Hi, I am having trouble with the quota plugin with deliver. In the auth logs, I see that dovecot is able to get the attribute value just fine: *** Sep 21 17:49:30 dawnone dovecot: auth(default): ldap(cot,127.0.0.1): result: uid(user)=cot uidNumber(userdb_uid)=1011 gidNumber(userdb_gid)=1011 homeDirectory(userdb_home)=/home/cot mailQuotaSize(userdb_quota_rule=*:bytes=%$)=*:bytes=1000000 *** But the value defined in dovecot.conf does *not* get over written with the above value: *** 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda/lib10_quota_plugin.so 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: Quota root: name=User quota backend=maildir args= 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: Quota rule: root=User quota mailbox=* bytes=2500 messages=0 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: maildir: data=/home/cot/Maildir 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: maildir++: root=/home/cot/Maildir, index=, control=, inbox=/home/cot/Maildir 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: Namespace : Using permissions from /home/cot/Maildir: mode=0700 gid=-1 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: msgid=<2092295c098690fc157fca938d28b879.squirrel@dawnone>: save failed to INBOX: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: msgid=<2092295c098690fc157fca938d28b879.squirrel@dawnone>: rejected: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) 2010-09-21 17:49:37 deliver(cot): Info: msgid=<2092295c098690fc157fca938d28b879.squirrel@dawnone>: Return-Path missing, rejection reason: Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) *** My configuration files are as follows: **dovecot.conf** root@dawnone:~# dovecot -n # 1.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-3-686 i686 Debian squeeze/sid log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imap ssl: no disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir mbox_write_locks: fcntl dotlock lda: postmaster_address: dove@vmint mail_plugins: quota deliver_log_format: msgid=%m: %$ sendmail_path: /usr/lib/sendmail log_path: /var/log/ldaone info_log_path: /var/log/ldatwo debug: yes auth default: debug: yes passdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf userdb: driver: prefetch userdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf plugin: quota: maildir:User quota quota_rule: *:bytes=2500 **dovecot-ldap.conf** hosts = dawnone.vmint uris = ldap://dawnone.vmint dn = cn=admin,dc=vmint dnpass = debian auth_bind = yes ldap_version = 3 base = ou=People,dc=vmint scope = subtree user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,\ homeDirectory=userdb_home,uidNumber=userdb_uid,gidNumber=userdb_gid,mailQuotaSize=userdb_quota_rule=*:bytes=%$ user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uidNumber=uid,gidNumber=gid,mailQuotaSize=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$ Any help in this regard, appreciated.

[Dovecot] expire_tool trouble + howto part sasl from 1.1.7 -> 2.0.1?
by Igor Kowalski 21 Sep '10

21 Sep '10

Hello! Let me smuggle 2 questions in 1 email: 1) I upgraded from 1.1.7 to 2.0.1, but couldn't get it to work, because the 'dovecot + postfix sasl howto' doesn't seem to be updated and the old sasl settings are incompatible with new version. How do I set up sasl with dovecot2 ? Is there any updated howto available? 2) In dovecot 1.1.7: my expire_plugin seems to work fine, new entries are correctly added to the dictionary, but the messages don't actually get expunged. expire_tool says: dovecot --exec-mail ext /usr/lib/dovecot/expire-tool --test Info: maildir: data=~/Maildir Info: maildir++: root=/home/virtual/<domain>/<user>/Maildir, index=, control=, inbox=/home/virtual/<domain>/<user>/Maildir Info: <user>@<domain>/Trash: timestamp 1285005106 (Mon Sep 20 18:51:46 2010 ) -> 1290102903 (Mon Sep 20 18:51:46 2010 ) Info: <user2>@<domain>/Trash: stop, expire time in future: Sat Nov 6 18:33:12 2010 Messages are only updated in the dictionary, but nothing is ever expunged.

Because trash can be called wastebasket for example, and then it doesn't work. Spam can be called Junk, and again, it doesn't work. Any response to these queries would be greatly appreciated.

[Dovecot] MD5 to CRAM-MD5 password conversion?
by David Jonas 21 Sep '10

21 Sep '10

We have a plethora of accounts for which we would like to enable CRAM-MD5 but their passwords are stored as MD5 hashes. Is there anything we can do? Can we take a linux MD5 hashed password (e.g. $1$fac330ee$wd6Tll...) and convert it to dovecot's CRAM-MD5 format (e.g. {CRAM-MD5}b3f297...)? Thanks!

[Dovecot] understand the struct message_header_line
by Alex Baule 21 Sep '10

21 Sep '10

Timo... Using the src/lib-mail/test-istream-header-filter.c as example, and following your tips to jump my desired header value, but i need to store the value from the Header filtered. In the Exemple, the callback is this: static void filter_callback(struct message_header_line *hdr, bool *matched, void *context ATTR_UNUSED) { if (hdr != NULL && hdr->name_offset == 0) { /* drop first header */ *matched = TRUE; } } What i try to understand is how the structs work, it's save the entire header or every line from header call the callback function ? hdr->name_offset is the size of elements in the struct ? (like a array of message_header_line) The void *context ATTR_UNUSED i can pass what i want to change ? like a pointer to a variable ?

[Dovecot] tags disappear in Thunderbird
by Iv Ray 21 Sep '10

21 Sep '10

We have - Dovecot 1.0.15 (the default on Debian Lenny stable) Thunderbird 3.1.4 In our installation the Inbox is a mbox and the other folders are maildir. When we tag messages in Inbox, the tags disappear after a while. In the other folders they stay. I found two possible solutions suggested - 1. Set mbox_lazy_writes=no 2. Convert the Inbox to maildir What would be the best approach in your opinion? Would suggest not following the Debian Lenny stable version (1.0.15), but compiling the current stable Dovecot? Thank you very much, Iv

21 Sep '10

Hello - I am trying to migrate my dovecot installation from an older server running version 1.x to the latest 2.0.3 When I run configure --with-vpopmail, it bombs pretty quick as follows: ./configure --with-vpopmail checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no configure: error: vpopmail support is broken. fix it or access its db another way. however, vpopmail seems to be working fine, i can add domains from vpopmail/bin/vadddomain and they show up in the database just fine. So why do I receive this error and how can i troubleshoot? thank you very much in advance, Joe

[Dovecot] dovecot-2.0.3 - can not upload message, over quota
by LEVAI Daniel 20 Sep '10

20 Sep '10

Hi! I've upgraded to 2.0.3 from 1.2, and it is so far so good. I especially like the new doveadm tool. I have only one tiny problem: Every time I try to upload a message to the server (eg. to a 'Sent' folder, while sending a message), it fails with an error saying I'm over my quota. I'm using mutt, and this is the exact message I get in mutt: [OVERQUOTA] Quota exceeded (mailbox for user is full) Now this is not true, because dovecot-lda can save message to any of my folders, and doveadm says I have no quota (which is true): # doveadm quota get -u <user> Quota name Type Value Limit % User quota STORAGE 1075010 - 0 User quota MESSAGE 26750 - 0 Dovecot logs say nothing about this. Why is that error message then? (I must admit that I didn't try with another mail client.) I've tried to recalc the quota with doveadm but no luck. doveconf -n: # 2.0.3: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: OpenBSD 4.7 i386 default_internal_user = _dovecot default_login_user = _dovenull dict { expire = pgsql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf } info_log_path = /var/log/mail/dovecot.info listen = 127.0.0.1 log_path = /var/log/mail/dovecot.log mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir/ mail_plugins = quota expire passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } plugin { expire = sa.* 1 expire_dict = proxy::expire quota = maildir:User quota quota_rule = *:storage=100M quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+50M } protocols = pop3 imap userdb { driver = prefetch } userdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } protocol imap { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_quota } protocol pop3 { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } protocol lda { deliver_log_format = msgid=%m, from=%f, subject=%s: %$ mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve sendmail_path = /usr/local/sbin/sendmail } TIA, Daniel -- LÉVAI Dániel PGP key ID = 0x83B63A8F Key fingerprint = DBEC C66B A47A DFA2 792D 650C C69B BE4C 83B6 3A8F

[Dovecot] v2.0.3 released
by Timo Sirainen 20 Sep '10

20 Sep '10

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/dovecot-2.0.3.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/dovecot-2.0.3.tar.gz.sig * dovecot-lda: Removed use of non-standard Envelope-To: header as a default for -a. Set lda_original_recipient_header=Envelope-To to returns the old behavior. + Added support for reverse quota warnings (i.e. when quota goes back under the limit). This is enabled by adding '-' to beginning of quota_warning value. Based on patch by Jeroen Koekkoek. + dovecot-lda: Added lda_original_recipient_header setting, which is used for getting original recipient if -a isn't used. + dovecot-lda: Added -r parameter to specify final recipient address. (It may differ from original address for e.g. aliases.) + Maildir: uidlist file can now override message's GUID, making it possible for multiple messages in a mailbox to have the same GUID. This also fixes dsync's message conflict resolution. - dovecot-lda: If destination user isn't found, exit with EX_NOUSER, not EX_TEMPFAIL. - dsync: Fixed handling \Noselect mailboxes - Fixed an infinite loop introduced by v2.0.2's message parser changes. - Fixed a crash introduced by v2.0.2's istream-crlf changes.

[Dovecot] replace istream and unref the old one...
by Alex Baule 20 Sep '10

20 Sep '10

I Build a plugin, that do some stuffs with a email. To get the input istream, i use the "get_stream" function, like zlib does. I create a concat_stream, with the full_input[3]; struct istream *full_input[3]; //this like zlib input = imail->data.stream; //first input, using the input full_input[0] = i_stream_create_header_filter(input, HEADER_FILTER_EXCLUDE | HEADER_FILTER_NO_CR, exclude_headers, 1, filter_callback, imail); // second input from another file. full_input[1] = i_stream_create_fd(fd1, 0, TRUE); // finish the input full_input[2] = NULL; // recreating the stream imail->data.stream = i_stream_create_concat(full_input); //unref the old one. i_stream_unref(&input); return index_mail_init_stream(imail, hdr_size, body_size, stream_r); I do like zlib, but i got this errors in LOG.

[Dovecot] send HUP when rotating log?
by LEVAI Daniel 20 Sep '10

Hi! Is it necessary for Dovecot2 to send it a SIGHUP when I rotate its log files? I'm asking because then I must turn off the 'shutdown_clients' option, because then every user gets disconnected while rotating the logs.

[Dovecot] Change in delivery directory during 2.0.2->2.0.3 upgrade
by Jeffrey Rice 19 Sep '10

19 Sep '10

In upgrading from 2.0.2 to 2.0.3, Dovecot deliver has started putting new emails into user@host/.user@host/new instead of user@host/new. This change was reversed by downgrading to 2.0.2, so it's due to the minor version change. Has anyone else seen this? dovecot.conf follows: # 2.0.0: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.27.2-xenU i686 Debian 5.0.5 ext3 auth_mechanisms = plain cram-md5 login digest-md5 dotlock_use_excl = yes login_greeting = IMAP ready. mail_fsync = never mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%u passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.cnf driver = sql } plugin { auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master sieve_global_path = /home/vmail/sieve/global.sieve } service auth { unix_listener /var/run/dovecot/auth-master { group = vmail mode = 0600 user = vmail } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-auth-client { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } user = root } service imap-login { client_limit = 256 process_limit = 128 process_min_avail = 4 service_count = 0 user = dovecot } service imap { vsz_limit = 70 } service pop3-login { client_limit = 256 process_limit = 128 process_min_avail = 4 service_count = 0 user = dovecot } service pop3 { vsz_limit = 70 } ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/ssl/certs/dovecot_cert.pem ssl_cipher_list = ALL:!LOW ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/ssl/private/dovecot_key.pem userdb { driver = passwd } userdb { args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/home/vmail/%u driver = static } protocol imap { mail_plugin_dir = /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugins = } protocol lda { auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master info_log_path = /home/vmail/dovecot-deliver.log log_path = /home/vmail/dovecot-deliver.log mail_plugins = sieve postmaster_address = postmaster(a)finity.org } deliver is invoked in postfix's master.cf using: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient} -- Jeffrey Rice<jeffrice(a)finity.org>

[Dovecot] mbox vs maildir
by Jim Pazarena 18 Sep '10

18 Sep '10

I've had clients 'request' nested folders, and it would seem that maildir is designed with that ability while with mbox it is difficult and.or impossible to implement (nested can be achieved; but not nested AND populated in each nest level). My question is, is one format 'better' than the other? It would take a fair bit of time to convert my system to maildir and I would want to feel comfortable that this would be a true 'upgrade' in abilities, rather than simply a change to accommodate nested folders. Thanks,

[Dovecot] moving 1.2.13 system to another hard drive
by Paul Scott 18 Sep '10

18 Sep '10

Hi, I am not very experienced with Dovecot (1,2,13) installed on Debian sid. I have just set up a new system on a new hard drive on the same computer. fetchmail is correctly putting mail in /var/mail/<username>. I have copied my entire Maildir directory from the old hard drive. I have made what changes I understood to dovecot.conf. Dovecot was working on the other drive even though I'm not completely sure how I got it working before. Any ideas for debugging this certainly simple problem for some of you. TIA, Paul Scott

[Dovecot] Too stupid for sieve (former maildrop user)
by Dieter Knopf 18 Sep '10

18 Sep '10

Hello, I just migrated from Postfix/Courier/Maildrop to Postfix/Dovecot/Deliver/Sieve and don't unterstand the right syntax for sieve :( I searched and found many small examples and many links to the RFC, but nothing was usefull for me (or i didn't unterstand it) I installed the latest Dovecot-Sieve (hg). Examples from my maildrop config: # Filter FROM if($E =~ /name(a)domain1\.tld/) { to "$M/.Friends.Name1/" } # Filter FROM with OR if($E =~ /name1(a)domain1\.tld/ || $E =~ /name2(a)domain2\.tld/) { to "$M/.Friends.Name2/" } # Filter Mailinglists if (/^List-Id: .*<sylpheed\.sraoss\.jp>/) { to "$M/.ML.Sylpheed/" } # Filter FROM AND SUBJECT if($E =~ /fname(a)domain.tld/ && /^Subject: *foooooo/) { to "$M/.foo/" } # Filter TO if (hasaddr("name(a)domain.tld")) { to "$M/.foo/" } # Or something like this: if($E =~ /.*(a)facebookmail\.com/) { if (/^Subject: .*invited you to join the group/) { to "$M/.Facebook.Invites.Groups/" } if (/^Subject: .*invited you to the event/) { to "$M/.Facebook.Invites.Events/" } } $E was a shortcut for (adressmatching): ADDR=getaddr($MATCH) E=`echo $ADDR | sed 's/^M//'` $M was the path to the maildir, like /home/vmail/domain.tld/name Is that possible? Or is maildrop simple more powerful? Thank you :-) Dieter

[Dovecot] default ACL - in namespace's mail root directory ?
by Per Jessen 17 Sep '10

17 Sep '10

I have a namespace like this: namespace { type = private separator = / prefix = location = maildir:/var/ferrari/users/%d/%n:INDEX=/var/ferrari/indexes/3/4/%u:CONTROL=/var/ferrari/indexes/3/4/%u inbox = no list = yes subscriptions = yes } Where do I store "dovecot-acl" as the default ACL ? /Per Jessen, Zürich

Re: [Dovecot] dsync crash

Does this really work with IMAP clients? A namespace prefix must not start with hierarchy separator. My guess is that the crash happens because of it. I think I'll add code to give an error if it's tried.

[Dovecot] dsync to move from 1.2 to 2.0
by Daniel L. Miller 17 Sep '10

17 Sep '10

I'm not certain of the correct syntax for this - and I'm reluctant to risk my live data by experimenting. I've setup a 2.0.2 server on a virtual machine, and I want to copy a live account over to it for testing. Not that it should matter, but the 1.2 machine is using maildir and I want to give sdbox a try on 2.0.2. I'm assuming (dangerous, I know) I should run dsync on the new 2.0.2 machine, and connect remotely to the 1.2. If it matters, my usernames are complete mail addresses, i.e. myname(a)mydomain.com, and are stored as /var/mail/domain/name/Maildir. Does dsync perform an imap connection to the remote server to pull the mails? Or am I confusing this with imapsync? -- Daniel
