Re: submission_add_received_header option?
Hi! Unfortunately you are looking at Dovecot 3.0 (2.4 CE) settings. Please see https://doc.dovecot.org/settings/core/ for 2.3 settings. Aki Sorry, I seem to have missed that. I hope this isn't a silly question, but I'm wondering what the difference between 'regular' Dovecot and the 'CE'/3.0 edition is? I can't seem to find much information on this. Why are there different versions? PS: I'm aware of the arguments regarding privacy/RFCs with regards to mail headers. This is just a small mail server for personal use though.

Re: submission_add_received_header option?
For the record, you should never 'hide' the connecting IP, that information is very valuable for all abuse handling, and so you can quickly see when someone reports spam from your network, who is abusing it.. the whole privacy vs security debates aside please.. And it also allows other spam protections to better act on it, eg if the IP is on a DROP rbl, or an auth RBL like RATS-AUTH, etc.. A lot of information can be gathered on the actor behind BEC if the authenticating IP is part of that data.. And given that much of the world uses a NAT connection, it's not like the IP is really PPI.. There is a lot more PPI being gathered from other parts of the email.

submission_add_received_header option?

It's 2024! You've awakened a thread from 2022 without explanations :)
What is it that you're trying to achieve?

Hi,
Security changes to Exim have invalidated certain suggested configurations
in the Dovecot wiki.
As I do not have a Dovecot installation to test, I am not going to write
any updates there. It would be good if someone would test these
suggestions
and then make updates as needed.
1) The use of $local_part and $domain in commands run by the "pipe"
transport will be disallowed in the upcoming Exim release.
These are currently noted as optional, with the "-m" flag to
dovecot-lda. They should be replaced with validated (untainted)
versions, commonly $local_part_data and $domain_data, developed via
one of the several de-taint methods documented for Exim.
The same applies to $original_local_part and $original_domain.
2) The use of $sender_address will likewise be disallowed. This
and the "-f" flag can be dropped from the dovecot-lda command line,
and the specification of a null "message_prefix" option removed.
The defaults for a pipe transport will then prefix the message
with a suitable Mbox "From " header line, which dovecot-lda is
documented to extract the sender from.
Both of these suggestions are back-compatible to the current 4.95
release of Exim, and will be required with the 4.96 release.BEGIN:VCARD
