[Dovecot] zlib error when running doveadm
by Michael Long 22 Jul '13

22 Jul '13

I manually fixed it by copying src/plugins/zlib/lib20_zlib_plugin.la to /usr/local/lib/dovecot/doveadm I do not understand why 'make install' won't do that? A bug perhaps?

[Dovecot] OT: SAN vs Flash only SAN-less VM architecture for data storage
by Charles Marcus 21 Jul '13

21 Jul '13

Hello all, I am investigating options for leveraging our companies two locations, to provide fault tolerance/redundancy for our VM infrastructure. I was looking at SAN storage options, but ran across an interesting article, and would like opinions. It sounds great, a real win-win as to cost *and* performance... We have redundant/identical hosts at each location that can fulfill the requirements discussed... http://www.storage-switzerland.com/Articles/Entries/2012/9/20_The_Benefits_… or http://tinyurl.com/khwuspo Stan, I'm especially interested in your take, considering your experience with high end SANs and VM storage environments... Thanks, -- Best regards, Charles

[Dovecot] Archiving mail
by Koenraad Lelong 18 Jul '13

18 Jul '13

Hi, I'm going to migrate my company-mailserver to new hardware. I would like to take the opportunity to archive some older mail. But I would like to have it still accessible, would this be possible with dovecot ? I mean, I would like to put that older mail from different users (I got about 50 users) on some read-only media but mount that media in the users mail-dirs. That way I will have less to backup after I backup that old mail and store it safely away. I can't convince my users to really clean up their mailboxes, so I backup more than 100GB mail while the total backup is a bit more than 300GB. Writing this I realise I could give each user a folder oldmail and symlink that to a read-only oldmail folder. Would this work ? I will have to find out how my backup-software can ignore the oldmail-folder. Thanks for any suggestions, Koenraad Lelong

[Dovecot] Password encryption type for dovecot & postfix saslauthd with mysql
by Simon 18 Jul '13

18 Jul '13

Hi There, We are using dovecot v2.2.4 (compiled from source) and postfix (yum install) on Centos 6.4. We are storing our virtual user config in mysql. Server 1 has dovecot/postfix and accepts incoming mail from our mail filter servers - this is purely for IMAP/POP services. Server 2 has postfix for our clients to send email via TLS/saslauthd. Both use the same (separate) mysql server for config. One issue is that we have a requirement to merge user / passwords for sending clients from two sources: 1) the dovecot mailbox list 2). another list. The dovecot user list is email + password. The other list is username + password. To that end we have created a view table in mysql that merges the two.. tables + view look a little like this: table: mail_users (for dovecot) email,password test(a)test1.com,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD test2(a)test1.com,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD bla(a)bla.com,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD table: mail_senders_other username,password username1,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD something_else,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD view: mail_senders (for postfix) username,password test(a)test1.com,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD test2(a)test1.com,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD bla(a)bla.com,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD username1,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD something_else,CRAM-MD5_PASSWORD I have dovecot working fine, but just need a little push in the correct direction (please) to figure out the correct settings and password encryption scheme to make the above work. Many thanks! Simon

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.2.4 does not create home directory?
by Dmitry . 17 Jul '13

17 Jul '13

Hi, Does not create, or something I did wrong? Here http://wiki2.dovecot.org/VirtualUsers/Home it is written Home vs. mail directory Home directory shouldn't be the same as mail directory. It's possible to do that, but you might run into trouble with it sooner or later. Some problems with this are: and Ways to set up home directory The home directory is the same as the mail directory. If for example home=/var/vmail/domain/user/ mail=/var/vmail/domain/user/mail/, set: mail_home = /var/vmail/%d/%n mail_location = maildir:~/mail I think I've done it so. And yet, here http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/SimpleVirtualInstall it is written Users can be added by editing this file. Dovecot automatically notices the new users immediately after they're added. It also creates their home directories when the user logs in. However, the directory is not created.

[Dovecot] Variable similar to %u but providing the username changed by a database lookup?
by Axel Luttgens 17 Jul '13

17 Jul '13

Hello, Variable %u may be used in dovecot.conf whenever the "full username" is needed. But the expansion of %u returns the username before a possible change performed thru a password or user database lookup (e.g., in the case of a SQL database, thru as "AS user" clause). Is there a variable that would expand to the changed name when used in the configuration file? TIA, Axel

[Dovecot] courier to dovecot
by J Gao 17 Jul '13

17 Jul '13

Hi, All, I am new here and I need your advises. Here is my story: I have a mail server like this: - CentOS 5 32 bit (LAMP) - Postfix 2.3 - Courier - MailScanner Courier use maildir to save emails in /home/vmail/<virtual domain>/<user> / Now I want to build a new system on CentOS 6.4 64bit with postfix, dovecot and migrate all user accounts and their emails. I already installed CentOS 6.4, postfix and mysql. Also just installed Dovecot v2.2.4 from the RPM. Now I am looking into how to Is there a good instruction on how to do this kind of migration? I still prefer using the maildir system. If I just copy all users email from old server to new dovecot user maildir, will dovecot see these mails (and sub-folders) ? Do I need do anything extra? Thanks in advance. Gao -- __ _|==|_ ('')__/ >--(`^^') (`^'^'`) `======'

[Dovecot] reload without shutting imap connections down
by Hajo Locke 16 Jul '13

16 Jul '13

Hello, we have some problems with users who report connectionproblems to dovecot sometimes. According to the logs there are dovecot reloads at this times. Seems that a reload also causes dovecot to shut all imapconnections down: Jul 16 13:31:40 myhostname dovecot: master: Warning: SIGHUP received - reloading configuration Jul 16 13:31:40 myhostname dovecot: imap: Server shutting down. bytes=251/675 I tried to reload by initscript or sending -HUP manually to pid, dovecot is shutting down imapconnections and i think this is the reason for users to report this problems with some clients. This seems to be new with versions 2.x, i have some old 1.2.x dovecots running and cant find "Server shutting down" in their logs after reload. I have still potential to reduce reloads, but cant avoid them completely. Is there a workaround? Thanks, Hajo

[Dovecot] Difference between using auth_realms and setting up virtual mailboxes in postfix?
by Gab IIpop 16 Jul '13

16 Jul '13

Hi, there is a possibility in the future that I might have to support multiple domain names(but using the same IP address). Postfix has something called 'virtual mailboxes' to help handle this. But I also noticed that dovecot has a setting "auth_realms" where I can specify domains separated by a space. What is the relationship between the two?

Currently I have configured the share of users through the LDAP query as shown #dovecot.conf protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota imap_quota } plugin { quota = dirsize } userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } #dovecot-ldap.conf auth_bind = yes ldap_version = 3 base = dc=XXX,dc=YY,dc=ZZ deref = never scope = subtree user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uidNumber=uid,gidNumber=gid,mail=Maildir,mailQuotaSize=quota_rule=*:storage=%$ user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,homeDirectory=userdb_home,uidNumber=userdb_uid,gidNumber=userdb_gid pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) Additionally in thunderbird customers have the plug so they can see the share. This works perfect! However, when the mailbox exceeds 100% users continue to receive mail which makes the risk set allocated disk space, the idea is that when full the mail reject with a message "mailbox XXX full" . As always appreciate the ideas. Victor Oñate

[Dovecot] Proxying improvements in v2.1.2
by Timo Sirainen 16 Jul '13

16 Jul '13

I just committed a couple of features that will make life easier for some types of proxying setups: 1. IMAP proxying has already for a while supported sending local/remote IP/port to backend server, which can use it for logging and other purposes. I've now implemented this for POP3 as well, although only the remote IP/port is forwarded, not local IP/port. I implemented this also for LMTP in v2.2 tree, but haven't bothered to backport that change. Both POP3 and LMTP uses XCLIENT command that is compatible to Postfix's (XCLIENT ADDR=1.2.3.4 PORT=110). 2. proxy_maybe=yes + host=host.example.com actually works now. As long as host.example.com DNS lookup returns one IP that belongs to the current server the proxying is skipped. 3. auth_proxy_self = 1.2.3.4 setting means that if proxy_maybe=yes and host=1.2.3.4 then Dovecot assumes that this is a local login and won't proxy it, even if 1.2.3.4 isn't the actual local IP. This can be helpful if the host field contains load balancer's IP address instead of the server's. You can add more than one IP (space separated) and of course everything related to this works just as well with hostnames as with IPs (even when hostname expands to multiple IPs).

[Dovecot] Sieve vacation variables reference

Hi There. We are using dovecot v2.2.4 with pigeonhole 0.4.1 (both compiled from source) Centos 6.4. Sorry for the dumb question in advance if I'm just missing an obvious link somewhere (also if I've got the terminology all wrong!), but could someone point me to the reference list for "vacation", e.g.: vacation :days :subject :addresses :from is there a definitive list of things like "days", "subject" etc? Thanks Simon
