[Dovecot] Dovecot and ACL
Hello,
I try to get per-mailbox-ACLs on dovecot.
So, I've modded dovecot.conf:
protocol imap {
mail_plugins = acl
}
and
plugin {
acl = vfile
}
When I telnet to dovecot an try the command capability there is
nothing about acl.
I need acl for open-xchange so I can share Mailboxes over the
webinterface.
Do I have to create the acl-file manually or does dovecot this automaticly?

Re: [Dovecot] Wrong credential caching

[Dovecot] Sieve vacation with russian subject
Hello list,
I have noticed that sieve vacation action breaks some non-english letters in
the subject.
I tested with russian language, if subject contains letters from specific
diapason russian alphabet, the message received with unreadable subject, but
text in the body with the same letters looks ok.
Here is example of full subject header, it contains russian alphabet:
Subject: абвгде�?жзийклмноп�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?�?
Maybe this headers will be usefull:
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
.dovecot.sieve file looks correct, here is it:
require [vacation];

I don't know whether dovecot-sieve is supposed to do the conversion
automatically, but it is sure that an RFC822 header MUST be in US-
ASCII (so as to be 7bit-clean).
The required encodings are described in:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2047.txt
For example, a subject header with the french word Résistance could
be encoded as:
Subject: =?iso-8859-1?Q?R=E9sistance?=
Could you try by inserting the encoded subject line directly in the
config file and see what gives?
On the other hand, perhaps does sieve provide the needed tools itself;
someone?

Re: [Dovecot] expire plugin with 1.2 cronjob undefined symbol: capability_string
Thanks, that's it!
I've added it to the dovecot wiki:
http://wiki.dovecot.org/Plugins/Expire
By the way:
You are using:
#!/bin/bash
MAIL_PLUGINS=${mail_plugins//imap_quota/}
/usr/lib/dovecot/expire-tool $1
While mail_plugins in not defined and therefore empty it's the same
like:
#!/bin/bash
MAIL_PLUGINS=
/usr/lib/dovecot/expire-tool $1
so you are not removing just imap_quota but your are removing _all_
plugins. Just for correctness :-)

Thanks everyone for replies.
[Dovecot] Optimal quota method for SQL
Hi,
I just installed 1.2.0 and I'm gonna set up some quota on my vitual users.
I' ve got dovecot set up as LDA, and currently I'm using the dict-mysql
method described for 1.2.0, but it's not really working at all.
Am I correct in assuming that with this method I can define the quota
limit in my dict (sql field)?
This is my current config:
dict {
quotadict = mysql:/etc/dovecot-dict-sql.conf
}
plugin {
quota = dict:user::proxy::quotadict
quota_rule = *:storage=0:messages=0
}
protocol lda {
mail_plugins = quota
.
}
I want quota to be disabled unless otherwise specified in my SQL database.

Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot and ACL
Daniel,
Dovecot v1.0 and v1.1 supports administrator-configured ACL files.
v1.2+ supports also IMAP ACL extension which allows users to change ACLs
themselves.
http://wiki.dovecot.org/ACL
I think to share mailboxes in OPen-Xchange, you will need Version 1.2
(IMap ACL extension)
An Alternate way using Soft Links:

acl = vfile

When I telnet to dovecot an try the command capability there is
nothing about acl.
I need acl for open-xchange so I can share Mailboxes over the
webinterface.
Do I have to create the acl-file manually or does dovecot this
automaticly?

Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot-1.1.15 panics
Either there's a bit stranger bug
It appears to be related to the readdir()-returns-EINVAL issue.
Fixing that stopped the assertion from failing.
There is still lots of noise in the log though. The attached perl
script just sends and retrieves mail over and over:
$ ./dere.pl --iterations 1000 --sendfor 3 --server mailhost.my.domain
--sender a...@b.c --username user1 --password test
[...]
Pid 24307 iteration 74 at Wed Jul 8 08:17:38 2009
Sent 738 message(s)
INBOX contains 698 message(s)
Pid 24307 iteration 75 at Wed Jul 8 08:17:48 2009
Sent 626 message(s)
INBOX contains 725 message(s)
When run against a Mac OS X server with dovecot-1.1.16 and dovecot's
deliver via postfix, there are lots of errors and warnings. See the
attached log. Are these normal?
Thanks.

STOPPING BY WOODS ON A SNOWY EVENING
ROBERT FROST
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Am I correct in assuming that with this method I can define the quota

Quota limits are defined in quota_rule setting. You can have your
userdb override the global one.
plugin {
quota = dict:user::proxy::quotadict
quota_rule = *:storage=0:messages=0

Looks ok. This should track quota, but have any limits for it. For
users that need quota just override the quota_rule.
I want quota to be disabled unless otherwise specified in my SQL

I suppose you're using userdb sql?

[Dovecot] getting Apple Mail and dovecot/IMAP to co-operate
Hi. I've been fighting a losing battle to get Apple Mail and dovecot to play nice. When dovecot is told to use mbox-style mailboxes, it's not possible to create child mailboxes. Apple Mail whines The IMAP command “CREATE” failed with server error: Mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes.. I've looked through the documentation, the wiki and searched the mail archives without finding a solution. Can anyone help? I've tried (and failed) to get a hybrid maildir/mbox setup to work like that shown on http://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces. When that gets plugged into dovecot.conf, Apple Mail blocks, with the Activity window saying waiting for login or something like that, even though a valid imaps connection and login has been established. There's nothing getting logged by dovecote for both of these problems, even when syslog is turned all the way to debug priority.

Thanks for the quick response Timo. Sadly, your suggestion doesn't
look as if it'll work because there are many non-empty parent
mailboxes that have to get shifted to the new dovecot server. ie There
are messages in sub as well as sub/box: too many to move to sub/
whatever. And there are many of these sorts of folders too. Some
mailboxes are even more deeply nested with subfolders: sub/box1/box2
where sub/box1 holds messages. Looks like an all-mbox solution isn't
going to be viable at all. Oh well.

I don't really know about that. What kind of a namespace configuration

Here's the last one I tried before hitting a dead end. There were
various combinations of settings for the prefix, hidden and list
variables that were tried unsuccessfully before that.
###namespace private {
### separator = /
### #prefix = #mbox/
### location = mbox:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
### inbox = yes

Right, in that case you can't use FS layout. But you could use e.g.
Maildir++ layout:
mail_location = mbox:~/mail:LAYOUT=maildir++
Then the mailboxes get created like:
~/mail/.sub
~/mail/.sub.box

###namespace private {

This is a broken location setting. It's missing the mbox root directory.
### inbox = yes
### #hidden = yes
### list = no # for v1.1+
###}
It should be list=yes, otherwise mailboxes aren't visible to client.
Probably hidden=yes too so it won't confuse other clients.
###namespace private {
### separator = /
### prefix =
Two namespaces can't have the same prefix. You commented out in the
first one, so that doesn't work. If you wanted Dovecot to somehow
automatically figure out what mailboxes are maildir and what are mboxes,
that's not possible yet.
### location = maildir:/mail/imap/$u:LAYOUT=fs
There's no such thing as $u. I guess meant %u.

I've considered making it an error to return relative home dirs from userdb, but that might break some setups that are actually working right.. Like mine. I don't think this is *bad* since it's, AFAIK, Dovecot only use in homedir to expand %h. Or do I miss another point? Well, I guess there's some confusion about what a home dir is.. With Dovecot the home dir is always what userdb returns as the home dir. Dovecot doesn't care about /etc/passwd at all, unless your userdb is passwd. So Dovecot doesn't know/care that deliver is run as mail user, it doesn't care what /etc/passwd contains for the mail user. Okay, sorry for the confusion. I don't know why I though it was doing some chdir() in a part of mail_location, which has no sense. where as mail_location is /var/mail/vmail/%h. And almost all the mails (except the couples of ones I mentionned) are delivered and still delivered currently. It's probably the large mails that cause the problem. Dovecot writes them to a temporary file under home directory. OK, that would explains everything actually, depending on what you call home directory. :-) If it's the user's home, it really has no sense since nowhere it returns something with /var/spool/postfix. Well, anyway, I changed my setup to return absolute path and it seems to work, the mails got delivered. I really suggest you[1] rather try to reproduce and fix the bug, or really disallow relative path in home directory since it's seems partly-broken, or maybe only for large file (your theory :).
