userdb lookup: user flindner doesn't exist
flindner is my linux system user. There are virtual user, e.g
In your log excerpt I've seen '/home/flindner/…', so I thought there
could be the user flindner.
# doveadm user s...@xgm.de
userdb: s...@xgm.de
home : /home/flindner/Mail/spam
uid : 1001
gid : 1001
/home/flindner/Mail/spam is the home and maildir of virtual user.
That could cause several problems. For example that problem you've
reported. The simplest solution would be setting
mail_location=~maildir:~/Maildir in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf.
With this configuration Dovecot will use
/home/flindner/Mail/spam/Maildir as mail location for user s...@xgm.de.
My mail system is built like that:
postfix delivers all mail of a domain to maildrop using a system user
which have this domain assigned. maildrop does the final delivery. There
is no 1:1 mapping of mail adresses to maildirs.
postfix @xgm.de - maildrop flindner - maildrop - maildir - dovecot
IMAP this should become:
postfix @xgm.de - maildrop flindner - maildrop - dovecot-lda -
maildir - dovecot IMAP
so that I can also use sieve for filtering.
When using Sieve it's also strongly recommended to have $home != $mail.
With the settings from above you could use 'default' settings for Sieve,
e.g.:
# 15-lda.conf
protocol lda {
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve
}
# 20-lmtp.conf
protocol lmtp {
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve
}
# 90-sieve.conf
plugin {
recipient_delimiter = +
sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve
sieve_dir = ~/sieve
}
Then the file /home/flindner/Mail/spam/.dovecot.sieve would contain the
Sieve rules for user s...@xgm.de.

[Dovecot] Calling dovecot-lda from maildrop/shell
Hello, I want to make final delivery for some of my mailboxes using dovecot-lda, since I'm interested in using sieve. My usual MDA which is called from postfix is and will be maildrop. First try was to call dovecot-lda from command line: /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d s...@xgm.de testmail which gave return code 75 (EX_TEMPFAIL) and logged: dovecot: auth-worker(3533): mysql(localhost): Connected to database system dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=s...@xgm.de, method=PLAIN, rip=::1, lip=::1, mpid=3535, secured, session=jwXWP3HrwgAB dovecot: imap(s...@xgm.de): Disconnected: Logged out in=91 out=830 dovecot: lda(s...@xgm.de): Error: user s...@xgm.de: Initialization failed: Namespace '': Mail storage autodetection failed with home=/home/flindner/Mail/spam dovecot: lda(s...@xgm.de): Fatal: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information. My userdb/password is like that home == maildir == /home/flindner/Mail/spam (without prefixed maildir:). It works fine for dovecot-imap, it detects that spam is a maildir. I've also tried prefixing home and or maildir with maildir: or calling: HOME=maildir:~/Mail/spam /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-lda testmail which gave: dovecot: lda: Error: user flindner: Relative home directory paths not supported: maildir:/home/flindner/Mail/spam dovecot: lda: Fatal: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information. What is the problem with the LDA here? Thanks, Florian
