Thx for your long post! ^_^ I understood that it was something like .<prefix><separator>folder1<separator>folder2 But, from my tests, it seems not to work as expected... At least not with thunderbird. By default, Tbird has "allow server to override namespaces" prefix=INBOX. and separator=. => no prefix and Trash system not working. prefix= and separator=. => INBOX. prefix (from tbird) and Trash system working. '/' in prefix and separator seems to be ignored (converted to '.'). I guess I will leave it to prefix= and separator=. but one user who uses apple mail complained about some prefix problems... Thx, JD

[Dovecot] unclear alias behaviour
by andel 26 Aug '08

26 Aug '08

Hi all In /etc/aliases I have set up an alias for "root" pointing to "david" which is a unix account. Other email accounts are virtual dovecot accounts, one of them is "andel". They all work fine using /etc/postfix/virtual when used with the domain name which is defined in /etc/postfix/virtual.domains. But the alias "david andel" in /etc/postfix/virtual does work only when sending to "david(a)domain.com" but not for the local mails sent to "root". And then there is another behaviour I don't understand. In my virtual mail folder /srv/vmail/domain.com dovecot made a new directory structure "david" which I didn't intend, for postfix should rewrite it to "andel". Where is the error? Thanks for any hints, David

[Dovecot] Custom Debian package bulding
by Juan Asensio Sánchez 26 Aug '08

26 Aug '08

Hi I am using Debian source packages from http://xi.rename-it.nl/debian/. When downloading dependencies, I have seen that the package requires MySQL, that I don't use. How could I remove this dependency or chanage them? Is that defined in any file? However, I would like to use SQLite or Postgres to store dict data for the Expire plugin. Where should I enable these flags? Thanks.

[Dovecot] LOCALSTATEDIR
by Radomir Zoltowski 25 Aug '08

Hi I'm doing a network install of Dovecot 1.1.2. All is fine apart from a little annoying mistake I've found: I do this: > ./configure --prefix=/appli/tools_Linux/dovecot/1.1.2 --localstatedir=/var && make && make install however, since the --localstatedir is equal to a default value, it is still being constructed as "PREFIX/var" for some reason and in effect produces binary with following strings being built-in: > strings dovecot | grep var /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/lib/dovecot /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/run/dovecot /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/lib/dovecot/ssl-parameters.dat /appli/tools/dovecot/1.1.2/var/lib/dovecot/ssl-parameters.dat var-expand.c var_expand_table_build So, the question is, is this a bug or my understanding wrong? I just need a network install, using local /var directiories for runtime data. Imagine that I have no write permissions to the installation (--prefix) folder. If you can reproduce it, this should be it, if you can't let me know to email you all the environment details.

[Dovecot] Override config in deliver command line
by dovecot＠iotti.biz 25 Aug '08

25 Aug '08

Hi all In dovecot deliver LDA, is there a way to override some configuration settings for particular users? Tha full story is: I have a simple postfix/dovecot setup. No virtual users, delivery is done in /home/mail/%u. For a specific user, I would like to deliver to a maildir. Since mail_location is not explicitly configured, I simply created ~/Maildir for that user, relying on the default automatic mailbox location procedure used by dovecot. But I would like to be able to override this setting: for example if I wanted to use a name different from Maildir, this trick would not be sufficient. So it would be nice to have some way to change mail_location (and why not, other config parameters) only for particular users (and for me, doing this on the command line would be good: something like Postfix where you can override config parameters simply writing the new settings in master.cf on the daemon's command line). I noticed the -c command line switch, but I would prefer not to have entirely different configuration files for my users, where a single change must be manually propagated on all the files. I use dovecot-1.0.15 on CentOS5. Maybe this question can be read as a feature request too. Thanks Luigi

[Dovecot] Errors with dovecot 1.1.2

25 Aug '08

Hello, i upgraded dovecot to 1.1.2 this weekend and i get those errors: grep dovecot /var/log/net/maillog |grep Panic | cut -d " " -f 11-100| sort | uniq -c | sort -rn 7368 file index-sync.c: line 39: assertion failed: (seq_range_exists(&ibox->recent_flags, uid)) 71 file index-mail.c: line 1091: assertion failed: (! mail->data.destroying_stream) 18 file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 590: assertion failed: (mails[idx].from_offset == start_offset) 5 file mbox-lock.c: line 675: assertion failed: (lock_type == F_RDLCK || mbox->mbox_lock_type != F_RDLCK) 3 file ostream-file.c: line 533: assertion failed: ((size_t)ret == total_size || !fstream->file) My setup is this: 3 servers, all Solaris, running dovecot, share home directiories via NFS, mbox format mailboxes in home directories. Indexes are separate in every server, not shared via NFS. About 20 000 users total. When old indexes (1.0.15) were present, mailboxes with UID validity problems did not fix themselves, but after i removed index directories in all machines, seems like it started to repair uid validity problems. The first panic seems to be tied to UID validity problems. Some locking problems may be, because i renamed index directory and created new while dovecot was running. -- Lauri Jesmin <lauri.jesmin(a)ut.ee> Tartu Ülikool

[Dovecot] namespaces...
by John Doe 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

Hi, I am new to dovecot and I am a bit confused with how namespaces/prefixes/separators are handled by the clients and dovecot... I tried to understand the desciption from the conf file but without success. With each conf I create the following path /f1/f2 on the client (thunderbird) and get the following on the dovecot server: PREFIX= and separator=/ => .INBOX.f1.f2 + .INBOXTrash PREFIX=INBOX/ and separator=/ => .f1.f2 and no Trash PREFIX=INBOX. and separator=. => .f1.f2 and no Trash Could someone point me to some IMAP for dummy web page...? ;D Or, what is the best conf able to handle most clients? Thx, JD

[Dovecot] Distributed indexes, maildir_copy_preserve_filename, and Microsoft
by Jack Stewart 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

Hi, I've just completed a migration from Courier to a Dovecot 1.0.7 (patched RHE 5) which is working great, except for this weirdness of an issue that is impacting a handful of users. My question is that will turning off maildir_copy_preserve_filename help or hurt in a situation where there are multiple servers with their own local INDEX files (uidlist is shared)? The problem is that a few users on a few versions of Microsoft Mail clients are not showing a few messages. They can see the messages just fine in webmail and other, more typical, E-mail clients. I know that the right solution is to upgrade to 1.1.2 and use shared indexes. The plan is to upgrade in a month or so. In my defense, this setup was not of my making, The two things issues that might have an impact are that we have shared (NFS) maildirs on multiple servers with their own local indexes and maildir_copy_preserve_file turned on. The uidlist (CONTROL) is shared and we have sticky connections turned on in our load balancer. The vast majority of clients do not have this issue. Quite frankly I have no idea these clients are ignoring the dovecot-uidlist. Would turning off maildir_copy_preserve_filename help with this setup? Another option might be easier is to delete the users INDEX and let the clients rebuild them. Since this is only a handful of users and we are migrating to 1.1.2 anyway, my preference is to make the bare minimum of changes to help address this problem. The changes need not be perfect nor anytime more than a suggestion or preference. I just want to make things better for a little while. Many thanks in advance. ---Jack P.S. The performance improvement is amazing - anywhere from 2X to 12X depending on what metrics you are looking at. It isn't an apples to apples comparison since we upgraded the servers as well but the "old" servers are pretty powerful beasts. -- Jack Stewart jstewart(a)caltech.edu / 626-395-4690 http://www.imss.caltech.edu

[Dovecot] Option to evaluate IMAP prefixes relative to $HOME, rather than the IMAP root?
by David McBride 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

Greetings, Is there a mechanism (or relatively small source-code change) which would cause Dovecot to evaluate IMAP prefixes relative to $HOME rather than the configured IMAP root? * * * Background: We're currently migrating from a WU-IMAP mailserver configuration which stores user mail in a global NFS-exported $HOME, and we've run into well-known issues handling client-specified IMAP prefixes. If a user specifies an IMAP prefix, Dovecot evaluates the path given relative to the IMAP root path specified in mail_location, rather than resolving it relative to the user's home directory as our old WU-IMAP installation would do. (For example: if a user has been keeping their mail in $HOME/foobar, and mail_location's folder path is set to %h/mail, then when that user comes to retrieve their mail with an IMAP prefix set to "~/foobar", then Dovecot will attempt to return the contents of the folder $HOME/mail/~/foobar -- which doesn't exist -- rather than $HOME/foobar.) At the moment, we have several hidden namespaces set up to support various common user-side variations -- "mail/", "Mail/", "~/Mail/", etc. -- each with a different custom mail_location string. Whilst this works for these common cases, it's fairly ugly, and results in extra empty directories appearing in users' $HOME. If there was some mechanism for telling Dovecot to evaluate IMAP prefixes relative to $HOME rather than the mail folder root specified in mail_location, that would provide us with a much neater and general-purpose solution. (I was hoping that setting full_filesystem_access=yes would do this, but it only relaxes the normal access permissions.) Cheers, David -- David McBride <dwm(a)tastycake.net>

[Dovecot] assertion failed
by CJ Keist 22 Aug '08

22 Aug '08

I haven't heard anything on this bug. Is this a bug? I'm using dovecot 1.1.2 with the following patch applied: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/rev/d674c05d725d Another section from my logs. I know the backtrace is just numbers, let me know how to compile to get more useful information if you need it. So far no one is beating down my door, so I don't think users are seeing any ill effects. But I would sleep better knowing why it's happening.
