[Dovecot] PATCH missing Return-Path in message (was Re: SEGV with Dovecot v1.0.0 Deliver and cmusieve v1.0.1 and vacation)
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 On Thu, 26 Apr 2007, Steffen Kaiser wrote: Hello, after digging in the CMU Sieve lib sources, I found where the problem stems from. Somehow (I don't know why) in dovecot-sieve-1.0.1/src/libsieve/script.c:671 /* first, let's figure out if we should respond to this */ ret = makehash(hash, a-u.vac.send.addr, a-u.vac.send.msg); u.vac.send.addr is NULL. Although, in dovecot-sieve-1.0.1/src/libsieve/bc_eval.c:256 I get the impression that this error handled by silently skipping vacation, if no return-path is available. It didn't happened for me. BTW: I want to have those replys ;-) The reason is that by default sendmail does not pass forth Return-Path to the MDA and Dovecot deliver does not use the -f option for this reason. The attached patch changes this by leting deliver_get_return_address() return any information available: str = mail_get_first_header(mail, Return-Path); if(!str) str = envelope_sender != DEFAULT_ENVELOPE_SENDER ? envelope_sender /* -f option */ : mail_get_first_header(mail, From); /* That's not the most correct one, but alas */ The problem still exists, if neither of the three information is available, but, well ... . Now, vacation is working.

[Dovecot] CMU Sieve pluigin missing proper charset support
Hello, After testing the Sieve plugin for the LDA, I have noticed that it does not handle charset issues properly. IETF draft says: 4.3. Subject and From Parameters The :subject parameter specifies a subject line to attach to any vacation response that is generated. UTF-8 characters can be used in the string argument; implementations MUST convert the string to [RFC2047] encoded words if and only if non-ASCII characters are present. Implementations MUST generate an appropriate default subject line as specified below if no :subject parameter is specified. (see http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sieve-vacation-07) The problem is that the dovecot plugin does not convert the string to RFC2047 encoded words, it treats it literally and thus sends malformed (from RFC's point of view) message - with improper Subject field encoding. Any chances of getting that fixed? greetings, -- Jan Srzednicki [EMAIL PROTECTED]
