[Dovecot] index files created improperly in dovecot 1.2.16
by john roman 23 Oct '12

23 Oct '12

Greetings, It seems to be a problem that ive seen occasionally on the web with few results as to a solution, but im experiencing it as well. Namely, dovecot creates index logs for users with a 600 permission, when it should create with a 700 permission. My indexes are stored in /var/indexes with the directory at 777 permission, the users are identified in MySQL. The error is as follows: Oct 23 09:03:13 mailer01 dovecot: POP3 (johnr(a)testing.com) stat(/var/indexes/j/johnr(a)testing.com/.INBOX) failed: Permission denied (euid=10509305(x10509305) egid=81607(pg199275) missing +x perm: /var/indexes/j) the permissions of /var/indexes/j are 700, owned by the euid and egid effectively. the only file that does not have this permission is in /var/indexes/j/johnr(a)testing.com/.INBOX/dovecot.index.log, at 600.

[Dovecot] 76Gb to 146Gb [Resolved]
by Spyros Tsiolis 23 Oct '12

23 Oct '12

Hello all, I would like to thank you all for your kind replies and feedback in regards to migrating from a smaller hdd to a bigger one (namely from 72gb to 146gb). I finally found a painless way of doing this. Since I believe that this is still an off-topic post, if anyone is interested in the solution i've adopted for this, let me know by replying to me privately. If, however, you don't mind me posting here, let me know. Many many thanks go to Alexander Hoogerhuis, the "mad Norwegian" :-) who helped me on this too much to describe here. Alex, you are a true sport. Thank you again people. All the Best, spyros ---- "I merely function as a channel that filters music through the chaos of noise" - Vangelis

[Dovecot] (new) director issues in 2.1.10
by Kelsey Cummings 23 Oct '12

23 Oct '12

Timo - I upgraded to 2.1.10 on our director servers two nights ago and apart from errors associated with the directors processes restarting everything looked great for ~24 hours until I failed our the real servers last night to update the nfs mount options for the spools. I followed the suggested procedure for each backend server, just run on one of the directors, which seemed to work as expected. doveadm director add x.x.x.x 0 doveadm director flush x.x.x.x The following errors on the directors that started after this went unnoticed until this AM. director: User bb host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 30 secs (Ring synced for 36 secs) director: User cc host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 48 secs (Ring synced for 66 secs, user refreshed 12 secs ago) director: User dd host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 124 secs (Ring synced for 119 secs, weak user, user refreshed 155 secs ago) director: User ee host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 79 secs (Ring synced for 119 secs, weak user, user refreshed 113 secs ago) ... User ff host lookup failed: Timeout - queued for 30 secs (Ring synced for 7427 secs, weak user, user refreshed 620 secs ago) This continued, combined with occasional login timeouts (as reported by some internal imap clients.) The login delays/timeouts got bad enough that our load balancers dropped both the servers while I was investigating. They seem to be okay after being restarted. -K

[Dovecot] auth timeout state=2, bad?
by Bernhard Schmidt 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

Hello, we run Dovecot 2.1.7 as SASL backend for our Postfix SMTP-AUTH farm and see this error message occasionally Oct 22 16:15:32 lxmhs52 dovecot: auth: PLAIN(?,xx.xx.xx.xx): Request 0.21 timeouted after 150 secs, state=2 Since it is mostly the same IP repeating I'm assuming it's a client issue. Is that correct? What could cause this? Can we safely ignore it? Thanks, Bernhard

[Dovecot] Marking all mail in one folder of public mailbox as read
by Frerich Raabe 22 Oct '12

22 Oct '12

Hi, I'm running Dovecot 1.2.17 on FreeBSD 9 to serve an archive of a few internal mailinglists. The archive is implemented using a public namespace: namespace private { separator = / prefix = inbox = yes } namespace public { separator = / prefix = Lists/ location = maildir:/home/vmail/lists/Maildir:CONTROL=~/Maildir/lists:INDEX=~/Maildir/lists subscriptions = no } As you can see, the CONTROL/INDEX files are stored per-user to allow private \Seen flags. The different mailinglists are all sent to the 'lists' user which has a Sieve script to file them into different folders, so I have directories on my harddisk like /home/vmail/lists/Maildir/.somelist /home/vmail/lists/Maildir/.anotherlist Now, I'd like to mark the mail in *one* of those folders as \Seen by default. If the INDEX files weren't per-user, it would simply be a matter of using 'addflag "\Seen";' in the Sieve script of the lists user. Alas, this has no effect. Hence my question - how can I have the mail of just one mailinglist get marked as "read" for all users? So far, the only option I see is to add a second public namespace, with a different prefix - and this namespace doesn't use private CONTROL/INDEX files. However, I'd like to keep using the "Lists" prefix if possible to avoid too many changes to the clients. -- Frerich Raabe - raabe(a)froglogic.com www.froglogic.com - Multi-Platform GUI Testing
