[Dovecot] cmusieve bug: vaction + redirect
by Dominique Feyer 06 Jul '06

06 Jul '06

I found a bug in cmusieve plugin. I can do redirect: --- redirect "booking(a)jamesdo.com"; redirect "chabanel(a)net4all.ch"; keep; --- And vacation: --- require "vacation"; vacation :days 5 :addresses "info(a)lda.net4all.ch" :subject "Out of Office Reply" "Thanks for your email. I'm away from my desk, so I won't be able to reply until Thursday 15th April at the earliest. Thanks."; --- If I try to do vacation and redirect in the same script: --- require "vacation"; redirect "booking(a)jamesdo.com"; redirect "chabanel(a)net4all.ch"; keep; vacation :days 5 :addresses "info(a)lda.net4all.ch" :subject "Out of Office Reply" "Thanks for your email. I'm away from my desk, so I won't be able to reply until Thursday 15th April at the earliest. Thanks."; --- The vacation is OK, but the redirect as no subject in the header and the to: header is "undisclosed-recipients : ;". The content of the message is ok. Thanks; -- Dominique Feyer Administrateur Système Ch. de la Colline 5bis CH-1007 Lausanne dfeyer(a)net4all.ch

[Dovecot] Dovecot 1.0 RC1 + Plugin cmusieve "Sendmail qui with signal 11"
by Dominique Feyer 06 Jul '06

06 Jul '06

I just install RC1 + Plugin cmusieve (cvs), the sieve script is compiled and the sive lib seems OK. But in my log I have sendmail qui with signal 11 when I try to send a mail with "redirect" or "vacation" ? Any possibilitie to use a external SMTP server ? Signal 11 with sendmail is often a memory problem, but the server is in production since more than one month without any problem to sendmail. I dont use sendmail, but postifix so /usr/lib/sendmail is the compatibility command. Thanks -- Dominique Feyer Administrateur Système Ch. de la Colline 5bis CH-1007 Lausanne dfeyer(a)net4all.ch

[Dovecot] Procmail patch for dovecot delivery
by Gerhard Wiesinger 06 Jul '06

06 Jul '06

Hello! As discussed in the previous thread about "Dovecot deliver logging problem and procmail" I have made a small patch for procmail to deliver through dovecot's deliver program (or any other delivery program). So Procmail does not write the mailboxes directly any more. So delivery is done through pipes and an external program which can deliver the files. Since dovecot's deliver program can not handle absolute pathes, theses files are handled directly by procmail. See the configuration options below for details. Also INBOX handling needs special handling because this is handled through the /var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME folder which dovecot deliver can not handle. So this is mapped (when configured) to the INBOX folder. For debugging purposes you can add the VERBOSE=on variable. A sample configuration for dovecot usage with documentation is discussed below. Some other delivery agents (e.g. cyrus) might need other options. Keep in mind that the environment expansions with $ in the DELIVER_PROGRAM must be escaped with a backslash. BOXNAME and RECIPIENT are 2 new variables which can be used. Status of the patch is that it "works for me". There is no other guarantee ... So I hope you like the patch. Maybe someone can make a short review of the code changes. Feel free for any feedback.

[Dovecot] FW: Postfix Dovecot MySQL user/pass authentication:: Password Mismatch
by Brad Staszcuk 06 Jul '06

06 Jul '06

Having some difficulty with this one: I have Postfix setup, with a web interface for postfixadmin. Both Dovecot and Postfix are setup to use the same MySQL database to authenticate users. Only SSL connections are allowed, so I use PLAIN/cleartext as my password type. Setting up users works correctly from Postfixadmin, and Dovecot recognizes the users and their respective directories, however, when I try to connect from an email client (Outlook in this case) I get the following errors in my log after enabling verbose debugging and auth logging: dovecot: Jul 05 17:00:00 Info: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=POP3 secured lip=192.168.0.10 .... dovecot: Jul 05 17:00:00 Info: auth-worker(default) sql(admin(a)domain.com,192.168.0.15): query: .... dovecot: Jul 05 17:00:00 Info: auth-worker(default) sql(admin(a)domain.com,192.168.0.15): Password mismatch dovecot: Jul 05 17:00:00 Info: auth-worker(default) sql(admin(a)domain.com,192.168.0.15): PLAIN-MD5 (testingpassword) != 'testingpassword' dovecot: Jul 05 17:00:00 Info: auth(default): client out: FAIL 1 user=admin(a)domain.com dovecot: Jul 05 17:00:00 Info: pop3-login: Disconnected: user=<admin(a)domain.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=192.168. .... Any suggestions? It seems like the passwords match, as it prints them both and they are the same, but for some reason it is failing when comparing them... I'm at a loss, and I can't seem to find anyone else who has had quite this issue. CentOS 4.3 if that helps, newest builds of dovecot and postfix downloaded and compiled today, both correctly with mysql and sasl support. I appreciate any input.. - Brad

[Dovecot] Postfix/Dovecot/SaSL/MySQL Problem
by James Bowling 05 Jul '06

05 Jul '06

I have a current working installation of Postfix, Dovecot and MySQL. I want to utilize the Dovecot implementation of SaSL for SMTP-AUTH. Here is the issue I am running into when making the appropriate changes to my configs, when starting Dovecot with the addition of the socket listen configuration in dovecot.conf, I see this error in the logs: Jul 5 00:02:11 localhost dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.beta9 starting up Jul 5 00:02:12 localhost dovecot: child 25908 (auth) returned error 89 Jul 5 00:02:12 localhost dovecot: child 25910 (auth) returned error 89 Jul 5 00:02:12 localhost dovecot: child 25911 (auth) returned error 89 Jul 5 00:02:12 localhost dovecot: child 25912 (auth) returned error 89 Jul 5 00:02:12 localhost dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting down Jul 5 00:02:12 localhost dovecot: auth(default): Socket already exists: /var/spool/postfix/private/auth Not quite sure why this is happening...I searched on google for this and found nothing. If anyone could please shed some light on this for me then please do as it would be appreciated. And for good measure: Postfix v2.3-RC5 Dovecot 1.0b9 Regards, James Bowling <james(a)jamesbowling.com>

Hi all, i got a problem with the umask parameter. I set it to umask=0007 because i need to access mail with another process with different uid, but dovecot seems to ignore the directive for files. I'm using the last 1.0_rc2 release and i'm storing mail in maildir format. Ex: root@linux ~ # ls -al /var/domains/matteo/.maildir/.INBOX.test/ total 21K drwxrwx--- 5 maildir maildir 232 Jul 5 11:21 . drwx------ 23 maildir maildir 928 Jul 5 11:21 .. drwxrwx--- 2 maildir maildir 48 Jul 5 11:21 cur -rw------- 1 maildir maildir 144 Jul 5 11:21 dovecot.index -rw------- 1 maildir maildir 11K Jul 5 11:21 dovecot.index.cache -rw------- 1 maildir maildir 104 Jul 5 11:21 dovecot.index.log drwxrwx--- 2 maildir maildir 48 Jul 5 11:21 new drwxrwx--- 2 maildir maildir 48 Jul 5 11:21 tmp for directories umask work! but for mail file...
