[Dovecot] feature request for dovecot 1.2 Master users/passwords for virtual domain admins
by Robert Schetterer 06 Nov '08

06 Nov '08

Hi Timo, currently superadmins can be configured in dovecot i.e in mysql as "superadmins" this means the can log in in any mailbox on the server this is a very nice feature in real world scenarios specially for support people in postfixadmin i.e there are also defined domainadmins ( this is for delegate usermail creation/delete etc in the postfixadmingui ) in mysql it would be nice to have or simply use postfixadmins mysql domainadmins in mysql table entries to login for domainadmins only login to mailboxes of their related maildomain this would be also massiv helpfull for postmasters/support people in a full virtual setup perhaps you might get this in dovecot 1.2 before closing at beta stage -- Best Regards MfG Robert Schetterer Germany/Munich/Bavaria

[Dovecot] How do I use plus-addressing in Dovecot 1.1.x?
by Jon Fullmer 06 Nov '08

06 Nov '08

I'm using Postfix, Amavisd-new/SpamAssassin, and Dovecot. They all run on the same server (running Linux). The mailboxes are stored on the same server in maildir format. The logical path for incoming messages (as I understand it) is: 1) received by Postfix; handed off to Amavisd-new 2) Amavisd-new checks to see whether or not it's spam/undesirable; hands off to Dovecot deliver 3) Dovecot deliver delivers the message to the local mailbox Under each of my user's mailbox is a submailbox called "spam". Just so I don't confuse terminologies (I'm no IMAP/maildir expert), for example, we have someone(a)domain.com. My configured mail_location is "maildir:/srv/mail/%d/%n", so this person's mailbox is located here: / srv/mail/domain.com/someone/ Within this directory is another mailbox: /srv/mail/domain.com/someone/.spam/ The plan is to have Dovecot deliver send a message (which has been labeled by Amavisd-new as spam) directly to the ".spam" submailbox, instead of the INBOX (/srv/mail/domain.com/someone/). With Dovecot 1.0.x, I used "plus addressing". Amavisd-new was configured so that, if a message was found to be spam, it delivered the message to Dovecot deliver, but changed the delivery address. Now, instead of "someone(a)domain.com ", it was "someone+spam(a)domain.com". Dovecot deliver took this message and delivered it correctly to the ".spam" submailbox (/srv/mail/ domain.com/someone/.spam/) Just to emphasize, this process does work (using Dovecot 1.0.x). With Dovecot 1.1.0, this process is broken. Now, spam messages are delivered to the INBOX instead, and, when checking the dovecot- deliver.log, I'm seeing "save failed to spam: Unknown namespace". As best as I can tell, the answer seems to lie in "namespaces" as a feature added in Dovecot 1.1.0. The problem is that I don't understand how I could use them to resolve this situation. I've read the documentation. I've looked at as many example configurations as I could find. Please help. I want to get this working again. I'm sure it's something very straight-forward, but I don't understand. How must I change my Dovecot 1.1.x configuration so that my "plus addressing" set up (detailed above) will work again? Or is there a better way? Thanks so much for your help, and thanks for a great product! - Jon

[Dovecot] Limit simultaneous pop3 login for users?
by Patrick MacDonald 05 Nov '08

05 Nov '08

Is there a way to limit simultaneous pop3 logins for users? Like for a user that has pop-every-minute running on two different computers from two different networks? If dovecot can't stop it, anyone know of a trick I could implement? Thanks in advance! Patrick

[Dovecot] mUTF-7 vs UTF-8 in mailbox names
by Timo Sirainen 05 Nov '08

05 Nov '08

(This is about v1.2 only, v1.1 will stay as it is.) Until today Dovecot didn't care about mailbox names. IMAP RFC requires them to be modified-UTF-7, but Dovecot didn't try to enforce it in any way. Mailbox names in Sieve scripts should be UTF-8, but currently Dovecot doesn't translate them to mUTF-7 as it should. Cyrus also did this until the latest release (v2.3.13). Now that I finally today wrote code to do mUTF-7 <-> UTF-8 conversion, Dovecot can finally do the right thing. But should there be an option to keep things backwards compatible? - IMAP: CREATE command requiring the mailbox name to be valid mUTF-7 is probably ok. Several other servers already verify that mailbox names are valid, so I doubt there are clients left anymore that don't send mUTF-7 names. - deliver -m assumes now that the mailbox name is UTF-8 and converts it to UTF-7. Should there be a -7 parameter that changes this behavior back? - Stephan's Dovecot Sieve also needs to be changed so that the mailbox name in fileinto commands can be UTF-8. If -7 parameter is added, it could control this behavior too. Also I'm wondering if in the future the mailbox names in filesystem should be converted to UTF-8. Probably not anytime soon though.. I also added imap_utf7 binary for doing mUTF-7 <-> UTF-8 conversion.

[Dovecot] Another dovecot-antispam plugin can't call dspam
by Rob Klingsten 05 Nov '08

05 Nov '08

Hi folks - I am configuring a new system and the antispam plugin is the last piece I need, everything else is working. Thanks to Johannes for this plugin, it's exactly what I want and an elegant solution for filter training. But I've been trying everything I can think of for the last 3 days to get this to work, no success. I've got: Postfix 2.5.3, dspam 3.8.0, Dovecot 1.1.6, Maildrop 2.0.4 and dovecot-antispam 1.0 tarball. I've built dspam from source with --disable-trusted-user-security to try and isolate the source of the plugin problem, which is the message at the IMAP client "Failed to call dspam." Here's what I've got configured for the plugin: antispam_signature = X-DSPAM-Signature antispam_trash = trash;Trash;Deleted Items;Deleted Messages antispam_spam = SPAM;Spam antispam_dspam_binary = /usr/local/bin/dspam antispam_dspam_args = --user %u And here's what happens: Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: plugin initialising (1.0-notgit) Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: "trash" is trash folder Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: "Trash" is trash folder Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: "Deleted Items" is trash folder Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: "Deleted Messages" is trash folder Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: "SPAM" is spam folder Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: "Spam" is spam folder Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: no unsure folders Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: dspam binary set to /usr/local/bin/dspam Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: dspam extra arg --user dump-capability Nov 5 09:31:29 venus imap: antispam: signature header line is "X-DSPAM-Signature" Nov 5 09:31:29 venus dovecot: Dovecot v1.1.6 starting up Nov 5 09:31:29 venus dovecot: auth-worker(default): mysql: Connected to 127.0.0.1 (postfix) Nov 5 09:31:30 venus dovecot: auth(default): new auth connection: pid=686 Nov 5 09:31:30 venus dovecot: auth(default): new auth connection: pid=687 Nov 5 09:31:30 venus dovecot: auth(default): new auth connection: pid=688 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=imap lip=xxxx rip=xxxx lport=143 rport=55904 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: auth(default): client out: CONT 1 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: auth(default): client in: CONT<hidden> Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: auth-worker(default): sql(rob(a)xxxx.org,xxxx): query: SELECT password, email AS user FROM users WHERE email = 'rob(a)xxxx.org'; Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: auth(default): client out: OK 1 user=rob(a)xxxx.org Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: auth(default): master in: REQUEST 1 688 1 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: auth(default): master out: USER 1 rob(a)xxxx.org uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/var/mail/xxxx.org/rob Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<rob(a)xxxx.org>, method=PLAIN, rip=xxxx, lip=xxxx Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: auth(default): new auth connection: pid=688 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: IMAP(rob(a)xxxx.org): Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: IMAP(rob(a)xxxx.org): Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap/lib90_antispam_plugin.so Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: IMAP(rob(a)xxxx.org): Effective uid=5000, gid=5000, home=/var/mail/xxxx.org/rob Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: plugin initialising (1.0-notgit) Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: "trash" is trash folder Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: "Trash" is trash folder Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: "Deleted Items" is trash folder Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: "Deleted Messages" is trash folder Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: "SPAM" is spam folder Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: "Spam" is spam folder Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: no unsure folders Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: dspam binary set to /usr/local/bin/dspam Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: dspam extra arg --user rob(a)xxxx.org Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: IMAP(rob(a)xxxx.org): maildir: data=/var/mail/xxxx.org/rob Nov 5 09:32:45 venus dovecot: IMAP(rob(a)xxxx.org): maildir++: root=/var/mail/xxxx.org/rob, index=, control=, inbox=/var/mail/xxxx.org/rob Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: signature header line is "X-DSPAM-Signature" Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: mailbox_is_unsure(Spam): 0 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: mailbox_is_trash(INBOX): 0 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: mailbox_is_trash(Spam): 0 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: mail copy: from trash: 0, to trash: 0 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: mailbox_is_spam(INBOX): 0 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: mailbox_is_spam(Spam): 1 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: mailbox_is_unsure(INBOX): 0 Nov 5 09:32:45 venus imap: antispam: mail copy: src spam: 0, dst spam: 1, src unsure: 0 Can anyone give me some more suggestions? thanks!

[Dovecot] MasterUser and old rev of Dovecot (0.99.14)
by Christopher Alexander 04 Nov '08

04 Nov '08

I need to migrate an old mail server running Dovecot (0.99.14) to a new server running Dovecot (1.0.7; as shipped with CentOS 5.2). My plan was to use the imapsync utility as this will "seamlessly" do the conversion from mbox to maildir between the boxes as well. I've got the MasterUser authentication working fine on the new host and was just about to start getting MasterUsers working on the old host. I noticed that the old .99 version dovecot.conf seems to have a mildly different syntax from 1.0 dovecot.conf. In particular a lot of the directives do not use braces and such. Is the .99 dovecot.conf file essentially able to deal with the same sort of syntax as outlined in the MasterUsers wiki page? [ http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers ] I just wanted to bounce this off you guys before I started messing with a live system. ;) Thanks in advance. -- Christopher Alexander UNIX Network Administrator Broadband Network Technologies Branch (VPNT), Research Network Systems (MRNS) Communications Research Centre [ http://www.crc.ca ] Government of Canada [ http://www.gc.ca ]

It's not clear from your response that you understand why it's failing. It would seem clear that postfix doesn't see this as a local domain. Instead, it thinks you're trying to relay to somewhere else. Check your virtual_mailbox_domains file (or database) and make sure it has an entry for the new domain.

Does the log show that the incoming messages are actually received? If not, it sounds like you're missing an MX record in DNS. If you are seeing the message come in, what does the log say it did with it? - Jon On Nov 2, 2008, at 1:45 PM, mailing wrote: > > I am using Postfix and /var/logs/mail.log does not have any errors > when > sending to lemcoe.com > > Thanks for quick response. > > On Sun, 2 Nov 2008 13:41:31 -0700, Jon Fullmer <jon(a)jonfullmer.com> > wrote: >> What are you using as your MTA (i.e., which server is listening for >> the incoming SMTP message)?

[Dovecot] Issue with domains
by David M Lemcoe Jr. 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

I am running Dovecot 1.0.10 and have it working great on ender.ath.cx (my free DynDNS.com subdomain), but recently I registered lemcoe.com and pointed it to the same IP address as ender.ath.cx. The problem is, only e-mail sent to the @ender.ath.cx works. If it is send it to @lemcoe.com, I don't know where it goes. I get no errors either. How can I get Dovecot to recognize both domains? TIA.

[Dovecot] v1.2.alpha1 released
by Timo Sirainen 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/alpha/dovecot-1.2.alpha1.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/1.2/alpha/dovecot-1.2.alpha1.tar.gz.sig This is the only v1.2.alpha announcement I'm going to send to dovecot-news list. Next announcement will be for either v1.2.beta1 or v1.2.rc1. I'm hoping that v1.2 stabilizes pretty soon. There are no huge changes like there were in 0.99->1.0 or 1.0->1.1, so most of the bugs are probably related to new features. I'm already running v1.2 myself and it's gone through heavy stress testing with my imaptest tool, so I'm expecting it to be stable enough for real world testing with not-all-that-important servers. It's safe to jump between v1.1 and v1.2 at any time or even have them concurrently accessing the same mailboxes. Dovecot v1.2 has a lot of new IMAP extensions implemented. The biggest change comes from CONDSTORE extension which adds a new concept of "modification sequences" (modseq for short). Each message has a modseq that increases whenever a flag is changed or when the message is expunged. The client can keep track of the highest seen modseq and request only changes done since the modseq. See QRESYNC (RFC 5162) for more information. Dovecot starts keeping track of the modseqs only when the first "CONDSTORE/QRESYNC enabling command" is executed. Before that no disk space is used for modseqs. When modseqs are enabled dovecot.index file uses 8 bytes per message more space. Other implemented IMAP extensions are: ESEARCH, SEARCHRES, WITHIN, ID and CONTEXT=SEARCH. Added thread indexes to optimize IMAP THREAD command. Only the first half of threading is currently optimized, the rest will hopefully follow later. Added a non-standard X-REFERENCES2 threading algorithm where threads are sorted by their latest message instead of the thread root message. There is also no base subject merging. This may be renamed and become part of SEARCH=INTHREAD extension some day. SEARCH=INTHREAD is still a draft, but the INTHREAD search key is already implemented by Dovecot v1.2. This is mostly useful with virtual mailboxes. Virtual mailboxes: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Virtual Then there are also some internal API changes which will make some things easier. For example lib-storage now allows handling multiple different users at the same time.

[Dovecot] pam_dovecotpw anybody?
by Steinar Bang 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

Samba has pam_smbpass which is a PAM module that hooks into password changing, and changes the users' samba password (presumably used for NTLM auth?), when the users change their ordinary unix/linux password. http://gitweb.samba.org/?p=samba.git;a=tree;f=source3/pam_smbpass;h=c230a1b… It shouldn't bee too hard to take the code from here, combine it with dovecotpw and create a PAM module that changes the dovecot password in a way that can be used for cram-md5. Ideally it should read the /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf (whereever it is), and find the path of the passwd-file and use that. Has anyone else looked into doing something like this?

[Dovecot] Backing Up
by Neil 02 Nov '08

What is the best way to do a (server-side) backup of all mail in a user's mail? I don't think I'm doing anything weird as far as configs go; here's dovecot -n if it helps: # 1.1.4: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf protocols: imaps listen: *, [::] ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/dovecot/cert.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/dovecot/key.pem login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_location: maildir:~/.maildir auth default: mechanisms: plain login passdb: driver: pam args: * userdb: driver: passwd socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix

[Dovecot] feature request for managesieve build from packager
by seriv＠parkheights.dyndns.org 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

Hi everybody, dovecot-1.2 alpha3 with cmusieve, libsieve and managesieve are available as rpm packages for Sisyphus repository (http://ftp.altlinux.org/pub/distributions/ALTLinux/Sisyphus, and specs/patches are available at http://git.altlinux.org/people/seriv/packages/?p=dovecot.git and http://git.altlinux.org/people/seriv/packages/?p=dovecot-sieve.git) Thank you very much Timo and Stephan! I have a feature-request for managesieve configure and Makefiles: they depend on dovecot sources as they are used for build process. I think it would be very nice to have not just --with-dovecot parameter in configure parameters, but also --with-dovecot-includes and --with-dovecot-libs. The same about cmusieve plugin: dovecot has --enable-header-install parameter, but installed headers are not sufficient for building cmusieve, I need install libraries and then modify cmusieve's Makefiles by running something like: --- for f in `find . -name Makefile` do mv -f $f $f.orig sed -e's/\$(dovecotdir)\/src$\/lib\/.*\.a$/\$(libdir)\/dovecot\/modules\1/g' \ < $f.orig > $f done --- before make in %build section. -- With best regards, Sergey Ivanov.

[Dovecot] imap processes eating IO
by Ryan Rawdon 02 Nov '08

02 Nov '08

[Ignore the previous e-mail, I somehow sent it when I was trying to paste from clipboard] I recently migrated my dovecot/postfix setup to a new machine. After doing so, I have encountered a problem where imap processes get stuck in a loop eating loads of IO on the machine. Looking at the trace (snippet below), it looks like they are sitting and reading the inbox and other folders of certain users repeatedly. This seems to be triggered by the delivery of a new e-mail to the user's mailbox while they have an IMAP client connected, though I cannot say for sure. This had never happened before on the old machine. I'm certain more information would be useful, please let me know what I can provide to help! Trace of process 22342 - imap lstat64("/home/vmail/u13.net/ryan/Maildir/cur/1203440140.P6242Q0M41485.scarecrow:2,RSc", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=3079, ...}) = 0

[Dovecot] antispam plugin problem
by Eugene 01 Nov '08

01 Nov '08

Hi people! (Especially Johannes, probably =) I recently switched to DSPAM + antispam plugin combination. Mostly I am happy but there is a problem with calling dspam-exec in order to relearn the messages. Moving messages to spam folder does not work, giving the error message 'Failed to call dspam' to client. I tried to add some debug output and here are the results: This is the output of debug("calling dspam: %s %s %s %s %s %s %s", argv[0], argv[1], argv[2], argv[3], argv[4], argv[5], argv[6]); (debugv(argv) does not produce any output for some reason) Oct 26 02:37:12 qqqqq imap: antispam: calling dspam: /usr/contrib/bin/dspam --source=error --class=spam --signature=490387db858421194018847 --user genie (null) This is the captured output of forked process Oct 26 02:37:12 qsar imap: antispam: dspam returned: ^APdata stack: Out of memory when allocating 1073741840 bytes If I understand correctly, this message is produced by dovecot before it should have launched dspam executable. I don't know why it needs 1GB of stack space for that. Changing dspam to dspamc does not help. Interestingly enough, launching 'sendmail' in mailtrain mode works ok. Do you have any ideas about what is wrong? Best wishes Eugene

[Dovecot] imap dump-capability fails Dovecot 1.1.6
by Thorsten Vollmer 31 Oct '08

Hi Timo, Dovecot fails to start after upgrading from 1.1.4 to 1.1.6: Fatal: userdb didn't return a home directory, but mail location used it (%h): %h/mail:CONTROL=%h/control:INDEX=%h/index Error: imap dump-capability process returned 89 Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf Adding a fake home directory to args in master-settings.c:get_imap_capability solved the problem for me, but there may be a more correct fix.
