Hi, I'm having the following setup. 2 datastores mounted as: /home/ and /data/mail2/ I have 2 namespaces: namespace archives-baie { prefix = INBOX.Extra-001. hidden = no list = yes inbox = no location = maildir:/data/mail2/%u/Maildir type = private } namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = INBOX. type = private } When trying to trash some folder from the second namespace, I get the following error in the logs: imap(USER): Error: rename(/data/mail2/USER/Maildir/.Archives.20112, /home/USER/Maildir/.Trash.20112) failed: Invalid cross-device link In my config I have: maildir_copy_with_hardlinks = no Do you have a clue about this issue ? Thanks

[Dovecot] UIDL and message migration
by Hugo Monteiro 28 Jun '11

28 Jun '11

Hello, I'm in the process of migrating accounts between two dovecot servers. An old server running ancient 1.0.15 and a new server running 1.2.15. Account migration is going to be gradual and so i would like to use imapsync to move messages and subscriptions from one server to the other. The only problem so far is with POP users. After doing an account migration with imapsync, and although both servers share the same pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv, the client downloads every message that was already on the server. Any pointers would be very much appreciated. Best Regards, Hugo Monteiro.

[Dovecot] problem with dovecot and sieve
by Javier 28 Jun '11

28 Jun '11

Hi We've been using dovecot with great success so far. We are trying to add sieve support for our users. We enabled managesieve and users can define rules from the webmail (roundcube) with sieverules plugin for roundcube. Everything goes ok, but here's a problem I couldn't figure yet. When I define a redirect rule, the mail is forwarded but a local copy is stored too. Weird thing is that the logs say redirecting failed but the mail gets forwarded. Let me show you some of this (personal data masked): # cat .dovecot.sieve ## Generated by Roundcube Webmail SieveRules Plugin ## # rule:[teste] if anyof (true) { redirect "xxxxx@xxxxxxxxx"; } And the log from the user's sieve log sieve: info: started log at Jun 15 18:05:49. error: msgid=<BANLkTik1OzJEreF0qW000OvFpkaR7nOhCQ(a)mail.gmail.com>: failed to redirect message to <xxxxxx@xxxxxxx> (refer to server log for more information). syslog: Jun 16 11:40:26 mailstore5 dovecot: lmtp(8458, xxxxxxx(a)xxxxxx.com) Error: /eMhMNoV+k0KIQAAmtbU9A: sieve: execution of script /var/maildir++/99/xxxxxx(a)xxxxxxxx/.dovecot.sieve failed, but implicit keep was successful (user logfile /var/maildir++/99/xxxxxx(a)xxxxx.com/.dovecot.sieve.log may reveal additional details) And gets redirected anyway Jun 16 11:40:26 mailstore5 postfix/smtp[13041]: CB4D1C79FE: to=<xxxx@xxxxxxx>, delay=0.12, delays=0.02/0/0.01/0.08, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as E24FAB0880) There's no explicit keep anywhere in the sieve rule, nor a global rule, so Im confused, the email should be forwarded only. The error message confuses me too, as it says failed but the mail gets through. dovecot -n # 2.0.9: /opt/mail/dovecot/etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.36.2 x86_64 Debian 5.0.8 auth_mechanisms = plain login base_dir = /opt/mail/dovecot/var disable_plaintext_auth = no listen = * mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_plugins = create_mbox quota managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include varia passdb { args = socket=/opt/mail/auth_server/var/socket timeout=10 driver = courier } plugin { quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = Trash:ignore quota_rule2 = Spam:ignore sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve } protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 30143 ssl = no } } service lmtp { inet_listener lmtp { address = 0.0.0.0 port = 30024 } process_min_avail = 4 } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 30110 } } ssl = no ssl_parameters_regenerate = 0 userdb { args = socket=/opt/mail/auth_server/var/socket timeout=10 driver = courier } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = create_mbox quota maildiraccess pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh pop3_reuse_xuidl = no pop3_save_uidl = no pop3_uidl_format = %f } protocol imap { mail_plugins = create_mbox quota imap_quota maildiraccess } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = create_mbox quota sieve } protocol sieve { mail_debug = yes } Your help is appreciated.

[Dovecot] Thunderbird or Dovecot causing duplicates
by Tim 28 Jun '11

28 Jun '11

Hey everyone, back on the list after a few years away. I have a strange issue that is just annoying. Trying to work out if it's Dovecot or Thunderbird causing the problem. Basically, I read an email (so it gets marked as read) and then very quickly I mark is as unread, (i.e. I realised I want to leave that email for later) which causes a duplicate email to be created. Generally I believe both duplicates are then marked as unread, but I've not taken too much notice of that part yet, other than the new email (the duplicate) being marked as unread. This has also happened when deleting emails from a junk folder. It seems to be events happening quickly that ether Thunderbird or Dovecot don't keep up with, so think the state of the message hasn't changed, so recreate the message maybe? I'm not really sure, so was hoping someone else had experienced the issue or could shed some light on it. Thanks Tim The logs from when I managed to recreate this manually this morning as a test.

[Dovecot] %d empty string
by Ryan Dotson 28 Jun '11

28 Jun '11

I am trying to upgrade from dovecot 1.x to Dovecot 2.0.13 on Fedora. My problem is the mail_location setting seems to ignore the %d variable. My my location is as follows: mail_location = maildir:/var/spool/virtual_mail/%d/%u/Maildir However, when trying to log in the maillog says it can't find /var/spool/virtual_mail//*myusername*/Maildir/cur. As you can see it just uses an empty string for the %d variable. Can anyone help? Thanks, Ryan

Hi since latest upgrade on my machine, i have lot of warnings in my log, and i found that it is due this change http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2011-February/018588.html Is there any option to disable these warnings ? Yes we have multiple UIDs so these warnings bothers me. Many thanks Regards Martin

[Dovecot] Default sendmail_path value
by Joseph Tam 28 Jun '11

28 Jun '11

It appears the documentation of this parameter is inconsistent with the documentation: > grep -nF /sendmail `gfind src -type f` src/lib-lda/lda-settings.c:41: .sendmail_path = "/usr/sbin/sendmail", src/config/all-settings.c:732: .sendmail_path = "/usr/sbin/sendmail", (and doc/example-config/conf.d/15-lda.conf is also consistent with this) but the documentations states http://wiki2.dovecot.org/LDA sendmail_path is used to send mails. Note that the default is /usr/lib/sendmail, which doesn't necessarily work the same as /usr/sbin/sendmail. I don't know which ought to be changed though. Joseph Tam <jtam.home(a)gmail.com>

[Dovecot] Help regarding getting password policy response
by sarguru 28 Jun '11

28 Jun '11

Hello, I have enabled ldap password policy in my open ldap server and it locks out the account after several unsuccessful bind attempts. I am able to get the password policy response which says "Account locked" by specifying '-e ppolicy' option in my ldapsearch command. I am looking for a way to get similar response when I use dovecot so that I can specify my clients that their account is locked. I understand the security risks involved but mine is low security and high usability requirement. Please share the solution with me. -- Thanks, Sarguru

[Dovecot] Extra plugins vía extrafield in ldap
by Antonio Perez-Aranda 28 Jun '11

Hi all, I'm using dovecot 2.0.9 and I have a config like this: dovecot.conf: passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/conf.d/passwd-ldap.conf driver = ldap } mail_plugins = $mail_plugins quota plugin { autocreate = INBOX.SPAM autocreate2 = INBOX.NoSPAM autosubscribe = INBOX.SPAM autosubscribe2 = INBOX.NoSPAM quota = maildir } protocol imap { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_quota autocreate } And in passwd-ldap.conf I have some like this to add extra plugins: user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uid=user,mailQuota=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$,mailPlugins=mail_plugins With this. I can see that dovecot load all plugins from settings, but in the user session, I can get only the plugins that I have selected in mailPlugins field If i check some like this: mailPlugins=mail_plugins=$mail_plugins %$, The imap session user is aborted after login. How can I add extra plugins by ldap without put on ldap all user plugins? -- Antonio Pérez-Aranda Alcaide aperezaranda(a)yaco.es Yaco Sistemas S.L. http://www.yaco.es/ C/ Rioja 5, 41001 Sevilla Teléfono +34 954 50 00 57 Fax +34 954 50 09 29

[Dovecot] dovecot security with IPv6
by Kārlis Repsons 27 Jun '11

27 Jun '11

Hi Timo, hi all others! In fact, I've only read one person claiming that IPv6 support opens up "too many backdoors" [1], but anyway, as I intend to run just particular services, please give me your opinion if it's insecure to have a dovecot server, which is accessed through a public IPv6 address... (or note just shortly what else could give a firm ground to such claims...) [1] http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-882557.html

[Dovecot] Sendmail + dovecot-lda + LDAP
by Василий Яковлев 27 Jun '11

27 Jun '11

Hi, I experince some problems with setting up Sendmail with the LDAP database for virtual mail accounts. Why i'm not writing to the LDAP mailing list? I believe, that the reason of my problem is in configuring dovecot-deliver. What i have: - FreeBSD - sendmail (Version 8.14.4 with LDAP support installed from ports) - Dovecot LDA + dovecot (as pop3/imap) - Cyrus Sasl (authdaemon for authentification) 1. Following http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sendmail i've set up deliver as LDA. Everything worked fine. 2. Following http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/DovecotOpenLdap i've set up Dovecot to work with tha ldap. Now i can authorize through the client or web interface and get to my maildir. 3. Now, i want my sendmail to accept mail for the account in LDAP database. sendmail.mc: ++++++++++++++++++++++ FEATURE(`local_procmail', `/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver',`/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d $u') MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`LOCAL', `-f') ...................................... define(`confLDAP_DEFAULT_SPEC', `-h "localhost" -b "dc=mydomain,dc=ru" -d "cn=dovecot,ou=accounts,dc=mydomain,dc=ru" -MLDAP_AUTH_SIMPLE -P /etc/mail/ldap_pass')dnl LDAPROUTE_DOMAIN(`mydomain.ru')dnl FEATURE(`ldap_routing', `null -T<TMPF>', `ldap -1 -T<TMPF> -v mail -k (&(objectclass=posixaccount)(mail=%0))', `passthru')dnl ...................................... MAILER(procmail) ++++++++++++++++++++++ After re-making the sendmail: ++++++++++++++++++++++ [root@test2 /etc/mail]# sendmail -bv -d60.1 test_user(a)mydomain.ru map_lookup(dequote, test) => NOT FOUND (0) map_lookup(host, mydomain.ru) => mydomain.ru.

User unknown ++++++++++++++++++++++ It's the problem of the local delivery, i believe. Why? Because after sendmail getting an email it passes it to the LDA, which must check the LDAP (not the passwd!) database for the user, to which this email is send to. Are there some possibilities to solve this problem? I appreciate any help.

[Dovecot] dovecot global sieve script problem
by Dhaval Patel 27 Jun '11

27 Jun '11

I cutover to a new server which uses Postfix & Dovecot to handle emails as opposed to Postfix & Courier in the old server. Below is the contents of my global sieve script and dovecot config info. The dovecot-deliver.log does show that the email is being delivered to INBOX.spam but it ends up in the INBOX instead. If I put the exact same rule in the user script, the emails are delivered into the INBOX.spam folder. Currently as a work around, I created user rules for all users and add this. For most users, it is the only rule. So my question is, why does it not work with the global script? Any help would be appreciated.

[Dovecot] Please help with Quota dict mysql configuration
by Denis Iskandarov 24 Jun '11

24 Jun '11

Hello So what i have: centos 5.6 postfix 2.3.3 dovecot 2.0.13 postfixadmin 2.3.3 roundcube 0.5.3 All general things are working right now i can send receive email with ssl connections etc... Now i'm trying to configure additional options like quota and some other plugins like sieve, trash, expire and deleted-to-trash. Configuration of quota is on first place. I have read wiki regarding quota config , dict config but can't make things running. Hope there are normal sample configs you can share with me. I'm total noob in sql, so it's very difficult for me to arrange stuff in a way i need. My configs: dict { quota = mysql:/etc/dovecot/conf.d/sql/dovecot-dict-sql.conf # expire = sqlite:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf } dovecot-dict-sql.conf sample i took from postfixadmin docs provided with package, also changed table to quota2 as suggested for dovecot 2: driver = mysql connect = host=localhost dbname=postfix user=postfix password=postfixadmin default_pass_scheme = MD5-CRYPT table = quota2 select_field = current where_field = path username_field = username my sql.conf i took it from tutorial on your wiki : LDA postfix postfixadmin: driver = mysql connect = host=localhost dbname=postfix user=postfix password=postfixadmin user_query = SELECT concat('/home/vmail/', maildir) as home, concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as mail, 1001 AS uid, 12 AS gid, concat('maildir:storage=', quota) AS quota FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active = '1' #user_query = SELECT maildir, 1001 AS uid, 1001 AS gid, CONCAT('dict:storage=',floor(quota/1000),' proxy::quota') as quota FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active='1' password_query = SELECT username as user, password, concat('/home/vmail/', maildir) as userdb_home, concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as userdb_mail, 1001 as userdb_uid, 12 as userdb_gid FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active = '1' The second user_query string i took from postfixadmin docs. But i dont know how to aply it. If it is better to use with mysql/postfixadmin and after this all i dont how to configure quota.conf (90-quota.conf): plugin { #quota = dirsize:User quota #quota = maildir:User quota #quota = dict:User quota::proxy::quota #quota = fs:User quota } # Multiple quota roots are also possible, for example this gives each user # their own 100MB quota and one shared 1GB quota within the domain: plugin { #quota = dict:user::proxy::quota #quota2 = dict:domain:%d:proxy::quota_domain #quota_rule = *:storage=102400 #quota2_rule = *:storage=1048576 } Please help me with configuration. I really stuck with this thing. And yes i've tried to find solutions on mailing list, but no luck. I want per domain/user quota in mysql. Also space usage to be shown in roundcube. Hope to get proper help ... And sorry... Thanks in advance.
