Hi,
can confirm this bug with stretch now being stable.
This should be fixed fast as it results in brute-force protection for
Dovecot being inactive.
Workaround is to add the correct logpath into jail.local:
logpath = /var/log/mail.log
(I wouldn't use auth.log, not every fail is logged there.)
Package: fail2ban
Version: 0.9.6-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
activating the dovecot jail I didn't see any bans. I then checked
which file the auth info is written to, and which is checked.
The auth failed messages of dovecot are going into auth.log and
not into mail.warn, thus fail2ban
2 matches
