So when I try and create a sub mailbox in shared-folders, I get this error… imap(pid 56143 user -----): Fatal: master: service(imap): child 56143 killed with signal 11 (core dumps disabled) I’ve not been able to figure out how to get dovecot in OS X to core dump, so I haven’t included that.

[Dovecot] Syntax of pattern in map section
by da-dovecotlist-15＠abelonline.de 20 Feb '14

20 Feb '14

I can't seem to find any documentation on the meaning/syntax of the "pattern" variable in map sections that are found in dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext for example. I am trying to setup shared folders. The only thing[1] I found is: >>First you'll need to know what kind of dict paths the code uses. ACL >>plugin uses these paths: >> >>shared/shared-boxes/anyone/$owner >>shared/shared-boxes/user/$user/$owner >>shared/shared-boxes/group/$group/$owner What is a "dict path"? Is this some kind of hard coded identifier in the Dovecot code? I need to understand how they work because I can't use the example in http://wiki2.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared. This is because in my PostreSQL table users are not a single column but two columns with the local and domain part[2]: Table "public.shared_mailboxes" Column | Type -----------------------+------------------------ shared_mailbox_local | character varying(64) shared_mailbox_domain | character varying(253) shared_to_local | character varying(64) shared_to_domain | character varying(253) How should a map section look in this case? [1]http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2009-April/038922.html [2]I did this in order to use REFERENCES to ensure the user exist. Kind regards

[Dovecot] Warning: mysql: Query failed, retrying: Unknown column 'filter' in 'where clause'
by Thomas Creutz 20 Feb '14

20 Feb '14

Hi List, I have a problem with dovecot 2.2.12 and sieve-filter call: su -c 'sieve-filter -D -v -W -C -u account(a)domain.tld /var/vmail/domain.tld/account/.sieve INBOX.Refilter' vmail gives me sieve-filter(vmail): Error: user account(a)domain.tld: Auth USER lookup failed sieve-filter(vmail): Fatal: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. on log file I see this: Feb 17 16:21:34 mail1 dovecot: auth-worker(8430): Warning: mysql: Query failed, retrying: Unknown column 'filter' in 'where clause' Feb 17 16:21:34 mail1 dovecot: auth-worker(8430): Error: sql(account(a)domain.tld): User query failed: Unknown column 'filter' in 'where clause' but I never used filter in dovecot: grep -iR filter /etc/dovecot/ gives me no result (and yes the dir is right). Any Idea whats wrong? I know it tells me, that the column is missing in the Database - but why I need it? I also never see it documented somewhere: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/SQL http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields Thomas

[Dovecot] virtualfolders all mails minus duplicates
by Francesco 19 Feb '14

19 Feb '14

Hello everyone, i'm trying to mess up a bit with virtual folders and i'm trying to perform something like this: i'd like to create an IMAP virtual folder which shows me all the emails in in INBOX and subfolders but by removing "duplicates" what i mean as duplicates? simply i can recognize duplicate emails as the ones with the same message-id in the header (this was just an idea). in that way if i have a message which is present in more then one folder then it's displayed only once. i considered the idea of using message-id in the header as a criteria, but i don't know if this can be done in this way or in any way at all. any suggestion is really welcome. i'm using dovecot 1.2.15. this is a namespace example just for reference: for INBOX: namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. #subscriptions = yes #list = no inbox = yes } for virtuals: namespace private { prefix = v. separator = . location = virtual:/var/utenti/%Ld/%n/VirtualFolders list = yes inbox = no subscriptions = yes hidden = no } as of now i'm running a virtualfolder which shows messages flagged as important which is done like this: INBOX INBOX.* all flagged hope you can provide me with some hints. Thanks very much Francesco

[Dovecot] Use header from instead envelope sender - quota exceed
by pgala 19 Feb '14

19 Feb '14

Hi, i want use dovecot and plugin quota to inform users about exceeded space. I also configure postfix to rewrite envelope_sender so envelope_sender<>header: from. Dovecot sent mail with information about exceeded space to email in envelope_sender. It is possible to configure that dovecot sent mail to header from address? I need use sender_canonical_maps in postfix because i want also relay mail outgoing. Thanks for helping me, Piotr -- View this message in context: http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/Use-header-from-instead-envelope-sende… Sent from the Dovecot mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Dovecot] Filtering spam in an offlineimap + dovecot setup
by Alan Schmitt 19 Feb '14

19 Feb '14

Hello, To easily access my mail both offline on my computer and on my phone, I am synchronizing a local copy on my computer using offlineimap. As the spam filtering options provided on the server are not sufficient, I am now looking into client-side spam filtering. My current setup is as follows. Mail is synchronized using offlineimap, and delivered to a local dovecot server: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- [Repository LocalIMAP] type = IMAP preauthtunnel = /usr/local/Cellar/dovecot/2.2.10/libexec/dovecot/imap -c ~/.dovecotzimbra.rc --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- The configuration of the local server is simply: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- protocols = imap mail_location = maildir:~/.Maildir/zimbra:INBOX=~/.Maildir/zimbra/.INBOX --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I then read my mail using gnus, and index it using notmuch. A suggestion I've been considering is use the pigeonhole sieve extprograms plugin (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Plugins/Extprograms) to call the spam filter (I've been looking at dspam at the moment). However, I could not find how to configure the use of sieves in the context of offlineimap. Hence my questions: Is it possible to use dovecot sieves in such a setting? Is there a howto that explains how to do it? Should I try to do things in a different way? (I'm ready to change my setup, as long as I can keep an offline copy of my email in sync with a server copy.) Thanks a lot for any suggestion, Alan PS: I used to use SpamSieve (http://c-command.com/spamsieve/) on a Mac Mini that was running continuously as a spam filter drone. This machine has been retired and I'm basically looking for leaner ways to do a similar thing.

[Dovecot] dovecot antispam plugin not found
by Alan Schmitt 19 Feb '14

19 Feb '14

Hello, I'm trying to setup dovecot-antispam, and even though the configuration and the installation seem to have gone well, dovecot is telling me it's not finding it. Here is the symptom: schmitta@top-wifi ~> /usr/local/Cellar/dovecot/2.2.10/libexec/dovecot/imap -c ~/.dovecotzimbra.rc Fatal: Plugin 'antispam' not found from directory /usr/local/Cellar/dovecot/2.2.10/lib/dovecot However there seems to be a plugin there: schmitta@top-wifi ~> ls -al /usr/local/Cellar/dovecot/2.2.10/lib/dovecot/ | grep antispam -rwxr-xr-x 1 schmitta admin 38460 18 fév 22:40 lib90_antispam_plugin.bundle I note that it is the only plugin with the ".bundle" extension, if it's important. My configuration file is as follows (I'm not finished with the antispam configuration yet): --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- protocols = imap mail_location = maildir:~/.Maildir/zimbra:INBOX=~/.Maildir/zimbra/.INBOX default_login_user = _dovenull default_internal_user = _dovecot protocol imap { # mail_plugins = $mail_plugins antispam } protocol lda { log_path = ~/.logs/dovecot-lda-errors.log info_log_path = ~/.logs/dovecot-lda.log mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve } plugin { sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_plugins = sieve_extprograms sieve_extensions = +vnd.dovecot.filter sieve_filter_bin_dir = /usr/local/lib/dovecot/sieve-filter antispam_backend = DSPAM antispam_signature = X-DSPAM-Signature } --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Should I do something special to be able to load the antispam plugin?
