A similar issue was mentioned and solved a little later on the mailing
list, so that is why I forgot about this one. That involved Sendmail though:

http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2014-January/094385.html



If you read further down that thread, you'll see that both Miquel van 
Smoorenburg and Steffen Kaiser pointed out that this solution only works 
in the case where there is one and only one recipient.  So it's not a 
general solution.


Because of that, I am using dovecot LDA instead of LMTP until I can write 
a custom sendmail ruleset to pass +detail to LMTP.  Here's my sendmail LDA 
configuration ($h contains the detail part of the ID):


FEATURE(`local_procmail', `/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda', 
`dovecot-lda -a $u+$h -d $u')

 Hi All,

 I can't get directory proxying of pop3 and imap working.  The
 director stuff appears to be OK - see below.   The ldap
 authentication is working on the backend mail server.  I just get
 connection refused when I telnet to the proxy on the pop3 and imap

 despite the lines in the config below.  I am not sure what to do
from
 here as nothing is showing up in the logs.   Some assistance would

When a mail is read via IMAP, the plugins should handle the mail in the reverse

should decrypt it.

But it seems, that they work the other way around. The scrambler istream gets

In your previous mail you mentioned you're using v2.1.17. Have you tried with 
v2.2.10? I think this is already fixed (at least I've successfully used zlib +

Thanks for the fast reply. Yes, I'm using v2.1.17. If this is a bug in 
2.1, is there a workaround existing?


I'm already pushing the admin to upgrade to 2.2, but I don't know is 
this is happening soon ;-)

Ok, so what are you trying to achieve by installing in a different
destination? I wouldn't call myself a libtool/autotools wizard and I am
pretty much as puzzled by this behavior as you are. Obviously, I have
never tried this before myself, and I am wondering why anyone would want

I see no obvious problems in your configuration. Do the logs say
anything interesting (set mail_debug=yes)? Your symptoms suggest that
Roundcube is not activating the uploaded script for some reason. That is
when the symbolic link is updated.

You could sniff the protocol exchange between Roundcube and Dovecot on
port 4190 (without TLS obviously). Roundcube should issue the SETACTIVE
command.

[Dovecot] Order of istream and ostream chains

[Philipp Brüll]

Hi,

I'm creating a scrambler plugin, that adds an istream and an ostream to 
the stream-chain for the mail input/output. It works well until the zlib 
plugin is added to the configuration. The scrambler should run before 
the zlib and encrypt the mail before it's compressed. Since, the plugin 
is named lib18_scrambler_... (and the other lib20_zlib), that works 
well when a mail is received.


When a mail is read via IMAP, the plugins should handle the mail in the 
reverse order. So first, the zlib should decompress it and afterwards 
the scrambler should decrypt it.


But it seems, that they work the other way around. The scrambler istream 
gets compressed data as input. It's hooked in the chain of istream as 
the following...


static int scrambler_istream_opened(struct mail *_mail, struct istream 
**stream) {

struct mail_private *mail = (struct mail_private *)_mail;
union mail_module_context *mmail = SCRAMBLER_MAIL_CONTEXT(mail);
struct istream *input, *inputs[2];

input = *stream;
*stream = scrambler_istream_create(input);
i_stream_unref(&input);

return mmail->super.istream_opened(_mail, stream);
}

static void scrambler_mail_allocated(struct mail *_mail) {
struct mail_private *mail = (struct mail_private *)_mail;
struct mail_vfuncs *v = mail->vlast;
union mail_module_context *mmail;

mmail = p_new(mail->pool, union mail_module_context, 1);
mmail->super = *v;
mail->vlast = &mmail->super;

v->istream_opened = scrambler_istream_opened;

MODULE_CONTEXT_SET_SELF(mail, scrambler_mail_module, mmail);
}

How can I reverse the order of istreams? Should I use another hook or vfuns?

I'm stuck in the problem for a while now, so any help would be very welcome.

Best regards,
Philipp

Hey,

I have some issues with dovecot, because the public folder won't show up in
Mail accounts.
Dovecot is installed via zentyal 3.3.

I tried several settings, but I dont get it running.

What I tried is adding this to my dovecot.conf file

# User's private mail location
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir

# When creating any namespaces, you must also have a private namespace:
namespace {
  type = private
  separator = /
  prefix =
  #location defaults to mail_location.
  inbox = yes
}

namespace {
  type = public
  separator = /
  prefix = Public/
  location = maildir:/var/vmail/public
  subscriptions = no
}

But nothing happened. I tried it with

# Umask for shared folders
umask = 0007

with 

subscriptions = yes

tried creating the folder first like this

touch /var/vmail/public/dovecot-shared
chown -R ebox /var/vmail/public
find /var/vmail/public -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 2770 
find /var/vmail/public -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 660

But i had no success. Any Ideas how to get it running?

Here is my dovecot -n output

[Dovecot] Some LDA questions!

[Фадеев Виталий Львович]

 Hi there!
I have been setuped exim and dovecot.
Exim uses dovecot-lda to deliver mails to mailbox.

Some configurations of exim:

dovecot_virtual_delivery:
  driver = pipe
  command = /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $local_part@$domain -f 
$sender_address
  message_prefix =
  message_suffix =
  delivery_date_add
  envelope_to_add
  return_path_add
  log_output
  user = vmail
  group = vmail
  #mode = 0660
  temp_errors = 64 : 69 : 70: 71 : 72 : 73 : 74 : 75 : 78

dovecot does mysql lookups of users, passwords. 
All works, but in headers of example message:

Return-path: <"vita...@bbb.com"@host.aaa.com>
Envelope-to: vita...@bbb.com
Delivery-date: Tue, 11 Feb 2014 03:59:17 -0600

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Sender: "vita...@bbb.com"@host.aaa.com
Test headers
host.aaa.com is a hostname that run dovecot and exim.
bbb.com is a virtual domain located in mysql db.
I do not want to show host.aaa.com in headers. How can i disable this so 
headers looks like this:
Return-path: 
Which configuration i need to show you?

The problem I am facing is I can find no documentation about what 
lmtp_save_to_detail_mailbox actually causes lmtp to actually do. 
Searching the wiki refers to it only in the LMTP page.


How should the detail of the address be formatted to specify a 
subdirectory - can it be specified even? Should I be using it?


+Sent@...
+users..SentNow@...
+Archive.2013-01@...

I think, you must use mUTF7 for non-ASCII characters, you cannot use 
spaces and @ and many other characters impose problems. Also, which 
hierarchie separator you need to use, depends a little, just try with 
dots and the configured separator.


Also, for testing I advice to enable lda_mailbox_autocreate, in order 
to see when you did wrong and can try another spelling.


Thanks - just what I needed to know.

I was about to set up an experiement, but I have to get postfix setup 
first (as a vehicle for delivering mail to lmtp) and there are aspects 
of that that I haven't got nailed yet.




Unfortunately my reading of the fileinto extension is that the 
destination can only be a literal string and not a "computed" value 
based on the date.


that's not the problem with the variables extension. See
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Pigeonhole/Sieve/Examples
and search for

fileinto "users/${name}";



Brilliant - even better.  I had searched for quite some time looking for 
that and hadn't found it.


Thanks
