[Dovecot] [LMTP] sieve filter does not drop privilleges?
by kjonca＠o2.pl 25 Mar '14

25 Mar '14

I have (user) sieve filter in my home dir. This filter uses "vnd.dovecot.filter" extension to call some shell scripts. These scrips creates some temporary files. Strange thing: whent sieve is called via dovecot-lda - these files are created by user "kjonca" when sieve is called via lmtp - these files are created by root. Is there any way to drop privilleges where lmtp passing messages to sieve? KJ -- http://wolnelektury.pl/wesprzyj/teraz/

[Dovecot] Dovecot mail-filter cannot work with large email about 700k
by boyd yang 25 Mar '14

25 Mar '14

Hi All I configured dovecot 2.1.7 with mail-filter plugin. It works well for small emails like server k big.(7k) But it failed with larger emails about 700k. The scripts hang out, and the mail-filter-out process does not exist and always in ps. It does not work even I use "cat" in mail-filter-out.sh. Where to set the size limit for mail-filter? Do you know how to fix this? This bug also exists in 2.2.12. Thanks!

[Dovecot] Weird Authentication behaviour
by Jürgen Ladstätter 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

Hi guys, we use dovecot 2.0.9 and authentication against a mysql database. Everything works fine, but we found some weird behavior when the password is e.g. testpass you also authenticate successfully with testpass123 or testpassNOT. Whatever comes after the correct password doesnt matter, the authentication is still successful. Here are the used configs: // auth-sql.conf.ext passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext } userdb { driver = static args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/data/mail/%d/%n } // dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = mysql connect = host=[IP] dbname=[DB] user=[USER] password=[PASS] default_pass_scheme = CRYPT password_query = SELECT `password`, `login` AS `user` FROM `v_email_accounts` WHERE `login`='%u' // 10-auth.conf disable_plaintext_auth = no auth_mechanisms = plain !include auth-sql.conf.ext // 10-master.conf default_process_limit = 1000 default_client_limit = 3003 default_vsz_limit = 1024M service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } service_count = 0 vsz_limit = 1024M } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 110 } inet_listener pop3s { port = 995 ssl = yes } } service lmtp { unix_listener lmtp { } } service imap { vsz_limit = 1024M process_limit = 2048 } service pop3 { process_limit = 2048 } service auth { unix_listener auth-userdb { user = vmail group = vmail } client_limit = 8096 } service auth-worker { } service dict { unix_listener dict { } } Thanks in advance for your help!

[Dovecot] imap: Error: mmap() failed with file ... dovecot.index.cache: Cannot allocate memory
by Urban Loesch 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

Hi, since some days (about 10) I get the following error in mail error log many, many times: ... dovecot: imap(user(a)domain.com pid:32769 session:<dszL7lX1xADD/uGI>): Error: mmap() failed with file /home/dovecotindex/domain.com/user/mailboxes/Trash /dovecot.index.cache: Cannot allocate memory .... It's always the same "dovecot.index.cache" file and only for the same heavily used account. The account is currently used from about 10 different clients with imap at the sime time. I checked the size of the index cache file and it seems very big: total 2,7G -rw------- 1 mailstore mailstore 464 Mär 24 14:36 dovecot.index -rw------- 1 mailstore mailstore 464 Mär 24 14:36 dovecot.index.backup -rw------- 1 mailstore mailstore 2,7G Mär 24 14:19 dovecot.index.cache -rw------- 1 mailstore mailstore 140 Mär 24 14:45 dovecot.index.log -rw------- 1 mailstore mailstore 89K Mär 24 14:36 dovecot.index.log.2 About 2,7 GB? To solve the problem temporarily, I removed the index files from the index Trash folder and Dovecot initialized an index rebuild. Now the size of the index files are small: total 28K -rw------- 1 mailstore mailstore 512 Mär 24 14:47 dovecot.index -rw------- 1 mailstore mailstore 20K Mär 24 15:28 dovecot.index.cache -rw------- 1 mailstore mailstore 1,2K Mär 24 15:28 dovecot.index.log But why could the index cache file be so big? Many thanks Urban

[Dovecot] Dovecot/Django authentication
by Thomas Johnson 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

We've got an application in django that has passwords stored in both sha1 and pbkdf2_sha256 form. We need dovecot to be able to authenticate against the django database (we can't modify django to store passwords in dovecot's form, I'm afraid). Has anyone done a dovecot authentication plugin to support these password forms (and/or any other forms that django supports)? Thanks- Tom

[Dovecot] Case-sensitive INBOX or client issue?
by SB Code Ninja 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

I am using dovecot as an IMAP server for a Cisco product (Cisco Agent Desktop by Calabrio) and noticed some odd behavior when trying to access emails. The mail is delivered to the main INBOX, then a Cisco server moves it to a directory within the INBOX based on the queue it is meant for. Here is the directory structure of the Maildir: Maildir/INBOX Maildir/INBOX/tmp Maildir/INBOX/63 Maildir/INBOX/63/tmp Maildir/INBOX/63/dovecot.index.cache Maildir/INBOX/63/cur Maildir/INBOX/63/cur/1395445673.M548066P32100.uc-util,S=6403:2, Maildir/INBOX/63/dovecot.index.log Maildir/INBOX/63/dovecot-uidlist Maildir/INBOX/63/maildirfolder Maildir/INBOX/63/new Maildir/INBOX/dovecot.index.cache Maildir/INBOX/cur Maildir/INBOX/dovecot.index.log Maildir/INBOX/dovecot-uidlist Maildir/INBOX/62 Maildir/INBOX/62/tmp Maildir/INBOX/62/dovecot.index.cache Maildir/INBOX/62/cur Maildir/INBOX/62/cur/1395445491.M591207P32114.uc-util,S=6380:2, Maildir/INBOX/62/dovecot.index.log Maildir/INBOX/62/dovecot-uidlist Maildir/INBOX/62/maildirfolder Maildir/INBOX/62/new Maildir/INBOX/new Email is delivered to INBOX then gets moved to INBOX/62 or INBOX/63. The desktop software is then supposed to read the email and process it. I did a packet capture of the conversation and saw the following: IMAP Response: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready. IMAP Request: A0 AUTHENTICATE PLAIN IMAP Response: + IMAP Request: <redacted> IMAP Response: A0 OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS MULTIAPPEND UNSELECT IDLE CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS] Logged in IMAP Request: A1 LIST "" Inbox/63 IMAP Response: A1 OK List completed. IMAP Request: A2 CREATE Inbox/63 IMAP Response: A2 NO [ALREADYEXISTS] Mailbox exists. If I login manually and do 'LIST "" INBOX/63' it works fine, but not with "Inbox/63". I was under the impression that INBOX was not case-sensitive. Is this a bug or is the client doing something silly?

[Dovecot] dsync in a cronjob to replace offlineimap
by Guilhem Moulin 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

Hi list, Replacing offlineimap with dsync for IMAP-to-IMAP synchronization (using dovecot 2.1.7) is working great, but now that I upgraded to 2.2.9 I'd like to take advantage of the incremental replication [1]. I don't think having a separate replicator process & notifications suits my configuration, as I want to sync my server with my laptop which is not always on or might be behind a firewall. After reading ‘replication/replicator/dsync-client.c’ I was thinking of writing a small wrapper around dsync performing a daily full replication and updating the state otherwise. The following works great in a cronjob doveadm sync -l30 imap.example.org but when I try to get the current state doveadm sync -l30 -fs '' imap.example.org >~/mail/dsync.state and later use incremental replication state=$(< ~/mail/dsync.state) doveadm sync -l30 -s "$state" imap.example.org >~/mail/dsync.state the state seems to somehow quickly become "stale" and messages stop being retrieved from the server. I understand that dsync's incremental replication is mostly intended to be used by the replicator process, but I'm wondering whether it's also possible to use it manually ;-) If so, how to keep a sane state? Thanks, cheers, -- Guilhem. [1] http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication

[Dovecot] Where can I find a stable PPA?

Hello, As the subject says, where can I find a stable PPA of Dovecot v2.2 for Ubuntu 12.04? I found this <https://launchpad.net/~kokelnet/+archive/dovecot22>, but the description says, "...I declare them as unstable." For obvious reasons, I don't want to use this. What should I do? Thanks, Daniel

[Dovecot] Debian Wheezy Dovecot Replication no updates on message deposit
by Milan Cvetkovic 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hi, I am trying to setup dovecot replication based on: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Replication http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2013-January/087674.html I know that 2.1.7 is dated, but I would refrain from upgrading, if not necessary. The problem I have is pretty much same as the one described in http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2013-January/087674.html: I have vmail user on both systems, setup with ssh public key logins with empty passphrase. Apparently, dsync happens only on periodic updates. If a message is deposited on one server, it will only propagate to the other once a while. Thanks, Milan. Here is doveconf -n output: # 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 7.4 auth_mechanisms = plain login mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_plugins = " notify replication" managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { mail_replica = remote:vmail@192.168.108.138 sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = " imap sieve pop3" replication_full_sync_interval = 1 hours service aggregator { fifo_listener replication-notify-fifo { user = vmail } unix_listener replication-notify { user = vmail } } service auth { unix_listener auth-client { mode = 0660 user = Debian-exim } } service config { unix_listener config { user = vmail } } service doveadm { user = vmail } service replicator { process_min_avail = 1 unix_listener replicator-doveadm { mode = 0600 } } ssl_cert = </etc/exim4/exim.crt ssl_key = </etc/exim4/exim.key userdb { driver = prefetch } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } protocol lda { mail_plugins = " sieve" }

[Dovecot] Dovecot + roundcube -- Password Change
by Vijay Rajah 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hello, I'm using Postfix + Dovecot (2.2.6) + roundcube 0.8.x + mysql. The roundcube webserver is hosted on a different server than the Dovecot. The dovecot itself is a replicated 2 node configuration. I would like to allow users to change the password from roundcube interface. All the examples I have seen, assume that roundcube runs in the same server as dovecot. Is there an example / documentation to enable this to work, applying reasonable security measures. -Thanks Vijay

[Dovecot] Password hashing issue
by Daniel Reynolds 20 Mar '14

20 Mar '14

Hello, First off, thanks in advance for all of your help. Now to my issue: I am setting up my first email server. It will be for just me and a few other people. I am using an Amazon EC2 server running Ubuntu 12.04. My MTA is postfix. As I said, this is my first time setting up an email server, so I am following a guide that Arstechnia has published (link<http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/03/taking-e-mail-back-pa…> ). My issue comes when I try to create a hashed of my passwords. I have tried entering the command, "doveadm pw -s SSHA512". When I do this, I get the error message, "doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/99-mail-stack-delivery.conf line 6: Unknown setting: ssl_client_ca_dir". I have tried running that command with sudo and as root, but I still get the exact same error message. I had configured /etc/dovecot/conf.d/99-mail-stack-delivery.conf earlier on, and line 6 of that document says, "ssl_client_ca_dir = /etc/ssl/certs" which is exactly what the ars guide told me it should say. What have I done wrong? Thanks again, Daniel

Re: [Dovecot] versioning of mailbox index files
by morrison 19 Mar '14

19 Mar '14

My current approach is to introduce a index version file .dovecot.index.version in each mailbox and hooks mailbox_allocated event via my own plugin. If the version file does not exist or exist but with version number which need to be upgraded, index files in that mailbox are removed. I also tried to hook mailbox_opened() event and found that event was too late (index was loaded already). The side effect of hooking mailbox_allocated is that the event fires not only by 'select' command. 'list' command can also trigger a lot of mailbox_allocated events. Are there any better hook points I can use for this purpose? Thanks,

[Dovecot] Using a Sieve script to handle delivery to public mailboxes
by Alessandro Menti 19 Mar '14

19 Mar '14

Hello everyone, I'm setting up a Postfix+Dovecot stack with virtual domains and public mailboxes. I set up a shared mailbox "office(a)mydomain.com" as described in the Dovecot Wiki [1], that is: - I created the directory "/var/mail/mydomain.com/public/" and inside it I created the ".office" mailbox; - I added an appropriate ACL to allow the account "president(a)mydomain.com" to read and edit that mailbox under a public namespace; - I added a Sieve script to handle delivery to the public mailbox (its location is /var/mail/mydomain.com/public/.office/.dovecot.sieve). Some other relevant details about my configuration: - The backend used by Postfix and Dovecot to handle virtual aliases/domains/maps is a MySQL database. Since the virtual user table is used by other applications as well, I decided to keep it "clean" and to make use of another "virtual mailboxes" table (see /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext below). The password_query setting returns only results from the virtual user table (so that only real users can authenticate on the IMAP server), while the user_query setting returns results from both the virtual user and the virtual mailbox table (so that dovecot-lda can choose the correct mailbox). - The queries saved in password_query and user_query return the correct results when executed manually: the home directory for the "office(a)mydomain.com" virtual mailbox is set to /var/mail/mydomain.com /public/.office. - Delivery from and to the "president(a)mydomain.com" account is regular, and that account is able to access the "office(a)mydomain.com" virtual mailbox (I have tested this by speaking IMAP to the server and by performing a manual check using Thunderbird). I encountered a problem with this setup: when I send a message to the "office(a)mydomain.com" account, the Postfix logs say it is correctly delivered via Dovecot, but the Sieve script says it can not find the folder "Public/.office". As a consequence, Dovecot creates a new Maildir in /var/mail/mydomain.com/office and delivers the mail there instead of saving it in the correct directory (/var/mail/mydomain.com/public/.office). Is there something I set incorrectly in my configuration? What is causing Dovecot not to recognize the correct mailbox during delivery?

Allowing a sender control over both the recipient (via spoofing), and the content seems like perfect recipe to turn your mail server into a spam relay cannon. If you do do this, you should hedge this by only allowing it from known trusted senders (e.g. local network). Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[Dovecot] Dovecot crashes on large search result sets in virtual folders when using fts-solr
by Steffen Templin 19 Mar '14

19 Mar '14

Hi Devs, I experience reproducible crashes when searching in a virtual folder with fts-solr activated. The crashes occur only, if the folder contains a large number of mails and the result set of the search is also large. If the result set is small, no crash occurs. This happens on Debian Wheezy with versions 2.1.7 and 2.2.9. My goal was it to setup the possibility for cross-folder fulltext search. Therefore dovecot was setup with fts-solr, which seems to work fine in most cases. A virtual folder "test" in a namespace "virtual" was created and configured to return all mails from all mailboxes in the default namespace (with empty prefix). It was configured like this: /etc/dovecot/virtual/test/dovecot-virtual: * all It's also reproducible with: INBOX all The test user only has the standard mail folders (Sent, Drafts, Trash) beside the INBOX and of course the folder "virtual.test". INBOX contains about 10.000 mails, the other folders are empty. "virtual.test" correctly referrs to all mails of the INBOX. Searching within the INBOX returns the desired results without any problems. Performing the same search within "virtual.test" fails and dovecot crashes. However, if the result set is small, no crash occurs. My test mails are imported from the ubuntu mailing list. Therefore the term "ubuntu" produces a large result set. See attachments for further details, they all refer to the same crash, reproduced with version 2.2.9 (from the Debian Backports repository): - config.txt: dovecot -n - gdb_backtrace.txt: The gdb backtrace of the attached core dump - log.txt: A logfile extract from the crash - protocol_output.txt: The telnet session that caused the crash Don't hesitate to ask for further details. Thanks and best regards, Steffen

[Dovecot] versioning of mailbox index files
by morrison 18 Mar '14

18 Mar '14

Hi, I am wondering if dovecot assigns version information in mailbox index files so that by which version of dovecot the index files are created can be determined. Our existing mail service used dovecot 2.2.4 with lots of active mail users. When upgraded to 2.2.10, imap processes aborted all the time due to the corrupted index files (the problem was fixed in dovecot 2.2.5). After investigation, I found that this annoying problem could be avoid by deleting index files before opening a mailbox. Now the problem is how I could know if the index files are created by a version newer than 2.2.4. Thanks, Morrison
