[Dovecot] LDA questions
by Romer Ventura 08 Dec '08

08 Dec '08

Hello, I am looking at the docs and I see this: Problems with deliver Namespaces are supported with v1.1 and later. With v1.0 and older versions mails can be delivered only to mailboxes specified by the mail_location setting. But in the dovecot.conf I see: # NOTE: Namespaces currently work ONLY with IMAP! POP3 and LDA currently ignore # namespaces completely, they use only the mail_location setting. I am running 1.1.7 so is that a typo in the dovecot.conf or the wiki page..? Also, I got postfix+dovecot configure to authenticate to Active Directory using pam_krb5 and I am able to login and send emails with pop3 or imap, but unable to receive emails since postfix complaints about the user not being found in the local recipient table. Now I have made a few changes, but I cant get to see deliver complaint, all I see is: postfix/smtpd[19924]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from ............: 550 5.1.1 <test1(a)domain.com>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table; So I think that it is not being passed to deliver... Master.cf has: dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DR user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -f ${sender} -d ${recipient} Main.cf has: virtual_mailbox_domains = your.domain.here virtual_transport = dovecot Any ideas..?

[Dovecot] Just some user input
by Brandon Lamb 08 Dec '08

08 Dec '08

Hi Timo, You may remember some of my mails, I was having unusual high load issues using pop3 with dovecot over nfs, and unusual being the load on anywhere from 1 to 4 servers would run at 2 to 4 for a week then all of a sudden would spike to 60 and higher (saw 150 once). I have been banging my head on the wall for the last 1.5 to 2 months since switching from courier to dovecot, the imap has worked great but the pop3 was a problem out the door. Anyway, I finally tried loading dovecot directly on our raid, all loads across the board dropped to the floor. The single P4 3ghz purrs along at an easy 0.30 load where the 1 to 4 quad core boxes with brand new hardware were loading up to 60 when using nfs. So, my experience has been that maildir, nfs and dovecot as the pop3 server was unusable. I wasnt really sure this whole time, it seemed odd that a single P4 box using nfs and courier pop3 could handle the entire system load but dovecot with the same and more quad cores fell over was weird. Anyway, this is totally not meant as a bashing or anything, just information. Im not a C programmer so I really cant offer anything but my input/observations. Maybe the pop3 part of dovecot isnt really given much love or people are mostly just interested in the imap server? Or maybe most people dont use nfs? Totally just assumptions here. A definite positive here though, after moving dovecot directly to the raid server, wow, our mail TOTALLY hauls ass now. Two of our managers both noticed the huge speed increase. One of them uses pop3 and leave messages on server and has almost 4,000 messages in the inbox on the server, his webmail now loads literally instantly, i click login and count 1 second. That is amazingly fast. I dont have any hard numbers, but before our upgrades his "feeling" was that he seems to remember it taking up to 30 seconds for webmail to load his mailbox. that is an incredible difference. Our webmail uses imap by the way, so this is probably a combination of moving from nfs and switching from courier to dovecot. Ok thanks for your great hard work and sorry for the novel size post.

[Dovecot] catching authentication failures with LDAP backend
by Udo Rader 06 Dec '08

06 Dec '08

Hi, we have recently been hit by a couple of brute force password attacks against dovecot. So what I want to do now is to add dovecot to fail2ban in order to block further attacks. However, I don't seem to be able to find out password verifification failures for our LDAP based user data. The only thing I see are loads of lines like these in the logfiles: -------CUT------- dovecot: Nov 30 09:09:51 Info: pop3-login: Disconnected: user=<ludovic>, method=PLAIN, rip=217.147.235.52, lip=81.16.98.99 dovecot: Nov 30 09:09:51 Info: pop3-login: Disconnected: user=<luna>, method=PLAIN, rip=217.147.235.52, lip=81.16.98.99 dovecot: Nov 30 09:09:51 Info: pop3-login: Disconnected: user=<luke>, method=PLAIN, rip=217.147.235.52, lip=81.16.98.99 -------CUT------- Googling the web I found that PAM based authentication obviously gives a matchable error message, but for some reasons the ldap backend does not - or does it? Any pointers highly appreciated :-) dovecot -n says this: -------CUT------- # 1.0.15: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log protocols: imaps imap pop3 listen: 81.16.98.99 ssl_listen(default): 81.16.98.99 ssl_listen(imap): 81.16.98.99 ssl_listen(pop3): ssl_cert_file: /etc/bestsolution/ssl/mail.bestsolution.at-cert.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/bestsolution/ssl/mail.bestsolution.at-key.pem ssl_parameters_regenerate: 24 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 first_valid_uid: 9 mail_access_groups: mail mail_privileged_group: mail default_mail_env: mbox:~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mail_location: mbox:~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mmap_disable: yes lock_method: dotlock maildir_copy_with_hardlinks: yes mail_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 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 pop3_uidl_format(default): pop3_uidl_format(imap): pop3_uidl_format(pop3): %v.%u auth default: mechanisms: plain digest-md5 cram-md5 login passdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf userdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode: 432 user: postfix group: postfix -------CUT------- -- Udo Rader, CTO http://www.bestsolution.at

Re: [Dovecot] Max OS X 10.5 Mail + Dovecot

Turning off SSL fixes the problem. Is there any way to make it work automatically, or do I just have to get the certificates signed? Has anyone figured this one out before? I have an unsigned SSL certificate with Dovecot and connect fine using OSX.5's Mail.app. What do you mean, "unable to connect"? Do you really mean "unable to connect", or do you mean, "an error message comes up every time they try to connect"? If its the latter complaint, please see this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA22383 I know it says 10.3 Mail, but the steps to follow are essentially unchanged between 10.3 and 10.5.

Hi, People using the new OS X mail client are unable to connect to the unsigned dovecot-mkcert.sh certificate on my Dovecot installations. Turning off SSL fixes the problem. Is there any way to make it work automatically, or do I just have to get the certificates signed? Has anyone figured this one out before? Thanks, Chris

[Dovecot] quota warning for fs quota
by Florian Effenberger 05 Dec '08

05 Dec '08

Hello, I configured my Dovecot to use filesystem (fs) quota. It works fine, the correct free/used space and percentage is being shown to the client. However, the warning feature doesn't seem to work, no mail is being sent, although executing the script standalone works fine. Is quota warning for fs quota supported? I use Dovecot 1.0.10 (Ubuntu package). Thanks, Florian

[Dovecot] Auth_username_format question
by Romer Ventura 05 Dec '08

05 Dec '08

Hello again, I have change authentication to LDAP from Kerberos due to recent changes to my plans and I am having a little problem getting the malbox created in desired path. At the moment the home folders are being created in: /home/vmail/DOMAIN.COM/%Ln and it worked great with kerberos, but with LDAP the domain part is missing so I did the following: Auth_username_format = %Ln Then I did: # telnet localhost pop3 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK Dovecot ready. user test4(a)domain.com +OK pass password +OK Logged in. But I saw in the logs the following: dovecot: auth(default): master out: USER 1 test4 uid=1001 gid=1000 home=/home/vmail//test4 The domain was missing.. So does it mean that auth_username_format dictates what dovecot will use, not only for the authentication part, but for everything else as well..? To me it seems that once the username has been formatted it forgets everything that doesn¹t constitute part of the specified format. Or am I misunderstanding the entire concept..? How cant I preserve the domain part so that the homes can be placed in the desired location: /home/vmail/%d/%u...? Thanks
