[pigeonhole] disregards --with-ldap=no during compilation
by Michael Grimm 28 Jul '14

28 Jul '14

Hi -- I can't get current dovecot and pigeonhole compiled; compilation stops with: | sieve-ldap-db.h:19:10: fatal error: 'ldap.h' file not found Ok, because my dovecot isn't compiled with ldap (--without-ldap), I tried to apply "--with-ldap=no" with configure as advertised in the INSTALL file of pigeonhole, but without success: [...] | ./sieve-ldap-db.h:19:10: fatal error: 'ldap.h' file not found | #include <ldap.h> | ^ | 1 error generated. | gmake[5]: *** [sieve-ldap-db.lo] Error 1 | gmake[5]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/etc/dovecot/SOURCE/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole/src/lib-sieve/storage/ldap' [...] | gmake: *** [all] Error 2 My configure run logfile shows: [...] | config.status: creating src/lib-sieve/storage/ldap/Makefile [...] | script drivers . : file dict | : -ldap This happens at FreeBSD-STABLE (clang 3.4.1, gmake 3.82) with dovecot at 2d2d75ac6715 and pigeonhole at 1475892e8cff. Any ideas what went wrong? (I'm back to pigeonhole 0.4.3 (1c6130ff5dd6) for the time being.) Thanks and regards, Michael

Fwd: Disconnected (no auth attempts)
by Michael Pierce 28 Jul '14

28 Jul '14

Hi, Firstly, I'd like to apologise if this is really simple or the answers available easily. I have searched and tried to solve this alone but with no success. I'm having an issue with dovecot to which its reporting "Disconnected (no auth attempts)" in the info log file. From what I understand this is usually due to SSL not being enabled (however, ssl = required is in the config). I hope someone can help. I have included config file, and log file information below.

mdbox "doveadm purge" strategy
by Jesus Cea 28 Jul '14

28 Jul '14

Hi there. I am using mdbox storage with great success but I am seeing something I find strange and I would like to compare notes with you. When doing "doveadm purge", "m.*" files with non deleted messages are left alone, but "m.*" files with deleted messages copy the "non deleted" messages to a newly created "m.*" file and delete the original. Good so far. What surprises me is that the newly created "m.*" files are not fullsize. they can be "small" files, not using the 2MB max size I have configured for mdbox storage. Moreover, those files stay in that size forever, no new messages are appended ever. I guess each old "m.*" file with deleted messages generates a new independent "m.*" containing only the non deleted messages. I wonder if that is the case and if that is a fundamental issue that can't be changed. I would like my "m.*" files to use the full configured mdbox size, instead of having quite a few of new SMALL "m.*" files. Thanks for your time and attention!. -- Jesús Cea Avión _/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ jcea(a)jcea.es - http://www.jcea.es/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ Twitter: @jcea _/_/ _/_/ _/_/_/_/_/ jabber / xmpp:jcea@jabber.org _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "Things are not so easy" _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "My name is Dump, Core Dump" _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "El amor es poner tu felicidad en la felicidad de otro" - Leibniz

struggling with pigeonhole date extensions
by Laeeth Isharc 27 Jul '14

27 Jul '14

I am struggling with how to use the date extension for Dovecot/Pigenhole implementation of Sieve email filtering language. I have read RFC 5260 several times and tried different things with no luck. I would like to place all messages this year up till the end of March into the specified mail folder. What the snippet below actually seems to do is take any messages this year (whether before or after March). Any thoughts? if allof(date :value "eq" :originalzone "date" "year" "2014", date :value "le" :originalzone "date" "month" "3") { fileinto "INBOX/2014 up to Mar"; stop; } Incidentally, it's puzzling how sparse the ecosystem seems to be for managing sieve scripts given the importance of email and the unmanageability of volumes these days without rules. What would be nice to have is something like the Outlook rule manager as a front end and server side sieve scripts on the back. I looked at Modoboa (which seems to be the only standalone option), but it's a bit heavy for my taste and I struggled to configure it in the time I had available. Thanks in advance.

IMAP forward boxes
by Andre Dietrich 26 Jul '14

26 Jul '14

Hi all, since a few weeks I'm experimenting with some "IMAP forward boxes", but I didn't find a satisfactory solution yet. Target function is a directory structure like following in a shared mailbox: /intern/users/fred /intern/users/ted /intern/users/alice The idea is, that a mail, moved to the directory "/intern/users/fred" via IMAP-client will be forwarded to "fred(a)test.domain" without modifying the mail (except the header line "delivered to:"). So if you get a mail in your inbox and want fred to answer it, you drag'n'drop it to /intern/users/fred. Fred gets the mail in his inbox and can answer it. To share all inboxes, to drop mails directly to them, is not an option, because I don't want everybody to see all other inboxes mails. Only to apply "-w-" ACL rights isn't an option either, because it seems to irritate the mail clients. Some month ago I had a partially working solution using a cron bash script. The script read the mails in the cur and new folders, processed the folders path and passed it to sendmail. It's ok, but it has to run quite often to get an adequate forwarding time and on sendmail errors mails got lost without any notification. It would be nice to have a dot-forward file in this subfolder (like in the qmail mailbox root), which is processed by dovecot when a mail is dropped in. Is it possible to solve this with a sieve script, a dot-forward file, or something similar ? I'm grateful for all solutions / ideas ! thx! Andre

Pigeonhole Sieve LDAP support
by Stephan Bosch 25 Jul '14

25 Jul '14

Hi, Yesterday, I committed two important and rather big changes to the Pigeonhole repository. The first creates a generic interface for implementing Sieve script storages. It was already possible to some extent to read Sieve scripts from other sources than the local filesystem, such as Dovecot dict, but that was still pretty limited, as it was not possible to do this with sieve_before/sieve_after. This is now supported. But, more importantly, ManageSieve did not support storing Sieve scripts on locations other than the local filesystem. Now, alternatives can be implemented. Still, I haven't actually implemented write access to a storage other than the local filesystem yet, but now this would be much easier to achieve. The second creates an LDAP script storage implementation. Much like the dict storage, it is still read-only. It can be compiled directly into the Sieve interpreter, and, alternatively, it can also be compiled as a plugin called sieve_storage_ldap. I've updated the documentation in the sources. For all Xi repository users: I added compilation of LDAP storage as a plugin. Read the INSTALL files and other files referenced therein for more information about how to use the plugin. The plugin is installed as part of the dovecot-ldap package. This is a rather big change, but it should all be backwards compatible in terms of configuration. If you have problems (I heard about one so far), please don't hesitate to notify me. Regards, Stephan.

Maildir migration - using separate INDEX and CONTROL directories?
by Richard Hector 24 Jul '14

24 Jul '14

Hi all, I'm working on a migration from Courier to Dovecot, and the courier-dovecot-migrate.pl seems to work ok, but it puts all the metadata files (dovecot-uidlist etc) in the Maildir, while I want to put them in the appropriate places as specified: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/var/mail/meta/index/%d/%1n/%1.1n/%n:CONTROL=/var/mail/meta/control/%d/%1n/%1.1n/%n http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/FS explains why some of these files need to go in different places (which is why I'm doing it), but I haven't seen a complete list of what files will be moved as a result of those directives. Is there a handy tool to move the files to the right places? Or is there a complete list of what files need to go where? Thanks, Richard

Sieve plugin (fc17 + sendmail + roundcube)
by Franck CALLEJA 24 Jul '14

24 Jul '14

Hello, I'm trying to configure sieve plugin on my mail server so that people can do mail filtering (and mostly vacation notification) on their account. The mail server is running fine since 5 years and is based on :- sendmail- dovecot- roundcube It serves 2 differents domains. I've recently installed pigeonhole for fc17, and managed to configure managesieve plugin in roundcube successfully. Users can now manage filters from roundcube. The problem is that filters are not applied when new mails arrives. I've modified dovecot.conf to activate sieve plugin, and the configuration is as follow : # dovecot -n# 2.1.16: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf# OS: Linux 3.8.13-100.fc17.x86_64 x86_64 Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle) log_path = /var/log/dovecot.logmail_debug = yesmail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%umanagesieve_notify_capability = mailtomanagesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihavembox_write_locks = fcntlnamespace 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 { driver = pam}plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = ~/sieve}protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieveservice imap-login { service_count = 0}service lmtp { executable = lmtp -L}service pop3-login { service_count = 0}ssl_cert = </etc/pki/dovecot/certs/dovecot.pemssl_key = </etc/pki/dovecot/private/dovecot.pemuserdb { driver = passwd}protocol lmtp { info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-lmtp.log mail_plugins = " sieve"}protocol lda { mail_plugins = " sieve"} In /etc/sendmail.cf I've this configured :# cat /etc/mail/sendmail.mc divert(-1)dnl include(`/usr/share/sendmail-cf/m4/cf.m4')dnl VERSIONID(`setup for linux')dnl OSTYPE(`linux')dnl define(`confLOG_LEVEL', `15')dnl define(`confDEF_USER_ID', ``8:12'')dnl define(`confTO_CONNECT', `5m')dnl define(`confTRY_NULL_MX_LIST', `True')dnl define(`confDONT_PROBE_INTERFACES', `True')dnl define(`PROCMAIL_MAILER_PATH', `/usr/bin/procmail')dnl define(`ALIAS_FILE', `/etc/aliases')dnl define(`STATUS_FILE', `/var/log/mail/statistics')dnl define(`UUCP_MAILER_MAX', `2000000')dnl define(`confUSERDB_SPEC', `/etc/mail/userdb.db')dnl define(`confPRIVACY_FLAGS', `authwarnings,novrfy,noexpn,restrictqrun')dnl define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A')dnl define(`confMIN_QUEUE_AGE', `15m')dnl define(`confTO_QUEUERETURN', `5m')dnl define(`confMAX_MESSAGE_SIZE', `15000000')dnl define(`confDONT_BLAME_SENDMAIL', `forwardfileingroupwritabledirpath,ForwardFileInUnsafeDirPath,ForwardFileInUnsafeDirPathSafe')dnl define(`confTO_IDENT', `0')dnlFEATURE(`no_default_msa', `dnl')dnl FEATURE(`smrsh', `/usr/sbin/smrsh')dnl FEATURE(`mailertable', `hash -o /etc/mail/mailertable.db')dnl FEATURE(`virtusertable', `hash -o /etc/mail/virtusertable.db')dnl FEATURE(`genericstable',`hash -o /etc/mail/genericstable.db')dnlGENERICS_DOMAIN_FILE(`/etc/mail/generics-domains')dnlFEATURE(redirect)dnl FEATURE(always_add_domain)dnl FEATURE(use_cw_file) FEATURE(use_ct_file)dnl FEATURE(local_procmail, `', `procmail -t -Y -a $h -d $u')dnl FEATURE(`access_db', `hash -T<TMPF> -o /etc/mail/access.db')dnl FEATURE(`blacklist_recipients')dnlEXPOSED_USER(`root')dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp, Name=MTA')dnlFEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl FEATURE(`relay_hosts_only')dnl FEATURE(`dnsbl', `ipwhois.rfc-ignorant.org',`"550 Mail from " $&{client_addr} " refused.
