You are using a if/elseif/else statement. When the if clause (which is
always true) is matched, the stuff in the elsif/else clauses is discarded.
You'll need to use 2 separate if statements to make this work.

So :copy acting for me like keep. Do you have any ideas, why this might
happen ?
Yes, your second rule is an elsif, meaning that it is only executed when
the first if-condition is not 'true'. Since that first rule has a forced
'true' result, the second rule is absolutely never executed. You script
should be:
require [fileinto,copy];
# rule:[redirect]
if true
{
redirect :copy al...@domain.com;
}
# rule:[Cron]
if header :contains Subject Cron
{
fileinto INBOX/Cron;
}
Note that the anyof() commands are only necessary when you have multiple
tests per if command. Also, I removed the envelope require, since it is
not used.

[Dovecot] Filtering with Public Namespaces and Sieve Plugin
Hi,
after upgrading to Dovecot 1.2x including the rewritten Sieve plugin replacing
'cmusieve', messages which have formerly been filed to a Public/Mailing-List
maildir are no longer filtered correctly. The sieve script itself is included
in the user's personal-script. The messages are dropped to the INBOX rather
than the Public Namespace Maildir. Log's don't give a hint (at least to me).
The documentation says the personal script should automatically fetch the
include, and compile it in the users home...

Then, you could apply the above patch to check whether it solves your problem. I've tested your setup with the latest Mercurial version and I could not find any problems. Regards, Stephan

[Dovecot] Managesieve configuration problem
Hello!
I'm trying for a lot of time to make managesieve working with dovecot 1.1.17
and virtual users on openSuSE 11.1. I think I'm doing some misconfiguration,
but I can't figure it out. Perhaps it's something with the paths to the sieve
scripts?
In dovecot.conf I find in the comments:
~~
protocol managesieve {
#(...)
# Specifies the location of the symlink pointing to the active script in
# the sieve storage directory. This must match the SIEVE setting used by
# deliver (refer to http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sieve#location for more
# info). Variable substitution with % is recognized.
# Take care: if a file in a maildir: begins with a '.', it is recognized
# as a folder; so, avoid this.
#sieve=~/.dovecot.sieve
sieve = /drbd/mail/vmail/%d/%n/dovecot.sieve
}
~~
This must match the SIEVE setting used by deliver, so I have to take a look
to LDA section, no?
But there I don't find any hint for sieve settings:
~~
protocol lda {
# Address to use when sending rejection mails.
postmaster_address = postmas...@mydomain.tld
# Hostname to use in various parts of sent mails, eg. in Message-Id.
# Default is the system's real hostname.
#hostname =
# Support for dynamically loadable plugins. mail_plugins is a space separated
# list of plugins to load.
mail_plugins = cmusieve quota
mail_plugin_dir = /usr/lib64/dovecot/modules/lda
# If user is over quota, return with temporary failure instead of
# bouncing the mail.
#quota_full_tempfail = no
# Format to use for logging mail deliveries. You can use variables:
# %$ - Delivery status message (e.g. saved to INBOX)
# %m - Message-ID
# %s - Subject
# %f - From address
#deliver_log_format = msgid=%m: %$
# Binary to use for sending mails.
sendmail_path = /usr/lib/sendmail
# Human readable error message for rejection mails. Use can use variables:
# %n = CRLF, %r = reason, %s = subject, %t = recipient
rejection_reason = Your message to %t was automatically rejected:%n%r
# UNIX socket path to master authentication server to find users.
# auth_socket_path = /drbd/mail/var/run/dovecot/auth-master
auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
}
~~
I tried to log in to managesieve manually with gnutls-cli, and that was
successfull. I was able to authenticate.
But when I try to put the example script from dovecot wiki
(http://wiki.dovecot.org/ManageSieve/Troubleshooting)
~~~
PUTSCRIPT hutsefluts {6+}
keep;
~~~
I get no
~
OK Putscript completed.

[Dovecot] sieve filtering setup
I'm looking at implementing sieve in my environment. Software is: dovecot-1.2-sieve revision 1022:3c9a22c28156 dovecot-1.2 revision 9269:a303bb82c1c9 AIX 5.3 with sendmail mta using prescribed deliver lda. I have a few questions. I'll have 110k sieve files(1 for each user). Does sieve read the file each time a new message is accepted by sendmail? Are there any measurements on cpu load for sieve filters?

[Dovecot] sieve delivery to utf folders
Hello list,
Today, my users have noticed, that delivery to folders with non-english names
is broken. For example, if I create russian directory, it correct encoded and
display into mail-client program and my webmail:
Encoded:Normal view
.INBOX.BEIENQRBBEI-русс
This is part of sieve script, which routing delivery to russian folder.
elsif allof (header :contains Subject qwe)
{
fileinto INBOX/BEIENQRBBEI-;
}
But, when actualy delivery take place, in logs I have
Jul 30 17:13:49 deliver(koshiko...@domain.com): Info: sieve:
msgid=4a71a9e6.5040...@domain.com: stored mail into mailbox
'INBOX/-BEIENQRBBEI-
And folder .INBOX.-BEIENQRBBEI- appears in users maildir. This folder can't be
unencoded by mail-client program and user see exactly -BEIENQRBBEI- under
INBOX directory(also normaly encoded directory BEIENQRBBEI- -- русс
displays correct). Something breaks encoding and adds sing - to all words in
utf encoded directory names.
I can't tell exactly when this problem appear, but I remember that I have
tested delivery to russian directories by sieve scripts and all worked fine.
My current dovecot installation is 1.2.2, dovecot-sieve-0.1.9 and
managesieve-0.11.7

You are using mUTF-7 in folder names. According to the Sieve
specification, you must use the UTF-8 version. The fileinto command
internally translates this to the mUTF-7 equivalent, so that the IMAP
server sees it as expected. This is a change of about half a year ago:

I recently found out about something called memcached. The goal of memcached(server)[1] and libmemcached(client library)[2] is to store maps in memory of tokens. So my key would be jsiegle_sieve and my data would be my sieve file. So instead of the 10-20 million reads to disk, we would just pull from memory. The logic looks like this: On update of sieve file, Do validation of file. Do compilation of file. Delete key if it exists and add new. On new mail, sieve plugin would call memcached_get() and get the token. I could be very wrong, but I think this is a big win. memcached is designed for small files(1MB). So if each of my users has a 2KB file, that would only be 20MB of memory for usage.

[Dovecot] imap, locks, and dovecot
Let's say I have two computers -- a desktop and a laptop -- setup to check email on my postfix/dovecot/mailscanner box by using imap. Now, both machines use thunderbird and have a filter in that mail client to move emails that have a certain to: address (an alias, like supp...@domain.com) to a mail directory. The desktop is setup to check for mail every minute while the laptop initially is told to do the same. So, I send an email to the said address. dovecot (1.1.7) puts it in the inbox. thunderbird in one of those machines sees it and moves it to the, say, support folder. Then, another copy of the same mail is created and placed in the same folder. I then begin increasing the time the laptop waits before checking mails. Up to 5 minutes I am still having the double email issue, but if I the laptop to wait 10 minutes I only have one copy of the said email. That makes me think both clients are seeing the same email and moving it at the same time. I do not know the imap commands being used but it sure seems that there is not some kind of locking system for the mail files (I use maildir) to make sure only one program is accessing the said email. Am I correct? Is there a way around that?

There was a long pause where Thunderbird was saying Closing folder Then another long pause as it said Opening folder.

Ran ptruss on the pid that still had the Trash folder open. There was no pid for the Trash.lock file during this time. What do you mean by this? Trash.lock didn't have a PID in it, but you found the PID anyway somehow? It looks to be doing seeks, stats, reads and writes over and over again. Attached is a partial listing of the ptruss command till the lock file went away. It looks like you deleted some messages over 4 MB from the end of file, and Dovecot just moves 4 MB data over the deleted one. It looks like it's being done in pretty inefficient way though.. I guess I should some day improve it, but that's probably going to be annoyingly difficult. Anyway, if you look at where most of the time is spent, it's in the pwrite64() calls.

Just dovecot-uidlist, or also dovecot.index*? If you delete both, UIDVALIDITY is changed. If you delete only dovecot-uidlist, it'll probably preserve UIDVALIDITY and just give new UIDs to messages (because next_uid is also stored in index file). I took for granted that it was that the client would download all messages again since it might be confused by some UID changes. But I don't really see why (on the IMAP protocol level) and I don't know how to reproduce it. My understanding is that . dovecot-uidlist is not recreated until some client selects the mailbox . the client does something like : x UID fetch 1:* (FLAGS) to begin with anyway. So I guess the problem does not occur when no new messages arrive on the mailbox since the same UIDs would be assigned to the same messages ? Well, Dovecot reads the uidlist file lazily. If the index files still exist and you don't try to open any mail or there are no new mails, then uidlist's existence isn't checked and UIDs won't change. But can you show me some IMAP protocol command exchange that would illustrate . when such a problem can occur . how the client would detect that there has been some UID corruption . how it would fix it Either the client notices that UIDVALIDITY changes on SELECT: * OK [UIDVALIDITY 1248669921] UIDs valid Or the UIDs change. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Re: [Dovecot] AIX and posix_fallocate
I bumped into this a while back, and having IBM support for both AIX and the C for AIX V9 compiler, went to the mat on it. What a pointless waste of time; the new IBM increasingly doesn't care about making things right. While IBM has been proclaiming its POSIX compliance, it turned out that AIX and the compiler development have been tasked with its implementation, such as it maybe, only on the JFS2 filesystem. Now they haven't discontinued JFS FS support, but it's a disinterested, neglectful support. Now in the old IBM, everything, but everything, would be tested in n! ways, and everything would work. In the posix_fallocate development, for both AIX and the IBM compiler, apparently nobody did nuffin' with it for the old JFS FS...so until I raised Hell, the call returned a random value error code. Which means that the design team didn't consider JFS at all; not even to the point of documenting non-suppport in JFS. Their charge was JFS2. So they figured out a fix: a patch to return a generic something-wrong errcode. I screamed some more. Their final fix was to return a function not supported errcode. There. Done. It only took 3-4 months. FWIW, the patch will be in the mainline Technical level as follows: This APAR will be available 53V (AIX 53 TL11 ) and 61H (AIX 61 TL4 ). Their POSIX compliance position: we would like to clarify you on below points on posix compliant details in AIX. Your comment: Obviously, if you don't support both of AIX's file systems, you are not totally compliant. Response: Unix standards for posix_fallocate( ) function does not state what all filesystems the implementation need to support. Having said that AIX implementation of posix_fallocate() only supports JFS2. Hence not supporting JFS does not mean that AIX implementation of posix_fallocate() is not posix compliant. However as stated earlier you can open a Design change request for AIX to implement the support of JFS. Regarding the list of non-posix compliant APIs we do not maintain any separate list nor we have any known issues. Developers can get information about APIs from IBM documentation http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/pseries/v5r3/index.jsp and also looking through Open Group standards specification http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/toc.htm Working with the Indian IBM support was intriguing: they were always courteous, but they were only interested in fulfilling checklists, not in making the product right or necessarily making it work. They didn't, as I have seen elsewhere, declare victory by closing out the trouble ticket (PMR in IBMese) without informing you or getting your consentbut they would continue talking and doing not much of anything until you gave up. What I now do is to: 1) run configure 2) edit config.h and put // in front of the HAVE_POSIX_FALLOCATE define, like this: //#define HAVE_POSIX_FALLOCATE 3) then run make as usual I'm sorry; I should have posted this before, but the whole thing left such a bad taste in my mouth all I wanted to do was move on.

In this case the return code has to be checked rather than errno. When patched dovecot handles err==EOPNOTSUPP the same way like errno==EINVAL on Solaris.

First I thought: Why didn't IBM even fix this properly by setting errno?
Then I read posix_fallocate man page:
RETURN VALUE
posix_fallocate() returns zero on success, or an error number on fail‐
ure. Note that errno is not set.

Re: [Dovecot] lock files causing time outs with Thunderbird
The two message were at the end of the Trash folder. I used fuser to find the pids on the Trash and Trash.lock files. fuser reported no pid for the Trash.lock file. The the ptruss was run on the pid on the Trash file. By synchronous writes I'm assuming on the nfs mount options? No, they are async mounts.

I have trash folder with about 3500 messages in it. I went in and deleted two messages from the Trash folder. How close to the end of the mailbox did you delete the messages from? I then clicked back to my inbox. There was a long pause where Thunderbird was saying Closing folder Then another long pause as it said Opening folder. After about two minutes thunderbird looks to have stopped processing and displayed my inbox. But the Trash.lock file stuck around for about another 5 minutes. Ran ptruss on the pid that still had the Trash folder open. There was no pid for the Trash.lock file during this time. What do you mean by this? Trash.lock didn't have a PID in it, but you found the PID anyway somehow? It looks to be doing seeks, stats, reads and writes over and over again. Attached is a partial listing of the ptruss command till the lock file went away. It looks like you deleted some messages over 4 MB from the end of file, and Dovecot just moves 4 MB data over the deleted one. It looks like it's being done in pretty inefficient way though.. I guess I should some day improve it, but that's probably going to be annoyingly difficult. Anyway, if you look at where most of the time is spent, it's in the pwrite64() calls. Many of them can take almost 0.1 seconds. Have you enabled synchronous writes or something? -- C. J.

[Dovecot] Limiting user access
Hello, Is there a way to restrict clients access, for example: us...@domain.com - only access pop3 us...@domain.com - can access pop3 and imap in Dovecot? Thanks !!!

Looks like all posix_*() syscalls do that. Wonder if there are more. Looks like too many people were incorrectly using errno, especially in multi- threaded context. From http://www.unix.org/whitepapers/reentrant.html : In addition, all POSIX.1c functions avoid using errno and, instead, return the error number directly as the function return value, with a return value of zero indicating that no error was detected. This strategy is, in fact, being followed on a POSIX-wide basis for all new functions. But that doesn't solve anything, because old functions' API can't be changed. The only thing this change did was to make it more difficult for programmers to remember how functions' error handling should be done. In both APIs the success is indicated by returning 0, which makes it especially difficult to notice when it's being used wrong. If they really had to change this, it would have been much better to both set errno and return -error, that way it would have allowed also 2/3 of the old style error checks: if (posix_fallocate(..) 0) perror() // works if (posix_fallocate(..) != 0) perror() // works if (posix_fallocate(..) == -1) perror() // doesn't work Now none of them work. I did also a quick google code search for posix_fallocate and found several other programs that handle the error wrong. And I'm sure it's only going to grow. Oh well, maybe some day gcc and libc add some features to catch at least the 0 and == -1 usage (which would already work if posix_fallocate() had been specified to return unsigned int, not int). signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Yes. What passdb do you use? For example in SQL query you could use %s
variable. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables
You could also use an extra deny=yes passdb, for example:
passdb passwd-file {
deny = yes
args = /etc/deny.%Ls
}
and then create /etc/deny.imap having a list of usernames not allowed to
log in with imap.
