[Dovecot] dspam integration
Hi, I see http://johannes.sipsolutions.net/Projects/dovecot-antispam and http://blog.cynapses.org/2007/09/13/dovecot-dspam-plugin/ solutions. Second git repo is not answer, first one is cloned, but I see some drawbacks with it. Dspam backend is more native solution but libdspam using instead of dspam external binary looks like preffered way to integrate dspam. Another problem is waiting for dspam child process exit, so IMAP session is blocked. Why not to fork and forget dspam child process? Email sender backend is non-blocking, but using MTA is great overhead. Calling external program with some args and mail body via pipe can be more suitable way, so external program may be dspam binary directly or shell/perl/python filter to any antispam engine via sendmail or something else. Has anybody plans to implement this features or it will be better to try it myself?

[Dovecot] How to write plugin
Hi, Where can I find documentation for plugin writers? Now I see mail-log-plugin source, but I can't understand how entry points (functions mail-log-plugin-init and mail-log-plugin-deinit) are defined to execute some actions on load/unload/copy messages. Can anybody comments this?

Finally I was able to rebuild it by adding a file called
/etc/rpm/macros.atrpms with the following contents:
%bcond_with() %{expand:%%{?_with_%{1}:%%global with_%{1} 1}}
%bcond_without()%{expand:%%{!?_without_%{1}:%%global with_%{1} 1}}

This may be off topic - but you could always use something like imapproxy in front of your dovecot IMAP daemon.

Re: [Dovecot] imap process consuming 100% CPU (Dovecot 1.0.3)
I think I'm seeing this with TBird and 1.0.7...with my own account! It
may even be a Tbird problem.
I have a 4way mail server, so when I get 25%, it's 100% of one
processor. I tried killing the imap process on the server and it can
back at 9% and climbed quickly back up to 25%. It wasn't until I
shutdown my TBird session that a clean imap session was established.

No, the behavior isn't cured. We still continue to see it

We also are seeing imap processes consuming 100% CPU. We have
installed Dovecot v1.0.5 and still see the problem. I have a user
who can pretty reliably reproduce the problem. It occurs each
morning after the imap connection has been idling all night. The
user is running Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 (I think) on Solaris. On the
client side, he see an hourglass that never goes away, has to shut
down Thunderbird.
Below is a log, which shows how the CPU is being used (the ps commands
are done one right after another) and a dbx trace of the state of
the imap process. I'm hoping that's enough info to figure out what's
happening.
Thanks much,

Both options, yes and no makes the mail display the same way in Squirrelmail. Is this a problem with the way Dovecot is sending the information to Squirrelmail, or is this a problem with the way Squirrelmail is interpreting the data from Dovecot? Does this still happen with newer betas? Have you checked what the message file's mtime is? Use received date means IMAP's INTERNALDATE which is taken from the file's mtime. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Some things you could try: Does Cygwin have strace? Run strace -f dovecot to see if it shows something interesting. Is the problem with starting dovecot-auth or after dovecot-auth has already started? Try setting auth_executable = /tmp/test.sh where test.sh is something like: #!/bin/sh echo i'm running /tmp/dovecot.output exit 0 If that worked, try adding exit(0); as the first statement in src/auth/main.c's main() function to see if it returns 53 before or after it reaches that far. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
