[Dovecot] Gmail style conversations
by Romer Ventura 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hello, I am wondering if there is any way to support Gmail style conversation when using Dovecot? Someway of associating all inbound and sent emails..? I know that some clients let you display the emails in "conversation" which kinda does what Gmail does, however, it does not associate the Sent emails with it.

[Dovecot] sieve problem after upgrade to 2.1.12
by Daniel Funke 03 Dec '12

Hi, I have a sieve filter for a mailbox with amavisd-admin mails. if header :regex "Subject" "^INVALID HEADER" { fileinto "INVALID HEADER"; } After the upgrade to dovecot 2.1.12 this filter doesn't work for some (16) messages with this subject. For 424 messages it worked correct. Any ideas where to look? Bye Daniel

[Dovecot] Thunderbird SSL/TLS client authentication fails
by Roger Hunen 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hi, This is my first post to the list, so greetings to you all! I am seeking your help with SSL/TLS client authentication. I currently have the following setup: * Server: - Debian Squeeze (fully patched) - OpenSSL 0.9.8o - Dovecot v2.1.10 (Debian backport package from Wheezy) - SSL listener on port 993 with the Dovecot selfsigned certificate that was created during installation - Virtual users (user(a)domain.net) with password in passwd style file * Client: - Windows XP SP3 (fully patched) - Thunderbird 17.0 - IMAP account using "Normal password" authentication - Roundcube webmail (to be added soon) This works just fine :) ==> I now want to set Thunderbird to use "TLS certificate" authentication so that I can safely expose port 993 to the internet for mobile use. The idea is that clients with a trusted client certificate do not need a password so that I can change my password for Roundcube without having to change passwords on other IMAP clients (Roundcube will connect to localhost without SSL). To do so I did the following: - use XCA (v0.9.3, Windows version) to setup a private root CA with a CRL - export root CA certificate and CRL in PEM format and join them into a ca.pem file (order: certificate, CRL) - configure Dovecot to use the ca.pem file and require a client certificate - use XCA to generate a private key and certificate for commonName=user(a)mydomain.net - import certificate and private key into Thunderbird - change IMAP account setting in Thunderbird to use "TLS Certificate" authentication - When prompted, select the imported certificate to be used for authentication. Unfortunately the authentication fails :( Using "verbose_ssl=yes" I can see in the Dovecot logfile that Thunderbird connects and that the SSL handshake completes successfully. "Valid certificate" is logged for both client certificate and root CA certificate. This looks "so far so good" to me :) The Dovecot log has the following lines at the point of failure: imap-login: Warning: SSL alert: where=0x4004, ret=256: warning close notify [<IP>] imap-login: Warning: SSL alert: where=0x4008, ret=256: warning close notify [<IP>] imap-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=<IP>, lip=<IP>, TLS, session=<ID> (IP address and TLS session ID removed) The last log line ("user=<>") suggests that Dovecot does not try to use the commonName from the client certificate as the username even though (I think) I have configured Dovecot to do so. The relevant lines in the Dovecot configuration are: <config> auth_mechanisms = plain auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes auth_ssl_username_from_cert = yes disable_plaintext_auth = yes protocols = imap ssl = yes ssl_ca = </etc/dovecot/ssl/ca.pem ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_cert_username_field = commonName ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem ssl_parameters_regenerate = 0 ssl_require_crl = yes ssl_verify_client_cert = yes service imap-login { chroot = login process_min_avail = 1 service_count = 1 inet_listener imap { port = 143 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } } </config> Observation: with "auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes" Dovecot requires Thunderbird to send the client certificate even when Thunderbird uses "Normal password" authentication (authentication only fails if I delete the certificate from Thunderbird). So the SSL part looks OK to me. It seems that Dovecot is waiting for the client to logon over the established SSL/TLS connection instead of taking the username from the commonName in the certificate. ==> What could be going wrong here? I can post full config and logfile lines if you wnt to. Except for some possible oversight on my behalf there is nothing secret in there (I just didn't want to add too many lines to this already long post). Regards, -Roger

[Dovecot] Redelivery of mdbox messages to pass through sieve
by Hugh Davenport 01 Dec '12

01 Dec '12

Hey, I've been slack and haven't updated my sieve script for yonks, and finally got round to it. What I was wondering is whether there was a way to basically take all the messages from a folder and pass it through sieve again. I've found earlier messages in this list, but they were for Maildir format, not mdbox which I use now. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Cheers, Hugh

[Dovecot] Maildir conversion
by Aristidis Fesarlis 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

Hi all, I am using Dovecot 1.2.7, and trying to do my first Mbox to Maildir conversion. So I created a small script: > #!/bin/bash > > ls > userlist.txt > > for i in `cat userlist.txt`; do > echo "---------------------"; > echo "Converting user $i..."; > echo "---------------------"; > > su - $i -s /bin/bash -c "/opt/scripts/mb2md.pl -s mail -R"; > su - $i -s /bin/bash -c "/opt/scripts/mb2md.pl -m -s > /var/mail/$i"; > su - $i -s /bin/bash -c "cp ~$i/mail/.subscriptions > ~$i/Maildir/subscriptions"; > done > > rm -f userlist.txt I would like some help with the following: 1. Trying it, I get multiple warnings for some mailboxes like this: > "WARNING: UID from X-UID: header too low. Ignoring it Is this a problem? Or I can ignore it? 2. I understand that I also have to instruct my MDA (procmail) to deliver mail to the new location. I found that I have to create an /etc/procmailrc with the following line: > DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/ My question is: Some users have their own .procmailrc file inside their home directory, to filter mail etc. Their file does not contain the above statement. Would the default procmailrc file be processed for them as well? Or their file takes precedence, causing the default file not to be processed at all? Thank you
