nfs_flush_chown_uid errors over NFS
Hello all, We use an older version of dovecot 2.0.19 on Ubuntu 12.04 using an NFS share, also a linux box. Now we want to migrate the storage to a FreeBSD server and later on the mailservers them self. In the firsts test all looks fine, but we do see some errors some times. Error: nfs_flush_chown_uid: chown(/var/mail/virtual/domain.com/user/Maildir) failed: Invalid argument This does not happen all the time but sometimes it shows up. I can read all the mail using an mailclient and the uid shows the user vmail:vmail. Is this cosmetic or is there something wrong? Thanks for your time Regards johan

Regards, spyros "I merely function as a channel that filters music through the chaos of noise" - Vangelis A solution you could try is add a new server to the mix. Leave the OS on the DL360 and put the mail data on a second machine. Then use NFS to mount the new data store. If you use a ZFS solution, expanding your data store is a no brainer. 146 GB drives are expensive, for 40 users SATA drives can do the job without any problem. gr Johan Hendriks
Re: [Dovecot] BestPractice to migrate imap mailbox from one machine to another
Tobias Hachmer schreef: Hi list, currently I use dovecot v1.2.15 with maildir++ mailboxes. (Debian Squeeze) I want to set up a different server with dovecot v2, also maildir++ mailboxes. (also Debian Squeeze) What is the best way to copy the existing mailboxes from the older machine running dovecot v1.2.15 to the new naked machine? Greetz, Tobias I did the same thing, with no know issues so far. My old server was running dovecot 1.2.x and i coppied the whole maildir structure to the other machine. Then started Dovecot 2.x and all was fine. Should be the same as instlling 2.0 over the old 1.2.x version, then it uses the old maildir also. Well test it i would say. Just do the copy, and try if everything works. then do it for a final migration. Gr Johan Hendriks

Thanks for your samples, they would help me so much!
My config is commented because i didn't know how to properly configure

can you show me your dovecot-mysql.conf as well ? it should be final
peace of puzzle for me.
i'm interested in this two almost different user_query lines:
user_query = SELECT concat('/home/vmail/', maildir) as home,
concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as mail, 1001 AS uid, 12 AS
gid, concat('maildir:storage=', quota) AS quota FROM mailbox WHERE
username = '%u' AND active = '1'
user_query = SELECT maildir, 1001 AS uid, 1001 AS gid,
CONCAT('dict:storage=',floor(quota/1000),' proxy::quota') as quota
FROM mailbox WHERE username = '%u' AND active='1'
first one provided from dovecot wiki and second one from postfixadmin
docs regarding dovecot configuration.
may i use user_query like this? :
user_query = SELECT concat('/home/vmail/', maildir) as home,
concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as mail, 1001 AS uid, 12 AS
gid, CONCAT('dict:storage=',floor(quota/1000),' proxy::quota') AS
quota FROM mailbox WHERE
username = '%u' AND active = '1'
seems like this line doing some nice customization showing quota in
kilobytes and not in bytes. or if someone could explain what does this
string means.
also what does this line means ?:
concat('maildir:/home/vmail/', maildir) as mail
string about home i understood dovecot reads users home dir from this line.
And i dont understand if why should i indicate in 10-mail.conf next string:
mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%u
If it is overided by user_query from mysql?
Also what is meaning of quota(2) table. does dovecot reading
configuration from there or just stores usage information ?
Also what does this string mean?: pattern = priv/quota/messages
what privileges those who reads the, or where are they indicated ?
Thanks in advance.

There is enougth space on disk. and I am not using quota plugin on lmtp
What about filesystem quota?
I remember there were similar issues in the past, due to the fact that

When you bring the master back up after repairing the cause of the failure, does it automatically and correctly resume mirroring of the HAST device so it obtains the new emails that were saved to the slave while it was offline? How do you then put the master back into service and make the slave offline again? The servers work with an virtual ip. Carp does this, i use it for the firewalls on our location. Server 1 has ip adres 192.168.1.1, server 2 gets 192.168.1.2, and the virtual addres is 192.168.1.3 The clients connect to the virtual address 192.168.1.3, and contact the machine wich is master at that moment. I do not know how the rebuild goes with hast, if the master provider goes down, like i said, i need to try and test it. Maybe an question on the freebsd-fs mailing list will answer this.

I want to set up a hot backup dovecot in a VM, aside the physical server, so I am very interested in the "best practise" to do so ... There isn't one. If there was Timo would have pointed you to the wiki. Doing server fail over is inherently problematic for a large number of reasons. The easiest way to implement it is to literally turn on the backup server (power on) when the primary fails. The backup comes up with the same hostname and IP address as the primary and mounts the same physical storage. The storage must be either a SAN LUN, NFS directories, or a local disk that has been mirrored over the network during normal operations. But, you can't have the same hostname and IP if the machine is running allowing the mirroring to take place. Thus, for a "standby" server, it must be powered off and take ownership of the storage when powered on. You _can_ do realtime mirroring to the standby while it's running, but then you have some really complex issues to deal with as far as hostname and IP assignments when the primary host dies and you have to take over the name and IP on the spare server. This can be done with a reboot and using alternate config files, and might actually work better in a virtual environment than with a physical machine as VM guests tend to boot faster than physical hosts due to things like long pauses caused by hardware BIOS routines. The key to all of the above is proper identification of primary host failure. The biggest problem with this setup is the "two brains" issue. There are a number of network scenarios that can cause your backup server or monitoring software to think the primary host is offline when it's really not. The secondary thus comes up, and now you have two hosts of the same name and IP address on the network. This situation can cause a number of serious problems IMO, the best way to do high availability is to use an active/active cluster of any number of nodes you see fit to meet your performance and reliability needs. All hosts are live all the time and share he load. When one goes down client performance may simply drops a bit, but that's about the extent of the downside. It's inherently more straight forward to setup than the previous scenario, especially if you're using NFS storage. In this case, you'd build two identical Dovecot servers and have each mount the same NFS mail directory. Read the list archives for ways to mitigate the index file issue. Timo wrote a new director specifically to meet this need. Two other options for the shared storage are a fiber channel or iSCSI SAN, or using DRBD to mirror disks (or logical devices--RAID) over the network. Both of these solutions require using a cluster filesystem such as GFS2. These can be quite a bit more difficult to setup and get working properly than the NFS method, especially for less experienced sysadmins. They can also be more difficult to troubleshoot, especially for sysadmins lacking sufficient knowledge or aptitude with regard to storage hardware and low level Linux device drivers. Hope this helps you a bit. You probably won't find a "how to" document that spoon feeds you the steps for an exact build/setup of this. If you choose the DRBD route you might be able to get Eric to write you up a step-by-step of how he did his two node DRBD Dovecot cluster. Maybe he's already written one. :) Hello, i am working primarly with FreeBSD, and the latest release has a service called HAST. See it as a mirrored disk over the network.

[Dovecot] [OT] dovecot appliance
Hello all. I am reading the mailinglist for a long time now, and there was a thread i believe called webgui or something. In this thread there was a company i believe german, that was working on a dovecot appliance with a web based gui to administrate a dovecot mail server. The problem is i did not save the URL of that company. Does anyone know which company make the appliance. Or does anyone knows a good webbased tool for dovecot. The reason is that in a windows environment, with only a few FreeBSD machine's , my collega's get frustrated if they can not use a mouse. They even want a mouse on there smartphone's :D I am doing the administration of the mail server, but when i am not there, it would be nice if they can do things them selves. thanks for your time. regards, Johan Hendriks
[Dovecot] shared folders general question
Hello all. Thanks to the patience off Timo i finally got my shared folders working. I have one more question. Is it possible if you share the inbox, that all subfolders will be visable to. I can not see the subfolders of the shared inbox. This is not very useful if the user which shares his inbox, has sieve rules active that stores e-mail directly into subfolders. Thanks regards, Johan

It works with the following settings.
mail_location = maildir:/usr/local/virtual/%d/%n/
namespace {
hidden = no
inbox = yes
list = yes
location =
prefix =
separator = /
subscriptions = yes
type = private
}
namespace {
inbox = no
list = children
location =
maildir:/usr/local/virtual/%%d/%%n:INDEX=/usr/local/virtual/%d/%n/shared/%%u
prefix = shared/%%d/%%n/
separator = /
subscriptions = no
type = shared
}
I have read the the wiki and tried to use the home folder.
I created a dir /usr/home/virtual/ gave it the right permissions.
But the wiki is not very clear (for me ) where i must alter my config
to use the home dir.
In my understanding , i must set the home dir by doing the following.
mail_location = maildir: home=/usr/home/virtual/%d/%n/
mail=/usr/local/virtual/%d/%n
But the i get a few errors

Thank you very much it works.
Finally :D
I knew i missed something, and i tried a lot of options, but always
leave that shared behind %%n
the INDEX=/shared/%%n where does this point to?
Must i use INDEX=/shared/%%d/%%u or INDEX=/shared/%%u/%%n
What is a better value.
And thanks again.

[Dovecot] Shared folders, please help.!
Hello all,
First of all sorry for this, it has been discussed many times, but i can
not make it work.
I tried for a long time now.
I do something wrong, but i do not know what.
First of all, i have virtual users, with virtual domains.
Mail is stored in /usr/local/virtual/domain name/user
So if my domain is domain.com and my e-mail address is jo...@domain.com
the directory is
/usr/local/virtual/domain.com/johan
i followed the wiki, and my configuration looks like the following.

That is my config file.
My dovecot-dict-acl-sql.conf looks like the following
connect = host=localhost dbname=postfix user=postfix password=password
map {
pattern = shared/shared-boxes/$to/$from
table = user_shares
value_field = dummy
fields {
from_user = $from
to_user = $to
}
}
That is slightly different than the wiki says, if i use that , it gives
me an error.
the pattern on the wiki looks like this
pattern = shared/shared-boxes/users/$to/$from
if i login as user johan and set ACL on my INBOX i do it this way.
i telnet to the server and issue the following
beasty dovecot # telnet 192.168.50.200 143

Re: [Dovecot] Upgrade question from 1.1 to 1.2
Wouter van der Schagt schreef:
If you find out anything, add it to the wiki..
Upgrade went relatively smooth. I did get 2 error messages though in
the errorlog.
Error: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf line
18: Unknown setting: ssl_disable
Error: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf line
81: Unknown setting: login_greeting_capability
Are these settings deprecated? and if so, what supersedes them?
Commenting them out for now did the trick.
Sincerely,
- Wouter van der Schagt
Did you read this page ?
http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.2
there is a list with the changes.
To make you life a little easier here they are:
Settings:
*
Renamed ssl_disable=yes to ssl=no.
*
Renamed auth_ntlm_use_winbind to auth_use_winbind, which also
determines if GSS-SPNEGO is handled by GSSAPI or winbind.
*
Removed login_greeting_capability. The capabilities are now always
sent (Lemonade requires this and it's not that much extra traffic).
*
Removed auth_worker_max_request_count. It was useful only with
PAM, so it can now be specified in
passdb pam { args = max_requests=n } . The default is 100.
*
Removed umask. It wasn't really used anywhere anymore.

Maybe by making the alias a mailbox itself and give other users acces or are there other options. I understand that, if you're using Maildir, Dovecot deliver can be smart and lay down a single file, and hardlink or symlink it to each folder, thus having one physical copy for N users. The documentation on dovecot's LDA mentions the -p option which will hard-link when using maildir, if possible, specifically for this case. http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA Also i have very lame and lazy users. Don't we all, mate? :) They refuse to clean thrash cans (i asked about that earlier,and got that tackled through the expire plugin.),also the do not remove old mail not even reading it. So is there also a option to remove mail that is not been opened, and is older than xx days or weeks. There's expire (http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Expire) though I'm personally in favor of Quotas -- even if you only go as far as making users request an expanded quota when they reach their limit, it makes them realise how much they're using, AND makes it a chore... Another thing to look into is the zlib plugin. If you're using mbox, this will allow you to use compressed, read-only folders. If you're using Maildir, it allows you to compress individual messages. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Zlib Someone recently posted a tool to implement something close to the process described at the bottom of that page. -- Curtis Maloney Thanks for the pointer, but the -p option is not recommended. the Zlib option might be a good solution. And maybe we just need to set the quota and let the users deal with it! 6 Gb + mail in one year is just to much to keep laying around in your mailbox. thanks for your time. -- ___ *Johan Hendriks* *Schavemaker Transport* Tel: +31 (0)251 229098 Fax: +31 (0)251 212016 email: j.hendr...@schavemaker.com <mailto:j.hendr...@schavemaker.com> web: http://www.schavemaker.com ___

Below is used conf file $ dovecot -n # 1.0.13: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot-info.log protocols: imap ssl_disable: yes disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir dotlock_use_excl: yes maildir_copy_with_hardlinks: yes mail_plugins: antispam imap_client_workarounds: delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh tb-extra-mailbox-sep auth default: verbose: yes passdb: driver: checkpassword args: /var/MailRoot/bin/dovecot_xmail userdb: driver: static args: uid=vxmail gid=vxmail home=/var/MailRoot/domains/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes socket: type: listen master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 384 user: vxmail plugin: antispam_signature: X-DSPAM-Signature antispam_trash: Trash antispam_spam: SPAM antispam_dspam_binary: /usr/local/bin/dspam antispam_dspam_args: --user;%u I googled and found similar post at http://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg01793.html, http://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg01798.html and http://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg01831.html but answers there don't meet my case. I don't use sql backend. And startup script doesn't delete /var/run/dovecot/ directory after Dovecot is started. After booting when error still there I have in this directory: $ ls /var/run/dovecot auth-master dict-server login master.pid If restart dovecot (working OK): $ ls /var/run/dovecot auth-master auth-worker.960 dict-server login master.pid As we see dovecot works when there appears a file named auth-worker.960 (the number 960 changes each time it restarted). Please help me to fix this. Thanks in advance. Dien Phan What is happening i think is that dovecot is trying to start before Xmail, and then there is no autentication backend yet. look in the dovecot startup file /usr/loval/etc/rc.d/dovecot and add xmail (or however it is named in the startup sequense) to the REQUIRE option # PROVIDE: dovecot # REQUIRE: LOGIN ntpdate xmail # KEYWORD: shutdown

Are you sure about the last 'permit'. You are potentially making
yourself an open relay. I would suggest 'reject' as the correct action.
You might want to inquire on the Postfix forum for more info.

Thanks after the merge i started to test a lot of things because
outlook2003 did not work so i added that one to try out,
Left that one in, it is out now
thanks guys for the good help

Re: [Dovecot] outlook2003 fails sasl authentication
Thank you so much that was it!
I just migrated from one server to another and that line did not made it
in the new dovecot.conf file.
Well i need to use diff more.
Thanks again

Hi!
I have a similar configuration - and run into the same problem before
two weeks.
As I remember I expanded the following line in dovecot.conf:
-->
mechanisms = plain login
<--
It works for me and hopefully it is the correct solution (even if I am
no dovecot-expert).
Kind regards,
Jens

It all runs good.
I run into trouble as where outlook 2003 fails to authenticate when

I have thunderbird outlook2007 and 2003 clients.
The tunderbird and 2007 clients are working OK, the outlook2003

In the postfix log i see it is not initiating sasl

Am i doing something wrong?
I guess if it is not configured right outlook 2007 and thunderbird
will fail also!
