Re: [Dovecot] Postfix, Dovecot SASL and Entourage smtps authentication fails.
Tere. I think it is mostly a Entourage problem. I just decided to switch to Apple Mail since it works much better with IMAP than Entourage. I'm pretty sure, this is Entourage problem, as Apple Mail (IPhone -s too) works well, but as a lot clients using Entourage as calendar, etc, they just won't change the mail client. If proven, that Dovecot is act by standards, and Entourage does not, I must use Cyrus-sasl also in future but first I must be sure, that I haven't made any mistakes on my side. -- Mart

Hmm, You are right, postfix install inserted into config lines:
# Postfix - suggested configuration taken from SASL_README

mechanisms = plain

socket listen
{
client
{
path =
/var/spool/postfix/private/auth

}
But right after this comes next, old part:
# Space separated list of wanted authentication
mechanisms:
# plain login digest-md5 cram-md5 ntlm rpa apop anonymous gssapi otp
skey
#
gss-spnego
# NOTE: See also disable_plaintext_auth
setting.
mechanisms =
plain
And Dovecot accepts the last one:(.
So it's my mistake, but I was taught, that Dovecot always give error on
startup, if any double config lines exist.
Now dovecot -n looks better:
auth default:
mechanisms: plain login
cache_size: 1024
failure_delay: 3
passdb:
driver: pam
args: cache_key=%u%r%s dovecot
userdb:
driver: passwd
socket:

client:

user: postfix
group: postfix
And also shows up:
50-PIPELINING
250-SIZE
250-ETRN
250-STARTTLS
250-AUTH PLAIN LOGIN
250-AUTH=PLAIN LOGIN
250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES

And Entourage works fine. Also with smtpd_tls_auth_only = yes settings.
Super.

[Dovecot] bad maildir location
Hi, I use dovecot 1.0.15 on Debian Lenny. In my /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf, i use user_query = SELECT path, 33 AS uid, uid AS gid FROM mail_users WHERE alias = '%u' The result is something like this /var/alternc/mail/d/denis_collectifs.net and is the correct location (the Maildir is created by an script) But the problem is that dovecot creates (when you log in for the first time) a directory in the form of the exact address. Here for example, /var/alternc/mail/d/de...@collectifs.net And so all connections will be on an empty location. How is it possible to resolve this? As mail_location I have this maildir:/var/alternc/mail/%1u/%u/Maildir which is not really correct. Thanks Denis PS: For now, I temporarily symlinks /var/alternc/mail/d/de...@collectifs.net /var/alternc/mail/d/denis_collectifs.net

Re: [Dovecot] FTS Plugin design
Thank you for all tips. The design look more clear to me now. I have one more question. I looked into fts_build_want_index_part() and I saw that I need to add some flags to message_part_flags, what values should I choose? My first approach was to follow your schema and set MESSAGE_PART_FLAG_ATTACHMENT = 0x16. There is any problem with this? I already had changed parse_content_type() to set ctx-part-flags correctly but if i choose my custom flag dovecot assume that all attachment lines are headers. I already tried to set those ctx-part-flags as TEXT and the fts_backend was feeded correctly with all attachment lines. I don't know if this is related with the value of MESSAGE_PART_FLAG_ATTACHMENT or if I am missing something (like setting block.hdr = NULL or some more code to handle new flags).

Currently indexing isn't done while messages are being saved, but instead just before searching. The searching functions are: - fts_mailbox_search_init() tries to figure out if FTS can optimize the search. If it does, it tries to figure out if FTS index is up-to-date and if not, starts the search. - fts_mailbox_search_next_nonblock() continues the indexing (or searching after indexing) for a while. The idea is that IMAP connection is able to process other commands while doing a long-running search. So fts plugin indexes FTS_SEARCH_NONBLOCK_COUNT (50) messages at a time. It would be nice if that value was dynamically calculated and also based on bytes instead of messages, but that's maybe too much trouble. - fts_mailbox_search_next_update_seq() uses the fts search results and updates mail-storage's search stuff so that it doesn't go through messages that don't match. - fts_build_mail() indexes a single mail. It parses the messages and returns the data in small blocks. For text/* and message/rfc822 parts those blocks are currently sent to FTS backend. This is where I think you should look into hooking your attachment parsing. Change fts_build_want_index_part() to look for more content-types that you're interested in and then before feeding the blocks to FTS backend put them through your own converter function, something like: int attachment_extract_text(struct attachment_extract_context *ctx, const struct message_block *input, struct message_block *output); -- mobile: +351 963446125 mail: rui@gmail.com mail: ei04...@fe.up.pt website: http://paginas.fe.up.pt/~ei04073http://paginas.fe.up.pt/%7Eei04073
[Dovecot] Multiple instances and/or separate certificates per email address
Hi, We have a mail server with multiple instances of Postfix each listening on a different IP address to create a set of virtual mail servers. There are various reasons why separate instances of Postfix seems to work best to achieve this goal, but I wont divert into that discussion here. I would like so match this with Dovecot. The listening side isn't a problem as Dovecot can listen on multiple explicit IP addresses. However, we would prefer a separate SSL certificate for each virtual mail server i.e. for each IP address. Would it be better to have multiple instances of Dovecot on the server (not sure what the issues might be with this) or would it be better/easier to be able to specify separate SSL certificates for each listen address, since there isn't any other reason I can see to have multiple instances. Any thought? Is there a way to do this now or would this be a new feature request?

[Dovecot] UW-IMAP migration to namespaces
Hello,
I am trying to migrate existing UW-IMAP installation to dovecot 1.1.14
and I am having troubles with namespaces.
As you know UW-IMAP allows full system access to home directory of a
user and you can set up dovecot to do that as well, but I would like to
use namespaces.
If I set my namespaces like this:
namespace private {
separator = /
prefix =
inbox = yes
location = mbox:~/:INBOX=~/.mailbox
hidden = yes
list = yes
}
namespace private {
separator = /
prefix = mail/
location = mbox:~/mail
prefix = mail/
hidden = yes
}
Everything is working fine, but I am seeing also all other files in home
directory of a user, but this is annoying if you have users with
public_html folder with millions of files in it. Dovecot indexing makes
index.log file for every file seen in namespace, so you have several
million index files for files that are not mailboxes.
So I was wondering is there a way to skip certain directories in
namespaces or a way to setup namespaces in a way, that you would have:
- INBOX in home directory
- some folders in home directory (via .subscriptions)
- some folders in %h/mail/ directory
- and not seeing all other files/directories in home dir
Thanks in advance,
regards, Jernej
[Dovecot] 0 mails available even if mails in mailbox
Hello We are currently facing the problem, that dovecot doesn't return any messages (Pop3: +OK 0 messages) even if there are messages in the cur and new directory (maildir format). The logfile does not contain any information other than login/logout. After I deleted the dovecot.index file, all messages are available and everything works as expected. According to the wiki page [1] the main index file should be synchronized when the cur and new timestamps changed. I suppose this synchronization doesn't work correctly because the problem still existed after I changed the timestamps manually. Dovecot version: 10.0.14 Operating System: FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p1 CPU Arch: amd64 Filesystem: NFS Clients: The problem exists on Pop3 and IMAP. It doesn't matter which client. I could reproduce the problem on outlook, thunderbird and even on telnet.

Re: [Dovecot] Setup Question
Looks about right... I have a very similar setup, but i authenticate
to Active Directory via LDAP and it works very good.
If you have or may get more domains i would set up mail_location to
something like this: /home/vmail/%d/%u that way you are ready for
growth and everything is kept organized by domains. Just a thought.

1. Create a new vmail user and group.
2. Have all mail delivered for each user to the /home/vmail/

since Dovecot is the only thing touching the mail files anyway.
3. Change the mail_location setting in dovecot.conf to

4. Uncomment the auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master

Re: [Dovecot] Setup Question
Thank you. I like that suggestion. I will probably do that.
Any recommendation on moving the mail over from the old location to the
new location without messing up any of the date/time stamps on the
messages? I use maildir format.

Looks about right... I have a very similar setup, but i authenticate
to Active Directory via LDAP and it works very good.
If you have or may get more domains i would set up mail_location to
something like this: /home/vmail/%d/%u that way you are ready for
growth and everything is kept organized by domains. Just a thought.

1. Create a new vmail user and group.

If I set my namespaces like this:

prefix = mail/
location = mbox:~/mail
prefix = mail/

That's a bit weird way to set them up. I'd think that the second
namespace doesn't do anything useful since it would work the same with
the first namespace as well. Except the INBOX location perhaps is
different then.
So I was wondering is there a way to skip certain directories in
namespaces or a way to setup namespaces in a way, that you would have:
- INBOX in home directory
- some folders in home directory (via .subscriptions)
- some folders in %h/mail/ directory
- and not seeing all other files/directories in home dir
No. That's way too much of a special case. Best would be if you just
managed to move all the mailboxes to ~/mail/ and make Dovecot use only
that directory.

The logfile does not contain any information other than login/logout. After I deleted the dovecot.index file, all messages are available and everything works as expected. According to the wiki page [1] the main index file should be synchronized when the cur and new timestamps changed. I suppose this synchronization doesn't work correctly because the problem still existed after I changed the timestamps manually. Did you check that the timestamp also really changes in the server Dovecot was running on? Could be a NFS caching problem.

If I can get + addressing working, I don't need the sieve script so I will remove it. Thanks, Jeff It works if I change the folder name to lowercase. But, it seems to be delivering the message twice to the folder. Not sure why that is yet. Plus, I am no longer getting the sieve errors. Must be something to do with the folder name mismatch.

[Dovecot] Active Directory LDAP authentication fails after a time
Hi -
I've got Dovecot version 1.0.7 running on a CentOS 5.2 machine. It's
serving pop, imap and imaps and authenticating against an Active Directory
machine. This all works fine at first, but after about two weeks or so,
dovecot's authentication against AD starts to fail. All of dovecot's
authentication attempts time out. I also have postfix on the same machine
authenticating against the same AD, and it does not seem to experience this
issue. If I restart dovecot, the authentication starts working again.
I've gone over /var/log/maillog, but I don't see anything particularly
useful. The only thing I really see is:
dovecot: IMAP(noah): Disconnected for inactivity
Here's some of the relevant portions of my configs:
dovecot.conf
auth default {
mechanisms = plain
passdb ldap {
args = /etc/dovecot-ldap.conf
}
passdb passwd-file {
args = /etc/dovecot/passdb
master = yes
}
userdb static {
args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/vmail/%u
}
user = root
}
dovecot-ldap.conf
hosts = admachine.domain.com
base = dc=domain,dc=com
ldap_version = 3
auth_bind = yes
auth_bind_userdn = DOMAIN\%u
Does anybody have any ideas about why this is happening, or maybe just an
idea about how to better troubleshoot it? If you need any more info, I'll
be happy to provide it. Can I tell dovecot to be a little more verbose with
it's log entries (I've already got auth_debug set to yes, but I'm not
getting very much info)?
Thanks!
Noah

How simple is that? Since ClamAV scanns all mail, it might be too processor-intensive for really large mail systems, but it is working great for our 120+ user system with lots of spam coming in. If you're using Procmail or some other preprocessor that can hand off to a pipe, then you could skip the plugin and pipe messages over a certain size (i.e. 1024) to clamd, instead. Enjoy! James

Dovecot is 1.2-rc3, namespace configuration as follows:
namespace private {
separator = /
prefix = INBOX/
inbox = yes
subscriptions = yes
}
namespace public {
separator = /
prefix = #Shared/
location =
maildir:/var/spool/dovecot/sharedfolders:INDEX=~/Maildir/index/public:CONTROL=~/Maildir/control/public
subscriptions = yes
}
namespace shared {
separator = /
prefix = #User/%%u/
location =
maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/index/shared/%%u:CONTROL=~/Maildir/control/shared
subscriptions = yes
list = yes
}
I tried without CONTROL= directory in the shared namespace, but that made no
difference.
Contents of the subscriptions (with CONTROL=) file after subscribing:
ForTestUser

If somebody sends mail to JEFF instead of jeff it is saying user unknown. How do I tell the pipe command in Postfix to lowercase the username but not the extension? You can also do this in Dovecot. For example auth_username_format=%Lu I just found that parameter. I just set it and restarted Dovecot. Going to test it right now. Thanks.

The CONTROL must have also %%u in it, otherwise different shared users'
control files get mixed together and everything breaks.
Preferably you should also be using subscriptions=no so you wouldn't
have to specify CONTROL at all, but for that you'd need to have a
namespace with prefix=.
Anyway, this fixes subscriptions=yes:

Thanks. I completely overlooked that missing part.

Would an additional namespace, for subscriptions only, work? I would
like to keep all subfolders of an Mailbox under INBOX/ .

Works, thanks.

Would an additional namespace, for subscriptions only, work? I would like to keep all subfolders of an Mailbox under INBOX/ . It would be possible to do both. The INBOX/ could be set up as a hidden namespace and the namespace would be the default one. Or is there a reason why you wouldn't want namespace to show up anything? Or you could also see if you could create a private namespace with prefix=#User/ and subscriptions=yes, perhaps with location=maildir:/var/lib/dovecot/empty:CONTROL=~/Maildir/shared where the empty directory would be a world-readable non-writable empty directory.

[Dovecot] Sieve redirect
Is there an alternative to the redirect Sieve capability?
For example:
if header :contains Subject Listserv {
redirect list-us...@example.com;
redirect list-us...@example.com;
redirect list-us...@example.com;
stop;
}
How can I do the above without using redirect?
Unfortunately, redirect seems to be unsupported by Dovecot.
Thank you.

Here's why I posted this:
sievec global.before.sieve global.before.svbin
line 7: error: unsupported sieve capability 'redirect'.
error: validation failed.
Error: failed to compile sieve script 'global.before.sieve'

Re: [Dovecot] Sieve redirect
maybe you need to include vacation?
require vacation;
if header :contains Subject Listserv {
redirect list-us...@example.com;
