I am following the steps listed in: http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/ActiveDirectoryNtlm My goal is to have single sign-on for Microsoft Outlook applications. I working and I have some doubts since I never set up an imap server, hope I can help :). The version that I have installed is devecot 2.0.9. "dovecot -n" shows the following: # 2.0.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS release 6.4 (Final) auth_use_winbind = yes mbox_write_locks = fcntl passdb { driver = pam } protocols = imap pop3 ssl = no userdb { args = uid=10000 gid=10000 home=/mail/%d/%n driver = static } I show what I have in /etc/samba/smb.conf [global] workgroup = EJEMPLO realm = EJEMPLO.COM.UY server string = %h (Samba %v) security = ADS password server = ad.domain.dom username map = /etc/samba/mapeousuarios map untrusted to domain = Yes syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 name resolve order = wins host bcast local master = No domain master = No dns proxy = No wins server = here active directory ip panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d winbind separator = + winbind use default domain = Yes winbind rpc only = Yes idmap config * : range = 1200-3000 idmap config * : backend = tdb [usuarios3] path = /exports/archivos-usuarios read only = No map acl inherit = Yes store dos attributes = Yes "wbinfo -g" and "wbinfo -u" work well. kinit Administrator work well also. Some steps of the configuration in dovecot.conf does not recognize: 1) "protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s". 2) "mechanisms = plain ntlm login". 3) "allow_all_users=yes" y "mail=maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%1Ln/%Ln:INBOX=/home/vmail/%d/%1Ln/%Ln". I'm not sure I should put in place. I also have some doubts: 1) I have to create a keytab file containing the principal for imap and pop?, as it would indicate Dovecot?. 2) That should indicate values uid y el gid? 3) I have to set something in pam? if I make "telnet localhost imap" shows the following: OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN] Dovecot ready NTLM not appears in the options. I hope I can shed some light on the subject :) Thanks and greetings. -- Maria José

Regarding your questions: Exchange 2010 and its supported (and unsupported and deviations from) IMAP standards are described on MS-STANXIMAP (MSDN). As far as I can tell, neither XLIST nor the enhanced (=extension of the standard) version of LIST is supported. Please keep in mind that this wouldn't matter very much, since most would connect to an Exchange 2010 server using either ActiveSync or MAPI/RPC. The following scenarios would definitely work: (A) your provider allows connections using ActiveSync (often referred to as "mobile" connection/access) and you're using Outlook 2013, (B) your provider allows connections using MAPI/RPC and you're using Outlook 2010. Outlook 2013 supports the extension specified in RFC 6154 and implements it using the XLIST command (as per MS-STANOIMAP), as documented in MS-STANOIMAP part 2.2.38; however, the LIST command in the same document doesn't mention the extension, so I'd assume it (Outlook 2013) doesn't necessarily support this feature using LIST as specified per RFC6154 (but only using explicitly XLIST.) Usually, any newer IMAP server supporting RFC6154 "LIST" ("XLIST") supports both the older XLIST as well as the newer LIST syntax. If it doesn't, a patch implementing this feature shouldn't be longer than a few (10 maybe?) lines of code and a few kind words to the developer team to get it into the next release of the server in question. --- http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee624430%28v=exchg.80%29.aspx ----------- V0061: The specification describes how to define an experimental command or any command that is not part of the specification. Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, Microsoft Outlook 2010 Outlook does not define any such commands. Microsoft Outlook 2013 Outlook 2013 implements the IMAP LIST extension specified in [RFC6154] as the XLIST command. --------------- so it may more a typical microsoft doku problem *g but however ,in fact no working trouble with dovecot SPECIAL-USE as far i remmeber to that list posting the problem whas there should get fixed was outlooks meaning of the Junk folder stuff, which is basicly done in another way by having its own antispam feature setup, so there are a few way to workaround that problem which i never tested and never will. My simple answer always is, Outlook is the client of exchange, with few stuff supporting normal internet mail ( imap etc ), dont use it with internet mail or live with its problems for notice Horde will implement Outlook 2013 complete active sync stack , so if that will happen, use active sync modus outlook 2013 with calender, abook, push mail , should no need for direct imap server con then, and it should "feel" like using exchnage ( but i think for one account only ), as horde has caldav and carddav , syncml too it can be used as middleware between many clients on many different os types i.e thunderbird lightning and k9 or native androids mail clients in exchange mode Best Regards MfG Robert Schetterer -- [*] sys4 AG http://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Franziskanerstraße 15, 81669 München Sitz der Gesellschaft: München, Amtsgericht München: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Axel von der Ohe, Marc Schiffbauer Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Florian Kirstein Best Regards MfG Robert Schetterer -- [*] sys4 AG http://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Franziskanerstraße 15, 81669 München Sitz der Gesellschaft: München, Amtsgericht München: HRB 199263 Vorstand: Patrick Ben Koetter, Axel von der Ohe, Marc Schiffbauer Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Florian Kirstein

[Dovecot] dovecot-lmtp does not work
by He Shiming 01 Jun '13

01 Jun '13

Dear Community, I've got a weird problem regarding lmtp setup with dovecot 2.0.19 on ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. My reference of the configuration is at https://library.linode.com/email/postfix/postfix2.9.6-dovecot2.0.19-mysql , and my configuration is identical to it with the exception of opening the 110 pop3 port, and enabling plain text auth. Everything from imap, smtp, pop3 (including auth) works except for lmtp. I saw thousands of the following messages in /var/log/mail.log: May 31 09:05:24 postfix/lmtp[3664]: 2FD80321F4: to=<myaddress(a)me.com>, relay=none, delay=0.41, delays=0.41/0/0/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to me.com[private/dovecot-lmtp]: No such file or directory) And it happens when an incoming email is received. Here's the output of configuration: root@prosp:/etc/dovecot/conf.d# dovecot -n # 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.8.4-linode50 i686 Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS ext3 auth_mechanisms = plain login disable_plaintext_auth = no mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n mail_privileged_group = mail managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } protocols = imap pop3 sieve service auth-worker { user = vmail } service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = postfix mode = 0666 user = postfix } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-auth { group = postfix mode = 0660 user = postfix } unix_listener auth-userdb { mode = 0600 user = vmail } user = dovecot } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } } service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 110 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_cipher_list = ALL:!LOW:!SSLv2:ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n driver = static } protocol imap { imap_client_workarounds = delay-newmail mail_max_userip_connections = 10 } protocol pop3 { mail_max_userip_connections = 10 pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh } protocol lda { deliver_log_format = msgid=%m: %$ mail_plugins = sieve postmaster_address = postmaster quota_full_tempfail = yes rejection_reason = Your message to <%t> was automatically rejected:%n%r } This problem has been discussed here: http://serverfault.com/questions/512219/dovecot-lmtp-does-not-exist . I've then tried switching from unix socket to inet listener, and still got the same result. I cannot get lmtp service to start. I'm also seeing no errors in the log when dovecot is restarted (see the above link for the log). I'm wondering how do I go about troubleshooting this problem? What might be the possible cause? Is it possible for dovecot to output verbose logs regarding service startups?

[Dovecot] LDA/LMTP - saving to INBOX fallback on tempfail?
by Timo Sirainen 31 May '13

31 May '13

Currently if saving to mailbox fails for any reason, the mail is saved to INBOX instead. Same if a Sieve redirect fails, the mail is saved to INBOX. I'm wondering if anyone actually prefers this behavior when the error is temporary? For example if some index file corruption was detected, the save will most likely succeed the next time it's attempted. Or if the redirect fails because the SMTP server can't be connected to at the moment. So I was thinking about changing v2.2 LDA/LMTP to simply return temporary failure instead of saving the mail to INBOX.

Check out the "slurp" plugin and let your MTA deliver mails to, say, /var/mail/<uid> . You will have no Sieve rules then, I think.

[Dovecot] Sieve/pigeonhole with Exim and Dovecot LDA
by Sebastian Arcus 30 May '13

30 May '13

I am trying to configure my Dovecot installation to provide Vacation/Out-of-the-office emails using the Sieve plugin. My setup is a little bit peculiar: Internet Internet | ^ V | Provider's POP3 server Provider's SMTP server | ^ V | -------------- getmail | my server | | V | Dovecot LDA ---> Sieve/vacation -----> Exim | V Dovecot my server --------------- Sorry for the ASCII art above - I thought it would be quicker than trying to explain. The trouble I'm having is getting the Dovecot LDA to send successfully through the local exim instance out-of-office replies back to the provider's smtp server - when receiving fresh email from the provider (through getmail). Dovecot LDA tries to send the replies - but Exim freezes them because they don't contain the sender data in the format Exim wants it. Exim can either receive sender info: 1. On the command line, after the "-f" command line switch (but only when called by root or other users passed under "trusted_users" in exim.conf). 2. In the header of the email - in the "From:" field - but only, apparently, if it was called with the "-t" switch. Full exim command line documentation here: http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_exim_comman… I can't figure out what command line options the Dovecot LDA is using when calling exim. I also couldn't find a way to get Dovecot LDA to pass extra options to exim, when trying to send email. The exim log has the following: 2013-05-20 15:35:15 1UeRBB-0001xc-Ar Frozen (message created with -f <>) I've inspected the frozen message - and it has the correct sender in the "From:" field - but it seems that exim isn't using that, because it wasn't called with the "-t" option. In dovecot.conf, I have the following for Dovecot LDA and sieve: protocols = imap sieve protocol lda { log_path = /var/log/dovecot/dovecot-deliver.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/dovecot-deliver-info.log postmaster_address = admin(a)mydomain.co.uk hostname = mydomain.co.uk mail_plugins = sieve mail_plugin_dir = /usr/lib/dovecot sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/exim } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve } Dovecot LDA is called by getmail using the vmail user - and using the same user it is trying to call exim to deliver the out-of-office replies. I'm using Dovecot 2.2.1 with pigeonhole 0.4.0. I can post the rest of dovecot.conf if it would help. I've read through the stuff at dovecot.org - but all the Dovecot LDA and exim info refers to Exim passing email to Dovecot using Dovecot LDA - not Dovecot LDA sending email out using Exim.

[Dovecot] Perfect LDAP tree

Hello everybody and Timo. I have the next problem. With LDAP tree like ou=mail | - dc=example1.com,ou=Mail | - mail=box1(a)example1.com,dc=example1.com,ou=Mail | - mail=box2(a)example1.com,dc=example1.com,ou=Mail … | - dc=example2.com,ou=Mail | - mail=box1(a)example2.com,dc=example2.com,ou=Mail | - mail=box2(a)example2.com,dc=example2.com,ou=Mail … and settings in dovecot configuration files auth_bind = yes auth_bind_userdn = mail=%u,dc=%d,ou=mail base = ou=mail user_attrs = \ =home=/var/vmail/%Ld/%Ln, \ =quota_rule=*:storage=%{ldap:mailQuota}M user_filter = (&(objectClass=mailUser)(accountStatus=active)(mail=%u)) pass_attrs = \ =user=%{ldap:mail}, \ =proxy_maybe=yes, \ =host=%{ldap:mailHost}, \ =userdb_home=/var/vmail/%Ld/%Ln, \ =userdb_quota_rule=*:storage=%{ldap:mailQuota}M pass_filter = (&(objectClass=mailUser)(accountStatus=active)(mail=%u)) iterate_attrs = mail=user iterate_filter = (&(objectClass=mailUser)(accountStatus=active)) all works fine. But my soul of perfectionist do not like this configuration because in every mailbox record duplicated information about domain: mail=box1(a)example2.com and dc=example2.com I want to set next LDAP tree ou=mail | - dc=example1.com,ou=Mail | - mail=box1,dc=example1.com,ou=Mail | - mail=box2,dc=example1.com,ou=Mail … | - dc=example2.com,ou=Mail | - mail=box1,dc=example2.com,ou=Mail | - mail=box2,dc=example2.com,ou=Mail … but I don't understand how to limit query to box1(a)example1.com in dc=example1.com,ou=mail without using base=dc=%d,ou=Clients,o=m and how to get working iterate query for all boxes to get list box1(a)example1.com box2(a)example1.com box1(a)example2.com box2(a)example2.com in some command like doveadm quota recalc -A. Is it possible? How to take it?

Re: [Dovecot] system account delivery userdb authentication

While it's often convenient to make a distinction between 'system' and 'virtual' users, Dovecot doesn't actually know the difference. It just looks users up in the passdb and userdb you have configured. This means it's perfectly straightforward to do a completely 'virtual user' setup, and then change the passdb to 'pam', which will let the users log in with their ordinary Unix password. To allow users to log in with just a username, all you need to do is make sure the users in the userdb and passdb are listed that way. Userdb passwd and passdb pam naturally are, but there's nothing to stop you using other userdbs if you want to. The only trick here is that if you're using LDA/LMTP then incoming deliveries will (or, at least, usually should) be addressed to a full email address, so you need auth_username_format to trim that back to a username. I don't know anything about Usermin, but if it is trying to set up traditional procmail filtering and vacation(1), you may be in trouble. Or, at least, you may have to give up on using Dovecot to deliver the mail and let Postfix's local(8) and procmail deliver it into maildirs themselves. If you're happy with this, this isn't a problem for Dovecot, but it might be better to go with Sieve filtering instead. Sieve is a newish mail filtering language, designed primarily to be safe (procmail has a nasty habit of letting users run arbitrary programs). Dovecot's LDA has a pretty complete sieve implementation called Pigeonhole (you may need to install it separately), which also supports a protocol called ManageSieve designed for uploading sieve scripts remotely. There are plugins for some webmail systems (and some desktop mail clients, for that matter) which let the user edit their filters in a gooey way; this includes setting up vacation messages. I use Roundcube webmail for this purpose; it also has a perfectly good PAM password- changing plugin. Ben

[Dovecot] dsync

Hi Is dovecot dsync considered an alternative to offlineimap (or others) when both distant and local are IMAP dovecot servers ? I used offlineimap for this, but somehow offlineimap got messed up (more than once, but without me able to explain how it happened). So I'm considering dsync for this purpose... Thanks! -- erik

[Dovecot] Enable IMAP only for certain users/IP
by Simone Marx :: Edinet Srl 29 May '13

29 May '13

Hi, I'm trying to config dovecot to enable IMAP protocol only for certain IPs and users. The logical steps I've followed are: 1. If a user is trying to login from an IP that I've authorized ( listed in a file) the request is authorized. 2. If not, if the user is listed in a second file the request is authorized. 3. If also this check fails the request is rejected. I'm using PAM for passdb and a passwd-file for userdb: passdb { driver = pam args = session=yes failure_show_msg=yes max_requests=16 cache_key=%u%r%l dovecot-%s } userdb { driver = passwd-file args = /etc/passwd-dovecot } In /etc/pam.d/ there are two files: dovecot-pop3 dovecot-imap dovecot-pop3: #%PAM-1.0 @include common-auth @include common-account @include common-session (for this protocol everything works fine, I don't want to limit it.) dovecot-imap: #%PAM-1.0 @include common-auth auth sufficient pam_listfile.so item=rhost sense=allow file=/etc/dovecot/imaphosts onerr=fail auth required pam_listfile.so item=user sense=allow file=/etc/dovecot/imapusers onerr=fail @include common-account @include common-session If I'm not wrong, once the user is authenticated, PAM checks if the remote IP address is in imaphosts; if it's true, it returns PAM_SUCCESS and stops the execution of the auth block, else if it's false, PAM executes the next line, verifying the presence of the username in imapusers file; if found, then return PAM_SUCCESS, else fail. If this can work, I've a problem with pam_listfile.so and IP addresses: I want to do something smarter than specifying 2^11 IP addresses instead a /21 or IP/netmask Are there alternatives for doing it better? Thanks. Sincerely, Simone Marx.

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.1.7-7 only allow localhost access to IMAP and POP3
by Torben Schou Jensen 29 May '13

29 May '13

Recently I have upgraded my server to Debian 7. Debian have now removed uw-imapd and suggest using dovecot instead. Debian include dovecot version 2.1.7-7. On http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/275 and http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/200 I can read how to setup older version of dovecot with SquirrelMail. They recommend to use uncrypted IMAP when SquirrelMail is on same server. What I would like to support is then imap, imaps, pop3 and pop3s. imaps and pop3s for external users. imap and pop3 only open for localhost, that is SquirrelMail on same machine. With dovecot 1 you could restrict access using "imap_listen = localhost" How do I make the same restriction with localhost on dovecot 2 ??? Brgds Torben

[Dovecot] Email migration
by Romer Ventura 29 May '13

29 May '13

Hello, So I am currently running dovecot 1.2.11 on Debian 5 for our production email systems. We just deployed some new Debian 7 servers and we will be upgrading to the latest dovecot version. I've been reading the docs, but I wanted to heard some feedback on the import of all my current email into the new installation. We have 320GB worth of email. Any gotchas I should be prepared for? Any complications I should be aware of when importing all these data? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks. <BR CLEAR="ALL"> <hr style="border: 1px solid #CCC;"> <p style="font-style:italic; font-size:8pt; font-family:verdana; color:gray;">This document and attachments may contain technical data controlled under the U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and may not be exported to a Foreign Person, either in the U.S. or abroad, without the proper authorization by the U.S. Department of State or Department of Commerce, whichever is applicable.

[Dovecot] system account delivery userdb authentication
by Yann Shukor 29 May '13

29 May '13

Hi I have a remaining issue with a mail server setup. Composed of Postfix and Dovecot it is is a 'local' mail server At first I relied upon Mysql to store the various parameters, and then switched to a flat file approach I also initially set the server up to handle virtual users, but then I realized that it was destined to manage local system accounts only. So I reconfigured it accordingly Relying on system accounts for authentication means that the domain name component is absent from the username (as opposed to virtual user identifiers) This caused me some difficulty at first with roundcube, but I was able to get around it through a manual adjustment in Mysql The remaining aspect that isn't working is the delivery of emails. The entry in master.cf for dovecot looks looks this: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=mail:mail argv=/usr/lib/dovecot/deli ver -d ${recipient} The problem is that the recipient equates to the users email address, which can't in fact be used for authentication purposes with system accounts. I then tried replacing recipient with user: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=mail:mail argv=/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d ${user} There seems to be a rights issue because I get the following error: dovecot Fatal: setgid(100(users)) failed with euid=8(mail), gid=8(mail), egid=8(mail): Operation not permitted Any ideas ? thanks yann # 1.2.15: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 i686 Debian 6.0.7 ext4 log_timestamp: %d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S protocols: imap imaps pop3 pop3s ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/certs/postfix.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/private/postfix.key login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:/var/mail/%u mbox_write_locks: fcntl dotlock mail_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/pop3 lda: auth_socket_path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master postmaster_address: postmaster(a)holinice.com mail_plugins: sieve log_path: syslog_facility: mail auth default: mechanisms: plain login verbose: yes passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 432 user: mail group: mail

[Dovecot] dovecot + virtio (9p2000.L) = errors
by epek＠gmx.net 28 May '13

28 May '13

Hi! I hope someone knows more about the issues I've encountered in: Setup: I am running dovecot 2.1.7 on Debian Wheezy in a virtual machine (kvm-style qemu-kvm: host: ubuntu 13.04/1.4.0-dfsg-1expubuntu). The mail storage is a directory on the host machine mounted via virtfs (9p2000.L) on the guest. Furthermore ISPConfig is involved in that setup, but that should not make any significant difference at that point. Problem resolved: The problem is, that similar to nfs mmap() and dotlocking seem to fail - the mmap issue could be resolved by adding: mmap_disable=yes to dovecot.conf Problem remaining: Still the following errors remain, despite dotlock_use_excl=no May 27 12:54:51 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/.quotausage.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:51 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: file dict commit: file_dotlock_open(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/.quotausage) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:51 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:51 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:51 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:51 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:51 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:51 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:52 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:52 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: file_dotlock_create(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:52 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:52 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: fstat(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist.lock) failed: No such file or directory May 27 12:54:52 host dovecot: imap(test@mydomain): Error: file_dotlock_create(/var/vmail/mydomain/test/Maildir/dovecot-uidlist) failed: No such file or directory The "failed" files are existing on that path - permissions for the configured "vmail" user and group exist (0600).

[Dovecot] UIDLs problem on migration to dovecot
by Oscar A. Jara 27 May '13

27 May '13

Hello list, I'm about to migrate from Courier 4.6 (POP and IMAP) to Dovecot 1.2. I am currently trying to match UIDLs of both servers to avoid redownload of mails but I could not success. I've already configured dovecot POP3 to format UIDLs like this: pop3_uidl_format = UID%u-%v I also executed the script 'courier-dovecot-migrate.pl' to do the migration in a couple of test accounts but the IDs don't match for all mails and the script didn't report any errors. I have production courier pop3 server running on port 110 and the new dovecot server running on another port. Here I paste some of the missmatches in one of the test accounts: 8827 UID9060-1259354075 | 8827 UID9041-1259354075 8828 UID9061-1259354075 | 8828 UID9023-1259354075 8829 UID9062-1259354075 | 8829 UID9067-1259354075 8830 UID9063-1259354075 | 8830 UID9064-1259354075 8831 UID9064-1259354075 | 8831 UID9043-1259354075 8832 UID9065-1259354075 | 8832 UID9061-1259354075 8833 UID9066-1259354075 | 8833 UID9025-1259354075 8834 UID9067-1259354075 | 8834 UID9047-1259354075 One thing that I don't know if is important is that I am using dovecot-lda since long ago, not courier lda. I don't know what I am missing here and I would appreciate some help.

[Dovecot] Problem with dsync replication : mails are not deleted correctly
by Nicolas ROCHE 27 May '13

27 May '13

Hello, I would like to configure a postfix / dovecot cluster based on ssh / dsync replication. I have two linux serveurs (Oracle RHEL 5 86_64) and I install both sides dovecot (V2.2.2+), postfix (2.10.0) and mysql (Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.77). I configured these servers in order to make them replicate, and I created some virtual users. I use some java code in order to send mail (with SMTP) and to get mail (with POP3). When the java code get a mail, it deletes it from mailbox (the flag "DELETED" is set to true). When I send a mail on server A, I can see the mail replicated on both servers A and B : a file containing the message data exists in /home/vmail/test03/new/ in both sides. When I get the mail from server A with my java POP3 client, all is OK : the mail is deleted on both servers A and B (no more file in /home/vmail/test03/new/). The problem is when I send a mail on server A and I get it from server B : I can get the mail, but the mail is not deleted from server B, and neither from server A. When I try a second time to get the mail on server B, then all becomes OK : the mail is deleted on both server A and B. I can reproduce the problem every time. Is it a known bug or not ? If yes, is there a patch ? If no, may the problem come from my config ? Regards, Nicolas.

[Dovecot] Upgrading 1.2 to 2.x
by Simon B 27 May '13

27 May '13

Hi In an unscheduled maintenance window next week, I will have the opportunity to upgrade to 2.x should I wish to do and provided I can get it working on stage first. My questions: I've seen a lot on the list about the rock-solidness of 1.2 but also some people saying that some versions of 2.x better than others. Is there a recommended version - I don't need bleeding edge, I'd prefer stability, or one most of you can agree on? What am I missing by not upgrading? A few months ago I tried to convert a Dovecot 1.2 config into 2.1 and wasn't very successful. Any tips on how to go about it? Thanks. Simon

[Dovecot] mixing virtual and system users
by Julien Beauviala 27 May '13

27 May '13

Hello all, I'm setting up a small mail server for aprox 20 users, and I'm trying to keep it really simple so I went the virtual users as text file way, following this page : http://lukas-schulze.de/2012/02/setup-postfix-and-dovecot-on-debian-squeeze… It seemed to work fine except for the 'system' users, and I am stumped by this. Basically the config does not 'see' /etc/aliases, so mail to root or mailman are 'Recipient address rejected: User unknown'. I've added the backup pam as explained by the following page* and tried many permutations in /etc/postfix/main.cf but still not good, systems users are rejected. Obviously something is amiss. * http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/MultipleDatabases If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great.

[Dovecot] Problems with Apple Mail: Enter Password for Account "..."
by Frank Röhm 26 May '13

26 May '13

Hello I have on Ubuntu 12.04 a postfix 2.9.3-2 mailserver with dovecot 2.0.19 I get email from my pc (thunderbird), my smartphone (k9mail) and my MacBook (Apple Mail 4.6 - 1085 on Mac OS 10.6.8) all with IMAP and SSL. All is working normally but sometimes I get an error message from my MacBook, which is irritating. It says this (more or less): "Enter Password for Account "..." The IMAP-Server "..." rejected the password for user "..." Enter your password again or cancel. ... o Remember this password in my keychain" The password was NOT wrong, but anyway, if reenter it, Apple Mail won't accept it, the message will come again and again. I guess that dovecot blocks apple mail maybe because the other two clients try to login at the same time? Is there any setting where I could adjust this blocking (if it is blocking) in dovecot? Only if this really is the reason. The issue is coming not regularily but when it comes, often for half an hour I cannot check mails for this account (other accounts on apple mail won't be touched). If I restart Apple Mail, the problem could be fixed, but maybe not. In the logfiles of Dovecot I don't find anything about this. Thank you and kind regards frank

[Dovecot] dovecot-sieve (pigeonhole) -- is is possible to "re-filter" INBOX when filters have been updated?
by Lev Serebryakov 25 May '13

25 May '13

Hello, Dovecot. I want to migrate to webmail (roundcube) over dovecot + sieve (pigeonhole). Now I'm using on-client (The Bat!) filters, but I need to have acccess to my mail everywhere, not only on my workstation. And I wonder, is here simple way to re-filter INBOX after sieve filters have been changed? Any offline (desktop) mail client could run new filters on old messages -- is here any way to do this with dovecot-sieve (pigeonhole)? I'm using postfix + dovecot LMTP to run sieve filters. -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov <lev(a)serebryakov.spb.ru>

[Dovecot] Virtual Servers, or different authentication setups.
by Joshua Gardner 25 May '13

25 May '13

I want to know if there is any virtual server functionality in Dovecot? I would like to have two separate configurations, that access the same email, running in the same Dovecot instance. They would bind different ports and/or IPs, but have different authentication settings. In particular, one would use a PLAIN password scheme, the other SSHA. How would I go about setting up these virtual servers? Or, would I have to run separate instances of Dovecot? If I do have to run separate instances, how do I keep them from interfering with eachother? -Josh

[Dovecot] Passwordless auth?
by Dan Mahoney, System Admin 25 May '13

25 May '13

Hey all, I'm in the process of writing some scripts which I want to be able to take actions on my local mailbox. (For example, to move a subset of messages to the trash over time, if unread for a week. To act on messages in my learn-spam folder and then delete them). What occured to me as being a Neat Idea is if Dovecot could honor ident (rfc1413) lookups, from trusted hosts (i.e. 127.0.0.1). In this way I get all the benefits of dovecot's indexing being updated and nice locking, but I don't have to leave my password laying around in a plaintext file. (Yes, this assumes I'm running a shell on the mail server. I'm not concerned about the same level of security when you could simply cat my mail spool). I'd definitely consider something like an SSH key with a forced command (I do see questions in the FAQ about making dovecot work over a socket connection), but that forgoes using standard imap clients. I could also create a dovecot-only user with my UID and no other login privileges, but I'd like this to "just work" for anyone. I don't know anything about if dovecot supports X509 auth, but this would require the client libraries to support such a thing, which not all do. I'd love to hear about any other ways people have thought about to do this. Any ideas? -Dan Mahoney -- --------Dan Mahoney-------- Techie, Sysadmin, WebGeek Gushi on efnet/undernet IRC ICQ: 13735144 AIM: LarpGM Site: http://www.gushi.org ---------------------------

[Dovecot] userdb section order seems important in config file
by Ken A 24 May '13

24 May '13

Hi Timo, et al, I'm using Dovecot 2.2.2, with dict file based quota and a quota_rule in dovecot.conf. I have userdb configured like so: userdb { driver = passwd-file args = /etc/dovecot/passwd-file } userdb { driver = passwd } I get the behavior I want with a single line in the passwd-file for any users that I'd like to override the default quota. BUT, if I list the userdb sections in the reverse order, with the driver=passwd first, then the quotas in passwd-file are ignored. I have a feeling I am counting on undocumented behavior that might change in the future. Or is this okay to depend on? Thanks, Ken -- Ken Anderson Pacific Internet - http://www.pacific.net

[Dovecot] Is it possible to palce "detailed" (with local+folder@domai.com) messages not to INBOX/folder, but to INBOX/FixedSubfolder/folder?
by Lev Serebryakov 24 May '13

24 May '13

Hello, Dovecot. Now, with enabled "recipient_delimiter = +", "lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox" and using LMTP, messages with "detail" in address, are placed in auto-created mailboxes. It is great, but what if I want to put all such mailboxes not in inbox directly, but lower in mailbox hierarchy? Is it possible without using sieve? -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov <lev(a)serebryakov.spb.ru>

[Dovecot] problem with proxy setup
by Claus 23 May '13

23 May '13

Hi all, i have some troubles in the implementation of my proxyconfiguration. i have two kind of users, the first will be proxied to a dovecot backend with masteruser-login, the other one will be proxied to another non-dovecot imapserver with nopassword. Everything looks to work if i use passwd-file like this: user1:{PLAIN}pass1:::::::proxy=y host=192.168.1.1 destuser=user1*masteruser pass=masterpass user2::::::::nopassword proxy=y host=192.168.2.2 In an second step i try the same behavior with sql (postgresql), but there are my problems. In my thinking, the sql query should return the right fields (in passwd-file) like proxy, host, .. but whats the trick, to get only the correct fields i need for the different funktions? first proxy, host, destuser, pass and on the other side nopassword, proxy and host. Maybe i have mistakes in reasoning, but in sql i get in one query always the same fields. I hope someone can give me some hints an tricks. thanks, Claus

[Dovecot] should dovecot store maildir files with CRLF or LF?
by Christoph Anton Mitterer 22 May '13

22 May '13

Hi. I've made a strange observation. When having Dovecot (at least) with maildir and moving (via IMAP) mail received by some client (Evolution 3.4) into it the following happens: Regardless of whether the mail was originally(!) set with CRLF or LF (i.e. when I use netcat to submit the plain SMTP to the relaying MTA). When the client (Evolution) had received the mail via POP3 before moving it via IMAP into Dovecot... then the maildir file within dovecot is all LF. When the client however received it via IMAP, before in turn moving it on via IMAP into Dovecot, then the maildir file is mixed CRLF and LF, i.e. the body is CRLF, the headers are terminated... Well the actually bug here is probably in Evolution (as so many others... o.O)... but I wondered... what is Dovecot expected to write files? Platform end-of-line markers (i.e. LF in case of UNIX) or always network end-of-line markers (CRLF)? Cheers, Chris.
