[Dovecot] Using dovecot with vpopmail and mysql auth?
by Aaron Greengrass 18 Aug '10

18 Aug '10

Hi, Does anyone happen to know the right strings to do authentication against mysql storing vpopmail data, vs using the vpopmail auth module? I'm trying to get up to both vpopmail 5.5, and dovecot 2.0, and dovecot-auth seems to reliably segfault on the 5.5 vpopmail module. I've tried downgrading vpopmail as well, with less than stellar results. I saw an old article about doing exactly that -- switching from the vpop module, while still using it's DB, but it is both a) old, and b) confusing. Any help you can offer -- or urls in a pinch -- would be appreciated.

[Dovecot] Very complex Master User Examples using MySQL
by Marc Perkel 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

For those who are interested I have posted in the Wiki examples of using master users in very interesting ways. In these example we will create 3 kinds of master users. The first will be users who can read all email for all domains. The next example will be users who can read all email for their domain only. The third example will be users who can read email of domains listed in a separate ownership table. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers Go to Advanced SQL Examples at bottom Let me know what you think. In order to actually make this work you'll have to apply this patch Timo just posted: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0/rev/3ba227176cde

[Dovecot] dovecot 2.0 convert script
by Marc Perkel 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

Since my old config had this: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s ssl_cert_file = /usr/share/ssl/certs/imapd.pem ssl_key_file = /usr/share/ssl/certs/imapd.pem then the convert script should have added ssl = yes Just trying to document all the little issues as I find them.

[Dovecot] Tricky Master User Query - need MySQL help
by Marc Perkel 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

OK - I want to do something very tricky with master users and if I get it to work I'm adding it to the wiki for everyone to use. So far I have a MySQL database that servers multiple domains. I can set a flag making someone a domain owner that allows that person to become master of that domain. Here's the query for that. password_query = SELECT user_name, domain_name, password FROM users WHERE user_name = '%n' AND domain_name = '%d' AND owns_domain='1' AND '%d'='%{login_domain}' So - here's where we get tricky. I have another table called "ownership" where I have 2 fields which is a pairing of email addresses (login_id) and domains owned (owned_object). Data might look like this: joe(a)blow.com domain1.com joe(a)blow.com domain2.com Since joe(a)blow.com owns both domain1.com and domain2.com I want him to be able to log in as anyone in those 2 domains as a master user. Examples: tom@domain1.com*joe@blow.com harry@domain2.com*joe@blow.com So the idea is to create a MySQL query so that if the master user matches the domain part of the login user then it returns true and allows the login. What MySQL query will do that?

[Dovecot] Master Login using MySQL problem - %{login_domain}
by Marc Perkel 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

Hi Timo, Been trying to track this problem down further. The problem seems to be related to verifying the master user failing. My passdb looks like this: passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-domain-owner-sql.conf master = yes pass = yes } dovecot-domain-owner-sql.conf contains: user_query = SELECT user_name, domain_name FROM users WHERE user_name = '%n' AND domain_name = '%d' AND owns_domain='1' password_query = SELECT user_name, domain_name, password FROM users WHERE user_name = '%n' AND domain_name = '%d' AND owns_domain='1' AND '%d'='%{login_domain}' In this example - bill(a)plf.net is an ordinary user. tom(a)plf.net is a domain owner. Tom wants to read bills email. The login is: bill@plf.net*tom@plf.net This results in tom(a)plf.net being classified as an unknown user. Aug 17 08:38:30 auth: Debug: sql(tom(a)plf.net,127.0.0.1): query: SELECT user_name, domain_name, password FROM users WHERE user_name = 'tom' AND domain_name = 'plf.net' AND owns_domain='1' AND 'plf.net'='' Aug 17 08:38:30 auth: Info: sql(tom(a)plf.net,127.0.0.1): unknown user Aug 17 08:38:32 auth: Debug: client out: FAIL 15 user=tom(a)plf.net Aug 17 08:38:32 imap-login: Info: Aborted login (auth failed, 1 attempts): user=<tom(a)plf.net>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, mpid=0, secured Note that the query used to determine that tom(a)plf.net is valid is the password_query and not the user_query resulting in unknown user. I think that's where the problem is.

[Dovecot] Managesieve and Dovecot 2.0: clients incompatible?
by Jerrale G 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

I successfully converted my 1.2.x config and am trying to use managesieve. This configuration is really for 1.2.x even though it says for 2.0: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/ManageSieve/Configuration Trying to assign the port number is not by using "listen". Anyway, I just reverted, on the client, to using the default port 2000. The managesieve client now hangs trying to login and eventually times out. Is the new pigeonhole managesieve incompatible with clients that worked with managesieve 0.11.11? There is no output in the log concerning managesieve from pigeonhole. I guess I could put log=/path/to/a/file in the managesieve part and see what happens. In the old dovecot 1.2, we would get a "managesieve-login" in the log when a client even TRIED to login; now, nothing! -- Jerrale G. SC Senior Admin

[Dovecot] authentication failure with known good credentials???
by Dave Stevens 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

Hi, I have a problem on my server. To illustrate, I created a new user, unclewiggly, and set up a password. I then used sent an email from my usual account. Logging in with my browser I am able to see the inbox, the mail and contents correctly. I then set up a new instance of Eudora 7.1 on my windows 7 box with the appropriate login id and check the account using the correct password. The fetch fails with the client reporting an authentication failure. Ideas? Places to look? Logfiles I can search? Maillog doesn't seem very informative, should I send a snippet?

[Dovecot] 2.0 not starting

Hi everybody, I tried to upgrade my 1.2.13 dovecot to 2.0. The configure/make/install process seemed to work flawlessly. I created the dovenull user, converted my config with #src/config/doveconf -n -c /etc/dovecot.conf > /tmp/dovecot.conf and moved the result manually to /etc/dovecot. By typing "dovecot" (after having stopped the previous instance :), I get: Error: service(pop3-login): listen(::, 110) failed: Address already in use Error: service(imap-login): listen(::, 143) failed: Address already in use Fatal: Failed to start listeners tough nor "netstat -ta" nor "lsof -i" do show anything using port 110 or 143.

[Dovecot] Master User Features I'd like to see
by Marc Perkel 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

Here's what I'd like. Limited master users, where someone can be a master users for some domains but not others. I think I could do what I want with the right kinds of variable passing that doesn't yet exist. Let me see if I can explain clearly. From the example in the wiki: auth_master_user_separator = * passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql-master.conf.ext master = yes pass = yes } passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext } userdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext } Login looks like this: # telnet localhost 143 * OK Dovecot ready. 1 login loginuser*masteruser masterpass 1 OK Logged in. I'm assuming that the masteruser and masterpass is passed to the master passdb and when doing so the variable %u is the master user. I assume that %n and %d also represent the name and domain part of the master user. What I need is to also be able to have variables for the loginuser passed to the master user query. Something like %lu, %ln, and %ld perhaps. That way with MySQL tricks I might be able to see if the master user is master for that particular login user. That way I can give domain owners or owners of multiple domains the ability to manage the email accounts within their scope of permission.

[Dovecot] cluster with dsync mirror
by Bryan Vyhmeister 17 Aug '10

17 Aug '10

I have an idea for running a pair of redundant dovecot mail servers that may be odd but it might work. I'm interested in any thoughts on the topic. Would it work to run 'dsync mirror' every minute against either mdbox or sdbox mailbox on a dedicated network connection between two (or potentially three or four) mail servers? I'm trying to avoid using a NAS/SAN or some other dedicated NFS server in a simple environment with a limited number of users. Everything else about the systems could be identical. Both could receive mail using Postfix with dovecot LDA. Thank you. Bryan

However I am going to rename the package to dovecot2 in order to separate it from dovecot 1.x installs. My idea there is to allow the user to continue with the dovecot 1.x line in the event of patch updates and further releases from that tree ( like dovecot 1.2.13 ) while also maintaining the ver 2.x family. However I don't think I'll support multiple instances of dovecot ( regardless of version ) in the same Solaris zone.

[Dovecot] Split number of imap-login and pop3-login processes
by Mischa Peters 16 Aug '10

16 Aug '10

Hi All, Is there a way to define the number for imap-login processes and pop3-login processes separately? My mail server is getting more IMAP clients and much less POP3 clients these days and it continues to run out of authentication processes. I have been increasing login_max_processes_count the last couple of days and I noticed that it's split between IMAP and POP3. All 129 imap-login processes are tied up while there are only 3 of the 129 pop3-login processes in use. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanx!!

[Dovecot] Address book for 2.0?

With The dict {} and expire-related parts commented out, operation has no errors or delays; performance is exceptional with maildir, quota, sieve, and managesieve. I don't think managesieve would patch any part of the dictionary code as it only has to do with another service process, not a plugin; if the patching was to cause problems with other services, for the service definition coding, the other services would have a problem, correct? The expires dictionary mysql table was being correctly used, with one day of use, as there are 10000 records; I'm going to have to revise the mysql indexes for performance in case I am able to fix the dictionary problem. We like the 1.2.13 version of dovecot, as far as security, and wonder how I can find a correct defintion scripting for the dict {}, from a previous version, and merge. We are use to windows compilations. I am skeptical to go to dovecot 2.0 as our services are in production and 2.0 is beta. I have recompiled several times with fresh sources of dovecot 1.2.13, managesieve 0.11.11 patchl, and sieve 1.0.17 as directed by the Dovecot Wiki. Jerrale G, SCA

Unless release critical bugs are reported, I'll update the version number to v2.0.0 on Monday morning without any other changes. Since rc5 there have been mainly some small fixes and some error message improvements.

[Dovecot] Maildir over NFS
by CJ Keist 14 Aug '10

14 Aug '10

I'm working on bring up a new mail server to replace our current one. Our current mail server is running dovecot 1.1.16, with postfix using mbox format. User inboxes are stored locally on the mail server and all other mail folders in users home directory under mail which is NFS mounted on the mail server. For our new mail server I'm looking to switch to the Maildir format. Some years ago I remember reading that it was not recommended to run Maildir format over NFS. Now I'm looking at several posts that seem to indicate that Maildir should run fine over NFS. I'm a little concerned about running Maildir over NFS, especially from the howto conversion pages I read would move all messages over to the User ~/Maildir folder including the inbox. So having every single mail transaction going over NFS doesn't seem the smart thing to do. So question I have for the dovecot team, does running Maildir over NFS work well? Or would you recommend that all user mail folders be stored locally on the mail server when using Maildir? We have about 3400 users, doing about 30k mail deliveries daily. Some users have 10's of thousands of mail messages in hundreds of mail folders. Thanks... -- C. J.

[Dovecot] quota_warning bug?
by jeroen＠intuxicated.org 13 Aug '10

13 Aug '10

Hi, Today I was testing with dovecot 2.0 rc5 and experienced some odd behaviour with quota_warning rules. It's reproducable. When I set a rule (this one simply writes some message to a text file) and go over quota (2 messages in this case), it works as expected. But if I restart my client, remove one message, restart my client again and remove the last message from my inbox, it executes the warning rule again. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I tested with the debian package dovecot_2.0.rc5-0~auto+8 found in rename-it.nl's repository. Thanks. Best regards, Jeroen Koekkoek

[Dovecot] Exim+Dovecot LDA - How can I catch the crash?
by Odhiambo Washington 12 Aug '10

Hello list I am testing mdbox with Dovecot from http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0-sis/.and my MTA is Exim. It appears to crash, but I am not sure how to capture the actual crash. What I get in Exim logs is: 2010-07-28 19:55:13 1Oe9uT-000KmG-Oz ** /var/spool/virtual/ titan.co.ke/wash/Maildir <wash(a)titan.co.ke> R=virtual_domains T=dovecot_virtual_delivery: Child process of dovecot_virtual_delivery transport (running command "/opt/dovecot2/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d $local_part@$domain -f $sender_address") was terminated by signal 11 (segmentation fault) This crash does not happen with RC3 of Dovecot.

[Dovecot] hunting timeouts
by Iv Ray 12 Aug '10

12 Aug '10

Hi guys, I inherited a Dovecot 1.0.1, which I will have to upgrade, but until then I need, if possible, to resolve a timeout. - we have about 25 IMAP users - the busiest user has about 100 000 messages (Maildir) in less than 100 folders - the mail server is on HP server with server grade 2.5" HDDs in RAID 5 - the load average of the server is low (the 5/15 minute is under 0.20) - the mail server is in-house on Gigabit Ethernet The timeout we face is that sometimes even small messages take 20-40 seconds to open (i. e. Tunderbird 2 on Windows 7). Or connection to the mail server timeouts. Could you give me a few tips where can I look in order to detect the possible reason for these timeouts. Thank you, Iv

[Dovecot] moving mail from private inbox to public folder kills the latter
by Tamas Kadar 12 Aug '10

12 Aug '10

Hi I've ran into something rather nasty: if a user moves a mail from its inbox to a public folder, the folder becomes inaccessible for others, because the moved file will have the the permission 600 instead of 777 (or 666) which the rest of the emails have in the folder. How can I change this behavior so when he moves the mail it automatically becomes world-readable? Also why one mail kills the whole folder? Here's the error I get: Error: open(/home/_shared/projects/.Long.Folder/cur/1281535484.M3B5A7P15183Q0.mail_espell_com:2,Sb) failed: Permission denied (euid=1000(ktamas) egid=1000(ktamas) missing +r perm: /home/_shared/projects/.Long.Folder/cur/1281535484.M3B5A7P15183Q0.mail_espell_com:2,Sb, euid is not dir owner) Thanks and best regards Tamas

[Dovecot] More than one private namespace not possible
by Jan Friedrich 12 Aug '10

12 Aug '10

Hi everyone, Two days ago I migrated from Courier to Dovecot 1.2.13. Everything went smooth until the point I wanted to try some more features of Dovecot. My working configuration contains just the one INBOX. private namespace. Adding any other private namespaces (e.g. SHARE. with the configuration below) produces strange results in Thunderbird 3.0.6 and Evolution 2.28.3: I cannot see the SHARE. namespace but the mail clients create SHARE^^Trunk and other funny things inside the INBOX. namespace (inside die INBOX. Maildir). Changing the name of this private namespace has no effect. Because the devault dovecot.conf tells me I need an default namespace I created one but that did not change anything. In Thunderbird 3.0.6 the namespaces are correctly displayed in the advanced IMAP settings under "private namespaces" but not in the main view. The logs do not show any errors or warnings and the Maildir for the SHARE. namespace is correctly created by Dovecot. System: Ubuntu Hardy with self-compiled Dovecot 1.2.13 with managesieve 0.11.11 patch. SHARE-Namespace: namespace private { separator = . prefix = SHARE. location = maildir:~/shared/Maildir list = yes subscriptions = yes hidden = no inbox = no } Working config (without second private namespace): # 1.2.13: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-028stab070.2 x86_64 Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ protocols: imap imaps managesieve listen(default): *:143 listen(imap): *:143 listen(managesieve): *:2000 ssl_listen(default): *:993 ssl_listen(imap): *:993 ssl_listen(managesieve): ssl_cert_file: /etc/courier/host.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/courier/host.pem login_dir: /var/run/dovecot//login login_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(managesieve): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/managesieve-login first_valid_uid: 1 mail_uid: mail mail_gid: mail mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir mail_executable(default): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(managesieve): /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/managesieve mail_plugins(default): acl imap_acl mail_plugins(imap): acl imap_acl mail_plugins(managesieve): mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(managesieve): /usr/local/lib/dovecot/managesieve imap_client_workarounds(default): tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(imap): tb-extra-mailbox-sep imap_client_workarounds(managesieve): namespace: type: private separator: . prefix: INBOX. location: maildir:~/Maildir inbox: yes list: yes subscriptions: yes lda: postmaster_address: root(a)domain.de mail_plugins: sieve acl mail_plugin_dir: /usr/local/lib/dovecot/lda auth default: passdb: driver: ldap args: /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap.conf userdb: driver: prefetch userdb: driver: ldap args: /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap.conf socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: mail master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 384 user: mail plugin: acl: vfile acl_shared_dict: file:/var/lib/dovecot/shared/shared-mailboxes.db sieve: ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir: ~/sieve Regards -- Jan Friedrich jft(a)dev2day.de Bitte senden Sie mir keine Word- oder PowerPoint-Anhänge.

[Dovecot] v2.0.rc5 released
by Timo Sirainen 12 Aug '10

http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/rc/dovecot-2.0.rc5.tar.gz http://dovecot.org/releases/2.0/rc/dovecot-2.0.rc5.tar.gz.sig Unfortunately v2.0.0 has to be delayed a while longer, because I found that there were still problems in plugin hook handling when using more than 2 plugins. Hopefully it's now finally fully fixed, but I'd like to be sure and wait for one more week to see if people can find a problem with some plugin combination. - Using more than 2 plugins could have caused broken behavior (more fixes for this) - Listescape plugin fixes - mbox: Fixed a couple of assert-crashes - mdbox: Fixed potential assert-crash when saving multiple messages in one transaction.

[Dovecot] sessions accounting and monitoring
by Xavier Pons 12 Aug '10

Hi, we would have some accounting/monitoring of pop and imap sessions in our dovecot servers, which are the 'best' and fair way to do it? using some post-login scripts, parsing the log file, using netstat ... I know in the 2.0 version exists the doveadm who, but only relates to imap sessions... some recommendations? thanks Xavier
