You understand correctly. The same applies to SPECIAL-USE. I'm afraid
most clients do not support it. Some already do, e.g. Roundcube 1.1.

I'm trying to get my head around this - the special_use flag is given
out to an IMAP client as a _hint_ of where certain messages belong?  If
that's correct, what would be the purpose of having two (or more) such
hints for e.g. \Sent ?

I wasn't aware of the virtual plugin, thanks.  Like you say, this looks
like defining one virtual mailbox "Sent" to cover all of the various

Since you're redirecting to a port on the same host, the following is
perhaps more correct:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 30143 -j REDIRECT --to-port 143

The operational word being "perhaps". My approach will break if the
server does any forwarding, yours will break if dovecot listens only on
a secondary IP address, or at least that's what the manpage I grabbed
off a CentOS 6 says:
That REDIRECT rule can definitely not be used in that exact form if the 
machine does forwarding. It will make anyone trying to reach port x 
on any destination arrive at this IMAP server, unless you add a 
condition such as -d 192.168.x.x
Indeed, if the machine is also a router and dovecot only listens on a 
specific IP address then you would have to use DNAT to specify the 
destination IP address and port.
Perhaps the use of the word "correct" was wrong, REDIRECT is just 
typically used in such cases where the machine is anyway not a router so 
it's kind of a more readable way to say "redirect this traffic from this 
machine itself to this machine itself", although REDIRECT is generally 
intended to be used on a router to force traffic _not_ destined for this 
machine to go to this machine, e.g. setting up a transparent proxy.


So you can say:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d 192.168.1.11 --dport 30143 -j 
REDIRECT --to-port 143

Or:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d 192.168.1.11 --dport 30143 -j 
DNAT --to-destination xx.xx.xx.xx:143


The latter redirects traffic destined to a specific IP address and port, 
192.168.1.11:30143, to a specific IP address and port (presumably on the 
same host, or not..).






REDIRECT
[...] It redirects the packet to the machine itself by changing the

You mean not people, but mail clients. There are plugins for roundcube, 
thunderbird ( ugly) kontact.  Folders are "annotated" as: mail, contacts, 
calendar etc. You can associate each folder with an annotation, as, let say, a 
label. But your client need to read that annotation.

In fact as I know Roundcube can do a "translation" of folder names ( you can 
asign "Sent Mails" as "Gesendete Elemente" in it's config) but if you want a 
more complex solution I think metadata is the right (and heavy) way.

Re: OS X 10.6 Server - Dovecot Issue

Quoth Ian Baker (23 Aug 2014, 18:17):

I've just taken over support for an OS X Server (v10.6.8) box, and am 
a bit new at Postfix & Dovecot.


[...]


And here is what a bounce looks like

Aug 22 07:29:28 mail postfix/local[93916]: error: od[getpwnam_ext]: No

dsn=5.1.1, status=bounced (user unknown)


This looks familiar to me.

I've seen this happen when running Snow Leopard server as well, and 
recall tracing this back to Time Machine.


IIRC, Time Machine suspends directory services briefly while running.  
My wild guess is that this is probably by design, in order to create 
consistent database snapshots.  And since Time Machine runs quite often 
(in its default configuration), that doesn't do much good to services 
relying on permanent availability of AAA services.


If you're running Time Machine, try disabling it.  You can alter its 
schedule by hand, or you can use utilities like 
 to coax it into a a 
more suitable (less disruptive) schedule.

IMAP Proxying to an Exchange Server

2014-08-25 Thread Ralf Hildebrandt 
We're proxying IMAP to an Exchange server. One of my colleagues is
getting this when trying to save a message as "Draft" OR as "Sent
items":

Aug 25 13:45:41 mproxy dovecot: imap(froemmel): Error: 
imapc(exchange-imap.charite.de:993): Command '7 APPEND "Entw&APw-rfe" (\Draft) 
{232572}' timed out, disconnecting

How can I debug this further? I cannot see which commands are sent by
Thunderbird...

sadly no

postfix does and in case of all-inet it spreads even the usage
while a localhost source is preferred and only if that is not
available a fallback to a inet sql server happens

in case of postfix "hosts = inet:10.111.5.1X inet:10.111.5.1Y"
would work as expected, no idea why you can configure different
sql host in dovecot when no failover happens

dict SQL : HA / RR load-balancing ?

2014-08-25 Thread Florent Bautista 

Hi everyone,

I am using Dovecot 2.2 with dict SQL.

My config is using :

connect = host=10.111.5.1X host=10.111.5.1Y host=10.111.5.1Z dbname=mail 
user=quota_updater password=


But when an SQL server is down, I have these messages in logs :

dict: Error: mysql(10.111.5.1Y): Connect failed to database (mail): 
Can't connect to MySQL server on '10.111.5.1Y' (111) - waiting for 125 
seconds before retry


Does Dovecot support HA / RR load-balancing in dict SQL, as in 
passdb/userdb ?


Thank you.
