[Dovecot] Sieve and ManageSieve for Dovecot v2.0 merged into one repository
by Stephan Bosch 13 Jan '10

13 Jan '10

Hi, I've merged the Mercurial repositories for Sieve and ManageSieve for Dovecot v2.0 into one repository: http://hg.rename-it.nl/dovecot-2.0-pigeonhole This simplifies the build process significantly. It also allows tightly integrating the implementation of the script storage with the main Sieve library, enabling the possibility to implement alternate means of script storage, like for instance a SQL or LDAP database. Building ManageSieve is still optional as outlined in the INSTALL file. The old v2.0 repositories will be archived soon. I'm slowly but surely progressing towards a first Pigeonhole release for Dovecot v2.0. Regards, Stephan

[Dovecot] using dovecot deliver
by Per Laine 13 Jan '10

13 Jan '10

Hi all! This is my first posting to the list and I really could use some help in getting postfix using dovecot as virtual_transport. I get an error in dovecot-deliver.log that says "Can't connect to auth server at /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot: Permission denied" Im using postfix as MTA with two virtual domains and virtual users. This is my dovecot -n output: # 1.1.11: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.31-17-generic-pae i686 Ubuntu 9.10 ext4 base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ log_path: /var/log/dovecot info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot.info log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imap pop3 imaps pop3s managesieve ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/smtpd.crt ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/smtpd.key disable_plaintext_auth: no 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 login_executable(managesieve): /usr/lib/dovecot/managesieve-login valid_chroot_dirs: /var/spool/vmail mail_location: maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n mail_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 mail_executable(managesieve): /usr/lib/dovecot/managesieve 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 mail_plugin_dir(managesieve): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/managesieve sieve_storage(default): sieve_storage(imap): sieve_storage(pop3): sieve_storage(managesieve): ~/sieve sieve(default): sieve(imap): sieve(pop3): sieve(managesieve): ~/.dovecot.sieve auth default: mechanisms: plain login verbose: yes passdb: driver: passwd-file args: /etc/dovecot/passwd userdb: driver: passwd-file args: /etc/dovecot/users socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix plugin: sieve: ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir: ~/sieve Kind regards Pelle

[Dovecot] Allow POP3 per Domain
by Hauke Hagedorn 13 Jan '10

13 Jan '10

Hi List, I wonder, if it is possible to "switch" POP3 on or off for specific domains. Actually I want to disallow POP3-logins for a certain domain, whereas users can still login into a webinterface via IMAP. Curently I use Dovecot 1.1.11 on current Ubuntu 9.10 with a mySQL backend for authentication. With kind regards Hauke

[Dovecot] problems running dsync

got it, I have extdata working fine now for simple commands like redirect. vacation doesn't seem to be working properly - in that a message is not returned to the sender. I'll continue to test this with and without extdata and report back if I still can't get this to work by the end of my day (~18:00 @ UTC+11) I have also updated the wiki with sieve plugin testing information http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sieve/Dovecot "Script Compling with Sieve Plugins" Cheers, -Martin Foster Stephan Bosch wrote : > Martin F.

[Dovecot] Discard duplicate messages at delivery?
by Nicolas KOWALSKI 12 Jan '10

12 Jan '10

Hello, I am using dovecot 1.2.9, and the sieve plugin for filtering incoming messages into specific folders. The MTA is postfix, and deliver is called using the "mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver" directive. Is it possible to make dovecot's deliver discard duplicate messages? With cyrus there is a duplicatesuppression directive which works well (http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/imapd/overview.html#duplicate) With procmail, this can be done with the following recipe, but I did not found an equivalent for dovecot: # One often receives duplicate messages for cross-postings to mailing # lists, or explicit replies to a post from you in addition to the # mailing list message. # # The following recipe eliminates all duplicate messages. It tells # formail(1) to keep a cache file of the Message-IDs of the most # recent messages you've received. Since Message-IDs are guaranteed # unique for distinct messages, they are ideally suited to weed out # duplicates. # :0 Wh: msgid.lock | formail -D 65536 .saves.msgid Thanks, -- Nicolas

[Dovecot] Silent migration from mbox to maildir?
by Götz Reinicke - IT-Koordinator 12 Jan '10

12 Jan '10

Hi, after migrating to a new hardware (which is soo soooo mutch faster than the old one) I start to think about migrating from mbox to maildir. I'v read some docs and wikies and some questions are unanswered or maybe I skip the answers: - Is it possible to migrate the mboxes "silent" e.g. if a user logs in the mbox is converted? - regarding the Namespaces wiki article, it is possible to mix mbox and Maildir for one user. Is it possible to use this setup for all newly created accounts? or - Is it possible to have maildir set up for all newly created accounts while the old accounts still use mbox? Thanks for any suggestion and best regards, Götz -- Götz Reinicke IT-Koordinator Tel. +49 7141 969 420 Fax +49 7141 969 55 420 E-Mail goetz.reinicke(a)filmakademie.de Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg GmbH Akademiehof 10 71638 Ludwigsburg www.filmakademie.de Eintragung Amtsgericht Stuttgart HRB 205016 Vorsitzende des Aufsichtsrats: Prof. Dr. Claudia Hübner Staatsrätin für Demographischen Wandel und für Senioren im Staatsministerium Geschäftsführer: Prof. Thomas Schadt

[Dovecot] Dovecot Quota Problem
by Ken Price 12 Jan '10

12 Jan '10

I'm using Dovecot LDA with Exim. I'm also using Dictionary Quotas in a MySQL database. I want to avoid backscatter completely, so I set "quota_full_tempfail = yes" and handle quota checking in the Exim RCPT ACL during the SMTP session. The problem lies in the case where a user's account is nearly full. Smaller messages will continue to come through, but a larger message would get queued for retry since it will push the account over quota. I need Dovecot's quota to exhibit the same behavior as Exim's "quota_is_inclusive=false". >From Exim docs: quota_is_inclusive=false When this is done, the check for exceeding the quota does not include the current message. Thus, deliveries continue until the quota has been exceeded; thereafter, no futher messages are delivered. Any ideas on how I can implement this inside of Dovecot? Thanks, -Ken Price
