Re: Messages sent to alias+detail end up in INBOX
Hi Denis, I expected that when I send a message to alias+det...@mydomain.tld, it would go into the "detail" folder of u...@mydomain.tld. However, it goes into the INBOX folder of u...@mydomain.tld. Is it the intended behavior? It is. To achieve the desired folder, you need a sieve script: https://wiki.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples#Plus_Addressed_mail_filtering Ensure that you also subscribe to newly created mailboxes (lda_mailbox_autosubscribe=yes).

Submission / Postfix / XCLIENT
Hi all, while testing the new Dovecot Submission Proxy feature, which we greatly appreciate and have been anticipating for a long time, some issues occured. Dovecot is unable to submit mails via XCLIENT: < XCLIENT ADDR=185.115.176.12PORT=39074 > 501 5.5.4 Bad ADDR syntax: 185.115.176.12PORT=39074 Postfix is unable to parse the XCLIENT command from Dovecot submission proxy, as a space seems to be missing. After checking the source code, the issue looks easy to fix - at least to me as a non-Developer. I created my first pull request for that: https://github.com/dovecot/core/pull/90 Would be great to see this merged. Any additional comments are also appreciated. Best, Anton

Hi, writing 1 TB per day sounds not wise. Use syslog-ng or similar to define log destinations to STDOUT / STDIN like multilog and omitting the write to disk part.

Re: [Dovecot] Same filenames on different servers?
Hi, The idea was to have two identical (well, nearly identical) servers with the same software and data on them, and while the first do its job as SMTP and POP3/IMAP4 server, the second server just get copy of first's current state (that is, copy user db and mail spool). In case of something wrong with 1st server I'll just put its IP on second one and will go on. Use Heartbeat and DRBD for replication - all mail is synched between the servers. If first crashes, heartbeat runs second as new server for the users. As dovecot on second is only started if first is down, there are no issues about inconsistencies. best regards, Anton

Re: [Dovecot] Web-Interface for Dovecot-Sieve?
Hi, is there anywhere a web-interface for managing sieve-filters with dovecot? RoundCube in version 0.3 has a managesieve-Plugin, works great - but due to formatting/parsing I would recommend using only RC, and no manual changes. Best regards, Anton
Re: [Dovecot] Web-Interface for Dovecot-Sieve?
I've been considering switching to RC for our webmail... do you know if the RC managesieve plugin and the TBird sieve extension co-exist peacefully? Partly: RoundCube tries parsing the Sieve-Rules in a certain scheme, if parsing fails (e.g. by editing in ThunderBird and not following the scheme) no rules will be displayed in RC. Except that, RC + ManageSieve work great.
Re: [Dovecot] Web-Interface for Dovecot-Sieve?
Hi, Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but IIRC the managesieve interfaces of Roundcube and Thunderbird only allow you to choose between existing sieve scripts that are already available through the managesieve server. They *don't* provide an interface for constructing sieve scripts in the first place-- you still have to write them by hand. sorry, I have to correct you: With RoundCube 0.3 and the managesieve-plugin, you get an interface to click the rules you want to apply: http://yfrog.com/31rcmanagesievep On the other hand, the addon for thunderbird does not more as providing an textarea and documentation about the sieve-syntax.

quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=50M:messages=100

this currently works - you must use the prefix of the namespace as
parameter in the quota-definition.
Re: [Dovecot] Public Folder Quotas
Hi folks,
I suppose you mean something like:
namespace public {
prefix = Public/
..
}
quota = ..
quota2 = maildir:Public quota:ns=Public/
We have this running in exactly that way.
This creates a separate shared quota for all mailboxes in Public/
namespace. I've no idea if it really works, but the code is there. Let
me know if it doesn't. :)
it does work :)
At least, with my tests at the beginning: public quota of 1kb, now a
move of a local mail to the shared namespace fails, RoundCube and
Thunderbird show the correct message. Customers didn't complain after
the dovecot 1.2.6-upgrade, so I assume it's still working.
And, even more: ThunderBird (also with raw IMAP) show the shared quota
as being different than the local quota.
best regards,
Anton

Re: [Dovecot] issues with ACL and Public Namespaces
Hi Timo,
Oh, right, that's because the subscriptions are in the private
namespace. Hmm. I'll try to get this fixed soon, but if you want to get
it working now you could use:
namespace public {
prefix = shared.
location = maildir:/var/mail/vmail/%d/shared:CONTROL=~/shared:INDEX=~/shared
subscriptions = yes
}
Then subscriptions will be handled directly in the public namespace,
therefor all users would have the same folders subscribed, right?
That would cause permission problems, as not all users are allowed to
see every folder.
Although there's also a bug related to that where LSUB % won't list
shared and that breaks some clients. That's fixed in v1.2.6.
Such commands are actually performed and logged in the rawlog (e.g.
20091005-221025-26325.in), but I don't see any responses back to the client.
I'll upgrade to 1.2.6 and check if the problem still occurs.

[Dovecot] imap_quota-error with 1.2.1
Hi, I downloaded the debian-src-package of dovecot 1.2.1 from xi.rename-it.nl, and built the package myself - no errors present. after the upgrade, dovecot complains about an error with imap_quota, startup fails: Restarting IMAP/POP3 mail server: dovecotEdlopen(/usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap/lib10_quota_plugin.so) failed: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap/lib10_quota_plugin.so: undefined symbol: xdr_ext_getquota_args FCouldn't load required plugins Error: imap dump-capability process returned 89 Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf failed! I downgraded back to 1.2.0, which works normally. Any hints? Best regards, Anton

[Dovecot] deliver_log_format not working with 1.2.rc3?
Hi list, just a small issue with deliver_log_format. Although, the parameter is altered in the config and is correctly shown with dovecot -n, deliver uses only its default log_format. r...@terra:~# dovecot -n | grep -e deliver -e ^# # 1.2.rc3: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 i686 Debian 5.0.1 deliver_log_format: %m:%$:%f:%s this is from a recent mail: deliver(antondollma...@aditsystems.de): 2009-04-30 16:13:45 Info: sieve: msgid=20090430141309.gn16...@katherina.student.utwente.nl: stored mail into mailbox 'Dovecot-List' Subject and From are obviously not logged. Any hints? thanks in advance. best regards, Anton
Re: [Dovecot] Unexplainable problem with POP3 quotas
No, we don't. We use dovecot as POP/IMAP server, and let Postfix do the rest. How does Postfix deliver the mails? mailbox_command should be set to use deliver, not maildrop/procmail. I see, but it seems like it is *another* solution rather than a constraint. I just tested the quota-warning, with the dovecot-deliver-example. Exactly the same time as the mail exceeding the quota-percentage is delievered in the account, the quota-warning-message is generated and also delivered. Anyway, we are neither sending an email nor using deliver. What we are trying to do is to generate a message file that is injected into the mailbox. But the script that should do that is never run by dovecot :-( Try the injection using deliver, and use the alternative script from the wiki-page as quota_warning. I just tested it, works great. Also: when using dovecot-deliver, the maildir-indizes are being generated better and faster than with alternative MDAs. Best regards, Anton
Re: [Dovecot] How do I get my mail from fetchmail into dovecot
I have dovecot (with squirrel mail etc.) running without any problems but cannot understand how to get e-mail from a pop server into dovecot. I have fetchmail configured to pick up the mail from the pop3 server but don't understand how to get it from there into my dovecot mbox configure dovecot-deliver as MDA for fetchmail. If you use system users, calling deliver should be sufficient. On virtual users, you probably need to pass the correct recipient to deliver. Anton
Re: [Dovecot] Quota for Shared Folders
Hi Timo, Actually virtual Dovecot quota completely ignores shared/public namespaces currently. The only reason why you seem to notice a combined quota is most likely because of filesystem quota limit exceeding. Or the local quota was exceeded too, so the mail was deferred anyway. So I suppose there needs to be some kind of a per-namespace quota that could be defined.. Maybe something like: quota = maildir:Shared quota:ns=shared/ quota_rule = *:storage=200M Yes, that looked like an easy thing to implement. this works really great, I only needed to figure out the right namespace-setting: it must match the prefix-definition in the namespace, so with prefix = shared. (courier-migration) it has to be ns=shared.. The quotadict also reports diskusage really fast to the database, with the right amounts for the shared quotas. imap_quota shows shared quotas too, thunderbird displays a nice percentage-graph with different local and shared-values. thanks for the really fast response and implementation! best regards, Anton
[Dovecot] Quota for Shared Folders
Good morning list, first of all: dovecot works really great, the performance is overwhelming (especially compared to courier), the configuration flexible as hell, it is good documented - I love this software. But as things get complicated, I think I need some additional help. I'm using dovecot to replace the currently used courier-mailserver in a shared hosting environment based on the control panel Confixx. Confixx uses per default filesystem-users, giving each mailuser a filesystem-quota, mails are stored in ~/Maildir/. The imap-logins are all in the form of webxpy, being webx the customer (prefix 'web', and a increasing number), and py the number of the pop account. Because of the filesystem-quota we moved the indexes to another partition. This basic setup with dovecot works great, with auth directly against the confixx-database etc, imap_quota-plugin, quota-plugin working as expected. We now want to implement shared folders for each customer: all mailaccounts of a customer should be able to subscribe to per-customer shared folders in a specified maildir, thus I re-mapped the usernames with a new user_query (and password_query) to the format of web...@webx - being webx the virtual domain and webxpy the mailaccount, but still using webxpy as the imap-login (no need for customers to change the login). This also works, we even can control with ACL-vfiles the permissions of specified users, to enable or disable specific folders. The shared folders are specified as a new public namespace and the domain is part of the storage-path (see configuration at the end of this mail). To allow easier quota-management (no need to create a new system-user), the quota of the shared folders is maildir-based, with a mysql-quota-dictionary (later, all accounts will be migrated to a virtual-user-mailstorage, with only maildir-quota and no fs-quotas). But when things come to the shared quota, I currently don't know how to solve the wishes of the customer: The current solution for shared folders (at the customer's local site) is based on mdaemon, every shared folder (of a customer, not a single mail-account) has a quota assigned. This quota cannot be exceeded by the users, no more mails can be saved into the shared folders if used space exceeds the hard quota-value. As my tests have shown, dovecot uses a different approach to the quota-issue: users can always move their mails from local folders to the shared namespace, regardless of the shared quota. The quota itself is only checked when receiving new mails, where the combined quota (local + shared) may not be exceeded. If it is, the mail is not delivered to the mailbox. Our quota-config is this: quota_rule: *:storage=50M:messages=1000 quota_rule2: Trash:storage=50M:messages=100 quota_rule3: shared*:storage=100M:messages=1000 (also being altered by user_query, but the scheme is the same) As of dovecot-wiki, this means: Users can save 50M + 50M + 100M of mails in all specified Folders, so the storage-value for the shared*-folders works additionally to the *-storage-value. Different from this, we want the following to happen: If the customer exceeds the shared folders-quota, his mail-users may not move mails from INBOX to shared, this move-operation should fail with a reasonable error-message. If the local quota of a mail user is exceeded, new mails should be rejected/delayed, regardless of the shared quota-value (e.g., shared quota exceeded, but no local mails [new mail-account], mails should be delivered to INBOX). Sieve-filters are not a problem, we do not allow user-specific sieve-rules (managesieve is disabled). Hopefully, I could explain my issues to you. Our current dovecot-configuration is attached to this mail, any help would be gladly appreciated. If additional configuration-values/information is needed, I'll happily provide them, if possible. best regards, Anton Dollmaier # 1.1.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 i686 Debian 5.0.1 log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imap imaps pop3s pop3 listen: *, [::] ssl_cert_file: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.pem disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3-login mail_max_userip_connections(default): 25 mail_max_userip_connections(imap): 25 mail_max_userip_connections(pop3): 10 first_valid_uid: 249 mail_access_groups: poponly mail_privileged_group: poponly mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=~/index:CONTROL=~/control mail_debug: yes mail_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugins(default): quota imap_quota acl mail_plugins(imap): quota imap_quota acl mail_plugins(pop3): quota acl
