[Dovecot] Duplicate supression mechanism
by 3.listas＠adminlinux.com.br 30 Jan '13

30 Jan '13

Hello, In a Dovecot 2.0.6 server I have an account x@domain and an alias y@domain -> x@domain. When I send an email to x@domain with carbon copy to y@domain, X receives two messages on mailbox. Dovecot2 has any feature of duplicate suppression ? Thanks -- Thiago Henrique adminlinux.com.br

[Dovecot] dovecot.index is missing
by Alexandr Sabitov 30 Jan '13

30 Jan '13

Dear All, I have noticed that dovecot.index is not generated straight away if you have just a few emails in the mailbox. Instead of that dovecot.index.log is modified and accessed by clients. Only if the number of email reaches some level then it creates dovecot.index in user mailboxes. Can somebody please tell me when (in my understanding of the process) the index log file drops all data into the mail index file. What does trigger that ? Sorry I couldn't find any info on that in the wiki. Best Regards, Alexandr Sabitov

[Dovecot] password schemes in dovecot
by Public 28 Jan '13

28 Jan '13

Hey there, I'm using the latest dovecot 2.1.13 In the wiki http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/PasswordSchemes BLF-CRYPT is listed, but i can't use it. "doveadm pw -l" doesn't show it. And i'm unsure about how I am supposed to use the different SHA schemes, since they always output different hashes for the same password. MD5 is working fine, but I'd rather not use it. Is the wiki outdated or how do i get BLF-CRYPT working? thanks, simon

[Dovecot] From Sendmail to Dovecot mdbox, what is missing.
by Torpey List 27 Jan '13

27 Jan '13

Sendmail 8.14.4 dovecot 2.0.9 I have sendmail working and it is sending mail to /var/mail/%u. I have dovecot working in that I can move emails into IMAP folders and I can send email through IMAP. I have set up dovecot to use mdbox based on the following: mail_location = mdbox:~/mail However, I seem to be lacking a key piece of information. Sendmail is sending the mail to /var/mail/%u as a mbox (single file for all emails) format. Dovecot wants to read the mail in mdbox (Multiple messages per file, but unlike mbox multiple files per mailbox.) So the two programs are not working together. So, I cannot get dovecot to read new emails at /var/mail/%u. So I tried changing to the following: mail_location = mdbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u However, dovecot complains that it is NOT a directory. That is because sendmail is sending as mbox format. I have tried two lines of “mail_location” but that did not work. example mail_location = mdbox:~/mail ----> for dovecot mail_location = mbox:INBOX=/var/mail/%u -----> for sendmail I have tried LMTP and dovecot-lda. LMTP – I could not see any difference with this added or not. Dovecot-lda – I have had issues getting it configured. Thanks for any help! Sendmail changes FEATURE(`local_procmail', `/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda',`/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $u') MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`LOCAL', `-f') MAILER(procmail)dnl Here is dovecot configuration [root@nala mail]# dovecot -n # 2.0.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-279.14.1.el6.x86_64 x86_64 Scientific Linux release 6.3 (Carbon) auth_mechanisms = plain login mail_gid = mail mail_location = mdbox:~/mail mail_uid = mail mbox_write_locks = fcntl passdb { driver = pam } plugin { mail_log_events = delete undelete expunge copy mailbox_delete mailbox_rename mail_log_group_events = yes } service auth { unix_listener auth-userdb { mode = 0600 user = mail } } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { address = 192.168.1.185 127.0.0.1 ::1 port = 24 } user = mail } ssl_cert = </etc/pki/dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/pki/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem userdb { driver = passwd } protocol lda { info_log_path = /var/log/maillog log_path = /var/log/maillog postmaster_address = postmaster(a)torpey.org }

[Dovecot] mbox INBOX out of sync (?)
by Tinguaro Barreno Delgado 26 Jan '13

26 Jan '13

Hello all, I've running a Dovecot's installation for several years without problems but since last system upgrade (Dec 26) I'm facing a kind of sync issue with the /var/mail/ inbox files. We have got mobile and desktops IMAP clients (mostly Mozilla Thunderbird). The problem is that /var/mail/ files (mbox) aren't updated: we can delete mail from clients but they persist in de /var/mail, so the same user can see the mail again from other IMAP client. Logs seems to be correct. Many thanks in advance.

[Dovecot] Dovecot unable to access the shadow file
by kenwood 25 Jan '13

25 Jan '13

I am installing Dovecot-2.1.13 on Slackware 13.37.0 for the first time to replace ipop3d and I have overcome all of the roadblocks as they have developed except this last one and I finally have to say “uncle”. The error messages that are showing up in the dovecot.log are as follows. Jan 24 12:27:27 tux2 dovecot: auth: Error: passwd-file /etc/shadow: open(/etc/shadow) failed: Permission denied (euid=202(dovecot) egid=202(dovecot) missing +r perm: /etc/shadow, we're not in group 43(shadow), dir owned by 0:0 mode=0755) Jan 24 12:27:27 tux2 dovecot: auth: passwd-file(user,192.168.10.2,<pw3xHwzUSQDAqAoC>): no passwd file: /etc/shadow Jan 24 12:27:29 tux2 dovecot: pop3-login: Warning: SSL alert: where=0x4008, ret=256: warning close notify [192.168.10.2] Jan 24 12:27:29 tux2 dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected (auth failed, 1 attempts in 2 secs): user=<user>, method=PLAIN, rip=192.168.10.2, lip=192.168.10.100, TLS: Disconnected, session=<pw3xHwzUSQDAqAoC> Based on what I have read the only user that should access the shadow file is root. With that in mind I looked at all the configuration and .ext files and the only file I could find that would indicate that root should be checking the shadow file is 10-master.conf. In that file it said the default service auth-worker was root but since it was apparently not working I removed the hash mark and made it explicit. It still didn’t work. As a last resort even though it was not good practice I tried adding user dovecot to the group shadow but that did not work either. It still says dovecot is not in the group shadow even though it is. Any suggestions? -- View this message in context: http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/Dovecot-unable-to-access-the-shadow-fi… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] dovecot 2.1.13, proxy and nologin extras field
by Marco Giunta 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

Hi at all, in our test environment, I'm playing with dovecot 2.1.13 configured as imap/pop/managesieve proxy. It is configured to authenticate users with ldap and it works very well. Now, I'd like to temporary disable some users's login, because we are moving to another storage, and I wouldn't stop imap service at all.

[Dovecot] Permissions when running `dovecot --exec-mail imap`
by Tim Marston 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

Hi, I'm running dovecot 1.2.15, on Debian squeeze. /var/mail is owned by group "mail" with permissions "g+rwxs,o=". The mail_privileged_group setting is set to "mail". I am trying to access mail on a remote machine with mutt by tunnelling mutt though ssh and running `dovecot --exec-mail imap` on the mail server. But I frequently get errors in the mail server's logs about not being able to create dotlock files when accessing my INBOX this way. This makes sense -- I'm running dovecot as a regular user, so it isn't able to write to /var/mail as group "mail". I notice that on the dovecot wiki[1] it is suggested that sudo is used to set uid/gid before running `dovecot --exec-mail imap`. But I don't actually want to set the uid, just the gid. And I also have sudo disabled at the moment. So I was wondering about another solution... Would it be acceptable to setgid the dovecot executable and change it's group to "mail" (i.e., `chgrp mail dovecot` and `chmod g+s dovecot`)? Would this pose some kind of security risk? Would this actualy do what I want, or am I missing a bigger picture? Kind regards, [1] http://wiki.dovecot.org/PreAuth -- Tim Marston ed.am

[Dovecot] warning regarding quota and mboxes
by Andreas Meyer 23 Jan '13

23 Jan '13

Hello! We drive mboxes and maildirs and the dovecot-server is running very well and everthing is fine, but I get the following warning in the dovecot-lda-errors.log when a mail is delivered to a mbox. Jan 10 16:29:24 lda(archiv(a)bitcorner.de): Warning: quota: Namespace '' is not Maildir, skipping for Maildir++ quota This is what I defined in the dovecot.conf: mail_home = /var/spool/vhosts/%d/%n mail_location = mbox:~/:maildir:~/ mail_plugins = quota plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=500MB quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+10%% } Can I avoid the error above somehow? Namespaces are a bit mysterious for me at the moment. Greetings Andreas

[Dovecot] speed up dovecot IMAP server
by Bernics Gábor | Penta Unió Zrt. 23 Jan '13

Hello, I upgraded my dovecot server (1.2 -> 2.1), from debian backport because it was a little slow (wait 5-6 sec) when I opened some mail (but not every mail). Unfortunately, the mail open speed didn't increase. I think it's an index problem. Have you idea for fixing?

[Dovecot] Fixing bad maildir message sizes
by Richard Platel 23 Jan '13

23 Jan '13

Hello. As stated in my previous message, we have some old compressed maildir messages with incorrect sizes in the filename. These messages cause dovecot 2.x problems. I'm trying to write a script to crawl all our messages, check the actual message size and if necessary, fix the filename. However, when I do this, dovecot gives the message a new UID on next login. If I change the filename in dovecot-uidlist, dovecot still gives a new UID on next login. If I change dovecot-uidlist and delete the index, then the UID is preserved. Re-indexing our millions of mailboxes is not a great solution for us. Is there a good way to fix this?

[Dovecot] question on "doveadm user" and pass/userdb
by Gábor Lénárt 22 Jan '13

22 Jan '13

Hi, I'm about getting to know dovecot in details, I am about the command "doveadm user". The man page shows this example: userdb: jane uid : 8001 gid : 8001 home : /home/jane mail : sdbox:~/sdbox plugins : sieve quota_rule: *:storage=150M It seems to be nice, however I never got this only: ~# doveadm user lgb@office userdb: lgb@office That's all. The dovecot test configuration works otherwise via IMAP/POP3/LMTP nicely. What I guess that the lack of extra information (which would be needed by some scripts of mine, eg for getting user's home easily from shell scripts, as it's hash based, etc) is caused because I don't pass home (and/or other settings) back from userdb and/or passdb. However I do have these in global scope: mail_home = /mailstorage/%Ld/%Ln (yes, this is not hashed at all at the momement but it will be soon) mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_uid = vmail mail_gid = vmail (... and also some global quota stuffs configured in plugin section) Now, I am a bit confused: even with passdb/userdb does not return with user home or GID/UID, dovecot knows these in case of pop3/imap/lmtp access, since these information can be "composed" from those settings. But then, wouldn't it possible so "doveadm user" shows those as well, like lmtp/pop3/imap can resolve those too? Honestly, it's a bit redundant to put needed information into user and pass attrs in every dbs (I have some) when dovecot knows those otherwise ... If I interpret "doveadm user"'s goal wrong (it's just for userdb/passdb query tool nothing more), is there any tool which works in this config, displaying extra information (at least user's home), or should I create some script which just repeats the functionality of dovecot's configured mail_home resolution? Thanks.

[Dovecot] Mail logger question
by Hungerburg 21 Jan '13

21 Jan '13

I use Dovecot simply as a way, to provide an e-mail archive for people on the LAN, where they can move messages into from within thunderbird. Mails are stored in a maildir of one system user where all the people know the password of. This was very easy to setup in ubuntu 12. Today I started using the mail_log plugin to provide an audit trail. Now I am looking for a light way, to get the log reflect the different people or principals. One way is, to create users with the same ID in the passwd and shadow files, but I'd rather have them in a separate file, something like a list of aliases for the system user. Can you suggest a simple way, without going virtual users? Below the relevant info on dovecot: $ dovecot --version 2.0.19 $ dovecot -n # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-35-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS mail_plugins = " fts fts_squat mail_log notify" passdb { driver = pam } plugin { fts = squat fts_squat = partial=4 full=10 mail_log_events = save delete undelete expunge copy mailbox_delete mailbox_rename mail_log_fields = uid box msgid size from subject } protocols = " imap" ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key userdb { driver = passwd } Thank you all -- peter

[Dovecot] %d in configuration file does not work
by Jens Tobiska 19 Jan '13

19 Jan '13

I am trying to set up dovecot in a postfix virtual account/domains setting. In the configuration file I would like to use %d in two places, for: mail_location = /var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n and to specify the location of the respective passwd file: passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/auth/%d/shadow } Looking at the logs, %d is empty while %n works, so dovecot is looking for something in /var/mail/vhosts//myname and /etc/auth//shadow which don't exist. Replacing %d in dovecot.conf with the actual domain name works. So, the quesiton is, why is %d empty, and from where does it take its value?

[Dovecot] [PATCH] LMTP: Permit user IDs containing recipient_delimiter
by Ulrich Zehl 18 Jan '13

18 Jan '13

The Dovecot 2.1 LMTP server currently always strips the address extension from a recipient address (if recipient_delimiter is set), meaning user IDs cannot contain the recipient delimiter character, e.g. "user+foo" is not supported. This was surprising for me, as Postfix behaves differently in this regard: It first looks up "user+foo", and only then "user". The attached patch works for me and brings Dovecot's behavior in line with Postfix. Please let me know what you think about it.
