's emails. I don't need folder sharing. Thanks for your advice. Kind regards, André Rodier

Dovecot not offering TLSv1.2 after a few minutes
by Markus Wienhöfer 14 Nov '22

14 Nov '22

I have a very strange problem with one of our Dovecot servers (2.2.33.2) on Ubuntu 18.04. The current configuration allows for TLSv1 to TLSv1.3 connections. I can verify those using testssl.sh, the tests will succeed (although correctly mentioning, that TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 should be disabled). Running the tests again after about 5 minutes, the results are different. TLSv1.2 now shows "not offered and downgraded to a weaker protocol". Has anybody experienced a similar problem before? Best regards Markus

Dovecot 2.3.19.1: BUG: Mailbox renaming algorithm got into a potentially infinite loop, aborting
by Ralf Becker 14 Nov '22

14 Nov '22

I found this from 2019 on the list: https://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg78898.html Timo mentioned it's tracked internally as DOP-1501, but I could find nothing about it being fixed on the (public) list. Any news about that and is the workaround of deleting dovecot.mailbox.log* and dovecot.list.index* still the recommendation, when running into this bug.

Submission: track authenticated_user
by itanguy＠univ-brest.fr 10 Nov '22

10 Nov '22

Hello, We would like to use Dovecot Submission to have less queues to maintain. The relayhost (Postfix) after Dovecot routes mail by sender_map, so authenticated user, not the "mail from" because . For what we've seen, we can't use receive header to retrieve this authenticated_user. Example of header : Received: from mailhost ([0.0.0.0]) by submission.host with ESMTPSA id submission-id (envelope-from<myadress(a)example.com>) for<myadress(a)example.com>; Thu, 9 Nov 2022 08:27:41 +0000 So we've thought to use X-client, but reading the doc seems that's not the a good way : /https://doc.dovecot.org/settings/core// - submission_relay_trusted If enabled, the relay server is trusted. Determines whether we try to send (Postfix-specific) XCLIENT data to the relay server (only if enabled). But, XCLIENT for Submission seems to not transfer LOGIN : /https://doc.dovecot.org/settings/core/ / XCLIENT command can be used to override: Session ID Client IP and port (|%{rip}|,|%{rport}|) HELO - Overrides what the client sent earlier in the EHLO command LOGIN - Currently unused PROTO - Currently unused |forward_*| fields can be sent to auth process’s passdb lookup The trust is always checked against the connecting IP address. Except if HAProxy is used, then the original client IP address is used. Do you know another way to inform the relayhost of submission of the authenticated_user? Thanks Ismaël TANGUY

Help with configuration?
by Ellie McNeill 10 Nov '22

10 Nov '22

Hi, I'm running my own mail server on Debian 11 with exim and Dovecot 2.3.13. I have it working, but I'm seeking advice on further customising my setup. I'm using the Maildir++ format with some personal folders. I use IMAP to retrieve mail and Dovecot's submission server to send mail. 1. I want to have incoming emails automatically placed in certain folders instead of 'Inbox' based on certain criteria. For example, I want all emails from PayPal to go into the 'PayPal' folder and all emails from the Debian mailing list to go into the 'Debian' folder. Can dovecot do this for me and what is the best approach? 2. When I delete an email using my user client, it is only 'marked' as deleted (Thunderbird places a scored line through it, and a 'T' is added to the filename in the Maildir). How can I get dovecot to automatically move mail marked 'deleted' to the Trash folder each time? I also want further delete operations on any mail in the 'Trash' folder to be permanently deleted. 3. I want to hide my client IP address from the headers when submitting mail to Dovecot's submissiond, but I can't seem to find any way to disable this. I would prefer that recipients only see the server IP address, but not the IP address of the mail client which submitted it. Regards, Ellie PS - When signing up for the mailing list, there was no selection ability on the question "Would you like to get replies to your mails only to the list, ie. add a Reply-To header?"

Someone has probably already replied to this, but it's a typo: the OP wanted to say "store". The certificate you created was used to sign itself ("self signed") and thus, asserts its own validity. If you need *other* people to trust your SSL service, you should sign your certificate using a third party authority (e.g. LetsEncrypt) to sign it. Most internet users will have these third party signing authority's certificates in their certificate store to validate your service certificate. If this is for your own personal use (i.e. you don't care about trust since you know it's your own certificate), you have to add your self-signed certificate into *your* system's certificate authority store so that your mail reader does not complain about an untrusted certificate. Clear? Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

doveadm backup|sync works for every folder but INBOX
by Ralf Becker 09 Nov '22

I'm trying to migrate an old Cyrus 2.5 server to Dovecot 2.3.19 using doveadm backup -R, which works for all folders but the INBOX itself, which always stays empty. The Cyrus side uses altnamespace:no and unixhierarchysep:no, it's used as imapc: remote in doveadm backup -R with imapc_list_prefix=INBOX Dovecot uses the following namespace to migrate into: namespace inboxes { inbox = yes location = mailbox Sent { auto = subscribe special_use = \Sent } ### some more folders omitted ### prefix = INBOX/ separator = / subscriptions = no } I use the following command line for the migration: doveadm -o imapc_features='rfc822.size fetch-headers' -o mail_prefetch_count=20 -o namespace/subs/location=mbox:/var/dovecot/subs -o imapc_user='someuser' -o imapc_password='secret' -o imapc_host=<cyrus-ip> -o imapc_list_prefix=INBOX -D backup -f -n INBOX/ -R -u someuser@somedomain imapc: The debug output contains the following lines: Nov 02 10:16:01 dsync(someuser@somedomain): Debug: brain S: Namespace INBOX/ has location imapc: Nov 02 10:16:01 dsync(someuser@somedomain): Debug: brain M: Local mailbox tree: INBOX guid=d8d5a3122bce5f63ef9101001ebfc848 uid_validity=1667223083 uid_next=1 subs=no last_change=0 last_subs=0 Nov 02 10:16:01 dsync(someuser@somedomain): Debug: brain S: Local mailbox tree: INBOX guid=c92f64f79f0d1ed01e6d5b314f04886c uid_validity=1577952633 uid_next=32691 subs=no last_change=0 last_subs=0 Nov 02 10:16:28 dsync(someuser@somedomain): Warning: Mailbox changes caused a desync.

In a tcpdump of the IMAP trafic I can see a STATUS "INBOX" (UIDNEXT UIDVALIDITY) but no EXAMINE "INBOX" or something else I would expect from the sync. I can provide the full output of doveadm backup/sync and a pcap of the IMAP trafic, but not to the public list. Any idea what's wrong with the sync of the INBOX or other suggestions / imapc parameters to use?

"Mailbox isn't a valid MBOX file" Error
by Elise 06 Nov '22

06 Nov '22

Running currently two local mailclients: Outlook 2021 and Thunderbird 102.4.2 When using TB and remove a message on my main account, I get this error: [CANNOT] Mailbox isn't a valid mailbox On any other TB configured email accounts I can remove messages without any problems. First I thought that Outlook might block removal on messages, but the issue appears as well if I close that mail client. Can you tell what is causing this problem? Best regards, Jos Chrispijn

Any update on lazy load SNI?
by Pierre Allétru 03 Nov '22

03 Nov '22

Hi folks, We need to use SNI with Dovecot at a relatively large scale and I was wondering if there's any update on the ability to: 1 - Lazy load SNI certificates when they are needed instead of loading them all at once during startup/reload, thus taking a lot of memory and being very slow. 2 - Not having to reload Dovecot every time a new domain cert is added in conf. 3 - Or at least have Dovecot keep processing clients while the slow reload happens. This has been asked already in a 2016 thread: https://www.dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2016-November/106075.html. Regarding point 3 there's a reply from Aki saying it was in the internal tasklist ( https://www.dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2016-November/106089.html) Anybody knows if some progress has been made on these subjects? I can't anything in the docs or any recent information anywhere else. Thanks, -- Pierre Allétru 06 70 55 08 35 pierre.alletru(a)gmail.com

The end of Dovecot Director?
by Steff Majeur 02 Nov '22

02 Nov '22

I recently stumbled upon the following commit on the Dovecot core Github repository: https://github.com/dovecot/core/commit/4a187116dc2311804be22724007d35732300… Apparently, Dovecot Director is going to be removed in the next major version of Dovecot and the commercial Dovecot cluster architecture will be its successor: https://github.com/dovecot/documentation/blob/a85b742ec4fc2744db30a6943b3c2… This would be a huge blow for many organizations around the world that are currently using Dovecot with Director in a shared storage environment. Can anyone of the Dovecot developers maybe enlighten us about the future of Dovecot? - Will there still be the Director feature in the next community release of Dovecot? - If not, will there be a community feature that is on par with the current Director feature? - For how long will Dovecot version 2.3 still be supported (security fixes, bug fixes)? Is there any EOL plan? Thanks for any clarification! Steff

Dovecot does not start on MacOS Monterey
by Doro Rose 30 Oct '22

30 Oct '22

Hi, this is a duplicate of the "Dovecot does not start on MacOS Monterey 12.01" thread. I’m still seeing this on dovecot 2.3.19.1. Is there a recommended workaround? The last post in that thread indicated that some modifications in `./src/lib/restrict-process-size.c` might be necessary. Best regards Doro

Mailing list IMAP archive.

I am trying to use the IMAP mailing list archive described on https://www.dovecot.org/mailing-lists/ Is this feature still functioning? Using Thunderbird i get an error message that the connection was refused. I don't know if Thunderbird isn't functioning properly (with handling no password) or if the service is down. My end goal is i want to search the archive for solutions before asking the list. Is there a browser based option to search the archives? I didn't see a search option on https://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/

Should be much easier to build a project doing this than forking director. This is my train of thought as well. I believe the following would suffice for most setups. A database with: - Current vhost count per backend server. Alternatively, count the temporary user mappings. - Backend servers. - Temporary user mappings between user - backend server. This database is accessible by all Dovecot proxies in case there’s multiple. Steps when receiving a login: - Check if a temporary user mapping exists. - If so, proxy to the backend server in the temporary mapping. (To do: clean up mappings.) - If not, pick the backend server with the lowest vhost count, create a temporary mapping, then increase the vhost count of the chosen backend server. A monitoring service up/downs backend servers. E.g. by checking the port that we proxy to for each backend server. When a backend server is set to down, kick the user to force a reconnection. (Is that how Director ‘moves’ users?)

Catch all for Metadata storage in SQL database
by Steffen Kaiser 27 Oct '22

27 Oct '22

Hi, the https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/imap_metadata/ sample uses mail_attribute_dict = file:%h/Maildir/dovecot-attributes which stores all keys=value pairs in the file. http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/Dovecot-v2-3-9-3-HTTP-API-Endpoint-for… uses a SQL dict, however very specific ones. How can I use a SQL dict to store _all_ keys, as with a file based storage? I cannot find a documentation for "pattern" specification, that works as "catch all", in order to store anything not catched by patterns into the database. https://wiki.dovecot.org/Dictionary does not give any hint (in my eyes). -- Steffen Kaiser

Dynamically set LDAP user namespace using two attributes

Hi, I’m looking for a way to use two LDAP attributes to create a user-specific namespace to be expunged e.g. mailExpungeTrash=namespace/inbox/mailbox/%{ldap:mailTrashMailbox}/autoexpunge I can create the namespace fine returning the full string to be expunged: mailExpungeTrash=namespace/inbox/mailbox/Deleted\_Messages/autoexpunge However I want to alter the namespace using a second LDAP attribute like: mailExpungeTrash=namespace/inbox/mailbox/%{ldap:mailTrashMailbox}/autoexpunge Regards Thomas

The session commands-repliesd is is more or less what I expect, although to make sense of this, you'll have to splice the input and output files together using timestamps to see the sequential flow of data. I forget what the symptoms you originally reported, but theoretically, you could simulate either client or server by feeding in the above data and see how the other end behaves. If dovecot is serving out the correct data, then TB is somehow misinterpreting it. > on an uneducated guess, the mailbox is just 'too large' ? > POP has difficulty handling so many files ? Typically, if some resource limit is hit, one side or the other will create a log or notification. Your INBOX is large, but not outrageous. You can test it directly by creating smaller subsets of the INBOX messages and see if the problem goes away. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

Office 365 SSL issue
by Ervin Hegedüs 23 Oct '22

23 Oct '22

Hi there, I have a bit old Dovecot instance (Ubuntu 14.04 - there is no chance to upgrade it), with these versions of packages: * Dovecot: 2.2.9 * OpenSSL: 1.0.1f Few days ago a client noticed me, that he can't reach his mails through his Office 365. He uses POP3S. I tried to set up a same client for this Dovecot server, but when I configured the POP3 protocoll, after the settings check Office says: Your server does not support the connection encryption type you have specified. Try changing the encryption method. Contact your mail server ... While the client was trying, I see these lines in the log: Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x10, ret=1: before/accept initialization [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x2001, ret=1: before/accept initialization [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x2001, ret=1: SSLv3 read client hello A [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x2001, ret=1: SSLv3 write server hello A [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x2001, ret=1: SSLv3 write certificate A [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x2001, ret=1: SSLv3 write key exchange A [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x2001, ret=1: SSLv3 write server done A [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x2001, ret=1: SSLv3 flush data [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x2002, ret=-1: SSLv3 read client certificate A [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Debug: SSL: where=0x2002, ret=-1: SSLv3 read client certificate A [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Warning: SSL failed: where=0x2002: SSLv3 read client certificate A [192.168.8.133] Oct 21 16:12:18 mail dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=192.168.8.133, lip=192.168.8.21, TLS handshaking: Disconnected, session=<9sWMB4zr+ADAqAiF> Which is weird, because I disabled SSLv3.

Change password schema and post-login script
by Christos Chatzaras 23 Oct '22

Hello, Question #1: For version 2.3.19.1 these commands use BLF-CRYPT, right? doveadm pw doveadm pw -s CRYPT Question #2: I want to change password schema for current users. For users using POP3 or IMAP I can do it using a post-login script. I have some accounts used only to send e-mails using Postfix, so no POP3/IMAP logins for these accounts.

dovecot mailing list (this mailing list), DKIM, SPF and DMARC
by Lev Serebryakov 22 Oct '22

22 Oct '22

My domain (serebrtyajov.spb.ru) has all these "new" e-mail technologies configured. It works fine till I write to this mailing list. After that I've got several DMARC reports about "spam" from my domain. All these reports are about my mailing list post. I don't have such problems with other mailing lists (FreeBSD ones, OpenJDK ones, and others). Looks like mailing list software for this mailing list is misconfigured. I'm sure, I'll get new after this message. -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov

lmtp userdb can't resolve users
by George Asenov 21 Oct '22

21 Oct '22

Hello, I use postfix with dovecot as an lmtp LDA with unix users and multiple domain names and mailboxes in Maildir format placed in domain directory like: /home/mainuser/homes/user(a)domain.tld/Maildir or /home/mainuser/domains/domain2.tld/homes/user(a)domain2.tld/Maildir which have the main user as a group and user@domain.tld/user@domain2.tld as owner Postfix have virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual there in virtual file there is map like: user(a)domain.tld user-domain(a)domain.tld and in /etc/passwd there are actually 2 users with the same home dir and same UID/GID (only the username is different) and in postfix mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp The issue is that when postfix passes the email for local delivery to dovecot lmtp it sends the username as user-domain.tld(a)serverhostname.tld but dovecot is configured with !include auth-system.conf.ext can't resolve this username thus fails to deliver. I've found a workaround in the net to use custom userdb just for lmtp like this: protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve userdb { driver = passwd-file args = username_format=%n /etc/passwd } } which works but produce some warnings because there is the root user (ID 0) and actually is a dirty workaround Is there more elegant solution??

In what section of the config is this limited? I assume it is related to this >go1.13 memory model that allocates quite a lot of vsz?

mdbox vs. maildir format
by Michael 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

hey, i am considering changing my mailbox format from maildir to mdbox. the reason for this is mainly, b/c i have (a) multiple large mailboxes with tens of thousands of mail files, and (b) most of these mails files have a size significantly smaller than the sector size of the disk. so, since the emails themselves are only about nGB large, the disk space used is at least twice as much, if not even three times. i know, hard disk space is 'cheap', but still... but then i read at https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/mailbox_formats/dbox/ the following: [...] you must not lose the dbox index files, as they can’t be regenerated without data loss. so, raid is mandatory, which is already the case, but what about backup? how can i achieve a backup/snapshot of both, the mdbox (nfs share) and the index files (local raid) and assure they are consistent? greetings...

Unseen field reported by imap status command returns wrong count for shared mailboxes on dovecot cluster
by Nikolaos Pyrgiotis 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

Hello, We recently migrated our mail server to a dovecot cluster of 5nodes, a dovecot proxy, 2directors and 2dovecot backends. All dovecot nodes run version 2.19.1. We use a glusterfs mounted volume on the backends forthe mail storage. We noticed that when issuing the IMAP command to check forUNSEEN messages formails on the shared namespace instead of seeing the value of the unseen messages of the user that the mailbox has been shared to, the value of the unseen messages of the owner of the mailbox is returned. This behavior causes thunderbird when getting new messages forshared mailboxes, to show briefly all messages of the mailbox as unseen forthe user before showing the correct unseen count forthe shared mailbox. The mail location of the shared mailboxes is defined with imapc storage type as described inthe documentation. Is this a dovecot bug? Can we configure a different dovecot configuration setting so that imap status command reports the correct unseen field count when mail location is an imapc storage location? An examples is given below when running doveadm command from one the 2 dovecot directors: When issuing the status command we see that the unseen count is 2: root@doved0-rmt0-cn1:/etc/cron.d# doveadm mailbox status -u npyrgiotis all shared.sysadmins doveadm(npyrgiotis): Info: remote(10.101.0.71:8080): doveadm(npyrgiotis(a)domie02.com)<19078><9l8IJTb+GWOGSgAAEU9A+w>: imapc(10.101.0.75:143): Connected to 10.101.0.75:143 (local 10.101.0.71:33476) shared.sysadmins messages=2 recent=0 uidnext=3 uidvalidity=1662640492 unseen=2 highestmodseq=3 vsize=3950 guid=c92f64f79f0d1ed01e6d5b314f04886c firstsaved=1662643853 shared.sysadmins messages=2recent=0uidnext=3uidvalidity=1662640492unseen=2highestmodseq=3vsize=3950guid=c92f64f79f0d1ed01e6d5b314f04886c firstsaved=1662643853 But when fetching the emails of the mailboxes we can see that the \Seen flag is set for both emails root@doved0-rmt0-cn1:/etc/cron.d# doveadm fetch -u npyrgiotis flags mailbox shared.sysadmins ALL doveadm(npyrgiotis): Info: remote(10.101.0.71:8080): doveadm(npyrgiotis(a)domie02.com)<19074><e7rWDgj+GWOCSgAAEU9A+w>: imapc(10.101.0.75:143): Connected to 10.101.0.75:143 (local 10.101.0.71:38750) flags: \Seen flags: \Seen Below i post the dovecot configuration of one of the two dovecot backends: #

by Serveria Support 18 Oct '22

18 Oct '22

I'm trying to setup Dovecot with mail-crypt plugin with per-user encryption. I have configured mail-crypt plugin as per official guide here: https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/mail_crypt_plugin/ After that I created a user and an encrypted key by running this command: doveadm -o \plugin/mail_crypt_private_password=12345 mailbox cryptokey generate -u mail(a)example.org -URf (replacing dummy data ofc) I can log in to webmail (and Dovecot) just fine, emails are getting sent and delivered. I have also checked the storage and the messages seem to be stored encrypted. However, I can't read the emails in webmail (just headers can be seen) and in Dovecot logs I can see the following error: failed: Private key not available: Cannot decrypt key ### Cannot decrypt key ### <8632: Password not available (FETCH RFC822.HEADER) There seems to be an issue with mySQL query. The query I'm using (Select username as "user", password,"%w" as userdb_mail_crypt_private_password from mailbox;) seems to work just fine, when run from mysql prompt it outputs the usernames and passwords, but the error is still there (Cannot decrypt key ### Password not available). Any ideas? What am I missing?

sieve script not modifying header
by Marc 17 Oct '22

17 Oct '22

From the command line the sieve script is modifying the header like this: su testuser -s '/bin/bash' -c 'cat test.msg | /usr/lib64/dovecot/sieve-execute/sieve-test' However when executing via dovecot, the header stays unchanged require ["copy","fileinto","vacation","vnd.dovecot.execute","editheader"]; # rule:[testing2] if not execute :pipe "sieve-test" { } Any idea what I am forgetting to configure/allow?

adding caldav/carddav next to dovecot
by Marc 16 Oct '22

16 Oct '22

I hope it is ok to post this off-topic question here. I was wondering if there are here environments running that offer next to dovecot also calendar and contacts services. In the past I was testing a bit with the one from Apple, but I think it is being discontinued because of converting the python 2 code. I am looking for some experience with a setup provisioning >10k users. Not that I have such requirement, but I want to know if the solution is stable, efficient and optionally can scale. I need something efficient, because I do not have to many resources and high iops available. I also do not want any other other 'crap' just the cal (and card) dav solution. https://github.com/1and1/cosmo This looks interesting (used 1und1 in Germany?) but not big community https://sabre.io/dav/install/ This is in php ...

Re: ot: how to t/s TBird problems ?

I suspect you'll need to do session logging e.g. protocol pop3 { ... rawlog_dir = /writable/logdir/%u } then mkdir /writable/logdir/user chmod 0777 /writable/logdir/user to obtain session transcripts of what server/client are doing. I don't see any obvious errors from the logs that indicate any failure. I do see the INBOX is rather large so maybe a timeout is involved. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

Re: LDAP just for passdb
by Francis Augusto Medeiros-Logeay 14 Oct '22

14 Oct '22

Again, a bit more reading got me to adding this to my passdb config: username_filter = *(a)domain-a.com This way, I can control which domains get to authenticate via my ldap backend, which gives me time to design a good way of saving other attributes there. If anyone have other ways of doing this, ie., having multiple domains on ldap/freeipa and getting an elegant integration with Dovecot, I’d be glad to hear.

Re: LDAP just for passdb
by Francis Augusto Medeiros-Logeay 14 Oct '22

I actually saw that it was possible, and it works, but I came across another problem and I wonder if you have any tips about it: On my current dovecot setup, I use SQL as the backend. So I have the following users: francis(a)domain-a.com <mailto:francis@domaina.com> francis(a)domain-b.com <mailto:francis@domain-b.com> Those are separate users which their own mailboxes. However, I have a freeipa that is configured for the `domain-a.com <http://domain-a.com/>` realm. However, since I am using `%n` for the uid search: auth_bind_userdn = uid=%n,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=domain-a,dc=com And pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%n)) It of course leads up to both users above being able to authenticate with the same password. Is there a way to limit ldap authentication to just one domain, or perform a search where both username and domain are checked? I could use the `mail``attribute to filter users, but I imagine that if two users have the same mail configured, I’d run into trouble….

LDAP just for passdb
by Francis Augusto Medeiros-Logeay 14 Oct '22

14 Oct '22

Hi, I couldn't find it in the documentation, so I was wondering - is it possible to configure Dovecot to use LDAP for passdb and keep using SQL for userdb? I would like to do that before I come up with a good strategy to expand my ldap schema to support other mail attributes for virtual domains, aliases, etc. I am currently using FreeIPA. Best, Francis

"make check" fail at test_program_refused
by A. Schulze 14 Oct '22

14 Oct '22

Hello, I moved my buildsystem to an other platform (I do not fully control) and now receive this error on "make check" Error: program tcp:127.0.0.2:42027: connect(::1) failed: Connection refused test_program_refused ................................................. : FAILED The build run on jenkins buildnodex spawn up on a kubernetes cluster. What I noticed so far: the buildnode opereate ipv4 only but has an entry in /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 c4a84c76f0d6 ::1 c4a84c76f0d6 Maybe that's the glitch ... I tried dovecot-2.3.15 and 2.3.19.1. Both fail (only the portnumber differ) Is there an option to disable only one specific test? I dislike to skip "make check" at all. Andreas

what are the options to 'interact' with a dovecot imap user
by Marc 14 Oct '22

14 Oct '22

I am looking for a user friendly way to have a user to tell the 'server' to either store or remove an email address. a. My first thought was to use imapsieve for this and have an imap sieve plugin store/remove the email address of the message that is being dragged into a predefined monitored folder. This would work with any imap client b. I was thinking about the message Flagged[1]. I am curious how would I be able to detect this (in sieve)? This does not seem to be stored in the source of the message. Although every client seems to support it, it would probably conflict with every day use cases. c. Then you have these colours and/or categories. But these do not seem to propagate across clients. Where are these even stored? Any ideas on how this can be done?

Director hashing
by Dan Conway 14 Oct '22

14 Oct '22

Hello all, I have a 2 node director setup that uses checkpassword for authentication as well as backend assignment through director tags. director_servers = 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.20 director_mail_servers = 192.168.2.10@srv1 192.168.2.11@srv2 checkpassword writes the following to Dovecot on successful authentication: proxy=y\tdirector_tag=<tag>\tport=<port>ssl=yes\tdestuser=<email>\t This seems to work just fine. However, when I attempt to view a users current hash/initial config: # doveadm director status "user(a)domain.com" Current: n/a (expires -1) Hashed: Initial config: I get null data. There does appear to be a hash mapping of some sort however: # doveadm director map -u user(a)domain.com 1140334690 # doveadm director map -h 1140334690 user(a)domain.com The use of doveadm director move has no effect. doveadm reports it moved the user, but it does not: # doveadm -v director move "user(a)domain.com" 192.168.2.11 Info: User hash 1140334690 moved to 192.168.2.11 When using checkpassword and supplying fields to Dovecot, should I also be including another field to populate hashes for director? I could be missing something obvious in the docs. I'm on version 2.3.18 (9dd8408c18). I have not included dovecot.conf due to the size. If someone needs to see it I can supply it.

keep in mind that the cert purchased is only for the name : mail.paulkudla.net thus i fail to see why it is throwing error 42, however this seems to be a patch to thunderbird as well i did not have to

One-off backup
by Ian Evans 11 Oct '22

11 Oct '22

I run a small email server for me and the missus. Six dovecot users. Our host is migrating our server instance. They usually (99.9999% lol) go off without a hitch. As we don't have dovecot running elsewhere, I'm assuming doveadm is the wrong tool. If we want to make a one-off backup prior to the migration, is shutting down postfix and running tar czf mailstorage.tgz /path/to/mail okay? Thanks.

Static build problems
by Jacob Welsh 09 Oct '22

09 Oct '22

I'm attempting to build the latest Dovecot, version 2.3.19.1, on Gales Linux, a distribution based on musl libc with all static linking. After working around some expected troubles to generate configure, such as the libtool and iconv.m4 dependencies, the build appeared to complete successfully. But on closer inspection, the plugins were installed as a bunch of .a and .la files rather than getting linked into any of the binaries, as would be necessary to actually use them. I determined that the probe for dynamic module support (DOVECOT_MODULES defined in 'm4/modules.m4') had returned a false positive: in the static configuration musl includes a stub dlopen() that always returns failure at runtime, so a compile-and-link-only test is not predictive. Libtool itself is affected in the same way, but it comes with the --disable-shared option which usually makes things works fine. Short of a proper solution (perhaps removing modules.m4 and going instead by what libtool already determined, since you've decided to depend on it anyway), I stubbed out modules.m4 to simply return the correct result for this platform, thus: AC_DEFUN([DOVECOT_MODULES], [ have_modules=no AC_SUBST(MODULE_LIBS) AC_SUBST(DLLIB) ]) Now the build is failing due to the absence of a function that's defined only when HAVE_MODULES is true: libtool: link: gcc -I../../src/lib -I../../src/lib-test -I../../src/lib-ssl-iostream -DDCRYPT_MODULE_DIR=\"/gales/pkg/dovecot-0.0-2.3.19.1/lib/dovecot\" -DDCRYPT_SRC_DIR=\"../../src/lib-dcrypt\" -std=gnu99 -g -O1 -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wall -W -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wpointer-arith -Wchar-subscripts -Wformat=2 -Wbad-function-cast -fno-builtin-strftime -Wstrict-aliasing=2 -Wl,--whole-archive -Wl,../lib-ssl-iostream/.libs/libssl_iostream.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive -o test-stream test_stream-dcrypt.o test_stream-istream-decrypt.o test_stream-ostream-encrypt.o test_stream-test-stream.o ../lib-ssl-iostream/.libs/libssl_iostream.a ../lib-test/.libs/libtest.a ../lib/.libs/liblib.a test_crypto-dcrypt.o: In function `dcrypt_initialize': /home/user/gales-linux/gports/dovecot/build/dovecot-2.3.19.1/src/lib-dcrypt/dcrypt.c:34: undefined reference to `module_dir_try_load_missing' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [Makefile:664: test-crypto] Error 1 I noticed commit d21897832a443d139d56b1fb1c86d8f76e5f77f3 from 2009, "Fixed compiling without module support", and clearly it's supposed to work since the #ifdefs are there, but I begin to suspect that nobody's actually tested this branch of the configuration tree recently. Further, looking through the automakefiles I'm not finding how the plugin libraries are supposed to work at all in this case and I begin to fear that they simply... aren't. Say it ain't so? Jacob

imapsieve removeflag ignored
by Slavko 08 Oct '22

08 Oct '22

Hi, i have working SPAM reporting implementend by imapsieve in debian's 2.3.13 dovecot. Recently i decide to add personal spam filter by bogofilter and use logic to learn/unlearn SPAM/HAM based on message flags. Here is example of moving message from Junk folder (the opossite logic is similar): if hasflag "$Junk" { execute :pipe "bogofilter" ["-Sn"]; removeflag "$Junk"; debug_log "Learned HAM (and unlearned)"; } else { execute :pipe "bogofilter" ["-n"]; debug_log "Learned HAM (only)"; } # mark as learned addflag "$NotJunk"; report ... When i move message, the debug lines in log shows, that logic works and flag is added as expected, but the other flag is not removed. Thus after moving mail from Junk, which has $Junk flag, it has both flags, the $Junk and $NotJunk. I tried to move removeflag action outside of condition and add it just before addflag, but the result is the same. For now i do not know if here is something wrong in my script, or i did some other mistake. On IRC cmouse tell, that removeflag was fixed in some early version (2.3.5 or so), but it doesn't work here. Please, how i can get it working? regards PS: please CC me, i am not subscribed -- Slavko https://www.slavino.sk/

I think this page[1] is not correct If you configure this option: imapsieve_mailbox1_before = file:/usr/lib/dovecot/sieve/report-spam.sieve the file report-spam.svbin cannot be created because users cannot write there.

Using sqlite as dict for last_auth plugin
by Oleg petol 04 Oct '22

04 Oct '22

Hi! It is required to collect statistics about the time of the last IMAP and POP3 login of the user and the delivery of letters to him via lmtp. The last-login plugin is perfect. But I don't want to use heavy databases as the mail system service is served by the Oracle DB. The most suitable option, as I see, is to store statistics in the sqlite DB, but after going through all the options in the configuration file, I could not use sqlite. When writing in configuration: plugin { driver=sqlite last_login_dict = sqlite:statsdb last_login_key = last-login/%s/%u/%r last_login_precision = ms } I am getting an error: Oct 4 17:01:41 nms4 dovecot: imap(new_ver_test(a)test2.aroma.ru)<154597><q0VJ5jXq9o4KAQDI>: Error: last_login_dict: dict_init(sqlite:statsdb) failed: Unknown dict module: sqlite I did the last-login plugin setup exactly according to the instructions: https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/mail_location/obox/last_login_… I am using standard debian packages. Desperate, I built latest dovecot version from source, but got exactly the same error. Tell me, please, is it possible to use a dictionary in sqlite format to collect last-login plugin statistics? And how should I describe it in the configuration file?

Good Morning Michael, No problem. Although, to be clear I didnt point out anything, but its Sébastien and the credit shall go for him. Also, by the way in EXIM MTA, there is verify syntax condition in data acl, which checks all email headers and validate that they are standards compliant and reject sending any email beforehand to your issue which has non-compliant header and offers the ability to remove such headers with condition handling e.g. if contained any Sieve header, to request removing message id headers with headers_remove and add compliant one with add_header, and I guess this will mitigate any mail service provider rejection issue. If you are postfix user and considering switching, let me know, I might be able to help. Zakaria.

Matching Addresses in Sieve
by Doug Hardie 01 Oct '22

01 Oct '22

I have an email with the following header line: From: 'Thank you!Kohls' <Kohls-MNc(a)FeedbackKohlsOpinionRequestedlxecrftHO.com> I am trying to match that with: if address :contains "from" "Thank you!Kohls" { addflag "\\Seen"; fileinto "Junk"; stop; } However, the matching portion of the from address is only the section between < and >. Since there are changing sections that are different for each email, I can't use that. I wanted to match the stuff before <. I have tried numerous formats for the if statement but none of them have worked. What is the proper way to make that match work? Thanks, -- Doug

new feature: sieve forward plugin
by Marc 26 Sep '22

26 Sep '22

As this page[1] describes a more often occurring problem of forwarding messages from servers that are not included in the spf records. Maybe there should be a plugin that offers this forward functionality. Something like get the spf records of the sender check if there is a -all then apply the sender substitution. https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/sieve/configuring_auto_forward…

Custom post login scripting variables via ID command
by hi＠zakaria.website 26 Sep '22

26 Sep '22

Hi there, I wonder if dovecot would consider this feature request. In post login scripting, given USER, IP, LOCAL_IP, and userdb lookup fields, are only available, I want to push additional variables from web mail to dovecot using ID commands yet I looked at the source in imap-login-cmd-id.c and script-login.c it seems to be possible while I'm not an expert in C and IMAP standards and not sure if its something would break the standards. I hope the dev team to consider this and if anyone have a workaround or an idea with I can start to patch a workaround myself, please let me know as it would be very much appreciated. With thanks. Zakaria.

what sieve variables / syntax is available to sieve scripts.
by Marc 25 Sep '22

25 Sep '22

1. where can I find all variables like "imap.user" like in mentioned on page[2] 2. I have the impression that variables like "${from}" are all being set from scanning the whole email again seeing these "if matches" statements. Is that not super inefficient? I would assume that such variables would be set and made available upon the receipt of a message. 3. What is the point of this: if environment :matches "imap.user" "*" { set "username" "${1}"; } pipe :copy "sa-learn-ham.sh" [ "${username}" ]; Why can't I just use: pipe :copy "sa-learn-ham.sh" [ "imap.user" ]; [1] require [ "vnd.dovecot.pipe", "copy", "variables" ]; if header :matches "subject" "*" { set "subject" "${1}"; } if header :matches "from" "*" { set "from" "${1}"; } pipe :args [ "USER(a)DOMAIN.TLD", "${from}", "${subject}" ] :copy :try "jabber_notify.sh" ; from page https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Plugins/Pipe [2] if environment :matches "imap.user" "*" { set "username" "${1}"; } pipe :copy "sa-learn-spam.sh" [ "${username}" ]; https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/howto/antispam_with_sieve/#how…

by Marc 24 Sep '22

24 Sep '22

Say for testing purposes I would like to add sender email addresses to a database file (eg gdbm) per user. How would I go about doing this? Do I need to create something like in https://github.com/dovecot/pigeonhole/tree/src/lib-sieve/plugins Or can I just create a go binary, and parse data to it? Is there not something like a hello world example for this?

Duplicate UID warning in dsync backups
by Doug 23 Sep '22

23 Sep '22

Hi, Running dovecot version 2.3.18 with mdbox storage. I run daily backups using dsync on the same server into maildir format. Several times per week I will get an error like the one below that prevents backups from completing. The error is always on my user, never any of my other couple dozen users. dsync(doug): Warning: Deleting mailbox 'INBOX': UID=133060 already exists locally for a different mail: GUIDs don't match (1657786027.M158587P19048.maildev.domain.com vs 581a08178e8ecf62f04700002bad4ea1) dsync(doug): Error: Couldn't delete mailbox INBOX: INBOX can't be deleted. Subsequent backups typically have a slightly different error. dsync(doug): Warning: Deleting mailbox 'INBOX': UID=132994 GUID=407c871b0ec1c562b51000002bad4ea1 is missing locally dsync(doug): Error: Couldn't delete mailbox INBOX: INBOX can't be deleted. Notice the UID and GUID are different from the first error. At this point I will identify 407c871b0ec1c562b51000002bad4ea1 in the source mailbox, and move it to another folder. More often than not that clears things up. The backup command I am using is dsync -u doug all backup maildir:/home/doug/.mailbkup/mailboxes My questions are: Is the "locally" referring to the source or the target of the backup? What might be causing this problem? What the heck is this guid: 1657786027.M158587P19048.maildev.domain.com" Note: The server is actually named mail.domain.com, not maildev.domain.com All file names in the backup maildir have mail.domain.com in them No files exist in the target maildir directory that begin with 1657786027* My original migration from mbox format to mdbox was tested and run on a server named maildev.domain.com. Is that why I am seeing a reference to maildev here? Is that name cached somewhere? Can it be corrected? Does it matter? Are there any options I should add to the dsync command to fix this problem? -- Doug

pigeonhole (manage)sieve directory permissions
by Peter Gervai 22 Sep '22

22 Sep '22

Hello, I've tried to find info (apart from looking at the sources) but it seems this isn't mentioned anywhere. The setting plugin { sieve = file:~/sievedir;active=~/.sievefilter } names the directory where the scripts are stored and the symlink pointing at one. Right now the sievedir seems to be created 0700 plus some - probably inherited - g+s. How could I change mode (to 02770 preferably)? Also the script files are created 0600 by managesieve which really would be nice to be 0660 instead. The main problem is that external programs shall stat() .sievefilter but they only share groups. Thanks, g

Outlook 365 MUA produces dovecot changing filename on some mailbox
by Emilio Augusto Lazo Zaia 21 Sep '22

21 Sep '22

Hello I have a setup on which dovecot is the server in a domain on which mailboxes are >20GB, some of them are 150GB or more. When reconfiguring _some_ mailboxes with Outlook 365 (configuring a previously used mailbox on a new PC), the process takes too long even if mail visibility on Outlook is 3 months. Inspecting at INBOX cur directory I did note that the 'ls' command shows the last file listed is a file from year 2020, 2019 or whatever not being the last received mail; that means the alphabetical ordering of 'ls' is showing past years after the last received mail, i.e. dovecot changed the epoch in filename. This only happens with Outlook. Following is an excerpt of ls: -rw-r--r-- 1 coord.ventas ventas 544765 sep 9 10:57 1662769412.M329925P1259441.xyz.com,S=544765,W=552045:2, -rw-r--r-- 1 coord.ventas ventas 163491 sep 5 12:14 1662769412.M74257P1259441.xyz.com,S=163491,W=165846:2,S -rw-r--r-- 1 coord.ventas ventas 3043536 sep 9 12:02 1662769412.M777084P1259441.xyz.com,S=3043536,W=3083246:2, -rw-r--r-- 1 coord.ventas ventas 161002 feb 27 2020 1662874173.M608062P1282222.xyz.com,S=161002,W=163373:2,S -rw-r--r-- 1 coord.ventas ventas 2230491 feb 27 2020 1662874176.M281294P1282222.xyz.com,S=2230491,W=2259506:2,S -rw-r--r-- 1 coord.ventas ventas 167925 feb 27 2020 1662874176.M741229P1282222.xyz.com,S=167925,W=170373:2,S The process of renaming files is continuous until all folder was reread and renamed every file on it. If I issue 'lsof' (with grep) I see the file that is being renamed passing through tmp/ directory and after that, the file is placed under new/ directory (I guess) and Outlook sees a new email to sync, making the sync process too long... mails that have been synced are resynced... Take a look at the timestamp on filenames: 1662769412 corresponds to "Fri Sep 9 20:23:32 -04 2022" and 1662874176 corresponds to Sun Sep 11 01:29:36 -04 2022 but mails were neither sent nor received on that dates. What is Outlook requesting imap server to do and how to avoid this? Thanks -- Emilio Augusto Lazo Zaia

doveadm-search finds emails, but IMAP search fails to find any
by Philip Warner 20 Sep '22

20 Sep '22

Using dovecot 2.3.7.2 with solr 8.11.2 when I do: doveadm search -u user mailbox INBOX subject "something" I get multiple mail ID's. When I start a manual IMAP session and login as that user, select INBOX, and try the command: . search subject "something" It returns zero mail ID's; this is consistent across all searches using IMAP - no results returned, no matter what I search for in IMAP. The dovecot -n command returns: # 2.3.7.2 (3c910f64b): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.5.7.2 () # OS: Linux 5.4.0-125-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS # Hostname: WITHELD mail_location = maildir:~/Mail mail_plugins = " fts fts_solr virtual" mail_privileged_group = mail 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 index ihave duplicate mime foreverypart extracttext namespace { location = virtual:~/Mail/virtual prefix = virtual. separator = . } 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 } mailbox virtual.All { comment = All my messages special_use = \All } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } passdb { driver = pam } plugin { fts = solr fts_autoindex = yes fts_enforced = yes fts_solr = url=http://localhost:8983/solr/dovecot/ sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve } protocols = " imap lmtp sieve pop3 sieve" service imap { vsz_limit = 4 G } service index-worker { vsz_limit = 2 G } service indexer-worker { vsz_limit = 2 G } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { address = 127.0.0.1 port = 24 } } ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/WITHELD/fullchain.pem ssl_client_ca_dir = /etc/ssl/certs ssl_dh = # hidden, use -P to show it ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } userdb { driver = passwd } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = " fts fts_solr virtual sieve" postmaster_address = WITHELD } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " fts fts_solr virtual sieve" } protocol imap { mail_max_userip_connections = 40 } -

Thunderbird can't connect to Dovecot (bad certificate: SSL alert number 42)
by Meikel 19 Sep '22

19 Sep '22

Hi folks, on a Rocky Linux 8.6 based home server I run Dovecot with an account that I use as an archive. Archive means, that from different Thunderbird instances I connect to that Dovecot via IMAPS to move emails there, that I want to keep. Since some days from all Thunderbird instances I can no longer connect to that Dovecot account. In /var/log/maillog of the server I see Sep 14 06:39:54 server3 dovecot[2033173]: imap-login: Disconnected: Connection closed: SSL_accept() failed: error:14094412:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert bad certificate: SSL alert number 42 (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=192.168.177.105, lip=192.168.177.13, TLS handshaking: SSL_accept() failed: error:14094412:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert bad certificate: SSL alert number 42, session=<dL1luJvokK3AqLFp> I found that Openssl alert number 42 might be a problem with the SSL certificate (which certificate?) but also might be an expired SSL certificate (which certificate?). As on the Dovecot installation I work with a self signed certificat. I created a new self signed certificate yesterday with an expiry not before year 2032. That did not help, I see the same messages when I try to connect from Thunderbird. Just to see how Thunderbird is involved in the problem I installed Claws-Mail. From Claws-Mail I do NOT have those problems, I can access to Dovecot via IMAPS as expected. I do not understand why all my Thunderbird installations can no longer access Dovecot via IMAPS. This worked fine for about 18 months. I can't prove but I think on beginning of month it worked fine. Something happened meanwhile. If there is a problem with an SSL certificate (bad certificate: SSL alert number 42), which certificate makes the problem? The certificate used by Dovecot or some certificate used in Thunderbird?

Bug report: TLS SNI for LDAP userdb/passdb
by Tobias Wolter 18 Sep '22

18 Sep '22

Cheers, Dovecot 2.3.4.1 (Debian stable) here, and the changelog does not offer any hope of salvation, so a bug report it is. The LDAP connections for userdb/passdb do not support SNI via TLS. Simple construct to reproduce this: 0.) Have a.pem with SAN `foo.example.com`, b.pem with `bar.example.com` 1.) Configure haproxy frontend with `bind *:636 ssl crt /foo/a.pem ssl crt /foo/b.pem` 2.) Try to use ldaps://bar.example.com/ in passdb, receive "auth: Error: LDAP: Can't connect to server: ldaps://bar.example.com" Expectation, of course, would be for this to work; most libraries should support it, it's probably just a matter of convincing the appropriate binding. Kind regards, -towo

Overquota flag and auth caching
by Christian Rößner 13 Sep '22

13 Sep '22

Hello, I like the over quota flag mechanism in Dovecot. I found out that I get in trouble if a user gets over quota and I have turned on auth caching, because the cache does not automatically invalidate a user while toggling the flag. The cache still serves the old state. The result is that mails are still accepted, even a user went over quota resulting in bounces. Workaround is to flush a user from inside the toggle script, which solves the bounce problem, but it prevents the user from getting under quota before the user is flushed from the cache again. What is the correct way to use the over quota flag and which solutions can be taken to invalidate the user? Is it possible to do this in a Lua user backend? Any other method?

real duplicates of some e-mails / dovecot-2.3.19
by Götz Reinicke 13 Sep '22

13 Sep '22

Hi, we have the issue, that some(!) e-mails we receive are duplicated when processed by dovecot and stored to the users inbox. The mails are binary identical, same message ID, same size etc. diff sees no difference …. For now we only see that it happens do small mails max. +- 5k in size. And in dose not happen for all mails, but some are spam, some are internal mails some are newsletter which are expected…. and it happens for different users. Dose anyone have/had a similar issue? Any suggestion or idea would be helpful. Thanks . Götz

Handling imap from outlook 365
by Todd Krein 12 Sep '22

12 Sep '22

I apologize if this has been answered before, but... Microsoft Outlook 365 doesn't allow a user to specify the account name for an imap acout, only the email address. Thus fred(a)smith.com<mailto:fred@smith.com> tries to log in as "fred(a)smith.com<mailto:fred@smith.com>" rather than "fred". Has anyone seen a way to fix this (Microsoft help boards are silent), perhaps by stripping the "@smith.com" during the logon procedure?

Outlook 365 (RE: dovecot Digest, Vol 233, Issue 20)
by Todd Krein 12 Sep '22

12 Sep '22

Emilio, Thanks for the suggestions, but neither of these worked for me. Manual setup on Outlook 365 (I think as opposed to Outlook 202x), doesn't let you set the account name directly. It's being "helpful." Interestingly enough, if you set up as POP3, it realizes the account name is wrong and lets you enter it once you try to sync. Not so with IMAP. I was able to create the new account on the control panel, but outlook365 ignores all those accounts.

Unclear how to get both user and domain quotas to work
by Hans van Zijst 10 Sep '22

10 Sep '22

Hi, First of all: my apologies for this long message. I'm trying to post all the information anybody could need to help me on my way. What I'm trying to make is an installation where both users and domains can have quotas. Ideally I would configure a quota for a domain and set a quota of 0 for all users within that domain, so that mail will be accepted up to the point where the domain quota is reached. Setting up user quota was fairly easy, there's lots of documentation around and examples to take inspiration from. Not so much for domain quota however, or I'm really bad at searching the Net. I'm running Debian Bullseye here: MariaDB 10.5.12 Dovecot 2.3.13 Postfixadmin 3.3.10 I want to use dictionaries in MySQL, because eventually this will be a platform with several Dovecot and Postfix servers. At this time I'm only running one Dovecot installation and a few Postfix servers (two for communication with the outside world and one to do the virus and spam scanning). My current setup for user quota is how Postfixadmin wants it: MariaDB [postfixadmin]> desc quota2; +----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra | +----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | username | varchar(100) | NO | PRI | NULL | | | bytes | bigint(20) | NO | | 0 | | | messages | int(11) | NO | | 0 | | +----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ 3 rows in set (0.001 sec) In /etc/dovecot/conf.d/90-quota.conf I have this: plugin { quota = dict:User quota::proxy::sqlquota quota_rule = *:bytes=1024M quota_rule2 = Trash:bytes=+100M quota_vsizes = yes quota_status_success = DUNNO quota_status_nouser = DUNNO quota_status_overquota = "552 5.2.2 Mailbox is full" } dict { sqlquota = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext } The SQL-configuration /etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext is this: connect = host=... dbname=... user=... password=... map { pattern = priv/quota/storage table = quota2 username_field = username value_field = bytes } map { pattern = priv/quota/messages table = quota2 username_field = username value_field = messages } map { pattern = shared/expire/$user/$mailbox table = expires value_field = expire_stamp fields { username = $user mailbox = $mailbox } } I use LMTP to accept mail from Postfix; the quota-plugin is activated for LMTP, so every incoming mail should be counted. This works like a charm: if I don't configure a quota for a user, he gets the default 1GB, if I override it in Postfixadmin, then that's what he gets. I'm running quota-status on a TCP-port, so the gateway SMTP-servers can connect to Dovecot for a quotacheck to decide whether to accept or reject an incoming message. Again, this works flawlessly. I can't find any serious documentation about this mapping thing. In particular, what's with that "pattern"? All I can find in the documentation is: "The dict key must match exactly priv/quota/storage. The dict keys are hardcoded in the Dovecot code, so depending on what functionality you’re configuring you need to know the available dict keys used it." -- https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/dict/#dict-sql If anyone can point me at better documentation than the actual source code: please! I browsed through the quota-plugin source code, but I'm not a programmer and couldn't find what I thought I was looking for. That said, I'm not sure where I got the third "map" from, with the shared/expire pattern. I seem to have forgotten to document that bit of my journey. Now, domain quotas... I've tried all kinds of stuff, but at the moment I'm stuck with something that seems to almost work. I added a second quota root: plugin { quota2 = dict:Domain quota:%d:proxy::sqldomainquota quota2_rule = *:bytes=1024M quota2_status_success = DUNNO quota2_status_nouser = DUNNO quota2_status_overquota = "552 5.2.2 Domain quota exceeded" quota2_vsizes = yes } dict { sqldomainquota = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext } This dict refers to the same mapping as the one for user quotas, and I think that's the way it should be. Please correct me if I'm wrong. This creates a new user in the quota2 table, by the name of just the domain. Unfortunately, it simply fills it with the numbers from the first user it can find in that domain, not all users in that domain combined. What I think I should do, is change something in the dict so that it sums up all users in that domain, something like this: SELECT SUM(bytes) FROM quota2 WHERE username LIKE '%@domain'; Problem is that I can't find anything useful online with regards to this, I'm not even sure if I'm thinking in the right direction here. Any hints, suggestions or corrections? Or pointers to articles or documentation I might have missed? Kind regards, Hans

Old-stats plugin and fifo_listener permissions
by Grant Keller 10 Sep '22

10 Sep '22

Hello, Currently working on using the old-stats plugin in dovecot version 2.3.10.1. What file permissions are recommended for the old-stats-mail and old-stats-user sockets? I was seeing a lack of data from the doveadm oldstats dump command until I adjusted the default config to the following: service old-stats { fifo_listener old-stats-mail { group = mode = 0666 user = root } fifo_listener old-stats-user { group = mode = 0666 user = } } Not totally clear on which processes need read or write on those so any advice is appreciated.

Managesieve not working
by Francis Augusto Medeiros-Logeay 09 Sep '22

09 Sep '22

Hi, I am running dovecot 2.3.7.2 on ubuntu, and have a replication setup. I noticed that managesieve doesn't seem to be working. On my backup MX, doing a telnet to 4190 gets me the proper greetings, but doing the same on my main server just gave me the normal telnet "Escape character is..." I get the following info on the server: root@d0ba5bb19b6b:/# doveadm service status managesieve name: managesieve process_count: 0 process_avail: 0 process_limit: 1024 client_limit: 1 throttle_secs: 0 exit_failure_last: 0 exit_failures_in_sec: 0 last_drop_warning: 0 listen_pending: n listening: y doveadm_stop: n But when attempting to connect, it doesn't work. Any advice? Best, Francis

Config file syntax: secrets from file in key=value
by Tobias Florek 06 Sep '22

06 Sep '22

Hi! I'd like to set up proxy authentication. This works fine, but I cannot get the passwords in to be read from file. Specifically I have this passdb block. passdb { driver = passwd-file mechanisms = plain scram-sha-256 default_fields = proxy=y host=dovecot-backend master=imapc-master-user proxy_mech=plain pass=</run/secrets/dovecot.imapc-master-user/password args = /run/secrets/dovecot.generated.app-passwd-file/passwd } This sets the password to the string /run/secrets/dovecot.imapc-master-user/password. I'd like the password to be set to the content of said file. Is it possible to get the password from a file or less desirable from the environment? Reading https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/config_file/ I assume it's not. Cheers, Tobias Florek

Bypass quota check
by Gabriele Nencioni 05 Sep '22

05 Sep '22

Hi all, I have the following quota configuration: lmtp_rcpt_check_quota = no mail_plugins = notify mail_log quota quota = dict:User quota::file:%h/dovecot-quota quota_exceeded_message = Quota exceeded quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M quota_warning = storage=100%% quota-warning -q 100 -n %n -d %d -e OverQuota quota_warning2 = storage=80%% quota-warning -q 80 -n %n -d %d -e FillQuota quota_warning3 = -storage=99%% quota-warning -q 99 -n %n -d %d -e InQuota quota_full_tempfail = yes service quota-warning { executable = script /usr/local/dovecot/quotamanager.sh unix_listener quota-warning { mail_plugins = notify mail_log quota imap_quota imap_sieve mail_plugins = notify mail_log quota sieve and the quota_rule (per-user) is retrieved by a specific SQL query in my userdb. I'm wondering if there is a way to send an email to an account even if it's in overquota? In other words: is there a way to bypass (or skip) the quota check, maybe setting a sort of ACL, for example if an email comes from a specific ip address? Thanks in advance Regards, -- Gabriele Nencioni

Thousands of SSL certificates stalls new logins during reload - problem with Dovecot config process
by Bartosz Kwitniewski 05 Sep '22

05 Sep '22

Hello, I'm running a dovecot 2.3.19.1 server that has around 6000 SSL certificates in separate config files, each containing: local_name "domain" { ssl_cert = ... ssl_key = ... } When new certificate is added, dovecot is reloaded (around 20 times a day). When dovecot is being reloaded, users are unable to log in for around 30 seconds. The main problem here seems to be that during reload, new config process is immediately designated as the one serving config requests and then it starts parsing config files, which takes around 20-30 seconds. If it would parse config files first, and only then would become a new process for serving config requests, then it would probably solve the problem. Or perhaps there is a better way to load new certificates or a way to optimize? There is another problem with config process and shutdown_clients=no. We do not want to disconnect users during reload, because e.g. Thunderbird displays a popup that server is shutting down. When there are long lasting IMAP connections from Google and other services that aggregate e-mail, old config process is not being killed. Because config process with ~6000 certificates is using ~1 GB of RAM, it can quickly rise to 20 GB of memory used. This is not a big issue however, because we have created a task that kills old processes, but there could be a built-in mechanism to solve that problem. I have created minimal configuration and scripts to recreate problem. Reproduction steps below.

Call procmail after sieve
by George Asenov 01 Sep '22

01 Sep '22

Hello, I'm trying to achieve the following scenario with dovecot + sieve + procmail. Dovecot is set as LDA in postfix (if this makes any difference) I need to set sieve that after it has executed all it's scripts (including before, ~/.sieve etc) and if keep is in still in effect to call procmail to also execute the custom user filters and then return (if it is not forwarded elsewhere or some) to dovecot for normal delivery.

Lazy Expunge - why oh why deprecating namespace storage for this
by Matt Bryant 01 Sep '22

01 Sep '22

Hi Dovecot, Noticed on your web site that you have marked lazy_expunge storage location to namespace as deprecated since v2.3.0 and suggest a single mailbox with acl is the way to go. This seems to be a backward step for those that make use of the alt storage facility. Is there anyway we can persuade you NOT to deprecate this - it still works atm Why ? Well scenario time .... Installations make use of alt-storage feature so that new messages can be stored along with indexes etc on faster storage, whilst offloading older less viewed mail to a different storage tier. With storage to namespace - that namespace can have a location set that separates it from the mailbox (maybe even on a 3rd tier of storage) BUT with the mailbox solution then any deleted mail will in fact return from the alternate storage to the primary storage, and then will need to have a job run to alt-move it back off the faster storage to sit with the older messages and also can no longer be a potential 3rd tier of storage. This seems crazy and in fact some of reason mdbox is avoided since purging an mdbox means that any messages on alt-storage gets pulled back to primary storage. Alternately are there plans to allow a mailbox to have a 'location' in which case the location of the expunge mailbox could be set differently ? rgds Matt

where to setup virtual_mailbox_maps
by frakass 31 Aug '22

31 Aug '22

Hello, I have a domain in virtual_mailbox_domains: aaa.com I have also the virtual_alias_domains which include: bbb.com I know how to forward x(a)bbb.com to y(a)aaa.com by setting up the file "virtual_alias_maps": x(a)bbb.com y(a)aaa.com (and run postmap after the changes.) But, how can I setup virtual_mailbox_maps (if I name this correctly)? for example, 111(a)aaa.com forwards to 222(a)aaa.com. Thank you.

I am using this file: dovecot-sql.conf.ext and in there I have a connect = "host=<dbserver> dbname=<dbname> user=<dbuser> password=<dbpass>" My <dbserver> was down and I lost mail access for a few days before I realized that there was an issue. How can I specify a backup server so that if my primary sql server goes down, a backup sql server will be queried? -- jack

Understanding Auth-Worker Logging
by dovecot＠ptld.com 29 Aug '22

29 Aug '22

Sometimes when auth-worker gets logged there is an extra 'field' combined with the username and IP inside the sql() section. dovecot[911]: auth-worker(8131): conn unix:auth-worker (pid=3870,uid=97): auth-worker<2>: sql(user(a)example.com,xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,<8Q4ycCznAPdoiAwp>): Password mismatch (SHA1 of given password: 6ef33886cc5e17a60590cb4badac98d2960b6914) What is the "<8Q4ycCznAPdoiAwp>" and why is it logged only sometimes? Is there any documentation explaining what's inside of logs for dovecot?

Replication not working - GUIDs conflict - will be merged later
by Patrick Westenberg 28 Aug '22

28 Aug '22

Hi everyone, I have a weird problem with replication that I'm unable to solve. A new account is sychronized from an external provider via imapsync. The mails end up on my backend1. I see that the folder structure is immediately replicated to backend2. However, a lot of mails are missing and "doveadm replicator status" also states that something failed: priority fast sync full sync success sync failed mail(a)example.com none 00:02:36 00:39:47 - y There are no error log entries regarding this user at all. After some research I tried to start the replication manually with "doveadm -D backup -u mail(a)example.com -d tcp:x.y.z.11" and finally I got an error message: Jul 31 13:55:37 doveadm(mail(a)example.com)<11341><rm1YCblt5mJNLAAAJFg/Tg>: Debug: brain M: Mailbox INBOX: local=e74590221b6ce6620d29000024583f4e/0/1, remote=20a9ce2b1c6ce662244e0000baba0ddd/0/1: GUIDs conflict - will be merged later As a matter of fact, the mails in the inbox are the ones that are missing on backend2. I always end up with this error, no matter what I do: - I completely removed the folder structure on backend2. - I removed all database entries. - I removed this user from the replication, ran imapsync again followed by "doveadm -D backup ..." I also removed fts-flatcurve to rule this out as a cause of error. I have no idea what to do. This configuration worked for months.

Sieve Symlink Creation
by dovecot＠ptld.com 26 Aug '22

26 Aug '22

The first time when the sieve files and folders get created, the active symlink is created as a full absolute path .active_sieve -> /mnt/email/domain/user/_sieve/filters.sieve After that, if you disable and enable the rule set the symlink gets recreated as relative .active_sieve -> filters.sieve How can i have the symlink always created as a relative path even on first time creation? Having a full absolute path over a mounted NSF is fragile.

Is this safe?
by Jaroslaw Rafa 25 Aug '22

25 Aug '22

Hello, I asked about this a few days ago, but since nobody answered in that thread, I'd like to bring it up again as a separate thread. Maybe somebody answers... I have written a policy service for Postfix that checks whether the connecting IP address has currently an IMAP session open. For this, it needs to access the socket /var/run/dovecot/anvil. But by default, this socket is accessible only for root, and I obviously DON'T want my service to run as root: srw------- 1 root root 0 May 22 2020 /var/run/dovecot/anvil By modifying Dovecot configuration I was able to chnge the permissions on that socket to: srw-rw---- 1 root dovecot 0 Aug 21 20:47 /var/run/dovecot/anvil Then my service can run under the user "dovecot" and access the socket. Here's my question: did I create any security risk by changing the socket permissions like above and running my service under "dovecot" user? Or will it be better that I create a special user dedicated only for this service and run the service under that user? -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa raj(a)rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub."

namespace directives from userdb not being applied
by Brendan Braybrook 24 Aug '22

24 Aug '22

hi all, i'm having a strange issue. i have a few dovecot instances running: 1- debian 10 with debian's dovecot-core 1:2.3.4.1-5+deb10u5 2- debian 10 with debian's dovecot-core 1:2.3.4.1-5+deb10u6 3- debian 11 with dovecot's dovecot-core 2:2.3.19.1-2+debian11 for all these, i've just been testing with a static userdb (ignore if the login user was different; they all had the same userdb data.. various different passdb configs were tried (none do any userdb prefetching): userdb { driver = static args = mail=maildir:/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b@b.com/:INDEX=/mail/index03/492/177/b@b.com/ home=/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b(a)b.com/ namespace=inbox,share namespace/inbox/separator=/ namespace/share/separator=/ namespace/share/prefix=boop/ } instance #2 and #3 don't seem to pass all the namespace directives i'm passing through to the imap process. (i originally found it happening with a lua userdb script then noticed it with a dict userdb, but the simpler static userdb still shows it happening so i don't think it's related to the different userdb mechanisms themselves) debug looks like: auth: Debug: master userdb out: USER 3466461185 b(a)b.com mail=maildir:/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b@b.com/:INDEX=/mail/index03/492/177/b@b.com/ home=/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b(a)b.com/ namespace=inbox,share namespace/inbox/separator=/ namespace/share/separator=/ namespace/share/prefix=boop/ auth_mech=PLAIN auth_token=bcdb366d56f4fceee83775a1b28ca89ccdf881fd script-login(b(a)b.com)<56895><>: Debug: Added userdb setting: mail=maildir:/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b@b.com/:INDEX=/mail/index03/492/177/b@b.com/ script-login(b(a)b.com)<56895><>: Debug: Added userdb setting: namespace=inbox,share script-login(b(a)b.com)<56895><>: Debug: Added userdb setting: namespace/inbox/separator=/ script-login(b(a)b.com)<56895><>: Debug: Added userdb setting: namespace/share/prefix=boop/ script-login(b(a)b.com)<56895><>: Debug: Added userdb setting: namespace/share/separator=/ imap(b(a)b.com)<56894><9mFyornjaMcKyAUI>: Debug: Added userdb setting: mail=maildir:/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b@b.com/:INDEX=/mail/index03/492/177/b@b.com/ imap(b(a)b.com)<56894><9mFyornjaMcKyAUI>: Debug: Added userdb setting: namespace=inbox,share imap(b(a)b.com)<56894><9mFyornjaMcKyAUI>: Debug: Namespace inbox: type=private, prefix=, sep=, inbox=yes, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=maildir:/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b@b.com/:INDEX=/mail/index03/492/177/b@b.com/ imap(b(a)b.com)<56894><9mFyornjaMcKyAUI>: Debug: Namespace : type=private, prefix=, sep=, inbox=no, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=maildir:/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b@b.com/:INDEX=/mail/index03/492/177/b@b.com/ the script-login task notes that these userdb settings are being added: namespace=inbox,share namespace/inbox/separator=/ namespace/share/prefix=boop/ namespace/share/separator=/ but the imap task only notes one: namespace=inbox,share both of these two instances end up getting an error because the imap task didn't pick up the prefix: Error: namespace configuration error: Duplicate namespace prefix: "" instance #1 behaves differently. it's script-login task debug is the same, but the imap debug notes: imap(bigip-imap(a)nagios.tucows.com)<2146><s3ctO7njd6cKBS39>: Debug: Added userdb setting: mail=maildir:/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b@b.com/:INDEX=/mail/index03/492/177/b@b.com/ imap(bigip-imap(a)nagios.tucows.com)<2146><s3ctO7njd6cKBS39>: Debug: Added userdb setting: namespace=inbox,share imap(bigip-imap(a)nagios.tucows.com)<2146><s3ctO7njd6cKBS39>: Debug: Added userdb setting: namespace/inbox/separator=/ imap(bigip-imap(a)nagios.tucows.com)<2146><s3ctO7njd6cKBS39>: Debug: tc_empty_notify_plugin init imap(bigip-imap(a)nagios.tucows.com)<2146><s3ctO7njd6cKBS39>: Debug: Namespace inbox: type=private, prefix=, sep=/, inbox=yes, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=maildir:/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b@b.com/:INDEX=/mail/index03/492/177/b@b.com/ imap(bigip-imap(a)nagios.tucows.com)<2146><s3ctO7njd6cKBS39>: Debug: Namespace : type=private, prefix=, sep=, inbox=no, hidden=no, list=yes, subscriptions=yes location=maildir:/mail/mailstore03/492/177/b@b.com/:INDEX=/mail/index03/492/177/b@b.com/ on this one, the imap task notes that it added ALL the namespace directives, and consequently doesn't have any namespace prefix collisions. the difference between 1:2.3.4.1-5+deb10u5 and 1:2.3.4.1-5+deb10u6 doesn't seem that great, and the bug tracker for it doesn't indicate anything around userdb would be patched (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=970386) but the problem still seems to exist in 2.3.19 - can anyone else see the same thing happening with the current builds? thanks! -brendan

Dovecot ACLs and XOAUTH2
by Felix Auringer 23 Aug '22

23 Aug '22

Hi, we're trying to set up an IMAP server using Dovecot as part of a new email system in a middle-sized company (around 150 employees). We have a keycloak identity server that is used for all logins and we would also like to use it for the new email system so that the non-technical employees (the majority) will have no issues using it. It's very nice that XOAUTH2 is already included in Dovecot, it works very well with our Roundcube web client. However, it seems that other clients like Thunderbird or Android Apps like FairEmail are not easy to set up as they have their XOAUTH providers hardcoded somewhere (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1602166) Are you aware of any solution to integrate a dovecot server using XOAUTH2 into local clients (like Thunderbird)? We are currently trying to do it with passwords that can be set in Keycloak only for the purpose of email that can then be used to receive a valid token via a direct access grant but it's not a really nice solution as it introduces an additional password. Additionally, we would like to have all permission-related information saved in our identity server. For email, this includes shared mailboxes that a user is allowed to access. The ACL plugin that is used for shared mailboxes currently reads the permissions from disk which is not really feasible if the user base is large and setting these permissions should happen automatically. We are thinking the best way to do this is to encode the user's permissions in the token that dovecot receives in the login process. But as the token is only available in the authentication process and it does not seem to be intended to return such information from the password database (https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/authentication/password_databa…) we are unsure on how to process these information from the token. We did not find any plugin hooks in the authentication processes and the normal plugin hooks do not have access to information from the token anymore. What do you think is the best way to do this? We would be okay modifying some dovecot source code and contributing it back if desired.

Should one prevent reconnection before expunge?
by Jack Cecil 22 Aug '22

22 Aug '22

Hello. From my understanding the 'autoexpunge' feature activates on user disconnect. But could you help me understand the 'doveadm expunge' feature better? If a Maildir has 20 thousand messages and user is reading it over IMAP I have a suspicion it is not a good idea to be rewriting the dovecot cache at the same time. Should I temporarily prevent login (e.g. with passwd-file deny) and then kick them before the expunge? Thank you.

Get a list of currently active IMAP connections?
by Jaroslaw Rafa 22 Aug '22

22 Aug '22

Hello Dovecot community, I have a question: is it possible to programmatically get from Dovecot a list of currently active IMAP sessions (with IP addresses)? Via a plugin or something? Or just check if there is an IMAP session currently open from a particular IP address, with true/false type answer? I'm planning to implement a policy service for *Postfix* that will revive the old "POP before SMTP" authorization concept (only it will be "IMAP before SMTP" this time). This policy service will reject connections to mail submission ports (465, 587) - without even going to SMTP AUTH phase - unless the connecting IP address has currently an IMAP session open to Dovecot, to mitigate SMTP AUTH attacks. But for this I need some way to check from within this policy service if the particular IP address has a connection open or not. It could be of course obtained by scanning Dovecot logs, but this involves quite a large overhead. Therefore I'm looking for the way to get this information directly from Dovecot's current state. Can you advise me of any way to do this? Or maybe someone has already written such a piece of software and it is available somewhere on the Net? -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa raj(a)rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub."

Adding new server (POP3 only)
by Antonino Esposito 21 Aug '22

21 Aug '22

Good morning, we're facing a spike in users activation and we've decided to add another server for POP3 only. Since our dovecot is currently backed by NFS, i'm under the impression we just need to add a new instance listening for POP3, backed by the same NFS. However, i'm afraid the existing POP3 users will download the messages once again, due to the fact the responding server will be on a different IP address, even if the hostname will be exactly the same. Am i right in this assumption? Have you any advice for me? Thanks Antonino

Fields not showing in openmetrics statistics
by Rybkin Vladimir 17 Aug '22

Hello I'm trying to configure stats with openmetrics Dovecot version: 2.3.19 I make the settings as follows: ``` # cat /home/beget/dovecot/conf/conf.d/90-openmetrics.conf | grep -v -E "^#" service stats { inet_listener http { port = 9900 } } event_exporter log { format = json format_args = time-rfc3339 transport = log } metric imap_commands { exporter = log filter = event=* } metric imap_command { filter = event=imap_command_finished fields = bytes_in bytes_out group_by = cmd_name tagged_reply_state } ``` The problem is that no matter what configuration I do, the fields parameter is not displayed in openmetrics ``` # curl http://192.168.20.252:9900/metrics | grep -v -E "^#\ " | grep imap_command % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 4891 100 4891 0 0 285k 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 341k dovecot_imap_commands_total 388 dovecot_imap_commands_duration_seconds_total 24.225760 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="NAMESPACE"} 1 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="NAMESPACE",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 1 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="ID"} 4 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="ID",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 4 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="ENABLE"} 4 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="ENABLE",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 4 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="SELECT"} 3 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="SELECT",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 3 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="GETQUOTAROOT"} 3 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="GETQUOTAROOT",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 3 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="UID FETCH"} 19 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="UID FETCH",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 19 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="LIST"} 2 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="LIST",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 2 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="IDLE"} 1 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="IDLE",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 1 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="STATUS"} 2 dovecot_imap_command_total{cmd_name="STATUS",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 2 dovecot_imap_command_count 39 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="NAMESPACE"} 0.000218 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="NAMESPACE",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 0.000218 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="ID"} 0.000900 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="ID",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 0.000900 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="ENABLE"} 0.000332 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="ENABLE",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 0.000332 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="SELECT"} 0.028734 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="SELECT",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 0.028734 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="GETQUOTAROOT"} 0.127621 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="GETQUOTAROOT",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 0.127621 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="UID FETCH"} 0.097117 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="UID FETCH",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 0.097117 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="LIST"} 0.003738 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="LIST",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 0.003738 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="IDLE"} 7.397259 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="IDLE",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 7.397259 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="STATUS"} 0.041169 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_total{cmd_name="STATUS",tagged_reply_state="OK"} 0.041169 dovecot_imap_command_duration_seconds_sum 7.697088 ``` It is displayed through doveadm ``` #

Re: dovecot/config processes open, and consuming all memory

From: Aki Tuomi <aki.tuomi(a)open-xchange.com> > The *default* configuration for service config is usually just fine. > Is there some reason you decided to modify it in first place? Are you asking me, or the OP? I guess the blunt answer is ignorance on my part. However, I pointed out that the docs about this setting is somewhat misleading -- it's used to limit any potential memory leaks for long-lived processes by ensuring it terminates periodically. I read this and thought to myself "this is a good thing to do", without realizing that it would have the opposite effect as lingering clients could delay service termination indefinitely. The side effect is many new processes are spawned to handle new clients, and eventually the maximum process limit is reached, and chaos ensues. So for services like imap-login and others that can have lingering clients, the only sensible values for service_limit is {0,1}. If you set service_limit>1, the asymptotic behaviour is like service_limit=1, and process_limit would have to be adjusted accordingly. The docs can explain this rather wordy and subtle explanation of service_limit, or service_limit can be constrained to values {0,1} so that others don't blunder along the same path I did.

My description of problem https://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot%40dovecot.org/msg85850.html Your situation is slgihtly different (service not imap_login, and idle_kill timeout should reduce lingering processes that caused my problem), but try setting service_limit to either 0 or 1 and see if your problem goes away, or gets worse. You can also see how many file descriptors are being held by the config process, and see the behaviour over time (e.g. monitor /proc/{pid}/fd/*); maybe that will give you a clue as to what the config process is doing.

Slow IMAP SORT
by Ewald Dieterich 16 Aug '22

16 Aug '22

The following IMAP SORT with 2 sort criteria is very slow on an mdbox mailbox with lots of mails (more than 10,000) and an empty cache: . SORT (ARRIVAL DATE) UTF-8 ALL Each mail is opened when the SORT is executed, which is slow, given the number of mails in the mailbox. Debug: Mailbox INBOX: UID 1003: Opened mail because: header stream <repeated for each mail> Repeating the SORT opens all mails again and again: Debug: Mailbox INBOX: UID 1003: Opened mail because: header stream <repeated for each mail> If I just sort by ARRIVAL, the SORT is fast and I don't see any "Opened mail because" messages in the debug log. . SORT (ARRIVAL) UTF-8 ALL If I just sort by DATE, the first SORT is slow. . SORT (DATE) UTF-8 ALL The debug log looks like this: Debug: Mailbox INBOX: UID 1003: Opened mail because: header Date (Mail has other cached fields, reset_id=1633683216) <repeated for each mail> This fills the cache and if I sort by DATE again, the SORT is fast and I don't get any more "Opened mail because" messages in the debug log. If I now repeat "SORT (ARRIVAL DATE)", the SORT is fast, the mails are not opened. If I clear the cache, "SORT (ARRIVAL DATE)" goes back to being slow, not filling the cache. This doesn't seem right. "SORT (ARRIVAL DATE)" should also fill the cache to execute repeated SORTS faster, right?

convert mdbox to maildir
by lutz.niederer＠gmx.net 14 Aug '22

14 Aug '22

Hi! We need to move all users from one (pretty old) installation of dovecot to a new one. The old one uses mdbox for users' mailboxes and maildir for shared/public mailboxes. The new one must be maildir only. I believe that I can just copy the shared/public maildir structure to the new installation without problems. Am I right? Do I have to expect any trouble? (Set owner, permissions etc...) The real problem is that we must not use the running, old dovecot installation. So we are not able to connect to the old server, pull all folders and mails and create a new maildir structure. Currently, we can't do anything against it. What we get are the users' mdbox files. Is there any way to convert mdbox files and structures to maildir directly from filesystem? Or do we have to build a copy of the old machine (dovecot only, or -maybe better- a vm) and then use doveadm backup? Or is it ok to just set up the completely new installation, set mail_location to where the new Maildirs will be, like maildir:~/Maildir and then run something like doveadm backup mdbox:/tmp/$user/mdbox -u $user? Will this transfer all mails and folders or do we have to keep an eye on some specific things? I thank you very much and cheers! -lutzn

Submission auth gssapi: line too long
by Carlos Mogas da Silva 14 Aug '22

Hey guys. Dovecot is complaining about a "Line too long" when the clients send the AUTH command with GSSAPI authentication. Known bug? # dovecot --version 2.3.19.1 (9b53102964) This is right after the EHLO command (which is after STARTTLS): [1]: No more commands pending [1]: Sending replies [1]: No more commands pending [1]: Client sent invalid command: Command line is too long [1]: command [unknown]: Invalid command [1]: command [unknown]: 500 reply: Submitted [1]: command [unknown]: Replied [1]: command [unknown]: Ready to reply [1]: Trigger output [1]: Sending replies [1]: command [unknown]: Next to reply [1]: command [unknown]: Completed [1]: command [unknown]: 500 reply: Sent: 500 5.5.2 Line too long [1]: command [unknown]: Finished [1]: command [unknown]: Destroy [1]: command [unknown]: 500 reply: Destroy [1]: Trigger output

mdbox: purge only if it's worthwhile
by Sven Strickroth 12 Aug '22

12 Aug '22

Hi, with the mdbox storage one needs to regularly run purge to really clean up deleted mails from the storage. Running purge can be an IO intensive task as the files are append-only and even if in a 10 MB mdbox file only a small mail is deleted all other mails need to be copied to a new file. Therefore, I wonder whether there is the option to apply a threshold before a mdbox file is cleaned up, e.g. only purge an old mail if this affects > 10% of the mdbox filesize or if at least X bytes will be freed in an mdbox file. Is this possible ATM? Otherwise this can be seen as a feature request. Best, Sven PS: From the docs it's unclear to me how the mdbox rotating algorithm works. Is only to the latest mdbox file appended or it is possible that a small mail might be appended to an older mdbox file?

pre-define or alter list of IMAP keywords
by spi 11 Aug '22

11 Aug '22

I am using Dovecot 2.3.4.1 with sdbox and mostly Thunderbird on Linux and FairEmail on Android as IMAP clients. I use a defined set of IMAP keywords to allow different users to mark and filter their mails based on keywords. That works pretty well but I stumble across an issue from time to time: In TB I can pre-define a list of keywords which the user can choose one from. FairEmail shows all those keywords Dovecot presents - there is nothing like the list in TB. Issue 1: If there are no mails flagged in a folder, Dovecot doesn't present any keywords and therefore FairEmail shows none - the user has to remember and type in the correct keyword. Issue 2: After some time FairEmail shows a huge list of keywords for the INBOX, even keywords not in use for quite some time. To get rid of these keywords I deleted the index files on Dovecot (which with sdbox are not meant to be deleted?). It seems, Dovecot caches the keywords in the index files. Question: 1) Is there a way on Dovecot to define a list of keywords Dovecot presents to the IMAP clients? 2) If not, is there a nicer way to clean the keyword lists from old entries not assigned to any mail in that folder? -- Cheers spi

Sieve rule for whitelisting domains after spam processing
by Nicolae Iuoras 10 Aug '22

10 Aug '22

Hello, My mail server has a global Sieve rule defined in sieve_before to file messages classified as spam by spamassassin into the Spam folder: require ["regex", "fileinto", "imap4flags"]; if allof (header :regex "X-Spam-Status" "^Yes") { fileinto "Spam"; } This works great, except I'd like the ability to whitelist certain senders or domains whose emails end up in Spam, usually due to a misconfigured SPF DNS TXT record or something like that. I use Roundcube as my Webmail client, so the easiest way to whitelist would be to create a rule for each domain directly in Roundcube using its built-in Sieve integration to move legitimate messages out of the Spam folder. I already have several rules set up to flag and sort non-spam messages, and they're working fine. I therefore tried adding a simple rule to move Spam into the Inbox: # rule:[Not Spam] if allof (header :contains "from" "user(a)good-domain.com") { fileinto "INBOX"; } However, the above rule does not work as I expected. When I receive an email from good-domain.com that's classified as Spam by spamassassin, the global rule sends it to the Spam folder and it is not re-filed into the Inbox. The second rule doesn't seem to do anything. I'm probably doing something simple wrong, but I can't figure out what (I'm a Sieve newb). Any suggestions please? Thanks, Nick

Submission Service Copy To Sent
by Asai 09 Aug '22

09 Aug '22

Greetings, We've had a longstanding problem with emails not being copied to the Sent folder that seems to be a bug with various email clients (Thunderbird, TypeApp.) I know that Dovecot has the option to use the Submission service to copy emails to Sent without using SMTP to do this. Would this solve the problem we've seen over the years of emails not being copied to the Sent folder on various clients under certain (unknown) conditions? Thanks for your insight here. Asai

Re: how to setup dovecot to accept client certificates signed with a private CA when the server certificate is signed by a public CA

@Marc@f1-outsourcing.eu No, the private CA certificate was not present there as I thought that its presence in the bundle pointed to by <ssl_ca> was enough.

how to setup dovecot to accept client certificates signed with a private CA when the server certificate is signed by a public CA
by jean-christophe manciot 08 Aug '22

08 Aug '22

Hi everyone, I'm trying to setup dovecot to accept only client certificates created with a private CA: auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes ssl_verify_client_cert = yes ssl_ca = </etc/ssl/CA_Certificate_CRL_bundle.pem At the same time, dovecot is setup with an SSL certificate created by a public CA (let's encrypt): ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/fullchain.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/key.pem When I try to connect to the server with a client (evolution), I get a connection error: "Client did not present valid SSL certificate" except that it is valid. As you probably already know, let's encrypt does not create client certificates. It seems that using a different CA for client certificates and for the server certificate is unsupported. Am I missing something? -- Jean-Christophe

rawlog data in a lua script
by michael.zork＠feierfighter.de 08 Aug '22

08 Aug '22

Hi, I'm searching for a possibility to have the rawlog feature in lua, which would be much easier for processing. Currently Dovecot, when activating rawlog for a user, writes everything to disk (which creates I/O), and I have to somehow read it from there. That's a bit complicated, because I have to get notified via inotify or similar when there are new files created, and then I have to start a "tail" or "epoll" mechanism on the files to get the contents in more or less real time (IMAP sessions can be multiple hours or days). It would be much easier to hook to the "raw request and response events" inside Dovecot and have the rawlog-data in a lua script, where I can prepare it and send it to another maschine for monitoring/collection/analysis/statistics or similar, for example via HTTP. Having the rawlog data available in lua would make things a lot easier. Is there any possibility at the moment to create a lua script and "hook" to those "request and response events"? If not, would it be possible to add that feature in the future? Kind regards Michael

variable %w recursive expanding
by Franz Beslmeisl 02 Aug '22

02 Aug '22

In order to change the password scheme I wrote a script named updateproxy that needs the plain text password from the user. To get that I use the line password_query = SELECT username as user, password, \ '%w' as userdb_plain_pass FROM auth_user WHERE username='%n' This works nicely with almost all passwords but not with this one 1234567%&/abcd the error message being dovecot: Failed to expand plugin setting plain_pass = '1234567%&/abcd': Unknown variable '%&' It seems to me that dovecot tries to do another level of variable evaluation upon the **value** of the already evaluated variable. So I searched for ways to escape problematic characters like % and changed my line to password_query = SELECT username as user, password, \ '%E{w}' as userdb_plain_pass FROM auth_user WHERE username='%n' but this produces problems with password values containing quotes. So how can I get a plain text password containing any ascii char (or even better any utf-8 char) safely to my script?

Dovecot-lda mysql look ups.
by Simon B 02 Aug '22

02 Aug '22

Hallo again. Dovecot is not doing a look up for the MailDirLoc in the mysql database after postfix hands over the mail to dovecot-lda. Postfix knows the right location # postmap -q user(a)domain.net mysql:/etc/postfix/Mail-Mailbox.cf domain.com/user/ But apparently this has not worked as intended since I moved from courier to dovecot some years back. The minute I change /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf postfix starts spitting SASL authentication errors. How can I make Dovecot-LDA query the DB in that file for the delivery location (userdb_mail)? Grateful for any help :) Regards Simon

With creating x.y.z you really create only folder z and a folder hirarchy x.y, in which you can not store emails (nor have any access). You have to create x and x.y, in order to get complete folders and subfolders usable for emails and be able to delete them :-) Kind regards, Christian Mack -- Christian Mack Universität Konstanz Kommunikations-, Informations-, Medienzentrum (KIM) Abteilung IT-Dienste Forschung, Lehre, Infrastruktur 78457 Konstanz +49 7531 88-4416

large search indexer tasks, submitted to flatcurve+tika+tesseract backend for attachment scanning, timeout even with "fts_index_timeout = 0"; how to increase/remove timeouts?
by PGNet Dev 28 Jul '22

28 Jul '22

i'm running dovecot 2.3.19.1 search indexing is enabled, via fts_flatcurve (dovecot23_fts_flatcurve) attachment processing is via fts_tika, with tika-server-standard-2.4.2 backend & tesseract5 OCR i'm working getting this optimized on a smaller, 4-core server that opt includes capping tesseract @ single-thread, Environment=OMP_THREAD_LIMIT=1 still, some attachments are OCR-scanned, and can take some time. when i exec large reindex jobs, i get occassional timeout errors on dovecot's indexer-worker connection to tiks backend, e.g., 2022-07-23 09:54:43 indexer-worker(postmaster(a)example.com)<DIcjEWb922JhXAAA+IOfAw>: Error: fts_tika: PUT http://127.0.0.1:9998/tika/ failed: Request timed out (Request queued 61.031 secs ago, 1 send attempts in 60.103 secs, 60.080 in http ioloop, 0.000 in other ioloops, connected 60.103 secs ago) 2022-07-23 09:54:43 indexer-worker(postmaster(a)example.com)<DIcjEWb922JhXAAA+IOfAw>: Error: Mailbox Sent: Precache for UID=90782 failed: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. [2022-07-23 09:54:43] (attempted to index 2 messages between UIDs 90778..90782) i don't see any fts timeout info @ https://wiki.dovecot.org/Timeouts here https://doc.dovecot.org/settings/plugin/fts-plugin/#plugin_setting-fts-fts_… " fts_index_timeout Default: 0 Values: Unsigned integer When the full text search backend detects that the index isn’t up-to-date, the indexer is told to index the messages and is given this much time to do so. If this time limit is reached, an error is returned, indicating that the search timed out during waiting for the indexing to complete: NO [INUSE] Timeout while waiting for indexing to finish A value of 0 means no timeout. " double-checking my config, /usr/sbin/dovecot -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf -n submission_relay_connect_timeout = 10 secs submission_timeout = 10 secs there's no tika/fts timeout override, so should be "0" by default. i.e., no timeout @ Patch: enhancements for solr/tika integration https://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2022-January/123828.html a patch was proposed for similar issue with fts-solr indexer (not sure if it's in current release AND effective for my config), but that *limits* the size of attachments submitted. i _do_ want to index all/large attachments, so, iiuc, need to ensure no, or longer, timeout. where do I set that timeout to not fail, as above, on large index tasks?

test-crypto.c - Assert failed
by Tamsy 27 Jul '22

27 Jul '22

Dear List, Please pardon me if this has been already discussed before. I couldn't find the matter with a quick search. On a new standard Ubuntu 22.04 LTS installation Dovecot's "configure && make" runs through but "make check" fails. Is dovecot-2.3.19.1 not yet compatible with openSSL 3.0.2 (openssl 3.0.2-0ubuntu1.6) or is this just happening here?

How to correctly use readonly=yes with the sqlite driver?
by oddlama 24 Jul '22

24 Jul '22

Hi! I want to use a sqlite database in readonly mode, which I found mentionend in the docs [1]. Unfortunately no examples were given, so I tried to infer the usage by inspecting core/driver-sqlite.c. If I interpret it correctly, this should have worked: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext: driver = sqlite connect = readonly=yes /var/vmail/virtual.sqlite user_query = #... Unfortunately, dovecot tries to open a file named "readonly=yes /var/vmail/virtual.sqlite" instead. I have no idea why the option is not parsed. Is this a bug or am I using the feature incorrectly? Best regards, oddlama [1]: https://doc.dovecot.org/settings/plugin/sql-sqlite/

Tools to get a report of which folders have new mail?
by Steve Litt 20 Jul '22

20 Jul '22

Hi all, I use a Dovecot IMAP server on my Linux desktop computer, and I'm pretty good at writing shellscripts. Is there any way I could use doveadm or other tools to create a report that shows all my folders in a hierarchy? Also, is there a way to show only those with new mail?

Tracing Sieve actions
by Doug Hardie 20 Jul '22

20 Jul '22

I encountered an interesting problem that one originator was being dumped into the Deleted file directly by my sieve. The sieve file was quite large and it was not obvious which entry was causing the issue. I recall there was a way to get sieve-test to show what is going on and which lines it used, but I could not replicate it tonight for anything. I ended up having to change all the deliver to the Deleted files to something else and test one at a time to find the offending entry. It took a long time. How do you get sieve-test to show the actual path it took through the file? -- Doug

Interfacing mutt with Dovecott
by Steve Litt 19 Jul '22

19 Jul '22

Hi all, All my email for the past 20 years is held on a Dovecot IMAP server (version 2.3.19.1 (9b53102964)) on my desktop. I've been using Claws-Mail but want to switch to Mutt. In the past I've tried this, but Mutt was unreliable in reading folders from my local Dovecot server. It didn't see a lot of the folders. I know some people have been very successful running Mutt to access an IMAP server, so it appears to be possible. How should I run Mutt to access my Dovecot? Also, in the past I've used Claws-Mail to admin my Dovecot folders (make new folders, move folders, etc). I've heard there are one or more Dovecot provided tools to do this kind of admin. What are the names of those tools? Thanks, SteveT Steve Litt Summer 2022 featured book: Thriving in Tough Times http://www.troubleshooters.com/bookstore/thrive.htm

Deleting "folders only" folder doesn't actually delete
by Alex 19 Jul '22

19 Jul '22

Hi, I'm using dovecot-2.3.17.1-1.fc34.x86_64 on fedora34 and Thunderbird 91 on fedora35. When creating a folder of type "folders only" in Thunderbird, then trying to delete it, it doesn't actually delete it from the filesystem. Is this a permissions problem? Or perhaps a Thunderbird problem? I don't see any messages in the logs that would indicate some type of failed attempt to delete. How do I troubleshoot this? Thanks, Alex

dovecot 2.3.19.1 + tika-server 2.4.1 failed attachment scanning -- ERROR: 'corrupt stream'?
by PGNet Dev 15 Jul '22

15 Jul '22

i'm running dovecot 2.3.19.1 + fts_tika for attachment scanning, with tika-server 2.4.1 submitting a PDF attachment DIRECTLY to tika, via curl, there's no issue -- scan's OK on mail receipt in dovecot, the attachment is submitted to tika via fts, but scanning fails with a 'corrupt stream' ERROR. i've posted the issue, with details here, @ tika ML, https://lists.apache.org/thread/pztsq8tb8xqz3s4kmjpnt9p3zt07y05k where it's suggested the message may be getting truncated since direct-via-curl doesn't truncate, it seems that the submission process -- via fts plugin -- is a possiblity. can anyone confirm PDF attachment scan in a similar config, with latest versions? or suggest what diagnostic to use to dig for further, relevant troubleshooting info in dovecot+fts?

Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer : Timeout waiting for handshake response
by filipe＠digirati.com.br 15 Jul '22

Hi, I'm using ubuntu 22.04 and installed dovecot 2.3.16. I did some initial testing with 100 email accounts and everything seemed to work perfectly the same as dovecot version 2.3.16 on another server. So I performed the migration of approximately 30 thousand email accounts, but the following error started to appear and I know well what to do: Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: pop3: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: imap: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: managesieve: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: lmtp: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: imap-login: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: imap: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: imap-login: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: message repeated 3 times: [ imap-login: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response] Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: imap: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response Jul 14 18:55:29 box5 dovecot: message repeated 2 times: [ imap: Error: conn unix:/run/dovecot/stats-writer (pid=3733995,uid=0): Timeout waiting for handshake response] Permissions on files 79411 srw------- 1 root root 0 Jul 14 18:55 stats-reader 79412 srw-rw---- 1 root dovecot 0 Jul 14 18:55 stats-writer Does anyone know anything about this problem that can help me?

Is multi factor authentication practical/feasible?
by Steve Dondley 14 Jul '22

14 Jul '22

I have a small client whose insurance company insists they have MFA for their email to be covered under some kind of data protection policy. Currently I have the client set up on a Debian box for the email server coupled with roundcube for webmail. Most the users just use roundcube but some also use their mobile devices to check email. Maybe one person uses outlook. There’s about 5 to 10 users total. I know roundcube offers a MFA plugin. But I don’t have the foggiest idea how of an iPhone, Android device, or Outlook could all be set up to work with MFA with a standard dovecot/postfix setup. Are there any practical solutions for easily implementing MFA that could work across multiple devices?

Thunderbird / Copy to Send folder times out
by Paul Kudla (SCOM.CA Internet Services Inc.) 14 Jul '22

14 Jul '22

I know this has been asked before in both Dovecot & Thunderbird Forums (i will posting this info there as well) It seems every once in a while that copy to sent folder timeout occurs and you have to hit retry a few time for it to complete I know this is a network issue (ie network speed, congestion etc does cause an issue) That being said is there an imap timeout variable that would addres this issue and or does anyone know about a thunderbird variable I have been unable to locate anything specific to this issue and am aware that we probably need to patch both sides? ideas anyone ?? -- Happy Thursday !!!

Having an issue migrating mailboxes with the doveadm backup tool...
by Tom Spettigue 14 Jul '22

14 Jul '22

Hey all. We've got some users that live on our primary email server (which lives in our internal network) that we need to migrate to a second email server (which lives in our DMZ). Both servers serve our domain, example.com, but our first email server runs UW-IMAP, while our newer second server is running dovecot. We need to get these users cleanly migrated over, with all of their emails, and we're trying to do so with the doveadm backup tool - figuring that it will probably "do" Dovecot better than a generic IMAP to IMAP tool. So far, no dice - we get the following error message: Jul 13 16:00:00 doveadm(user(a)example.com): Fatal: All your namespaces have a location setting. Only namespaces with empty location settings are converted. (One namespace should default to mail_location setting) Here is the command I'm trying to run: doveadm -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot-migration.conf -D -o imapc_user=user -o imapc_password=password backup -Ru user(a)example.com imapc: Here is the output of doveconf -n: # 2.3.16 (7e2e900c1a): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 4.18.0-372.16.1.el8_6.x86_64 x86_64 AlmaLinux release 8.6 (Sky Tiger) # Hostname: example.com auth_mechanisms = plain login auth_verbose = yes disable_plaintext_auth = no info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-info.log log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log mail_debug = yes mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } postmaster_address = postmaster(a)example.com protocols = imap lmtp service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } } service lmtp { executable = lmtp -L inet_listener lmtp { address = 1.2.3.4 127.0.0.1 ::1 port = 24 } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } user = vmail } ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem ssl_dh = # hidden, use -P to show it ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it ssl_prefer_server_ciphers = yes userdb { args = username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/passwd auth_verbose = yes default_fields = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/vmail/%u driver = passwd-file } protocol lmtp { lmtp_rawlog_dir = /tmp/dovecot/%u log_path = /var/log/dovecot-lmtp-debug.log } -- Tom Spettigue Staff Engineer (720) 406-5269 Zonit Structured Solutions www.zonit.com

Re: Deleting "folders only" folder doesn't actually delete
by Joseph Tam 13 Jul '22

13 Jul '22

> I'm using dovecot-2.3.17.1-1.fc34.x86_64 on fedora34 and Thunderbird 91 on fedora35. When creating a folder of type "folders only" in Thunderbird, then trying to delete it, it doesn't actually delete it from the filesystem. Is this a permissions problem? Or perhaps a Thunderbird problem? Are you using MBOX backend? I think I ran across this problem and it's some confusion as to whether the target is a file or directory. I was finally able to delete it by appending '/' to the name of the folder in my mail reader, but some mail readers do not allow you to type the mailbox name to delete. I believe Tbunderbird has some IMAP server setting that will give it a hint. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

dsync confusion
by dovecot＠chubb.wattle.id.au 12 Jul '22

12 Jul '22

Hi Folks, The man page for doveadm-sync says that the final argument is the destination to which files will be written. But the example later in the man page says the opposite. Under 'Conversion' I read: ``` Assuming that the mail_location setting in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf is set to: mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox, a logged in system user may convert her/his mails from its Maildir in her/his home directory to the mdbox mailbox format. The user has to execute the command: doveadm sync maildir:~/Maildir ``` which has the destination in /etc/dovecot/conf.d and the _source_ as the final argument to doveadm sync. It seems on trying it, that the example doesn't work. To convert from, say mbox to Maildir, I had to do: doveadm backup 'maildir:~/Maildir:LAYOUT=fs' with /etc/dovecot containing mail_location = mbox:~/Mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/indices/%u Even this didn't work properly for me. All the messages from all the mboxen in ~/Mail ended up in ~/Maildir/cur and the other mailboxes ended up with empty cur/ and new/ directories under ~/Maildir/xxx/ Dovecot version 2.3.19.1 (9b53102964) installed from Debian sid on x86_64. Home directories are NFS mounted. I don't think the rest of the config is relevant. -- Peter Chubb

Trouble configuring managesive plugin for roundcube

Hello all! I’ve got a bit of a problem that I would like some help with. So, I have two servers, one is my mail server running postfix, dovecot etc. I have a second server setup as my roundcube server. Both servers are running on the same LAN network. I have sieve scripts setup in dovecot in my mail server and they are working great! My trouble is that I can’t seem to make my roundcube talk correctly to managesieve on my mail server.

CVE-2022-30550: Privilege escalation possible in dovecot when similar master and non-master passdbs are used
by Aki Tuomi 10 Jul '22

10 Jul '22

Affected product: Dovecot IMAP Server Internal reference: DOV-5320 Vulnerability type: Improper Access Control (CWE-284) Vulnerable version: 2.2 Vulnerable component: submission Report confidence: Confirmed Solution status: Fixed in main Researcher credits: Julian Brook (julezman) Vendor notification: 2022-05-06 CVE reference: CVE-2022-30550 CVSS: 6.8 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N) Vulnerability Details: When two passdb configuration entries exist in Dovecot configuration, which have the same driver and args settings, the incorrect username_filter and mechanism settings can be applied to passdb definitions. These incorrectly applied settings can lead to an unintended security configuration and can permit privilege escalation with certain configurations involving master user authentication. Dovecot documentation does not advise against the use of passdb definitions which have the same driver and args settings. One such configuration would be where an administrator wishes to use the same pam configuration or passwd file for both normal and master users but use the username_filter setting to restrict which of the users is able to be a master user. Risk: If same passwd file or PAM is used for both normal and master users, it is possible for attacker to become master user. Workaround: Always authenticate master users from different source than regular users, e.g. using a separate passwd file. Alternatively, you can use global ACLs to ensure that only legimate master users have priviledged access. Fix: This has been fixed in main branch. See https://github.com/dovecot/core/compare/7bad6a24%5E..a1022072.patch
