ssl_min_protocol
by ＠lbutlr 02 Apr '19

What are the possible settings for ssl_min_protocol? I only see it on the upgrade page where it mentions the default is TLSv1. Searching on the dovecot page gives me "Your search query "ssl_min_protocol" didn't return any results." -- Up the airy mountains, down the rushy glen...

sql table definitions
by Richard Hector 02 Apr '19

02 Apr '19

Hi all, Trivial question ... I'm using PostgreSQL for my auth db. I used the example CREATE TABLE statement in the config file, but now I find the fields are too short. I assume dovecot will be fine with 'text' type columns replacing the varchars? Or failing that, I can change the length of the varchar fields? Cheers, Richard

Issue with dovecot/director
by Nico Stöckigt 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi, are there any known issues with dovecot/director (2.2.13) when receiving e-an mail with multiple receivers? In the given scenario the e-mail contains 3 recipients and is redirected by the director to 3 different mail servers (ox/dovecot @ UCS/univention). In this process the first 2 e-mails are just fine but the third e-mail is truncated somewhere in or after the header.

mail_crypt not working on incoming messages?
by Dave 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

[Dovecot v2.2.33.2] I'm testing out mail_crypt on a fresh Dovecot install to get a feel for how it works, but I'm running into something unexpected. The mail_crypt plugin does seem to be working, but NOT on incoming email. What I mean is, if I send a test email to the server that has Dovecot installed, the message correctly arrives in the user's Maildir folder (I'm using Maildir format, not mbox), as I can see the mail message file appear. However, the message file is in plaintext and is not encrypted. But, if, using my Thunderbird email client connected to that account via IMAP, I move that message out of the inbox of that account to a folder on another account, and then move it back in to the original inbox, the file that appears in the Maildir folder structure IS encrypted. I have confirmed that mail_crypt is active in 10-mail.conf, 20-imap.conf, and 20-pop3.conf. The global public and private keys are working because (a) there are no errors and (b) it DOES encrypt -- just not on incoming email. mail_crypt_save_version is set 2, as per the docs for Dovecot 2 instruct. What am I missing? Does anyone have any thoughts as to why JUST incoming messages aren't encrypted, but that messages moved into the IMAP account DO get encrypted? Did I set up something incorrectly? I'm using sendmail as the MTA, if that matters, and messages are routed to the user's Maildir folder structure using a .procmailrc in that user's home folder. -Dave

dovecot ssl error message from my own connections
by Esteban L 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

Hello all, Just a minor thing. Not a big deal, because everything works fine, and I feel secure with my setup. But, I get this error message pretty much throughout the day/night, which appears to come from my own mail clients (desktop or mobile). I would like to resolve it, because it must me something (that is not good--that I may not understand), that may have other ramifications. So, here it is. date time myserver dovecot: imap-login: Debug: SSL error: SSL_read() syscall failed: Connection reset by peer Anyone have a suggestion of what this might hint to, other than obvious SSL. I tried parsing through various logs, but the most I find is just this single line. I can produce it, whenever I close my email client. Thanks in advance.

Possible bug with last_login plugin and PostgreSQL
by Zhang Huangbin 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

Dear all, I'm trying to get last_login plugin working with PostgreSQL, but seems Dovecot doesn't handle duplicate key while updating last login time (note: same setting works fine with MariaDB). I wonder whether it's a bug of Dovecot or i should handle this with PostgreSQL trigger.

Why is 'sent' folder missing in my MUA(email client)
by luckydog xf 31 Mar '19

hello, I'm successfully send and receive emails by postfix and dovecot, but folder name 'Sent' is gone, all sent emails are located in Drafts folder. Anything wrong? Guess it has something to do with mailbox and location. Here is `doveconf -n` ------------------ auth_cache_size = 1 M auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_mechanisms = plain login auth_ssl_username_from_cert = yes auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = yes import_environment = TZ login_trusted_networks = 172.16.0.0/12 mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/%n/Maildir mail_privileged_group = mail namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext driver = sql } protocols = imap lmtp service auth-worker { user = $default_internal_user } service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0666 } } service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 0 } inet_listener imaps { port = 993 ssl = yes } } service lmtp { unix_listener lmtp { mode = 0666 } } service pop3-login { inet_listener pop3 { port = 110 } } ssl = required ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_dh = # hidden, use -P to show it ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it userdb { driver = prefetch } userdb { args = uid=mail gid=mail home=/var/mail/%u driver = static } verbose_proctitle = yes ----- I also checked mail dir, it has /var/mail/XXX/Maildir/.send/ So anything wrong?

Attachment indicator

Hi, if i use 'doveadm rebuild attachments' command with maildir mailboxes, will anything happen to files with emails? For example, will file name change? Or better, will anything, which could trigger data backup, happen to files containing emails? Thanks. azur
