Converting dot-namespaced Maildir to /-namespaced
by Guido Goluke, MajorLabel 24 Jun '20

24 Jun '20

I have a couple of domains on my server, all of them namespaced with a dot. It's 10-15 mailboxes at the most. Is there good way to convert them to / (slash) namespaced folders? Maybe some bash script lying around somewhere?

dovecot fts configuration without solr
by Danilo Tomasoni 24 Jun '20

24 Jun '20

Hello All, I always used dovecot and I'm pretty happy with it, but recently I changed OS (to ubuntu 18) and to get dovecot LTS with lucene (the default I was using on my previous arch installation) I needed to build from source the version 2.3.10 (the one that came with the repos was older and clucene was not actually supported) The problem is that the Clucene is not behaving well, It indexes only some mails but definitely not all according to my tests (there are also strange assertion errors in the logs) I also tried xapian fts index but is very slow indexing and definitely doesn't seem to work. The problem with solr fts is that solr doesn't even start on my tiny system (odroid C2 with 2GB RAM) and anyway I don't want to bloat all the system for the indexing if possible.. Anyone can suggest me a proper minimal and working configuration? Thank you Danilo

from field encoding
by Jan Jurko 23 Jun '20

23 Jun '20

Good day. I have a dovecot 2.3.4.1 on debian 10 as an imap server. I found there are emails where the header field From has no encoding even if there is a name with special characters like Žlutý Kůň. The header looks like: From: "Žlutý Kůň" <zluty.kun(a)domain.tld> In this case the email client - roundcube, outlook etc. will show the From with wrong characters. This behaviour is typical only for dovecot, not for courier-imap - it was installed before dovecot with no problems. If there is corretly encoded From filed, the client shows the From correctly. Is there a way to set up the dovecot to show the field correctly even without encoding stuff? Some default/fallback settings? Thank you very much for your help Jan Jurko

Greetings, I'd like to contribute to the Dovecot wiki in regards to clients that lack the ability to support SNI. However the captcha doesn't make sense, I get a question "What do you do to prevent spam?". This is a loaded question which I'm uncertain what the answer should be. Thanks.

Bug[?]report: duplicate response
by Johannes Schilling 21 Jun '20

hi, i'm not sure if i've discovered a bug or if i'm not following the IMAP specs correctly. observations: { echo -en "a1 login foo bar\r\na2 notify set (subscribed (FlagChange SubscriptionChange MessageNew MessageExpunge))\r\n"; cat - } | openssl s_client -connect [my_dovecot_server]:993 produces the following output (aside from the openssl s_client cert-inspection stuff): 2020-06-21 12:26:02 * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE LITERAL+ AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Dovecot (Debian) ready. 2020-06-21 12:26:02 a1 OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE SORT SORT=DISPLAY THREAD=REFERENCES THREAD=REFS THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT MULTIAPPEND URL-PARTIAL CATENATE UNSELECT CHILDREN NAMESPACE UIDPLUS LIST-EXTENDED I18NLEVEL=1 CONDSTORE QRESYNC ESEARCH ESORT SEARCHRES WITHIN CONTEXT=SEARCH LIST-STATUS BINARY MOVE SNIPPET=FUZZY LITERAL+ NOTIFY SPECIAL-USE] Logged in 2020-06-21 12:26:02 a2 OK NOTIFY completed (0.005 + 0.000 + 0.004 secs). 2020-06-21 12:26:02 a2 OK NOTIFY completed (0.002 + 0.000 + 0.001 secs). the first line is the pre-login welcome prompt, the second one the result of the "a1 login .." command and the third and fourth seem to be the answer to the "a2 notify set .." command, twice. from the different timings given, it seems the a2 command is actually executed twice. is this a case of "you're not allowed to pipeline commands like this" or a bug in dovecot (or both)? i attached the output of `dovecot -n`. best, dario
