Hiya all, I'm seeing this "Fatal: nfs flush requires mail_fsync=always" error on my testbed. The issue is that from what I can see, mail_fsync is set to always : # doveconf -n | grep mail_fs mail_fsync = always The result is that the client does not connect at all, which is not really what I wanted to happen :) Any idea what is going wrong here?

Replication configuration
by Mantas Gegužis 17 Jan '18

17 Jan '18

Hello, I am trying to configure replication between two servers, for only specified virtual users, without success of course :) I am using LDAP for accounting. I have tried to pass a file with list like this: replication_dsync_parameters = -d -N -l 30 -U -F /etc/dovecot/list I have even tried to specify users with LDAP filter: iterate_filter = (|(uid=user1)(uid=user2)) both without success... But replicator every 5 minutes tries to replicate all users. I want this mainly for testing (i am preparing to server migration) and for bigger control who and when will be replicated/transferred.

Submission/SMTP proxy server
by Daniel Miller 16 Jan '18

16 Jan '18

Sorry if this seems elementary - but a question on implementation/usage/purpose of this. My understanding is at this time the SMTP proxy server is only that - it does not implement any further functionality. So its availability now is purely for testing purposes. Is that accurate? I secondly assume that this intended for trusted clients only - so this is not intended for processing email submitted via port 25. And thirdly - if a separate firewall/anti-spam/virus/authentication service is run outside of the MTA (like ASSP) then the Dovecot proxy should be inserted between that and the final MTA? -- Daniel

(if backend is connected via IPv6) doveadm_tcp_connect_port tried a net_gethostbyname with "ipv6addr:542" as hostname. I've attached a quick-and-dirty-patch (for 2.2.33.2) that fixes this (at least for me). Regards, Andreas -- ! Andreas Jobs Network Operation Center ! ! Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum ! !

Duplicate mail id issue, mailbox does not exist when dovecot tries to generate a new guid so replication can take place
by Daniel Botting 15 Jan '18

15 Jan '18

Hi all, When we run the below one user constantly shows as failed (dovecot version is 2.2.13): sudo doveadm replicator status "*" mail.log shows the below for the user: Jan 3 16:20:57 hostname dovecot: dsync-server(user): Error: Duplicate mailbox GUID <guid number> for mailboxes <mailbox name.sub folder> and <mailbox name.sub folder> - giving a new GUID <guid number> to <mailbox name.subfolder> Jan 3 16:20:57 hostname dovecot: dsync-server(user): Error: Couldn't update mailbox <sub folder name> GUID: Mailbox doesn't exist: <sub folder name> Looking at their mailbox the folder does exist. Has anybody seen this before and would be aware of the way to resolve? Kind regards Daniel Botting Codethink Ltd

Non-destructive deduplication
by Tristan Miller 15 Jan '18

15 Jan '18

Greetings. I use Dovecot 2.2.29.1 as my IMAP server. Owing to a bug in my mail client [1], several unique messages (mostly in my Sent folder) have duplicate Message-ID headers. Dovecot itself doesn't seem to be bothered by this, though my mail client is confused by the false duplicates. (It screws up the threading display, and results in data loss when I run the client's deduplication filter.) I would like to change the Message-ID headers in the "duplicate" message files stored in my IMAP server so that they are unique. I realize that this has disadvantages of its own, but I can't think of a better alternative. So this leads me to two questions: 1) Will Dovecot get confused if I simply open the message files in a text editor and manually change their Message-ID headers? If so, how should I go about changing the Message-ID headers? 2) Does there exist any tool that will scan a maildir folder to find messages with duplicate Message-IDs, and automatically rewrite the Message-ID headers so that they are (probably) unique? I could probably kludge together a quick shell script, but if someone's already gone to the trouble of writing such a tool and making it relatively robust, I'd rather use that instead.

Yeah, that would be cool. For an existing installation, though, an admin might have merge all existing mailboxes into the one actual mailbox to keep the confusion down.

Mailbox from virtual mailbox in other namespace
by Jakob Schürz 15 Jan '18

15 Jan '18

Hi there! I have more namespaces. One for subscription, another one "inbox", then one for the archiv and a shared and a public namespace. And than is there a namespace for virtual mailboxes. In the namespace for virtual mailboxes is one mailbox wich gives me all emails in the archiv namespace #cat dovecot-virtual Archiv/* all The namespace is normally hidden, but for debugging i make it visible. doveadm search -u jakob mailbox Real/Archiv all lists all the emails. So i want to integrate this virtual mailbox in another namespace. The namespace is Archiv namespace Archiv { ... ... ... mailbox Real/Archiv { auto = subscription } ... ... } doveadm mailbox list -u jakob gives Archiv/Real/Archiv But doveadm search -u jakob mailbox Archiv/Real/Archiv all gives no result. What's wrong? jakob

Client Identification
by spaceman 12 Jan '18

12 Jan '18

I have two seperate clients (using fetchmail) on two seperate machines that use the same login and the same ip address as each other fetching their mail over IMAP using IMAP idle. Naturally Dovecot assumes that they are the same machine but they are not so messages only get downloaded to one of the machines rather than both which is what I want. How do I get Dovecot to recognize them as two individual clients so that mail downloads to both of them? Regards, spaceman

login failure "reason" not returned (dovecot-2.2.32)
by Pedro Ribeiro 11 Jan '18

11 Jan '18

Hello, In the past (older dovecot versions) I've tuned the SQL "password_query" of our mail server so that when the user has the account blocked for some reason (expired, need password change, etc.) the query returns nologin=1 and a verbose reason like reason="Your account is expired please change the password" and it worked very well with IMAP clients. I'm now seeing that despite the message returned by the SQL, the IMAP server always returns a generic error "NO [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Authentication failed." I've setup an "always fail" query in a test installation (see below) and with that, a simple openssl/telnet login simulation fails without reporting the "ERRORDEBUG" reason. > password_query = SELECT '%n' AS username, '%d' AS domain, 'ERRORDEBUG' > AS reason, '1' AS nologin, CONCAT('{PLAIN}',RAND()) AS password; Tested with: > imapsrv# openssl s_client -connect imap2:993 > --- > * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE > IDLE AUTH=PLAIN] IPLNet IMAP ready. > a login "someouser@dom" "password" > a NO [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Authentication failed. Also using doveadm auth: > imapsrv# doveadm auth test someuser@dom > Password: > passdb: someuser@dom auth failed > extra fields: > user=someuser@dom I've already done some source digging without conclusions, the code to return the reason seem to be in place in the function "imap_client_auth_result" at src/imap-login/client-authenticate.c What am I doing wrong?

Got this for UID FETCH, UID SEARCH, UID SORT, ... The size of the file dovecot.index.cache of INBOX was in the last seen problem situations between 1.1GB to 2.3GB. To solve the problem the last times was to reduce the amount of mails to under 1.7 million (seems to be the limit to trigger the problem), delete the index cache and let him rebuild with a controled request. But this is a odd situation (because it confused 3rd party tooling, which access this mailbox) and i cannot find any helpful informations to solve this problem. Sharding it into several folders to keep the amount of mails in INBOX small is not an option currently. If further informations are needed, just let me know. Thanks for any help! Kind regards Stefan

Hi, I am trying to get sieve working on a new OpenSuse leap 42.2 install. On my 'old' OpenSuse 13.2 machine it worked fine.

Ignored mount points forgotten on reboot
by Kenneth Porter 11 Jan '18

11 Jan '18

<https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Mountpoints> The list of ignored mount points are stored in a directory (/var/run) that's cleared on reboot. (On CentOS it's a RAM disk.) It seems this should be stored in /etc/dovecot to remain persistent across reboots. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard> I discovered this when I saw a dovecot error message in /var/log/maillog that some of my automounts (that don't contain mail directories) were missing. Latest dovecot from this distro is dovecot-2.2.10-8.el7.x86_64. Does the new release fix this? (I haven't seen any real problems from it, just log noise.)

Can Dovecot reject unencrypted mail?
by David Seaward 10 Jan '18

10 Jan '18

Hi, Is it possible to configure Dovecot to reject mail that is not encrypted. In other words: 1. If the user tries to send an unencrypted message from their MUA, the server rejects it. 2. If a third-party tries to send an unencrypted message to the user, the server rejects it. The end result would be that no mail stored on the server can be decrypted by the administrator. I am aware that: * "Encrypted" could mean a lot of things. I'm imagining GPG encryption, but am open to other supported methods. * This configuration would not suit everyone, e.g. someone posting to a public mailing list :) Regards, David
