backup mails from alternate storage
by Lars Täuber 04 May '15

04 May '15

Hi there! It seems that # doveadm backup -v backup -fu $MUSER mdbox:"$BKPDIR/$MUSER/mdbox" doesn't backup all messages stored in alternate storage. mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox:ALT=/srv/mail/slow/vmail/%n/mdbox I don't know how to debug this. The sizes of the mailboxes in the filesystems of user C are strange: ~/mdbox: # du -sm 2169 ALT: # du -sm 25252 backup: # du -sm 2658 This is with dovecot 2.2.9 on Ubuntu x86_64 14.04.2 LTS. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? How can I test if messages stored in the alternate storage are successfully backed up? Thanks Lars

Fatal: Unknown scheme: SHA512-CRYPT. On a Mac-mini
by Robert Chalmers 01 May '15

01 May '15

Running postfix+dovecot+mysql on a mac-mini, and trying to solve this puzzle. Is this a Mac issue?, a MySQL issue? or something I haven't configured in? You can see from the output of the samples shows in the first case, that SHA512-CRYPT seems to be Unknown. The code I used is from a Linux based tutorial on setting up Postfix+Dovecot+MySQL on a site. Everything is generally going ok, apart from this bit. There are some others unknown as well. The codes used to create my database of passwords follows these output examples. MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA512-CRYPT -p 123456 Fatal: Unknown scheme: SHA512-CRYPT MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA512 -p 123456 {SHA512}ujJTh2rta8ItSm/1PYQGxq2GQZXtFEq1yHYhtsIztUi66uaVbfNG7IwX9eoQ817jy8UUeX7X3dMUVGTioLq0Ew== MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA256 -p 123456 {SHA256}jZae727K08KaOmKSgOaGzww/XVqGr/PKEgIMkjrcbJI= MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s MD5 -p 123456 {MD5}$1$.mAQzPhO$6v/WxTUt.Y1lhopkMarEb0 MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s MD5-CRYPT -p 123456 {MD5-CRYPT}$1$gNkYwx/o$3nQLmUIPOBmZdR/e/EXFV1 MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s BLF-CRYPT -p 123456 Fatal: Unknown scheme: BLF-CRYPT MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA512 -p 1pass66U! {SHA512}EuuO6BAt+bgzXIOw7XIdiVBFwdEZ2tGqHOJ/DSTSkD+ikw7GQQo+KtHSta7p3KNv2AEVKtfOuyl5UeCEqnKogg== MacMini:~ robert$ sudo doveadm pw -s SHA256-CRYPT -p 1pass66U!

Which seems to work fine, and creates the table as it should - even though the resulting password doesn't appear to be quite right for SHA512-CRYPT INSERT INTO `mailserver`.`virtual_users` (`id`, `domain_id`, `password` , `email`) VALUES ('1', '1', ENCRYPT('firstpassword', CONCAT('$6$', SUBSTRING(SHA(RAND()), -16))), 'email1(a)example.com'), ('2', '1', ENCRYPT('secondpassword', CONCAT('$6$', SUBSTRING(SHA(RAND()), -16))), 'email2(a)example.com'); What it actually creates is this: This is not a SHA512-CRYPT password?? mysql> SELECT * FROM mailserver.virtual_users; 3 | 1 | $6jxK9DWPBrAc | robert(a)zeus.example.com Just to be clear,. this is the section of the Dovecot configs that deals with handling this. BUT.. On the MAC-Mini, SHA512-CrYPT is unknown. # List of supported schemes is in # http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/PasswordSchemes # default_pass_scheme = SHA512-CRYPT So the question is, what Encryption should I be using, and is this an Apple thing, or a MySQL thing?

Postpone email delivery with LMTP and Postfix
by Miloslav Hůla 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

Hi, is there any way, based on userdb/passwdb attribute, how to postpone an email delivery? The purpose is, I need to freeze an account (Maildir++) for a few minutes and new email must not be delivered. But emails must be delivered when account is unfrozen. I found few things about Postfix filters, but I'm not sure it's a good way. Thank you, Milo

Sieve Rule: What am I missing here?

A question about Configure time options, and base directories and Defaults?
by Robert Chalmers 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

I originally downloaded the sources a few weeks ago, dovecot-2.2.16, and simply did a ./configure make make install I'm running OSX 10.10.3 on a mac-mini. Not being too sure that I was going to go ahead with this whole idea... in any event, I did. BUT... most documentation I come across as I search for answers refers to the base directories being below /etc - as in postfix actually. ie; /etc/dovecot /etc/postfix Which seems logical to me - and appears to be a "default" or standard, at least in most documentation. However, my cavaliere installation put everything below /usr/local, as in /usr/local/etc/dovecot Which has caused me no end of fiddling as I try and remember where things are when I'm working on config files. There even appears to be a /private/etc/dovecot folder, which I seem to have somehow created about a month ago??? but is empty anyway. So, on my Mac I now have these folders/directories. These may have been created by a previous attempt, or by an installation to CutedgeSystems Mailserve. Now redundant. /private/etc/dovecot <---- empty /private/etc/pam.d/dovecot <--- contains login, pop3, ssh etc etc /private/var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot <-- this is a link to the one just above ??? or the other one is a link to this? /usr/libexec/dovecot <-- this contains a link to dovecot-lda [dovecot-lda -> /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda] that I put in myself because that's where dovecot was looking for it. ========= everything below this line is as a result of the installation from source /usr/local/cutedge/dovecot /usr/local/etc/dovecot /usr/local/include/dovecot /usr/local/lib/dovecot /usr/local/libexec/dovecot /usr/local/sbin/dovecot /usr/local/share/doc/dovecot /usr/local/var/lib/dovecot /usr/local/var/run/dovecot I see from this list in someone else's post, that it's obviously possible - and I should have remembered - to put the files where ever I want them. i.e. /etc/dovecot If I read this list right, it will put the installation into /etc/dovecot - with some in other, appropriate directories. NOT all below /user/local as I have done. --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --libexecdir=\${prefix}/lib \ --localstatedir=/var \ --mandir=\${prefix}/share/man \ --infodir=\${prefix}/share/info \ --with-moduledir=\${prefix}/lib/dovecot/modules \ --disable-rpath \ --disable-static Now for the burning question. Is it possible now to re-configure, then reinstall into the more appropriate directories, then copy the configuration files over. Make the appropriate weeks, and remove the original /usr/local/xxxx installation? Or is that just a step too far for the sake of what is essentially window dressing. The system I might add appears to be working as is? Thanks for any advice from the experts. (Sorry if the formatting in this post gets screwed up. It;s gmail;s web interface) Robert

doveadm -D and -v options
by Reuben Farrelly 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

According to doveadm-dsync man page the above two options are valid, but they are rejected when used: tornado # doveadm backup -v -u testuser remote:pi.me.name:4814 backup: invalid option -- 'v' doveadm backup [-u <user>|-A] [-S <socket_path>] [-fPRU] [-l <secs>] [-r <rawlog path>] [-m <mailbox>] [-g <mailbox_guid>] [-n <namespace> | -N] [-x <exclude>] [-s <state>] -d|<dest> tornado # tornado # doveadm backup -D -u testuser remote:pi.me.name:4814 backup: invalid option -- 'D' doveadm backup [-u <user>|-A] [-S <socket_path>] [-fPRU] [-l <secs>] [-r <rawlog path>] [-m <mailbox>] [-g <mailbox_guid>] [-n <namespace> | -N] [-x <exclude>] [-s <state>] -d|<dest> tornado # This is with 2.2.16 (latest -hg). Looks to me like either a bug, or the documentation (man doveadm-sync) is incorrect...? Reuben

quota_over_flag examples?
by E.B. 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

I can't find any posts on this list for peoples using quota_over_flag http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Configuration#Overquota-flag_.28v2.2.16.2B-.… If my userdb is sql what would be best script to use in terms of performance? (I mean if over-quota-flag triggers script every time it changes and the script calls CLI mysql client isn't all this so expensive to spawn a new shell session which spawns a mysql client?) Anyone knows how to use this flag with postfix *making postfix send special reject* "user over quota" note instead of plain SMTP reject?? Is an additional database lookup (restriction class?) unavoidable? :( TIA1 PS Looks like it is tricky almost impossible to make postfix do rejects based on this flag for aliases. (Special query would be a little messy for our schema but i dunno at what point postfix resolves aliases?)
