 Hello,
 
 Our Postfix setup uses multi-instance feature. I would like to enable

 Lets assume, that postfix-instance1 uses LDAP1, and postfix-instance2
 uses LDAP2. How can I use different userdb and passdb databases for
 those sockets?
 

Hi again,

After long googling we have found this link:
http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/multiple-passdbs-and-auth-sockets-td43780.html

Ajusted my configs, and now I'm facing this problem:

2014-09-09T08:57:19.954477+03:00 mail-gw1 dovecot: ktu: Error: doveconf:
Fatal: execvp(/run/dovecot/dovecot/auth) failed: No such file or directory

That is strange, because our dovecot is 2.2.9 from debian
wheezy-backports and auth executable is in /usr/lib/dovecot/auth. Source
lines responsible for this error is in doveconf.c:

$ grep -n execvp src/config/doveconf.c
850:execvp(exec_args[0], exec_args);
851:i_fatal(execvp(%s) failed: %m, exec_args[0]);
$

Somehow exec_args[0] comes not as /usr/lib/dovecot/auth, but
/run/dovecot/dovecot/auth. Not sure how is that possible.

As author states, Dovecot v1.x is better working with multiple auth {}
sections. I'm working with postfix multiple instances and SASL. I would
be glad to see such capability in dovecot v2.x. Maybe my case is 1 out
of the million?

 Right. According to my notes from when I upgraded to 2.x,
 18446744073709551615 means it's not set and that the default_vsz_limit
 will apply, which is 256 MB.

That seems sensible to me. 2^64 bytes is 18446744073709551616 (18.45EB),
so the number shown is (2^64 - 1). As a *limit* for a 64-bit program,
that seems about as close to no limit as you're going to get :)

 
 To avoid the problem the original poster had, I used:
 
  default_vsz_limit = 1 G

outlook 2013

2014-09-09 Thread Bob Miller
I am trying really hard to wrap my head around why people insist on
using this program...

Where I have outlook 2013 users, I have had nothing but problems getting
their mail to work with imap.  my solution has been to set them up with
pop, which works just like it always has.  Or move them to a different
program.

recently, I have a customer who requires multiple machines, all using
outlook 2013, to access the same email address, so pretty much have to
use imap.  if I set up just one of the machines with imap, it works more
less as expected, with hiccups such as mail taking an hour or two or
more to show up.  But shortly after I connect a 2nd machine to the same
account, one or both machines start to go wonky.  Symptoms include
deleted items returning, read messages becoming unread again, and
duplicates being constantly created and deleted.  The last I can confirm
by watching in webmail and refreshing the inbox every few seconds; as
mail shows up and deletes in outlook, so it does in webmail too.

On my test machine connected to the same server, I have evolution,
outlook and thunderbird all connecting to one account with no problems.
Well, outlook hiccups, but it's not unusable.  And I have other users on
the system that share email accounts across a variety of other clients
and platforms, including older versions of outlook.

I have tried checking message rules, there are none; removing all folder
subscriptions; running scanpst, which finds errors even before the
account finishes syncing and ever time I run it after that; I have
looked for viruses/malware; I have confirmed there is no forwarding or
some trickery happening on the server; chkdsk and similar hardware
checks all come up clean, the computers are only a couple of months old;
I have got certs set up with SANs and the CA installed such that outlook
does not error on the certificate; and I have tried just about every
combination of settings that seem relevant.

The one thing that does seem to work, at least for a few minutes or an
hour or two, is deleting and recreating the accounts on one of the
computers.  But the problem inevitably returns in short order.  

Surely people have outlook 2013 connecting via imap to dovecot without
problems; is there some special trick that google is hiding from me?

ACL with Public Namespace

2014-09-09 Thread Bruno Galindro da Costa
I've configured a namespace like this:

namespace avisos {
  type = public
  list = yes
  location = maildir:/var/mail.avisos:INDEXPVT=~/Maildir/avisos
  subscriptions = yes
  prefix = AVISOS.
  mailbox DIVULGA {
auto = subscribe
  }
}

This is the namespace representation in filesystem:

root@imap:~# ls -lha /var/mail.avisos/
total 44K
drwxr-xr-x  7 vmail mail 4,0K Set  9 18:21 .
drwxr-xr-x 16 root  root 4,0K Set  9 17:08 ..
drwxr-xr-x  5 vmail mail 4,0K Set  9 16:49 .DIVULGA
-rw-r--r--  1 root  root   17 Set  9 18:21 dovecot-acl
-rw-r--r--  1 vmail mail0 Set  9 18:11 dovecot-acl-list
-rw-r--r--  1 vmail mail  360 Set  9 18:11 dovecot.mailbox.log
-rw-r--r--  1 vmail mail8 Set  9 18:02 dovecot-uidvalidity
-r--r--r--  1 vmail mail0 Set  9 14:57 dovecot-uidvalidity.540f3f88
-rw-r--r--  1 vmail mail  249 Set  9 18:11 subscriptions


This is the content of dovecot-acl file located at namespace's root level:

root@imap:~# cat /var/mail.avisos/dovecot-acl
authenticated rs

After reload dovecot service, it trows this error message in log:

Sep  9 18:14:13 imap dovecot: imap(user@mydomain): Error: Failed to
autocreate mailbox AVISOS.DIVULGA: Permission denied

So, I've changed the dovecot-acl file to this one and the problem was
solved.

root@imap:~# cat /var/mail.avisos/dovecot-acl
authenticated rsk

But that change created another problem: dovecot-acl file is copied into
AVISOS.DIVULGA. So, the user can create a maildir inside it. This behaviour
is bad because invalid maildirs are created under the filesystem. My
intention is to don't permit the user to create any maildir inside any
location of that namespace. But, I want to make possible to the
administrator to edit the dovecot.conf, insert a new mailbox into namespace
avisos and reload dovecot service to create new maildirs automatically.

How can I solve this problem?

 Hi,

 I'm using mdbox and replication. Due to configuration error
 synchronization was not able to be done last week. Since then
 the problem has been corrected but synchronisation for some mailbox
 always failed in I/O stalled timeout for 600 seconds.

 The link between the two servers is quite slow and multiple sync are
 done in parallel leading to congested link.

 I can't replicate with rsync as change in the mdbox has been done on
 the two servers to get back to a working state.

 What do you think could be done to resynchronized the two dovecot
 server. Another question is what is this timeout ? Timeout of
 communication i.e no data received during 600 seconds ( to me that
 looks unlikely ) or 600 seconds for doing the full sync or 600 seconds
 for one mail sync.

 Thanks for any help.

 Regards,

 Vincent

Hi

After some digging, the problem is this 600 seconds timeout that in my
case is unsuffisant to transfer one big mail. So retry and ..; same
result.. and again and again

I have verify with strace that data is exchange continuously during the
sync between the two host but i can't succed in uploading the file
during that time.

Is there a way to configure this timeout ?

Eventually a manual sync with a  larger timeout  to restore replication
before limiting maximum size in postfix ?

Possibly a feature would be to have a shorter timeout but applied to the
transmission  ( ie. nothing receive during 30 sec = timeout )
or a timeout compuited base on size ( ie. 300 sec for 10 mo for example)

Any help appreciated

I had a much more exciting experience with Outlook for Mac (which is much 
worse…)

Changed from Dovecot 0.9 to 2.2 but changed the folder separator from . to \, 
so that I could have shared folders with dots in the username.
When you do this, it starts creating a new mailbox every time it connects every 
minute, called like Trash 1, Trash 1 1, Trash 1 1 1, Trash 1 1 1.. I got up to 
about 40+ appended folder names. It also does this with INBOX, Sent, etc.

It won’t ever stop doing this, and even if you change the folder separator back 
it still keeps doing it.  Only way to fix is to change the server name which 
causes it to purge the entire local cache and start over (basically a quick 
delete/re-add).


My other favourite issue with Outlook for Mac was it eating messages, they’d 
come in, and disappear.  Spam filtering was off, no rules setup, they just 
disappeared, and got deleted from the server.  Eish.

 started with outlook 2007, then 2010, and now 2013 for the last 2  
 years or 3years (I upgraded to it in beta at first). I haven't had any  
 issues at all, I can delete emails, move emails, ..., and they  
 instantly change in the other programs.
 
 I have several accounts that are used by a variety of different programs
 and devices, as well, but the only program that gives me any problem is
 outlook 2013.  And not quite consistently, on some few machines I have
 seen it work the same as any other client.  This one particular case has
 me quite baffled though.
 
 I just use the normal outlook2013 config options for the account,  
 besides making sure the ssl settings are right.
 
 I think I have only used it on the 2.2 branch though, what dovecot  
 version are you using?
 
 # dovecot --version
 2.2.13
 
 sigh.  At least now I know it should be working, so I will keep
 searching fior a solution...


§-sign in passwords

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hey users,

I've got a constellation with dovecot, postfix, froxlor and roundcube.

My problem is, when a user has got a paragraph sign in his password,
every mail client tells him, that he entered a wrong password. The log
says as usually password mismatch. did anyone else fixed this
problem already?

Hope you can help me :)

non-ASCII characters are only supported in the AUTHENTICATE command.   
My guess is that your MUA is trying to send those characters via the  
LOGIN command.
