Hibernation disabled when mailbox selected
by Joseph Tam 20 Oct '15

20 Oct '15

After setting imap_hibernate_timeout to 60s, I could not find any hibernated connections after a few hours. I tested hibernation and made an observation: IDLE'd imap sessions only hibernate if they don't have a mailbox SELECT'd, otherwise they never hibernate. Is this the way it's supposed to work?

TLS communication director -> backend with X.509 cert checks?
by Heiko Schlittermann 19 Oct '15

19 Oct '15

Hello, using Dovecot 2.2.9 and a setup with directors and backends. The communication between directors and backends needs to be TLS secured. The director config contains a list of hostnames for the backends. (implicit list because of multiple A/AAAA records for a single hostname or explicit list of several host names) On connection setup from a client the director connects to the selected backend. But it seems (not checked in the source yet), that for SSL certificate verification the director doesn't know the original host name anymore. The certificate's CN gets compared to the IP address the director connects to. Oct 12 23:56:51 director2 dovecot: director: Error: director(2001:683:921:f33::5:1:9090/out): connect() failed: Connection reset by peer Oct 12 23:57:53 director2 dovecot: imap-login: Error: proxy: hostname doesn't match SSL certificate at 2001:683:921:f33::5:fe:993: user=<foo>, method=PLAIN, rip=2001:638:912:f33::1:1, lip=2001:638:912:f33::5:2, TLS, session=<fLrUa+8hggAgAQY4CRIPMwAAAAAAAQAB> In 10-directors.conf I've: director_mail_servers = backend1.<domain> backend2.<domain> Should I create certificates with IP address in SAN? (Any hint about the correct syntax for the openssl.conf is welcome). Or is there any chance that this is fixed already or will be fixed in the near future or even better, that it's my fault?

(wherry often i see this point is active on status for all my mail accounts) * Waiting 'failed' requests - i now what is it! * Total number of known users - i now what is it! 5. can dovecot create replication in real-time????

Doveadm client/server possible?
by Leon Kyneur 19 Oct '15

19 Oct '15

Hi As my mail infrastructure grows I'm now looking at the possibility of running all my doveadm commands from a central location. Wondering if there is a way to configure an inet_listener on doveadm and have a client elsewhere connect to it? Have seen the inet_listener for replication but not sure if it can also be used for general client server communication. Thanks Leon

Order in which UIDs are assigned..
by Akash 17 Oct '15

17 Oct '15

Hi, I just want some clarification on how Dovecot's IMAP assigns UIDs when it picks files from the "new" directory of a Maildir. What I am observing is that only ctime has a role to play in it. For example if there are two files in "new", a.msg & z.msg. Even when a.msg has lower mtime than z.msg and "a" comes before "z" alphabetically, dovecot will assign z.msg a lower UID if its ctime is lower than a.msg. Is this correct? Secondly, when mails are placed into Maildir through a external mechanism by-passing LDA, by any means is it possible for IMAP to run seive on it when it migrates the files from new to cur and indexes them? I understand that this might not be a valid question as mail is delivered already so there is nothing to filter :-) -Akash

doveadm-search-query pattern format
by Frank-Ulrich Sommer 17 Oct '15

17 Oct '15

Hello, the doveadm-search-query documentation specifies a 'pattern' for many search keys. Unfortunately it does not mention the format specification of this pattern (special characters, wildcards, ...). I'm using dovecot 2.2.9 but also searched the current documention on dovecot.org. Where can I find further documentation concerning the exact specification of the pattern format?

hi everyone need a few questions answering if possible before i can complete some modifications on my mailserver 1 how do i modify my user_query line in dovecot-sql.conf for quotas 2 is my iterate_query line ok 3 should i use lmtp or lda to deliver the quota warnings in quota-warning.sh my server is using lmtp but i've only seen examples using lda 4 how do i break long lines in dovecot.conf, is it the same as postgresql where you leave a space on the next line before continuing the txt. i would like to break the cipher line in dovecot.conf over multiple lines 5 have i configured my namespace section correctly so that i can substitute for the autocreate plugin also could you give the files a quick look over to make sure there isn't any unnecessary additions that shouldn't be there or omissions that should be there thanks shadrock ============ /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf disable_plaintext_auth = no mail_privileged_group = vmail log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log auth_debug_passwords=yes mail_debug=yes verbose_ssl=yes ssl_prefer_server_ciphers = yes ssl_dh_parameters_length = 2048 ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/postfix.crt ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/postfix.key ssl_ca = </etc/ssl/ca.crt ssl_protocols = !SSLv2 !SSLv3 ssl_cipher_list = ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-DSS-AES128-GCM-SHA256:kEDH+AESGCM:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA:DHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES128-SHA:DHE-DSS-AES128-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA256:DHE-DSS-AES256-SHA:DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:AES128-GCM-SHA256:AES256-GCM-SHA384:AES128-SHA256:AES256-SHA256:AES128-SHA:AES256-SHA:AES:CAMELLIA:DES-CBC3-SHA:!aNULL:!eNULL:!EXPORT:!DES:!RC4:!MD5:!PSK:!aECDH: auth_mechanisms = plain login passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } userdb { driver = prefetch } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } #namespace inbox { # separator = / # type = private # inbox = yes # location = maildir:/home/mailboxes/Maildir # list = yes # prefix = INBOX. #mailbox Drafts { # auto = subscribe # special_use = \Drafts #} #mailbox Junk { # auto = subscribe # special_use = \Junk #} #mailbox Sent { # auto = subscribe # special_use = \Sent #} #mailbox Trash { # auto = subscribe # special_use = \Trash #} #} mail_plugins = quota # protocols = "pop3 imap lmtp" protocols = pop3 imap lmtp sieve plugin { autocreate = Trash autocreate2 = Sent autosubscribe = Trash autosubscribe2 = Sent sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_global_path = /etc/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve sieve_global_dir = /etc/dovecot/sieve/global/ quota = dict:User quota::proxy::quotadict quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+10%% quota_warning = storage=100%% quota-warning +100 %u quota_warning2 = storage=95%% quota-warning +95 %u quota_warning3 = storage=80%% quota-warning +80 %u quota_warning4 = -storage=100%% quota-warning -100 %u # user is no longer over quota } service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } } service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } service managesieve { } service dict { unix_listener dict { group = vmail mode = 0660 user = vmail } user = root } service quota-warning { executable = script /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh user = vmail unix_listener quota-warning { group = vmail mode = 0660 user = vmail } } protocol imap { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins autocreate imap_quota } protocol sieve { managesieve_max_line_length = 65536 managesieve_implementation_string = dovecot log_path = /var/log/dovecot-sieve-errors.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-sieve.log } protocol lmtp { postmaster_address=postmaster(a)thisdomain.co.uk hostname=testy.thisdomain.co.uk mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve quota info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-lmtp.log } dict { quotadict = pgsql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = quota pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } --(postgresql stuff)-- CREATE DATABASE mail WITH OWNER mailreader;

Strange indexing behavior on HTML emails ..
by Akash 16 Oct '15

16 Oct '15

Hi, In continuation to the issue I had posted about long back: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-August/097362.html I did further testing today on a fresh new Debian & latest Dovecot and observed a undesired behavior. I am using fts_lucene & following sequence of commands on a empty test account me(a)myself.com: doveadm expunge -u 'my(a)myself.com' mailbox 'INBOX' all cat test.eml | /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -e -f you(a)yourself.com -d me(a)myself.com doveadm search -u 'akash(a)mailjol.in' mailbox 'INBOX' text ABCD Search command does or doesn't find the email with slight variation in the content of test.eml. Here are the results: test.eml content: ----------------------------- From: you(a)yourself.com To: me(a)myself.com Subject: Test Message Content-Type: text/html <div id="mydiv">ABCD 1234</div> ----------------------------- RESULT: OK. The email is found. test.eml content (double quotes inside div tag replaced with single): ----------------------------- From: you(a)yourself.com To: me(a)myself.com Subject: Test Message Content-Type: text/html <div id='mydiv'>ABCD 1234</div> ----------------------------- RESULT: None. The email isn't found. test.eml content (single quotes in div but content/type header removed): ----------------------------- From: you(a)yourself.com To: me(a)myself.com Subject: Test Message <div id='mydiv'>ABCD 1234</div> ----------------------------- RESULT: OK. The email is found. What could be the reason for this? -Akash

Dovecot top stats
by Kilburn Abrahams 15 Oct '15

15 Oct '15

Hi, I have being try to track down top email users to sometime. When I do a network traffic check I can see there is about 15 times more email traffic pulled from mail server than sent. The problem I am trying to track down is which users are the culprit. I have enabled doevcot stats and I can do a doveadm stats dump user but I get a 0 for disk_input, disk_output, read_bytes and write_bytes. I do get mail_read_bytes numbers but I am not sure these numbers are correct. I there a top utility that works well so I can see email traffic from users mailboxes. The doveadm top does not work well. I also tried the perl scripts and that does not do a much better job. Thanks Kilburn

What do you mean by "iterate"? If you mean whether you can look up a password entry in a multi-entry file, then yes, definitely. If you mean to sequentially go through it and do a first/last/best match, probably not. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

Emails with sender MISSING_MAILBOX@missing_domain
by grupo correo 15 Oct '15

15 Oct '15

Hello, we are working in the migration from courier-imap to dovecot 2.2.10-4.el7_0.1.x86_64. Some emails that send a internal application show as sender "MISSING_MAILBOX@missing_domain", i use like email client Horde using dovecot like server. But if i open that email with Horde and courier-imap i can see the correct email sender. I think that the email of the sender is no correct or not accomplish some RFC. Can anyone help me to understand this? Thank you

Thanks for Dovecot

Hi all, Thanks for making Dovecot. I just transitioned from Debian Wheezy to Void Linux. It was fairly easy to get Dovecot working on my Void box, and having Dovecot makes all of my email activities easier by doing one thing and doing it right. Thank you for such great software. SteveT

Hi, Mailing list archives suggest that this problem has been fixed in the older versions itself but I am getting the error still while trying to doveadm index a large folder of emails. Sometimes it throws error after 30000, something 40000, the latest it gave up after 111000. But it just never completes. 111000/322080doveadm: /home/stephan/packages/wheezy/i386/clucene-core-2.3.3.4/src/core/CLucene/index/DocumentsWriter.cpp:210: std::string lucene::index::DocumentsWriter::closeDocStore(): Assertion `numDocsInStore*8 == directory->fileLength( (docStoreSegment + "." + IndexFileNames::FIELDS_INDEX_EXTENSION).c_str() )' failed. Aborted I am using dovecot 2:2.2.19-1~auto+7& libclucene-core1:i386 2.3.3.4-4 from debian wheezy backports. Please advice. -Akash

Yes, you can use -A and iterate through users, subject to any constraints such as first_valid_uid, last_valid_uid, etc. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>
