[Dovecot] Nee assistance with migrating/copying a virtual user's maildir to another virtual user
by David Varela 26 Aug '13

Hello, I am trying to move/copy a virtual user's maildir to another virtual user but am running into problems with dsync and doveadm. I'm trying to move the maildir of a user who is no longer with the company to a manager's maildir. For doveadm I am using the command: doveadm move -u scavenaugh(a)lamontanita.coop jhenning(a)lamontanita.coop/INBOX/scavenaugh INBOX ALL The error is: doveadm(scavenaugh(a)lamontanita.coop): Error: user scavenaugh(a)lamontanita.coop: Auth USER lookup failed /var/log/dovecot.log shows: passdb doesn't support lookups, can't verify user's existence dovecot -n # 2.1.6: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE i386 ufs auth_cache_ttl = 14 mins auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_mechanisms = plain gssapi login auth_use_winbind = yes auth_verbose = yes auth_winbind_helper_path = /usr/local/bin/ntlm_auth first_valid_gid = 1001 first_valid_uid = 1001 info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot_info.log last_valid_gid = 1001 last_valid_uid = 1001 log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log mail_debug = yes mail_location = maildir:/usr/data/vmail/%u mail_max_userip_connections = 30 mail_privileged_group = mail passdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap.conf driver = ldap } plugin { sieve = /usr/data/sieve-scripts/%u.sieve } protocols = imap pop3 service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-master { mode = 0600 } user = root } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/dovecot/04JAN12cert.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl//dovecot/04JAN12key.pem userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/usr/data/vmail/%u driver = static } valid_chroot_dirs = /usr/data/vmail verbose_proctitle = yes protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail tb-extra-mailbox-sep } protocol pop3 { pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } protocol lda { mail_plugins = sieve sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail } Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

[Dovecot] A question of imap timeout exit
by 刘莹莹 26 Aug '13

26 Aug '13

hello: I have a question on imap process: if a client connect to dovecot like foxmail(version 10) , dovecot will start at least 3 imap processes , and these imap processes will online until client logout , if the client not logout ,the imap process will always online. this is similar to the long connection and imap's auto logout timer is not effect in this case. now I have two questions: 1: if there are a large number of users online at the same time ( eg about 30 000 users): so dovecot should shart at least 30 000 * 3 imap processes, if user not logout ,so many processes are online all the time .this is terrible. I dot'n know if there is a solution ?? now I have changed the timeout = 2min and test ,dovecot active disconnected imap process ,but I don't think this is a appropriate option. 2: I want to know why auto logout timer duration of IMAP protocol must be not less than 30 minuters ?? My English is not vary good ,I'm sorry but I really want to know the answer . thanks

[Dovecot] dovecot OK for intranet, not OK for external IPs
by Sulla 25 Aug '13

25 Aug '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear all! I'm stuck. I've got a dovecot IMAP server running (TLS, port 149) on Ubuntu 13.04 server behind a DSL router. The mailserver's IP is 10.0.0.1 When I connect to my mailbox from my intranet-PC (10.0.0.2), everything works as expected. Login OK, acces to all mailboxes is ok, everything. netstat -nt on my email server shows me: Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 10.0.0.1:143 10.0.0.2:57952 ESTABLISHED and /var/log/mail.log shows me: Aug 24 22:41:00 SERVERNAME dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<UID>, method=PLAIN, rip=10.0.0.2, lip=10.0.0.1, mpid=24326, TLS, session=<3Ul+irfkYAAKAAAC> However, when I connect to my mailserver through the internet (from 10.196.124.7 which is a modem of my ISP), dovecot ignores the authentication request. It does nothing. Just nothing. My router forwards the connection request to my mailserver correctly, so port forwarding on the router is ok, as my mailserver gets a connection request from the client. Proof: "netstat -nt" shows me: Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 10.0.0.1:143 10.196.124.7:1024 SYN_RECV So, my server gets a connection request on port 143 from my client PC, but then nothing happens. By nothing I mean, that nothing gets written into /var/log/mail.log and my email client (Thunderbird) gets a connection timeout. Any ideas why dovecot is refusing connections? How can I solve this problem? thanx all Sulla -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlIZI7sACgkQR6b2EdogPFvqxACgrUACK1J8tHCxJR0jMUui14bs TsoAnAw4QnVr2kydjk2cErKW+i6oVu1f =86wg -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

[Dovecot] SSL Cipher Order in Dovecot
by Marc Grooz 23 Aug '13

Hi, I want that dovecot uses PFS with my Apple Devices. I set the Cipher List to: ssl_cipher_list = DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:DHE-RSA-AES128-SHA:!aNULL:!eNULL:!LOW:!3DES:!MD5:!EXP:!CBC:!PSK:!SRP:!DSS:!SSLv2:!RC4 I got this from here: http://www.kuketz-blog.de/perfect-forward-secrecy-mit-apple-mail/ But then my only Outlook 2010 Client won't connect. If i enable rsa-aes128-SHA again on third place all clients connect without dhe. Dosen't dovecot horner the Cipher Order in the config? Kind regards Marc

[Dovecot] piegonhole sieve prepending header lines with an extra space
by Anand Kumria 23 Aug '13

23 Aug '13

Hi, I've noticed that the redirect sieve extension is placing an extra space before the headers of email when the 'redirect' command is used. Unfortunately this break gmail, yahoo, and most other email programs. I am using pigeonhole 0.4.0-14 with Dovecot 2.2.4.3; I see change 1781:e439789e3211 but it appears to only change how the X-Sieve header is generated. I only have the one dovecot instance but I will note that the setting 'mail_save_crlf = yes' is specified. Thanks, Anand

[Dovecot] Logging passwords on auth failure/dealing with botnets
by Michael Smith (DF) 23 Aug '13

23 Aug '13

Hi, Since upgrading our mail servers to Postfix/Dovecot, we've seen a rather large increase in botnet brute force password attacks. I guess our old servers were too slow to suit their needs. Now, when they hit upon a valid user, it's easy to see what passwords they are trying (we've enabled auth_debug_passwords and set auth_verbose_passwords = plain). We can easily have log monitors pick up the blatant password attempts (123, 1234, 12345, 3.1415926, etc) and firewall them. Aug 22 00:21:47 host1 dovecot: auth-worker(1423): sql(aea,120.198.9.221): Password mismatch (given password: 3.1415926) However, when they are plugging away on an invalid user, all the logs show is 'unknown user'. The only way to see what they are doing is to tcpdump on the box. Almost 99% of the attacks are through SMTP/SASL attempts, using 'auth login'. Postfix is configured to use Dovecot for the authentication backend. NOTE: parens contain the base64 decoded values, this is not part of the data stream. C: auth login S: 334 VXNlcm5hbWU6 (334 Username:) C: YWVi (aeb) S: 334 UGFzc3dvcmQ6 (334 Password:) C: My4xNDE1OTI2 (3.1415926) S: 535 5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: UGFzc3dvcmQ6 (535 5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: Password:) Aug 22 11:00:31 host3 dovecot: auth-worker(19844): sql(aeb,120.198.9.221): unknown user How difficult would it be to add logging the given password, observing the auth_debug_passwords and auth_verbose_passwords settings, for all authentication failures? When we see certain patterns, we want to aggressively block those IPs, regardless of if it's a valid username or an unknown user. Or another option, is there any good DNS based RBLs for botnet IPs, and is there any way to tie that in to the dovecot auth system? I've been looking for botnet rbls, but what I've found so far doesn't seem to work very well. Most of the IPs that I've had to firewall don't exist in them. -- Michael Smith

Hi there Giles, not really a solution to your problem, but a hint: Try activating "verbose_proctitle = yes" in your dovecot.conf, restart service dovecot and you might get more information (when the load is produced by logged in users) - it gives you verbose information about which specific user with which IP is generating the high load.

[Dovecot] Problem compiling 2.2.5

I'm trying to upgrade a very old sparcstation running Solaris 8 which is running dovecot 1.x for few users. All I have for the task is good old gcc 2.95.2. The poor sod complains because it can't compute the sizeof(unsigned char prefix_text[]) at line 13 of log-error-buffer.c. Can I help it by - say - putting a constant between the '[]'? Or is it unfair? :-) I don't think it's woth modifying the distribution only for us owning machines that should be in a museum by now... Thanks for the good software, BTW, luciano. -- /"\ /Via A.

[Dovecot] Sieve filterset not activating in Dovecot 2.0.15 with Sieve plug-in and Roundcube 0.5.3: "NO (TRYLATER) Internal Error."
by Joe Lourenco 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

Hello Everyone, I am running Dovecot 2.0.15 with its Sieve plug-in, and Roundcube 0.5.3. I have a problem with just one particular user, who after creating a filters set and creating a filter in Roundcube, this user cannot activate the filters set. At first, this user could not create a filter at all. That was resolved by creating the "sieve" directory with the right permissions in his /home. Logs show the following when trying to activate the filters set via the Roundcube: roundcube: S: NO (TRYLATER) "Internal error occured. Refer to server log for more information. [2013-08-21 19:01:13]" Nothing is showing up on the server log. I have tried to activate the filter via the Sieve command line, authenticating the user, then running "SETACTIVE "roundcube"", but the error is the same, an internal server error. Again, I can successfully do this via the command line or Roundcube, from say, my userid. I appreciate any help. -- Joe Lourenco Systems Administrator C & C Technologies Cell: 55-21-8596-0078 Phone: 55-21-2499-9591

[Dovecot] dovecot2, antispam and sieve versions
by Terry Barnum 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

I'm currently running dovecot2 v2.2.5 with dovecot2-antispam 0.0-51 and dovecot2-sieve 0.4.1, all via macports. If one wanted to downgrade to dovecot v2.2.0, would these versions of antispam and sieve still be okay to use? The reason for the question is I'm trying to diagnose a mailserver problem where after 2-6 days the machine goes deaf. Absolutely nothing of interest in any logfile that I can see except for an imap-login process crash which got me thinking about a downgrade test.

[Dovecot] Dovecot antispam plugin for 2.2
by Micah Anderson 21 Aug '13

21 Aug '13

Hello, I recently was looking to update to dovecot 2.2 and I have been happily using the dovecot-antispam plugin in 2.1, but found that there have been some changes in dovecot that make this version not compile against 2.2. I'm wondering if Johannes you have any plans to update it, or if others have managed to figure out what is necessary to get it to work? The particular piece that I am currently stuck on is that the dict_init() in dovecot now requires more arguments than in previous versions, it now requires this: int dict_init(const char *uri, enum dict_data_type value_type, const char *username, const char *base_dir, struct dict **dict_r, const char **error_r); but previously, we only needed four arguments. Now we need to know what to supply for '**dict_r' and '**error_r'. Any advise/help would be appreciated: make[1]: Entering directory `/home/micah/debian/dovecot-antispam/dovecot-antispam-2.0+20120225' cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/usr/include/dovecot/ -I/usr/include/dovecot/src/ -I/usr/include/dovecot/src/lib/ -I/usr/include/dovecot/src/lib-storage/ -I/usr/include/dovecot/src/lib-mail/ -I/usr/include/dovecot/src/lib-imap/ -I/usr/include/dovecot/src/lib-dict/ -I/usr/include/dovecot/src/lib-index/ -I/usr/include/dovecot/src/imap/ -o dovecot-version dovecot-version.c ./dovecot-version > dovecot-version.h CC antispam-storage.o In file included from antispam-storage-2.2.c:20:0, from antispam-storage.c:3: antispam-plugin.h: In function ‘string_dict_init’: antispam-plugin.h:288:2: error: too few arguments to function ‘dict_init’ return dict_init(uri, DICT_DATA_TYPE_STRING, username, NULL); ^ In file included from antispam-plugin.h:13:0, from antispam-storage-2.2.c:20, from antispam-storage.c:3: /usr/include/dovecot/dict.h:34:5: note: declared here int dict_init(const char *uri, enum dict_data_type value_type, ^ micah

[Dovecot] Dsync confusion...
by Ben 21 Aug '13

21 Aug '13

Hi, Maybe I've been staring at config files and man pages too long, but the doc page for Dsync is a little confusing and I don't how to solve my problem. I've probably missed something simple and stupid, but as I said, I've been staring at this problem too long and need a second pair of eyes on it ! Per doveconf below the user/owner for auth db is a user with shell /bin/false. Root SSH login is also disabled on the target machine, so I need to use a script user to do the sync. I installed dovecot on the target host and config'd it as per the second doveconf below But all I ever get are errors such as : su -c "dsync -u test(a)somewhere.example.com backup its-virtmail(a)somewhere.example.com" its_scripts dsync(its_scripts): Fatal: setuid(1001(its-virtmail) from userdb lookup) failed with euid=1002(its_scripts): Operation not permitted (This binary should probably be called with process user set to 1001(its-virtmail) instead of 1002(its_scripts)) root@ukc-vm02-mx01:/etc/dovecot/conf.d# dsync(its_scripts): Error: userdb lookup: connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb) failed: Permission denied (euid=1002(its_scripts) egid=1002(its_scripts) missing +r perm: /var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb, dir owned by 0:0 mode=0755) Even if I temporarily give /bin/sh and an ssh key to the dovecot user, I still can't get it to work : ssh its-virtmail(a)somewhere.example.com dsync -u test(a)example.com dsync(its-virtmail): Error: user test(a)somewhere.example.com: Initialization failed: mail_location not set and autodetection failed: Mail storage autodetection failed with home=/srv/mail/example.com/test dsync(its-virtmail): Fatal: User init failed dsync-local(test(a)somewhere.example.com): Error: read() from worker server failed: EOF # SOURCE HOST # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.5.0-37-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = sha1 mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir 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 passdb { args = scheme=CRYPT username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } plugin { fts = solr fts_solr = url=http://localhost:8080/solr/ sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = imap lmtp sieve service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { group = its-virtmail mode = 0660 user = its-virtmail } } service imap-login { process_min_avail = 3 } service lmtp { process_min_avail = 5 unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } user = its-virtmail } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } inet_listener sieves { port = 5190 ssl = yes } process_min_avail = 3 } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/mx_example.com.pem ssl_cipher_list = TLSv1+HIGH:!SSLv2:!aNULL:!eNULL:!3DES:!PSK:@STRENGTH ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/mx_example.com.key userdb { args = username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail mail_max_userip_connections = 10 mail_plugins = fts fts_solr } protocol pop3 { mail_max_userip_connections = 10 pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh } protocol lda { deliver_log_format = msgid=%m: %$ mail_plugins = sieve postmaster_address = postmaster quota_full_tempfail = yes rejection_reason = Your message to <%t> was automatically rejected:%n%r } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = sieve postmaster_address = postmaster(a)example.com } #DEST HOST # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.5.0-37-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = sha1 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 passdb { args = scheme=CRYPT username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = " imap lmtp sieve" service auth { unix_listener auth-userdb { group = its-virtmail user = its-virtmail } } service lmtp { process_min_avail = 3 user = its-virtmail } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file }

[Dovecot] Delivering message to other mailbox
by Frank de Bot 21 Aug '13

21 Aug '13

Hi, On my mailserver I have for each mailbox a sieve script to put Spam-marked message into a folder (match header, then fileinto 'Spam'). This works, but I want to deliver spam-marked messages to a different mailbox. For each user a seperate mailbox is created next to the existing mailbox, allowing different authentication. How can I do this with dovecot/pigeonhole? I figured out I could redirect is the user.spam@domain which delivers to the other mailbox, but it will go into a new delivery process with amavis set up. (There's no point to scan a single message twice). Is there a way I can accomplish to directly deliver a spam-marked message to a different mailbox? Regards, Frank de Bot
