[Dovecot] Marking as Read causes Body.Peek on ALL messages - Reasonable?
by Daniel Watts 13 Aug '08

I've noticed when I select a folder of messages (Thunderbird) and mark them all as read (or unread) it produces the following IMAP transcript: Source Destination Info c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: DONE s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: 20 OK Idle completed. c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 21 uid store 1:20 -Flags (\Seen) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 1 FETCH (UID 1 FLAGS (\Recent NonJunk)) c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 22 UID fetch 2 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 2 FETCH (UID 2 RFC822.SIZE 1339 BODY[] {1339} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 23 UID fetch 3 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 3 FETCH (UID 3 RFC822.SIZE 1342 BODY[] {1342} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 24 UID fetch 5 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 5 FETCH (UID 5 RFC822.SIZE 1344 BODY[] {1344} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 25 UID fetch 6 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 6 FETCH (UID 6 RFC822.SIZE 1350 BODY[] {1350} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 26 UID fetch 7 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 7 FETCH (UID 7 RFC822.SIZE 1344 BODY[] {1344} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 27 UID fetch 8 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 8 FETCH (UID 8 RFC822.SIZE 1325 BODY[] {1325} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 28 UID fetch 9 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 9 FETCH (UID 9 RFC822.SIZE 1323 BODY[] {1323} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 29 UID fetch 10 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 10 FETCH (UID 10 RFC822.SIZE 1338 BODY[] {1338} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 30 UID fetch 11 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 11 FETCH (UID 11 RFC822.SIZE 1333 BODY[] {1333} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 31 UID fetch 12 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 12 FETCH (UID 12 RFC822.SIZE 1344 BODY[] {1344} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 32 UID fetch 13 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 13 FETCH (UID 13 RFC822.SIZE 1335 BODY[] {1335} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 33 UID fetch 15 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 15 FETCH (UID 15 RFC822.SIZE 1323 BODY[] {1323} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 34 UID fetch 16 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 16 FETCH (UID 16 RFC822.SIZE 1325 BODY[] {1325} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 35 UID fetch 17 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 17 FETCH (UID 17 RFC822.SIZE 1333 BODY[] {1333} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 36 UID fetch 18 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 18 FETCH (UID 18 RFC822.SIZE 1327 BODY[] {1327} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 37 UID fetch 19 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 19 FETCH (UID 19 RFC822.SIZE 1343 BODY[] {1343} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 38 UID fetch 20 (UID RFC822.SIZE BODY.PEEK[]) s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: * 20 FETCH (UID 20 RFC822.SIZE 1337 BODY[] {1337} c.c.c.c s.s.s.s Request: 39 IDLE s.s.s.s c.c.c.c Response: + idling NOTE: c.c.c.c = client (thunderbird) s.s.s.s = server (dovecot 1.1.2) Is this reasonable?

[Dovecot] IMAP inbox: cannot delete tagged messages or change their tag
by Epimedia 13 Aug '08

13 Aug '08

Hello, a bit of a problem with Dovecot. Version is 1.0.15 and is a default install (no changes to config) from FC8 repository... except that Dovecot is configured to use Maildir I have a user on the system who uses the tags in Thunderbird (Important, Personal etc). When she tags the messages they cannot be deleted and their tags cannot be changed. When deleting a message from the IMAP inbox it momentarily disappears and moves a copy to the Trash but when the IMAP inbox is reloaded the message reappears. The same happens when I try to change a tag: it comes back with the previous tag. Untagged messages can be freely deleted. Also, this problem does not happen if the messages are in a IMAP folder. They can be freely deleted. The problem seems specific to Dovecot, not Thunderbird, as I am able to tag and delete messages in another IMAP account. Also, accessing the same IMAP account using OS X Mail the messages come back after deleting them. Where should I start looking for a solution to this problem?

[Dovecot] Trying to Hide Namespace - new configuration options?
by Daniel Watts 13 Aug '08

13 Aug '08

Using 1.1.2 We have: # default namespace namespace private { separator = / prefix = inbox = yes #location = maildir:/home/virtual/%h #Maildir } # for backwards compatibility: namespace private { separator = / prefix = mail/ location = maildir:%h/Maildir/ #Maildir hidden = yes list = no } The 'hidden=yes' seemed to do nothing but saw earlier in this list a reply to add 'list=no'. This has worked to hide all folder but we still have /mail/Trash showing and it refuses to go away even after unsubscribing. mail/Trash appears when I set my email client to use folder prefix "mail/". If i set the prefix to blank I only see my Inbox and Deleted folders. Interestingly it shows 'Deleted' not 'Trash'. I guess Thunderbird renames 'Trash'. What other configs are there to try? Is there a list of config changes for 1.1.x anywhere? We were not aware of the list=no config. Thanks, Daniel

[Dovecot] problems with sieve and lda
by Harondel J. Sibble 13 Aug '08

Okay, after reading the wiki and list archives, I am confused. I am attemping to get the deliver LDA working on a centos 5.1 system # rpm -qa | grep dovecot dovecot-1.0.7-2.el5 dovecot-sieve-1.0.2-6.el5 # rpm -qa | grep postfix postfix-2.3.3-2 so that I can use Sieve for mail filtering to imap folders, I am using the mbox format Following the wiki here for system users http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix I never get any info in the logs about cmusieve, the only way I see anything show up is if I add the transport settings to postfix/master.cf or see below >From reading the list archives, as best as I can tell, the only time I need to make the changes in postfix's master.cf is if I am using a virtual environment, otherwise for local delivery, all I need is the mailbox_command setting in postfix/main.cf However with that setting, I get nothing!

[Dovecot] Dovecot,nfs or memory indexing
by Sebastian Tymków 13 Aug '08

13 Aug '08

Hi, I wonder if it's normal behaviour that indexes created in memory have long creation time. Other problem is that indexes created on nfs sometimes get crushed and I need to delete indexes in case of fetching mails ( I see mails on hd but when telnet on host and make stat I don't see any). Does version 1.1.x correct this errors ? And what is better to use : nfs or memory indexing ? Can someone point me adventages and disadventages of using both solutions? Best regards, Sebastian

[Dovecot] Quota does not apply.
by Dario Ale 13 Aug '08

13 Aug '08

Hello list: I am try to run quota plugin but only works a part. The users are virtual and his homedir and mbox are in NFS server, INDEX files are in local disk. Quota only is applied to global home, if I configure a low global quota and sent an mail to my e-mail, quota works fine, mail is temporally deferred. But, if I configure a high global quota and a small quota for INBOX, sent a mail that is more big that quota for INBOX, then quota is not applied and the mail is delivered to INBOX. IMAP log and LDA log are equals, why I only pasted IMAP log: "... dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap/lib10_quota_plugin.so dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): Module loaded: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap/lib11_imap_quota_plugin.so dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): Effective uid=1002, gid=1002, home=/vmail/telpin.com.ar/d/dario.a/ dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): Quota root: name= backend=dict args=:proxy::quotadict dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): dict quota: user=dario.a, uri=proxy::quotadict, enforcing=0 dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): Quota rule: root= mailbox=* bytes=209715200 (0%) messages=0 (0%) dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): Quota rule: root= mailbox=.mbox bytes=10485760 (0%) messages=0 (0%) dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): Quota warning: bytes=199229440 (95%) messages=0 (0%) command=/usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 95 dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): Quota warning: bytes=167772160 (80%) messages=0 (0%) command=/usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh 80 dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): mbox: data=/vmail/telpin.com.ar/d/dario.a/:INDEX=/etc/dovecot/dovecot-indexes/vmail/telpin.com.ar/d/dario.a/:INBOX=/vmail/telpin.com.ar/d/dario.a/.mbox dovecot: Aug 04 15:47:03 Info: IMAP(dario.a): fs: root=/vmail/telpin.com.ar/d/dario.a, index=/etc/dovecot/dovecot-indexes/vmail/telpin.com.ar/d/dario.a, control=, inbox=/vmail/telpin.com.ar/d/dario.a/.mbox ..."

[Dovecot] Server-side sieve for client-side copies
by Daniel L. Miller 13 Aug '08

13 Aug '08

I know I could test this - but I'd rather ask first. To my knowledge, we haven't come up with a good server-side implementation for savings copies of sent messages (by all means correct my ignorance in this regard). So the typical way is to enable it in clients like Thunderbird (this prompted a whole discussion of how to save these messages without sending them to the server multiple times). My understanding is that sending a message from a client (use Thunderbird for simplicity of this conversation) is performed via SMTP. Saving a copy into a sent folder is performed via IMAP (hence the multiple transfers to the server). Now that I've laid a background - let's make it Dovecot specific. I don't know how "behind-the-scenes" Dovecot performs the act of saving mail messages that it receives from IMAP, instead of SMTP. Specifically, if I'm using sieve filters via deliver - can I setup a filter that will place mail copies to specific recipients into specific subfolders? -- Daniel
