[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.0.beta5: dovecot-uidlist: Duplicate file entry at line X
by Chris Laif 31 May '10

31 May '10

Hi, I'm using dovecot 2.0.beta5 (IMAP and LMTP+sieve) and I'm getting lots of errors like this: Warning: /data/mail/4567/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist: Duplicate file entry at line 3: 1274182284.M635158P16414.mail,S=767,W=785:2,S (uid 5 -> 16) All data is stored on local disk (ext3, no NFS!). As this is a fresh installation of dovecot I do not know if older versions work better. One user complained about loosing email from inbox but I guess that's probably a user error :) I think that the error might be related to deliveries via LMTP as this (new) functionality has not been tested extensivly (?)

[Dovecot] cur folder e-mails are not shown...

Hi All! I realized that I have only e-mails from last 13 days. I see that I have lots more in the cur folder inside my Maildir folder. The problem is that I cannot see them.

[Dovecot] 1.2.11, mbox, new mail
by Stan Hoeppner 31 May '10

31 May '10

With 1.2.11 and mbox storage, the delay time in pulling new mail headers to the client from imap folders seems to be directly proportional to mailbox size, regardless of the number of new messages. At present, if the mailbox is large, pulling new headers is rather painfully slow. Is this expected behavior? Especially given that the client already has all the "old" mails in the folder cached, and thus wouldn't be asking for them? Is there a setting(s) I can change to optimize/fix this? -- Stan

[Dovecot] strange sieve situation
by Andy Dills 31 May '10

31 May '10

Hi there, I've been working on rolling out the "deliver" service so we can implement sieve. Dovecot 1.2.11, Postfix 2.6.6, FreeBSD 8, installed by ports. Clustered environment, NFS backend. Everything is working great for the most part, I'm using it to sort a copy of my personal email on a test server. However, I noticed two emails were not properly sorted. I had added a rule (using Ingo, nice little piece of software) to redirect the nightly FreeBSD security output emails into a folder "servers". However, nothing had triggered that rule, and the "Maildir/.servers" directory had not yet been created. Then, three of the "security outputs" came in at one time: May 29 03:01:48 mg8 dovecot: deliver(andytest(a)xecu.net): sieve: msgid=<20100529070108.F2F0B7F5D4(a)mail-out04.xecu.net>: failed to store into mailbox 'servers': Mailbox already exists May 29 03:01:48 mg8 dovecot: deliver(andytest(a)xecu.net): sieve: msgid=<20100529070109.D8F5E159913(a)mail-out01.xecu.net>: failed to store into mailbox 'servers': Mailbox already exists May 29 03:01:48 mg8 dovecot: deliver(andytest(a)xecu.net): sieve: msgid=<20100529070109.D8F5E159913(a)mail-out01.xecu.net>: stored mail into mailbox 'INBOX' May 29 03:01:48 mg8 dovecot: deliver(andytest(a)xecu.net): sieve: execution of script /mail/var/mail2/xecunet/andytest.xecu.net//.dovecot.sieve failed, but implicit keep was successful May 29 03:01:48 mg8 dovecot: deliver(andytest(a)xecu.net): sieve: msgid=<20100529070110.17A781B53B9(a)mail-out02.xecu.net>: stored mail into mailbox 'servers' May 29 03:01:48 mg8 dovecot: deliver(andytest(a)xecu.net): sieve: msgid=<20100529070108.F2F0B7F5D4(a)mail-out04.xecu.net>: stored mail into mailbox 'INBOX' May 29 03:01:48 mg8 dovecot: deliver(andytest(a)xecu.net): sieve: execution of script /mail/var/mail2/xecunet/andytest.xecu.net//.dovecot.sieve failed, but implicit keep was successful That's the order they appeared in my logfile. I'm assuming they were all sent to deliver at the same time, they all thought they needed to make the directory, the one with msgid 20100529070110.17A781B53B9(a)mail-out02.xecu.net was able to make the directory and get delivered, whereas the other two freaked out because they couldn't make the directory they thought needed to be made, and just sent the mail to the inbox. That's a reasonable approach, although I wonder if deliver/sieve could be (or perhaps "has been in 2.0") adjusted to more intelligently handle that edge case. Also, I'm wondering about "dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1". I have that set in my main.cf, but I'm not 100% positive it's taking effect. # grep dovecot /usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1 virtual_transport = dovecot # grep dovecot /usr/local/etc/postfix/master.cf dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=mailman argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient} # postconf | grep dovecot smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot virtual_transport = dovecot # postconf | grep destination_recipient_limit default_destination_recipient_limit = 50 lmtp_destination_recipient_limit = $default_destination_recipient_limit local_destination_recipient_limit = 1 relay_destination_recipient_limit = $default_destination_recipient_limit smtp_destination_recipient_limit = $default_destination_recipient_limit virtual_destination_recipient_limit = $default_destination_recipient_limit Is "dovecot_destination_recipient_limit" being converted into local_ ?

[Dovecot] Unresolved client rejection
by Greg Pearson 31 May '10

31 May '10

Hi, would it be possible to prevent users who try to login from an unresolved IP from connecting to Dovecot IMAP? I have a suspicion that it should be done via the authentication module (ie PAM) but I am not sure (if this is the case could someone recommend a good resource or even a solution). For example sendmail has a relevant macro to achieve this, I was wondering if Dovecot can have similar behavior. Thanks

[Dovecot] imap folder aliases for different mail clients naming convention
by Robert Schetterer 31 May '10

31 May '10

Hi, sorry if this was asked before and/or if there is allready a solution different imap mail clients, have different imap folder naming conventions typical by sent , trash, spam i normally use thunderbird conventions, as its working on all major plattforms and configure hord/imp , squirrelmail to use it like thunderbird does, additional i use autocreate with this folders it would be nice to alias other mail clients naming conventions to TB folder naming conventions without poke around with i.e symlinks etc, i guess there might be some solution with namespaces but i hope i could be done more easy eventually with a alias plugin etc? -- Best Regards MfG Robert Schetterer Germany/Munich/Bavaria

Hello, recently I inspected the sourcecode of the lmtp server. I searched for changes that would add return-path header.

( dovecot2/srv/lmtp/commands.c ~line 695 ) has somebody experiences while delivering huge ammount of mail via dovecot2 lmtp service? - is it faster/slower/comaparable with deliver? - it's hard to believe, that nobody realy misses the return-path header Thanks, Andreas -- Andreas Schulze Internetdienste | P532 DATEV eG 90329 Nürnberg | Telefon +49 911 319-0 | Telefax +49 911 319-3196 E-Mail info @datev.de | Internet www.datev.de Sitz: 90429 Nürnberg, Paumgartnerstr. 6-14 | Registergericht Nürnberg, GenReg Nr.70 Vorstand Prof. Dieter Kempf (Vorsitzender) Dipl.-Kfm.

[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2 - Quotas - Ignoring Trash folder
by Shayne Jellesma 30 May '10

30 May '10

Hello guys, Firstly I would like to state that I am fairly new to Dovecot. I have played around with it in the past here and there but mainly with debian packages. I have compiled this version of Dovecot from source, so please go easy with me. Ok now down to my questions: I am having trouble getting Dovecot to 'ignore' the Trash folder when summing up the used quota for a user. I am running Dovecot 1.2.11 (with LDA), Postfix 2.5.5, and Postfixadmin 2.3. I am able to send and receive emails fine. Roundcube displays the quota used but this quota also counts what is in the users Trash can. Postfix is configured to hand over delivering of the mail to Dovecot. I have tried different methods from the documentation on ignoring the Trash folder, but have not come up with anything that has worked yet. If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great. I apologise now if I have not included all required information, I did read the mailing list guidelines and believe I have follow all required steps. charged:/usr/local/etc# dovecot --version 1.2.11 charged:/usr/local/etc# charged:/usr/local/etc# dovecot -n # 1.2.11: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 i686 Debian 5.0.4 ext3 base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ log_path: /var/log/dovecot12.log info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot12.log protocols: imap imaps pop3 pop3s listen: 118.127.29.214 disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login first_valid_uid: 5000 last_valid_uid: 5000 first_valid_gid: 5000 last_valid_gid: 5000 mail_privileged_group: vmail mail_uid: 5000 mail_gid: 5000 mail_location: maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir mail_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugins(default): quota imap_quota mail_plugins(imap): quota imap_quota mail_plugins(pop3): quota mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/pop3 namespace: type: private separator: . inbox: yes list: yes subscriptions: yes lda: postmaster_address: postmaster(a)ignitioncarclub.com mail_plugins: quota mail_plugin_dir: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/lda quota_full_tempfail: no auth_socket_path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master auth default: mechanisms: plain login passdb: driver: sql args: /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf userdb: driver: sql args: /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 384 user: vmail plugin: quota: maildir:ignore=Trash trash: /usr/local/etc/dovecot-trash.conf charged:/usr/local/etc# charged:/usr/local/etc# grep -v '^ *$#.*$\?$' dovecot-sql.conf driver = mysql connect = host=localhost dbname=xxx user=mailuser password=xxx default_pass_scheme = MD5-CRYPT user_query = SELECT maildir, 5000 AS uid, 5000 AS gid, CONCAT('*:storage=', quota, 'B') AS quota_rule FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active = '1' password_query = SELECT username as user, password, '/var/vmail/%d/%n' as userdb_home, 'maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n' as userdb_mail, 5000 as userdb_uid, 5000 as userdb_gid FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active = '1' charged:/usr/local/etc# charged:/usr/local/etc# dpkg -l | grep postfix ii postfix 2.5.5-1.1 High-performance mail transport agent ii postfix-mysql 2.5.5-1.1 MySQL map support for Postfix charged:/usr/local/etc# Regards, Shayne Jellesma Network Administrator / ICT Support St Martins Lutheran College Web: <http://www.stmartins.sa.edu.au> http://www.stmartins.sa.edu.au Phone: (08) 87 251 430 Skype: shayne.jellesma.smlc

[Dovecot] Problems with Outlook clients after a migration
by Joseba Torre 28 May '10

28 May '10

Hi, I'm doing the final tests before I migrate my 10000 users from RHEL 4 + dovecot 1.1.20 to RHEL5 + dovecot 1.2.11, and I'm having some serious problems with outlook 2007 clients disconnecting very often. In dovecot's log I see lot of connects and disconnects from these clients (as oposed to my kmail, that just connects once when I come in and disconnects when I shut it off). After unchecking the "chek every X minutes" thing in outlook I get fewer of those -while functionality remains-, but the main problem still persists: every now and then (more or less 30 mins), the client disconnects, and sometimes the client goes offline. This didn't happen with my previous setup. I use the outlook-idle workaround, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. Any ideas?

[Dovecot] Over quota
by James Devine 28 May '10

28 May '10

Is there any way to still be able to login/delete email via dovecot-imap when the user's filesystem quota is exceeded? We just moved from courier where this was still possible but now a user over quota can login but cannot get a list of messages and the logs show this: May 27 10:24:45 pop1.gwtc.net dovecot: POP3(cody(a)howaboutnow.net) [64.251.165.209]: write(/home/co/cody/Maildir/dovecot-uidvalidity) failed: Disk quota exce eded May 27 10:24:45 pop1.gwtc.net dovecot: POP3(cody(a)howaboutnow.net) [64.251.165.209]: o_stream_send(/home/co/cody/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.tmp) failed: Disk qu ota exceeded May 27 10:24:45 pop1.gwtc.net dovecot: POP3(cody(a)howaboutnow.net) [64.251.165.209]: Couldn't init INBOX: Internal error occurred.

[Dovecot] Cannot Access Inbox
by robertober 27 May '10

27 May '10

Hello Folks, Yesterday while messing around with procmail for SpamAssassin I had my IMAP client open and it lost it's ability to see my Inbox except for two messages. I tried another IMAP client and no success. I can see all other directories such as sent and the ones I have made. The mbox file is there and catable/grepable. I even made a new one. I can read a test account Inbox from the same server with my usual client. Also my small number of other users appear to be using pop3 as normal. Tried so far: * Multiple clients including pop3. * Removed spamd and procmail stuff. * Various permissions. * New mbox. * Restart everything, although I am not sure I rebooted the server last night. * Searched for lock files that may need to be deleted. * Googled. Server setup: * Mandriva Linux 2009.1 * Dovecot 1.1.13 * Postfix 2.5.6 The mailbox in question is my business and some personal email so I would greatly appreciate any help towards fixing this issue. I am self-employed and largely out of business without my email. Thanks, Robert A. Ober

[Dovecot] symlinking maildirs
by Phil Howard 27 May '10

27 May '10

I have some emails that I think are in the Postfix delivery queue going to Dovecot, but didn't get mapped to their alias (because I didn't have all the alias entries in when they were queued). I'm wondering if this trick would work. I have the mail being delivered to /home/mail/%Ld/%Ln/mail and am wondering if I could make a symlink at /home/mail/example.com/foo -> bar and add a dummy password for foo(a)example.com and have that mail trying to go to foo(a)example.com really go to bar@example and make a successful delivery (it is soft bouncing right now).

[Dovecot] SQL Server
by Bryan Vyhmeister 27 May '10

27 May '10

Is there any support for using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or 2008 as the SQL database for users? Although I would prefer to do it other ways, the company I work for has all of their virtual hosting authentication tied into a SQL Server. Any ideas? Thank you. Bryan

[Dovecot] Dovecot access imap folder via POP3
by Vincze Janos Istvan 27 May '10

27 May '10

Dear All, I use postfix and dovecot (1.1.11) combo with maildir format. I would have a question about dovecot config. Can I confiugre dovecot to download mails from IMAP folders via POP3? Now, mails can be downloaded only from .INBOX. My dovecot.conf file: .... mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. #location = mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir inbox = yes #hidden = yes } mail_privileged_group = mail .... Thank you for any help, Janos, Vincze
