I basically followed https://www.c0ffee.net/blog/mail-server-guide/ And dovecot with solr is running fine on freebsd for me.

corrupt mdbox index / zero mails showing in imap
by Mike 27 Jul '19

27 Jul '19

Hi, I have recently migrated (under emergency conditions) a dovecot imap/pop based server to a new instance. The mailboxes used mdbox format and due to various screwups I had corrupt indexes. I thought I'd cleaned this up but then I found that this new instance hadn't been set up correctly for nfs. Long story short, I still get users with new cases of corrupt indexes. The symptom is imap either showing NO mail in their inbox, or, not showing any recently delivered mail in the box, until I rm -f dovecot.map.index / doveadm force-resync -u user. It would be a huge help if there could be some method to detect if this is the case for any given user and to proactively do the force-resync process for them instead of waiting for that support call (or service cancellation...). I have looked around and have not found any tool capable of 'linting' an mdbox format inbox, and it seems like something like this should have been or would be an extremely useful debugging tool both during development as well as to troubleshoot stuff in the field. I would love to know if anyone either has such a tool, or any general suggestion how I could go about finding these cases and addressing them. I believe I have the nfs issue resolved and will not be creating new cases, so I just want to fix the ~3000 boxes I have now and move forward. Thank you. Mike-

dsync crash
by tono 25 Jul '19

25 Jul '19

Hello, I am getting a persistent seg fault while trying to sync our server to a new location. We are on 2.2.33.2, due for an upgrade but we have used dsync successfully in the past. In fact, we used it to populate this same instance. So I hope this is just a configuration issue. My logs are being filled with these errors:: 2019-07-10T08:29:53-04:00 localhost dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.crit] doveadm: Fatal: master: service(doveadm): child 44707 killed with signal 11 (core dumped) On the remote we see: 2019-07-10T10:17:24-04:00 localhost dovecot: [ID 583609 mail.error] doveadm: Error: read(111.111.111.111) failed: EOF (version not received) I tried doing sync manually: truss -rall -wall -f doveadm sync -u tpyro(a)metro-email.com tcp:123.123.123.123 55440: V E R S I O N\t d o v e a d m - s e r v e r\t 1\t 1\n 55440: pollsys(0x0816EB88, 1, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) = 1 55440: read(10, " -\n", 8192) = 2 55440: write(10, 0x08126598, 31) = 31 55440: P L A I N\t P A S s w o R d R E D A C t E D x W o e N X H h\n 55440: read(10, 0x0814980A, 8190) Err#11 EAGAIN 55440: pollsys(0x0816EB88, 1, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) = 1 55440: read(10, 0x0814980A, 8190) = 27 55440: V E R S I O N\t d o v e a d m - c l i e n t\t 1\t 1\n 55440: read(10, 0x08149825, 8163) Err#11 EAGAIN 55440: pollsys(0x0816EB88, 1, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) = 1 55440: read(10, " +\n", 8163) = 2 55440: write(10, 0x081738D0, 60) = 60 55440: \t u s e r 1 @ d o m a i n - n a m e . c o m\t d s y n c - s e r 55440: v e r\t - u u s e r 1 @ d o m a i n - n a m e . c o m\n 55440: pollsys(0x0816EB88, 1, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) = 1 55440: Incurred fault #6, FLTBOUNDS %pc = 0xFEC84490 55440: siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0xD89CDB4E 55440: Received signal #11, SIGSEGV [default] 55440: siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0xD89CDB4E I saw the note in the wiki about "dovecot --hostdomain" so I made sure they do not match.

lmtp with non ASCII Parameters changed in dovecot 2.3
by Matthias Lay 25 Jul '19

25 Jul '19

Hi, I updated from 2.2 to 2.3 and noticed lmtp rejects parameters containing non ASCII now. this worked with dovecot-2.2 lmtp. the string is already denied after reading in "smtp_command_parse_parameters()" mail from:<bluö> 500 5.5.2 Invalid command syntax is there a plan to change this behaviour, or to implement the SMTPUTF8 extension in lib-smtp? I guess thie would fix Michals "Dovecot LMTP rejecting mail from address with apostrophe" Problem too. Greetz Matze

Fwd: Character not allowed in mailbox name
by Lothar Schilling 23 Jul '19

23 Jul '19

Hi Arnold, thanks for your assistance. I solved the issue right now by changing prefix = Shared/%%u/ to prefix = Shared/%%n/ This omits the @mydomain.de part which holds the dot causing the trouble. Why this became a problem due to the update I wouldn't know.
