[Dovecot] Configuration file changes
by Timo Sirainen 02 Jul '03

02 Jul '03

I was going to add support for "configuration groups", but got a bit stuck at how the logic is supposed to work. I think there could be different settings based on IP/port it's listening in, or based on given username. I can't really describe how it would work, and I'm not entirely sure myself either :) Does this make sense: # (default settings here) # if auth groups are defined here, they are included in all groups below group 1.server.org { protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s ssl_cert_file = /etc/ssl/certs/server1.pem login_dir = /var/run/dovecot/login/server1 login { # common for imap/pop3 listen = 1.server.org } auth server1 { mechanisms = plain userdb = ldap /etc/ldap-server1.conf passdb = ldap /etc/ldap-server1.conf } group admins { mail_full_filesystem_access = yes auth admins { mechanisms = plain userdb = passwd-file /etc/admins.passwd passdb = passwd-file /etc/admins.passwd } } } # (any setting changes here would affect only new groups below, otherwise # the config file parsing would get difficult..) group anonymous { protocols = imap ssl_disable = yes login_dir = /var/run/dovecot/login/anonymous login { listen = anonymous.server.org process_per_connection = no processes_count = 1 } auth anonymous { mechanisms = plain anonymous userdb = passwd-file /etc/anon.passwd passdb = passwd-file /etc/anon.passwd } }

[Dovecot] Dovecot first impressions
by Matthias Andree 30 Jun '03

30 Jun '03

Hi, I have only recently become aware of Dovecot and gave it a try. The previous 0.99.9.1 version didn't work well for me (OpenSSL), I dropped it, but 0.99.10 has come just in time (saw it on freshmeat) and I thought I'd give it another try if it promised SSL fixes, and it's sorta working for me (i. e. it works with mutt, Mozilla, sylpheed, but not cone -- but cone is beta and has SSL issues with certificate verification, I seem to have hosed the setup). Anyways, I was delighted to see how quick it is to install an IMAP/POP3 server -- but being a Courier-IMAP user, I have some compatibility concerns, but these appear to be minor, and the daemontools <URL:http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html> friendliness (dovecot -F) is very much to my taste as well. One deals with NAMESPACE -- it takes manual intervention in order to convince Mozilla of the new namespace and stuff. Courier-IMAP used to provide a NAMESPACE, but Mozilla leaves it unchanged if I point it to Dovecot. The other is the naming itself, easily visible from the LIST replies below: Courier prefixes everything with "INBOX" (which I believe is reflected in the NAMESPACE, but it appears as though most clients were only tested against UWIMAP). Apparently, mail user clients (particularly the Mozilla derivatives) do a better job of presenting Dovecot's layout, so this one has my preference, although it differs from Courier's and Cyrus 2.1's. Timo, could you add the NAMESPACE extension to Dovecot? That would be a great migration aid for people switching over from Courier-IMAP. Other than that, my first impression is a very good one. One question (I may have missed it in the docs): how do I properly create folders with national characters (umlauts) in their names? Apparently, Courier-IMAP and Dovecot just forward the file name verbatim when I type maildirmake -f t=E4=DFt Maildir, which doesn't look right. OTOH, I am well aware that the IMAP servers can't possible guess the character set, so it must be my "maildirmake" that is flawed rather than the server. This is Courier-IMAP: . namespace * NAMESPACE (("INBOX." ".")) NIL (("shared." ".")) . OK NAMESPACE completed. . list "" * * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.INBOX.Trash" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.dovecot" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.qmail" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.cone" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "." "INBOX.vulnwatch" * LIST (\HasNoChildren) "."

[Dovecot] Message display corrupted or missing in Netscape 7.0 and Mozilla 1.3
by Steven Enderle 28 Jun '03

28 Jun '03

Hi, a few days ago, we switched our site from pop3 to imap. We are running about 20 users with Netscape 7.0 on a FreeBSD-4.8 Server . I installed dovecot 0.9.99.1 via the freebsd-ports collection, which was as easy as make install and start dovecot. Our users mailboxes are still standart mbox format in /var/mail/(user), as it is default in Freebsd. Now we suffer from a realy ugly problem, which was arising after the switch from pop3. When Netscape is newly started, it works fine as expected until Netscape displays messages corrupted or stops displaying them completly. I also cannot forward them in that state or open or delete them in any other way. The only way to get it working again is to quit Netscape, exit quickstart and restart Netscape again. It just hangs on a bunch of messages or all of them. The user notices it like this: There are three windows displayed in netscape mail: 1. imap folder view 2. message list of the current folder and 3. the currently displayed message. The Folder view and Message List in Netscape is always fine, so the Subject and sender, time, etc is always displayed in the List. The problem occurs then on some messages when i select them for reading. The Message Display below the message list just stays empty (also opening the message in a new window doesn't help) or the "title bar in the Message Display" stays empty (no subject, sender, time etc) and the raw email starting with header, raw html email and encoded attachment is shown below, each line followed by another blank line, like this: == start corrupted email X-UIDL: 8793f170f0430909 Return-Path: <frank.xx(a)xx.de> Delivered-To: xx(a)mdn.de Received: from mailrelay1.xx.de (mailrelay.xx.de [212.114.153.xx]) by xx.de (Postfix) with ESMTP id D31B7A88F for <xx(a)mdn.de>; Wed, 18 Jun 2003 08:55:07 +0200 (CEST) Received: from ntmail1.xx.de (ntmail1.xx.de [212.114.155.xx]) html and stuff following... == end corrupted email One could read it, but its realy ugly. It seems, that if i delete a lot of messages in sequence (the morning spam), i can force to happen that problem earlier. It always hangs while deleting my spam. I like dovecot a lot, it was easy to install etc and works pretty fine except that it still seems to be in beta-stage. Now i would switch to courier/uw-imap until dovecot is ready, but the mbox format dovecot is using seems to be pretty uniq? I think, the users could keep their /var/mail/Username-INBOX, but wouldn't they loose their email folders? Is there any way to switch the software in a easy way? Or will there be a near future release which will fix that? What about the cvs version? Thanks for you help!

[Dovecot] 0.99.10 released
by Timo Sirainen 27 Jun '03

27 Jun '03

No bug reports since rc4, so here it is. v0.99.10 2003-06-26 Timo Sirainen <tss(a)iki.fi> * Default PAM service name changed to "dovecot". This means that if you're using PAM, you most likely have to do mv /etc/pam.d/imap /etc/pam.d/dovecot If you wish to keep using imap, see doc/auth.txt. * ~/rawlog directory changed to ~/dovecot.rawlog + Faster and better maildir synchronization. We support read-only maildirs and out-of-quota conditions are handled a lot better. dovecot-uidlist file still isn't out-of-quota-safe though, but you can keep it in another location where quota isn't checked. For example: default_mail_env = Maildir:~/Maildir: INDEX=/noquota/%u:CONTROL=/noquota/%u + Read-only mboxes are supported now. + Only NOOP and CHECK now always do a mailbox sync checking. Other commands sync max. once in 5 seconds, plus always from indexes. This should reduce I/O a bit. + All NUL characters are translated to ascii #128 before sending to client. RFC prohibits sending NULs and this is how UW-IMAP handles it as well. + Make ENVELOPE, BODY and BODYSTRUCTURE replies more compact by removing multiple LWSPs and translating TABs to spaces. RFC doesn't specifically require this, but this seems to be the wanted behaviour.. + Added ANONYMOUS SASL mechanism. + More flexible user chrooting configuration in home directories: "<chroot>/./<homedir>" + Added support for dynamically loadable IMAP/POP3 modules. See INSTALL file for more information. - Partial fetches were broken if mails had CR+LF linefeeds - SEARCH DELETED didn't return anything if all messages were deleted - OpenSSL support was broken in many installations because we were chrooted and it couldn't open /dev/urandom. - PAM: Giving wrong password blocked the whole process for two seconds. Now we create a new process for each check. - Lots of other smaller bugfixes and better error handling

[Dovecot] Dovecot and file permissions
by Spectron International, Inc. 26 Jun '03

26 Jun '03

I have some questions about some parameters in dovecot.conf, I have them configured as this: # User to use for the login process. The user must belong to a group where # only it has access, it's used to control access for authentication process # named sockets login_user=postfix # User to use for the process. Only shadow and pam authentication requires # roots, so use something else if possible auth_user=postfix It seems to me that all files created and used by Dovecot as long as they were created by the postfix user, they would be accesible. Right? My maildir shows as this: drw------- 6 postfix postdrop 65 Jun 26 09:40 Maildir so I guess postfix has full access to the maildir. Wouldn't setting login_user and auth_user to postfix let Dovecot access the Maildir? In the logs I get permission errors, if I chmod to 777 it works ok. This is what I get in the logs: Jun 26 09:24:23 backup imap(f_rojas): opendir(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir) failed: Permission denied Jun 26 09:24:31 backup imap(f_rojas): stat(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir/.Drafts) failed: Permission denied Jun 26 09:24:31 backup imap(f_rojas): lstat(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir/cur) failed: Permission denied Jun 26 09:24:31 backup imap(f_rojas): stat(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir/.Sent Items) failed: Permission denied Jun 26 09:24:31 backup imap(f_rojas): lstat(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir/cur) failed: Permission denied Jun 26 09:26:52 backup imap(f_rojas): lstat(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir/cur) failed: Permission denied Jun 26 10:06:09 backup imap(f_rojas): lstat(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir/cur) failed: Permission denied Jun 26 10:06:15 backup imap(f_rojas): opendir(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir) failed: Permission denied Jun 26 10:08:38 backup imap(f_rojas): opendir(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir) failed: Permission denied Jun 26 10:13:03 backup imap(f_rojas): stat(/opt/mail/f_rojas/Maildir/.Sent Items) failed: Permission denied Faw

[Dovecot] mutt and dovecot
by Charlie Allom 26 Jun '03

26 Jun '03

Hi, I setup squirrelmail with dovecot and everything worked. I moved users Maildir directores to ~/Maildir/INBOX.directory/ and updated the .subscriptions file to something like ^INBOX.directory squirrelmail picks this up, but I can't seem to get mutt to read this style. In fact I would have assumed that dovecot would read ~/Maildir/ as INBOX and everything under it as it stands, without having to shuffle things about. Does anyone use mutt and have any words fo advice? I am not sure that courier-imapd does this sort of munging?
