similar to: Proxying LMTP - Auth PASS lookup failed

Hi all, I have a setup of some nodes running Dovecot 2.0.13 and Postfix 2.5.6 with storage in NFS and authentication happening with PAM. Poking around in the wiki, I tried out different possibilities but now I am stuck -- and are hoping for your (enlightening) comments and tips. My planned setup for IMAP and LMTP is like this: IMAP ==== 1. A loadbalancer directs new sessions to a

How exactly is LMTP proxying supposed to work? According to the example on http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/Proxy I'm only seeing "proxy" in the password_query statements. But LMTP never sends a password. IMAP Proxying is working OK: Sep 24 12:51:09 imap-login: Info: proxy(ralf.hildebrandt at charite.de): started proxying to dovecot.charite.de:993:

I have successfully set up the master user on the destination server (2.0.11) and tests have worked. now I'm working on the proxy Before I had the proxy just forward everything to the backend and had the destination server do the authentication. My authentication is done via LDAP but not really sure how to append the master user and password to the users credentials after authentication is

Hi, I'm attempting to proxy lmtp using director to hash to the same backend as pop3/imap. My pop3/imap users are of the form: username and my lmtp users are of the form: <username at domain> Where domain is fairly redundant but does carry some useful information. Now, I can proxy lmtp using user=%{username} and destuser=%{orig_user}, and this all appears to work correctly.

I'm trying to follow the instructions for configuring Dovecot LMTP with postfix for virtual domains but whenever mail arrives, in /var/log/maillog, I see Sep 23 16:01:20 mybox postfix/pipe[572]: 999C83206C6: to=< user at mytest.domain.com>, relay=dovecot, delay=0.08, delays=0.04/0.01/0/0.03, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure.

Hi all, We have Exim using Dovecot for authentication. Dovecot, in turn, consults a custom internal server that answers Dovecot?s userdb queries. When IMAP connections arrive, for some users we want to forward those connections--without authentication--to an external IMAP server. For these users, we return ?proxy_maybe? and ?nopassword? in the authn response from our userdb server. This tells

We have a few dovecot servers all pointing to the same mail location (an NFS mount on a NAS drive). This could lead to a possible bottleneck eventually and we were wondering if it's possible to have dovecot direct x number of users to one message store location while others get their mail on a different mount?

I've recently set up a director proxy environment on my test servers, with the intention of deploying on our cluster soon. One thing I found confusing in the proxying documentation [1] was the first bit about their being two ways to do the authentication...either you have the proxy forward the auth to the real server for authentication, or you have the proxy authenticate it and then login

Hi, I'm setting up the directors for proxying pop3/imap/lmtp/sieve. pop3/imap/lmtp proxying work fine, but sieve not working. The error messages in maillog look not using proxying but local passdb. Error message: Apr 03 12:09:25 managesieve-login: Info: Aborted login (no auth attempts in 0 secs): user=<>, rip=10.1.1.4, lip=10.1.1.201, session=<+SIcx4wvRQAKAQEE> sql in

Stephan, Imap/pop shows proxying in mail log, but managesieve differs.

I'm using roundcube webmail managesieve plugin. Webmail can login managesieve to a specific mailstore successfully without proxying. Because I have mutiple mailstores, I have to use proxying to redirect the correct mailstores just as imap/pop3. ???? Stephan Bosch ????? 2016-04-03 22:50 ???? Hawk Chen; dovecot ???

How do I configure dovecot-2.0.x to present a client SSL certificate when proxying? If dovecot on server1.example.com has: passdb { driver = static args = proxy=y host=server2.example.com nopassword=y ssl=yes } and dovecot on server2.example.com has: ssl_verify_client_cert = yes auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes then when a client connects to server1 and authenticates, a connection is

Hello- Sorry if this is a noob question, but I cant seem to get my password_query to work with dovecot + mysql. Im using 'Password verification by SQL server' at: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/SQL trying to modify it to work with my encrypted passwords in the DB. Im using the following which isnt working: password_query = SELECT NULL AS password, \ 'Y' as

I just noticed this error in my logs: director: Error: doveadm not compatible with this server (mixed old and new binaries?) director: Error: director(10.161.192.28:541/right): Wrong protocol in socket (director-doveadm vs director) The first error I removed by changing director_doveadm_port = 541 to director_doveadm_port = 542 Not really sure why that fixed it. The second error I

Hi! I have a few questions regarding Dovecot proxy: 1. 1.1 If I understand correctly, setting 'nopassword' in the proxy passdb file, authentication is completely up to the destination host. Setting 'nopassword' in no way means the proxy becomes an open relay. Is this correct? 1.2 Are there any security implications when using 'nopassword' on the proxy? 2. 2.1 I would

We upgraded our two dovecot directors from v2.0.14 to dovecot-ee 2.1.10.3 this week, and after that mail seems to be flowing a lot slower than before. The backend mailstores are untouched, on v2.0.14 still. After the upgrade we've been hitting process_limit for lmtp a lot, and we're struggeling with large queues in the incoming mailservers that are using LMTP virtual transport towards our

Hi, we are getting some core dumps with signal 6 in ltmp on a dovecot director proxy server, like this: Dec 5 14:31:51 sproxy1 dovecot: lmtp(29999): Panic: file lmtp-proxy.c: line 376 (lmtp_proxy_output_timeout): assertion failed: (proxy->data_input->eof) Dec 5 14:31:51 sproxy1 dovecot: lmtp(29999): Error: Raw backtrace: /usr/lib64/dovecot/libdovecot.so.0() [0x363323d99a] ->

Hello, Following Jan-Frode's advise I am trying this configuration: {postfix} ---lmtp---> {director} ---lmtp---> {dovecot} so I have two dovecot instances for director/proxy and lmtp delivery on ports 1024 and 24 respectively. whilst for imap connections I can specify a pool of imap backend servers via 'director_mail_servers' it seems is not possible with lmtp.

Is it possible to have dovecot 2.0.8 using LMTP run a shell script each time it delivers a message to a users mailbox? I see there's an "execute = script /path/to/script" but when i added it to lmtp service in 10-master.conf, it didnt do anything and stopped delivering mail altogether service lmtp { executable = script /usr/local/bin/test.sh u% unix_listener

I was reading "conf.d/10-director.conf" and it mentions Dovecot proxy. I've been using perdition in the past for my pop/imap proxying needs and wasn't sure if Director could also use perdition or if it only works with Dovecots proxying. Thanks!
