[Dovecot] Index corruption with squirrelmail.
by "Fábio M. Catunda" 03 Mar '08

03 Mar '08

Hi. I don't know if the problem is related with squirrelmail or not, but I started to have index corruption when I started to try squirrelmail. Some informaton about my instalation: dovecot 1.0.5-1 debian package with maildir squirrelmail 1.4.9a-2 debian package Some log information: dovecot: 2008-02-27 08:39:39 Warning: IMAP(<please don't send spam to me>): fscking index file /var/virtual/contactnet.com.br/fcatunda/Maildir/dovecot.index dovecot: 2008-02-27 08:39:39 Error: IMAP(<please don't send spam to me>): Unexpected transaction log desync with index /var/virtual/contactnet.com.br/fcatunda/Maildir/dovecot.index I'm not pretty sure, but it looks like that if I keep my thunderbird open, receive a message and a rule move the message from INBOX to some other folder and then, finally, I try to login in squirrelmail I reveive a message like this: Query: EXPUNGE And in my log file the above message appears. I already deleted dovecot.* files, but the error ocurred again. Any suggestion? Thanks!

[Dovecot] ManageSieve v0.10.1 released for Dovecot 1.1.rc1
by Stephan Bosch 02 Mar '08

02 Mar '08

Hello Dovecot users, I found a few annoying bugs in the ManageSieve implementation. Particularly, v0.10.0 can pollute the tmp directory of the sieve_storage directory with useless compiled script files. Change Log v0.10.1 ------------------- * Fixed bug introduced in v0.10.0: compiled scripts were also written to disk in the sieve/tmp directory and left there. This accumulates much .sievec junk in that directory over time. * Fixed bug in tmp file generation for sieve-storage: errors other than EEXIST would cause the daemon to sleep() loop indefinitely. + Improved log lines to be more recognizable as being generated from managesieve. + Added short proxy configuration explanation to the README file + Added 'Known Issues' section to the README file - Fixed assert bug in sieve-storage occuring when save is canceled. (Last 5 changes were also back ported to new v9.2 ManageSieve version for dovecot-1.0.10, available at http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.0/) Installation ------------ The short description I provided in my previous mail is still valid: http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2008-February/028708.html New release: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.1/dovecot-1.1-managesieve-0.10.1.tar.gz http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.1/dovecot-1.1-managesieve-0.10.1.tar.gz.s… Latest patch version is still valid: http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.1/dovecot-1.1.rc1-managesieve-0.10.0.diff… http://www.rename-it.nl/dovecot/1.1/dovecot-1.1.rc1-managesieve-0.10.0.diff… (my public key (id: 3DFBB4F4) can be found at wwwkeys.pgp.net) Have fun testing the Dovecot ManageSieve service. Don't hesitate to notify me when there are problems. Regards, -- Stephan Bosch stephan(a)rename-it.nl IRC: Freenode, #dovecot, S[r]us

[Dovecot] Dovecots default NTLM Version
by hever＠web.de 02 Mar '08

02 Mar '08

Hi, I'm not sure what NTLM version is used as default by authentication between Outlook and dovecot and I couldn't find it out with a packet sniffer. I think its NTLMv2 but I'm not sure so I'm asking here. I know that NTLMv1 is not secure against a man in the middle. _____________________________________________________________________ Der WEB.DE SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen! http://smartsurfer.web.de/?mc=100071&distributionid=000000000066

[Dovecot] Sieve management without shell access or homedir
by Tobias Franzén 02 Mar '08

02 Mar '08

Hi. Is there some user friendly application (web based, maybe a webmail addon) that can help a user manage their sieve filtering? My mail users don't have any shell access to the mail host. Most users won't have a regular home directory either. Can I store this sieve information someplace else? Either directly in LDAP, or in some database, or a common directory for all user's sieve files? /Tobias

[Dovecot] Master user doesn't work with 'pass=yes'
by Ron Avriel 02 Mar '08

02 Mar '08

Hi, It seems that master user login does not work with the 'pass=yes' option as recommended and documented. I defined a master user passdb as documented. In addition, I have a passdb sql. If 'pass=yes' is defined then it seems that dovecot recognizes the master login, verifies the master password but then attempts to verify the ***master*** password again with the ***user*** password (?) and fails. If 'pass=yes' is not defined then master login works OK, but if the user does not exist I get a "* BYE Internal login failure. Refer to server log for more information." instead of the usual "NO Authentication failed.". In addition, I'd like to check the SQL users before the master user, because most logins will be done by SQL users. If I place master passdb after passdb SQL then dovecot fails to start with "Last passdb can't have pass=yes". How can I use master password and "pass=yes"? I'm using dovecot 1.0.10. This is the configuration that fails master login: dovecot.conf: auth_master_user_separator=* auth default { passdb passwd-file { args = /usr/local/etc/passwd.masterusers master = yes pass = yes } passdb sql { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf } userdb prefetch { } userdb sql { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-sql.conf } } passwd.masterusers: master:{SHA}aFAMsNWXTaL5dwGZWeeOhWhlTZA= (password is 'masterpass') log file: Feb 18 17:44:27 ha-test1 dovecot: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=IMAP secured lip=127.0.0.1 rip=127.0.0.1 resp=AHVzZXIxQGV4YW1wbGUub3JnKm1hc3RlcgBtYXN0ZXJwYXNz Feb 18 17:44:27 ha-test1 dovecot: auth(default): passwd-file(master,127.0.0.1,master): lookup: user=master file=/usr/local/etc/passwd.masterusers Feb 18 17:44:27 ha-test1 dovecot: auth(default): passdb(master,127.0.0.1,master): Master user logging in as user1(a)example.org Feb 18 17:44:27 ha-test1 dovecot: auth-worker(default): sql(user1(a)example.org,127.0.0.1): query: SELECT username as user, password, maildir as userdb_home, concat('maildir:', maildir) as userdb_mail, 150 as userdb_uid, 12 as userdb_gid, concat('maildir:storage=', quota) AS userdb_quota FROM mailbox WHERE username = 'user1(a)example.org' AND active = '1' Feb 18 17:44:27 ha-test1 dovecot: auth-worker(default): sql(user1(a)example.org,127.0.0.1): Password mismatch ***** Here 'masterpass' is compared to the **USER** password hash (?) ******************* Feb 18 17:44:27 ha-test1 dovecot: auth-worker(default): sql(user1(a)example.org,127.0.0.1): PLAIN-MD5(masterpass) != '81dc9bdb52d04dc20036dbd8313ed055' Feb 18 17:44:28 ha-test1 dovecot: auth(default): client out: FAIL 1 user=user1(a)example.org Thanks, Ron ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.

Is this is an expected behaviour? If so, is there any configuration I can change to make it behave as I want instead? -- Julian --- Lookie, lookie, here comes cookie... -- Stephen Sondheim

[Dovecot] typo caused dovecot-acl line 1: Unknown ACL ' '
by Adam McDougall 02 Mar '08

02 Mar '08

A co-worker edited a dovecot-acl file and accidently introduced a space at the end of a "user=username lrwstie" entry. Fortunately he noticed errors in his own mail client, but I'm not sure what may have happened to other users. Would it be possible to make dovecot more forgiving by ignoring whitespace at the end of ACLS to avoid this issue?

[Dovecot] rmdir() warnings with 1.1.rc1
by Dean Brooks 02 Mar '08

02 Mar '08

Hi, Looks like there are still some Solaris rmdir() warnings being logged to syslog in 1.1.rc1 in nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir(): Feb 23 13:09:51 sx3 dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(ran04): \ nfs_flush_file_handle_cache_dir: rmdir(/var/mail) failed: Device busy Manual for rmdir on Solaris states: EBUSY The directory to be removed is the mount point for a mounted file system. We are using /var/mail mounted from NFS, which explains the EBUSY return code. Not sure how you would be able to get the cache flushed in this situation. -- Dean Brooks dean(a)iglou.com

[Dovecot] nfs locking issues...
by John Gray 01 Mar '08

01 Mar '08

I'm running Dovecot 1.1 RC1. I believe I've done all the due diligence for making things working correctly over nfs. But I run into locking issues if I run over nfs. procmail is doing the delivery over nfs. uw-imap was ruining over nfs. dovecot is fine if its on the nfs server (i.e. it has local access to the disk, no nfs) I run into lock deadlocks if I run dovecot over nfs Users are directed to different servers, but a given users will always get the same server (at least until there's no activity for that user for over an hour). This only applies to when running dovecot over nfs. Everybody goes to the nfs server otherwise. Sometimes I can kill all the processes, remove the dot locks, and recover. Something I need to reboot the nfs server to recover. Let me give a run down of the particulars: All the mail is in mbox format. everybody runs linux with kernel 2.6.24.2 (any known nfs locking issues there?). delivery is done via procmail, its locking and dovecot's are both dotlock, fcntl. The nfs mount options are actimeo=3,hard,noatime,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,nfsvers=3 The clocks are in sync. Dovecot.conf: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s login_greeting = imap ready. mail_location = mbox:~/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mmap_disable = yes mail_nfs_storage = yes mail_nfs_index = yes protocol imap { } protocol pop3 { pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv } auth default { mechanisms = plain passdb pam { } userdb passwd { } user = root } dict { } plugin { } Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I did a test with a webmail client (roundcube) & quota= 10 M when I have used 100% of the quota assigned to the mail account , I cannot delete any mail Is it possible to create a kind of warning mail about 80% of quota use or overpass quota for delete operations?

[Dovecot] links causing dovecot endless search through user's homedirs
by Paul Letta 29 Feb '08

29 Feb '08

Hello, My user's imap folder locations are a mess. Some have them in /home/username/mail but a lot of them just have them in /home/username. So I need to have dovecot's base imapdir pointed directly at the user's homedirs. My problem now is that a lot of users have many links in their homedirs. Some even have circular links, such as: /home/username/foo/foo1/foo2/foo3/foo4 -> /home/username/foo/foo1 All these links are causing some dovecot imap process to endlessly search. An example of a strace of a running imap processes shows: stat64("/home/xxx//jlab/jlab/dev/tail/interp/radcor/results/fake/e94010/3RDTRY/interp/radcor/results/fake/e94010/3RDTRY/interp/radcor/resul ts/fake/e94010/3RDTRY/interp/radcor/results/fake/e94010/3RDTRY/interp/radcor/results/fake/e94010/3RDTRY/interp/radcor/results/fake/e94010/3RDT RY/interp/radcor/results/fake/e94010/3RDTRY/interp/radcor/results/fa ... and so on. Since I can't get a hold of my users and make them all put their imap folders in /home/username/mail and configure dovecot to just search there... Is there a way to tell dovecot to ignore links ?
