[Dovecot] Server going crazy!!!
by poohba＠blkpoohba.dyndns.org 09 Feb '05

09 Feb '05

I have dovecot-0.99.11-1FC3.4. I use Pine on the server and Outlook 2003 on remote computers to access IMAP and POP3 to access via my blackberry 7100t. It seems that after using IMAP and then going back to pine it somehow refreshes everything and all the messages are picked up on my blackberry once again as if the emails are new. So everything that is in my inbox is now pushed or grabbed by my blackberry as new messages when they are not and have been read already (at least most of them). Why is this happening? ## Dovecot 1.0 configuration file base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s imap_listen = [::] pop3_listen = [::] imaps_listen = [::] pop3s_listen = [::] log_timestamp = "%b %d %H:%M:%S " login_dir = /var/run/dovecot-login login_chroot = yes login = imap login = pop3 default_mail_env = mbox:/home/%u/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u mbox_locks = fcntl auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = passwd auth_passdb = pam auth_user = root

[Dovecot] Multiple auth sections, stable branch - 7/2/05
by Andrew Hutchings 07 Feb '05

07 Feb '05

Hi, Great job with the dovecot 1.0 stable branch, much more stable than the test57 I was using. Only one slight oddity, I know multiple auth sections is not stable yet but I am finding that one auth section at random is being ignored at login time (acknowledges it at startup). The auth section that is ignored is the same each time, but different on each server I use it on and changes at random after modifying the dovecot.conf file. Used both my test57 (hacked to remove the auth command) conf file and a new one I created using today's stable branch conf file. I sorted a work around by duplicating the failing auth sectio with a different name in each server and it works great! :) If this is easy thing to fix, great, you are still our hero either way Timo, you have made our mail server -> cluster migrations much less painless.

[Dovecot] Migrating from mbox to maildir: Message ordering?
by Ian R. Justman 06 Feb '05

06 Feb '05

Hi, all. I have been playing with the notion of migrating some of my folders to maildir because it's a lot easier to manage that way from a reader standpoint. The big question I have is how do I maintain message ordering in each folder? When I use a mail program to do the migration from mbox to maildir, selecting "order received ascending", it works nicely, but one very small problem: When I go to look at the newly-populated folder, everything is in reverse order. I've tried it with T'bird and I've tried it with Pine. Both yield the same results. I'm thinking the issue might be with Dovecot. Or is it a peculiarity with maildir? Or am I better off using other means to convert a mbox folder to maildir? I like maintaining the message delivery order so especially items like mailng list threads can (normally) flow right. I don't always trust the message's date field because it CAN be faked (and sometimes is by the sender, whether accidental or intentional). And while we're on the subject, since maildir's a file-per-message mailstore, what happens to ordering when you delete a message and a new message arrives? However, otherwise, everything else is working beautifully. I haven't gone into bashing the living hell out of it to make sure it REALLY works The testing was done with Dovecot 1.0test62, Thunderbird 1.0, and Pine 4.62. Both mbox and maildir folderstores are on the same machine and Dovecot's configured to use both with a maildir in the user's directory, oddly enough, called "maildir", for their maildir store. Thanks in advance for any help anyone can render. --Ian.

[Dovecot] pam_mkhomedir and dovecot
by Ben Halicki 03 Feb '05

03 Feb '05

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has successfully managed to configure pam_mkhomedir and dovecot, so that users home directories are automatically created? As far as I can tell, the login process runs as a non-root user, which results in a permission denied error while trying to create the users home directory. I'm not sure if this error is specific to dovecot or pam though. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ben Halicki Information Technology Officer Macquarie Textiles Group Ltd Phone: 02 6043 0235 Fax: 02 60411 321 E-mail ben.halicki(a)macquarietextiles.com.au

[Dovecot] Dovecot doesn't call pam_open_session, thus dodging pam_mkhomedir
by Nicolas Lopez 03 Feb '05

03 Feb '05

I hit a small snag using Dovecot-imapd smoothly in my environment with maildir and most of my accounts in LDAP. Since the accounts are created through a web interface on another server home directories on the mail server don't get created automatically. There's the handy pam module pam_mkhomedir.so to automagically create home directories, but unfortunatly Dovecot wasn't calling pam_open_session to run the session setup pam modules. I made a small patch to passdb-pam.c to call pam_open_session between pam_acct_mgmt and pam_get_item and now I my home dirs are automagically created and everyone is happy. So, I figured I'd share the little patch in case someone else finds it useful. My patch doesn't properly close the session which will probably iritate more advanced session modules that actually have something to clean up, oh well. Aside from manually having to create home directories Dovecot-imapd has been working really well for us for a number of months, I just finally got around to dealing with the home dir creation issue. - Nick Lopez nlopez(a)espri.arizona.edu

[Dovecot] dovecot-stable branch
by Timo Sirainen 01 Feb '05

01 Feb '05

To confuse Dovecot versioning even more, I've added "dovecot-stable" module into CVS. This is a version of Dovecot before the recent keyword changes but with several bugfixes backported to it. It's thought to be mostly stable. I intend to keep it updated with important bugfixes and with other simple bugfixes. Although I'm not sure if I'll make a large code base upgrade once keyword changes are stable. This is mostly meant for people who _really_ want to use 1.0-test codebase in production right now. Perhaps it's already more stable than 0.99.x, but upgrading should probably be made easier for v1.0. The dovecot-stable module itself is just a hack that will go away at some point. Once the main codebase is stable enough for v1.0 beta release, I'll make a stable branch instead in the main dovecot module (and probably with different RCS than CVS).

[Dovecot] vpopmail oddities
by Allen Parker 01 Feb '05

01 Feb '05

vpopmail + qmail + dovecot + thunderbird = huge headache ;-) alright, when attempting to connect via imaps to my .maildir based vpopmail install, $user@$domain is having some problems. /var/vpopmail/domains/$domain/$user is the location of the user folders with vpopmail and yet dovecot isn't exactly passing on the domain :-\ i'm not sure if this is a pebkac issue or if it's the root of something far more evil, but this is really bothering me after about 4 days. i've got dovecot set to auth against vpopmail and i'm running a dovecot authd. i know that i've given very little information, is there any way that someone can ping me back requesting the particular information they need to properly diagnose this? -- ________________________________________ To avoid being added to my spam filter: 1.

[Dovecot] mbox vs maildir
by poohba＠blkpoohba.dyndns.org 01 Feb '05

01 Feb '05

I am a little confused and maybe if I figure this out I will be able to get this to work. I am now able to get my pop3 working but not imap. My inbox is in /var/spool/mail/%u and my mail directory is /home/%u/mail and then all the 'folders' are there which are actually files. Is that maildir or mbox? Which do I have to use for dovecot? Or can I use whichever I choose. I would like to keep the setup I have and use IMAP but i am finding this very difficult. I find some places that say I have to convert what I have and other places that say I don't. Can someone please break it down for me.

[Dovecot] How to run in debug format for SSL testing?
by Jeff A. Earickson 31 Jan '05

31 Jan '05

Help, new to dovecot... I want to get some output from my test sessions to confirm that SSL pop and imap are working. How does one get debug output from dovecot? How does one see that dovecot is using SSL in a transaction? I configured dovecot 0.99.13 with: CC=gcc CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/openssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/opt/openssl/lib \ ./configure --prefix=/opt/dovecot --with-ssl=openssl \ --with-ssldir=/opt/openssl/ssl --with-rawlog --enable-debug > configure.out on Solaris 9. BTW, if I compile with Sun's StudioOne version 8 compiler, I get a core dump of dovecot-auth into /var/run/dovecot. The gdb backtrace looks like: gdb dovecot-auth core GNU gdb 5.2.1 Copyright 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

[Dovecot] Corrupted mailboxes
by Vincent Jaussaud 31 Jan '05

31 Jan '05

Hello, We are currently facing some weird problems, and although it may not be directly related to dovecot, I hope some of you guys may have a clue on this. We used to have a POP/IMAP server running Fedora Core1, with dovecot 0.99.13 (DAG). Everything was working fine, until an hardware problem forced us to install a new server, on another machine. We installed a fresh new Fedora Core 3 box, running both sendmail 8.13.1, procmail 3.22 and dovecot 0.99.13. Now, we are seeing strange errors in our dovecot logfiles. It seems to happen randomely, but always on the same mailboxes. The following error is logged: pop3(username): Jan 27 17:26:46 Error: Error syncing mbox file /var/spool/mail/szameitatd: LF not found where expected pop3(username): Jan 27 17:26:46 Error: Error indexing mbox file /var/spool/mail/username: LF not found where expected pop3(username): Jan 27 17:26:46 Error: Couldn't open INBOX: Internal error occured. Refer to server log for more information. [2005-01-27 17:26:46] People having that problem are able to login, but cannot retrieve new mails. Clients simply says no new mails are available. We tried to remove completely the mailbox file, waiting for procmail to create a new, but after a few minutes, the problem happens again. We cannot reproduce the bug with a particular mail; it seems the problem come from nowhere. Verbosing procmail didn't helped either. The only way to fix it when this happens, is to manually edit the file, and remove the first line feed at the very beginning of the mailbox file. I saw one post in the mailing list with the same problem, and we tried the "mail_extra_groups = mail" workaround, but that didn't help either. I actually think this has nothing to do with my problem :) We have around 500 mailboxes, and only a couple of them (3-5) do have the problem. Any idea how this can happen ? Any suggestions ? Thanks !

[Dovecot] Problem with incorrect permissions with shared folders
by Dave Hatton 30 Jan '05

30 Jan '05

Hi, I'm seeing strange permissions when using an email client to create a new sub folder in a shared folder. This is dovecot-1.0test61 I have a directory /data/mail/shared owner=root group=shared permissions=2770 I have a file /data/mail/shared/dovecot-shared owner=root group-shared permissions=2660 User fred in in group shared (in /etc/group) My understanding is that now in my client I can create a folder called test and so I should have Folder /data/mail/shared/.test owner=fred group-shared permissions=2770 What I actually get is Folder /data/mail/shared/.test owner=fred group-shared permissions=2700 So dovecot doesn't appear to be honouring the permissions on dovecot-shared when creating folders. Also, when creating a folder in a shared folder should the create process automatically copy the dovecot-shared file down to the new folder to allow this to be shared as well? Thanks Daveh

[Dovecot] Problem using passwd-file authentication: does not read UID, GID

30 Jan '05

There seems to be a problem when setting the default authentication method to passwd-file when they use the same file (which they frequently do): auth default { mechanisms = plain userdb = passwd-file /passwd passdb = passwd-file /passwd ... } The log files show dovecot: Jan 11 14:41:40 Info: Dovecot v1.0-test60 starting up dovecot: Jan 11 14:41:49 Info: auth(default): userdb(test,127.0.0.1): uid=0 gid=0 home= mail= dovecot: Jan 11 14:41:49 Error: Logins with UID 0 not permitted (user test) dovecot: Jan 11 14:41:49 Info: imap-login: Internal login failure: test [127.0.0.1] When userdb-passwd-file.c::passwd_file_init() is called, it compares the userdb passwd-file to the passdb passwd-file. If they are the same, it resets the time stamp to force a re-read of the password database during the next look-up. However, I believe it also needs to reset the userdb_pwf->userdb flag to TRUE or else it won't pick up the UID and GID and will use 0 instead: /* resync */ userdb_pwf->userdb = TRUE; /* Was FALSE in v1.0-test60 */ userdb_pwf->stamp = 0; Joseph Tam <tam(a)math.ubc.ca>

[Dovecot] STARTTLS and inetd

Hi! When running dovecot from inetd (as per the instructions on http://wiki.dovecot.org/InetdInstall) imap-login and pop3-login thinks that TLS is enabled when in fact it isn't (we're connecting to port 110 and port 143, so the --ssl parameter isn't present). The reason for that is found in login-common/main.c:main(): > if (fd != -1) > (void)client_create(fd, &ip, TRUE); I added a flag which I set when ssl_proxy_new() is successfully called (see the following diff) and it seems to work fine.

[Dovecot] Dovecot shared folder woes
by Dave Hatton 30 Jan '05

30 Jan '05

Hi I'm new to Dovecot so please be gentle with me. I did a search through the list archives but couldn't quite work out my problem. I have Dovecot installed and running and I can connect to it from my email clients (Outlook and Evolution) ... so looking good so far. I would like to setup three types (groups?) of mail store 1. A per user - e.g. Fred, Harry, Betty. (For my purposes they all have Unix Accounts on the mail server) 2. A public store which can contain folders that may be read and written to by any user who is authenticated 3. A per group store (e.g. accounts, sales, marketing) that may be read and written to by any user who is authenticated and is in the specified group Firstly, should this be possible with Dovecot? I have tried the following dovecot.conf parameters which I thought should do the trick ... --------------------- cut ------------------------- ### this should give each user a mail store default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/%lu/%u/Maildir ### Create Public mail store namespace public { separator = / prefix = Public/ location = /var/mail/public inbox = no hidden = no } ### Create mail store for accounts namespace shared { separator = / prefix = Accounts/ location = /var/mail/accounts inbox = no hidden = no } ### Create mail store for sales namespace shared { separator = / prefix = Sales/ location = /var/mail/sales inbox = no hidden = no } --------------------- cut ------------------------- I then: 1. created the directories /var/mail/{public,accounts,sales} 2. chgrp each one to a group (public,accounts,sales respectively) 3. chmod 770 each one 4. created a dovecot-shared in each one - chgrp and chmod appropriately And then restarted the server Now my problem When I try to connect from a client it fails and the tcp/ip connection dies When I look in /var/log/mail I see and error 89 (which I understand is a generic error) and IMAP(fred): Failed to create storage for 'Public/' with data: /var/mail/public What and I doing wrong?

[Dovecot] mutt's new mail error
by Frédéric Gobry 30 Jan '05

30 Jan '05

Hi, I use dovecot 0.99.13-3 (debian testing) in conjunction with mutt (1.5.6-20040907+2, also debian), and mutt keeps reporting new mails in my subscribed folders, even when none is available. I've seen a report from december 2003 which seems to correspond http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2003-December/002741.html In this thread, it seems that if I don't use INDEX=MEMORY, I should not suffer from the problem. My config uses default_mail_env = maildir:~/Mail:INDEX=/var/indexes/%d/%n Do you have a hint regarding this problem ? Would a traffic dump be useful ?

[Dovecot] Help with Outlook2003 hanging on receiving email with attachments
by John Suter 30 Jan '05

30 Jan '05

I have one user running Outlook 2003 that hangs up when receiving emails with attachments. He is connecting using POP3. It's almost as if something is timing out and closing the connection. The client is on a 1500/256 DSL connection and the server is on a 768/768 fractional T-1. I have other users that connect with Outlook/POP3 without any problems. I have done a fresh install of Windows/Outlook to make sure it's not a client machine problem. Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated.

[Dovecot] maildir and /var/spool/mail/$USER
by Rob Campbell 29 Jan '05

29 Jan '05

I was told to use dovecot because it was easier than cyrus. I just upgraded from fc1 to fc3. I am not sure what fc1 used but I think it was cyrus and it worked perfect out of the box no configurations to do. The new cyrus-imapd is not so simple so I got dovecot. I see examples saying to use mbox=~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u but when I try that I cannot map mail folders that reside under ~/mail. I have tried default_mail_env = maildir:~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u which is the setup i have now. I get this error when trying to connect via evolution error while scanning folders in "IMAP server localhost" imap command failed. invalid mask. when I use default_mail_env = maildir:~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u the error i get is: This store does not support subscriptions or they are not enabled. I have an Inbox Junk and Trash folder under that account. When I set up outlook as pop3 it says it connects fine but it doesn't download any mail. When I try to subscribe to folders via Outlook it says that it cannot connect.

[Dovecot] mbox slowness in dovecot-1.0-test61
by Todd Burroughs 28 Jan '05

28 Jan '05

Hi, We're trying out Dovecot to see if it's a good replacement for UW-imapd. It seems to be very slow in opening an mbox file, even after it's been indexed. (I mean way slower than UW) Here's some info on the system: Dovecot-1.0-test61 SuSE 8.1, Linux kernel 2.4 Using NFS to access mail. I've tried turning off mmap, using dotlocking, using fcntl locking (lockd, etc. are running), mbox_dirty_syncs and mbox_very_dirty_syncs. Also tried putting the cache files on local disk. Compile options where basically default. I'm accessing it with pine, using several filters which tend to do SEARCH commands. Has anyone come across this? Maybe I'm missing something obvious???

[Dovecot] Moving to Dovecot
by Matt Saunders 27 Jan '05

27 Jan '05

Hi there, I'm currently running IMAP with Courier and POP3 with Solid-POP3d. I'd like to migrate IMAP and POP3 to both use Dovecot. All this works fine in testing, except for the fact that I have two types of users for legacy reasons. One type of user has a Maildir-style inbox at ~/Maildir/ The other type has a mbox-style inbox at ~/Mailbox Is it possible to make Dovecot look for both? As far as I can see I'd need default_mail_env to accept multiple names, something like this: default_mail_env = maildir:~/Maildir/ mbox:~/Mailbox ...but it doesn't, so I'm stuck. :-( By default, Dovecot would work for me if I moved all my users' ~/Mailbox files to ~/mail/inbox but I really don't want to have to do that if at all possible as that'll break other custom stuff. Does anyone have any ideas? [ Apologies if this is a FAQ - I've had a good Google around and a look at the mail archives but can't find the info. ] TIA, Matt. -- Matt Saunders http://www.yoyo.org/matts/contacts/ "This is getting very silly.

[Dovecot] dovecot Maildir issue
by Tadghe Danu 26 Jan '05

26 Jan '05

I'm working on switching a domain from a Cyrus+postfix+procmail to Dovecot+postfix+procmail (using Maildir). It works great, except one small problem. I cannot figure out what the permissions for my Maildir directories should be. Can anyone point me to a doc or just a few pointers on what the permissions of the Maildirs should be? The only way I seem to be able to make this config work is to make the Maildirs world read+write. I can't exactly roll out a config like that :). I have postfix+procmail delivering to per user Maildirs under /var/mail. The permissions on /var/mail (pulled from the Wiki) are mail:/var/mail# ls -l /var/ |grep mail drwxrwxrwt 7 root mail 4096 Jan 25 22:37 mail The user Maildirs are set as: mail:/var/mail# ls -l /var/mail/ |grep tadghe drwxr-xrwt 2 tadghe tadghe 4096 Jan 25 22:36 tadghe When I try and access a mail box I get this in the logs an 25 22:35:34 mail imap(tadghe): opendir(/var/mail/tadghe/tmp) failed: Permission denied Jan 25 22:35:34 mail imap(tadghe): opendir() failed with file /var/mail/tadghe/new: Permission denied Jan 25 22:35:34 mail imap(tadghe): opendir() failed with file /var/mail/tadghe/new: Permission denied Jan 25 22:35:34 mail imap(tadghe): opendir(/var/mail/tadghe/tmp) failed: Permission denied Tadghe

Hi, I have dovecot with Maildir installed and running. No problems. I use kmail on both desktop and laptop with cachedimap configuration. kmail is configured to look for new mail every two minutes. Now my question: When both maschines are running and kmail is started then two clients access the same Maildir on the server at the same time. Is this possible or can this corrupt the Maildir directory. TIA Guenther

[Dovecot] Trouble getting TLS to work
by Remy Zandwijk 24 Jan '05

24 Jan '05

Hi. I've Dovecot running on Solaris 9. Logging in without SSL or TLS works. Logging in with SSL (port 993) works. Logging in with TLS does not work. Tried Eudora, Thunderbird and Outlook Express, but none of them could log in. Outlook returns an error message like: "PLAIN authentication failed. None of the authentication methods supported by your IMAP server are supported on this computer.". Since SSL is working, I think I can savely say the SSL parameters are OK. My config includes the lines: disable_plaintext_auth = no auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = passwd auth_passdb = pam What could cause this problem?? Regards, Remy

[Dovecot] Experimental FreeBSD ports / packages for test61
by Dominic Marks 23 Jan '05

23 Jan '05

Hello, If anyone would like it I have provided a Dovecot 1.0 test61 port and package for FreeBSD 5.3 here. I made them for my own experimentation but thought they might be interesting to others I suppose. http://www.helenmarks.co.uk/~dom/dovecot/ These deviate from the stock test61 because I've updated and added a patch I wrote a long time ago for ioloop kqueue/kevent support in Dovecot. I have no configure skill at all so you get it even if you don't choose it in the options dialogue. It seems to work still, I tested it very lightly, but I don't use day to day, so YMMV. To use the shar file: gzip -d <path/to/dovecot.shar.gz> shar <path/to/dovecot.shar> cd dovecot make install To use the package: pkg_add -r http://www.helenmarks.co.uk/~dom/dovecot/dovecot-1.0-test61.tbz Cheers, -- Dominic

[Dovecot] Disallow creation of (sub) folders
by Remy Zandwijk 23 Jan '05

23 Jan '05

Hi. Is there a way to prevent users from creating new mailboxes? In our setup, we've several standard mailboxes (maildir format). Users should use these and only these. I allready tried to chown the base directory, e.g. /var/mailstore/r/remy/, to root, and delivery still works then, but procmail chown's this back to the users' name. I have a workaround by using symlinks, but I think this is a lame solution. Another question: when is Dovecot 1.0 supposed to be released for production purposes? Regards, Remy Zandwijk

[Dovecot] Strange behaviour with multiple auth channels
by Søren P. Skou 23 Jan '05

23 Jan '05

Hey all Just upgraded to Test-61 and at first everything looked like it worked without a hitch, I could log in and check mail (yay! ;-) ). Since I could log in, I never suspected anything would be amiss. Later one of my users told me he could no longer log in, regardless what he tried. Password error I thought and told him to go change his password, but then he explained he had not changed anything, and that his pop3 client just started complaining. Ok, time to go looking - I compared the dovecot.conf to the example from the tarball, nothing seemed as if it had changed. Then I started fiddling around to see if I could get any pattern. At that point I had two auth channels: auth default { mechanisms = plain userdb = sql /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sql.conf passdb = sql /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sql.conf user = mail } auth localuser { mechanisms = plain userdb = passwd home=/home/%u/Mail passdb = passwd home=/home/%u/Mail } Strangely enough I could see it connecting to the SQL database, I would have expected to see at least some queries when it checked for the user. But no. So I changed the configuration to: auth default { mechanisms = plain userdb = passwd home=/home/%u/Mail passdb = passwd home=/home/%u/Mail } auth virtualuser { mechanisms = plain userdb = sql /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sql.conf passdb = sql /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sql.conf user = mail } Lo and behold, my virtual users could log in - but now localusers could no longer. I've since then tried changing the auth default to auth localuser, but little does it do - I'm sort of out of my bounds here, everything works, but only if it is the second auth. The first channel seems to be ignored. So I tried adding more channels seeing what would happen. My current configuration looks like this: auth default { mechanisms = plain userdb = sql /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sql.conf passdb = sql /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sql.conf user = mail } auth localuser { mechanisms = plain userdb = passwd home=/home/%u/Mail passdb = passwd home=/home/%u/Mail } auth virtualuser { mechanisms = plain userdb = sql /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sql.conf passdb = sql /usr/local/etc/dovecot/sql.conf user = mail } As I suspected it grabs hold of localuser and uses that one. Any suggestions or "Well d'uh! you're missing...." would be welcome ;-) Friendly greetings S. P. Skou -- GPG Key: 8E58ACB3

[Dovecot] Evolution Slowness Fix
by Michael David Joy 22 Jan '05

22 Jan '05

Well, I seem to have tracked down what's going on with Evolution and Dovecot. It seems that Evolution has defaulted to checked for spam server side using Spamd on Fedora Core 3 without downloading the mail. It seems that spamd is the culprit in all this as it's trying to analyze pop3 mail without simply downloading all the new mail. I turned off the spam checking option in evolution and the crawling (read 5-10 min) email downloads stopped. I guess I should have noticed that this happened when I upgraded from Fedora Core 2 to 3, but we upgraded dovecot around the same time. While it still shouldn't be taking 10 min to download email (1 min a mail), at least I know what's going on now. Michael

[Dovecot] Kerberos/GSSAPI Auth Mechanism?
by John Waller 20 Jan '05

20 Jan '05

I have been reading that there may be a patch floating around to enable krb5 auth in dovecot <1.0, namely 0.99.10.8 (openbsd port). It could be I have something misconfigured, for openbsd supports kerberos and most programs which use the operating system's auth features use kerberos transparently through login(1). If there is a patch, I would be very interested in testing it. -- John Waller ganreshnu(a)gmail.com

[Dovecot] problems deleting folders
by Danny Sung 20 Jan '05

20 Jan '05

I've been having this problem for quite some time now of not being able to remove folders. I'm using: Fedora Core 2 dovecot-0.99.10.4-4 And dovecot is setup as using imaps (w/ SSL) and mbox files (instead of maildir). I've done a small amount of tracing to see what the problem is, and it looks like what happens is when all messages in a folder is removed, there's still a 0-byte file lying around. And the "delete" command issued from mail clients (I've used both Thunderbird and MS Outlook) end up trying to throw the file into Trash instead of somehow sending a delete command. This then results in an error. Maybe this is normal IMAP behavior, I don't know. But that's what looks like is happening. If anyone knows of a good solution to this, I would really appreciate it. I'd rather avoid using maildir but if anyone knows whether this will definitely solve the problem, then I'll make the switch. Thanks

[Dovecot] configure problem with MySQL 4

Hi, the configure mysql detection doesn't work with MySQL 4.0.x from MySQL AB. Detail information: dovecot 0.99.13, MySQL-devel-4.0.21-0 from MySQL AB. ./configure --with-mysql ... checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... (cached) no This version of MySQL need to be linked with '-lz'. The configure script check for mysql both with and without '-lz' but the test result is cached ... so the test with -lz failed. The included patch helps me compiling dovecot (only check mysql with -lz). I know that this workaround is not a general solution. Full configure output and config.log available on demand. Execpting this problem, dovecot works fine for us (RedHat, MySQL auth, maildir). -- Laurent Papier - 03 88 75 80 50 Admin. systeme - Sdv Plurimedia - <http://www.sdv.fr/>

Normally, the vacation message works with the default mail server (MTA). In my case, I use the vacation program. Postfix delivers to the local mail user and if they have a .forward with the vacation info on it gets called. For a truly virtual setup that does not require unique uids on the filesystem there is gnarwl. Gnarwl is a program written in C that does vacation messages for virtual users. It works with Postfix, which is simplier that sendmail. :) >------------------------------ > >Message: 2 >Date: Thu, 13 Jan 2005 23:13:48 -0700 >From: "Del Stoliker" <dstoliker(a)alphagraphics.com> >Subject: [Dovecot] Virtual users vacation notices and forwards >To: <dovecot(a)dovecot.org> >Message-ID: <200501140613.j0E6DfZ9012233(a)smtp2.alphagraphics.com> >Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > >I'm in the process of moving from UW-IMAP to dovecot.

[Dovecot] 0.99.14-rc1
by Timo Sirainen 19 Jan '05

19 Jan '05

http://dovecot.org/rc/ Two backports from 1.0-tests and pretty important fix for mbox users if you're not already filtering X-UID header somewhere. For 1.0-tests you can fix it for now by applying patches http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2005-January/004046.html and http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2005-January/004047.html - Message address fields are now parsed differently, fixing some issues with spaces. Affects only clients which use FETCH ENVELOPE command. - Message MIME parser was somewhat broken with missing MIME boundaries - mbox: Don't allow X-UID headers in mails to override the UIDs we would otherwise set. Too large values can break clients and possibly Dovecot itself.
