BUG in rc7 (and probably from much earlier). The LDA 'deliver' fails to honour any uid (%i) setting in dovecot.conf. So delivery and reading happen in different places if 'default_mail_env' uses a '%i' variant. Clearly incorrect behaviour. Attached is a draft of a patch which fixes the problem. Please could the patch be reviewed and, in some form, applied? Thanks. -- : David Lee I.T.

[Dovecot] PAM authentication problem: MD5 vs crypt
by bhayden＠umn.edu 23 Sep '06

23 Sep '06

Here's a strange one. I have Dovecot set up on Solaris 9. The auth portion of the config is straight out of the box. Using PAM. We have most users in a dbm file which is just a series of key/value pairs: key is a username, and value is a string equivalent to a shadow entry. nsswitch.conf entry: passwd files dbm. For historical reasons, some users have a classic 13-character Unix crypt password hash, while others have a 34-character MD5 hash. Here's the situation: User location pw Hash Auth succeeds/fails ---------------------------------------------- files crypt succeeds dbm crypt succeeds files MD5 succeeds dbm MD5 FAILS After two days of research, trussing, and etc, I am stumped. Does anyone have a thought? -Brian

[Dovecot] Missing Mailbox
by Nick 23 Sep '06

23 Sep '06

Hi List, I'm setting up a new Dovecot server and am having some issues getting Dovecot to see the mailbox correctly. I already have several mailboxes (From another Dovecot server) but my new install does not see them. I'm running Ubuntu 6.06 w/ Dovecot 1.0.beta3. When I try to login, I get the following in the log. Sep 23 15:11:55 nibiru dovecot: auth(default): client out: CONT^I1^I Sep 23 15:11:55 nibiru dovecot: auth-worker(default): sql(nick(a)mogmail.net, 192.168.0.129): query: SELECT password FROM users WHERE email = ' nick(a)mogmail.net' Sep 23 15:11:55 nibiru dovecot: auth(default): client in: CONT<hidden> Sep 23 15:11:55 nibiru dovecot: auth(default): client out: OK^I1^Iuser= nick(a)mogmail.net Sep 23 15:11:55 nibiru dovecot: auth-worker(default): sql(nick(a)mogmail.net, 192.168.0.129): SELECT CONCAT('/srv/mail/','mogmail.net','/nick') AS home, '5000' AS uid, '5000' AS gid FROM users u, domains d WHERE u.email='nick(a)mogmail.net' AND d.domain='mogmail.net' Sep 23 15:11:55 nibiru dovecot: auth(default): master in: REQUEST^I2^I7117^I1 Sep 23 15:11:55 nibiru dovecot: auth(default): master out: USER^I2^Inick(a)mogmail.net ^Ihome=/srv/mail/mogmail.net/nick^Iuid=5000^Igid=5000 Sep 23 15:11:55 nibiru dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<nick(a)mogmail.net>, method=plain, rip=192.168.0.129, lip=192.168.0.2 I'm concerned about the "^I" appearing all over the place. My config is below. Does anyone know what's happening?
