[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.2.beta1 Backtrace POP3
by Steven King 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

I am testing out the new Dovecot 1.2.beta1 software. I am getting reports from people using POP3 that it randomly drops connections. Looking at the log file I see that the POP3 process they were connecting to panics and dumps a Raw bactrace. Below is a copy of the logs (IP addresses striped for security): dovecot: Feb 21 13:10:45 Info: auth(default): passwd-file(janna(a)jantics.com,x.x.x.x): lookup: user=janna(a)jantics.com file=/etc/postfix/passwd dovecot: Feb 21 13:10:45 Info: auth(default): master out: USER 3340 janna(a)jantics.com uid=1005 gid=102 home=/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n quota=maildir quota_rule=*:storage=100M quota_rule2=Trash:storage=50M dovecot: Feb 21 13:10:45 Panic: POP3(janna(a)jantics.com): Trying to allocate 0 bytes dovecot: Feb 21 13:10:45 Error: POP3(janna(a)jantics.com): Raw backtrace: pop3 [0x80d18fc] -> pop3 [0x80d195a] -> pop3 [0x80d125b] -> pop3 [0x80db683] -> pop3(i_malloc+0x15) [0x80d5ee5] -> pop3(client_create+0x503) [0x805c573] -> pop3(main+0x3ce) [0x805e00e] -> /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe0) [0xb7e39390] -> pop3 [0x805b7e1] dovecot: Feb 21 13:10:45 Error: child 26895 (pop3) killed with signal 6 dovecot: Feb 21 13:10:45 Info: pop3-login: Login: user=<janna(a)jantics.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=69.54.221.129, lip=x.x.x.x -- Steve King Network Engineer - Liquid Web, Inc.

[Dovecot] Maildir with INBOX and other folders at same level
by Seth Rhudy 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

Hello- I have set up Dovecot before and feel fairly comfortable with it but am having some issues with a new setup and have not been able to find a solution via Google or the list archives. I use offlineiimap to sync an IMAP account with an email provider. After the sync is complete, my ~/Maildir is set up with a folder called INBOX (with cur,new,tmp inside) and all my other folders set up at same level as INBOX (also with cur,new,tmp inside): ~/Maildir INBOX cur new tmp Otherfolder1 cur new tmp Otherfolder2 cur new tmp etc.. This email provider says that they use '/' as the IMAP folder separator so '.' can be used in folder names. Anyway, I am using Dovecot 1.0.15 on Debian Lenny and can't seem to get Dovecot to recognize this folder structure and display it in my MUA. In my dovecot.conf, I have: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir When I fire up my MUA it connects fine but does not display anything -- the INBOX is empty and the other folders are not there. I have tried various configurations with the namespace private {} section but without success. What am I missing? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

[Dovecot] Sendmail + Deliver as an LDA probs
by ben 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

Hi, I'm having trouble setting up sendmail to be able to use dovecot deliver as an LDA... I don't want to be able to deliver mail locally, everything should go via deliver (virtual user setup)... And i'm confused about all the procmail/lda entry's in different sendmail config files... When using $# deliver -u testuser < testmail <-- he delivers my mail in the correct mailbox as stated in my dovecot passdb file homedir. So deliver is working fine ! ---- I used the dovecot.m4 from wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/sendmail sendmail.mc fragment (only lines affecting Local delivery) : DOMAIN(`blaat')dnl MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`LOL', `-S')dnl FEATURE(`local_procmail')dnl define(`LOL_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/procmail')dnl define(`PROCMAIL_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/procmail')dnl dnl MAILER(`local')dnl MAILER(`smtp')dnl MAILER(`procmail')dnl MAILER(`dovecot')dnl dnl ------ blaat.m4 fragment : define(`LOCAL_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/procmail') define(`PROCMAIL_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/procmail') ------ more /usr/local/src/sendmail-x.x/cf/mailer/dovecot.m4 : ######################*****############## ### DOVECOT Mailer specification ### ##################*****################## Mdovecot, P=/opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/deliver, F=DFMPhnu9, S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromSMTP, R=EnvToSMTP/HdrFromSMTP, T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix, A=deliver -d $u ------- virtusertable/virtusertable.db : test(a)testdomain.com blaatuser --------- aliases/aliases.db : blaatuser | /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d $u ---- sendmail.cw = empty ----- mailertable/mailertable.db : testdomain.com dovecot:dovecot ################# When I run #$ sendmail -bv test(a)testdomain.com sendmail gives : test(a)testdomain.com... deliverable: mailer local, user test (as a matter of fact the user test does exist on my machine, so what he does is stripping of the domainname and he delivers the mail in /var/spool/mqueue/test :-/ ) And I don't see anything in my deliver logfile of course...

[Dovecot] location of temporary files in deliver
by Stuart Henderson 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

deliver has the following: -- -- -- /* After buffer grows larger than this, create a temporary file to /tmp where to read the mail. */ #define MAIL_MAX_MEMORY_BUFFER (1024*128) ... static struct istream *create_raw_stream(int fd, time_t *mtime_r) ... input = i_stream_create_seekable(input_list, MAIL_MAX_MEMORY_BUFFER, "/tmp/dovecot.deliver."); -- -- -- On most of my systems, /tmp is relatively small (a few hundred MB, and sometimes on ramdisk), and I like to use /var/tmp for larger temp space. I just had a problem where I exceeded the space available in /tmp while delivering a (multi recipient) message and had to modify the above line to use an alternative location, and recompile. Would it be appropriate to make this a configurable option instead? Thanks.

[Dovecot] How many namespaces for several groups of shared mailboxes ?
by Thomas Hummel 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

Hello Timo, let's say you want to implement several distinct groups of shared mailboxes via one (several) public namespace(s) with dovecot-1.1.x/Maildir. For instance, team1, team2 and team3 work on different projects (project1, project2, project3). Obviously, as many public namespaces (#team1, #team2, #team3) would do the trick, but then, any user (including users who don't belong to any above team) would 'see' useless non-selectionable folders #team*. So my idea would be to create only one public namespace (#Public) into which I'd store directories team1, team2, team3, into which I'd put the needed shared mailboxes. Something like /courriel/boites/public/team1/.shared-project1/ /team2/.shared-project2/ /team3/.shared-project3/ with something like namespace public { separator = / prefix = '#Public/' location = maildir:/courriel/boites/public inbox = no hidden = no list = yes subscriptions = yes } I guess if unix right and ACL are set up correctly, other people would only see non-selectionable '#Public'. The only problem is the subscription file : my understanding is that you have only one subscription file per namespace. Maybe unless you specify something like location = maildir:/courriel/boites/public:CONTROL=<some user dependent location> But wouldn't that induce another problem : such a CONTROL directive would put dovecot-uidlist and dovecot-keywords in the same user dependent location. As I want to share the \Seen flag, I have to . put a dovecot-shared file . not specify INDEX (or at least, not to some user dependent location) So I would end up with . uid lists in some user dependant location (as a side effect of having several subscriptions files) . but indexes shared as uid is listed in index : wouldn't that be a problem ? thanks -- Thomas Hummel | Institut Pasteur <hummel(a)pasteur.fr> | Pôle informatique - systèmes et réseau

[Dovecot] Quota not reporting with getquotaroot
by dovecot＠corwyn.net 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

I'm running squirrelmail on top of dovecot, and noticed that some of my users display the quota (using the squirrelmail plugin check_quota) and some don't. So I did some digging. For those that do not display the quota, their account also doesn't provide any data with: . getquotaroot inbox * QUOTAROOT "inbox" . OK Getquotaroot completed. When I check the account /Maildir folder it has info in maildirsize 0S 12744423 10 334 1 483685 1 and when I delete the maildirsize file it recreates. any ideas? thx.

[Dovecot] Different protocols with different auth-types
by Morton.Trust 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

Hello, I have installed dovecot with MySQL in which the users are stored. Now I want to separate IMAP-Users from POP3-Users. So I added two columns to the user table (imap / pop3) which indicates, whether the user has access to IMAP or not. In order to get dovecot recognizing this separation I put the auth-config into the two protocol-sections and wrote two different dovecot-sql.conf-files. In the dovecot-sql-pop3.conf the query searches for pop3=1 and in the dovecot-sql-imap.conf it searches for imap=1. Done that, I expected POP3-Only-Users getting an error while trying to connect to the IMAP-service. But dovecot first tries to authenticate for IMAP and then uses the POP3-auth as fallback. How can I do this separation? Thanks a lot, Morton -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Different-protocols-with-different-auth-types-tp22085… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] ACL plugin when file in Maildir is not a directory
by Thomas Hummel 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

Hello Timo, On a production (by that I mean many users) dovecot-1.1.8/Maidir server where ACL plugin has been enabled, I ran on a log verbosity problem : For some reason (in fact, due to mbox -> Maildir migration script), some people have in their Maildir a .procmail.logfile file. The problem is that dovecot (or the ACL plugin) wants to find a dovecot-acl file in what it would like to be a directory, and then complains : dovecot: IMAP(xxxxxxxx): open(/courriel/boites/xxxxxxxx/.procmail.logfile/dovecot-acl) failed: Not a directory Such a behavior makes the log file grow too much too quickly. Note that my setup regarding log verbosity is at its minimal/default (except for proctitle) : verbose_ssl = no verbose_proctitle = yes auth_verbose = no mail_debug = no auth_debug = no auth_debug_passwords = no One more thing : would I have a log (or in what verbosity setup would I have one) line complaining about no-acl in the system wide acl directory : acl = vfile:/opt/dovecot/dovecot-acls:cache_secs=300 as a matter of fact, /opt/dovecot/dovecot-acls is empty for me (I don't need it for now). thanks -- Thomas Hummel | Institut Pasteur <hummel(a)pasteur.fr> | Pôle informatique - systèmes et réseau

[Dovecot] v1.2 can't set ACL to empty string
by Sascha Wilde 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

Hi *, according to RfC4314 the rights argument to the setacl command might be an empty string ("zero right characters"): The third argument is a string containing an optional plus ("+") or minus ("-") prefix, followed by zero or more rights characters. existing clients (horde in particular) actually use this to remove all rights from an user. Currently dovecot 1.2 does not accept an empty rights string as argument to setacl. Bernhard Herzog will look into this. cheers sascha -- Sascha Wilde OpenPGP key: 4BB86568 http://www.intevation.de/~wilde/ http://www.intevation.de/ Intevation GmbH, Neuer Graben 17, 49074 Osnabrück; AG Osnabrück, HR B 18998 Geschäftsführer: Frank Koormann, Bernhard Reiter, Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner

[Dovecot] Autocreate plugin
by Harry Lachanas 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

I've tried to use the autocreate plugin in order to autosubscribe users to public namespaces. namespace public { prefix = Public2/ separator = / location = maildir:/var/Public2:INDEX=~/Maildir/p-idx:CONTROL=~/Maildir/p-crtl hidden=no subscriptions=no inbox = no list=no } with plugin { autocreate = Spam autosubscribe = Spam autosubscribe1 = Public2/News autosubscribe2 = Public2/Shorewall } the plugin works alright with the Spam maildir, but not with the namespaces. Is this possible ??? Thanks Harry.

[Dovecot] Effects of going read-only on dovecot & pop/imap clients
by Mark Zealey 19 Feb '09

19 Feb '09

Hi all, We need to set our filestore to read-only for quite a while, and I want to mitigate the effects for our clients. First issue; dovecot. If we just change the nfs mounts to read-only, dovecot complains: 2009-02-19T14:03:19+00:00 mail2 dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<test2(a)markandruth.co.uk>, method=PLAIN, rip=10.15.10.95, lip=10.15.10.102:11002 2009-02-19T14:03:19+00:00 mail2 dovecot: POP3(test2(a)markandruth.co.uk): open() failed with file /var/spool/mail/supplier_2/ma/rk/an/markandruth.co.uk/te/st/2_/test2/Mai ldir/dovecot.index.log: Read-only file system 2009-02-19T14:03:19+00:00 mail2 dovecot: POP3(test2(a)markandruth.co.uk): open(/var/spool/mail/supplier_2/ma/rk/an/markandruth.co.uk/te/st/2_/test 2/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: Read-only file system 2009-02-19T14:03:19+00:00 mail2 dovecot: POP3(test2(a)markandruth.co.uk): file_dotlock_create(/var/spool/mail/supplier_2/ma/rk/an/markandruth.co.u k/te/st/2_/test2/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist) failed: Read-only file system 2009-02-19T14:03:19+00:00 mail2 dovecot: POP3(test2(a)markandruth.co.uk): Couldn't init INBOX: Internal error occurred.

Is there any way to make dovecot just do as much as it can under the circumstances ie allow read access to mails? Also, has anyone got experience of how clients handle mailboxes being read-only? My guess is that pop clients would probably break and download the same messages over and over?

[Dovecot] limiting authentication failures
by Eric B. Schorvitz, Ph.D. 19 Feb '09

19 Feb '09

In my log files I occasionally get a huge number of Dovecot authentication failures (see clip below). I wanted to know if there's a way to limit the number of times an IP address can attempt to authenticate, if there's a way to have a timeout between attempted authentications, or if there is a way to limit authentication attempts by a specific username within a certain period of time. My current solution is to permanently block the specific IP, an IP range, or an entire country from accessing my server AFTER I notice the huge number of authentication failures. This is too ad-hoc a process and was hoping dovecot has something more proactive built in. Thank you in advance for spending time considering this inquiry, Eric --------------------- pam_unix Begin ------------------------ dovecot: Authentication Failures: rhost=::ffff:200.111.39.219 : 764 Time(s) root: 25 Time(s) mysql: 6 Time(s) smmsp: 6 Time(s) --SNIP-- Unknown Entries: check pass; user unknown: 764 Time(s) ---------------------- pam_unix End ------------------------- --------------------- Connections (secure-log) Begin ------------------------ **Unmatched Entries** dovecot-auth: pam_succeed_if(dovecot:auth): error retrieving information about user info dovecot-auth: pam_succeed_if(dovecot:auth): error retrieving information about user info dovecot-auth: pam_succeed_if(dovecot:auth): error retrieving information about user info dovecot-auth: pam_succeed_if(dovecot:auth): error retrieving information about user info --SNIP--

[Dovecot] sieve filters
by Ian P. Christian 19 Feb '09

19 Feb '09

Hi all, I'm trying to figure out a way of filtering mail from a commercial anti-spam platform. Unfortunately you need to compare part of one header against part of another header. I figured I could solve this using sieve variables and pattern matching, however I'm having little luck and don't know how to debug sieve issues. # example headers: must compare 0.00799 against 1:0000 (the 2nd number in the 2nd header) # X-pstn-levels: (S: 0.00799/98.42547 CV:99.9000 FC:95.5390 LC:95.5390 R:95.9108 P:95.9108 M:97.0282 C:98.6951 ) # X-pstn-settings: 3 (1.0000:1.0000) s cv gt3 gt2 gt1 r p m c if header :matches "X-pstn-levels" "(S: */*" { set "score" "${1}"; if header :matches "X-pstn-settings" " ? (*:*) *" { fileinto "somewhere"; } } The first if appears to match, as if I move the fileinto up there it works - however it doesn't work as it shown here. Can anyone suggest why? Can I achieve what I'm trying to do with sieve? How can I go about debugging scripts? Thanks, Ian

[Dovecot] kerberos trying to obtain credentials for wrong machine
by Nikolay Shopik 19 Feb '09

19 Feb '09

Hi, I'm currently trying to configure Dovecot to use kerberos. My KDC is Windows 2003 and I successful generated keytab file for Dovecot machine. Problem is when I'm trying to use GSSAPI it told me Obtaining credentials for imap@debian5 - and of course this fails because debian5 isn't KDC, it should look for imap/debian5.inblock.local(a)INBLOCK.LOCAL. What I'm missing?

[Dovecot] Time moved backwards ....
by Harry Lachanas 18 Feb '09

18 Feb '09

OK.. So I synced the clock.... and got .... dovecot: Time just moved backwards by 1 seconds. I'll sleep now until we're back in present. http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards ( The first time I did this the clock moved backwards 2 hours after a timezone change and dovecot suicided ) I think I understand the concept ... However a mail server should probably be synchronized to the local time ..... Suggestions ...??? Harry.
