On my postfix/dovecot system I'm currently forwarding mails that need piping to a qmail server, since thats the only way to do it easily on a per user basis. It seems irrational that dovecot itself doesnt support this considering dovecot being much ahead of qmail in every other aspect. By the way I use it for much the same tasks as you do; for spam reporting but also for certain e-mails that need be put into another database besides its mailbox. Regards, Mikkel

The assert you first mentioned happens if there's broken data in dovecot.index.log file. v1.1 handles this by logging an error instead of crashing. But broken data should never be written to dovecot.index.log in the first place. The glibc free() error then is a pretty serious problem. It just should never happen no matter what you do. The backtrace shows that it's happening on commit path when changing message flags. There's no way there's a bug in there, so either the heap was corrupted earlier by another code path, or there's something wrong with the server's memory. If it's heap corruption it's probably in some rarely run error handling path, in which case it would help to see what errors were logged by the same process before that.

I downloaded it when you first mentioned it, but looks like I never got
around to actually looking at it. Yes, something like this would be
nice..
One thing at least that should be changed is to configure it using
virtual mailbox names instead of full mailbox paths. This isn't really
possible with v1.0, but v1.1 should make it pretty easy.
A few things about the code:
save_dest_mail = mail_alloc(ctx->transaction,
MAIL_FETCH_PHYSICAL_SIZE, NULL);
Quota plugin wanted to know the message's physical size, but your plugin
doesn't need it. So you could just use 0 instead of
MAIL_FETCH_PHYSICAL_SIZE.
I think write() can return partially written data if the other side
isn't reading it fast enough. Using write_full() instead would anyway be
better/safer.
Do you really need to wait for the executed process to finish? Since
this is the only plugin currently creating child processes, I'd setup a
SIGCHLD handler and waitpid() there to get rid of the zombie:
lib_signals_set_handler(SIGCHLD, TRUE, chld_handler, NULL);
Multiple commands are now processed sequentially. I don't know if
there's real need for multiple commands, but it would be faster to read
the message input just once and send it to all pipes in parallel.
"return 0 * WEXITSTATUS(status);" returns always 0 :)
I'd also leave stderr as-is for the child process so it could log
errors, and for handling syscall failures use:
i_fatal("dup2() failed: %m");

I am in the process of moving my mailboxes from an overloaded cyrus-box to a new dovecot installation.

Hi Nicolas-
I don't remember seeing either of your earlier messages (although I
admit to not always being able to closely follow the list despite
being a subscriber), but I do like your plugin. I haven't had a chance
to install and try it, but I'm adding it to my list of things to do.
I've struggled to come up with an easy-to-use solution for manual
classification of messages for end users, and ultimately sort of
pushed it aside, but this seems like an elegant and easy-to-use
solution.
Could you maybe explain how the configuration works in a little more
detail? For some reason I'm having a bit of trouble wrapping my head
around how this works:
(...)
namespace private {
separator = .
location = maildir:/var/mail/%u
inbox = yes
hidden = no
}
namespace public {
separator = .
prefix = learn.
location = maildir:/var/learn/%u
inbox = no
hidden = no
}
(...)
plugin {
(...)
pipe = /var/learn/%u/.spam:spamc -d some.host -L spam
pipe2 = /var/learn/%u/.ham:spamc -d some.host -L ham
(...)
}
Thanks,
Ben
[Dovecot] exim/kmail vs. dovecot

It's possible to create such section, but it doesn't do what you want.

Hmm. There's no easy way with LDAP. You'd need to either run a separate
Dovecot installation with a different config file, or alternatively have
separate accounts in LDAP for SMTP and non-SMTP (where only non-SMTP has
allow_nets).
In the configuration file there is a section 'auth default { }'. Is it

Dovecot is creating the directory hierarchie per user itself, for new users. In this case /var/dovecot is a tmp-like directory with 1777 permissions. If you pre-create the directory per user, the standard permissions apply. BTW: The direcotory is variable-expanded, http://wiki.dovecot.org/Variables, see the %u in the sample.

Re: [Dovecot] Imap and quota problem
Hi, El Wednesday 05 December 2007 12:06:16 Najib Abi Fadel escribió: > Are indexes temporary files ? Should i migrate > anything in my existing setup ! If you are using an Imap only setup, I think that you have no need to migrate anything; all the needed files will be recreated when needed in the new location. But this may cause a little overhead on the system, so if your system is big, migrating the files may help. If you are using also POP3, and if some users use the "leave messages on server" thing, you need to migrate the dovecot-uidlist files, or they will download all their messages again. > Nad finally should i create a directory for every user > in /var/dovecot/ ? Yes, and they should be owned by the users. Here you have an example from my setup: $ find /var/dovecot/lgstosej/ /var/dovecot/lgstosej/ /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/.imap.index /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/.imap.index.data /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/.customflags /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/dovecot.index.log.2 /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/dovecot.index.log /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/dovecot-uidlist /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/.imap.index.tree /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/dovecot.index /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/dovecot.index.cache /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/dovecot-keywords /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.INBOX/.imap.index.log /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.sent-mail /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.sent-mail/dovecot.index.log /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.sent-mail/dovecot.index /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.sent-mail/dovecot.index.cache /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.sent-mail/dovecot-uidlist /var/dovecot/lgstosej/dovecot-uidlist /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.customflags /var/dovecot/lgstosej/subscriptions /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/dovecot.index.log /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/.imap.index /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/dovecot.index /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/dovecot.index.cache /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/dovecot-uidlist /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/dovecot-keywords /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/.imap.index.data /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/.customflags /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/.imap.index.tree /var/dovecot/lgstosej/.Trash/.imap.index.log HTH -- Joseba Torre.

Re: [Dovecot] Imap and quota problem
Hi, you should put indexes in a filesystem without quotas. Something like: mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/var/dovecot/%u:CONTROL=/var/dovecot/%u where /var/dovecot/ doesn't use quotas.
