eh? that says you did not log in pop3, and postfix by default will
relay for localhost, well, with most configs in mynetworks having

You need to check your postconf -n output as well to make sure it
knows dovecot.
postconf -ashould show dovecot (maybe cyrus as well, but it needs to
know dovecot)
Any thoughts or recommendations?
If you followed whatever guide it was in full, and have triple checked

[Dovecot] Dovecot IMAPS and slow reconnections
Hi List,
I've recently moved from postfix + courier-imap to a new server with
postfix + dovecot with a mysql user management.
I have it up and running and receiving mail ok but I'm having problems
with IMAP connections being slow. I have an iphone with multiple imap
accounts set up on it (4 I think) and when I open the mail app it
connects to first account quickly. Then if I navigate to another account
it takes about 1 minute to connect (sits there with the 'connecting'
status)
Looking at the logs it shows the connection come through at the same
time the iphone actually connects so it's as if something is timing out
before it actually connects.
My setup is an Amazon EC2 micro instance running debian wheezy. There
is about 5 domains being hosted with approximately 4-5 accounts for each
so it's not a heavy load by any means. I've tried bumping up the max
connections, service_count and minimum processes but nothing seems to
help.
Any advice is much appreciated.

It would appear that port 110 is not opened on your firewall, and is that IP address one that is assigned to your External WAN interface on your Comcast connection? The VM should have a Privately assigned IP address as given by the VM Software.

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.2 multiple master user passdb's not working anymore
Hi,
after an update from dovecot 2.1.16 to 2.2.0 I encountered a problem
when using multiple master user passdb's like the following:
%-
passdb {
args = /etc/dovecot/passwd.foo-master
driver = passwd-file
master = yes
}
passdb {
args = /etc/dovecot/passwd.bar-master
driver = passwd-file
master = yes
}
%-
The former behavior that the passdb's are searched sequentially
to find the given master user doesn't seem to work anymore.
Only the first passdb is searched, and thus authentication will fail
for all master users which are not defined in the first passdb.
Because I cannot find any hint that the master user handling has
changed fundamentally it looks like a bug, but maybe I missed
configuration related changes from 2.1 to 2.2 that is causing this new
behavior.
Cheers,
Chris

[Dovecot] [PATCH] mailbox_get_metadata() for mailboxes with open transactions.
Hi everyone,
I am writing a dovecot statistic plugin, which calls
mailbox_get_metadata() to get the virtual size of the mailbox, if a mail
is copied. I have noticed that mailbox_get_metadata() calls
mailbox_sync(), and mailbox_sync() will fail for the mailboxes with open
transactions. But if a mail is copied, there must be at least one
transaction opened for the mailbox. So I can not get the virtual size.
Commit [1] has fixed the same problem in mailbox_get_status(). I think
the same should also be done in mailbox_get_metadata(). See the patch below.

If you hook into mailbox_copy() you'll be calling it for each mail separately that is copied within the same command. Also you're calling it even if the copy fails later (e.g. IMAP COPY gets aborted if some messages are missing). So you should delay calling it until after transaction commit (set your own flag to the transaction that messages were copied). Maybe even until the next sync is called. Commit [1] has fixed the same problem in mailbox_get_status(). I think the same should also be done in mailbox_get_metadata(). See the patch below. Too much of a chance of breaking some code that relies on the current behavior.

If there are no changes it's pretty much instant even with 1M mail mailbox. With changes it's still fast enough (and could be faster still by using incremental syncing with saved state via -s parameter). Ok. Actually, I had benched an initial dsync (i.e. no mail in destination) with a parallelized rsync of precalculated (by an home made tool) chunks of files of the maildir. For a ~3.3G Maildir, dsync took ~1 hour vs 10 min with 4 rsync at a time. This of course is a very unfair comparison to dsync since I was using a cluster to parallelise rsyncs. But as you said, dsync could be wiser, so I was thinking of using parallel rsync to make the initial mirror and then use dsync instead of rsync in the final step described in the dsync wiki. I'm still not sure if I should forbid dovecot auth temporary (using auth-deny for instance) or try the seemless way. Besides, how about client side indexing while in this incoherent, not yet fully sync'ed state ? Wouldn't there be corruption risk ?

If there's any chance that an IMAP client could have seen two different messages with the same UID, both of the messages get assigned new UIDs. That's why I was wondering only about the case that I mentioned. There the client couldn't have seen two different messages, but it's possible that some client could hide the mail 123 because it thought it got lost.

From your store site it does not appear so. Glusterfs isn't really object storage (unless they've changed since I last looked at them), and it already more or less works with Dovecot using the existing mailbox formats. Except last I heard it still caused index file corruption. Openstack Swift support is coming. There's a half-working version of it already, would need just a day or two to finish it up. I haven't looked at Ceph closely yet, but it would be nice to support it as well. obox can also be used with a regular POSIX filesystem, although it loses the prefetching capabilities then. So it could be used with e.g. Glusterfs or NFS to provide an efficient local cache. I've also thought about trying out if prefetching could be done by creating new diskio processes with a ton of threads doing the actual disk I/O. Timo, Riak CS is S3 compatible. Just curious if you have tested with Riak CS (especially the multi-data center implementation).

[Dovecot] Delete_to_Trash plugin and quota problem
Hello list... I am new at dovecot and I have a problem with it; any help will be very grateful We have a exchange server with outlook at the client side, and we are migrating the exchange server to postfix/dovecot(1.2.15) solution. I enabled the deleted-to-trash plugin (v0.3) to move the messages to the Trash folder automatically when it is deleted. Also, I am using quota and quota_imap plugins to maintain the quota for users. The quota rule for Trash folder is unlimit. The problem is, when the client reach their maximum quota and try to delete a mail in the inbox to release space. The delete to trash plugin effectively copy it to the Trash folder, but the original mail still remain (marked for delete) at the inbox folder and the quota does not released.

virtual_transport = lmtp:unix:/_ROOT/var/run/dovecot/lmtp

for having mail delivered into a user's INBOX.
But as soon as I try the security improvement suggested in the docs:
service lmtp {

}
this is what I get in the logs:

and the message of course remains in Postfix' queue.
I understand that the +x workaround suggested for the auth-userdb socket (so as
to have 0777 permissions instead of 0666) relies on provisions made in
Dovecot's code in order to relax some requirements.
But I still need help for a correct interpretation...
The socket receives 0666 permissions by default; any process should thus be
able to read from/write to that socket.
So, why set such a default, since it is anyway going to yield un-intuitive
results?
And, as far as the log messages are concerned:
client doesn't have lookup permissions
Who's the client here?
Still from the log: client doesn't have lookup permissions for this user:.
Which user?
userdb reply doesn't contain uid
The userdb query seems to have failed; but does it mean that is should
explicitly return a uid?
TIA,
Axel

From your store site it does not appear so. Glusterfs isn't really object storage (unless they've changed since I last looked at them), and it already more or less works with Dovecot using the existing mailbox formats. Except last I heard it still caused index file corruption. Openstack Swift support is coming. There's a half-working version of it already, would need just a day or two to finish it up. I haven't looked at Ceph closely yet, but it would be nice to support it as well. obox can also be used with a regular POSIX filesystem, although it loses the prefetching capabilities then. So it could be used with e.g. Glusterfs or NFS to provide an efficient local cache. I've also thought about trying out if prefetching could be done by creating new diskio processes with a ton of threads doing the actual disk I/O. Timo, Riak CS is S3 compatible. Just curious if you have tested with Riak CS (especially the multi-data center implementation). I've only tested it against Amazon S3. But if it's fully API compatible, I don't see why it wouldn't work..

[Dovecot] Dovecot 2.1.16: Mail server input error: UPDATE-SESSION pop3: stats shrank

Can you fix these strange stats plugin errors please?
These are the only errors regularly occurring in our 2.1.10 logs:

error: UPDATE-SESSION: stats shrank: mlpath 429 622

error: UPDATE-SESSION: stats shrank: mlpath 436 622
It's strange that I can't figure out how to reproduce this no matter what I
do. Could you with latest hg, especially:
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.1/rev/c81f1ca3cda6
and also the attached patch, which simplifies the stats plugin?
Yes, version 2.1.13 plus the simplification patch fixes the problem.
Please apply :)
Version 2.1.16 logs the following error:
Apr 16 18:07:58 10.129.3.249 dovecot: stats: Error: Mail server input error:
UPDATE-SESSION us...@example.org pop3: stats shrank: mlpath 1 2
Apr 16 18:46:44 10.129.3.233 dovecot: stats: Error: Mail server input error:
UPDATE-SESSION us...@example.org pop3: stats shrank: mlpath 3 4
Were there any reasons NOT to apply stats.diff the 2.1.x branch or did you
simply overlook my mail?

Daniel
