Hi! I am experiencing troubles concerning the inheritance of the setgid bit if a new mailbox is created with dovecot-lda. If it is created with dovecot/imap, everything works fine. dovecot-lda is called from postfix like this: ---------- mailbox_command = /usr/local/sbin/postfix-lda.sh ---------- logger -p mail.info -t postfix-lda "H: $HOME, S: $SENDER, R: $RECIPIENT, U: $(umask), id:

Hi! Is there a way to initialize global variables with default values in sieve_before scripts that can be used in the sieve_default script or in user scripts? I've tried the following code but this doesn't work.. before.d/10-set-defaults.sieve: -------------------- 8< -------------------- require ["variables", "include"]; require "vnd.dovecot.debug"; set

Hi! I'm experiencing strange performance problems after upgrading to samba 3.2.8 from 3.0.30. For all users except smbadmin (who has administrative rights), read performance is _very_ bad. Looking at the read-requests using filemon and wireshark, I found out that for those users, every read is handled transparently (unbuffered) over the net. (I.e. a 2 byte read-request of the application

Hi! I've been using shared mailbox trees using maildir, unix permissions and separate namespaces per shared tree since dovecot 1.0. However now that I've upgraded to 1.2.8, I cannot create subfolders anymore. The server responds with "NO Invalid mailbox name: test/testsub". The hierarchy separator for the namespaces is / because I am mixing maildir and mbox namespaces and

Hi! Is it possible to do something like "post-login scripting" to detect and set a per-user custom mail location for dovecot LDA delivery? I tried to use a wrapper-script around dovecot-lda that sets the environment variables MAIL="..." and USERDB_KEYS="MAIL" just like overriding userdb fields may be done using imap postlogin scripts, but unfortunately this

Hi! I'm using procmail to filter my email. (I have to use it because of various features that are not supported by sieve.) However, I'd like to deliver mail to my mboxes using dovecots deliver program in order to update index files and speed up mbox access. Using "| $DELIVER -m <mboxname>" in my procmail receipes, everything works fine, except that the envelope sender

Hi! I am getting "Cached message size smaller than expected" errors since dovecot-2.1.x. Until now, I thought that those errors don't do any harm, I assumed that the cache will just be rebuilt after the error had been detected. However, since dovecot 2.2.x (I tried 2.2.7 and 2.2.10), the errors sometimes seem to actually cause mail access to fail. With dovecot-2.1.1, only the

Hi! In my samba controlled domain, most users are stored in an LDAP directory. The Unix boxes use nss_ldap but they also have a few local users (mostly system-users) whose user-ids are not synchronized. I've read the documentation about idmap_nss but I'm still not sure if this is needed for my setup. Will using idmap_nss in addition to idmap_ldap result in any benefit (e.g. when mapping

I'm running a mirror of several repositories that are fetched using separate rsync runs. Since some of those repositories are hosting related files, I'm using the hardlink utility[1] in order to save disk space. However, I've noticed an issue that may lead to potential file metadata inconsistencies when using hardlink. Consider the following scenario: - two repositories (rep_a and

Hi! Does the duplicate sieve plugin do any locking to avoid duplicate parallel delivery of the same message? I sometimes experience duplicate mail delivery of messages with the same message-id, despite the use of a sieve duplicate filter. According to the log files, those messages are delivered in the same second by two parallel dovecot-lda processes. (Duplicate filtering works fine in all other

Hi! Yesterday, after migrating to a new server, I accidentally started an identically configured smbd and nmbd on the old machine. Since then, there are two netbios entries, even though the first host (192.168.60.5) is down since yesterday: # nmblookup -U localhost -R 'SAMBA' querying SAMBA on 127.0.0.1 192.168.60.5 SAMBA<00> 192.168.60.3 SAMBA<00> I've already tried to

Hi! Since upgrade to Samba 3.6.9, I am experiencing problems concerning winbind idmapping. I am using an LDAP directory with RFC 2307 accounts and sambaSamAccount sambaSID entries for each local domain user. SIDs for other domains should be stored in sambaIdmapEntry objects in a separate LDAP tree. The problem is that winbind doesn't seem to map SIDs from the local domain to unix IDs.

Hi! Since upgrading to 2.1.6, setting namespaces via environment variables using a imap-postlogin-script *sometimes* doesn't work. Sometimes, the prefix of a namespace isn't set correctly, but is set to an empty string, which leads to the following error: namespace configuration error: Duplicate namespace prefix: "" However, the environment is set correctly, the error seems to

Hi! With dovecot 1.x, I was using a post-login script to dynamically add shared mailboxes using NAMESPACE_X.. environment variables, based on filesystem permissions: After login, the post-login script was executed with user permissions (mail_drop_priv_before_exec=yes). It added all subdirectories of "/var/spool/mail/Shared" as namespaces for which the user had write permissions. E.g.:

Hi! I'd like to provide shared mailboxes with maildir that should appear like 'Shared/<mailboxname>' to the clients. Using the namespace configuration below, everything works fine, exept one thing: Mail clients (only tested with Thunderbird) won't allow to put mails directly in 'Shared/mailboxname' (the folder it is greyed out). You currently have to create

Hi! I'd like to use deliver (dovecot-1.2.10) as LDA to deliver mails to my local users on my postfix-system. However, deliver tries to copy the filesystem permissions of the mail-spool-files to the user's index files, which doesn't work, since the files in /var/mail/ belong to the group 'mail'.

Hi! Is it possible to get all basic userdb information from the passwd userdb and add a second userdb of type checkpassword that only sets some additional extra fields like namespaces? I tried the following setup: -------------------- 8< -------------------- userdb { driver = passwd result_success = continue-ok } userdb { driver = checkpassword args = /usr/local/sbin/dovecot-userdb.py

Hi! I am using Unix groups to control access to shared mailboxes. This works fine as long as files are not moved between mailboxes that are owned by different groups. The move operation doesn't change group ownership of the mail. Is there a way to force dovecot to e.g. inherit the ownership from the parent folder, not only for new messages bot also for messages moved from one folder to

Hi! I've noticed that openssh always does a do_setpag() if compiled with AFS-support no matter which authentication method is used. Maybe I'm missing something but shouldn't it only get a pag, if AFS-token-passing is used? If password authentication is used, an AFS-pam-module (or the authenticate function on AIX) will do the job, otherwise, no token can be obtained and therefore no
